They kept driving around the city, and the military vehicles all looked exactly the same, which created the illusion that there were many military vehicles patrolling the city.
On the outskirts of the city, not far from the county brick kiln, in a desolate wasteland overgrown with weeds, stands a low-lying hut.
This place used to be a forest farm, and the hut was a resting place for the forest rangers.
Later, the land was bought by a brickyard as a reserve resource for soil extraction.
Two figures crept out of the brickyard. Seeing that no one was paying attention, they lowered their profiles and, using the waist-high weeds for cover, quietly approached the hut.
After observing their surroundings warily once again, one of them knocked on the dilapidated wooden door.
A deep voice came from inside.
"who?"
"Open the door, it's me."
The wooden door creaked open, and the two quickly slipped inside.
The person inside the room was He Shuang, who had kidnapped Liu Ye.
The two people who entered were Gao Shaoxiong, the director of the brick kiln, and his driver, Lü Jin.
On a wooden chair nearby, Liu Ye was tightly bound, a rag stuffed in her mouth, her face showing unease, her eyes filled with terror.
It turns out that after He Shuang escaped, he didn't dare go home for fear that his father would find out. He only secretly met with his mother once, hoping to get some money from her so he could escape to another place.
However, his mother was not in charge of the household and didn't have much money. Even if she gave him all of it, it would only be enough for him for a short period of time and wouldn't solve the problem at all.
Just as he was wandering around aimlessly, not knowing what to do, he met Lu Jin, Gao Shaoxiong's driver, in a small tavern.
This Lü Jin used to hang out with Zheng Laohei, but later he followed Gao Shaoxiong and stopped getting involved in Zheng Laohei's affairs.
The two already knew each other, and after a few drinks, He Shuang opened up about her feelings.
The last time Xiao Weiguo and Gao Shaoxiong met by the brick factory, they had an argument. Lü Jin, as the driver, was present, but he didn't get out of the car at the time.
He overheard Gao Shaoxiong saying that Xiao Weiguo coveted their brick kiln, and that this had created a grudge between the two.
Now I hear that He Shuang also has a grudge against Xiao Weiguo.
Lu Jin then had an idea. After having dinner with He Shuang, he took him to Gao Shaoxiong's place.
The three hit it off immediately and devised a plan on the spot to kidnap Xiao Weiguo's family, force him to hand over a large sum of money, and cause his Panlong Clothing to go bankrupt.
