Chapter 199 Catching a Big Fish
“This is…” Yang Yu didn’t recognize Jiang Zhengxiao and Zhou Qing, and looked at Lu Mingzheng.
Lu Mingzheng explained, "These two are Jiang Wen's parents, and also my second brother-in-law and sister-in-law."
Yang Yu immediately became respectful and answered seriously.
"You two need not worry. We have already investigated and confirmed that your son, Jiang Wen, was indeed abducted by a human trafficking organization that has been engaged in human trafficking for a long time."
But don't worry, our people have already followed them. Your son is under our surveillance and will be safe.
However, recently, several provinces and cities in southern China have seen a series of missing persons cases, including not only women and children, but also many young men.
However, the families of these men were not vigilant enough; they only realized these young men, who had gone to work in other places, had been missing for quite some time before they reported them missing to the police. This greatly increased the difficulty of our investigation.
Yesterday, thanks to Jiang Wen's connections, we finally got a lead. Our director's idea is to take this opportunity to launch a joint operation involving several provinces to completely destroy these criminals' hideout.
"Can you guarantee Jiang Wen's safety?" Jiang Ruzhen interjected.
Yang Yu turned to look at Jiang Ruzhen, and was once again stunned by her stunning beauty. But when he caught a glimpse of his boss's gloomy eyes out of the corner of his eye, he immediately snapped back to reality.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I guarantee with my life that we will bring Jiang Wen back to you safe and sound."
"Hmph!" Lu Mingzheng snorted heavily. "How much is your head worth?"
Yang Yu was resentful. Back then, in their five-man combat team, whose head wasn't hanging high on the lists of those foreign intelligence organizations?
If we compare it to the boss's head, which costs millions, they definitely can't compete, but a few hundred thousand is definitely worth it.
“I request to participate in your operation personally,” Jiang Ruzhen suddenly demanded.
"What? That won't do. You're just an ordinary citizen; you can't participate in our arrest operation..."
Yang Yu's first reaction was to refuse. Even though Jiang Ruzhen wasn't the boss's woman, he couldn't bear to let such a beautiful woman take the risk; he would feel uneasy.
But before he could finish speaking, Lu Mingzheng interrupted him.
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Lu Mingzheng didn’t dare to underestimate Jiang Ruzhen.
Others may not know her strength, but he knows it perfectly well.
Her trump card might be helpful; at the very least, she'll be able to protect herself.
Yang Yu was shocked and completely bewildered when he heard his boss's words.
The eldest brother finally managed to marry a wife, but instead of cherishing her, he took her out on an adventure.
Years have passed, and this man is still the same clueless, unromantic boss who even puts his sister-in-law in danger.
He said he didn't understand at all, but he was used to obeying his boss's orders.
After explaining the details, Yang Yu took Jiang Zhengxiao and his wife into the station to wait for news without further ado.
He, Lu Mingzheng, and Jiang Ruzhen got into a car and followed the investigation route.
The journey was smooth and uneventful, with no unexpected incidents occurring.
We only got the latest news after tracking it all the way to Yunnan Province.
This group only engaged in human trafficking as a side business; their biggest business was actually smuggling.
This alarmed even those above.
It is said that there are even several national treasures inside that are strictly prohibited from being privately collected by the state and are of great importance to the fate of the nation.
This batch of important smuggled national treasures has crossed the border and entered Myanmar.
Then their people can't bring the people back at the border. The country needs to find out where they are in Myanmar and see if they can rescue the national treasures.
Now even Lu Mingzheng was unsure whether they should follow.
Faced with national interests, Jiang Ruzhen had no right to object.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm going too."
Lu Mingzheng was having a headache. He could guarantee Jiang Ruzhen's absolute safety in China, but he really couldn't guarantee it abroad.
However, Jiang Ruzhen was adamant in her stance and negotiated with those above her. If they did not agree to her participation, then as Jiang Wen's relative, she would not agree to let him take the risk.
There was no other way, and in the end, the higher-ups compromised and agreed to Jiang Ruzhen's request.
However, they entered Myanmar in two groups. The first group of five special operations personnel was responsible for rescuing the hostages and seizing the opportunity to retrieve the national treasures, while the second group, led by Lu Mingzheng, consisted of two people and was responsible for protecting Jiang Ruzhen's safety.
Jiang Ruzhen, fully armed by the worried Lu Mingzheng, walked through the primeval forest without any fear.
Her thinking was simple: she believed that Lu Mingzheng and the country's soldiers would protect her safety, while she had to ensure Jiang Wen's safety.
If something happens to Jiang Wen, his second brother and sister-in-law will go crazy.
The two groups were about one kilometer apart when they entered Myanmar.
The special forces soldiers are really strong; they tracked the enemy all the way without being detected.
Jiang Ruzhen witnessed the tacit cooperation between the national special forces members and also experienced the hardships and dangers they faced during their missions.
Putting aside other safety hazards, the spiders, snakes, and other venomous creatures that constantly appear in this primeval forest alone could drive her crazy.
After the first group of men entered the enemy's lair, the four of them lay in wait outside.
Half an hour passed quietly, and not a sound came out from inside. Jiang Ruzhen was getting a little anxious.
After waiting another ten minutes, Jiang Ruzhen felt as if more than forty years had passed.
The key was that she was hiding in the grass with the special forces, and many strange insects crawled in front of her, making her feel uncomfortable and giving her goosebumps.
Lu Mingzheng pressed her face against his chest and tried his best to kill the insects that threatened her life, but Jiang Ruzhen still felt that every second was like an eternity.
Her nerves were taut, and Lu Mingzheng could tell that forty minutes was probably the limit of what Jiang Ruzhen could endure.
Fortunately, there was movement ahead.
A group of five people surrounded Jiang Wen and rushed out. Jiang Ruzhen immediately breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to wave to them.
"here....."
Lu Mingzheng tried to stop them, but it was too late. At a 45-degree angle to their side, someone shouted a Burmese phrase.
"Damn it, get out of here! They've spotted us."
Lu Mingzheng grabbed Jiang Ruzhen and ran, while the two special forces soldiers surrounded them.
After several struggles, they successfully killed the man, but unexpectedly, the man used his last bit of strength to pull a hidden rope before he died.
A series of clear, ringing bells rang out.
This completely alarmed the remaining members of their stronghold.
Dozens of masked men wielding guns suddenly appeared from all directions and surrounded Jiang Ruzhen.
The special forces personnel in the previous team were clearly prepared, each performing their duties as they fought and retreated.
Incidentally, it also protects Jiang Ruzhen's people, making their retreat smoother.
During her escape, Jiang Ruzhen couldn't help but look back.
The special forces personnel were about to be surrounded, but they remained calm and fought back, risking their lives to protect Jiang Wen in the middle.
Jiang Ruzhen's eyes were filled with tears, and she bit her lip tightly, deeply regretting her rash behavior.
This feeling of guilt gradually intensified until she saw a special forces soldier get shot, at which point she completely broke down.
Jiang Ruzhen stopped running and instead looked at the two special forces soldiers beside her with a serious expression.
"Go and save them, you don't need to protect me."
Both of them wore masks, so their expressions were not visible, but they both shook their heads firmly at the same time.
"A soldier's duty is always to prioritize the protection of the country and its people."
Jiang Ruzhen was speechless for a moment, but at the same time she made up her mind.
"Okay, I'll go over there."
Before the others could react, she ran towards the special forces soldiers ahead.
