Holding back the huge grief, Kang Shaonan analyzed the case with Chief Yang at the police station. Because of his wife's special identity, Kang Shaonan received an order from his superiors not long after Yu Xiao disappeared, to cooperate with Chief Yang to capture the drug lord Fu Zihao.
Fu Zihao's call finally came.
"Fu Zihao, where is my wife?"
"Haha! Captain Kang, you two are really affectionate to each other! You must have missed her after not seeing her for a few days, right?" Fu Zihao on the other end laughed loudly, with pride and arrogance.
"If you have any grudge against me, come at me. What's the big deal about catching a woman?" Kang Shaonan suppressed his rage and his fists clenched so hard that they made a rattling sound.
"Oh, you feel bad, don't you? I feel bad too. Look at her, she's a girl in her twenties, surrounded by grown men all day long. Her small body can't handle it..."
"You fucking bastard!" Kang Shaonan punched the wall angrily, his chest filled with rage.
"Haha! Captain Kang, don't be so angry. She's a woman, it doesn't matter who uses her, right?" Fu Zihao laughed even more complacently on the phone as he listened to Kang Shaonan's scolding.
"What the hell do you want?" Kang Shaonan asked through gritted teeth, suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Haha, what do you want? That's a great question! I want my brother's life, can you give it back to me?"
"Okay! Don't you just want revenge on me? I'll return it to you! But you have to ensure the safety of my wife!"
"That's great! You are worthy of being a soldier! Since you are eager to save your wife, I will give you a chance!"
"How do I know that my wife is really in your hands?"
"Haha, OK! Wait a minute!" The call was disconnected for a few seconds, and then a weak voice came from the phone: "Kang Shaonan, I hate you..."
The hand holding the phone trembled violently.
Yes! That's her voice! She's alive! Really alive!
"Captain Kang, you must go to the National Cotton Mill in the west of the city right now. I'll give you twenty minutes and I'll call you then! Remember, if there's one more person, your wife will be dead!" After Fu Zihao finished speaking, he quickly hung up the phone.
Kang Shaonan quickly turned his head and looked at Director Yang next to him: "How is it?"
Director Yang shook his head: "The time was too short, and we couldn't track it down!"
Kang Shaonan said nothing, but stood up and strode towards the door. Director Yang called out to him, "Shaonan, be careful!"
Kang Shaonan nodded and left without looking back.
Director Yang turned around and waved to his subordinates, ordering them to proceed according to the original plan. All the police officers who were monitoring the Fu criminal gang were to be dispatched together. Once they received the news that Kang Shaonan had successfully rescued his wife, they were to immediately wipe out the Fu Group.
The car sped along the road. There was a whirring sound in his ears. Kang Shaonan looked ahead with bloodshot eyes, wishing he could step on the accelerator to the bottom. His wife's faint words kept echoing in his ears: Kang Shaonan, I hate you...
Hate him? She was right! Everything was caused by him!
He really regretted marrying her so domineeringly and shouldn't have let her be called Kang Shaonan's wife in the name of love. If that were the case, she wouldn't have been kidnapped and fallen into a desperate and helpless situation. Everything was his fault!
Kang Shaonan managed to shorten the journey by half after more than 40 minutes. When the car stopped at the gate of the National Cotton Factory, his cell phone rang. Kang Shaonan picked it up immediately: "I'm here! Where are we going now?"
"That's right! This soldier is a soldier! Next stop, the waste recycling station in the east of the city! Well, I'll give you a little more time this time, about 40 minutes! Haha..."
"Fu Zihao..." Before Kang Shaonan could say anything, the call was hung up. When he called again, the phone was turned off.
"Bang!" He raised his fist and hit the steering wheel hard. After two seconds of silence, he quickly started the car, turned around on the spot, and drove towards the east of the city.
As if deliberately grinding Kang Shaonan's patience, from ten o'clock in the morning to eight o'clock in the afternoon, Kang Shaonan circled the city again and again, but Fu Zihao refused to tell him the final destination. When Kang Shaonan arrived at an abandoned factory in the west of the city at six o'clock in the afternoon, Fu Zihao finally called again.
"Get out of the car now and go to the nearest workshop. Someone is waiting for you there. Remember, if you see any criminal police around, you and your wife will see each other in hell!"
Kang Shaonan put his phone away with a gloomy face, looked around, and strode into the factory gate. The factory had been abandoned for many years, the yard was overgrown with weeds, and some old garbage was thrown everywhere. The factory was backed by a green mountain. If it was surrounded by the police, it would be a place of no return. Kang Shaonan walked into the workshop and saw a man with a crew cut and a yellow-haired look waiting for him. Seeing Kang Shaonan come in, the two men immediately looked him up and down with vigilance. The crew cut winked at the yellow-haired man with the gun in his hand, and the yellow-haired man immediately walked up to Kang Shaonan and asked, "Do you have a gun?"
Kang Shaonan raised his hands above his head and asked Huangmao to come over and search his body.
The yellow-haired man searched the room and nodded to the short-haired man. The short-haired man waved to Kang Shaonan and said, "Come with us!"
The yellow-haired man was in front and the man with a crew cut was behind. The two men took Kang Shaonan through the workshop and finally stopped in front of an abandoned office building.
"Go up, our boss is waiting for you up there!" The yellow-haired man and the crew-haired man stopped at the same time, pointed their guns at Kang Shaonan and shook them.
Kang Shaonan frowned and strode up the stairs. Every corner on every floor was guarded by Fu Zihao's men. After going up to the fourth floor, someone took him into a large office. As soon as he walked in, the door of the office was slammed shut. The office was very large, with an area of 50 to 60 square meters. As soon as Kang Shaonan walked in, he saw Fu Zihao sitting in the middle. There was a black cloth hanging behind him, so he couldn't see anything clearly. Two thugs followed closely behind him, holding guns and standing on both sides of Kang Shaonan.
"You're really worthy of being a soldier! You came here even though you knew you were going to die!" Fu Zihao stood up with a smile.
"Where's my wife?" Kang Shaonan didn't want to waste time talking to him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! Captain Kang, are you so concerned about second-hand goods?"
"You bastard!" With anger rising to his head, Kang Shaonan clenched his fists and stared at this scumbag fiercely.
"Haha! Captain Kang, don't be angry. If you get angry, your wife may lose her life!" Fu Zihao narrowed his eyes and looked at Kang Shaonan provocatively.
"Let Yu Xiao go! If you have anything to say, come to me!"
"I'm coming for you now!" Fu Zihao spread his arms: "You shot my eldest brother to death that year. Your shooting skills are really good! But my eldest brother also enjoyed himself at the last time. He was able to have sex with a girl like Yu Xiao. Do you think Yu Xiao is my sister-in-law from this point of view?" Fu Zihao said with a smile, and suddenly turned around and tore off the black cloth.
Kang Shaonan was so angry that his veins bulged, and he wanted to cut this scum into pieces. But when the black cloth fell off, his body froze for a moment. On a computer chair, his little wife was tied up with her hands and feet, and her mouth was taped, looking at him with tears streaming down her face.
"Xiaoxiao! You bastards!" Unable to bear it any longer, Kang Shaonan bent down and swept sideways. When he stood up, he chopped out with his left palm and kicked the chest of the thug next to him with his right leg. The next second, he quickly moved behind another thug, confiscated his gun in a flash, and pointed the gun at his head.
"Beautiful! Kang Shaonan, it seems that you don't want to rescue your wife, right?" Almost at the same time, Fu Zihao pointed his pistol at Yu Xiao's temple and looked at Kang Shaonan with a sneer.
"Let her go! I will let your people go!" Although he knew that Fu Zihao was cruel and ruthless, there was still a glimmer of hope now.
"Haha! Do you think I'm that stupid?" Fu Zihao reached out and tore off the tape on Yu Xiao's mouth. He lowered his head and whispered an evil smile into Yu Xiao's ear: "Sister-in-law, I heard that you have lost your memory. I know everything about what happened to you seven years ago. Do you want to hear it?"
"Xiaoxiao, don't believe him! He's a bastard!" There was a sudden force behind him, and a gun was pointed at his waist. Kang Shaonan's gun was taken back. But he still didn't give up, and shouted at Yu Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, what he said is all false! He lied to you!"
"Bang!" Fu Zihao's gun suddenly shot at the place next to Yu Xiao's shoes, and a cloud of dust rose from the ground. Yu Xiao screamed in shock. In more than ten days, her body was on the verge of collapse. But her ears were still useful, and she heard every word Fu Zihao said clearly.
"Tell me... what happened seven years ago!" Yu Xiao looked at Kang Shaonan and spoke with difficulty, not knowing where he got the strength from.
"Xiaoxiao!" Kang Shaonan wanted to move forward, but the gun behind him was pointed at him again.
"From now on, if you say a word without my permission, I will shoot you. As for where, it's hard to say. The shot just now was just a warning!" Fu Zihao looked at Kang Shaonan coldly.
"You. Speak. I'm. Listening!" Yu Xiao looked at Kang Shaonan closely and answered word by word in a weak voice.
Looking at Yu Xiao, Kang Shaonan's throat slid violently a few times. He clenched his fists and dared not say another word.
Fu Zihao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, it's actually the same as it was seven years ago, except that someone else has kidnapped you. The one who kidnapped you is my own brother. Of course, there are a few others who are his brothers in life and death. Do you know? The last woman my brother had before he died..."
"Fu Zihao, you bastard, I'm going to kill you!" Kang Shaonan roared at Fu Zihao with bloodshot eyes, but Fu Zihao's pistol was pointed at his wife's head. Looking at his wife's desperate eyes, he could do nothing: "Xiaoxiao, don't believe him..."
Fu Zihao sneered at Kang Shaonan, then looked at Yu Xiao and continued, "The last woman my eldest brother had before he died was you!"
"You, you, what did you say?" It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck through her body. Yu Xiao looked up at Fu Zihao with trembling lips, and deep despair was in her eyes. (To be continued)
