Neil"s first thought was to call Mi Rae to see if they were alright But soon he realized that,that would be risky as the kidnappers could discover the phone.His heart had been in a panic since they discvered that Ru was kidnapped and now adding Mi Rae,he could not keep calm.He went to the police chief who was observing the red dot moving on the map and was about to make a call.Agitatedly he said,"Chief,we now have the direction of the kidnappers!You need to take action and not wait for the ransom call.Arrest that Elder Hu."
The chief just shook his head and said,"Mr Long.We have to also follow procedures.We have no proof that Elder Hu is the perpetrator.Plus our first priority currently is saving the victims.I am about to call for back up and they will follow the car.Please excuse me."
Alicia and Neil were both currently feeling almost useless and helpless when suddenly the blinking red dot disappeared on the map!Da** it!The phone"s battery must have died!If they lost the location now,there would be no way to follow them.. Neil needed to do something,he could not sit by idly..
By now Ryu had opened a computer himself and was now taking the screen shots..The IT expert was a little shocked at the man next to him.He had always been proud of himself for being fast but Ryu Long was already faster than him.The man had already hacked into the government"s CCTV cameras at checkpoints and the make of the car could be seen.Once that was done,Ryu looked at Neil and said,"They are going not only towards the outskirts but towards the forest and missus?You need to cut that off."Neil understood the meaning and immediately left the place in a rush using the back stairs while Alicia left the room without a word.
The Chief returned and said,"I think they may be using the phone to send us to a different location.How can a small child be so resourceful to think properly.He must probably be scared to even breathe loudly..."Ryu Long glared at the Police Chief and shut him up in a minute...But the chief was braver and used to everyone obeying his authority so he dared to continue.."Anyways just to confirm,I have already told the officers in that area to keep an eye out for a car which may look suspicious.And I am telling you once again we cannot just arrest Mr Hu.Where is Attorney Long and Madam Long??"The Chief looked around carefully and realized that Neil Long was not in the room anymore...Neil could not have gone outside since he was standing right out of the door and Madam Long was also missing.He spotted a small staircase towards the back of the room..maybe they had gone there..
The IT person was about to explain the conversation though he had also not understood much when Ryu Long cut him off."My wife was feeling unwell so my brother escorted her upstairs. You need not worry.Neil will not do anything rash.Chief,the signal is lost now..Maybe you were right and that was to misguide us.But to be on the safe side,why don"t you check the CCTV cameras from the places that the GPS showed to get a picture of what the kidnapper"s vehicle looks like?" With that Ryu turned the laptop which now had a simple plain screen, towards the chief.The Chief took the laptop and typed in a series of codes on the browser while he tried to quickly think up something to avoid doing that. Suddenly Ryu pressed a b.u.t.ton and a police van"s still picture appeared. The chief stilled as his eyes widened.Bl.u.s.tering he asked,"What is the meaning of this?"
Staring at the man, Ryu said in an apparently light tone,"A coincidence of course. The CCTV cameras all show the time and every checkpoint that the kidnapper"s car pa.s.sed on the GPS, it was this police van which just happens to be from your district showed up in the cameras..."
The Chief looked shocked and affronted asking at the same time,"Are you accusing that my people are involved in this kidnapping?"
Ryu just shook his head and said"I am accusing no such thing.I am simply stating a fact.But let us not get in to that and discuss a rescue plan for my son and sister in law.The kidnappers are moving towards the forest where the tree cover will be thick so there is no possibility of taking my helicopter..And finding their trail will be difficult as well.So Neil has already left for the place and I suggest you tell us the location that you have chosen to hide my son and I will let you go.."
The Chief shot up from his place and pointed a finger at Ryu as his face turned red in anger."Just what are you trying to say CEO Ryu Long?Big businessman or no,I will throw you in prison if you accuse me once more."
Ryu just smiled at that and pressed another b.u.t.ton on the laptop..A video started to play,"Elder!The mission is in a jeopardy!They have received the location.The young brat was too smart.."A second"s pause,"Yes sir..I will try and delay them as much as possible but you need to inform them to change the location as soon as possible."
