The police were immediately distracted. Except for the Kuang Zhiming couple who stayed behind to take care of Xiao Ke, all the other ghosts and humans rushed out to watch the fun. “What happened? What happened?”
Suddenly, people on the pedestrian street began to gather in one direction. A woman with bright clothes and disheveled hair cried out, “My child! My child was taken into a car and ran away!!!”
“What!?” Upon hearing this, several policemen immediately left the construction site and ran towards her while shouting into the intercom. The woman saw the police and screamed as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: “It was an electric car! A person on an electric car just took my child away!!!”
“F**k!” Tuan Tuanyi was stunned. “Isn’t this too outrageous?!”
Wei Xi took a bite of the apple in his hand while no one was paying attention. While Shuo Zong frowned and looked in the direction of the woman’s finger. The electric car she mentioned had already disappeared. He was about to track it, but someone was faster than him. The old men and women who came out to watch the fun were boiling with excitement, and they started to shout at once –
“What?!”
“How dare they do such a thing in broad daylight?!”
“Snatching a child?! This is unacceptable!”
“Go, go, go! Chase them! We can’t let them go!”
The ghosts were furious and jumped up from the ground. The interns from Taicang Sect followed them one after another. Shuo Zong was silent for a moment, looked at the huge group of ghosts in front of him, and calmly put down his hand that was about to make a gesture.
The police over there had already reported the situation anxiously, and at the same time, two people were assigned to drive a police car to chase after the suspect. However, the news coming from the intercom was extremely bad: “An abandoned electric vehicle was found at the Wushan intersection! The people in the vehicle are gone! We have already set out to check the nearby surveillance cameras!”
The child was snatched away on an electric scooter, and then they quickly changed their means of transportation. It was obviously an organized and premeditated action. The police on the scene immediately changed their expressions, and the child’s mother also let out a desperate howl.
Wei Xi chewed on the apple and looked up amid the fearful discussions of the people around him. His sight passed over the heads of the crowd and he saw a drowned ghost with a pale face floating back excitedly.
“Boss!!!!” The drowned ghost stepped on the shoulders of the crowd and landed beside the boss excitedly, “We caught up with them. The group of people got into a white van with the child in their arms and drove towards Dongping Road. There was no license plate number, but Aunt Wu and Uncle Liu had already climbed in!”
Wei Xi said “oh” but didn’t say anything. The Drowned Ghost was startled when he saw this. Then he saw the boss’s second apprentice also turn around. He obviously heard it as well, but he was silent for a while, raised his hand and covered the boss’s head: “Tell them.”
Although he didn’t know why his apprentice asked for this, Wei Xi never refused his treasures. After swallowing the apple, he calmly said to the police, “Dongping Road.”
The police were anxiously setting up surveillance, and when they heard the suspected charlatan, who they had just received a complaint about, suddenly speak, they were very confused: “What did you say?”
Wei Xi put down the apple and said, “They ran towards Dongping Road. They were in a white van with no license plate.”
Police: “How did you know?”
Wei Xi held the apple calmly and turned his head away as if he was not involved. This was not his client and he had no interest in explaining.
The police felt more and more that he was talking nonsense.
Wei Xi turned around and met the deep gaze of the second disciple. He was confused by the complex emotions in the gaze. After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and touched the other’s arm: “Don’t be afraid, Master will protect you.”
The second disciple looked at him deeply, and after a moment, he seemed to be helpless and patted the back of his hand, then turned to the policeman: “This is calculated.”
The policeman felt angry as if he was being teased. He stared at the handsome young man who was talking and said, “What nonsense are you talking about?!”
The young man’s expression slightly changed, and his eyes instantly turned cold. He also didn’t look like a warm-hearted person at all: “Whether you believe it or not, it’s up to you to decide.”
It obviously took time to check the surveillance. If the criminals changed to other means of transportation during the journey, the consequences would inevitably be even more troublesome. The situation was so critical that the young policeman couldn’t help but waver when he heard the firm tone. Could it be that these charlatans really had this ability?!
The woman beside him was crying so hard that he couldn’t bear to ignore her, but he didn’t dare to listen to Wei Xi rashly. So he thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and took out the walkie-talkie: “Is there anyone patrolling near Dongping Road? Check if there is a white van without a license plate on the road!”
But a moment later, he got a dumbfounded answer from the other end: “We found a white van! It doesn’t have a license plate!”
The policeman was stunned for two seconds, then stood up in shock and shouted, “Stop it!”
Then there was a shocking crash from the other end.
The colleague on the other end of the intercom was silent for a moment and then replied in an indescribable tone: “…it hit the telephone pole by itself.”
….
Two minutes ago.
The leader of the kidnapping gang: “Xiao Liu, there is a blind spot for surveillance ahead. Is the motorcycle ready?”
Xiao Liu: “We’re ready! They’re all stolen. They’re parked on the side of the road. We can just ditch the car and leave!”
The leader looked at the unconscious little victim in his arms, as if he had seen countless bills falling from the sky and couldn’t help but feel complacent: “Very good, you are getting better and better at stealing cars.”
Xiao Liu in turn also flattered him: “Brother, you are really good, you drive fast and well!”
In the air where they could not see, a group of furious old men and women filled the van. Those who could not fit in the van lay on the roof and hung their heads out of the windows, shouting at the driver: “Shameless! Shameless!”
Several ghosts who were pulling the windshield wipers also echoed: “It’s shameless, but he’s also ugly! I’d still look better than this guy if I jumped off the building!”
The kidnapper leader shrank his shoulders inexplicably: “Xiao Liu, why do I feel a little cold in the car?”
Xiao Liu also frowned: “Not only is it cold, but it seems like there are flies buzzing in my ears.”
“Who are you calling a fly? How rude!” The old men and women in the car immediately became furious. Regardless of the fact that they could not touch anyone, they swarmed up and started punching and kicking them. Some of the more ferocious old men and women could not squeeze in, so they simply took off their old cloth shoes and long foot bindings and stuffed them into the two men’s mouths.
The leader was driving normally when he was suddenly attacked by a foul smell coming from nowhere.
The stench was so terrible that he had never smelled anything so stinky before. It was like a corpse exploding, or a rotten egg that had been exposed to the sun for five thousand years, cracked open and mixed with human feces, fermented, and then thrown all over the pillow while he was sleeping. It was like a biological weapon. He was instantly made dizzy, his stomach was churning, his mind was blank, and he was at a loss.
The stench became more and more intense, and finally it was so bad that he saw stars and couldn’t help but let out a long “Ugh…”
The next second, a deafening crash and the sound of sirens followed.
But he was so shocked by the smell that he went into shock in the cab and could not hear anything.
