“Let me negotiate with them to release his granddaughter?” Yang Sen raised his voice in anger. “What did you do? There is no way to negotiate! Let him prepare for her funeral.”
“It’s only a slight misunderstanding. This is a civilized society. Who can defy the law?” The voice of an elderly man with a magnetic personality was heard on the other end of the line. “A man of Mister Wang’s status shouldn’t be subjected to intimidation. Moreover, his granddaughter has also been kidnapped. This is too much. Arrange for someone to have her released no matter what. You must look at the big picture.
Additionally, things like kidnapping and murder should be forgotten after casually talking about them. We are representing the nation. Are there people who want to challenge the national authority? Who exactly are these people? They are too daring! If anything happens to Elder Wang’s granddaughter, the consequences will be disastrous! Even if they think they are like the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, they can’t escape the palm of the Buddha. Furthermore, they are human.”
“It’s too late to talk about it now. I can’t even find them.” Yang Sen, who was having a headache, continued, “Convince Wang Zhi to live in seclusion for now. Never ever divulge his whereabouts.”
“Is it that serious?” The other person was surprised by Yang Sen’s reply after his long explanation. In that case, the other party was certainly not someone to be trifled with.
“It’s very serious. The consequences are dire, and Wang Zhi will be ruined. There are many things I can’t tell you. You will get the chance to know in the future,” Yang Sen said. After all, only a limited number of people knew about what Ren Baqian was doing, so Yang Sen couldn’t reveal the details of the situation.
Wang Zhi was really in serious trouble this time.
He was among the top 100 wealthiest, possibly even at the top of the list. He was really extraordinary.
Still, he should have realized who he had provoked this time around.
The person on the other end of the call still suspected that Ren Baqian would break the law. There was no reason to doubt it—he would really break the law.
As a section chief of the department that was dedicated to studying both Ren Baqian and the empress, Yang Sen knew a bit about Ren Baqian’s personality.
Retaliation was certain, and it would be unthinkable for him not to take revenge. To say that he was very vindictive would not be an exaggeration.
Normally, Ren Baqian wouldn’t disturb others and seldom showed his face in public. However, if someone provoked him, he would show no mercy. The Jin family in S City was a good example. The whole family was wiped out regardless of whether they were involved. Male or female, young or old, nobody was spared.
His methods made Yang Sen feel chills down his spine.
Aside from Ren Baqian, nobody could communicate with Qi Zixiao, who treated living things like ants.
These two weren’t only important, their powers were no different from that of Superman in the movies.
The scene of the accident today was one example. The car was tumbling in the air when they jumped out of it and lifted it up six or seven meters high. That car weighed nearly 2,000 kilograms. Was a human capable of doing this?
Even though he already knew of Qi Zixiao’s power, he was still shocked by this feat.
He saw the footage from a surveillance camera, and even though he was aware of her power, he was still taken aback. He could feel the inhuman power, speed, and physical strength.
Wang Zhi must have grown tired of living to dare use such an extreme method to attack these two individuals.
On the other hand, if something were to happen to them, the nation wouldn’t let Wang Zhi off.
It was a ridiculous situation. No matter who wanted to attack these two, the nation wouldn’t let them off. However, these two people wanted to take revenge, and he had to stop them. Yang Sen was in a dilemma.
“No matter what happens to Wang Zhi this time, break off the relationship if possible,” Yang Sen kindly reminded the person on the other end of the call.
Immediately, the other person became serious.
For Yang Sen to say such words, it meant that the main threat wasn’t due to the person who had conflict with Wang Zhi, but that it concerned some fundamental issues in the system. That was why he was told to break off his relationship with Wang Zhi after this affair was over. Yet, how was this possible? Just the rights to the oil fields in the USA were enough to be his protective amulet.
“So be it. I don’t want to talk anymore.” Yang Sen had a headache after hanging up the phone.
His team had arrived too late to both the accident scene and the hospital. Now that both Ren Baqian and the empress didn’t want to meet with him, it was extremely difficult to find them because their skills were superior to his.
Fortunately, there was still a chance. As long as they couldn’t find Wang Zhi, they would expose themselves while looking for him.
He would go to where they were residing and see if he could find them.
If they were ordinary people, it would naturally be impossible for them to return.
However, these two people might defy common sense and return home to rest. They couldn’t be stealthily hopping into hotels like they had when they were on the run in a foreign country the previous time.
This time, they had to bring along one extra person, and the most suitable place to stay was at their house.
When he thought of this, Yang Sen hurried to the door.
Hopefully, the captive was still alive.
…
Yang Sen guessed correctly. Ren Baqian and the empress had really returned home.
The girl was tied up like a mummy. Her mouth was stuffed with something, and she was thrown onto the ground. Ren Baqian was lying comfortably on his bed. After all, the bed at home was more comfortable.
Up until now, he had not asked the girl her name.
It didn’t matter whether she was innocent or had a bright future, the present situation couldn’t be changed, and her fate was sealed.
One would lead a good life if one was born into a rich family. After enjoying the riches brought by Wang Zhi, she naturally had to bear the enmity and hatred as well.
In the eyes of Ren Baqian, there were no innocent people.
It was just like the case of the people in the Jin family.
After Ren Baqian lazed around for more than an hour, the empress walked into his room and said, “Someone is here.”
Ren Baqian woke up with a start. At this time, the doorbell rang.
“I am not going to see you. It would not be good if this breaks up our friendship.”
There were only two groups of people who could be here at this time, people from the Messier 87 or people affiliated with Wang Zhi.
If they were from the former, Ren Baqian didn’t want to meet with them.
Yang Sen rang the doorbell downstairs for a long time without getting any response and signalled the young man beside him. The young man took out a tablet, and after pressing some keys, the smart lock on the door opened with a slight click.
Yang Sen pushed the door open and saw a deserted villa.
“Mr. Ren! Can we please have a quick chat?” Yang Sen shouted loudly. “No matter what, the nation has its laws. I know that you are angry at this moment, but this matter can be resolved in other ways rather than simply relying on force! Brute force can’t solve every problem! As for this matter, the nation will certainly account for it…”
Ren Baqian, who was on the rooftop, curled his lips after hearing these words. Force certainly couldn’t solve every problem, but it was the most convenient and satisfying to use.If force could be used to solve a problem, there was no reason to do otherwise.
It was only time to show his wisdom when force couldn’t solve a problem.
It was a pity that this wasn’t the case now.
“Let’s go.” Ren Baqian pointed at the forest behind them and gestured to the empress.
The three disappeared from the rooftop.
…
After shouting for a long time and not getting any response, Yang Sen went upstairs.
“Chief, there were some people here who have just left,” someone said after checking the bedroom.
“Spread out and search. Pay special attention to the rooftop,” Yang Sen ordered. However, he knew in his heart that the chances of finding them were minimal.
Their speed was too fast and their skills too superior. If they didn’t want to meet him, even digging down three feet underground to find them would be useless.
Nothing was found after searching for some time. Yang Sen was psychologically prepared not to find anyone and said, “Let’s go around and see whether there is anything valuable around. Remember not to mess up. Put everything back in its original location after moving it.”
“Do you want to set up two surveillance devices and electronic bugs so that we will know instantly when they are back?”
“There is no need.” Yang Sen waved his hands.
If they discovered these surveillance devices and bugs, he would be in serious trouble.
“Chief, we have discovered some human limbs and body parts in the freezer located in the kitchen.”
Yang Sen was shocked to hear this and was hoping that it wasn’t true. Did those two really kill the hostage and placed her in the freezer? Would they only stop when the hostage (TLC. I think it should be something along the lines of “perpetrator” here.) was dead?
When he rushed to the fridge and saw the things inside, he heaved a sigh of relief.
What he saw in the fridge wasn’t the horror he had anticipated.
Inside the fridge was an arm, leg, liver, stomach, kidney, and spleen that were all packed separately.
It could be seen from the arm and the leg that the body parts were from a man.
“Bring them back for investigation and establish the identity.” Yang Sen ordered. It was impossible for him to turn a blind eye and pretend not to see such things.
However, he guessed that these body parts weren’t from a human body from Earth.
There was no need to pack a body from Earth in such a manner.
Moreover, Ren Baqian had brought an Earth Wheel expert’s corpse from the other world to the laboratory before.
These body parts were probably from the other world. He had a feeling that the owner of these parts had been someone extraordinary.
Otherwise, the body wouldn’t be packed like this.
If he wasn’t wrong, this corpse was supposed to be given to him by Ren Baqian, and it was a pity that this had been messed up due to the problem with Wang Zhi.
“Damn Wang Zhi,” Yang Sen cursed him under his breath.
