Chapter 76: Rescue In Progress
Huo Tian drove so quickly that it looked like the vehicle was going to fly. She gave instructions to Bi Ying through her earphone as she drove.
Bi Ying sat in front of the computer, his fingers typing furiously on the keyboard. He followed Huo Tian’s instructions and started programming. He connected all the robot toys and some semi-finished machines they had left in the workshop to an app that Huo Tian had just completed on her phone.
Programming was an extremely complicated job to begin with, but now, Bi Ying did not have any chance to correct his mistakes. His mind raced as he wrote the corresponding program according to Huo Tian’s simple instructions.
Bi Ying’s head was covered in cold sweat. A quick-witted company employee was wiping his sweat from time to time, in case the sweat blinded his eyes. Bi Ying’s fingers were moving so fast that there were afterimages. He even felt that his hand was about to spasm, but he did not dare to stop for a moment.
Bi Ying finally heaved a sigh of relief after typing the last line of code. He said to Huo Tian through the earphone, “I’ve already completed it, but I don’t know if this program will work.”
Huo Tian’s calm voice rang out through the earphone. “Bi Ying, I believe in you and myself. This program was written by the two of us together. It’s impossible for it to fail.”
Bi Ying took a deep breath and clicked the installation button. He looked at the progress bar on the screen and said, “The program has been installed on your phone, but the hardware of mobile phones can’t meet the operation speed of the program now. You just need to run the program once and the phone will immediately be scrapped. You have to rush to the signal reception range of those robots and find the right time before you press the confirmation button.”
Huo Tian took a glance at it. There was a bright green button on the phone as if waiting for her fingers to land on it.
Huo Tian said, “How to choose the right timing will depend on Si Huan.”
Two computers were placed in front of Si Huan. One of them had Liu Jun’s live-stream on it, and the other computer had information gathered by a professional team from different places.
Si Huan said, “The police have already received a report. Police officers from the nearby police station have started to head to the scene to understand the situation. They will be at your house in about three minutes.”
“Three minutes? That’s enough time.”
Huo Tian turned the steering wheel hard and the vehicle made a hurried turn, leaving the spacious road and driving into a dark alley.
This alley that had a lot of turns and corners was connected to several districts. There was even a slope filled with stairs. Huo Tian drove the vehicle and landed on the flat ground from the top of the slope.
The uncles and aunties who liked to chat idly by the roadside were so frightened by the vehicle that they almost fainted. They thought that there was a car accident, but the vehicle didn’t stop and drove off. The uncles and aunties were so shocked that their mouths opened wide.
An old man trembled as he said, “They’re filming a movie, right? Are there still such exciting martial arts movies nowadays? When this movie is released, I’ll definitely get my grandson to bring me to the cinema to watch it.”
While the uncles and aunties were talking about this nonexistent movie, Huo Tian’s vehicle had already entered the urban village. She had long understood the complicated alleys in the urban village very well and drove quickly as she calculated the fastest route to her place.
At this moment, the kidnappers in the Ding Family’s house were in a good mood, filled with anticipation as they waited for the arrival of the 500 million yuan ransom.
They discussed excitedly how they were going to spend the money after getting it, not caring about Ding Rong, who was squirming with great difficulty on the ground.
However, an uneasy feeling suddenly flashed across the leader’s heart. He frowned and carefully thought about his plan, wanting to find the point that made him feel uneasy.
An underling was chatting with someone when he suddenly said something with great emotions.
“Our luck is not bad. When we were forced into a corner, we barged into the urban village. We originally wanted to hide here and find an opportunity to flee to Southeast Asia. Who knew that we would be so lucky to encounter such a big business. In the future, we can go to the most developed country and become a tycoon just like that. Great cars and beauties, just thinking about a life like that feels amazing…”
The kidnappers’ leader seemed to have suffered a blow to the head and was instantly enlightened. He understood what the problem was.
He suddenly stood up, gritted his teeth, and cursed in a low voice with an ugly expression, “Damn it, we should have fallen into someone else’s trap!”
“Boss, what trap?” Another underling didn’t take it seriously and persuaded him with a smile, “We didn’t interact much with other people on the way. How did we fall into a trap?”
The kidnappers’ leader gave him a slap. The underling covered his reddened face and fell onto the person beside him.
For a moment, the kidnappers did not dare to raise any more doubts. They kept quiet out of fear and did not dare to speak, afraid that they would anger their temperamental boss.
The leader’s cold and bloodthirsty eyes scanned the surroundings and finally landed on Ding Rong, who was on the ground.
