Chapter 1285: Chapter 1257: Xiaoqiang, Save the Child!
Qian placed her hand on her belly, hoping to share her strength with the baby inside her.
Child, you must hold on, Mommy will definitely bring you safely into this world! Just endure it a bit!
Thinking of this, Qian created a small barrier with her hands, leaned close to her mother’s ear, and whispered softly. Qian’s mother’s lips trembled slightly, her hands cold, and looked helplessly at her daughter, as if asking if this was okay.
Qian nodded to her, so Qian’s mother, following Qian’s instructions, asked as if nothing was wrong.
"Dalong is doing great lately. He was commended by the company. He even told me that the next time he’s commended, he wants to take his father with him."
"Really?" A hint of joy emerged in Chen Lin’s voice.
Qian’s mother looked at Qian, and Qian nodded.
"Yes, his superior praised him, saying he’s really capable. Recently, he’s been with his sister—"
Qian pinched her mother, making her swallow back the words "sister and brother-in-law."
Now, Qian was having her talk about Dalong, just to test if Chen Lin’s logical thinking was confused, to find an emotional breakthrough. She knew that Chen Lin now had an inexplicable desire to kill her, so she couldn’t mention herself or Yu Minglang.
"Under his leader’s guidance, he’s been studying to retake the college entrance exams next year. If he gets into a good school, you can be proud of having an outstanding descendant."
"Nonsense! He’s my son, of course, he’ll be successful, haha!" Chen Lin was indeed very happy.
This reaction made Qian even more suspicious. He acts normally when discussing other topics, but goes crazy when talking about himself. What kind of mental illness is this?
While Qian’s mother distracted Chen Lin, she multitasked.
She analyzed Chen Lin’s condition, a disease she had never encountered before, very extreme and targeted only at her, while logical and having memory concerning other issues, like normal emotions towards Dalong.
Qian’s hands kept trying to dial, knowing there was a device in the car blocking phone signals, yet she still wanted to see if there was any chance to break through the block. But she was destined for disappointment; the device was advanced, and the signals were thoroughly blocked.
This also alerted Qian, who provided Chen Lin with such equipment, who exactly was it? This high-tech, combined with the taxi, and Chen Lin’s abnormal reaction...
While pondering these, Qian’s eyes didn’t stop working. She began to look outside. Chen Lin was driving fast, already out of the city, heading along the highway. The road she’d notified Xiaoqiang about was still inside the city, but now they had passed several junctions. She wasn’t sure if Yu Minglang could find her through so many junctions.
And Qian remembered that on this highway, there seemed to be two more ramps ahead, one leading to a mountain scenic area, and another to a different city.
Watching Chen Lin head towards the road to the scenic area, Qian was shocked.
Oh no, are we heading into the mountains?
If they go into the mountains, can Xiaoqiang find her immediately? Even if she could use hypnosis to control Chen Lin, what about her belly—
Qian’s belly throbbed again, waves of pain started to hit. Though not very painful yet, it filled her with a vague sense of unease.
Now she could only hope Chen Lin had no accomplices, and Xiaoqiang could break through the layers of barriers quickly to find her.
Closing her eyes, she suddenly remembered the dream she had at the start of her pregnancy, Xiaowei urgently calling, Daddy, save me.
At this moment, the all-capable Qian, although she had prepared for comprehensive self-rescue, found her thoughts overlapping with that dream.
Xiaoqiang, save the child!
At the same time, Yu Minglang was not idle. He drove, tracking on his judgment, while calling to mobilize all the forces he could. It’s a collective effort in such a situation; he needed more people to track down.
Besides reporting to the police, he also called his brother, deploying multiple vehicles from different angles, knowing Qian took a taxi, and also knew the car’s plate number. But to prevent the opponent from temporarily changing to fake plates, Yu Minglang made multi-dimensional arrangements.
Various units, people set off from different routes, tracking every possible route Qian might have taken. Yu Minglang also applied to set up checkpoints at several highway toll booths to check vehicles.
Even so, he still felt insecure, despite the appearance that the opponent had no way to escape. But arranging things and getting approvals takes time; even bypassing some complex procedures, moving people into place needs time, at the fastest, still a few minutes.
A discrepancy of a few minutes, the car can get very far, and many things can happen in a few minutes.
This is where Yu Minglang’s extraordinary brain and command talent shine. A clear map appeared in his mind, starting from the position Qian mentioned, radiating outward, and he precisely assigned people to every route.
Qiao Zhen handled the unit’s mobilization internally for Yu Minglang, the two of them having an exceptional tacit understanding after years of working together. From a single idea, Qiao Zhen understood and immediately dispatched several teams.
Several teams in the city had already started searching, and Yu Minglang was closer than the others, quickly arriving at the ramp.
His phone remained in touch with Qiao Zhen. Speaking to Qiao Zhen was like speaking to everyone, as Qiao Zhen at headquarters had control over all resources.
"one, you’re the nearest car outside the city. Follow the city route, I’ll have the other teams enter the mountains."
Qiao Zhen proposed to Yu Minglang, suggesting he advance towards another city because, conventionally, the opponent might likely be moving Qian and her mother.
Facing the two ramps ahead, Yu Minglang relied on his intuition and refused.
"I’m going into the mountains, your teams head into the city."
"Why? Isn’t entering the mountains less likely now? If the person who kidnapped our sister-in-law is after wealth, wouldn’t they more likely head into the city?"
"I don’t know, just a hunch." Yu Minglang wished Qian could still, like before, leave him some kind of clue.
But now there was nothing, only his intuition to rely on.
"Let’s hope your intuition is correct."
Yu Minglang’s car sped towards the direction of the mountains.
During this time, he called his second brother, who said aerial support could be requested, but deploying helicopters took time, including setting flight paths. Meanwhile, everything would depend on Xiaoqiang himself.
Now, a net formed to find Qian, who was also actively preparing for self-rescue.
She watched Chen Lin drive towards the scenic area direction but took a bumpy, off-road path.
This scenic area was mountainous, not peak tourist season, with few people around, and sparse residents. The path Chen Lin chose was desolate, making it quite difficult to find her.
The dense foliage obscured the view, leaving Qian’s heart sinking further.
