On the wide and smooth road, a silver van was moving forward.
In the car, an adult man was driving, and the other three were sitting in the front passenger seat. Two children about six or seven years old were sleeping in the back row. Their small bodies were curled up, and their hair was sweaty on their foreheads. Their brows were slightly furrowed, and they seemed to be a little uncomfortable.
Suddenly, the van shook violently, and the driver stepped on the brakes subconsciously. The two children in the back seat rolled to the ground because of the impact.
The nerves of the four people in the car were already taut, and they almost screamed at the sight.
The driver glanced at the man in the front passenger seat and motioned for him to take a look.
The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His heart was pounding, and his blood pressure was rising. His whole body was like a string that had been suppressed to the extreme. He lowered the window in fear and sneaked a peek outside. He saw a black car parked behind them, and a young man who looked to be in his twenties stood beside it anxiously.
Seeing this, the man breathed a sigh of relief. He cursed, "Damn it, which bastard doesn't want to live anymore? Why are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated? "
"So … sorry." The driver who had accidentally rear-ended the car blushed. "I didn't do it on purpose. I was driving just now, and it was a little unstable. I'll pay for it." As he spoke, he pointed at the emergency parking area. "Let's go there and talk! It's too dangerous here. "
"No need." The second brother in the front passenger seat was stunned. "I'm just unlucky. Let's go!"
The last sentence was directed at the boss who was driving.
He didn't want to pursue the matter, but the driver who had rear-ended the car was very embarrassed. He quickly walked forward, took out a business card from his bag, and said, "If you change your mind later, call me at this number."
"Okay, okay, I got it." The second brother gestured behind him to dismiss the alarm, and the two people holding sharp knives behind him silently withdrew their hands.
The driver, who had survived, scratched his head and sighed. "What a good person!"
"Damn it, I was scared to death." The third brother stroked his sweat-soaked hair. "I'm sweating all over."
"Me too." Lao Si let out a sigh from his throat. "This really can't be done often. It's simply a test of one's mentality. If that person had spoken a little later, I would have rushed out with a knife."
The place where they met the driver was already very far away from the surveillance camera. The blurry pixels made it impossible to capture anyone.
"But fortunately …" Boss forced a smile. "Just this one time. After this one time, it will be enough for us to live the rest of our lives. We won't have to lick the blood on the blade anymore."
"Let's not talk about it anymore. Number Four, go and put the child back on the chair," Number Three said.
"Release what?" Lao Si shrugged indifferently. "Anyway, we've already passed the most difficult part. We'll soon arrive at the place where we change cars. I'm too lazy to move."
"You can just be lazy to death." Even though he said that, Old Third didn't move.
Anyway, he was going to send the child to a remote place in the mountains. Why should he care so much?
In a place where they didn't know, Wei Jing opened his eyes and heard their conversation. He clenched his fists subconsciously, and his heart was beating like thunder. He told himself not to rush and to take it slow. These were a group of vicious criminals.
He just didn't know … whether this group of people was here for him or for Xu Jiahui.
The collision just now had caused too much of a commotion. When Wei Jing fell, he hit his head and woke up from the pain.
He was now lying in the space between the back seat and the front seat. He was lying on the ground, so he was in the criminals' blind spot. The child secretly nudged Xu Jiahui next to him, but there was no movement.
Wei Jing didn't know whether to be happy or worried. He was happy that Xu Jiahui didn't wake up, so they wouldn't make a commotion and be discovered by the criminals. He was worried because this group of criminals had obviously planned very carefully. Once they changed cars, they really wouldn't be able to escape.
His only chance was to change gears when he switched gears.
From the looks of it, this group of people wouldn't kill them. Then, they might be able to escape when the other party wanted to capture them alive but couldn't kill them.
It was already very dark in the car. It was about six or seven o 'clock in autumn. They should have been missing for some time. He hoped that someone would discover them and quickly call the police. Once the criminals really went far, it would be difficult to deal with them.
This was not like the future, where there were cameras everywhere, and the criminals' portraits could be quickly spread on the Internet to be tracked by the whole nation.
Once they left B City, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Oh!" Suddenly, Xu Jiahui, who was next to Wei Jing, let out a weak moan.
Wei Jing's eyes widened, and he hurriedly covered the child's mouth with his hand. Fortunately, the four people were talking happily, so no one noticed such a small movement.
When Xu Jiahui woke up, he saw Wei Jing's small face magnified. It was white and smooth, like a peeled egg, and it made people want to take a bite. He wanted to speak, but the other party covered his mouth with one hand, and the other hand kept making a "shh" gesture.
The big men's voices were rough and barbaric, and their words were mixed with a lot of unpleasant swearing.
Xu Jiahui was stunned, and then he realized what was happening to him. He … was kidnapped? She had been kidnapped by four men in front of so many people.
Many things suddenly flashed through the child's mind. For example, he was clever and sharp, used his ability to get rid of the kidnappers, praised by his parents, and admired by his friends. Or he secretly left a mark, and let the police follow the signal to the kidnappers' lair …
At this time, he didn't even think that being kidnapped was a bad thing, because he hadn't seen how scary the other party was.
After an unknown amount of time, the whole sky was dark. In this secluded suburb, only the headlights of a white van illuminated the surroundings.
The place they prepared to change cars was very remote, and there wasn't a single house around. There was only an old abandoned courtyard, and the new van was parked there. The car they were driving now would be disposed of when they arrived at the location.
The old courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and the four kidnappers had been here many times, so they were already familiar with it.
As soon as they arrived, they breathed a sigh of relief. The four of them still had to wait for Lu Xiaoer to come before they left together. Two of them went to dispose of the car, and the other two put the children in the new van. They took out some bread and water from the front seat to replenish their energy.
In the darkness, Wei Jing secretly opened his eyes. The current situation was quite good for them, and if they wanted to escape, they had to seize this opportunity.
He leaned over, his mouth almost touching Xu Jiahui's ear. "Later, we'll hold hands and run together. There's a small forest outside, so we'll run to wherever it's remote, got it?"
"Okay." Xu Jiahui, who was still treating this as an adventure game, nodded vigorously, his eyes full of excitement.
"Okay, one, two, three, run." At this time, the two children had already reached the front row of seats. The kidnappers were careless, thinking that the two children wouldn't be able to cause any trouble, so they didn't even lock the car.
Wei Jing knew how scary this situation was. If it was just a human trafficker, it would be fine, but what if it was an organ seller? He couldn't afford to gamble at all. In terms of physical strength, Xu Jiahui, who was tall and strong since he was young, was definitely stronger than Wei Jing. However, Wei Jing was running with all his might, and he was actually a little faster than Xu Jiahui.
There was only one exit in this abandoned courtyard, and before Wei Jing went out, he found that there was an old-fashioned lock outside that could be hooked.
He nimbly closed the door, hooked it, and locked it from the inside.
His actions were done in one go, and his hand speed exploded to the extreme. This way, he could buy more time for them.
The two big men started to knock on the door inside, and Wei Jing had already pulled Xu Jiahui's hand and started to run into the forest. He had secretly looked around when he was in the car. This place was too remote, and there wasn't even a street light. It was impossible to find them, so he could only stall for time and wait for help.
It was November, and most of the leaves had fallen. Fortunately, there were many leafy maple trees in the small forest. Wei Jing gritted his teeth, and he could already hear the shouts of the big men in the distance.
The children's footsteps couldn't be compared to the adults'.
"Do you know how to climb trees? Quick! Climb up. "Wei Jing pointed at a tall maple tree and said.
"I … I don't know how to!" Xu Jiahui blinked, looking quite innocent.
"Step on my shoulder, then grab the trunk over there and climb up. Do you understand?" They had to hurry up, and Wei Jing bent down as he spoke.
"No." In contrast to the anxious Wei Jing, Xu Jiahui seemed more relaxed and leisurely. "You're so thin, so you should step on mine! I'm strong. "
"Where did you get this nonsense from? Hurry up, I can climb up myself." Wei Jing lowered his voice, and his tone was urgent. The faint voice of the big man behind him was like a sickle hanging over his head, and he was close to the threat of death. He was forced into a desperate situation, and his brain was spinning rapidly.
Xu Jiahui was frightened by Wei Jing's sudden sternness. He didn't dare to say anything more and stepped on him obediently.
Wei Jing's body was weak, and he didn't have much strength. When a child heavier than him stepped on his shoulder, he gritted his teeth and clasped his hands on the rough bark of the tree. He sent the child up bit by bit. "Hurry up, climb up."
"I see you. Do you want to get beaten up if you continue to hide?" The big man's voice was close by.
Wei Jing was shocked. Had he been discovered? At this time, he was holding onto the trunk and couldn't turn his head at all. He held his breath for a few seconds, but still, no one came to catch him. It was too dark, and in this weather, it was probably not easy for the other party to find him.
After all, Xu Jiahui was a person who was determined to be a police officer. He had good motor skills, and he quickly climbed up the tree.
Wei Jing didn't turn his head. He nimbly climbed up the tree trunk.
Almost in the next second, the big man used a small screen phone to illuminate the place where Wei Jing was just standing. Several times, the light flashed to the place where Wei Jing and the others were.
"Strange, there's clearly a sound here!" the big man muttered.
