The van was traveling at a high speed, and Lu Bancheng was afraid of losing them, so he continued to accelerate.
Traffic was always smooth at night, and in just 20 minutes, Lu Bancheng followed the van out of the city and headed south.
The further they went into the suburbs, the fewer lights there were, and the faster they drove.
Outside the tightly shut windows, the whistling sound of the wind could be heard continuously.
The two cars maintained a safe distance from each other, and after driving for about half an hour, the van stopped by the side of the road.
Lu Bancheng was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he immediately stepped on the brakes while he was still a distance away from the van.
With the help of the dim yellow lights on both sides of the street, Lu Bancheng saw three men jump out of the van one after another. The last one bent down and pulled the woman out of the van. He carried her lightly on his back, and the three of them quickly walked down the winding path.
Seeing that the group of people had changed to walk, Lu Bancheng drove the car forward slightly and stopped at the entrance of a farmhouse. Then, he abandoned the car and followed the path.
Lu Bancheng tailed the three men for about 10 minutes before he saw them turn into an abandoned factory that had its back facing a river.
A minute after they entered, Lu Bancheng quietly approached the factory. The suburbs were exceptionally quiet at night. Just as he stood at the entrance of the factory, he heard the muffled voices of a few men coming from a room not far away from where the lights were on.
Lu Bancheng couldn't hear them clearly from a distance, but he still managed to catch a few scattered words. "Take a photo … Send it over …"
There were a lot of abandoned steel and spare parts in the factory's courtyard, and Lu Bancheng was afraid that he would accidentally step on them and cause a huge commotion, so he was extra careful with every step he took. When he was about to reach the brightly lit house, Lu Bancheng looked through the unglazed window and saw the woman lying on the ground in a crooked manner.
The lights in the house were bright and dazzling, and they were much clearer than the street lights. With just one glance, Lu Bancheng easily recognized that the clothes were not similar to Xu Wennuan's, but rather, Xu Wennuan's clothes.
Lu Bancheng's gaze then fell on Xu Wennuan's face. Her eyes were closed, and she did not react to the three men holding up their cell phones to take pictures of her. It was obvious that she had fainted.
Fortunately, he followed her, or else she … As relief and lingering fear swept through Lu Bancheng's heart, a wave of anger rose from the depths of his body. He pursed his lips and clenched his fists.
They … they actually dared to lay their hands on her …
"Are you done?" Someone in the room suddenly asked.
Lu Bancheng suppressed the anger in his heart and pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation.
"Done."
"Send the photo over and tell him that he has to arrive within an hour. Otherwise, don't blame us for not showing mercy!"
Tell him … who is he?
Just as Lu Bancheng was feeling puzzled, the sound of someone making a call came from inside the house. After a few beeps, someone finally picked up the call. Because the speaker was on, Lu Bancheng could hear Wu Hao's sleepy voice very clearly. "Hello?"
So … he's referring to Wu Hao?
As if to verify Lu Bancheng's guess, one of the men said to Wu Hao on the phone, "Mr. Wu, have you seen the photo I sent?"
