The man's abdomen was injured, and Wu Hao had kicked him so hard that he fell to the ground in pain and could not get up for a long time.
Wu Hao, who had already called the police on his way there, did not linger. He bent down to pick Xu Wennuan up from the ground and walked toward the door. Not long after, he stepped on something hard. He casually glanced down and saw that it was an exquisite men's watch.
It's a top-notch luxury brand, and it's expensive. It's not something a kidnapper could afford … So this watch was left behind by the person who saved Xu Wennuan?
Where did he go?
Wu Hao turned around and looked out the window. He frowned and thought for a moment before he seemed to suddenly understand something. He squatted down, picked up the watch, and put it in his pocket before he strode away with Xu Wennuan in his arms.
After placing Xu Wennuan in the car and helping her fasten her seatbelt, Wu Hao got into the car. He was not in a hurry to start the engine. Instead, he turned on the interior lights and took out the watch from his pocket to examine it carefully.
The more he looked at it, the more familiar it seemed to him, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Wu Hao could not recall who the watch belonged to, so he started the car and drove toward the city. After a short distance, he saw a familiar car through the rearview mirror.
Wu Hao subconsciously stepped on the brakes and slowly reversed the car. When he saw the license plate number of the car parked at the entrance of the farmhouse, he realized that the watch belonged to Lu Bancheng …
So, the person who saved Nuannuan is Lu Bancheng?
He was already gone when I arrived, so the only possibility is the river behind the factory.
The scene in the factory was so tragic, so he must have been involved with the kidnappers. Could it be that Lu Bancheng fell into the river?
Wu Hao's foot, which was originally on the accelerator, stepped on the brake again. He stared at the foggy road ahead for a moment, and finally, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and called one of the police officers he had a good relationship with. "Help me search the river behind the factory. Someone might have fallen into the water there."
"I'm not sure. It's just a guess, but I'll have to trouble you. I'll thank you in person later …"
After hanging up, Wu Hao was silent for two seconds before he started the car again and drove toward the city.
…
After Wu Hao finished bandaging the wound on his shoulder, he received a call from the police officer he knew.
"Mr. Wu, I did find a person in the river. He was in cahoots with the kidnappers …"
"Together with the kidnappers?" Wu Hao frowned. "Is there no one else?"
"That's it. The river isn't deep. We searched along the river for more than ten kilometers. There really isn't anyone else."
Wu Hao was lost in thought and did not say anything until the other party reminded him, "Mr. Wu, what's wrong? Could it be that you know of other people? "
Wu Hao came back to his senses. "No, the signal just now wasn't good. I didn't hear what you said. Thank you for last night."
"It's okay, Mr. Wu." After the policeman finished speaking, he asked, "By the way, Mr. Wu, we have to trouble you to come to the police station to make a statement. Do you have time now?"
"Yes, I'll be right there."
Before hanging up the phone, the policeman seemed to have thought of something and said, "Also, Mr. Wu, the kidnappers have confessed the person who instigated them. We have already brought her to the police station …"
