Mu Shuang pointed at the fence and asked uncertainly, "Are you going to jump over the fence?"
Brother Li said bitterly, "There's an infrared alarm on the fence. If I jump in, it will trigger the alarm. Uncle Guang will come out from the gatehouse when he hears the alarm. That will also alert the kidnappers."
Mu Shuang saw that they couldn't enter from the main entrance and couldn't jump over the fence. She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She shouted in despair, "Then how can we get in and save my father?"
Li Rui interrupted and gave a good idea. "Do any of you have Uncle Guang's phone number? Give him a call and tell him the truth. Ask him to turn off the alarm and then jump over the fence. We can't enter from the main entrance at any time. If the kidnappers are still inside, they must be paying attention to the main entrance all the time. "
Brother Li was stunned when he heard that. He turned to look at Li Rui and said dumbly, "Why didn't I think of that?" He then said to Mu Shuang, "I have Uncle Guang's phone number. I'll call him now." He then took out his phone in a hurry.
Li Rui looked at him with a smile. He thought to himself, You're all brawn and no brains. You don't even know your place. You said in front of the Young Master that you're going to leave everything to me. Haha, if I really leave everything to you, I can only watch you get into trouble.
After the call, Brother Li said to Mu Shuang, "Then don't call the police first. I'll jump over the northeast fence. That's the kidnappers' blind spot. Then, I'll think of a way to sneak into the building and check the situation. If there's a chance, I'll defeat the kidnappers and save the boss."
Li Rui said, "I'll go in with you. Mu Shuang, stay outside and wait for us."
Mu Shuang didn't have a better idea. She frowned and said, "Okay, then you two have to be careful."
Brother Li and Li Rui didn't waste any time. They immediately turned around the corner of the southeast fence and walked north along the fence. Mu Shuang stayed where she was and looked at the Audi parked at the entrance. She was deep in thought.
Brother Li led Li Rui to the north of the eastern section of the fence. They looked around and saw that there were no suspicious people in the yard. Then, they climbed up on both sides. The gatekeeper, Uncle Guang, had already turned off the infrared alarm system, so the two of them could cross freely without worrying about triggering the alarm.
With a soft sound, Brother Li and Li Rui landed on the soft lawn in the courtyard almost at the same time. Li Rui landed slightly earlier. Brother Li noticed that Li Rui's movements were agile and flexible. He seemed to have been trained before, so he couldn't help but take another look at him.
Li Rui asked in a low voice, "How do we get in?"
Brother Li was a little confused and said, "What do you mean by how to get in? Of course we're going in. "
Li Rui shook his head. "That's not what I meant. What I meant was, how do we get into that big house? Can we go through the front door or the back door? "
Brother Li said, "My boss's house does have a back door, but it's usually locked. Luckily, I have the key with me. Let's go over there first. I'll go around to the main entrance and observe. If there's no one guarding the main entrance, we'll go in through the main entrance. "
Li Rui asked, "Won't the kidnappers find you if you walk around the main entrance?"
Brother Li rolled his eyes. Obviously, he wasn't sure. He seemed to be thinking about the villa's floor-to-ceiling windows and the visibility of the balcony. After a while, he shook his head and said, "I'll try my best to stick close to the wall. If I find something wrong, I'll come back."
Li Rui made a quick decision and said, "Let's prepare for both eventualities. You give me the key to the back door, then you go in from the main entrance and I'll go in from the back door. It's more efficient this way, and we can avoid being discovered by the kidnappers at the same time. Describe the environment of the building to me again, then we'll take action. "
After hearing what he said, Brother Li finally realized that he wasn't an ordinary person. He was an expert who had a lot of experience in dealing with such situations. If it were an ordinary person like Mu Shuang, they would've been confused and wouldn't know what to do when faced with such a violent emergency. However, this person could still make a clear and organized plan. Even if Brother Li was a retired special forces soldier and almost a professional bodyguard, he wouldn't be able to think of such details. A sense of admiration grew in his heart, and he asked, "Are you a police officer?"
Li Rui shook his head and said, "Let's talk about this later. Hurry up and tell me about the environment of the house."
Brother Li said, "After a while, you'll open the back door. When you enter, you'll see a long and narrow corridor that goes north-south. On the left side of the corridor is a storage room. It's not locked, and on the right side is the staircase. Above you is the stairs that lead to the second floor. After you walk out of the corridor, you'll see the living room on the first floor in front of you, and on your right side is the staircase. You don't need to know about the other places because you won't need them. At this time, the boss should be in the study or bedroom on the second floor. I think there's a ninety percent chance that he's in the bedroom because his relationship with Bai Meiping is going to have a breakthrough today. He came home early after dinner with Bai Meiping and even asked me to bring the bird's nest home for his parents. I feel that something is going to happen between them … "
As he said that, he suddenly realized something and exclaimed, "Ah, I understand now. This is Bai Meiping's trap. She has already decided to take action tonight, so she hinted to the boss during dinner and made him think that it was going to be a happy night. He brought her home. She gave me the bird's nest and asked me to bring it home for my parents. She wants me to leave so that I won't be a hindrance to her … All of this is her trap. Aiya, I'm so stupid. Why didn't I think of it earlier? "
Li Ruixin said, "I can't blame you for being stupid. Who would've thought that the woman who was about to become the mistress of the house would team up with an outsider to kidnap the boss?" He asked in confusion, "Where's Mu Shuang's mother?"
"She passed away a long time ago!"
Li Rui nodded in realization and said, "Alright, there's no point in talking too much. Let's go. Give me the key to the back door and be careful."
Brother Li took out a small round plastic film and handed it over. Li Rui took it and turned his phone to silent mode. Brother Li took out a half-foot-long black stun baton from his waist and handed it over. "You might need it."
Li Rui didn't stand on ceremony. He took it and looked at the buttons. "What are you going to use if you give it to me?" he asked.
Brother Li said, "I still have a baton. I hope I won't need it. Let's go."
The two of them looked at each other and gave each other an encouraging look. They got up and ran towards the three-story villa in the middle of the courtyard. In just a few breaths, the two of them arrived at the back door of the villa. Brother Li pointed at the back door to Li Rui, indicating that he could enter from there. Then, he went around to the front door.
Li Rui didn't care about him. He put his ear to the joint between the back door and the door frame. It was quiet inside. There was no movement. Then, he took out the round electronic access card and put it on the sensor of the door lock. There was a soft squeak, and a green light flashed. The door was unlocked. Li Rui held the doorknob and twisted it gently and slowly. He opened the door slowly. During this process, other than the slight sound of the lock, there was no other sound.
When the door was halfway open, Li Rui stopped. He held the stun baton tightly in his right hand and put his thumb on the switch. He turned sideways and went through the door. There was a long and narrow corridor behind the door. It was very dark, but there was a light at the end. It was probably because of the light from the stairs. Li Rui listened for about ten seconds. After he was sure that no one was walking or talking, he slowly moved forward step by step.
It had been about 15 minutes since Mu Shuang received the call, and the kidnappers hadn't left yet. Mu Shuang's father was in a very dangerous situation. However, it could also be inferred that he hadn't transferred the money to Bai Meiping yet. Maybe he was discussing with the two kidnappers, or maybe he was in the process of transferring the money. It was impossible that he had rejected Bai Meiping's request. Otherwise, Bai Meiping and Li Rui would have tied him up and run away. After all, it was not safe to stay in his house for a long time.
Li Rui slowly moved to the end of the corridor. From here, he could see the stairs and the luxurious living room not far away. Li Rui stopped and looked around. He didn't see anyone on the first floor. Instead, he saw Brother Li through the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. Brother Li was touching the front door. His sneaky movements were very funny.
However, Li Rui couldn't find it funny. He hesitated for a while and decided not to wait for Brother Li to come in. Instead, he went to the second floor to check on Old Mu's condition. He had to do it anyway. It was better to do it early than late. He glanced at the solid wooden stairs, took off his leather shoes, went around the stairs, and climbed up the stairs like a nimble leopard cat. He tried his best not to make any noise. Just as he reached the corner of the stairs, he suddenly heard a low conversation from the corridor on the left of the second floor. It was a man and a woman talking in Mandarin, so he could understand what they were saying.
"Why are you waiting for Auntie?" It was a man's voice, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
"I'm thinking … if there are any traces left behind." It was a woman's voice. It should be Bai Meiping. Her tone was a little hesitant.
"Hmph, it's not your first time doing it. You're already a veteran among veterans. What kind of traces can you leave behind? Don't tell me you've fallen in love with this old pervert? "
"Nonsense! How is that possible? "
"Hmph, I'm talking nonsense? It could have been done in one or two months, but you just had to drag it out for four or five months. You even dragged it out until you're about to get engaged with him. What kind of ideas are you having in your mind? Do you think I don't know? "The male kidnapper was very angry when he said this.
Bai Meiping said angrily, "What kind of ideas are you talking about? What nonsense are you talking about? "
The male kidnapper shouted even more angrily, "I'm talking nonsense? Don't think I don't know. You think that since the old pervert loves you so much, you should just marry him. When he dies, you can directly inherit half of his wealth, which is a few billion yuan. That way, you won't have to work so hard with me and risk your life to earn some money. That's what you think, right? "
Bai Meiping scolded, "You'd better shut up immediately before I get angry! You idiot! If I really thought that way, why would I have done it to him tonight? "
The male kidnapper sneered and said, "Who knows what kind of things are in your head?"
