After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.
Chapter 139 Don't Get on That Car
at the same time.
81 Broadcast Drive.
Lin Jianming, the eldest son of the Lin family, stepped out of the ATV building, with his secretary following closely beside him.
cool!
The old man finally relented and began to gradually hand over the affairs of the Lin family to him. Once his father passed away, wouldn't the entire Lin family estate be his?
In a great mood, Lin Jianming casually dialed one of the women on his phone.
He immediately said, "Amy, where is she? Coin Deutsche Hotel, room 909, I'll come and wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Daheng's games flashed through his mind again... Tsk tsk, golf? Interesting!
So Lin Jianming turned the steering wheel and went straight to a nearby club, where he bought two golf balls.
Upon seeing him, the shop assistant greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Lin, are you here to buy golf balls too?"
Lin Jianming was taken aback: "Also?"
The shop assistant nodded: "Yes, this item is selling quite well today."
Lin Jianming cursed inwardly, "These guys, they're all so good at having fun, they're really damn extravagant!"
As he drove away, he didn't even notice that a car was hanging on him from a short distance behind him.
Lam Kin-ming was known for his wild lifestyle and found bodyguards a nuisance, so he usually drove his sports car all over Hong Kong Island by himself.
The car drove all the way to the coastal road, which was very far off course, and we couldn't see a single passing car.
Just then.
Not long after the bend ahead, Lin Jianming suddenly saw a masked thug standing in the middle of the road, holding a submachine gun with the muzzle pointed directly at his car.
Lin Jianming's face turned pale instantly, and he slammed on the brakes in fright.
squeak--
The tires screeched loudly.
His first reaction was to turn around and run away.
Before he could make a move, a van came rushing up from behind and blocked the sports car.
The car door opened, and two more masked thugs got out.
Two submachine guns were raised simultaneously, their dark muzzles pointed at him.
The group approached step by step.
One of them said coldly, "Young Master Lin, be smart and don't cause trouble!"
Another shouted, "Hands up, behave yourself!"
Lin Jianming dared not resist any longer and quickly raised his hands high. At this point, even he, in his daze, would understand—he had been kidnapped!
His voice trembled: "Don't kill me!"
Lin Jianming panicked and begged for mercy repeatedly: "I have money, lots of money! I'll give you as much as you want, just let me go!"
Soon, his hands were tied behind his back, a black cloth bag was put over his head, and he was stuffed into a van and secured tightly to the back seat with rope.
As for the sports car, it was quickly fitted with a fake license plate.
withdraw!
The entire process was clean and efficient, leaving no unnecessary traces.
It all comes down to one word—professionalism!
A long time passed before vehicles passed by the coastal road, but no one knew that a kidnapping had occurred there not long ago.
……
……
Four hours passed without anyone noticing that Lin Jianming had disappeared.
Although he had arranged to meet Amy at room 909 of the Grand Hotel, Amy waited in the room for an hour without seeing him, and she couldn't get through to him on the phone. She assumed that Lin Jianming had gone to see another woman again, and left the hotel in a huff.
In contrast, things were completely different for John Jr.
After discovering that John was missing, the old butler Will immediately used the Daigo Group's network of connections in Hong Kong to investigate.
He dared not notify the police for the time being.
If the kidnappers become desperate and kill the hostage, then we'll be in big trouble.
Therefore, he could only report the news to Old John first.
When old John found out, he was naturally furious!
Three hours passed...
Four hours passed...
Five hours have passed...
"Ring ring ring~~~~"
Inside the villa on Victoria Peak, the telephone finally rang.
Will, the old butler, took it immediately.
A voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Daigo's guy?"
With a pebble between his teeth, Da Dong deliberately made his voice sound strange: "Your young master John is in our hands now!"
Wow!
Will abruptly stood up from his seat, forcefully suppressing his rage.
He asked in a deep voice, "Did you take our young master away?"
At the same time, he raised his hand and gestured to the team next to him.
His men immediately began tracking the call signal.
Da Dong bluntly stated, "Yes, we did it!"
Will suppressed his anger and tried to keep his tone as calm as possible: "What exactly do you want?"
Da Dong smiled: "One billion Hong Kong dollars! That's roughly 128 million US dollars. To make it sound nicer, let's say 150 million US dollars!"
BOOM!
One hundred and fifty million US dollars!
Even though Will was mentally prepared, he almost had a heart attack from anger when he heard the number.
Outrageous!
In previous kidnapping cases, asking for a few million was already a lot, and tens of millions was the absolute maximum. But these kidnappers asked for 150 million US dollars!
Why not just rob a bank?
Of course, for the Daigo Group, 150 million US dollars is not entirely out of reach.
Will said, "I can give you the money, but I need to make sure the young master is still alive first. Let me hear his voice."
Da Dong replied, "Okay."
Soon, John's voice, choked with sobs, came through the phone, sounding almost like a woman's: "Will! Help me! Please help me, Will!"
Will quickly reassured him, "Young Master, don't panic. Are you hurt?"
John cried out, sobbing, "I'm not hurt, but they tied me up and put a bomb vest on me. Will, please get me out of here..."
With the person confirmed to be temporarily safe, Will finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He immediately said, "Young master, don't be afraid, I will definitely find a way to rescue you."
Just then, the security guard next to him gave him an "OK" sign.
Phone tracking successful!
Will's eyes turned cold, and he nodded slightly.
Da Dong's voice came through the receiver again: "As for when the transaction will take place, I will let you know later."
Will said, "You'll have to give me more time. Converting all 150 million dollars into cash isn't that easy."
He said this not simply to delay payment.
Will knew very well that as long as he could buy more time, he could set up a trap.
As an international conglomerate, Daigo maintains a professional security team on Hong Kong Island. Its members are mainly selected from retired military elites from all over the world, including some tough guys who have retired from top special forces like Delta Force in the United States.
As long as the kidnappers dare to show their faces, these elites can follow the clues, track them down, and pinpoint their hiding place.
however……
"Cash? Hahaha~~~"
Da Dong suddenly burst into laughter: "Your vision is too narrow!"
He then added sarcastically, "What era are we living in? What kidnapper still uses cash for transactions?"
Old John: "..."
Da Dong sneered, "Don't even think about contacting us. Save your energy. By the way, this call went through three lines before finally reaching you. Even if you find the location of the first phone line now, it's useless."
Old John: "..."
At that moment, he finally realized that things were getting complicated.
This is really troublesome!
These robbers were so well-prepared that they even anticipated their reactions; they were definitely not small fry who could be easily dealt with.
Old John glanced at the time.
Fifteen twenty-one.
He coldly ordered, "Arrange for 150 million US dollars!"
The subordinate immediately replied, "Yes!"
But old John had no idea that what these kidnappers wanted was more than just money.
What they really want to do is cause trouble!
Just as Old John began making arrangements, ATV and TVB received a videotape almost simultaneously.
……
……
ATV Building.
"Another videotape?"
This feeling is so familiar!
The news department staff member's hand trembled, and they immediately realized that another explosive news story was about to break.
The videotape was played quickly.
The moment the screen lit up, the first sentence caused an uproar throughout the news department.
"My name is Huo Yuanjia..."
"It's him!"
"That guy who robbed the armored truck!"
"Johnny's number one ruthless henchman!"
"Good heavens, he still hasn't left Hong Kong Island!"
Almost everyone in the news department was drawn to it.
Before long, the office was buzzing with excitement again.
"What? The heir of the Daigo Group has been kidnapped?"
"A price tag of $150 million?"
"My God!"
Everyone in the news department felt a chill run down their spine.
This news is absolutely devastating!!
