Chapter 230 Being Suspected Of Kidnapping
Kent had got used to his working style now. So he didn't need to be as busy as he was before. He left when he said goodbye to his subordinates in the afternoon.
Kent had the freedom to work, so it was not a big problem for him to occasionally be late or leave early. Moreover, he was the leader of such a group who were always charmed by him.
Those who saw him busy were eager to see him skip work and have a good rest every day.
But when facing tough things, they hoped Kent would be on duty all the time. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
All in all, in addition to thinking hard about news and articles every day, they were struggling about how to make Kent have the best rest.
Kent went to the pharmacy to buy some tonic and fruits, and then set out according to the address given by Melinda.
He was a little nervous. Having known Melinda for such a long time, he rarely saw her family. But this made him feel like meeting her parents before marriage. He hoped that he could get a good favor from her father and win a key for him to win the heart of Melinda.
In his impression, Vern was always serious with a poker face. Although he spoiled Melinda, he always hid that behind his sternness.
At the building where Vern was, there happened to be a parking lot. Kent always pursued perfection in doing things. So when a car was parked, it was in the middle of the parking space steadily.
As soon as he unfastened his seat belt, he saw a group of people walking out of the stairway. They were in black and looked fierce. Their eyes were still staring around.
They were all tall and strong. Suddenly, Kent's pupils narrowed sharply, and his eyes were full of shock. Among the big men, there was a man in tawny clothes, and he was Melinda's father.
After they had tied the man to the car, Kent had no time to think more about it. He fastened the seat belt, started the car and followed them. He quickly memorized the plate number and the specific features of the man.
"Hello, is it 110? I have to report a case. There were kidnappers in the Xia apartment located at the..." Kent told all the information he knew to the police and reminded the police to set out as soon as possible. He would follow them carefully to avoid losing their positions.
His car was relatively common and low-key, so those people did not notice that a little tail was following behind them.
In the CEO office of Soaring Group, Jonas was in a good mood these days, which was sensed by everyone. Although his face was still cold, he was not that indifferent.
William told Ted Guan that sometimes when boss was lost in thought, he would suddenly laugh out.
At first, he was scared of him, but later he found boss a little cute.
Ted was promoted to a personal assistant by a few accidental encounters, when he completed the tasks perfectly, and now he was one of the important assistant of Jonas like William.
Although they were doing different things, they were both equally important.
But at this time, the face of Jonas was quite gloomy, and the emotionless eyes made people tremble with fear.
When William was in the CEO's office, he felt like that he was in the snowing north.
He wondered what did Ted say to boss through the phone.
"I see. Keep an eye on them,"
said Jonas, looking at William, who instantly stood straight.
"If there's anything in the company, you can call my grandpa. If he asks, just tell him that I have to go on a business trip for some reason. Got it?"
Ted was promoted by him, and William was promoted by Nelson.
"I see, boss." William was very tired. His identity was a little embarrassed.
Jonas left in a hurry. He knew that Melinda's father had been kidnapped and must be taken care of as soon as possible, otherwise Melinda would be worried if she knew.
Since Jonas had been in touch with Ted, he didn't say much in the office just now for fear of being heard by others. Now he got in the car and reminded Ted.
"Use all your connections to find Mr. Vern as soon as possible. Melinda can't be jarred during her pregnancy. Remember not to let her know about it."
Ted answered yes immediately. William was the assistant on the business of Jonas's company, and he was in charge of these hidden things.
He was grateful for being promoted by Jonas, so he worked harder.
After exchanging some information, Ted began to investigate the matter at once. Vern lived in a community which was not a prosperous area, but it had everything he needed.
He could see from the surveillance video that Vern was caught by several men in black. At the beginning, several people blocked the license plate number, and after a long time, all the people got on
the car.
Ted immediately checked the plate number and found it was a fake number.
"Can we find any information from this fake license plate?" Ted asked. These people were his helping hands, and also his most trusted bros.
"Man, don't be ridiculous. How should we investigate the fake number?" The man in charge of collecting information also felt this matter was tricky, but he felt that he neglected something.
Ted frowned. These people were obviously repeat criminals. Generally speaking, such a person had criminal record or organization, so his idea was smoothly arranged.
"Play the surveillance video backwards," Ted said, and the man in charge played the video backwards. Ted stared at the video and suddenly shouted, "Stop!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the scene. Ted pointed at a man's neck and said, "Magnify this."
As soon as the man, who had just said Ted was ridiculous, seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes were lit up. Soon after, cold water was poured onto his face. The man who was controlling the video had no choice but to say, "All the surveillance cameras in this area are old, and it is not very clear."
Ted noticed that there seemed to be a mark on the man's neck. But it was dark when the mark was enlarged, so nobody could tell who the man was.
There was a dark area in A City. All kinds of people mixed up and formed gangs. They were used to helping people do something dark. It was obvious that those people were from that area.
"Ask your men, and see if they can figure out whose gang they are in." They took out their phones to investigate it.
Ted was also thinking, but what he thought was that he would ask boss to change the monitoring videos as soon as he found Vern, so that he would not delay the work next time.
The news came soon. It was a member of a small gang. He asked some people and found out the man behind the scenes. "He said he doesn't know the name of that man, but he looks like Mr. Jonas."
"I know who did it."
Jerry, who had disappeared for a long time, flashed through Ted's mind. Damn it. He never thought that he would make a comeback.
He didn't dare to delay for a moment and quickly contacted Jonas.
"It was Jerry." Ted was reporting the progress to Jonas. Although they knew who did it, they could not find out where they were now.
"Keep investigating. Contact me as soon as you get any news."
Jonas' eyes were full of anger. Last time he let him go, he did not learn a lesson and hit his attention on Linda.
At the same time, Kent followed the car all the way to the abandoned building. There was no bricks around the empty building, and many bamboo shelves were placed on it, and the ground was full of hard cement and sand.
The car stopped steadily. Kent had been waiting for the action of those people, but no one got out of the car for a long time. Just when he was almost unable to wait, a person got out of the car.
The man wore a black suit and a pair of sneakers. He looked a little comical.
From a distance, he looked like Jonas. Kent frowned and Jerry came close to him with a smile. When he saw Kent, he greeted him politely, "Well down, you follow me all the way here."
From the smile on his face, Kent could tell that they had already known that he was following them.
Kent became calm. He thought he had covered it well but didn't find that he had already exposed himself.
"Stop looking. He is not here."
Seeing that Kent was still staring at the car behind him, Jerry couldn't help but say. They had already transferred Vern to another car on the way and let Jerry drive the car away.
When Jerry remembered that his original plan was destroyed by this man and almost destroyed again this time, he hated Kent.
"Where are you taking him?" asked Kent. He was a little annoyed that he did not notice such a big move. After a second thought, he found that the chaos on the road might not be an accident.
That was only their cover.
"That's none of your business. You just need to know that you are no match for me,"
Jerry said proudly. He thought that Emily was useless since she had always been scrupulous to someone like Kent.
Kent glared at Jerry. Seeing his complacent look, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile. "Do you really think you have won?"
Just then, several policemen in plain clothes got out of the car that had been following Kent, and surrounded Jerry in an instant.
"You call the police?!"
Jerry looked at Kent with his eyes wide open. He thought he had gained the victory, but he did not expect that Kent had a card up his sleeve. Seeing that he could not believe what he had seen, Kent was a little confused.
He really couldn't understand what Jerry was thinking.
"We live in a society ruled by law."
As Kent said, he nodded to the policemen. One of them came forward and quickly took Jerry under control and handcuffed him.
"You are suspected of being involved in a kidnapping case, come with us to the police station to investigate."
Jerry struggled and shouted, "You don't have any evidence. You can't take me."
The policemen had long been accustomed to such a scene. Every time these people called and threatened them, once they unlocked the handcuffs, they would figure out a way to escape quickly.
"If we have proof, you are not just on suspicion," the policeman said and snorted. If they had evidence, Jerry would be a criminal for kidnapping.
Jerry was still shouting over there, which made the several people feel very annoyed. "You'd better tell the truth earlier, so that you can get an extenuation of your crime. It's useless to shout."
