Chapter 396: Saving a Life-III

A few hours before Xiao Yun arrived at the Fashion Hall. Running his fingers through his black hair, Wang Li Lei's hair dropped down above the side of his cheekbones. Pushing his twin silver gun to the case which was attached to the side of his waist by a black belt to his white shirt. His necktie was absence from his collar, giving him the wild look he rarely had as he would appear neater often at times.

His black suit was hanging down on the hand of Jang Hyun who had prepared himself with little weapons as he like to move faster with lighter weapons. Wang Li Lei's eyes moved at his phone which was silent for now before he strode out of the building. The people of Dragon Group had stood out and gathered in front of the company, each having their grim expression. For today's occasion, Wang Corporation had ruled a full day holiday which made it easier for them to move without the frightening stares that would come from his employee. Wang Li Lei didn't mind the stares but he thought of it as a bother.

"We've received the message, master." Jang Hyun spoke from where he stood, and read the message sent by the kidnappers that had a brown wide envelope with a burner phone inside and a small card letter that said for Wang Li Lei to be the only person who should answer the phone and if he didn't, Zhao Min and his daughter's life will be no more.

Wang Li Lei took the phone to his hand, his eyes scrutinizing the model of the phone. It was a type of phone that would leave no tracks. The phones rarely used and often at times use to hide tracks of the called that lead to works that was better not known to people.

"It's going well as you predicted." said Jang Hyun there was amazement mixed as he uttered the words. Before going to commence the attack, Wang Li Lei had concluded many plans and moves of the enemy as if he had seen the future. Thinking so, Jang Hyun felt a subtle shudder on his body, remembering that Xiao Yun had come from the future to, to be specific, she had turned her time to the past again. However, he doubted Wang Li Lei had asked the lady about the future. Everything must have come from the frighteningly smart head of his.

"Everything is going well doesn't mean it's good enough." remarked Wang Li Lei and Jang Hyun knitted his brows in wonder led by his words. "You will bring the rest of the group. I leave everything to you."

"Wait, master." Jang Hyun stopped him, "Will you not wear the bulletproof vast?" asked Jang Hyun his hand bringing one.

"Wear it for yourself, I need none." he replied, his eyes shifting from the bullet proof to the secretary who was concerned of his well-being. He didn't see the need for a bulletproof vast now when he was sure he wouldn't die with the future that said he couldn't die.

"But, master. It would be dangerous as you go alone." Jang Hyun said reluctantly bringing the vest to his sight again.

Wang Li Lei stares at the vest and then on the second thought he turned an eye at the bulletproof, "Okay." this had the effect of a smile on Jang Hyun's face.

Wang Li Lei then had to abide by every of the kidnappers words. He was instructed to follow a train line and transported to a different station. From the station, she had to go out again and moved to the lowest train. There he was told to take a brown trunk which was small in size that was placed over the seat he was sitting at.

Standing up from his seat, Wang Li Lei pulled the trunk and eyed the case to see the code numbers to lock the case. The phone then ranged. It had been the tenth times the kidnappers had called him, as if they were afraid Wang Li Lei would go against them when he had done nothing. Yet.

"Bring it to the address I sent you." The voice that spoke was sharp and almost incoherent as the person had used a voice changer that made his voice a pitch higher than normal human's.

"Wait." said Wang Li Lei before the call ended. "Which brown trunk I should take?" At his words, the kidnappers frowned.

"What do you mean which?! There is only one!" the person spoke with a flustered tone that was easy to tell.

Wang Li Lei pulled two trunks and brought the two on the seat in front of him and calmly replied, "There is two. They are both same in design and color. I thought you know this?"

"What?!" The person gasped and for a good one minute, the call ended. Jamming the phone inside his trouser pocket, Wang Li Lei stared outside to the mirror in front of him and at the same time, the train passed a wide black board. Using the chance, Wang Li Lei eyed the people that followed him. One, four, eight, eleven.

That was a lot more than he thought, said Wang Li Lei internally. Out of the eleven, they were dresses casually and one of them was eyeing him passionately despite feigning a sleep. The phone rang again and picking it this time the kidnappers briefly instructed in a single sentence. "Bring both of them and remember a second late would cost this two people their hand.

"Let me speak with them." Wang Li Lei demanded and before the person could reject him he added, "If not, I can believe whether I'm saving a living people or a dead one."

The person clicked his tongue and dropped the call before it rang again and a voice came, "M-Mister Wang, p-please you can forget about me but my d-daughter..." It was Zhao Min. In his condition to speak was hard and every move of his mouth only tear his wound worse.

"What the fuck are you whispering for?!" the kidnapper shouted, by the voice it was a man. The words were directed at someone else and came the sound of slap.

"S-stop it!" a female's voice that he deemed to belong from Zhao Min's daughter came.

"Stop it." Wang Li Lei said with the growing sound of whacking and slammed. His mood fell down to the worse. His hand clenched the phone tight with his strong brows knitted in a fierce frown.

The kidnappers did stopped the beating as Wang Li Lei ordered. They didn't know whether Wang Li Lei is going to abandon or save Zhao Min and the best they could do is keep well their piece of trade. "At twelve. Not one second late." ordered the kidnappers before the call ended at that moment.

Taking the two trunk, Wang Li Lei left the train with his keen instinct detecting the eleven people who followed him.
