According to the original plan, they would soon be able to meet up with the children.
Originally, Wen Shaoqing informed the police just in case. Who knew that this trafficker was an international criminal and was extremely vigilant?
After thinking it over, he decided not to return the child and directly ordered his men to turn the bow and go back.
Wen Shaoqing knew that Bai Xiao was worried, and only replied him softly, "It's fine, you go in first. I'll go with the police to take a look later."
Bai Xiao's heart immediately became heavy. Wen Shaoqing stepped forward and pulled Bai Xiao away, "Song Zhe has also brought people over. Believe me, you must definitely bring the child back safely."
Bai Xiao knew that Wen Shaoqing was trying to console him, but he still nodded.
Just like that, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder on the bow of the ship. Time passed, minute by minute.
Song Zhe came in the fast boat, and when he arrived, he boarded the boat.
"How is it? Did you get any news from your side?" Wen Shaoqing asked anxiously.
"I've already asked my subordinate about this. The other party is not answering the phone at all. Then, I sent a letter saying that there were hidden guards, so I left. " Song Zhe explained the situation to Wen Shaoqing.
Only then did Wen Shaoqing realize that the police following them had scared the traffickers, if not they wouldn't have ended up like this.
"What do you think?" Wen Shaoqing asked Song Zhe.
Song Zhe shook his head: "If the other party doesn't believe us, we won't be able to contact them. But I don't think they would dare to act rashly. After all, escaping is more important. This was still a bargaining chip at the end. For now, he would look at the situation of the police. I've secretly sent people to follow them, so make some preparations. "
Wen Shaoqing nodded, this was the only way.
"Have someone try to contact them and tell them that as long as they are willing to let the child go, they can agree to any conditions and we can coordinate with the police." Wen Shaoqing looked at Song Zhe.
Song Zhe nodded, then arranged for his subordinates to communicate with the other party.
After that, he lit a cigarette. "Don't worry about it, I'll just say it directly if I have anything to say. Don't take it to heart."
"Speak!" "Help me analyze it too." Wen Shaoqing's heart was also very chaotic.
Song Zhe took a drag on his cigarette, "I think we should let the police force them to do it first. Only when we are out of options will we negotiate. But at the same time, I was able to get my men to negotiate with him on how to exchange hostages. If they were to look for him now, he wouldn't bother with it. Right now, his only thought was to escape. Escaping is the best, is there a need to negotiate with me? "
Wen Shaoqing felt that Song Zhe's words were reasonable, but the truth was that the trafficker had already chosen to escape.
Why would he negotiate with me now? Of course, escaping first was more important, as long as he could escape. Only when he felt that there was no hope would he think of negotiating with himself in private.
"Do you think the child is still alive?" Wen Shaoqing asked the question that he was most worried about out of the bottom of his heart.
Song Zhe nodded his head, "He should still be alive, as long as the child's own health is alright. I don't think they're going to do anything to the kids yet. However, he couldn't force it too hard either. If you force them too hard, it will make it easier for them to have evil intentions. They were all crazy people. Otherwise, I wouldn't be doing such impersonal business. "
Wen Shaoqing felt that Song Zhe's words made sense, and he immediately communicated with the police.
By this time, the police had turned from dark to light, and at the same time the water stations were rounding up.
Now that he heard Wen Shaoqing's meaning, he decided to drive the trafficker towards the shore.
It was easier to move on land, as the changes on the river were too great to control.
