Chapter 267: Kidnapping

Xiao Bing called Yu Wenhua and told him about his plans for the next two days. Before he was about to hang up, Xiao Bing said, “Uncle Yu, there’s an underground casino in Harbin. I don’t know if you have heard about it. Their manager’s last name is Lu. The casino is beneath a mansion.”

Yu Wenhua fell silent for a moment and then asked in a deep voice, “Why are you interested in these things now?”

“I’m just a little curious.”

“Tell me, what is it about? You can’t possibly pop that question for no reason. Have you had contact with these people already?”

Xiao Bing found Yu Wenhua’s voice full of vigilance when he talked about it. It turned out that there indeed was something special about this casino.

Xiao Bing smiled. “My friend recommended this place to me and I went there… For some reason, they know that I’m Yu Miao’s friend. So they want me to help them to have a meeting with you.”

Yu Wenhua’s voice was softer after he heard that. “I see. They are just some speculators. You don’t have to care about them. The Long family is a big house. Your victory is not certain, no matter how perfect your plan is. Like I said, I don’t like that Lord Long either. If he wins, things will get out of control, which is not a good thing for the common people. Xiao Bing, I have arranged all my resources. Since I chose you this time, you must win this war for me.”

Xiao Bing grinned. “I won’t be worthy of being here and talking to you if I can’t defeat him with your support. Then I’ll go back. Uncle Yu, just wait for my good news.”

There was a hint of contemplation in Xiao Bing’s eyes after he hung up. “What’s special with this casino?” There had to be some reason that Yu Wenhua, the Vice Provincial Party Secretary, allowed this casino to exist. And the owner definitely wanted something more than just currying favor with Yu Wenhua. From Yu Wenhua’s tone of speaking, this casino sounded like a bane he should avoid.

However, just like Yu Wenhua had told him, it was not the time for him to pay any attention to this. He had to defeat the Long family, otherwise it would be a catastrophe.

Xiao Bing then called Lu Yuanlong. Though Lu Yuanlong was told that Yu Wenhua still didn’t want to see them, he didn’t sound surprised. But the disappointment in his voice was quite obvious. Soon after, they both hung up.

Xiao Bing rubbed his nose. He decided to not pay attention to them now and return to Jiang City.

He wanted to be with Yezi before the final war.

The moment he stepped into the elevator, a man in black came in and stood beside Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing looked at this man as the door closed slowly. “Are you one of Luo Xiaomi’s guards?”

The man in black said coldly, “She asked you to go to the casino to play a round with her. Before that, you can’t go anywhere.”

Xiao Bing was dumbfounded. “So you’ve been at my door since this morning?”

“Since last night.”

“…”

It was ridiculous. Xiao Bing wondered if all of the youth were like her. He rubbed his nose and managed a wry smile. “What if I must leave?”

“Then you’ll be tied up and taken there.”

“What if you can’t beat me?”

“We’ll see.”

“We shall see.” Then Xiao Bing punched this man in the face. The man in black was shocked and then he passed out. Then Xiao Bing walked out of the elevator when the door opened. He murmured quite helplessly, “You asked for this. I had not expected that there are people who like being punched…”

Xiao Bing saw the two siblings walking out of the hotel entrance when he was about to leave. He instantly hid. He was not afraid of them. He merely didn’t want to be bothered by them because he already had so much business to deal with.

After Luo Hao walked out with his sister, he asked, “Where should we head?”

Luo Xiaomi pouted. “The casino. I don’t believe that I will still be that unlucky.”

Luo Hao asked, “You still want to gamble?”

“You think I was joking? I have to beat that jerk. I’ve asked Jian to watch over him for me. If he insists on leaving, Jian will knock him down and bring him to the casino.”

Xiao Bing’s hearing was superior. “Your Jian has been knocked out by me.” In the meantime, he found that he liked this girl less and less. If it weren’t for Xiao Bing not wanting to get caught up in another spot of trouble, he would love to teach this self-centered girl a lesson; otherwise, she would never know that there was always someone better than her.

Luo Hao nodded after hearing it. “I don’t like that man either. I hope that he will refuse so that Jian will punch the crap out of him. But I don’t think he will fight back, will he?”

“Does it matter? Take one look at his wandering eyes and you will know that he knows nothing aside from drinking and whoring. Jian is a professional bodyguard. It’ll be a piece of cake for him.”

Then a truck pulled over in front of the hotel, separating them from their car.

Luo Hao bellowed, “Get the hell out of my way.”

“Sorry. We’re here only to unload some things. We will be on our way soon.”

Then out from the truck jumped several men who began unloading some steel pipes. Seeming contemptuous, Luo Hao was about to speak. But suddenly, darkness loomed over him. The workers who were carrying the pipes suddenly came for him while still holding the pipes. Everyone was shocked when seeing this.

Two of the three that were standing beside Luo Hao and his sister were knocked down instantly. The remaining one put his arms in front of his chest to defend himself. The steel pipe hit his arms with an audible clang, but he only took two steps back. It was obvious that this man was at least at the pinnacle of Clear-strength.

But at the moment when he had to take two steps back, these men had already taken control of Luo Hao and Luo Xiaomi. They dragged the two kids into a van and drove off, leaving the truck they had driven in right there.

The strongest guard bellowed a curse. Then he ran to his car. While he was about to get in, he found that there was already a person sitting next to the driver’s seat. He heard a cold voice when he intended to drag this man out. “You don’t want to rescue them? Start the car immediately!”

That voice belonged to Xiao Bing. Although Xiao Bing didn’t like the two siblings, he would not allow a kidnapping to happen under his nose. So he immediately went to the guard’s car without any hesitation.

Knowing that Xiao Bing didn’t mean him any harm, the guard instantly drove after that van. But the van had driven far already, which made it hard for them to catch it.

This was no time to obey the traffic rules. The bodyguard was driving as fast as he could. Xiao Bing asked leisurely, “What’s your name?”

“What?”

“What’s your name? Don’t be so nervous.”

“Wu Tian. My lord and lady have been kidnapped. Please don’t bother me.”

Xiao Bing shook his head. “You are now at the Concealing-strength Stage, right? You should calm yourself first when encountering such things. Otherwise, how can you progress?”

Wu Tian was surprised. He found that he had been underestimating this man who could easily make others belittle his power. He deemed it so ridiculous that his Luo Xiaomi and her brother planned to take this man to the casino. He had never expected that he would meet a powerful master who liked to pretend to be weak.

Wu Tian thought he might need this man’s help if he wanted to rescue the two siblings. So he became respectful instantly. “Dragon Master, indeed my lord and lady were rude to you, considering how young they are…”

“You don’t need to say all that. I would not be in this car if I didn’t want to save them. I suppose it has not been long since you’ve reached the Concealing-strength Stage. If they have more armed men, it’s highly likely that you will fail. Just wait for me when we arrive there. I assure you that they will not be harmed.”

Wu Tian sighed out of relief. He then asked prudently, “Dragon Master, may I know your true strength?”

Xiao Bing cast him a glance and said, “It’s something beyond your understanding.”

Wu Tian knew that he should stop asking upon hearing that.

The driver of that car was very sly. Besides that, there were many cars on the road and it was a little bit late when Wu Tian started driving, so gradually they lost track of their target. Wu Tian pulled over and patted the steering wheel with chagrin. He took out his cellphone, seemingly intending to make a call. Xiao Bing asked, “Wait, who are you going to call?”

“Their father.”

“Don’t be so worried. I might be able to help you.” Xiao Bing made a call to Yu Wenhua. Since Yu Wenhua was in charge of the police system of Hei Province, Xiao Bing thought he was the best person to turn to at the moment.

Yu Wenhua had not expected that Xiao Bing would call him again so soon. He even thought that something had gone wrong. But before he could speak, he heard Xiao Bing say, “Uncle Yu, Luo Daoyi’s grandchildren were just kidnapped in Harbin. They are in a car with the kidnappers.”

Yu Wenhua was shocked. “Why are they in Harbin and how do you know about it? Do you know who kidnapped them? Where are they going?”

Xiao Bing said, “I’ll answer that later. Uncle Yu, can you help me find out the travel direction of the van that appeared in front of the hotel located at No. 22, Xinghe Road?”

“Okay. Just wait for my reply. I’ll call you back soon.”

Then Yu Wenhua hung up in all haste, which was something Xiao Bing had known he would do. If something bad happened to someone from the Luo family, the reputation of the whole police system in Hei Province might deteriorate, which would bring shame upon Yu Wenhua.

As he had expected, Yu Wenhua called him back merely five minutes later. He sounded angry on the phone. “The car now is on Tongda Road. It seems that they are heading toward the northern suburb. I’ll send some policemen to rescue them.”

“Don’t worry. Uncle Yu, they might change their direction at any time. Please ask your men to keep an eye on that. I’ll find ways to save the two. I can assure you of that.”

Then Xiao Bing shot Wu Tian a glance and said, “Tongda Road!”
