Chapter 1506: Chapter 1499: The Final Choice (5)

"Wait and see." The other party said and then hung up the phone directly.

Qin Zhiyou, of course, wouldn’t foolishly go there alone; naturally, he had informed the police. He switched his phone, but he also knew the Secretary Wang’s mobile number. This indicated that the person who kidnapped Lu Weixi definitely knew about their relationship.

At first, he suspected Zhao Zihao or the second or third branch of the family, but now he thinks, was his thinking too simplistic? However, thinking more now is of no use; the key is that Secretary Wang’s phone must also be commandeered for connection analysis.

Although the number was changed, the plainclothes officers also made gains. First of all, they intelligently recorded the audio from Secretary Wang’s call, and from the recording, one could hear a loud wind background and bird calls. These bird calls were quite unique, and after analysis, they were identified as belonging to a type of goose, and coincidentally, there is habitat for this kind of bird near Yan City— in a wetland park not far from the northwest mountain range reservoir. This confirmed that heading towards the northwest reservoir direction was definitely not wrong.

Furthermore, the kidnappers’ numbers, after analysis, turned out to be Hong Kong numbers and the kind designed for tourists’ temporary use, which don’t require identity registration. No wonder the previous tracking efforts were extremely difficult because they weren’t using their real numbers, and moreover, it was from overseas!

Because there was no identity verification, tracking presented some difficulty. But the criminal investigation personnel still analyzed that the signal source originated near the northwest reservoir. Several pieces of information matched perfectly, and now everyone could finally search the northwest reservoir with confidence and boldness.

On Qin Zhiyou’s side, because of that recent call, after consulting with the criminal investigation personnel, he decided that if another call came asking him to act alone, he would follow the kidnapper’s instructions and go by himself. Of course, his car was equipped with a tracking device, and his phone also had a built-in surveillance system capable of remote analysis. They would also follow but maintain a certain distance, and not mobilize like last time, when a swarm of cars drove over and it was obvious that it was a collective entry into the mountains.

Waiting was torturous, but naturally, Qin Zhiyou’s torture wasn’t limited to just this. After last night’s U.S. stock market, when daylight arrived the next day, it still showed no signs of improvement. And at this time, Zhao Zihao came over with words. His arrival, naturally, was to kick someone while they were down.

He directly stated: "President Qin, given the current state of Hanhai, we at Zhongtian Steel reserve our opinions on continuing the partnership with you. If Hanhai cannot perform better in the U.S. stock market, and domestic issues are not perfectly resolved, plus, you continue to block our attempts to buy shares at a discounted rate. For the second phase of investment in the demonstration zone, we will take a wait-and-see approach."

Not only did he make his stance clear, but he also purposefully released it on the official Weibo account, making the news spread wildly and hitting the hot search, broadcasting it far and wide.

In short, the previous cooperation they had wouldn’t involve them providing money or investing anymore. At the time, it was difficult to attract investments for the demonstration zone project, and when Zhongtian Steel stepped in, though they agreed to all of Qin Zhiyou’s demands like not participating in the construction but only in the financial investment, with the profits divided according to Hanhai’s requirements, they still retained one condition: If a major incident occurred at Hanhai, Zhongtian could withdraw their investment and make compensation claims against Hanhai.

It was this last condition that exploded at this time.
