1041: Chapter 1004: Desperate Measures!

The Master of Scams!

“Remember, we must capture someone alive!”

“If she dies, she’ll be worth nothing.

Make sure to hide her well once we get her, understood?”

In an international satellite phone call, Yang Tao instructed his subordinates with utmost severity.

This operation held significant meaning.

For many years since its founding, the Kaint Clubhouse had been cautious and vigilant, never once encountering trouble.

The founder of the clubhouse, Kaint, had initially been a red wine consultant for high-end parties.

But he discovered that the vast majority of men couldn’t escape the lure of three things:

Money, power, and beautiful women.

And when a person has achieved success, gained wealth and power, what else is there to conquer?

Of course, it’s all kinds of beautiful women.

Different skin tones, races, figures, and levels of education…

Especially highly educated, attractive women of high caliber were most favored by the powerful and prominent.

Thus,

Kaint started as a part-timer, finding suitable targets for those wealthy and powerful partygoers,

Then either seducing them with money or directly abducting them, anyway, the women were handed over to the clients to their satisfaction.

This ‘custom-made’ style seemed small in scale, but the profits were extremely high.

Over thirty years, Kaint had grown from a small gang causing minor disturbances to an extremely secretive clubhouse.

The clubhouse business had long since expanded beyond just providing clients with the pleasure of the hunt to include private investment, international money laundering, intelligence trading, and other highly lucrative dealings, having thousands of members worldwide.

But the higher the profit, the greater the risk.

The safe operation of the clubhouse over the years primarily relied on the ‘three no-principle’:

Not without the introduction of a senior member, followed by strict inspection, unfamiliar people couldn’t become members.

Not without a member’s paid order and inspection for feasibility, high-risk targets absolutely couldn’t be abducted.

Not without rigorous internal training, high-quality capabilities, only those qualified after testing were appointed for action.

Adhering to this iron-clad principle, the clubhouse had thrived for many years without a single misstep.

However…

When you often walk by the river, how can you not wet your shoes?

Who could have expected…

Class A client, Daniel Su Leige, had his eyes set on the classic beauty, Lin Yuan.

Although Lin Yuan was a friend of Wu Jie, the client offered a very high price, and since Lin Yuan was teaching in a poor and remote mountain area…

Thinking the risk was not great, the clubhouse took the business.

The result was quite ‘touching’.

Due to strict regional control, they couldn’t transport Lin Yuan out of the country, so they had to send her to Pawei City, intending to hand her over to the client at the ‘old house’ that had been operated for many years.

No one knows at which point things went wrong; perhaps a traitor appeared within the clubhouse, or maybe the joint task force of Liuli Continent, after years of effort and numerous case investigations, had indeed accumulated enough experience and achieved a breakthrough.

In any case, this deal completely smashed the clubhouse’s reputation.

Not only were a group of elite members, who had operated for years without failure, caught in one fell swoop, the old house was raided, a valuable stronghold was lost, and it also implicated the client, Daniel Su Leige, leading to his imprisonment.

Su Leige really had it rough.

He’d paid the deposit, hadn’t even seen Lin Yuan, and then got arrested.

Despite being a billionaire, a renowned businessman, and even a diplomat.

But what of it?

The person he offended was the famed ‘King of Tricksters,’ Wu Jie.

Even if Lin Yuan was safe and sound, without a single hair harmed, could the matter just end there?

Wu Jie would surely want to dig out the mastermind and other culprits behind the scenes.

Thus,

Su Leige’s tragedy unfolded.

What sort of tycoon?

Could he be as rich as a country like Wu Jie?

What renowned businessman?

Could he be as well-known around the world as Wu Jie?

What kind of diplomat?

Protests and defenses were utterly ineffective!

Once in the hands of Wu Jie,

No evidence?

Just a bit of a trick, and they could convict Su Leige, make him serve a long sentence, or even send him directly to the gallows.

After all, Wu Jie’s title of ‘King of Tricksters’ wasn’t for nothing.

The reason for the recent quiet was obvious: they were pressuring and tempting Su Leige to confess voluntarily and reveal the organization and accomplices behind the scenes.

To rescue Su Leige, it wasn’t possible to cause too much of an international stir.

The current situation was clear.

The Security Bureau had arrested Su Leige along with a batch of Yang Tao’s subordinates.

Since the case hadn’t stirred public upheaval, it was evident that they were privately detained for interrogation, hoping to make a breakthrough from them.

Conventional methods, such as public opinion pressure and benefit exchange, would certainly not sway Wu Jie or the Security Bureau.

For years, numerous cases of women disappearing without trace had a tremendously negative impact.

Having finally caught a group of suspects, how could the joint task force let them go easily?

So…

At this point, Yang Tao naturally had no choice but to give up that batch of subordinates.

But Class A client Su Leige, they had to rescue him!

Yet with the situation so challenging, how to rescue?

The ancients said that even heroes find it hard to overcome the allure of a beautiful woman.

Who started Wu Jie’s underdog counterattack?

And who changed Wu Jie’s destiny?

The grand wedding widely blessed and known to all was a testament to their love.

Tanglong Industrial Group’s delisting and privatization, splitting the shares evenly, turning into a ‘husband and wife shop’, was the ironclad proof of their intimate relationship.

So…

Tang Xiao was undoubtedly one of the two women in Wu Jie’s life he treasured most and couldn’t afford to lose.

The other woman, of course, was Wu Jie’s mother, Liao Lan.

But unfortunately, to kidnap and coerce Wu Jie into handing over Su Leige, Liao Lan wasn’t an option.

Old Mr.

Tang had been convalescing at Wu Jie’s hometown all this while, where armed guards were always present in the yard, and there was an extremely loyal and ferocious Dugao Dog, sending anyone there was sending someone to their death, gaining nothing but losing everything.

In comparison, Tang Xiao was much easier to get a hold of.

After all, even though Tang Xiao had once served in the special forces and was a highly esteemed “Special Forces Female Soldier King”…

But she was discharged due to injury, carrying a concealed wound, and her ability to defend herself wasn’t even as good as an average person’s.

…

Kidnapping Tang Xiao to exchange for Su Leige.

It was a last resort.

And looking at the current situation, Yang Tao felt it wasn’t too bad.

Wu Jie was busy with work and it was unknown where he was hiding, while Tang Xiao had no sense of danger and was still habitually solitary.

What was even more delightful was…

Tang Xiao seemed to be pregnant.

Probably to avoid the ‘false pregnancy’ that would lead her family and friends to be joyously disappointed, she especially went to a far-off place to buy a pregnancy test in secret.

But Yang Tao truly hoped that Tang Xiao was indeed pregnant.

Because once pregnant, it would mean not only would her fighting ability decline, her will to resist would weaken, and when kidnapped, for the sake of the child in her belly, she would be more than enough to silently endure and eat properly.

What was more important was that if Wu Jie knew she was carrying his flesh and blood in her womb…

Tsk-tsk!

Wouldn’t that add a superb chip for threatening and intimidating Wu Jie?

On one side was Daniel Su Leige, whose crimes were questionable!

On the other side was the incomparably beautiful, pregnant with child beloved wife Tang Xiao!

Yang Tao believed there was no way Wu Jie wouldn’t agree to the exchange.

So…

Whether Su Leige could be saved from his misery depended on the success of kidnapping Tang Xiao.

This operation must succeed and could not fail!

Because failure would undoubtedly enrage Wu Jie like never before, then it would truly be a fight to the death.

This was of great significance!

Yang Tao couldn’t help but give a few extra warnings.

If it were not for the circumstances precluding it, she’d even wish she could fly back from Jiazhou Continent’s Sangkrei to personally deploy and command the operation within the country.

But this was just a fleeting thought, and of course, Yang Tao wouldn’t return home.

The reason for Lin Yuan’s case failure hadn’t been discovered.

The club was undergoing a strict internal screening to see if there was a mole or traitor who had leaked the information of the deal.

But Yang Tao felt there was a possibility that the old house on the outskirts of Pawei City had inadvertently exposed the target.

Previous news had shown that the aunties in Liuli City were highly aware of crime prevention.

Smelling a peculiar odor in the air, they reported it and discovered a drug den.

Seeing young men frequently entering a certain apartment and the owner ordering a large amount of takeout every day, they reported it and uncovered a brothel.

So, a place like the ‘old house’, usually devoid of people, suddenly had numerous cars and people arriving and being extra careful and vigilant…

The more they tried to be cautious, the more likely it was to arouse the neighbors’ suspicions.

Regardless of the reason, in any case, the Lin Yuan incident had caused severe losses for the club.

Not only manpower was lost, but clients were implicated too.

If they didn’t find a way to rescue Daniel Su Leige, the reputation the club had built over the years could be entirely wiped clean, inevitably leading to distrust among other members.

After all, the club had always handled matters successfully for money and had never had any mishaps.

It was one thing if nothing happened, but once something did and even implicated the clients, would their hearts not be in turmoil?

Could they still rely on the club to handle affairs in the future?

To calm this crisis and earn the members’ approval, Daniel Su Leige must be saved.

With immense pressure on her shoulders, it was only natural that Yang Tao, during the international satellite call, reiterated her warnings a few times.

Meanwhile.

Yang Tao’s two subordinates hurriedly left the pharmacy and immediately headed for Tianyuan Haoting.

This mission was crucial; success was the only option, failure was not permissible.

Even though they knew they were taking a huge risk, just the deposit had already netted each person two million yuan, not to mention the remaining payment and rewards upon completion of the task.

People die for wealth, just as birds die for food.

With this job done, they could all retire comfortably.

Right now, it seemed Tang Xiao might be pregnant, which would make the capture more convenient.

Wouldn’t a pregnant woman be particularly more cautious around other expectant mothers?

So the experienced kidnappers quickly drafted an action plan.

Before long.

Their accomplices, who switched shifts to stakeout near Tianyuan Haoting every day, used code in the action group to post the latest news.

“The goods drove into the garage”: a very simple and direct sentence that’s easy to understand at face value, but unless one was familiar with the mission, who could grasp the specifics?

Could they know that this sentence meant Tang Xiao drove her Mercedes-Benz G550 SUV into the underground garage?

Upon seeing this message, two accomplices who had already entered the residential area found a blind spot in the surveillance, changed their work clothes, then disguised themselves and entered the underground garage.

These days, the thriving internet shopping and food delivery made seeing couriers and delivery people extremely common in the city streets and alleys.

To deliver packages and food, they naturally needed to access residential areas.

Tianyuan Haoting might be upscale, but the wealthier the residents, the higher the demand for online shopping, resulting in numerous couriers and delivery people coming and going every day.

Typically, security guards at the post would only require a registration of an ID card and the homeowner’s apartment number, without spare time to meticulously inspect packages and meal boxes, let alone verify identities.

If they delayed the delivery time and were scolded or even complained about by the homeowners, could the security guards bear it?

Hence, two kidnappers disguised as a delivery man and courier easily blended into the residential area.

However, before entering the underground garage, the kidnappers changed their outfits.

If the ones delivering parcels suddenly appeared in the garage, wouldn’t the security guards viewing surveillance footage become suspicious?

Who would sign for a delivery in the car park?

After changing clothes, the two, a man and a woman.

The man was dressed in a suit, wearing large sunglasses and a bag clipped to his waist, giving off the impression of wealth.

And the woman next to him was an old hand at trafficking women and children but deliberately disguised as a pregnant woman.

After arriving at the garage, they appeared to be homeowners going downstairs to pick up their car to go out, and no one could tell anything was amiss.

The man went ahead to wait in hiding, while the ‘pregnant woman’ slowly walked.

As Tang Xiao’s car approached, the pregnant woman suddenly screamed in agony and slumped to the ground.

Clutching her swollen belly, her expression was one of pain.

This skillful fall and the natural expression of pain…

undoubtedly the work of a bump-and-grinder expert.

When Tang Xiao saw the pregnant woman fall, she didn’t hesitate for a second and immediately stopped the car.

“What’s wrong with you?

Do you need to go…”

Before she could even say “hospital,” the ‘pregnant woman’ lifted her cuff toward Tang Xiao’s face, spraying out a puff of white smoke…
