"I understand, what about Uncle Seventh?"
"I'm going to Hezhou. It will take at least four days."
I said coldly, "You gave me five days, didn't you mean to make me overtime?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. That video was taken for Uncle Seventh."
Boss Dai replied, "I estimate that he will come with the bottle in two days. You just need to take the bottle from him and deliver it to me."
"Isn't this a very low requirement?"
He even added a mocking laugh.
"Okay, are you sure you will fulfill your promise and will not have anything to do with me in the future?"
I confirmed again, "Instead of playing word games like Dunxi."
"Deng Xi is just a loser. You are different. You are an expert in appraisal."
Boss Dai smiled and explained, "I have always respected talents. For talents like you, of course I will keep my promises."
Anyway, I don’t believe it.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, I'll give you the bottle."
"Yes, wouldn't it be better if you figured it out earlier?"
"It's better to suffer less."
With that said, Boss Dai hung up the phone.
Sitting in the ambulance, I took a few deep breaths.
Boss Dai called just to make me unable to calm down.
But maybe he doesn't know my personality very well. The more critical it is, the calmer I become.
After arriving at the hospital in Huzhou City, Deng Xi went through a series of first aid and examinations and found that his life was no longer in danger. He was now lying in the ward, still unconscious.
I didn't save Deng Xi purely out of thoughts of saving people or sympathy.
Of course humanity is part of it.
However, I wanted to get the full story from her.
She should be feeling quite miserable now that the brother she had always wanted to rescue actually followed Boss Dai to play around with her.
She would probably be shattered when she woke up.
I think she should know a lot of things after being with Boss Dai for so long.
Maybe some of them will be the key to bringing down Boss Dai.
To say the least, she is still a witness after the arrest of Boss Dai.
While waiting for Deng Xi to wake up, Li Jinming and Qian Jia also came to the hospital.
"What's going on now?"
"Why are you still here?"
Li Jinming frowned and pushed open the door.
"I should ask this question."
I stood up slowly and said, "Did they get off the boat? Did they do anything?"
Seeing my rhetorical question, Li Jinming was a little stunned.
Maybe she thought I should act more pushy.
"Ding Shi's boat has been parked on the river and won't come down for a while."
"It seems that there is a lot of supplies on his ship. It is estimated that they will not be moved in the short term."
Li Jinming nodded and explained, "What about you? Shouldn't you contact Uncle Seven to discuss it?"
"I will contact you, but not now. I have a question that I haven't thought through yet."
I said, taking two stools and asking them to sit down too.
I spent some extra money, so Deng Xi's ward is a single room.
"Boss Dai, or you say Ding Shi, what confidence does he have in escaping?"
I slowly said, "If we can't escape, I'll give them the bottle and it will eventually come back to us."
"this……"
Qian Jia was stunned when he heard my questions. He might not have thought about these questions at all.
"I've thought about it too, but it's impossible for me."
"I will never let him get away."
Li Jinming patted his thigh as he spoke, "There are only hostages now. As long as there are no hostages, we will mobilize in all directions!"
"Chen Cheng, Han Shijin, and Su Yu who was arrested, there are three people in total."
I said, "Chen Cheng and Han Shijin, I'm not worried, I'm more worried about Amelia Su."
Then I explained the reason to them.
Chen Cheng and Han Shijin were both visible on the boat, only Su Yu's position was uncertain.
By then, even if they were to make a surprise attack, Amelia Su would most likely be ripped off.
"I will find a solution for Amelia Su's position."
Li Jinming sighed slightly as he spoke, "But I don't agree with you saying that Ding Shi has a back-up plan."
"The Coast Guard, including all of us in the Public Security Bureau, will never let such a ruthless bandit escape."
She shook her head, her eyes very appraising.
Although I had no way to convince her, Boss Dai is a very cautious person, and he definitely has a backup plan for doing this.
I have to find out within these five days.
Plum bottle, you can give it to him, but he and his entire team must "stay"!
"You should take a rest first. You are tired after such a day."
Qian Jia stood up and patted me on the shoulder, "Captain Li and I are going to have something to eat first."
In order to keep an eye on the situation with Boss Dai and me, several of them, including other people from the Public Security Bureau, did not eat.
"You guys go ahead, I'll take a rest in the hospital."
I said as I walked them out the door.
Back in the room, I leaned on the sofa and waited for Deng Xi to wake up.
According to the doctor, her body is basically fine and she will wake up as soon as tomorrow.
While waiting for Deng Xi to wake up, I called Zhou Jianguo.
"Master Zhou, has something happened?"
I didn't speak directly.
"Yes, it was my negligence."
Zhou Jianguo sighed as he spoke, "Miss Su was kidnapped."
"I know, they showed me the video."
When I said this, Zhou Jianguo immediately became excited, "What is the specific situation?"
"Does the other party want Uncle Qi to bring out the plum bottle?"
I said, "My friend and Chen Cheng were detained by them, and they asked me to get the bottle."
After roughly speaking, I told Zhou Jianguo some of the things that had happened before.
"I really didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Miss Su would be kidnapped..."
After describing the situation, Zhou Jianguo sighed.
"It must have been done by the mole, right?"
I thought about it and said, since Zhang Zijian can be persuaded by Jiang Chenyang, there will naturally be people lurking.
"But what has Su Yu done to let others know that the bottle is with Uncle Seventh?"
This is something I don't understand too.
I have never mentioned the bottle being with Uncle Qi, and naturally Chen Cheng will not reveal it either.
Without this premise, they couldn't know these things by relying on fortune telling, right?
"Probably the few days after Miss met you."
"She felt very angry that you pretended not to know her on purpose, and then she found many friends to chat or vent her anger."
"There is indeed a mole, I guess he let it slip..."
Zhou Jianguo said, "The inner ghost has escaped. We found it too late."
"Uncle Seven, don't show up. Master Zhou, come with the bottle and let's do the math."
I spoke thoughtfully.
"Uncle Seven has already left. According to the time... he left last night. It is estimated that he will arrive today."
When Zhou Jianguo said this, I looked at my phone and saw that it was already past midnight. In theory, it was already the next day.
