Chapter 648: The Richest Man in Whale Harbor
Meanwhile, in Whale Harbor.
A black car turned down from the elevated road and headed straight for the mountain road. When it reached the top of the mountain, the car stopped obediently in front of Shen Garden. After the door opened, the people inside almost jumped out of the car.
"Hurry up and inform! I have something important to discuss with Mr. Shen!!!"
As soon as the black car drove into the foot of the mountain, it had already entered the Shen family's surveillance range. Someone had been waiting outside the yard for a long time. After confirming the identity of the visitor, Zheng Song immediately took the person to Qinyuan.
Ten minutes later, Zheng Song strode out of Qinyuan.
Half an hour later, Shen Qian, Shen Yuan and Shen Rang arrived at Shen Garden almost at the same time. When the three of them rushed to the flower hall, Shen Jiao had already taken her seat.
Shen Qian looked around and realized that the person sitting in the hall was the chief director of Jinggang Police Station, Cai Yan.
The police station is responsible for the public security of the entire Whale Harbor. Cai Yan appears here at this time. Did something big happen?
Shen Qian didn't show it on his face, he looked at Shen Zhuang respectfully, "Dad."
Shen Zhuang looked grave, "Everyone, sit down."
After everyone was seated, he turned to look at Cai Yan and said slowly, "Please repeat what you just said."
"Yes." Cai Yan nodded respectfully and looked sideways at everyone.
"The following is what happened. Recently, the police department has been receiving reports from families of their children being kidnapped. Initially, we treated them as simple kidnappings, but as the frequency of reports increased, we established a special task force, and discovered that it was the same group of people who were responsible."
"So far, the kidnappers have demanded a cumulative total of 300 million. Furthermore, their operations have gradually expanded from the vicinity of Country A to Whale Harbor."
Shen Qian immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. "When did it start? How many cases are there in total?"
Cai Yan, facing his immediate superior's questioning, dared not look up in shame. "This case started a month ago, and five families have already reported it. Considering the possibility that the victims were coerced by the kidnappers into not reporting it, we have deployed additional police officers to conduct a full investigation."
Five cases a month?
Everyone's face changed slightly, and they immediately understood why Cai Yan had to come to deliver the message in person. This kind of case cannot be made public because once it is made public, it will easily cause panic in the upper circles. If the news media exposes it again, the hostages will most likely be silenced.
So, just in case, Cai Yan had to go to each of them in person to remind them one by one.
Shen Qian, "Who else knows about this?"
Cai Yan, "Besides the senior police officials, there's also the local police station where the crime occurred. I learned that the kidnappers might be gathering in Jinggang Harbor, so I rushed here as soon as possible."
Shen Yuan flipped through the documents in his hand, his expression indifferent. "These victims are all wealthy businessmen with some assets. They don't have a strong sense of security, so it's easy for the kidnappers to succeed."
After saying that, he looked at Shen Zhuang with confidence and said, "Dad, I don't think you need to worry too much about this matter. The Shen family has a good reputation. Even if those criminals wanted to provoke us, I'm afraid they wouldn't have the courage to do so."
"Yes, yes, yes." Cai Yan nodded quickly in agreement, "Mr. Shen Er is right."
In fact, in Cai Yan's heart, he did not think that these kidnappers had the courage to provoke the first family of Country A, but it is better to be safe than sorry. What if the kidnappers were blind and the Shen family held a grudge against them and went to the police station, it would be a huge disaster for him.
So as soon as he analyzed the direction the kidnappers had moved, he immediately went to report the situation.
It’s always a good idea to plan ahead.
"Wait!" Shen Jiao frowned and thought for a moment, her expression serious. "You said they kidnapped five people and extorted 300 million yuan, and they haven't stopped yet?"
Cai Yan nodded, "Yes."
The more Shen Jiao thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She looked up at Shen Zhuang and said, "Dad, this isn't right. Think about it, 300 million is a lot of money. Normally, after the kidnappers succeed, they should be thinking about how to get away with it, but these kidnappers are still extorting money, which means they were after the money from the beginning."
Shen Yuan, "Isn't this nonsense? Who kidnaps people for money? Could it be that they are just trying to kill people?!"
Shen Zhuang had not expressed his opinion. He glanced at Shen Yuan indifferently after hearing the words. Shen Yuan noticed the disgust in his expression and immediately fell silent, not daring to say anything more.
Shen Jiao then added, "I have a very bold hypothesis. Perhaps the kidnappers came to Whale Harbor because they felt the hostages in the border towns weren't valuable enough, and they wanted to come to Whale Harbor for a bigger hit. If this hypothesis is true... then the most likely target for the kidnappers would be the wealthiest person in Whale Harbor."
Unfortunately, Jinshan investment was booming a year ago, and the two plots of land she bought for Jiang Huashan and Fu Suier have now more than tripled in value.
When it comes to assets, Shen Jiao from Country A claims to be second, and no one dares to claim to be first.
