Secretary Liu immediately typed on his laptop, and soon various monitoring devices appeared on the computer screen.
"Using the Sky Eye system, I can filter out suspicious vehicles!"
Soon, after system screening.
Out of fifty-three vehicles, only one white van finally appeared in the surveillance footage.
This white van made multiple turns in the recordings and finally drove towards the suburbs, making it the most suspicious vehicle.
"That's it!"
Ye Cangtian frowned tightly and immediately asked, "Is there no more surveillance behind it?"
Secretary Liu shook his head, "There are fewer monitoring devices in the suburbs, and this vehicle deliberately avoided surveillance, so there is no other surveillance that has captured its trace for the time being."
"Do you have a map of that suburban area?"
"Yes!"
Secretary Liu quickly opened the satellite map.
Ye Cangtian's eyes were fixed on the map. If it was indeed that white van that kidnapped Tang Xinwan, then the most likely hiding places for the white van were not many.
According to the direction of the city gate where the white van left, there were three relatively suitable places to hide people in the suburbs.
One was a dense forest, another was a farmhouse courtyard, and the last was a废弃 factory not far from the farmhouse courtyard.
Ye Cangtian first locked onto the废弃 factory.
It was simple. The forest was dense, making it easy to hide people, but also easy to get lost.
Besides, the forest had poor visibility, so while it was suitable for hiding people, it was also more suitable for rescue. Therefore, as long as the other party wasn't brain-dead, they shouldn't go there.
As for the farmhouse courtyard area, it was not large, and outsiders would be extremely conspicuous there, making them easily exposed.
Thus, only the废弃 factory remained.
After the analysis, Ye Cangtian said nothing and prepared to leave.
Just then, Old Master Xu suddenly spoke, "Driving is too slow. I have already notified them, and a helicopter will be here shortly."
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian nodded.
Time was of the essence!
He needed to rush over as quickly as possible, otherwise, he feared Tang Xinwan might be harmed if he was late!
...
The dilapidated factory building in the suburbs.
In a废弃 office, two men in black suits were looking at the tied-up woman with their fists clenched.
The two were Matsumoto Daichi and Amaki Kojiro.
The woman tied to the chair and struggling was Tang Xinwan.
At this moment, besides fear, Tang Xinwan's face was also filled with regret.
Earlier, she had received a call saying there were clues about her parents' disappearance, and she had lost her composure.
She had also forgotten Ye Cangtian's instructions!
She had rushed out of the company in a hurry.
But who knew it was a trap, and she was kidnapped as soon as she arrived!
At this moment, she truly regretted it to the core.
Now trapped in a factory building in the wilderness, she really didn't know if Ye Cangtian could arrive in time...
"Matsumoto-kun, after being in China for so many days, this is the first time I've seen such a beautiful woman!"
"Heh heh... Kojiro, let alone China, even in Higashi, or the entire Asia-Pacific region, there are probably not many women this beautiful."
"Matsumoto-kun, anyway, we have to kill that kid Ye Cangtian, why don't we enjoy ourselves first?"
"It's not time yet."
Matsumoto-kun looked at Kojiro and finally shook his head.
Although he also wanted to taste foreign flavors, he had other purposes in mind.
He understood the saying that lust is a double-edged sword and must not let women affect his mission.
Therefore, he never broke his vows before completing a mission; this was his principle!
Secondly, Ye Cangtian was a member of the Dragon Group. If he could extract some Dragon Group intelligence through coercion or temptation, that would be even better.
He had even considered subduing Ye Cangtian, but that would depend on the specific situation.
Listening to Matsumoto Daichi's words, Amaki Kojiro swallowed hard and shut his mouth.
Who told him that Matsumoto was from the Ninja Division?
In terms of strength and status, he was higher than him!
Tang Xinwan, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. She had already planned that if the other party truly had ill intentions towards her, she would bite her tongue and commit suicide.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Just then, a whistle sounded, and a member of the Ninja Division rushed into the room, panting and reporting to Matsumoto Daichi.
He was responsible for perimeter security. When he was changing shifts, his companion disappeared, and he eventually found his companion's body nearby, so he hurried to report.
"Heh heh, they found this place so quickly."
Matsumoto Daichi not only wasn't angry but showed a hint of excitement.
It was said that the Chinese Dragon Group was not weak, and now it seemed they did have some capabilities.
Saying that, he glanced at his subordinate and said, "Don't panic. The reason I didn't notify Ye Cangtian to come alone was to compete with the Chinese Dragon Group. Do you think our Higashi Ninja Division is weaker than the Dragon Group!"
Facing the sneak attack, Matsumoto Daichi was full of confidence. The other party's objective must be to rescue Tang Xinwan.
Therefore, rather than defeating them one by one, it was better to gather them all and have a decisive battle with the Dragon Group!
He wanted to let everyone know that the Higashi Ninja Division was invincible!
...
At the factory entrance, three figures gathered around the main workshop.
They had already searched the other workshops of the factory separately and found nothing unusual. Now, only the main workshop in front of them remained.
"Brother-in-law, won't they escape?"
Xu Shian asked.
He had previously killed a Higashi person, proving that the other party had definitely been here.
But shortly thereafter, an urgent whistle sounded, clearly indicating that the other party had discovered them.
And now, after searching most of the area, they hadn't found a single person, so he couldn't help but think this way.
"Can a monk run away, but can a temple run away?"
Shangguan Yun said disdainfully from the side.
This was the outskirts of China, how could they let Higashi people run wild?
"Let's go in and take a look first."
Ye Cangtian, without wasting time on these thoughts, took the lead and sneaked into the main workshop.
The workshop was not small, but due to its废弃 state, it appeared very empty, and one could get a general idea at a glance.
As soon as Ye Cangtian entered, he straightened up, changing from sneaking stealthily to walking openly.
From the moment the whistle sounded, they had already been discovered, so sneaking was meaningless!
In the corner on the other side of the workshop.
More than twenty sturdy men stood there, holding katanas and blocking the door of an office.
Needless to say, that should be where Tang Xinwan was being held!
"Higashi?"
Ye Cangtian's eyebrows twitched.
Although he was a little surprised, it was not entirely unexpected. After all, Old Master Xu had reminded him earlier that the Higashi Ninja Division had been restless recently.
He didn't expect these guys to be the ones who kidnapped Tang Xinwan!
"Oh, you're all here? That's good, it saves me the trouble of catching you one by one."
Seeing that more than twenty people were all here, Xu Shian, who came in later, chuckled and rolled up his sleeves, ready to charge.
But just then, the door opposite quietly opened, and two figures walked out.
Their gazes were directly locked onto Ye Cangtian, and they sized him up.
"Mr. Ye, it is indeed you. Let me introduce myself, I am Matsumoto Daichi, a Jonin of the Higashi Ninja Division."
"And this person beside me is Amaki Kojiro from the Higashi Kawada family."
Matsumoto Daichi said with a smile.
Ye Cangtian glanced at the two of them, and indeed, the Kawada family was also involved.
He did not hide the killing intent in his eyes at all, and snorted, "So it was you who kidnapped Xinwan, then you can all go to hell!"
