"When did this happen?"
Upon hearing that Jiang Wenhao had been captured, Wan Yunting's heart grew anxious. He seemed to have a guess as to why Jiang Wenhao was suddenly apprehended.
"Just a moment ago, a group of people attacked us in the company's underground parking lot and took Mr. Jiang. We've already called the police."
At this moment, in the vast underground garage of a hundred-story financial tower on Wall Street in New York, USA, Lucy, with blood on her forehead and her hair dishevelled, held her phone next to a car riddled with bullet holes, calling Wan Yunting. "The police are already investigating..."
The American police arrived at the scene to investigate. Simultaneously, Jiang Wenhao's personal bodyguard, Jason, and five other bodyguards were killed in the attack.
It was evident what kind of power the people who attacked and abducted Jiang Wenhao possessed in this country.
"Lucy, regarding Mr. Jiang's capture, do not disclose this to the public. Stabilize the company first. Arrange a plane for me now. I'm heading to the US and will contact you when I arrive!" Wan Yunting said solemnly, instructing Lucy. The situation was urgent, leaving him with little time to consider.
After all, Jiang Wenhao, as the Vice Chairman of Chaoting Group, controlled the entire financial and commercial empire. If news of his abduction spread, the entire group would suffer an unimaginable impact.
Therefore, Wan Yunting told Lucy to prevent the information from leaking. After hanging up, he immediately called Pang Yuan. "Lao Pang, are you at the police station?"
"Just arrived. What's up?" Pang Yuan asked, eating breakfast in his office.
"Jiang Wenhao is in the US. He was just attacked and captured by a group!" Wan Yunting said immediately.
"What!"
Pang Yuan stood up abruptly, his eyes wide. "What's the situation there now?"
"I don't know."
Wan Yunting shook his head, his expression grave. "I've already asked his secretary to arrange a plane for me. I need to go to the US immediately!"
"In that case, come to the police station first. We'll discuss it carefully before deciding how to rescue Jiang Wenhao in the US," Pang Yuan said with a serious expression.
"Alright, I'm coming over now."
Wan Yunting nodded and hung up. Gu Luotang, who had been standing beside him, quickly asked, "Yun Ting ge, what happened?"
Wan Yunting turned to her and said, "Luotang, a brother of mine was captured in the US. I need to go there immediately. So, later, go to the Southern Traditional Chinese Medicine department and tell Elder Jiang that I'll be away for a few days."
"Okay, okay. Is it dangerous?" Gu Luotang asked, feeling a bit nervous.
Wan Yunting smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm going to cooperate with the local police to rescue him. There won't be any danger, so you don't need to worry."
"Mm..."
Gu Luotang nodded. Wan Yunting said nothing more. He grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom to shower. After coming out, he took out his passport and documents from a drawer and left immediately, without even packing luggage. He went downstairs to inform Lu Xiaodie. She was astonished and got up, saying, "Little brother, I'll go with you."
"No need, Sister Lu. I'll handle it. You can stay at home if you want, or go back if you prefer. It's up to you."
Wan Yunting waved his hand and, before Lu Xiaodie could speak, quickly said to Gu Luotang, "Luotang, remember to go tell Elder Jiang. I'm leaving now..."
"Alright, Yun Ting ge. Be careful. Call me when you get to the US."
Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao also came out with Lu Xiaodie to see Wan Yunting off as he rushed away in his car, causing them to worry. Seeing his hurried departure, they knew his friend in the US must be in great danger.
Wan Yunting drove directly to the police station and walked quickly into the lobby upon alighting. He happened to run into Niu Qiuling, who was coming out. Her eyes lit up when she saw him, and she stopped him. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing it was Niu Qiuling, Wan Yunting waved his hand and said urgently, "I'm here to see Bureau Chief Pang on urgent business. Don't cause trouble for me..."
"Hey, you heartless fellow! I just wanted to say hello, and you're saying I'm causing trouble. Stop right there..."
This angered Niu Qiuling. She was happy to see him and wanted to greet him, but Wan Yunting had a serious face and was giving her the cold shoulder.
"Don't be difficult. I really have important matters..."
Wan Yunting saw the girl grabbing his arm and shook it a couple of times, then strode towards Pang Yuan's office. The police officers passing by also recognized him and nodded in greeting...
"Bastard, stop right there..."
Niu Qiuling naturally followed, while Wan Yunting went up to the second floor and knocked on a door. Pang Yuan inside immediately called, "Come in..."
Wan Yunting pushed the door open and saw Pang Yuan and Ma Zhendong already there. He stood up but also saw Niu Qiuling entering and asked, "Qiuling, why are you coming in? Go back to work quickly."
Seeing Bureau Chief Pang's serious expression, Niu Qiuling knew something must have happened. She chuckled and said, "Bureau Chief Pang, I want to listen too."
Ma Zhendong ignored her and asked Wan Yunting, "What's the situation now?"
Wan Yunting sat down and sighed, "Wenhao is missing, but it's certain that the 'Qun Long' drug trafficking group captured him!"
Pang Yuan and Ma Zhendong, who had sat down, nodded. After all, Jiang Wenhao had just uncovered information about the 'Qun Long' drug trafficking group, and now he was suddenly attacked and captured. This was definitely the work of the 'Qun Long' drug trafficking group's forces!
"Jiang Wenhao was captured?"
Niu Qiuling, standing beside Wan Yunting, exclaimed in surprise.
Wan Yunting lit a cigarette and took a puff, nodding slightly. He then said to Pang Yuan and Ma Zhendong, "Now I must go to the US to rescue Wenhao!"
"Yes, that's certain."
Ma Zhendong also said, "We asked him to investigate, which led to him being implicated. So, no matter what, we must go and rescue him and ensure Wenhao's safety!"
However, Pang Yuan frowned and said to Wan Yunting, "Yunting, we cannot enter the US with our identities. But I can apply to higher authorities to mobilize the special bureau in the US to assist you in rescuing Jiang Wenhao!"
Ma Zhendong turned to Pang Yuan and asked, "You're talking about the special department specifically tasked with pursuing fugitives in the US?"
"That's right."
Pang Yuan nodded, stood up, and went out to make a phone call to his superiors with his mobile phone...
Wan Yunting was a little confused and asked, "What special department?"
Ma Zhendong explained, "It's a branch cultivated by our higher-ups, dedicated to pursuing fugitives abroad, as well as corrupt high-ranking officials who have embezzled huge sums of money and group criminals. Their identities are not police officers, but they obey orders from our country, hence they are called the special department!"
After all, we do not have an extradition treaty with the United States, and it is also difficult for police officers to enter the US. Therefore, we can only use special means to establish a special department there to track down those who committed crimes in our country and fled to the US. Once the criminals are identified, they will be jointly apprehended in collaboration with the American police.
At this moment, Pang Yuan pushed the door open and came in, saying, "Yunting, the higher-ups have agreed to let the responsible person in charge there assist you in rescuing Jiang Wenhao. I'll give you the contact information of the person in charge."
"Okay."
Wan Yunting took out his phone and recorded the phone number and address Pang Yuan provided. After recording it, he stood up and said, "Time is pressing, so I'll head to the US now."
"Alright, be careful..."
Pang Yuan and Ma Zhendong stood up and advised.
"Hey, I'll go with you," Niu Qiuling immediately said.
Wan Yunting looked back at her and said, "I'd like to bring you, but your identity won't be useful there."
"I can use another identity," Niu Qiuling said.
"No, Qiuling, if it's discovered by the authorities there, the consequences will be very serious," Pang Yuan said.
Wan Yunting smiled at her and said, "I appreciate your kind intentions. I'll treat you to a meal when I get back."
"Tsk, as if."
Niu Qiuling gave him a sideways glance. Wan Yunting directly went out, saying, "Then forget it."
"What forget it? Hey, wait for me..."
Niu Qiuling immediately chased after him, while Pang Yuan and Ma Zhendong in the office chuckled.
"Hey, be careful..."
Niu Qiuling, who had chased Wan Yunting out, deliberately hummed, "Don't die over there. I'm still waiting for you to come back and treat me to a meal."
Wan Yunting, who was opening his car door, looked back at her and nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, you know my capabilities. I'm leaving."
"Ah, be careful. Don't force your way through, you know? I'm serious."
Niu Qiuling, who had caught up, patted the car window and said seriously to Wan Yunting inside.
Wan Yunting rolled down the window and, as he slowly turned the car around, teased Niu Qiuling outside with a smile, "You're suddenly so concerned about me. Could it be you've fallen for me?"
"Get lost! Go die quickly..."
Niu Qiuling's pretty face flushed slightly. She kicked his car and let out a pampered, displeased snort, making Wan Yunting in the car laugh. He then drove out of the police station, his expression immediately turning grim as he worried about Jiang Wenhao's safety...
