For Director Zhong’s proposal, Yu Zhou didn’t have even the slightest hesitation.
If these people were still out there, he would have to live in constant fear for his meals and sleep.
If the person kidnapped hadn't been his wife, he would have even suggested to the police not to rescue her first, but to capture them all in one go.
But since it was one of the people he cared about most, Yu Zhou decided to rescue Jiang Jie without a second thought, all for her safety.
Now that there was an opportunity to capture these people, even if it meant using himself as bait, it was something he absolutely had to do.
Desperate criminals were not to be trifled with. Once they set their sights on you, he couldn't even imagine how he would live in constant anxiety afterwards.
"Alright, I'll have the police stationed at your company and your home. Once those people contact you, we will pinpoint their location and ensure all those desperate criminals are apprehended."
Director Zhong was very satisfied with Yu Zhou's reaction.
Logically speaking, wealthy individuals should be very protective of their lives. If something no longer directly concerned him, he would certainly not get involved further.
Therefore, even if the director had said so before, he hadn't held much hope that Yu Zhou would agree.
However, he hadn't expected Yu Zhou to agree so readily, even disregarding his own safety, determined to bring these criminals to justice. This approach and decision left even the director somewhat surprised.
Nevertheless, with Yu Zhou’s agreement this time, things became much easier. Ensuring Yu Zhou's safety while capturing all those desperate criminals was the best outcome.
Solving cases, that was the police's duty.
"Xiao Jie, you will temporarily return to the police station with these officers. If the kidnappers want to confirm you're still in their custody, it will serve a purpose."
"If we don't catch them, these kidnappers will definitely seek revenge. We were fortunate this time, but next time, that might not be the case."
Yu Zhou turned back and instructed his wife.
He certainly knew the importance of this matter, not just for settling the score, but more importantly, for his own future safety.
These were desperate criminals who knew his identity and even understood the daily routines of his family members.
Perhaps this time, they only wanted money. But if they knew he had reported them to the police and that their hideout had been raided, would they seek revenge next time, without asking for money?
Whether they would truly kill in that scenario was something even Yu Zhou couldn't guarantee. Therefore, only by apprehending them all could Yu Zhou finally feel at ease.
"Okay! I'll listen to you!"
Although Jiang Jie was still somewhat panicked and found the situation terrifying, she knew the importance of the matter now that Yu Zhou had instructed her.
No matter what, this situation was not over. Even if she wanted to relax, it was impossible. She could only follow instructions and act step by step.
Moreover, she was going to the police station. In this day and age, what could be safer than a police station? Although Jiang Jie still wished to be with Yu Zhou, and Yu Zhou was the one she least wanted to see in danger.
"Boss Yu, have you gathered the money? I don't have three days anymore. You need to bring one million in cash by tomorrow!"
As expected, Yu Zhou received the kidnappers' call in the evening.
These kidnappers, of course, had no idea about Jiang Jie's current situation.
They had been so cautious in their actions that even they didn't know the location of their other group. Naturally, they wouldn't know that Jiang Jie had already been rescued.
In their eyes, even if they themselves didn't know, it would be strange for Yu Zhou to find his wife.
As for asking Yu Zhou to pay the money in advance, it was merely part of their plan to create a greater sense of urgency for Yu Zhou.
"No matter what, you must guarantee my wife's safety, or I will never compromise!"
"I will have the money ready tomorrow. Now, can you tell me where to deliver it?"
Yu Zhou maintained a tone of urgency. While he wasn't an actor, his anxious tone was skillfully portrayed.
This made the other party burst into laughter.
They felt a sense of pleasure in having this successful businessman under their thumb, unable to resist at all.
That kind of feeling… if they dared to show their faces, they would have wanted to see firsthand how anxious Yu Zhou was.
But unfortunately, they were extremely cautious!
Even though they were close to getting the money, they still didn't reveal any information.
They only said over the phone, "We will call your pager tomorrow. Then you will know the address."
It was clear that even now, they were extremely cautious. In their eyes, this was a matter of life and death, so how could they not be careful?
"Alright, I'll trust you one more time. If you continue to be so secretive or go back on your word, you will surely understand my methods."
Yu Zhou said through gritted teeth.
And then, the next day, as expected, after he received a call, they provided an address.
It was a small road in the suburbs, almost deserted.
However, even so, Yu Zhou had no reason to back down.
Yu Zhou, with the cash, drove the little Feihu from the factory and went to the suburbs. Following the instructions step by step, he finally placed the cash in the designated location.
These people were very cautious, and also very arrogant.
The moment Yu Zhou left and even before he could disguise himself, a man wearing a cloth mask came to collect the one million in cash.
It was all due to greed. Yu Zhou knew very well that this kidnapping, if not foolproof, was at least close to it.
To find a loophole in these kidnappers' plan, they could only focus on the cash.
They demanded so much money and always acted with money as their sole motivation.
This indicated they genuinely wanted to take the money with them. In such a situation, their eagerness would inevitably be revealed.
As soon as he put down the snake-skin bag, wouldn't they eagerly come to collect the money?
"Halt, don't move! I'm the police, hands behind your head!"
Instantly, the police swarmed forward. At this moment, a kidnapper had finally taken the bait.
