Chapter 1344: Discovering Something AmissChapter 1344: Chapter 1344: Discovering Something Amiss
Listening to Jiang Xue, Guo Dagang did not pursue further questions.
"Xiao Guo, thank you!" Jiang Xue thanked Guo Dagang and then said to him, "Don’t release that little punk for now, send him directly to the police station. I’ll make a call first, and then we’ll talk."
Jiang Xue took out her phone and called Huo Cong. Jiang Xue was just suspecting whether the other party intended to tamper with the brakes, but after thinking it over, it didn’t seem likely.
After all, even if Huo Cong was distracted by the little punk, it wasn’t certain he would get out of the car. If he doesn’t get out, how could the other party tamper with the brakes?
Thus, Jiang Xue decided to make a call to remind Huo Cong.
The call connected, and seeing the caller ID, Huo Cong became tense immediately, asking, "Sister-in-law, is there something wrong?"
"Huo Cong, my security staff just caught a little punk who confessed that someone paid him to distract you."
Upon hearing this, Huo Cong immediately thought of the suspicion he’d had earlier and his face changed, saying, "Sister-in-law, I understand. There indeed was a little punk trying to distract me. I suspect they’re targeting you. However, I checked the car and didn’t find any issues."
"Did you check the whole car?"
"No, are you suspecting..."
Before Huo Cong could finish, Jiang Xue interrupted him, "Huo Cong, I suspect the other party has tampered with the car’s underside; why don’t you get out and check?"
"Alright!" Upon hearing this, Huo Cong felt it was very possible. So, he hung up the phone and got out of the car, locked the door, and crawled under the car.
Upon entering the car’s underside, he immediately noticed something unusual. His eyes quickly locked onto the remote-operated bomb mounted on the car’s chassis.
Looking at the bomb, Huo Cong felt a bit nervous; he had disarmed bombs before but that was a long time ago. What’s more, this bomb was remote-controlled — what if the opponent detonated it while he was disarming it?
Thinking this, sweat appeared on Huo Cong’s forehead. He studied the bomb for a while, then compelled himself to calm down.
Afterwards, he took out his phone and called Jiang Xue.
Upon telling Jiang Xue about the situation, Jiang Xue became very worried and said to him, "Huo Cong, if there’s any danger, leave immediately. I’ll get a professional to handle the bomb."
"Sister-in-law, I checked it over; it’s a remote-controlled bomb. If we find the person with the remote, it’ll be easy to handle."
"Okay, I understand. You leave first. I’ll take care of the following matters." Jiang Xue instructed Huo Cong, and then said to Guo Dagang, who hadn’t left yet, "Dagang, I’ll need your people to help find the one who paid the punk. He installed a remote-controlled bomb on my car, and we need to quickly find him and retrieve the remote."
"What? They actually installed a bomb?" Guo Dagang was shocked, then immediately took out his phone to call his subordinates, instructing them to look for suspicious individuals everywhere.
He also instructed them to sketch the suspect to help with the search. While Guo Dagang was coordinating these tasks, Jiang Xue wasn’t idle either. She dialed Mr. Lan’s number again.
Mr. Lan, upon hearing that a bomb had been placed on Jiang Xue’s car, was very worried. He immediately dispatched a bomb disposal expert and national security personnel, and instructed Jiang Xue to protect herself well and not to move the bomb yet.
