Chapter 194: Speed and Passion (Part 1)

To everyone, Dandan was very important. Zhao Qingfeng did not want to lose Dandan, and Auntie Wang could not be without Dandan. But he was lost. A chubby six or seven-year-old boy, especially prone to runny noses, Zhao Qingfeng had even tricked him out of his candy before.

Auntie Wang was like a frog on a hot pan at this moment. The surrounding neighbors offered their advice. Some suggested to keep looking. Perhaps it was a mistake. Others proposed to call the police. To let the police help.

Auntie Wang was already distraught, sitting on the ground in confusion, looking at everyone, tears never stopping.

Coincidentally. There was a car in front of Zhao Qingfeng trying to leave the gate but couldn’t, so the driver got out and asked everyone to quickly disperse.

Auntie Wang suddenly woke up, grabbing the driver’s arm, “Brother Liu, Brother Liu! My son is lost, please help me chase him!”

The man known as Brother Liu was stunned. After understanding the situation, he pondered for a moment and felt that this was absolutely not possible. Regardless of the truth, what if the kidnapper had a knife? Those were utterly heartless people. What if he got stabbed or killed, who would he reason with?

“Ouch! My stomach hurts! I need to go home and use the toilet!” Brother Liu decided not to leave. He got back into the car, stepped on the gas, and turned around to run.

Shen Lingyao, watching from behind, no longer felt like playing, “Brother Qingfeng, quick, go back upstairs and call the police!”

That won’t do. By the time one set of procedures was completed, it would be too late.

Just then, Shen Kuo also came downstairs to check. Zhao Qingfeng quickly urged Shen Lingyao to get out of the car, “Yaoyao, go home first. Uncle Shen, let’s chase!”

Shen Lingyao was trembling with fear, “Brother Qingfeng, it’s dangerous!”

He was so thin. Dry and skinny. Not to mention whether they could catch up. Even if they did, could they really stand a chance in a fight against the kidnappers?

Shen Kuo was a veteran. His sense of justice was overwhelming. He agreed with Zhao Qingfeng’s decision, pulled Shen Lingyao out of the car, and immediately pulled Aunt Wang and the neighbor who had seen the kidnapper into the car.

According to the neighbor. The kidnapper fled towards the direction of the city center, so they should chase in that direction.

But Zhao Qingfeng stepped on the gas and headed straight for the outskirts, alarming the neighbor, “Wrong, wrong! You should be driving towards the trade city!”

Actually, it was not a mistake. In the very short time just now, Zhao Qingfeng had already made an analysis and judgement. There are three exits from Shuangyang County. One leads to the provincial city, one to the countryside, and one to a neighboring county. The kidnapper would have chosen an escape route before abducting someone, considering all aspects.

Thinking from their perspective, heading towards the provincial city, with its wide roads and heavy traffic, there’s only one main road, making it easy to be noticed and trapped once a citywide manhunt is broadcasted.

The road to the countryside is even less likely, ending in barren lands, akin to throwing oneself into the net.

Only the road leading to another county fits the criteria. Because the neighboring county has three branches that can lead to various places, once they escape there, finding them would be as hard as climbing to heaven.

Shen Kuo was also questioning. Zhao Qingfeng had no time to explain. He trusted his judgment.

Sure enough. Half an hour later. Zhao Qingfeng actually caught up with the kidnapper’s red tricycle.

“It’s right ahead!” Zhao Qingfeng was overjoyed, “Uncle Shen, get ready with the stick, I’ll block him!”

Shen Kuo was ready to strike, holding the stick, prepared at any moment. Zhao Qingfeng continued to press the gas, almost catching up to the red tricycle.

But at that moment. The car suddenly made a strange roaring sound, followed by a clattering noise, extremely grating.

“What happened?”
