Hong Kong News: Police Talker

Chapter 852: Real Estate Developer Huo Zhaotang is Kidnapped

However, after calming down, MacLehose still thought of Li Chaoren's influence. If he was dealt with, the economy of Hong Kong Island would definitely be affected.

Thinking of this, a conflicted look appeared on MacLehose's face. Finally, he said, "Is Li Chaoren involved in this?"

The secretary understood very well and immediately said politely, "There is currently no evidence that Li Chaoren was involved. He was arrested simply because he owned the Kwai Chung Pier and now a radiation source was found inside, so they arrested him."

Hearing his secretary's words, MacLehose breathed a sigh of relief and then slowly said, "Since there's no evidence, there's no way to prove he was involved. After all, the presumption of innocence is the end of the story. You go and keep an eye on it and give the police some time. If they can't find any evidence, then let him go."

The reason why he didn't release him now was that Murray MacLehose wanted to control Li Chaoren and let him know who was in charge of Hong Kong Island.

"Yes, I understand!" The secretary retreated respectfully.

While Watson was still on the road, Chen Yongren called.

"Hua Sir, I asked, and the unloader said there's something fishy going on in KY-12 warehouse. The company asked not to open it, and they don't allow us to go inside to investigate. It's very likely that there's cesium-137 inside."

"Okay, I see."

A moment later, Watson arrived at the scene, found Liu Zhaoqiang, and quickly told him the warehouse number. He then said, "This warehouse is likely to contain cesium 137. Tell your brothers to be careful."

Liu Zhaoqiang nodded firmly, took out the walkie-talkie and began to give orders.

Watson could do nothing but stand in the temporary base outside the fire scene and watch the flames raging in the dock.

At the same time, many gunmen and killers who came to Hong Kong Island began to feel uneasy when they saw the fire in the direction of Kwai Chung Pier.

In a rental house in the central district, several men were in the room, looking at the fire in the distance with emotion on their faces.

"Brother Qiang, Hong Kong Island is so different from where we are. This fire is so bright that it can burn the whole sky red. Many police officers are rushing in that direction."

Brother Qiang looked at the fire in the distance, took a deep drag on his cigarette, then pulled it out and threw it to the ground, saying harshly, "This is an opportunity, an opportunity for us to make a fortune."

"Now the entire Hong Kong Island's attention is drawn to this fire. Our chance to act has come. These big bosses in Hong Kong are all very wealthy. If we can kidnap one of them, we won't have to worry about the rest of our lives!"

"What do you say? Do it or not?"

Hearing this, several younger brothers all said, "Brother Qiang, if you say do it, then we will definitely do it!"

Brother Qiang said with a fierce look in his eyes, "Alright, let's go now. We've already checked the location. Let's go directly to the big boss's house, kidnap him, and then demand a ransom. You have to pay tonight, or we'll kill him."

After a while, they arrived outside a villa. The person living there was a real estate company owner named Chen Bangming. Although his real estate company was not as big as Li Chaoren's, it was not small in Hong Kong Island and was a big company.

Several kidnappers climbed over the wall into the villa and after a search, they found Chen Bangming's bedroom.

There were only a few servants in the villa, and the security guards did not stay at home. Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Bangming's wife told them to go home and sleep and come back tomorrow.

This also resulted in there being no one in the entire villa who could resist the kidnappers.

Half an hour later, a car drove out of the villa.

Three minutes later, a call to the police was made to the Central Police Station.

In an instant, the entire police station became busy. The head of the serious crime team, Dong Piao, was not on duty today. The person on duty was Deputy Commander Situ Jie.

Most importantly, just a few minutes after the police were called, the Secretary for Security, Parker, personally called the Central Police Station and found Situ Jie, the on-duty person in charge of the Serious Crime Unit.

No one knew what was said in between, but a few minutes later, Situ Jie immediately summoned the two strongest teams of the Central District Police Station's Serious Crime Squad.

They are Zhang Chongbang Team and Qiu Gangao Team. They are the two most reliable and capable teams in the Central District Police Station.

Chen Jiaju was not very reliable and was abandoned by Situ Jie at the first time. Wen Fang's team was not as capable as Zhang Chongbang and his team.

In the meeting room of the serious crime unit, Situ Jie stood in front of a whiteboard, pointed at the photo on it and said, "At 3:10 this morning, wealthy businessman Huo Zhaotang was kidnapped in his villa."

"The kidnappers demanded that Huo Zhaotang's wife pay a ransom of 1 billion before dawn today, and not call the police."

"Mrs. Huo personally called the Director of Security. Just over ten minutes ago, Director Parker personally called our Central District Police Station."

"Now, let me tell you the requirements of this operation. This operation will be carried out in secret so as not to affect the rescue and Mr. Huo's safety. Also, time is running out. It's already 3:30, and there are only a few hours left until dawn."

"The Security Bureau attaches great importance to Mr. Huo and repeatedly urged us to rescue him."

Everyone immediately said, "Yes, Sir."

After he finished speaking, the meeting room dispersed. Just as everyone was about to take action, Situ Jie suddenly shouted, "Abang, Aao!"

Just like that, everyone else left the meeting room, leaving only Situ Jie, Zhang Chongbang and Qiu Gangao.

"No matter what, we must find a way to rescue Mr. Huo."

"Yes, sir!" The two nodded slightly in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, the two most elite teams of the Central District Serious Crime Squad set off.

The two teams came to Mr. Huo's villa at the same time and began to look for clues.

And asked everyone in the villa.

Finally, according to the servant's description, he said that he saw two people sneaking around the villa a few days ago and didn't know what they were doing.

Zhang Chongbang immediately showed the other party the photos of various criminal suspects collected by the Central District Police Station. These people all had criminal records.

Finally, two people were identified, namely Kele and Wang Kun, both of whom were involved in pornography, gambling and drugs.

Qiu Gangao immediately said, "Hey, Lord, let me take care of Coke, and you take care of Wang Kun. How about that?"

"Okay, no problem!" Zhang Chongbang agreed immediately.

Before they parted, Zhang Chongbang even shouted, "Have a safe journey!"

In this way, the two teams searched for the two suspects separately.

They were all veteran police officers who had worked in the serious crime squad for many years and had their own intelligence networks. After making a few phone calls, they found out where Kele and Wang Kun liked to hang out, and then the two teams headed straight there.
