I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 683 The situation escalates

The feeling of weightlessness and disordered heartbeat became more and more intense.

In this suffocatingly hot tension, Shen Mianzhi felt like a butterfly nailed in amber, unable to struggle or move, and could only watch herself melt and sink little by little in those bottomless eyes until she was sacrificed.

It's that feeling again...

She gave up resisting, succumbing to the attraction of some law, and cautiously approached Zhou Yanheng, her shy eyes filled with an obsession that was enough to deceive everyone.

"Brother Heng, I will never let you down..."

Eleven o'clock at night.

The lights in the restaurant were bright.

More than a dozen kidnappers were in groups of two or three. Some were drunk, while others played drinking games and told dirty jokes.

The noise in the corner died down after a long time. Several men with shifty eyes and wretched looks tightened their belts contentedly, kicked Hu Meng's body away like garbage, and continued to drink at the table.

"Be careful, there's only one of them. What's the point of playing if you break it?"

The men at the other table were already impatient and rushed forward to rescue the person, cursing.

Hu Meng looked up with a numb expression. In her bright eyes, there were only the swaying windproof lanterns and the flashing neon shadows. She felt like someone was forcing her to do violence again. She could only close her eyes in despair, wishing she could die right now.

"boom--"

Suddenly, a gunshot was heard.

It seemed as if the gods had heard her prayers. The man on top of her was shot in the head, and the splattering blood burned her so much that she immediately regained some consciousness.

“Someone’s attacking!!”

All the kidnappers jumped up with screams of shock, and their first reaction was to look for cover.

Bie Lao San stood up, overturned the round iron table and used it to block himself, with his two younger brothers standing on either side.

"Boss, could it be that the navy from Country A has landed on the island?"

As soon as he finished speaking, gunshots rang out from all directions. The rain of bullets was so dense that it was obvious that they had no intention of leaving anyone alive.

How could this be?

Don’t they even care about the hostages?

The old man took out his pistol, looked around and pointed it in the direction of the corner, "Never mind, let's save our lives first."

Whale Harbor, Shen Garden.

Shen Rang hung up the phone and looked at Shen Zhuang who was sitting in the main seat with a serious expression.

"Dad, the people in the Dark Hall said they searched the kidnappers' den but still couldn't find Zhizhi."

Shen Zhuang's eyes were calm, unable to discern joy or anger. "What did the kidnappers say?"

Shen Rang looked sad. "They said Zhizhi jumped into the deep sea to escape."

Zhou Guochao glanced at Shen Zhuang. Although he knew it was inappropriate, he couldn't help but ask, "Then... Ah Heng?"

Shen Rang shook his head. "They said they've never seen Ah Heng."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Guochao's face lost all color.

"How could this happen? Ah Heng is clearly in their hands, why don't those criminals admit it?" Zhou Yuanzheng muttered to himself, and suddenly thought of something. He looked at Zhou Guochao in shock, "Could it be... they took Ah Heng..."

"Shut up." Zhou Guochao interrupted coldly, thinking for a moment and trying to maintain his composure. "Now that the criminals have been subdued, we can search the island. We must find them alive or dead."

After saying that, he stood up, nodded slightly at Shen Zhuang, turned around and left the flower hall.

Guan Lou never expected that things would develop in such a tortuous way, and he couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that his silly boy was lucky.

He stood up and bowed slightly to Shen Zhuang. "Mr. Shen is so righteous. The Guan family will never forget your kindness today. I will definitely repay you one day."

Shen Zhuang didn't have the energy to care about this little favor. He waved his hand and said, "Minister Guan, you are too polite. Your kid will be sent to Jinghe Hospital in half an hour. Minister Guan, please keep your mouth shut about what happened tonight."

The kidnappers held Whale Island hostage, and the government was still negotiating, but the Shen family rescued the people. If this matter were to get out, it would be detrimental to both the Shen family and the government of Country A.

Guan Lou knew how powerful it was and nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Mr. Shen."

After Guan Lou left, Shen Rang clenched his fists and walked down to the hall.

"If Country A's warships are dispatched, the media will definitely make a big fuss about it. The Shen family's secret guards are afraid of being in the open. If someone catches them, I'm afraid the Shen family will be criticized. Dad, I want to go to Whale Island myself."

Shen Zhuang pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Go."

Shen Rang stood up and just as he stepped over the threshold, he heard Shen Zhuang's voice again from behind him.

"Xiaozhi must still be alive. You must find her."

Shen Rang's expression changed slightly, and when he raised his eyes again, his rough face was full of determination.

"Yes."

The next day.

A blockbuster video suddenly swept across major mainstream platforms.

In the video, a beautiful girl was kidnapped and taken into the custody of armed kidnappers.

Soon, this incident attracted nationwide attention. In just three minutes, someone found out that the kidnapped girl was Shen Mianzhi, the daughter of the Shen family.

Public opinion was once again in an uproar, and news media also focused on this kidnapping incident.

As the popularity continues to rise, more and more people are revealing the inside story online.

In just half an hour, the Whale Island hijacking case was exposed to the public.

The university alliance is a heritage activity that has been maintained for half a century since the founding of Country A. The amount of education funds invested by Country A in these universities every year is incalculable. Such regulated activities have always been escorted by the police station of Country A. Such rigorous activities were almost wiped out by a group of foreign kidnappers. Where is the credibility of the government of Country A?

The people were once again in uproar and rose up to attack the authorities of Country A.

After public opinion fermented, the Presidential Palace where Yu Swen lived was surrounded by protesting people, angrily denouncing him for his incompetence in power. For a time, Yu Swen's public support rate dropped to an unprecedented critical value.

In order to calm public anger, the authorities of Country A held an emergency press conference.

Yu Siwen personally attended the meeting, strongly condemned the kidnappers, and also expressed the government's determination to rescue the hostages. After the meeting, Yu Siwen's support rate gradually recovered.

Just when the situation was finally under control, things took another turn for the better.

The kidnappers released a shocking video of the abuse through a technology platform, and ended the video with a humiliating caption: "Is this your top socialite from Country A? It tastes good."

As soon as the video was released, it was not only reposted by Country A, but also by current affairs news from other countries. The headlines were even more disgusting:

- [Country A's authorities are incompetent, Whale Island has fallen! A wealthy family's daughter is suspected of becoming a sex slave to the kidnappers!]

"boom--"

Shen Jiao's face was in a hurry. As soon as she entered Qin Garden, she heard an extremely harsh noise coming from the flower hall.

A moment later, Zheng Song came out of the hall carrying a box of broken porcelain cups. Shen Jiao recognized it at a glance as the old man's favorite set of sky-blue Song Dynasty official kiln porcelain.

They're all smashed?!

Shen Jiao immediately realized that Shen Zhuang was really angry, so she restrained her expression and stepped into the flower hall.
