“That’s good.” Shane nodded slightly and did not ask further. Instead, he walked toward a police officer and inquired about the situation.
The police officer replied that they were already keeping an eye on the surrounding security footage. They would soon figure out the route that the kidnappers took.
After a few minutes, the route was identified.
However, the bad news was there were two different routes.
“Why are there two routes?” Joyce frowned, feeling puzzled.
Silas adjusted his spectacles. “After leaving the parking lot, the car which brought madam away probably separated from the car that almost hit you. Looks like the mastermind has already guessed that we’ll determine the routes via the security footage. They took separate routes so we won’t know which car madam is in.”
“Yeah, both cars are black and don’t have any license plates. Once they go separate ways, it’d hard to determine where the hostage is.” The police officer sitting in front of the computer chimed in.
Shane gripped the two maps with routes tightly. “Then, let’s chase after both of them!”
“I’m afraid that this won’t be feasible.” The police officer shook his head. “The cars are driving out of the city. Looking at their routes, there will be no more security footage if they drive for ten more miles. We won’t be able to determine their subsequent route after that.”
“So, the possibility of finding Nat will be much smaller by then?” Joyce paled.
He nodded. “That’s right. Unless we stop them before they drive out of the parameter of the security footages.”
“How can that be possible?” Joyce pointed at the computer. “Although I don’t understand these routes, I know what the red and blue dots represent. The red dots are the two cars, and we are the blue dots. We’re around thirty miles away from them, so we definitely can’t catch up with them!”
When she said that, the office descended into silence.
Shane had an urge to crumple the maps in his hands.
Silas took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, which had become sore from looking at the computer. “If only madam has an electronic tracking device on her.”
“An electronic tracking device?” When Joyce heard that, her eyes lit up.
Shane narrowed his eyes and stared at her intently. “Do you know something?”
