Chapter 18 Bad Feeling
Henry immediately reported, “Boss, this village is very remote. There are indeed a lot of people here, but all the villagers have gone out during the day to do farm work. Most of them are returning home from the fields at this time, so there are few people outside the village. Also, there are no outsiders in the village all year round, so the villagers are on guard whenever an outsider enters the village.
I dared not come in rashly lest anything bad happen, so I parked my car about a kilometer away from the village and pretended to be a photographer taking pictures of mountain villages.
Only then did I pretend to take pictures near the door of the house that we’d located in advance. Something is strange, though. I’ve been keeping watch outside the house for most of the day, but its door was closed all the time; I haven’t seen any person coming out of the house.”
Vania was inwardly puzzled, but she couldn’t be bothered about that. At this very moment, she wanted to see her child more than anything else. She replied right away, “Is the money ready?”
Henry took out the leather case containing cash. “Five million in cash—not a penny less than that.”
Vania asked indignantly, “Have you arranged the follow-up stuff? These human traffickers have committed so many crimes that not even death could make up for that. We mustn’t let them hurt another family!”
Henry answered, “Don’t worry, Boss. I’ve got everything arranged to prevent them from killing Little Master. As long as we manage to save him, they’re definitely not gonna be able to run away.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
Vania followed Henry directly toward the house.
