Chapter 52: Not-So-Smart Kidnappers
Just as the two were hesitating, the boss came in again.
“Hurry up, or someone will come looking again later.”
The two bandits surrounded the boss. The skinny one said, “Boss, this guy said he’ll give us ten million as long as we let him go, we…”
The boss slapped the skinny one, “Are you an idiot? He says he’ll give it, so he’ll give it? What if we let him go and he calls the police on us?”
The two suddenly realized, “Oh yeah.”
Shi Qingfeng: …This boss showed up at the wrong time.
“I won’t call the police. As long as you let me go, I’ll give you ten million. That’s ten times more than your employer is giving you.”
The boss was unmoved, “That’s just sweet talk. If I let you go, you’ll definitely call the police. We’re not stupid.”
Scarface and the skinny one: “Right, we’re not stupid.”
“Twenty million.”
Scarface and the skinny one’s eyes lit up. That’s enough to spend for the rest of their lives.
Even the boss was a little tempted this time.
Shi Qingfeng continued to persuade, “Your employer is only giving you one million. Divided among the three of you, that’s only three hundred thousand each. Twenty million is more like six million each. I’ll round it up for you to seven million each. That’s not bad.”
This hit their sweet spot, and they were clearly tempted.
Shi Qingfeng continued to add fuel to the fire, “Look, there’s a big difference between seven million and thirty thousand. Your employer is too stingy.”
The three of them: Why does what he’s saying make so much sense?
In this short amount of time, Shi Qingfeng felt that he had recovered some strength and continued to stall them.
It was also fortunate that these were a few idiots. If they were a few clever ones, it would be difficult to fool them.
The mastermind behind the scenes never expected that he would find a few not-so-bright kidnappers, leading to the failure of his plan.
“Let us think about it.”
The boss took his two underlings out.
Shi Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. By now, his family should already know that he had been kidnapped and might already be thinking of ways to save him.
Shi Qingyan sped to the abandoned building.
Looking at the desolate surroundings, there were no other sounds except for the chirping of insects and birds.
Shi Qingyan lightened his steps and quickly went upstairs.
When he reached the ninth floor, Shi Qingyan heard voices.
Skinny: “Big Brother, should we let him go? That’s seven million, seven million each.”
Scarface: “Yeah, we can definitely spend it carefully for the rest of our lives. The employer is really stingy, only giving us one million. Dividing it, what can we do with it? We can’t even afford a house.”
Boss: Stop talking, I’m starting to waver.
The two continued, “Boss, why don’t we agree? We’ll take the money and fly abroad. They won’t be able to find us.”
The boss thought for a while and nodded, “Okay, then let’s let him go.”
The three of them made a decision and returned upstairs. As soon as they entered, they saw someone untying Shi Qingfeng.
“Damn, stop! Rescuing someone in front of us, are you looking down on us?”
Shi Qingyan felt that he was talking nonsense. He was such a big person, how could he not be seen?
Shi Qingyan untied Shi Qingfeng, “You’ve all taken my brother’s money, shouldn’t you let my brother go?”
Shi Qingfeng didn’t expect Shi Qingyan to appear in this abandoned building.
Shi Qingfeng’s first words when he saw Shi Qingyan were: “Why are you here? Leave quickly.”
Shi Qingyan didn’t speak, making Shi Qingfeng anxious to throw him home.
Now that he had been discovered, he was even more worried.
“Bullshit, we haven’t even seen the money yet, how can I let him go?”
The boss pointed at Shi Qingyan with a stick, and was fascinated by Shi Qingyan’s obedient appearance.
“Big Brother, if we catch another one, will we have forty million?”
“That’s right, Big Brother.”
Shi Qingfeng didn’t know what to say to them. If he said they were smart, they could be fooled by Shi Qingyan’s few words.
If he said they weren’t smart, they still knew to catch another one to extort more money.
Shi Qingfeng supported his weak body and stood up, protecting Shi Qingyan behind him.
The three kidnappers looked at the brothers, “Now give us forty million, or neither of you will escape.”
Shi Qingyan poked his head out from behind his brother, and his crisp voice made the three dizzy: “No problem, but you have to let my brother go.”
The three thought for a moment and agreed, “No problem.”
Shi Qingfeng couldn’t wait to shut his brother’s mouth, before he could even speak, he heard his brother say, “Brother, hurry up and leave, go out and find someone to save me. You’ve been drugged, it’s inconvenient to move. I’ll wait here, and I can still run away.”
Shi Qingfeng didn’t want to agree. How could he leave his brother here and run away himself?
His brother was like a little rabbit. These people could easily eat him until there were no bones left. How could he rest assured leaving his brother here alone?
Shi Qingyan knew that his brother wouldn’t agree so quickly, “Brother, think about it, they want money, they definitely won’t hurt me, right?”
Looking at Shi Qingyan’s innocent eyes, the three kidnappers nodded.
“Brother, it’s meaningless for the two of us to stay here. You’re smarter than me, you can definitely save me, right?”
Bullshit! Shi Qingfeng cursed in his heart, even if it was right, he couldn’t just leave him here.
Shi Qingyan wasn’t in a hurry. He originally thought that these bandits were desperate, violent, and vicious.
Now it seemed that they were just a few fools.
Shi Qingyan was afraid that Shi Qingfeng would not be able to stand still, so he reached out to support him. Shi Qingfeng didn’t know what to say about this disobedient brother.
“Or, I’ll transfer the money to you, and you let me and my brother go.”
The kidnappers thought, this works.
“Okay, transfer the money now.”
Shi Qingyan took out his phone, quickly sent a message, and then transferred the money to them.
“What are your account numbers?”
A dark light flashed in his bright eyes.
“2454…”
Before long, the kidnappers heard the message that the money had arrived.
They took out their phones and looked. Sure enough, the money had arrived. They excitedly counted the zeros at the end.
“Is it really forty million?”
“I’ve transferred the money. Shouldn’t you let us go?”
“Let you go, you can go.”
Shi Qingyan helped Shi Qingfeng out of the abandoned building, and from afar, they heard the sound of police sirens coming towards them.
Shi Qingyan’s eyes narrowed, and he helped Shi Qingfeng onto the motorcycle.
The kidnappers who followed behind also heard the sound of police sirens.
Looking at the two who were about to get on the motorcycle, their faces turned ugly, and they stepped forward and pulled them off the motorcycle.
Shi Qingyan protected Shi Qingfeng, preventing him from falling, and looked at the kidnappers, “If I were you, I would run away quickly, instead of wasting time here.”
The boss raised his leg and was about to kick Shi Qingyan. Shi Qingfeng’s eyes narrowed, and he used all his strength to pull Shi Qingyan behind him.
Shi Qingyan was originally able to take this kick, but he was pulled by his brother, and the kick landed on Shi Qingfeng.
A muffled sound came, and Shi Qingfeng bent over in pain.
“Brother!”
Shi Qingfeng tried to endure the pain coming from his body and comforted Shi Qingyan.
“I, I’m fine, don’t worry.”
How could he be okay? That kick was kicked with all his strength.
Shi Qingyan’s eyes looking at the three kidnappers were extremely cold.
The three were frightened by this look and took a step back. Hearing the approaching police sirens, they panicked and were about to flee this place.
