261 Danger Descends

Ray led his mercenary team on a stakeout for a few days to figure out Yao Zizhou and Ming Liuyi’s movements.

…

Yao Zizhou would occasionally go to the company, while Ming Liuyi spent most of her time at home with her child.

After a long period of adjustment, Yao Zhaoyang’s condition had recovered quite well. He would return to kindergarten on Monday.

!!
Yao Zizhou was still a little worried, but after living a peaceful life for a long while, Yao Zizhou slowly let down his guard.

On Monday, Yao Zizhou and Ming Liuyi sent Yao Zhaoyang to school, then they returned home.

Ray seized this opportunity and led his team to get their equipment. Soon, they barged into the kindergarten and took control of all the teachers and students.

Unexpectedly, the police had also responded quickly. Before Ray and the others could leave, they surrounded the kindergarten.

“To the people inside, listen up! You’re surrounded. Put down your weapons and accept the judgment of the law,” the Chief of Police said through a loudspeaker.

Parker and the others were not worried. They had been surrounded quite often during their previous missions, and each time they had managed to escape without a problem. This time would be no different.

Ray shared the same thought, so he ignored the police shouting outside.

When Yao Zizhou heard the news, he did not dare let Ming Liuyi know, and he only rushed to the scene with his own security personnel.

When the Chief of Police saw Yao Zizhou, he immediately stepped forward. The Chief of Police was already terribly agitated.

The children who could attend this kindergarten were either rich or belonged to nobility. Many of the grandchildren of government officials were also here.

“Mr. Yao, don’t worry,” the Chief of Police said, “Please believe in the police.”

Yao Zizhou did not say anything. He did not know what the exact situation inside was, so he did not dare to act rashly.

The captain of the SWAT team arrived and shouted through the loudspeaker, “The people inside, if you have any requests, you can voice them. Don’t hurt the hostages.”

Parker looked at Ray, who was resting with his eyes closed, and he said, “Ray, can we ask them to send those two people over?”

Ray shook his head. He knew that the police in this country would not compromise with criminals.

Parker then said, “Then let’s get rid of the small one now, and go after the parents later.”

Ray still shook his head. If they were to kill now, then there would be no escape.

Parker and the others were a little nervous at this moment. Neither option was viable. Then, what should they do?

Ray thought for a moment and said, “Cruise, go to a higher spot and observe. See if we have the targets among the crowd. After all, it’s their child.”

Cruise nodded and went upstairs with his spotter.

…

Ming Liuyi was watching TV at home when the shocking news suddenly appeared on the screen.

When she saw that it was Yao Zhaoyang’s kindergarten, she anxiously got up and ran out. She did not even stop to put on her shoes.

When she reached the place, Ming Liuyi was about to charge in, but Yao Zizhou managed to stop her.

“Let me go, my son is still inside!” said Ming Liuyi. A few policemen also rushed over to stop her.

One of them said, “Ma’am, please calm down. Trust the police. We will save your child.”

Yao Zizhou hugged Ming Liuyi and comforted her, “Nothing has happened for the moment, and we don’t know what these people want.”

…

Ray was still resting with his eyes closed. Soon, Cruise’s voice came from the earpiece, saying, “Ray, I see the targets, but they’re surrounded by security guards. It’s hard for me to aim.”

Ray’s eyes snapped open. He went to grab the child and walk out. A kindergarten teacher went forward to stop him, but Parker smashed his face with the butt of his gun.

Ray grabbed the child and stood at the door. The crowd suddenly panicked.

The SWAT team leader hurriedly stepped forward and said, “What do you want? You can ask for anything. Don’t hurt these children.”

Ray took out the photo from his pocket and said lightly, “Do you see these two? Bring them to me.”

After saying that, Ray turned around and was about to go back inside when he suddenly thought of something. Ray turned around and said, “Oh right, you only have ten minutes. If you exceed the time limit, I’ll kill one person for every minute that passes.”

Then, Ray disappeared into the school again. The SWAT team captain picked up the photo on the ground and found the Chief of Police.

“What is his request?” asked the Chief of Police.

“Chief, the criminals want us to send these two people in,” said the captain.

The Chief of Police was stunned when he saw the photo. ‘Isn’t this a picture of President Yao and his wife? The two of them were just outside.’

“Don’t let anyone know about this,” the Chief of Police said after a moment of thought. “I’ll go and discuss it with President Yao and his wife first. I’ll see if there’s any other way.”
