Chapter 2285:
The night was cold and dark, which was not conducive to investigation and evidence collection. The police dutifully recorded all the evidence they could obtain and prepared to close the team.
The Woods, father and daughter, and their bodyguards abandoned the car and their whereabouts were unknown. Even if they wanted to pursue them, they would not know which direction they were going. They could only wait for the other party to initiate negotiations.
Professor Murray, Professor Evan, is a scientific researcher and has never studied solving crimes. Naturally, he will not comment on the work of professionals. He just repeatedly asked the police to solve the case as soon as possible and rescue the hostages.
The Police wanted to temporarily close the team, but Le Yun did not object. She just said that she wanted to stay and wait for the other party to contact her, and let her mentor and Police go back first.
Professor Murray and Professor Evan firmly disagreed, but they tried their best to convince Little Sweetheart to go back with them, but in the end they were convinced.
The two professors followed the police car back to the city center with worries.
Le Yun sent the professor and police away, scanned all directions, and made sure it was very safe. She stepped on the flying sword and flew towards the east coast of Country Y.
After flying for a period of time, we reached the undulating mountain peaks, landed in a safe place, took out the aircraft, and filled it with spirit stones. We did not stop until the spirit stones absorbed by the energy array of the aircraft reached a saturated state.
There is a saying that "if you want to do your job well, you must sharpen your weapons." She was going to take a trip to Johnson's hometown. Since she was going to fly across the ocean, she naturally had to add enough energy to the aircraft.
Johnson's Wood family is in Chicago, country M. Country M and country Y are in different time zones, so there is a time difference. There is a 6-hour time difference between the capital of country Y and Chicago.
From Le's classmate calling the police, then going to the hotel, then to the car rental, and then to the countryside dozens of miles away, it took several hours. By the time the little Loli sneaked to a safe place to prepare, it was already Y It's past eleven o'clock in the evening.
According to the time difference, it is also evening in country M.
Le Xiaoxiao filled the aircraft with spiritual feet, opened the protective cover, and took the aircraft to the country M on the other side of the ocean.
Country M and Country Y face each other across the ocean. The flight between the capitals of the two countries only takes 4 hours, so the distance is quite close.
Student Le Xiao sat on his "private plane" and flew at an altitude of 10,000 meters. It took him nearly four hours to finally fly over Lake Michigan in the north of country M.
Arriving near the destination, he put away the aircraft, got into the man-made mobile cave, and then controlled the man-made mobile cave to land freely, landing on a small seat.
After landing safely, classmate Le Xiao grabbed a pigeon from space and let the bird fly to Chicago in a man-made mobile cave.
The man-made cave is very heavy. Even if the size is reduced, the total weight remains unchanged. Not to mention that a bird cannot carry it, even if it is thrown on the back of a whale, it will not be able to hump.
Student Le Xiao used special talisman paper, and the total weight of the artificial cave was approximately equivalent to two taels of items. Although the weight was a bit heavy for a pigeon, it could barely carry it.
Caught as a pigeon as a flying machine, the hunchback, an invisible but heavy thing, spread its wings and tried its best to fly across the lake and into the human city.
Leyun used her mental power to control the pigeon's flight direction, passing through dense high-rise buildings and going to a rich area with dense old buildings.
Most of the houses in that area are buildings left over from the last century or before. They are of various types, simple and colorful, and have a sense of history.
The current owners of those houses are all wealthy people.
After entering the vicinity of the target, Le Yun accurately found the residence of the Wood family based on the smell, and asked the pigeon to lower its flying height.
The head of the Wood family lives in a large castle that is more than two hundred years old. The castle is composed of several buildings. The main tone is a four-story building, mostly made of white marble and brick, sand and stone. It combines European and North American native style, diverse roofs.
There is a garden in front of the castle, and a large lawn with a small lake and woods behind it, where you can play golf.
The castle has no walls. The garden is enclosed by a fence. The fence gate uses an automatic fence equipped with the latest system. Many secret places outside the castle building are equipped with surveillance systems.
January in Chicago is also the season with the lowest temperatures of the year. The highest temperature is about 2 degrees, and it is usually a few degrees below zero.
It was very cold at night, and the windows of the castle were closed, leaving most of them with light.
Upon reaching the top of the castle, Le Yun, who was hiding in the man-made cave, made an interesting discovery - the Wood family seemed to be holding a meeting.
Many people in their family were gathered in a building and were arguing.
Leyun's hearing was excellent. After listening to a few sentences, she knew they were having a meeting. She let the pigeon fly at low altitude to a secret and safe corner on the top of the castle and stayed there while she focused on exploring how many monitoring devices there were in the castle.
After some investigation, the results were obtained. The most advanced surveillance equipment was installed outside the castle building and in the garden, but there were no cameras inside the building.
After studying how many cameras there were, Le Yun controlled the surveillance camera with her mental power, sent the pigeon back to the star core space, put a squirrel skin coat on the little fox, and let him out.
The little fox placed the man-made mobile cave on top of his head and worked hard without complaint. He swaggered across the roof platform, climbed down the wall to the side of the castle, then walked around the castle and sprinkled some medicinal powder in the hidden corners. .
Walking around the castle surrounded by street lights, the little fox easily climbed the wall to the window, then got into a cafe through the window, visited the castle, and sprinkled the corridors on each floor with sprinkles. Medicinal powder.
The Wood family held a meeting in a small conference room in the main building, and the atmosphere was not very good.
Two hours ago, Badauer of the Cassel family called Johnson and asked Johnson why they kidnapped Ms. Oriental Doctor's brother and friend.
Badall originally didn't know that Johnson of the Wood family had kidnapped the doctor's brother and friend. It was Daniel of the Russell family who knew the news from his friend Professor Ian who taught at Cambridge University, and then passed the news on to him.
Badall heard that Johnson of the Wood family had been refused treatment by the doctor because his daughter's lupus relapsed, so he kidnapped the doctor's brother and used it as a bargaining chip to threaten the doctor. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Old Mr. Cassel was so angry that he naturally went to settle the score with Johnson. He had good intentions for the sake of his partner Johnson, so he helped find a doctor to save Johnson's niece. Who knew that Johnson was a piece of shit? What's even more abominable is that just because the doctor refused to treat Jenny again, he actually kidnapped the doctor's brother.
Johnson had no credibility at all and committed evil deeds of repaying kindness with revenge. Badal was so angry that he directly went to Johnson to question what the Wood family meant.
Johnson just returned to Chicago from South America in the afternoon. He had sorted out his work and was very tired. Before he had time to understand the situation of Johnson's medical treatment in Cambridge, he returned to the main castle to rest. When he was called by Badall's phone call, ,shocked.
The frightened Johnson immediately notified the family members. The Wood patriarch knew that Johnson had done something stupid and was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot.
Johnson had already done something stupid, and getting angry would not help. Chief Wood notified the staff to convene an emergency meeting. Those who were not in the family for the time being could participate remotely if they were able to do so via remote video.
Wood's castle is very wide. In addition to various halls, there are more than 200 rooms. In addition to the Wood family members themselves, there are also bodyguards, nannies, and Filipino maids.
There are nearly ninety people in the Wood family who live in the family castle. Some work in Chicago and are far away from the castle and do not return to the castle every day. Some go to other cities or abroad. There are more than fifty people in the castle that day.
Children, housewives, and people who were not involved in the family business did not participate in the meeting. A total of more than 30 people went to the main hall on the first floor of the main building to hold an emergency meeting. People who lived in other places in Chicago were also summoned. When we came back, there were more than forty people in total.
Bodyguards guarded various passages and doorways to prevent stray people from approaching.
Before the others in the Wood family came back, Johnson called Badall and asked about the incident in detail. He also talked on the phone with Daniel Russell in Cambridge, confirming the authenticity of Johnson's kidnapping of the doctor's brother.
They tried to contact Johnson and the bodyguards he brought with him, but everyone there couldn't get through.
Everyone in the Wood family was very angry when they couldn't contact Johnson. That idiot Johnson just disappeared after doing something stupid. Do you want to leave the mess for them to deal with?
Everyone was in a very bad mood. We first studied where Johnson took the hostages to hide in Country Y and what connections he would use.
If Johnson could be found as soon as possible and asked to send the doctor's brother back intact and then apologize, it might be possible to calm the doctor's anger.
The Wood family has business cooperation in Europe, but their main business is in the Americas. Even they themselves don't know if Johnson has any other good personal friends in country Y, so when he hides, they don't know where he will go. where.
They were more worried about the Eastern girl's reaction, wondering whether she would take revenge on the Wood family.
They felt that after this incident, even if the Oriental Girl did not retaliate against the Wood family, the Cassel, Howard, and Ferrari families would feel that their family had a bad reputation and were ungrateful, and might slowly reduce their business cooperation with them.
If they lose the cooperation trust of those families, their investment business in Europe will be greatly affected.
The Wood family did not want to lose its European partners, so they worked together and tried their best to think of ways to save Kuangyuan, but in fact they did not achieve any substantial results.
They were having a meeting. The little fox visited other buildings in the castle and went to the main building. He sprayed medicine on the corridors on the second, third and fourth floors, then climbed out of a window and went to the first floor where the meeting was held.
The fireplace in the main hall on the first floor was used all day, making the hall warmer. The Wood family formed a semicircle facing the direction of the fireplace.
There were bodyguards guarding the stairwell from the second floor to the first floor. The little fox climbed out of the building and climbed along the wall to a window on the first floor. He quietly observed Chaoxian through the gap between the open blinds and borrowed the curtains. Covering his face, he sneaked in quietly, slipped into the hall, and happily sprinkled a handful of powder.
The little fox was hiding on the side of a sofa, listening happily in the corner.
