#686 - Chapter 686 Either release the person or destroy the family? Hit the weak spot and take advan
The reconstruction of such a large main urban area is by no means something that can be accomplished overnight.
Most areas are filled with old buildings.
Suddenly!
300 meters away from the Shangri-La Hotel, the taxi drove into a secluded alley.
Sun Yue was on the phone and didn't notice the outside of the car at all. By the time he realized something was wrong with the surroundings, the taxi had already stopped.
The driver got out of the car.
He yanked open the back door!
A fruit knife was pressed against his neck!
"Money… Give me all the money!" The driver's voice trembled.
His name was Zhao Daqiang.
He was indeed a taxi driver, not a robber pretending to be a driver. It was just a combination of many coincidences that turned him into a robber.
Originally, as long as Sun Yue handed over the money, this matter would have ended there.
But…
Zhao Daqiang thought Sun Yue was alone.
"Stop the car! Turn in there!"
The two taxis behind them noticed that something was clearly wrong with the car in front.
When several elites rushed out of the cars, Sun Yue had already had a fruit knife pressed against his neck by Zhao Daqiang.
Seeing these people appear…
Zhao Daqiang was dumbfounded.
"Don't come over!"
He couldn't help but tremble:
"If you… dare to come over, I'll kill him! We'll die together!"
The idea of robbing the money and running away was thwarted by the sudden appearance of the bodyguards, causing Zhao Daqiang to lose control of his emotions.
He felt…
…that he couldn't escape!
This put Sun Yue in even greater danger!
Sun Yue being unharmed was their duty.
Catching criminals?
That was something for later!
Conversely, if anything happened to Sun Yue, they would be guilty of serious dereliction of duty.
"I don't believe it… I don't believe it!"
Zhao Daqiang said with a crying voice:
"I have nothing left, I owe a lot of money… I'm not afraid to die!"
"I'll help you pay off your debts," Sun Yue said calmly.
"I don't believe it… None of you rich people are good!"
"I…"
Sun Yue frowned.
Having been in Chile for so long, he had seen quite a few storms.
Even when faced with a robbery, with a fruit knife against his neck, he could still remain calm.
Resist?
Firstly, he knew his own physical condition.
He was too fat and not agile enough, while the other party had a knife in his hand.
Secondly.
With his current status, taking such a big risk to fight back would be like porcelain colliding with pottery—unless he was out of his mind.
"You think you're not afraid of anything because you think there's no way out?"
Suddenly!
Just at the critical moment of the stalemate, an unsolvable situation.
A cold shout suddenly rang out:
"My name is Chen Hao, the person you're holding is my brother. Do you think that if something happens to my brother, your death alone would be enough? Do you have family? Do you have people you care about?"
"Brother Hao!" Sun Yue shouted excitedly.
"Chairman Chen!"
Several bodyguards bowed and stepped aside.
Suddenly!
Chen Hao walked over step by step.
"You… you…" Zhao Daqiang was frightened.
Chen Hao!
Chairman of Hanteng Capital!
In the eyes of ordinary people, his status was unimaginably high, and for ordinary people, a single sentence could determine life and death!
"Yes, it's me."
Chen Hao stared at Zhao Daqiang:
"Either let him go, and I'll guarantee you live."
"Or, not only will you die, but your family will be ruined!"
"I said it!"
He knew that the other party was already in a desperate situation and didn't care about his own life or death.
In this case…
…the only way to break the situation was to threaten him with the people he cared about!
"Why?!"
A trace of fear flashed in Zhao Daqiang's eyes, and he roared with a crying voice:
"Why does the country want to cheat me?! We were clearly winning all the time, clearly… we could still win the final!"
Chen Hao was stunned.
He immediately guessed the clue:
"You bet on soccer?"
"You… how do you know?!" Zhao Daqiang was shocked.
That's right!
Everything stemmed from gambling on soccer!
He was born in the countryside, and his family conditions were already very poor. The taxi was not his either, but he was driving it for someone else.
With the good momentum of economic development, he had finally saved some money in the past two years.
He was thinking of saving enough money to buy his own car, so he could earn more.
More than half a month ago.
In an unintentional opportunity, he heard from other taxi drivers that he could bet on the World Cup.
The key!
The national soccer team was invincible!
Although the national soccer team was too strong, resulting in very, very low odds, but the advantage was that it was absolutely guaranteed, wasn't it?
He started betting on soccer.
Thinking that although the odds were low, he could still earn a little.
Because he believed he had absolute certainty, he borrowed from relatives and friends, plus the money he had earned, and he put everything on the games that the national soccer team participated in, until tonight's final…
At first, he didn't know.
He happened to pick up Sun Yue at the airport.
On the way.
He heard relevant news from the car's tape recorder.
It said that the Brazilian players' physique was not inferior to that of the Chinese national soccer team, and with the advantage of technical level, they took the lead by one point not long after the start.
Attention!
Earlier.
During the group stage between China and North America, the gene reagent incident was exposed on the spot.
Both countries were developing it at the same time.
North America, however, was isolated because of the large side effects. In other words, only China now possesses the powerful gene reagent, and Brazilian players theoretically cannot have such a strong physique.
Unless…
…they were also injected with gene reagent!
Where did the reagent come from?
It could only be from China!
Knowing that he would lose all his money, Zhao Daqiang's psychological defense collapsed.
If it was just his own money, it would be fine, but the key was that he had borrowed from relatives and friends.
What to do?
He speculated that China gave the Brazilian team gene reagent…
He felt cheated!
Coincidentally, Sun Yue was talking to Chen Hao, saying something about wine pools and meat forests, and also saying that he was in Chile—in short, he looked like a rich man.
Therefore.
Zhao Daqiang, at the end of his rope, under the influence of various negative emotions, temporarily came up with the idea of robbing Sun Yue.
Originally, it would have been over if he had robbed him.
Unfortunately, Sun Yue's bodyguards chased after him.
Seeing that he couldn't escape…
Zhao Daqiang was completely desperate, and finally went for broke!
"Do you have a smartphone?" Chen Hao asked.
"No… What do you want to do? Don't come over!" Zhao Daqiang was already outwardly fierce but inwardly weak.
"See clearly!"
Chen Hao took out his phone, opened the headline APP.
After entering the keywords, he found the newly released news and turned the screen towards him:
"The country has already issued an announcement! Citizens who participated in soccer gambling can directly report the bookmakers and recover their funds!"
"Re… Really?! I can't see…" Zhao Daqiang exclaimed.
He was too far away.
He couldn't see the news on the phone clearly.
"I'll get closer," Chen Hao walked towards him.
"You…"
Zhao Daqiang wanted to say 'Don't come over', but then he thought, if he didn't get closer, how could he see?
Seven meters.
Five meters.
Three meters.
"Don't move! Stand there! Point the phone at me!"
"Okay," Chen Hao nodded.
Three meters.
The words were too small to see clearly.
"I'll throw it over, you can see for yourself."
Chen Hao threw the phone, but his aim was slightly off, on Zhao Daqiang's right side.
His right hand was holding the knife.
The phone was thrown to the right, and his left hand couldn't catch it.
Under conditioned reflex, his right hand holding the knife reached out to catch it.
Three meters away!
Whoosh!
Chen Hao rushed forward like an arrow!
