Chapter 1461 My Son is My Life
To protect his wife and cat AI children's ident.i.ties as hackers, Jin Liwei took the restored video footage and presented it to the police, telling them that the experts he privately hired were the ones who retrieved them.
The police believed him because he was Jin Liwei, the CEO of Jin Corporation. He had the money and power to hire experts that even the police force could only dream of.
The police officers took away the evidence to examine it among themselves first. They haven't shown it to Jiang Ying Yue, Lin Yehan, Long Hui, and Long Tengfei yet.
Jin Liwei felt a little relieved. If they all watched what the kidnappers did to Little Jun and Gravy without any preparation, then they would most definitely either collapse or turn berserk.
His wife, Iris, was still in the other room doing what she was best at with her laptop. If Jiang Ying Yue turned hysterical, none of the men here would be able to help calm her down. Only a fellow mother like Iris would have the proper energy to understand the gravity of Jiang Ying Yue's emotions.
Of course, Jiang Ying Yue had the right to know what her son went through, but it was best to give her a warning first to prepare her heart.
Before long, the kidnappers were identified. They were small-time crooks. The older ones had already served time in prison for petty crimes.
The police concluded that these crooks shouldn't be smart or thorough enough to execute a rather sophisticated kidnapping plan like this. Based on their usual modus operandi, they couldn't have possibly had the ability to delete the public surveillance footage or toss their victim's items to prevent tracking all by themselves.
There was only one strong possibilitysomeone was guiding them from the shadows. These kidnappers were nothing more than mere marionettes.
There had to be a mastermind.
Jin Liwei and the others' expressions turned ugly.
"Please tell us if you know people who might have motives to kidnap the child," a police officer asked them. "People who might have grudges against you."
Jin Liwei was silent for a while. As the head of Jin Corporation, he had plenty of enemies. Since he married his wife, her enemies also became his enemies. The list of the couple's enemies was long. freReadNovelFull.com
Lin Yehan frowned but shook his head. Of course, there were people who he didn't like and disagreed with, but he didn't think of them as outright enemies. Then his gaze fell on Long Hui.
The other man saw Lin Yehan looking at him. Long Hui snapped, "What the h.e.l.l are you looking at me for?!"
"Long Hui's ex-wife," Jiang Ying Yue said.
Everyone turned to look at her.
"Please explain more, Mrs. Lin," the police officer said.
Jiang Ying Yue looked at Long Hui with barely concealed hatred flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes. "Long Hui's ex-wife, Mao Qiuyue, has the biggest motive to kidnap my son."
Long Hui: "I don't think"
"Just try to defend that woman in front of me!" Jiang Ying Yue interrupted Long Hui before he could finish what he was going to say. "Our son has been kidnapped, Long Hui! The police are asking us for people who might have motives to do this. And I think that your ex-wife has the biggest one! She already tried harming Little Jun before! She can do it again! Even if she's already in jail, her family can take revenge for her! Their lives turned upside-down because Mao Qiuyue targeted us mother and son before! And it's all because of you! Don't you know that? Long Hui, just try to defend your ex-wife in front of me, and I swear to the heavens that I'll break your bones. I don't care if the police arrest me, I'll break your bones if you try to defend Mao Qiuyue in front of me when our son's in danger!"
The police officers subtly changed their stances just in case she followed on her threat.
Lin Yehan locked her in his gentle yet firm embrace. He didn't say anything to stop or encourage her, but his actions indicated that he wanted her to calm down.
Of course, she understood what he meant, but she didn't want to listen.
How could she stay calm when her only son was in danger? S
he didn't even know if her son was still alive or not.
Oh, please, please, please! Just let her son be alive!
She would do anything and everything! Just please let Little Jun still be alive!
"Yehan!" Jiang Ying Yue broke down once again. She sobbed on her husband's chest. "Please save my son! I won't be able to live anymore if something ever happens to Little Jun. Please, Yehan! I beg you! My son is my life! We need to save him!"
Lin Yehan's jaw clenched. He embraced his sobbing wife, trying to comfort her, even though he knew that nothing would calm her down except for Little Jun's return and seeing the child alive and safe and sound.
"Ying Yue, I'll do everything to find our son," Lin Yehan promised his wife.
Long Hui glared at Lin Yehan but didn't snap at the man anymore. Although he hated Lin Yehan for referring to Little Jun as "our son", Long Hui decided to let it pa.s.s. Jiang Ying Yue's heart-wrenching sobs made him feel as if his heart was being sliced open.
He also took a few moments to think about the possibility of Mao Qiuyue being the one to order the kidnapping of his son. The more he thought about it, the more possible it felt.
He hated to admit it, but the woman he has been married to was a venomous snake. Marrying Mao Qiuyue was a huge mistake. Instead of helping him achieve his ambitions, she dragged him down instead.
And now she dared order the kidnapping of his son?
How dare she?!
Long Hui's eyes burned with loathing. He had already convicted Mao Qiuyue with the crime in his mind.
"Officer, please investigate Mao Qiuyue and the Maos!" he asked the police.
