Sweet Time Only for You: The Entanglement between Mr. Lu and Miss Song-Chapter 255: New Twists in the Case 2
"Lu Jihan, tell me, do you think Dabai will..."
Song Yinyin suddenly choked, tears welling up in her eyes, as she sobbed uncontrollably.
She recalled the children she just saw, each one of them pale and thin, dressed in rags, and some even bore marks of being beaten.
Dabai had never left her side; during those years abroad, she was always with her son. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Song Yinyin couldn’t imagine, if Dabai faced the same fate as those children, what would he become...
Lu Jihan could easily detect her thoughts.
In fact, his mood at this moment wasn’t much calmer than hers.
He wished he could rush in and slaughter each of those traffickers himself, but what good would that do?
Their son hadn’t been found yet, killing them wouldn’t help, and maybe they’d need those accomplices to find some leads.
He suppressed the surge of anger in his heart, reached out, and tightly held Song Yinyin’s small hands, silently comforting her.
Her hands were so cold, Lu Jihan’s brow furrowed slightly, as he placed her hands into his own coat pocket.
Song Yinyin’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, her hands moved a little, but she didn’t pull away, merely closed her eyes silently.
Upon opening them again, she said, "Lu Jihan, you know, during those years abroad, I faced all kinds of challenges alone with Song Dabai, but I’ve never felt this kind of fear before."
Taking a deep breath, she looked up at him and said, "I’m starting to regret it."
"Regret what?" he asked, brow furrowed.
"Regretting bringing my son back to the country, I shouldn’t have brought Dabai back." She shook her head, tears silently slipping from the corners of her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jihan squinted his sharp eyes: "Nonsense!"
Perhaps it was unfortunate for her, but to him, the return of his son and her appearance was nothing less than a godsend.
As they spoke, someone behind them lightly cleared their throat.
Song Yinyin instinctively took a step back, turned around, and saw Officer Zhang coming out, though she hadn’t noticed when.
He said, "We just questioned those traffickers, and one recalls that among the two fugitives, there is a 30-year-old man named Daming whose ex-girlfriend lives in the Mountain District of Jiangnan County, Imperial City. We are currently trying to contact that woman, perhaps she can lure Daming out. Also, we need to monitor both your number and Miss Song’s, just in case."
"Alright," Lu Jihan nodded.
He and Song Yinyin went to the surveillance room where the technicians were already waiting.
As if he had a premonition, Lu Jihan suddenly felt his phone vibrate.
He looked at the screen; it was a suspicious number with no display, so he quickly signaled to Officer Zhang.
Officer Zhang nodded and had the technicians connect the signal.
The person on the other end, unaware they were being monitored, arrogantly stated, "Mr. Lu, have you been waiting long for news about your son? Haha, here’s a surprise for you, your son is with me."
Lu Jihan squinted his sharp eyes, realizing the caller already knew his identity and knew Song Dabai was his son.
At this point, it seemed the nature of this case had changed.
The other party probably intended to kidnap for ransom, rather than simply trafficking children!
With a tone that was unusually calm, he said, "Speak, what do you want?"
