While they were talking, Qiao Shaoguo also hurried over, avoiding people.
Minister Kang had the accompanying personnel find a place to rest and gather their energy. A tough battle awaited them later that night, so it was crucial they conserved their strength.
Because of the emergency, Minister Kang had already considered their dinner arrangements when they left the county. Besides packing rations from the Armed Forces’ Canteen, he also sent someone to the Gangbang Canteen to borrow a substantial amount of provisions.
Hearing Minister Kang’s arrangements, everyone quickly dispersed and began to eat the rations they had received earlier.
After making these arrangements, Minister Kang approached Huo Jingrui and Qiao Shaoguo. "What’s the situation here now?"
Huo Jingrui recounted his recent findings to them. "I suspect they have a gathering point in the shacks opposite the clinic."
After discussing for a while, Huo Jingrui looked at Qiao Shaoguo. "Qiao Tuan, assign a member from the Agricultural Reclamation Group Public Security Team to each comrade from the Armed Forces Department. This will make our subsequent actions more convenient."
Qiao Shaoguo nodded. "Alright, I’ll make arrangements at the command post shortly."
「Meanwhile.」
A child from the Municipal Authorities’ Primary School was abducted after school. Following the clues, the City Public Security Bureau was arranging for personnel to pursue the kidnappers’ escape route through the night.
The team leader was Deputy Director Tang Haiyang, his expression grave. Among the missing children was his nephew. His sister had already fainted several times from crying. If anything actually happened to the child, he dared not imagine the consequences.
Once all personnel were present and accounted for, he ordered, "Mount your vehicles! Let’s move out!"
Tang Haiyang understood her anguish and felt terrible. "Mom, we’ll find the children as quickly as possible." His thoughts turned to the kidnappers. They’ve all taken lives before. Who knows how they’re torturing those poor children? He steeled his resolve and said, "I have to go now. Wait for my good news."
