Both of them lowered their voices and remained silent, trying their best not to disturb Lu Jincheng.
Yet Ji Yao's eyes conveyed urgency, and her entire being was fraught with nervousness.
Lu Jincheng steadied his mind and connected the call to inquire.
"What's the status?"
"We just saw a man pretending to pass by, but in actuality he took the money. Boss Lu, we didn't act rashly; what should we do now, should we directly apprehend him?"
The volume on Lu Jincheng's phone was loud enough for the other two to hear this piece of news.
Hearing that the kidnapper might have finally been spotted, Ji Yao's heart clenched with anxiety.
In response to his subordinate's question, Lu Jincheng had his own ideas.
"No, this is just someone who's taken the money, and we can't guarantee they're the mastermind behind this. What if he's just a decoy they've thrown out? Don't act impulsively and don't tip them off; I'm worried the kidnapper's accomplices might harm the hostage."
