Chapter 812 Find them at all costs!
Meanwhile...
Luke had listened to Bianca on the phone while she was kidnapped by the group of unscrupulous thugs. Flames of anger ravaged his entire being.
The sheer audacity! Only the people from the League of Shadows could be this bold and put on such a display of arrogance! Kassy was the first person that came to mind when he wondered who could be pulling the strings behind the scenes.
He knew full well about Kassy's ruthlessness. Fearing for his wife and children's lives, he abandoned his luxury car, hijacked a motorcycle, and bolted to the scene of the incident as fast as he could.
However, he was already too late.
The crime scene had been cordoned off and about a quarter-mile of the main road was blocked.
About 120 people in total were gathered at the scene, comprising of security, special police officers, firemen, and police forces. Dozens of police vehicles could be seen. A large number of police officers and good citizens were helping with the accident. Many were injured and sent to the hospital for treatment.
Looking at the scene full of wreckage, Luke sent a heavy fist smashing into the motorcycle.
The motorcycle fell to the ground with a loud thud.
With his hands still trembling, he dialed a number before he even had time to calm the anger in his chest...
Percy and Jim arrived at the scene within ten minutes after picking up Luke's call.
It was incredulous how quickly they arrived.
Luke was still at the scene. Together with the police chief, they asked the witnesses what they had seen. He was shocked to learn there had been a gunfight.
Some of them had taken out their phones to record footage of Bianca and the children being kidnapped.
After watching the videos, Luke became calm and quiet.
The police chief saw Percy walking toward them. Percy acted as if the police were not present.
Despite the grumbling in his heart, the police chief still had to be civil with him.
"Mr. Mallory, Mr. Holston," the chief smiled and greeted them with respect.
Jim nodded to the police chief, while Percy did not bother to pay any attention to him. He just walked straight toward Luke.
Percy was surprised by his calm demeanor. "What’s Bianca's situation right now? Do you know who did this?"
A City was Luke's territory. Nobody sane would ever dare cross him.
Jim sympathetically patted Luke's shoulder. "Brother, what’s done is done. No amount of worrying will help. Percy and I will do everything we can to help you find the culprit. These kidnappers clearly look like they have a plan and a purpose. From the look of things, they’ve been planning this for a longtime."
Luke scanned the surroundings. "I suspect that the people who did it are from the League of Shadows. If my guess is correct, Kassy must be the one behind Bianca's kidnapping." His voice was calm with a
hint of anxiety.
Percy's expression became solemn. "If it’s confirmed that the League of Shadows is behind this, then Bianca and the children are in danger. Those people are heartless without any benevolence and morality. They're capable of doing anything. However, if Kassy is the mastermind, then they should be safe for the time being. That woman will definitely use them to make you do her bidding... We must find their hiding place before they make a move on Bianca, or the consequences will be unthinkable."
Percy had not dealt much with the people from League of Shadows, but he knew that that organization had always been genocidal and did not have any conscience at all when taking up assignments.
Although the leader of League of Shadows, Robert, had died in his hands, the organization was still active and was not a power to be underestimated.
Luke's heart completely sank. The thought that Bianca and the children may be hurt because of him made him overwhelmed and angry.
"Percy, Jim!" Luke's voice was cold as he said, "Do everything you can. I must find out the whereabouts of my wife and children and Kassy at all costs!"
Percy narrowed his eyes. "Don't worry about it, Jim and I will do our best! How dare they kidnap Bianca in broad daylight?! These people must have balls of steel!"
Jim shook his head and began to order his men.
He had been friends with Luke for so many years, but never once had he seen Luke lose his cool like this-much less seen him being so fearful of anything. The current sight in front of him was an eye- opener.
Luke closed his eyes to have a breather.
No matter who was behind the kidnapping of his wife and children, he swore that he would find them and then break their bodies into pieces!
After another long stretch of time, the military SUV slowly stopped and the harsh light of the sunset shone into the car.
Bianca's long eyelashes moved slightly.
Despite the fact that her body was very tired and her spirit was weak, she forced herself to open her eyes.
Her little ones were still drowsily asleep in the car. Seeing that they were still by her side, Bianca could not help but feel slightly relieved.
"Bring them to the abandoned factory!" one of the men commanded in a rude and stern voice.
Bianca's heart was appalled. She opened her eyes slightly and saw that the surrounding area was full of wild wormwood that was as tall as a person.
It was a secluded place. Gravel was laid on the rugged, winding path that curved like a snake. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The road led to a large abandoned old factory.
The factory looked like it had been built many years ago. The doors and windows were broken, while the paint on the concrete walls was peeling off. Several parts of the building had been spray-painted with the word ' demolish'. It seemed like the factory was supposed to be demolished.
"So you’re already awake, huh? Then hurry up and get inside!"
Seeing that Bianca had opened her eyes, the man who was originally in the driver's seat had an axe to grind with her. He gave her a hard push, causing Bianca to stumble out of the car.
Bianca fell onto the gravel and dirt floor. She slowly recovered from her daze.
She had been exposed for pretending to be unconscious. Bianca stopped pretending and looked worriedly at her children.
Fortunately, the thugs did not treat them roughly when they picked up the three unconscious children from the car. Otherwise, she would have collapsed.
Under the thugs' cold, watchful eyes, Bianca and her children were sent inside the factory.
Bianca walked while carefully observing the surrounding terrain. Inside the factory were a bunch of rusty machines. They looked as if they had been used for cutting steel plates. The atmosphere here was ominous...
