The border between Siam and Burma.
Two cars were speeding through the night, one in front of the other.
"Stop."
Said the man sitting in the passenger seat of the first car.
Both cars stopped.
The sunroof of the first car opened, and a drone flew up. This drone was produced by Xingmeng Technology, but it had been modified after it fell into their hands.
The original drone didn't have infrared cameras, but this one did.
The drone ascended to a height of two hundred meters and moved forward. Their location was already very close to the target location.
Five minutes passed, and the drone scouted the area. They didn't find any abnormalities.
"Move forward another three or four hundred meters."
"Then we'll proceed on foot."
The two cars drove a little further.
Two people got out of the SUV in front, the driver stayed in the car, and four people got out of the van behind.
The six people quickly formed two tactical teams.
The two tactical teams advanced with a distance of several dozen meters between them, and the drivers in the two cars were ready to provide support at any time.
Before long, one of the teams entered an abandoned warehouse.
The warehouse was pitch black, but they could see with their night vision goggles.
"Safe."
The team checked the place and reported.
The three members of the second tactical team also entered the warehouse.
"Everyone, search carefully."
"There should be a hidden secret room."
"The mobile phone positioning signal was sent from here."
One of them whispered.
They searched carefully. After five minutes, one of them said, "Captain, I found an iron plate here."
Everyone approached. Four of them slowly moved the iron plate away, and a downward passage appeared.
"Be careful."
The captain said solemnly.
After he finished speaking, he slowly went down first.
Soon, the captain frowned. There was a long tunnel below. Even if there were satellites watching this place all the time, they wouldn't know if the kidnappers had left from another place.
"Safe."
The captain said.
Three of the remaining five team members came down, and the other two stayed outside to guard against the enemy blocking them in here.
"Captain, there's a room here."
Not long after, one of the team members called out. The captain and others walked over. There was a stench in the room. The captain turned on his flashlight, and there was excrement in the corner of the room.
"Captain, look."
One of the team members suddenly said.
There were words carved in stone on the wall.
"Zhang Yang was here."
The captain said in a deep voice, "It seems we've found the place. This is where Zhang Yang was held. Search carefully and see if there are any other clues."
"Yes!"
They searched carefully.
They put any suspicious items into evidence bags.
"Let's split up and search."
The four of them split into two groups and went to both ends of the tunnel.
This tunnel was one or two kilometers long, and there were several other exits. For a while, they didn't know which exit the kidnappers had left through.
"Everyone, come back first."
The captain issued the order.
They left the tunnel and returned to the abandoned warehouse.
"Captain, I feel that the other party deliberately chose this location, making us think that the positioning was intentional."
One of the team members analyzed.
The captain said in a deep voice, "Send the intelligence back first."
Soon, they sent out the intelligence.
...
"Di Di!"
Lin Chen's phone rang.
He was in the study replying to emails at the moment.
"Tianlang, what's the situation?"
Lin Chen answered the phone and asked.
Tianlang told him the latest intelligence.
Lin Chen frowned. In this situation, his intuition told him that Zhang Yang's kidnapping was not that simple.
"Mr. Lin, this location was likely deliberately chosen by the other party. Even if we use satellites, it won't work."
Tianlang said on the other end of the phone.
"Mm."
Lin Chen hung up the phone and frowned secretly.
The other party was definitely not ordinary kidnappers.
"No matter what their purpose is, the fox's tail will definitely be revealed."
Lin Chen's eyes flashed.
He continued to concentrate on the emails.
Those emails were all sent to him by big shots. Their research projects were stalled or the research direction was wrong, and a lot of national funds were wasted every day.
...
The night passed.
The news of Zhang Yang's disappearance spread on the Internet.
If he was just an ordinary person, it might not cause much of a stir. There are many missing people in the world every year.
But he was Lin Chen's friend.
Lin Chen now has a high reputation all over the world.
This news not only spread on the Chinese Internet, but also on foreign Internet.
"What's wrong with Siam recently?"
"The Wang Mou incident hasn't subsided yet, and Zhang Yang went to Siam for tourism and disappeared again. The director of the Siam Culture and Tourism Bureau felt like the sky was falling after waking up."
"With a awesome friend like Master Lin, I estimate that Zhang Yang will be rescued and return to China soon."
Many people on the Internet were talking about it.
"Husband, many people on the Internet are @ing you. Do you have to respond to Zhang Yang's matter?"
Xu Mengyao got up and took her mobile phone to the study and said.
"It's exposed?"
Lin Chen was stunned.
Xu Mengyao said in surprise: "Husband, you didn't sleep last night and were busy with work?"
Lin Chen sleeps very late every day, and he will look at his mobile phone before going to bed. If he fell asleep, he should know about this.
Lin Chen stood up.
He hugged Xu Mengyao and kissed her on the face: "I didn't sleep last night. It's okay if I don't sleep occasionally."
"What's going on?"
Xu Mengyao: "The news of Zhang Yang's disappearance has spread all over the Internet, and many people on foreign websites know about it."
"There are many people talking about this in your Douyin comment area."
Lin Chen took out his mobile phone and looked at it.
Indeed, there were many people discussing this.
The heat of the Wang Mou incident some time ago was still lingering, and Zhang Yang had an accident in Siam again after a short interval.
"Husband, are you going to respond to this?"
Lin Chen nodded slightly: "I definitely have to respond. He is my friend. If he is kidnapped and I don't care, what will others think of me?"
Lin Chen thought for a while and issued a notice.
He will respond to Zhang Yang's arrest in a live broadcast at noon.
"Wow, Master Lin is actually going to broadcast live."
"Zhang Yang's arrest actually has such benefits."
"I don't know what Master Lin will say."
Many people on the Internet were talking about it.
Tianlang soon received the news and called: "Mr. Lin, you have to pay attention to responding to this in the live broadcast."
"Zhang Yang is your friend, you certainly can't be indifferent, but you can't show too much concern, otherwise the risks to some of your other friends may increase."
"The risks to your wife and daughter will increase."
Lin Chen said: "Tianlang, I understand."
Time soon arrived at noon.
Lin Xiaoqian fell asleep.
Lin Chen started the live broadcast. As soon as it started, countless people poured into the live broadcast room, and the entire live broadcast room became stuck.
Fortunately, Douyin urgently handled the situation and prevented the live broadcast room from crashing.
"Hello, everyone."
Lin Chen greeted the camera.
