Chapter 2331 Jiang Wan was filled with remorse.

Jiang Wan came over to check and found that Bai Qiang had been shot, with at least five or six bullets in his body.

The man was probably not going to make it; there was blood everywhere on the ground, and his face was as pale as paper, clearly indicating that he had breathed but not taken any more.

Jiang Wan's face turned pale.

She tricked Bai Qiang today, firstly to test him, and secondly to find an opportunity to arrest him, take him to a secluded place, and interrogate him.

Unexpectedly, this mishap occurred in the middle.

Seeing that he was about to..., she rushed over, grabbed Bai Qiang by the collar, shook his head, and questioned him:

"I'm asking you, what were you going to do with all that glow-in-the-dark fishing line you bought the other day?"

"Did you kidnap a woman? Where did she go?"

Her barrage of questions made Bai Qiang's face turn even paler.

Firstly, she shook me, and secondly, I was dizzy from bleeding so fast.

Seeing that he remained silent, Jiang Wan grew impatient and deliberately spoke in a fierce tone:

"If you don't tell me, I'll kill your son."

"Now that things have come to this, she can only use these words to force him, hoping that Bai Qiang will hesitate to act rashly."

Bai Qiang was indeed afraid. Even though he was about to die, he was still worried that something would happen to his son. He opened his mouth and moved his lips for a long time before squeezing out a few words.

"Someone paid me to kidnap that woman. They've already taken her away, and I don't know where she is."

He insisted on finishing saying that sentence.

With his eyes wide open, he breathed his last.

Looking at Bai Qiang, who had completely lost his breath, Jiang Wan felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through her mind.

Even now, she feels like cursing loudly, as if only in this way can she vent the resentment in her heart.

They had clearly found a clue, but missed it by just one step.

She hates it so much!

Jiang Wan took a deep breath, turned around and looked at Qiao Liancheng, saying:

"Has the person who kidnapped him and lured him here been caught?"

Qiao Liancheng listened and found that everything outside was quiet; there were no more gunshots.

However, there were still many footsteps, indicating that the scene had been brought under control.

He said, "I'll go out and take a look."

"Take care of yourself here."

Jiang Wan waved her hand and said, "It's alright, let's go out together!"

The door had been closed at some point.

Just in case, because it's impossible to determine whether the person outside the door is one of our own or the enemy.

He pushed Jiang Wan to one side of the door and went out to check on her himself.

A moment later, he poked his head out and said, "Come out, the situation outside is under control."

Jiang Wan followed and stepped out, seeing several soldiers cleaning up the battlefield and dragging the dead people out.

Not far away, Gao Xiang was standing at the gate of the courtyard, directing operations.

Jiang Wan rushed over and asked in a low voice, "Dad, have you seen Annie?"

Gao Xiang shook his head and said, "No, when we first arrived here, we saw a car drive away. Annie should be in the car."

"This guy is as slippery as an eel; it's not easy to catch him."

Jiang Wan took a deep breath and said angrily, "It's basically confirmed that Mom was kidnapped."

"The man in the house is dead, but before he died he said someone paid them to kidnap a woman, and they've already handed her over, but they don't know where she is!"

The more Jiang Wan talked, the angrier she became.

I was very annoyed that I had done such a stupid thing. I should have caught him immediately and interrogated him first.

Just as he was feeling down, Qiao Liancheng came over.

Just as he was about to ask what to do next, Jiang Wan suddenly felt a surge of anger.

She turned around and glared at him fiercely, saying, "It's all your fault."

Qiao Liancheng was a little confused, but his wife said it was his fault.

Then blame him.

He hurriedly apologized, saying, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I was too slow and let the prisoner escape."

Jiang Wan shook her head and said, "That's not what I meant. I'm blaming you. Who told you to be a military officer? That's why I became a military wife."

"If it weren't for your reputation, I would have rushed over immediately, given him a good beating, and then interrogated him about whether he had ever seen my mother. That way, I wouldn't have missed the opportunity."

As soon as she finished speaking...

Qiao Liancheng and Gao Xiang both fell silent. What Jiang Wan said made sense. Jiang Wan should have grabbed Bai Qiang and questioned him as soon as she saw him.

Whether it's physical violence, threats, or bribery, you might be able to get clues from him.

But precisely because she was a military wife, and Qiao Liancheng was with her, the two of them were somewhat hesitant to act rashly.

At the very least, one should consider their reputation.

Jiang Wan felt that she still had time to work out a plan to trick Bai Qiang away and then gather more clues along the way.

By capturing him, it would have been easy to get information from him, but in the end, we missed the opportunity.

Gao Xiang knew his daughter was upset and angry.

He patted Jiang Wan on the shoulder helplessly and said, "This is not Qiao Liancheng's fault. Someone always has to bear the burden. It's okay. Next time, we'll be quicker and think more carefully."

Jiang Wan pursed her lips, but ultimately didn't utter any more words of resentment.

Because I knew everyone there was in a bad mood, saying anything more would be going too far.

Since that's the case, she decided that next time she encountered the same situation, she would take the initiative and not worry about saving face or reputation anymore.

She rubbed her temples and said:

"I'll go find Bai Qiang right now. Bai Qiang should have family and friends, and maybe he can find some clues."

Gao Xiang then said, "You're right."

“I will also send people to investigate Bai Qiang and the people around him.”

“However, since Annie has already intervened, it’s possible that Annie and the people behind her have joined forces. We still need to focus our attention on Annie.”

Jiang Wan said irritably, "I've been busy with things in H country lately, so I've completely ignored Annie."

"Now that I think about it, that woman didn't want to live. Once I find my mother, the first thing I'll do is kill her."

Seeing this, Qiao Liancheng hurriedly came over, grabbed her hand, and scratched her palm.

It means I wanted to appease her and stop her from being angry.

He also noticed that Jiang Wan's temper had become even more volatile since she gave birth.

They might have been able to collect a little before, but now they don't collect anything at all.

Qiao Liancheng and his team's operation failed; they couldn't find Rose, but at least they confirmed that Rose had indeed been kidnapped, which changed the nature of the situation.

Those who went to search in the river all withdrew, and then began to redeploy their forces.

Qiao Liancheng has returned with the twelve zodiac animals.

In that case, this rescue operation will be entrusted to them.

Gao Xiang couldn't wait here indefinitely; there were still many things to do at the military base.

He was first and foremost a soldier of the nation, and only then a husband to Rose.

Both Qiao Liancheng and Jiang Wan could understand this.

Gao Xiang left with his troops the next day.

No sooner had Gao Xiang left than Yuan Xiaohua arrived with Li Xiuying and Li Chengze.
