Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

268: CaptainMr. Ji watched his wife’s actions and did not immediately stop her. It was better to release her emotions than to keep them bottled up.

However, he didn’t completely ignore her either; he gently wrapped his hands around hers, allowing her to slowly release the clothes she was gripping, letting her mood gradually calm down.

”Xiao He, calm down first. Right now, we need to find Ji Tao. We can discuss other matters later.”

Hearing her husband’s words, Mrs. Ji let go of Xu Yuanyuan’s clothes and turned her face away, but she did not apologize to her.

She didn’t want to say anything now, nor would she say anything until her son was found...

With so many people arriving, the place became even more bustling. Unfortunately, the only clue was still that single shoe.

The Ji Family members went to look at the shoe left behind and confirmed it belonged to Ji Tao.

Ji Tao’s mother looked at the shoe on the ground, and her child’s appearance flashed through her mind.

She recalled the scene from this morning where her child happily took food, saying he was going on an outing to eat with his friends, waving goodbye to her. Now, all she could see was one of his shoes.

Ji Tao’s mother cried even more hysterically.

Li Yue saw her state, and thinking of Xu Le, who was also missing, tears streamed down her face involuntarily.

The children’s situation was unknown.

They didn’t know if the children were alive or dead, or if they were suffering. The thought of the children being hurt made their tears flow even harder.

Alas.

People nearby felt uncomfortable seeing their distress.

Everyone searched the park several times again, as if they were digging three feet into the ground, but still found no other clues.

Just when everyone thought no more people would arrive, a large contingent of the Guard Team showed up.

This group of Guard Team members was not here to help; instead, they aggressively took over command as soon as they arrived.

The Guard Team members brought in by the Ji Family did not dare harbor any thoughts of resistance when they saw the person leading the group.

Although the Guard Team members in Province B were much more numerous than in other places, they all shared one thing: there was a Chief Captain. And the person who had just arrived was the Chief Captain of the Province B Guard Team.

Seeing the arrival, the Guard Team members felt a little confused. Was there something special about this case? Why would it alarm the Chief Captain?

Before they could figure it out, the Guard Team Chief Captain gathered everyone present, then waved his hand and commanded:

”Take all the kindergarten teachers and everyone from the park down, detain them separately, and remember to confiscate all communication tools. They are not allowed to contact anyone.”

”Yes.” The Guard Team members and team leaders naturally obeyed the Chief Captain’s words without hesitation, immediately stepping forward to arrest the people, intending to take them away.

”Why are you arresting us? What you are doing is illegal! The incident just happened in the park; it has nothing to do with us park staff.”

Shi Anguo struggled for a moment, but seeing that his initial protests elicited no response from the other party, he tried to directly exempt himself from arrest.

”Furthermore, I arrived later! This is not my business! You cannot wrongly accuse an innocent person.”

The kindergarten director frowned upon seeing this situation. Although she did not resist, she still wanted to ask for the reason.

”May I ask why you are arresting us? We are not responsible for the children’s disappearance. Aren’t we supposed to be looking for the children right now?”

The Guard Team Chief Captain thought for a moment. Many things had not yet been investigated, and it was uncertain whether anyone present was involved. Arresting them all was merely a precaution.

Therefore, he maintained a stern expression and offered an explanation.

”We have taken over the search operation. As for why we are arresting you, it is because we need to question you about some matters.

Rest assured, we will not wrongly accuse any good person, nor will we let go of any bad person.”

After speaking, he gave a look.

The team members understood his signal and continued their previous actions, taking away those who were to be detained.

After they left, only the people brought by the Ji Family, the Guard Team members, and Li Yue remained at the scene.

After they were taken away, Ji Tao’s father stepped forward.

”Hello, Captain Cai, did they conspire to kidnap my son?”

Captain Cai recognized Ji Tao’s father and knew that his son was among the victims, so he did not keep a stern face.

”Currently, it is just a guess. After all, the park was guarded in several places at the time. To get out, one would need to climb over the wall, but people frequently use the road outside. As far as I know, no one blocked the roads, so we speculate that there was collusion internally.”

Just as Captain Cai finished speaking, his pocket vibrated. He turned sideways and pulled out the communicator from his pocket.

After seeing the message on it, his heart stirred...

Ten minutes later.

”Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, hello. This person beside me is Card Maker Bai Xiaobai. He is also Xu Le’s older brother,” Mr. Number Three introduced the two parties.

Ji Tao’s parents exchanged glances, seeing surprise in each other’s eyes, but there was also a hint of joy in their hearts.

Although they were Ji Family members, they belonged to the third branch of the Ji Family, meaning they didn’t have complete authority.

If the other party proposed overly demanding conditions, they might not be able to fulfill them, as they would have to obey the Ji Family head if he forbade it.

”Hello, Mr. Bai.”

”Hello. The situation is this: we need...”

Xu Bai then informed them about the need to install surveillance in the Ji Family residence.

Initially, Xu Bai had indeed considered doing it directly, since people were still unaware of surveillance technology.

However, a goose leaves a trace when it flies by.

If surveillance became widespread later, and the Ji Family suddenly remembered this incident, it would cause trouble.

Mrs. Ji did not hesitate at all.

”Mr. Bai, I agree. You can install it directly.”

After hearing Mrs. Ji’s agreement, Xu Bai looked toward Mr. Ji to confirm his opinion.

Mr. Ji said: ”I also agree. We do not live in the old family estate; we live separately and can make our own decisions. Feel free to install the surveillance. We have only one request: that our child returns safely.”

”Alright.”

After gaining their consent, Xu Bai immediately handed the video receiver cards to the Ji Family bodyguard, instructing them where to install it and asking them to install it discreetly later.

Upon receiving the cards, the bodyguard immediately took people and left.

They had heard Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji’s words and understood their intentions, so they did not hesitate.

After giving out the instructions, Xu Bai led their group to another room.

Inside the room were many television sets.

Many people were seated in front of the televisions, watching the dramas that already had visuals while writing something down in notebooks.
