Dual Transmigration: American Prison, Surviving to a Fantasy Development Stage
Chapter 720: Solved in Minutes
Sarah's first reaction after hearing this was to frown, and then she said seriously:
"Should I go ask someone from the casino association?"
The members of the Casino Association own casinos all over the world.
Although their influence is not in the Philippines, the association has connections and networks all over the world.
Finding a middleman to say a few words should be achievable.
It's not a large sum of money; there's no need to resort to violence.
Lin Feng waved his hand, his tone crisp and decisive: "No need, it's too slow."
By the time your casino association gets through all the layers of intermediaries to find connections in the Philippines, it'll be too late. I'll make a phone call.
As he spoke, Lin Feng dialed Anna's number directly.
The phone was answered in less than three rings, and Anna's voice, slightly surprised yet also somewhat pleased, came from the other end.
After all, Lin Feng had never called her on his own initiative before; she was always the one who would eagerly come to find him.
"Lin? You actually called me on your own initiative? The sun must have risen in the west."
What's up? Did you miss me after not seeing me for a few days?
Or are you trying to 'lift the curse' on me again?
Anna's tone was a mix of teasing and anticipation, and the faint sound of keyboard typing could be heard in the background.
She appears to be working on some documents in her office.
"I have something important to discuss with you."
Does the CIA have any permanent staff in the Philippines?
"Ideally, it should be the kind that can mobilize the local military and police," Lin Feng asked bluntly.
"Of course."
CIA field agents are present in every country around the world with a U.S. embassy; in the Philippines, there are not only intelligence stations...
The garrison also has several bases, with the Marine Corps on standby at all times.
What's wrong? Did you run into trouble in the Philippines?
The keyboard clicks on the other end of the phone also stopped.
"It wasn't me, it was one of my childhood friends."
I've been kidnapped in the Philippines through a honey trap, and I'm too lazy to do anything about it. Can you help me sort this out?
After Lin Feng finished explaining the details, Anna's relaxed laughter came from the other end of the phone.
That laughter carried a sense of helplessness at being underutilized and a nonchalant arrogance:
"That's all?"
I thought something serious had happened.
They're just a few petty thugs. In a place like the Philippines, even a high-ranking government official can be dealt with with a single phone call.
Those monkeys were quite obedient.
They wouldn't dare refuse to do such a small thing.
"How long will it take to get it done?" Lin Feng asked.
I could hear the crisp sound of fingers tapping on a keyboard from Anna's end, probably retrieving some information.
"Your person will be rescued in twenty minutes."
"Hmm," Lin Feng responded, somewhat satisfied with the efficiency.
"Lin, after I've taken care of this for you, how are you going to thank me?"
Anna's voice regained its usual charm, with a hint of coquetry in its tone.
"Didn't we just give you a bottle of corpse-dissolving potion? Isn't that enough?"
"That bottle of corpse-dissolving water was a business matter, this is a personal matter. Business and personal matters should be handled separately."
"As for the specific payment, I'll discuss it with you when I come to see you next time." Anna chuckled softly and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng put his phone back in his pocket and said casually to Sarah, "It's done."
"Just let me know in advance when you plan to perform a miracle at your church so I can schedule it."
Sarah smiled and said, "It's okay, no rush, it'll take a few more days."
Lin Feng nodded. "Okay, not only will there be miracles, but I'll also bring a few state legislators to join the church."
"Bring in as many as you can. With the endorsement of politicians, your Black Lotus Cult's reputation will be even stronger."
Sarah's eyes lit up, and she excitedly took Lin Feng's arm: "That's great! I knew you were the most reliable, darling!"
After leaving the church, the two drove back to the villa.
As soon as I arrived at the villa, Anna sent me a message.
"I just checked, and your childhood friend's last credit card usage location was in Tete, Rizal Province."
That area is a hotspot for kidnapping gangs that specifically target Chinese people.
I contacted the intelligence station in the Philippines directly and asked them to send special forces to handle the situation.
From the moment the order is given to the completion of the operation, your people will be rescued in ten minutes.
"Received safely"
Meanwhile, in Taitai City, Rizal Province, Philippines.
This is a villa area located on the edge of the city.
From the outside, it looks no different from any other high-end community.
But those in the know are aware that this villa area has long been controlled by a kidnapping and murder gang that specifically targets Chinese businessmen and tourists.
Behind every seemingly glamorous villa may lie several victims awaiting ransom payments from their families.
The screams and pleas for mercy of the bound individuals echoed year-round in the basement and soundproof room.
In a small room on the second floor of one of the villas,
Zhao Gang was bound hand and foot to an iron bed frame.
His hands were tied behind his back to the iron pipe at the head of the bed with rough hemp rope, and his whole body was fixed in a spread-eagle position, unable to even turn over.
A large bruise covered his cheek, and a trace of dried blood remained at the corner of his mouth, left from when he was "taught a lesson" by the kidnappers last night.
His clothes were stripped off, leaving him only in his underwear. His body was covered in bruises of varying depths and several shocking electric shock burns.
Those two guards were bored, so they "played around" with the stun gun on him.
With each electric shock, he would convulse and scream in agony, while the two guards laughed heartily.
When will the money arrive?
One of the kidnappers asked in Mandarin,
Clearly, the kidnapper had also fled from China after committing a crime there.
He talked while fiddling with the stun gun in his hand, occasionally pressing the switch.
The gun barrel emitted a crackling, electric arc, a sound that was particularly jarring in the small room.
The kidnapper was wearing a military green vest, revealing two muscular arms covered in tattoos, and a thick fake gold chain around his neck.
He was chewing betel nut.
Zhao Gang hurriedly gave a halting reply.
"Soon! Soon! It'll arrive today! I've already spoken to my friend; he's extremely wealthy."
Two hundred thousand is just pocket money to him; he'll transfer the money this afternoon!
The two kidnappers exchanged a glance, and the one chewing betel nut chuckled twice.
He revealed a set of rotten teeth stained red with betel nut, and patted Zhao Gang's cheek with a force that was neither too light nor too heavy, but was full of humiliation:
"It would be best if it were true."
If the money hasn't arrived by the afternoon, let's try something different tonight.
Last time, some kid didn't pay, so we cut off his fingers one by one.
Guess how many bars he held before he started crying and calling for his mother?
Just then, a faint buzzing sound came from outside the window.
One of the kidnappers glanced out the window instinctively and saw a small, black drone hovering near the window.
A small camera on the underside of the fuselage is transmitting live video feeds of everything in the room.
His pupils contracted sharply, before he could even utter a warning.
"Thump!"
A dull, loud crash came from downstairs—the sound of a battering ram smashing open the iron gate.
Immediately afterwards, a dense and orderly sound of footsteps surged into every corner of the villa like a tide.
Tactical commands were issued in a mix of English and Tagalog.
"Go! Go! Go!"
"First floor cleared out"
"Second floor, right side"
