Chapter 519: 515: Richelle Dunn at the Predator’s Mouth
With this detailed water route map, Roy Lewis and Mr. Mitchell quickly deployed everything.
They speculated that the kidnappers would likely move at night due to their cautiousness.
Indeed, as Roy Lewis had guessed, the kidnappers didn’t put Richelle Dunn on a car until after 10 p.m., almost 11 p.m.
Perhaps to confuse their pursuers and facilitate the pick-up, there was only one car involved in the kidnapping initially. However, when they left the abandoned warehouse, there were three cars of the same make and color.
Richelle Dunn was not aware of any of this. She was put in a car, and she felt that the woman who had been guarding her was also in the same car.
Before getting into the car, her mouth was sealed again, so she couldn’t obtain any more information.
The people who had been deployed reported the overall situation to Roy Lewis after the cars set off.
Probably because Mr. Mitchell had told them earlier that if anything unexpected happened, they would take action. So after reporting, they confirmed one more thing.
“Their alertness is not high right now. The chances of success are very high if we make a move at this moment.”
Roy Lewis was patient.
“No need, you just follow the original plan. Unless the hostage’s life is threatened, you hold your position.”
If their people took action now, the other party would surely have prepared countermeasures.
If the other party were to change their route unexpectedly, it would be even more disadvantageous to them.
The three cars continued driving forward, and judging by the direction, it seemed they were heading towards the water route exit.
“Master Lewis, I still recommend taking action once they board the boat. It’s the best way to ensure Dr. Dunn’s safety.”
Roy Lewis shook his head, “It’s only temporary safety, and it doesn’t serve much purpose. We can’t keep defending like this all the time. This time, we must try our best to eliminate future troubles.”
Mr. Mitchell felt that this was difficult, “Master Lewis, I understand your intentions, but Dr. Dunn is, after all, an ordinary person. In such a situation, even the slightest mistake could easily lead to unpredictable outcomes.”
Mr. Mitchell was completely unwilling to follow Roy Lewis’s plan.
Although Roy Lewis seemed casual about it now, if something were to actually happen to Richelle Dunn, Mr. Mitchell would certainly lose his position as team leader.
As a frontline officer, Mr. Mitchell felt that the longer the journey and the more time-consuming, the greater the chance of encountering unpredictable factors.
But after he openly and secretly raised the issue several times, Roy Lewis remained determined to execute the original plan, leaving him no choice but to reluctantly issue orders to his subordinates deployed in various locations.
Meanwhile, Richelle Dunn was escorted off the car after a bumpy ride and slowly walked down the steps.
A gust of cold wind hit her, making Richelle Dunn shiver.
The woman behind her, who looked like a nanny assigned to her, draped a thick cloak over her. Then, she helped Richelle onto the boat.
Richelle perceived that she was now on a boat, and from the chilly winds, she concluded that this place was not an ordinary river but somewhere like an underground river.
As before, none of the people accompanying her spoke along the journey.
Richelle felt the boat sailing on the water for about half an hour. After docking, she was escorted back onto a car.
This time, the car drove for about ten to twenty minutes on bumpy roads before entering a highway or main road; she could sense that the car was now going much faster.
Richelle Dunn had lost track of time, but she felt this journey was much longer than the previous ones.
When the car finally stopped, she was taken off the car.
She was then led into an elevator, and finally, into a room..
