Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

Around nine o'clock in the evening, Huamei Pastry Shop was about to close after finishing its business for the day.

Four guys were cleaning the store when Higgins, the owner and pastry chef, walked out of the store.

Higgins worked as a pastry chef in Paris, France for more than 20 years. He heard from a friend who worked in the Shanghai French Concession Municipal Council that Shanghai was a new big city in the Far East with many foreigners.

Moreover, there are no decent Western-style pastry shops in Shanghai. If he goes to Shanghai and opens an authentic Western-style pastry shop, he will definitely make a lot of money.

Higgins was excited and immediately went to Shanghai to open this gorgeous pastry shop.

After the opening, not only foreigners from Shanghai flocked to his store, but local dignitaries and wealthy people were also regular customers of his store.

The cakes in his shop are very expensive, the most expensive in Shanghai, but for those rich people, it is nothing.

So the profits were very lucrative, and after ten years, Higgins made a fortune.

After he became rich, he would still come to the store almost every day. In order to ensure the quality, he would personally make some special cakes customized for dignitaries.

He is the most famous pastry chef in Shanghai. Naturally, the prices of pastries made by him increase several times, but they are still in short supply.

He was amazed at the purchasing power of the rich, and was more determined to build his pastry shop to serve the rich. Although the vast majority of people in Shanghai are poor, the poor have no purchasing power.

These poor people struggle to make ends meet every day, and many of them can't even afford to eat. It is not uncommon to see people dying of hunger and cold on the streets. How could these people afford the pastries in his store?

Today was another booming day as usual, and he walked out of the pastry shop in a happy mood.

Then he got into a black high-end Renault sedan parked on the street, started the car, and drove towards his home on Xiafei Road.

He lived at No. 26 Xiafei Road, a very beautiful white villa located in the core area of ​​Shanghai's French Concession.

Xiafei Road is where Shanghai's dignitaries and wealthy people gather, and it is surrounded by many luxurious residences and luxury villas.

Higgins was driving while humming a song. The street lights were dim and there were not many pedestrians.

He had just driven to a street corner when suddenly a black car rushed out from the side and blocked his way.

Higgins slammed on the brakes, but before he could react, a man in black rushed over from both sides of the street.

Two men in black quickly opened the door and got into his car. One of them pointed a pistol at the back of his head and said viciously:

"Don't move, or I'll kill you."

Higgins had lived in Shanghai for ten years and could speak poor Chinese, so he naturally understood the death threat.

The sudden fright made him tremble so much that he dared not move.

He quickly calmed down, thinking that he was robbed. After all, Shanghai is a paradise for adventurers, the public security is not very good, and robberies happen from time to time.

But the robbery happened to him, and he is French.

He said coldly:

“I have some money on me, you can take it, please don’t hurt me.

I am French."

He thought that if he told them that he was French, these bandits would definitely be cautious.

After all, the French Concession was under the jurisdiction of the French, and the Chinese here were under French rule, so the French were naturally superior.

After they knew he was French, they should have understood the consequences of robbing a Frenchman and did not dare to go too far. They even let him go out of fear.

But Higgins was wrong, the man in black remained unmoved by his words.

Without saying a word, they dragged Higgins to the back seat, tied him up in a flash, and not only gagged him with a towel, but also blindfolded him with a black cloth.

This made Higgins panic. He knew in his heart that this was not a simple robbery but a premeditated kidnapping.

He was not wrong this time. This was indeed a kidnapping carefully planned by Wu Sibao, and the two men in black were Wu Sibao's men.

Wu Sibao personally participated in the kidnapping operation and was sitting in the black car that blocked Higgins' car.

He looked at Higgins's high-end Renault sedan and knew that the car was very expensive. If it was resold to Nanjing or Hangzhou, it could be sold for at least 5000 yuan. He had been secretly stealing cars and reselling them, which was a piece of cake for him.

He planned to keep the 5000 dollars from the sale of the car for himself and not let Li Qunshi know.

Of course, he didn't dare to have any thoughts about the ransom of 50 gold bars, and he had to hand it all over to Li Qunshi.

Li Qunshi should be able to give him some, but it is hard to say how much.

At this time, Higgins' car flashed its lights twice, and Wu Sibao knew that his men had dealt with Higgins.

The driver turned the car around and drove forward, with the Renault following closely behind him.

The two cars drove out of the French Concession, entered the Chinese area, and stopped in front of a separate courtyard near the suburbs.

This place is relatively remote, and it is a good place for Tibetans to hide their cars. Someone opened the gate, and two cars drove into the yard, and the gate was immediately closed.

Higgins was taken out of the car. He was at a loss at this time. He didn't know where he was being taken or what his fate would be. His legs were weak and he couldn't stand up. He was carried into a room in the house and then thrown to the ground.

Not long after, two more cars drove into the yard and four gagged and blindfolded people were taken out of the cars.

These four people are exactly the waiters of Huamei Pastry Shop.

Shortly after Higgins left the Huamei Pastry Shop, the guys had finished cleaning and were about to close the shop when two black cars drove up from not far away and stopped at the door of the shop.

Several men in black rushed out of the car, broke into the store, and pointed guns at the four guys.

The guys didn't know what was going on and were so scared that they dared not resist under the black muzzle of a gun.

He was tied up, gagged and blindfolded by several men in black, thrown into a car, and then sped away.

After the four guys were taken off the car, they were locked up in separate rooms.

……

morning.

No. 26 Xiafei Road.

Higgins' wife, Aurelie, was on pins and needles. Her husband had not returned home all night and had not called home. This had never happened before.

She also called Huamei Bakery, but no one answered the phone, so she sent a servant to check.

The servant came back and said that the bakery door was open, Mr. Higgins was not in the shop, and none of the clerks who lived in the shop were seen, as they were all missing.

Aurelie felt something was wrong, and her husband must have been in trouble. She was panic-stricken and immediately called Jacques Dumont, Higgins' friend who worked at the French Concession Municipal Council.
