He Yongjun looked up at the sky and said calmly, “Don’t worry. It’s going to be totally dark soon. Then it’ll be hard for them to look for us if we hide away, due to low visibility.”

“But I heard that the police dogs are really good,” said Shen Jiani worriedly as she thought about some military programs that she had seen on TV.

“Relax. This whole area smells like gunpowder, and the police dogs’ noses won’t work well here.”

He Yongjun didn’t seem to care about the armed police. He was used to hiding everywhere these past few years and had built strong survival skills which made it hard for ordinary people to catch him.

It looked like the sun was going to be fully set soon and it would be pitch black in the mountains, which would indeed make finding people even harder.

Besides, He Yongjun was good at traversing mountain roads, so he was going to take Shen Jiani to continue fleeing under the cover of darkness.

Chances were that by sunrise, both would already be on another mountain.

After they dumped all their electronic devices, there would be no way to locate them.

He Yongjun was indeed a sly old fox. But he didn’t expect that Huo Mian had already thought of ways to deal with him.

– Inside the military car –

Qin Chu held Huo Mian by the arm and walked her into the back seat of the car.

Then he took off his coat and put it on her legs.

“It’s really cold at night on the mountain. Don’t catch a cold,” said Qin Chu.

Huo Mian nodded.

“The thing that you just made, if I’m not wrong, there’s ammonium nitrate in there right?”

“Yes.” Huo Mian nodded with a smile. He was her husband after all, and he knew her really well.

“But if it’s only ammonium nitrate, it shouldn’t be that color. So I think it also contains one of the special medicines that only your hospital imports, WT2,” Qin Chu guessed.

“Absolutely right. Then why don’t you take a guess of what the poisonous gas is?”

“This is easy. It has both ethyl ether and anesthesia ingredients, right? One is to knock a human unconscious and the other one is to paralyze.”

“Tsk… How dull. You got everything right, it’s not fun,” said Huo Mian while pouting.

“But speaking of all that, when did you bring this stuff with you? How come I didn’t notice?”

Qin Chu really didn’t notice how Huo Mian managed to bring so many synthetic chemical powders with her.

“Before when I received the information that they were hiding on a mountain, I was already thinking that since He Yongjun is a sly old fox, it won’t be easy to catch him. So, I took some with me just in case it would come in handy.”

“Alright. My wife is indeed still so smart. Who said that once a woman is pregnant, she’ll be dumb for three years? I don’t think you’re dumb at all, you even got smarter!” Qin Chu gave her a huge compliment.

“Pudding and Little Bean are already three and a half, so I’m already over the dumb period after pregnancy. But…” Thinking of her second baby that she was carrying right now, Huo Mian was almost going to say she was going to enter another period of pregnancy stupor but she stopped herself.

“But what?” seeing Huo Mian only say half of her sentence, Qin Chu waited eagerly.

“No, it’s nothing. Honey, I’m a little thirsty. Can you please give me a cup of warm water?” Huo Mian changed the topic.

Qin Chu immediately turned around to pour some water.

Huo Mian felt lucky now that no matter how big the challenge was, Qin Chu would be next to her and taking care of her all the time.

Now her one and only hope were that the kids could come back home safe and sound.

Huo Mian put her hand on her belly and whispered, “Good baby, let’s pray your sisters to come home safely, shall we?”

– At a mountain village in Qinghe Mountain –

As the kidnappers were in the middle of drinking, the leader suddenly said, “Go, bring out those two kids. Time for us to ask them for their billionaire daddy’s phone number.”
