Physician's Odyssey Chapter 613 - Here to help

Chen Guang instantly panicked when he knew that his daughter was kidnapped. At the same time, he tightly balled his fists since he knew the cruelty of the other party.
"What do you guys want?" Chen Guang roared.
"Firstly, delete all the evidence you have along with clarifying the matter on the newspaper and your own social media. Secondly, you have to provide me with details of the person who gave you the information. Thirdly, resign and change your career. You are not allowed to be a reporter anymore." The woman coldly stated her terms.
"Despicable!"
Veins started to bulge on Chen Guang's forehead.
"It looks like you've still no idea what kind of person you have offended." The woman sighed with regret before she continued, "You have an hour. Otherwise, I'll send you a gift. You have such a beautiful daughter, and I wonder if you can accept her losing a finger, an ear, or her nose!"
"You people are the scum of society!" Chen Guang painfully cursed.
"Well, I have to say that I admire your courage to curse me despite being in a disadvantageous position."
All of a sudden, the phone became quiet before a yell suddenly howled. Chen Guang knew that his daughter was being abused, and he felt as if his heart had been stabbed, listening to the cry.
"Don't hurt my daughter!" Chen Guang collapsed.
"Don't worry, I only drew a small cut on her thigh. I'll stop the bleeding for her later. Then again, if you don't make the right choice, then it won't be as simple as a cut." The woman said as she hung up the call.
Not long after, he received a message with a photo attached. His daughter's school uniform was drenched in blood with a horrifying cut on her thigh. The scene was horrific to watch, which Chen Guang started to uncontrollably tremble.
Painfully hugging his head, Chen Guang never expected that the other party would be so brutal to lay a hand on his family, on his daughter, who's only in Junior High School.
At this moment, he fell into a dilemma. He hesitated if he should retain his pride as a reporter or give up his so-called "dreams" to save his daughter.
Instantly, his first reaction was to make a report. He immediately gave a call to his classmate, who works in Nanyue Province's Public Security Bureau and stated his current situation.
"Old Sun, you have to help me! My wife and I can't do without Yuxiu!"
"Judging from what you've described, you're facing an extremely experienced criminal organisation, and it won't be easy to deal with them!" Old Sun bitterly smiled.
"This is the reason why I'm looking for you! You're an official, and you must know many people. You can help me to report this matter to the city and province to save my daughter!" Chen Guang instantly panicked when he heard Old Sun's tone.
"Old Chen, we're not filming an action movie here. Do you really think that dealing with a kidnapping case is easy? Let me tell you the statistics. In real kidnapping cases, there's less than 50% of saving the hostage. Furthermore, you've overestimated my ability. Do you think that I can influence the Province Committee with my voice alone?" Old Sun spoke in a difficult tone.
"That means that I can only go according to their wishes and submit?" Chen Guang coldly replied.
"They're not demanding money from you. They only want you to withdraw your article and make a clarification." Old Sun felt that Chen Guang was a little silly. It's precisely because of the fact that the other party wasn't demanding any money that it made it impossible to dispatch the police in large numbers.
"I'll think of something else!" Chen Guang instantly realised that Old Sun wasn't reliable. Hence, he could only hang up the phone and seek other alternatives.
Hearing the busy tone, Old Sun bitterly smiled. He sighed at Chen Guang for being too stubborn. If that fellow hadn't been exposing all the negative news for so many years, he wouldn't have made so many enemies. If Chen Guang found a proper job, he might be standing at the same height as him by now with Chen Guang's talent, assuming a position in the advertisement system.
At this moment, while Chen Guang had his brows locked, he suddenly received a reply from his wife, "It's not like this is the first time you've forgotten my birthday. We're already an old couple, and there's no need for us to bicker over such a small issue. I have to work overtime in the afternoon, so you fetch Xiuxiu from school as your punishment!"
Judging from his wife's tone, she still seemed to be in the dark about their daughter's kidnap. When he saw this message, his heart blazed with anxiety and slapped himself.
All of a sudden, his doorbell rang. Despite his hesitation, Chen Guang ultimately went over to open the door, to which he saw a robust man.
"What is it?" Chen Guang cautiously said when he saw the scar on Liu Jianwei's face, which made him doubt if this person was in cahoots with the kidnappers.
"I'm here to help you!" Liu Jianwei replied.
"Help me?" Chen Guang instantly hesitated. How did this person know that his daughter was kidnapped?
"The one who sent you the evidence on the Love Representative Charity Funds and several other charity foundations is a friend of mine. But just when we wanted to protect your daughter, Chen Yuxiu, the other party caught us by surprise and was ahead of us. We failed to chase after them, and we lost them after chasing for half an hour. I suspect that they must have contacted you by now, so I'm here to see if we can find their location." Liu Jianwei patiently explained.
Liu Jianwei's tone sounded with guilt and apology. After all, Su Tao had warned him that the other party might take extreme measures, but he still let his guard down.
"How can I believe you?" Chen Guang subconsciously knew that he had fallen into a vortex, becoming a tool for someone.
Pointing at the security door, Liu Jianwei replied, "Open the security door first."
As a reporter for years, Chen Guang met many people in his journey. He could tell that Liu Jianwei wasn't lying to him, which he briefly hesitated before he opened the security door.
Handing over a phone to Chen Guang, Liu Jianwei explained, "My boss wants to chat with you."
When Chen Guang placed the phone by his ear, a young voice resounded, "I'm sorry about this matter, Mr. Chen, to put you in such a situation. But please be reassured that we will rescue your daughter."
"Who are you?" Chen Guang asked, instantly realising that it was this person who dragged him into this mess. In the end, he had become a chess piece of this person.
"My name is Su Tao, and I'm a physician. At the same time, I'm also the President of the Qihuang Charity Funds." Su Tao slowly introduced himself.
Chen Guang wasn't a stranger to Su Tao, since he had researched the latter. This was the youngest physician in China, who appeared in the headlines numerous times; this person was a famous public figure. Instantly, Chen Guang figured it all out. Not long ago, the Qihuang Charity Funds suffered a controversy crisis, and the article he wrote was Su Tao's retaliation to his opponent.
Hence, Chen Guang grew a little furious and snapped, "You used me! You're trying to use the story to divert all the pressure on you, right?!"
Su Tao felt a little guilty by using Chen Guang to deal with those dirty charity foundations. In addition to the press conference yesterday, where Qihuang Charity Funds announced the proposal, the Qihuang Charity Funds would undoubtedly become a clear stream in the industry. Right now, all the pressure was diverted to the Love Representative Charity Funds. Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have kidnapped Chen Guang's daughter as a bargaining chip.
Putting it in a nutshell, the Qihuang Charity Funds had completely flipped the situation around. But in the moral sense, he owed Chen Guang an explanation.
"Calm down! You should know that the information I gave you is all true, and the reason why I handed it to you is because I trusted in your sense of responsibility." Su Tao patiently consoled, "But we've underestimated the brutality of the other party. I promise that I will rescue your daughter, and at the same time, I will remove the masks of those hypocrites."
"Screw your promise!" Chen Guang bitterly smiled, "How can you help me? Even I have no idea where my daughter is right now!"
"They must have called you. Give a call back to them and feign civility to promise their conditions. Try to probe your daughter's location from them, and we will be responsible for saving your daughter." Su Tao consoled Chen Guang to calm the latter down and continued, "You're not a stranger to big scenes, so you should know what to do and how to keep your daughter safe."
However, Chen Guang inwardly howled. How was his daughter safe? His daughter was already hurt!
But he just gave a call to Old Sun from the Public Security Bureau, and he knew that he had no other options right now. Hence, he could only hope that Su Tao can turn things around.
After advising on how to probe the address from the other party, Su Tao ended the call with Chen Guang before calling Xia Yu, "We have to make a trip to Yangcheng City!"
"I'll book the flights immediately!" Xia Yu didn't ask much about Su Tao's instructions.
Nodding his head, Su Tao replied, "The earliest flight available to reach there in the afternoon!"
As Xia Yu acknowledged, he replied, "There are two reporters who did not cooperate with us and reported negative news on the Qihuang Charity Funds."
"Right now, everyone's attention is focused on the Love Representative Charity Funds, and they have no energy to bother about the Qihuang Charity Funds. We just have to keep up in maintaining a good image and put the proposal into circulation." Su Tao faintly said.
Upon hearing those words, Xia Yu wryly smiled. Now, even he couldn't see through Su Tao anymore. Everything had been going according to Su Tao's plan, from the Love Representative Charity Funds' trap, how they got exposed, and the proposal initiated by Qihuang Charity Funds. Everything had gone through meticulous arrangements.
"Since those two fellows aren't afraid of death, then I'll send the information on them to the relevant departments." Xia Yu raised his eyebrows in disdain.
"As for that reporter who withdrew his article, make a complaint against him as well!" Su Tao faintly replied and continued, "One less unscrupulous reporter means another truth for the world."
Upon hearing those words, Xia yu was briefly stunned and sighed. Although that reporter begged him for mercy, he had accepted bribes. To destroy the bridge after achieving his goals, Xia Yu did not feel a burden in his heart for people without any moral bottom line.
There were more unscrupulous reporters in the world, and their harm was no less than unscrupulous doctors. Unscrupulous doctors poisoned the body, while unscrupulous reporters poisoned the soul.
Hence, Xia Yu tapped onto the websites that he had prepared and sent all the relevant documents over.
