Why Not Wait for the Fish to Take the Bait?

"So, if we retrieve this thing now, the matter will be resolved, right? They already know that I have military family members around, and they must know that I've handed over this item. There's no way it's still in my possession," Su Yijia pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, showing no curiosity.

She didn't ask why those people didn't just run away directly and had to come to Hu City, as she could already guess it involved classified information. Even if she asked, Xia Weiguo wouldn't be able to divulge such details. Not running meant there was no way out through the usual channels, as everything was locked down tight. The professor they kidnapped was probably a Hu City local, which was why they decided to conduct this operation secretly. Taking advantage of the fact that no one expected them to take such a risk, they abducted the professor first. However, Su Yijia couldn't figure out why they had involved her at lunchtime.

Maybe they were setting up a trap within a trap?
