In the early morning of August 22, members of the task force came to Jingzhong City one after another.

At this moment, Lao Shao was on the phone alone in the office, while Wang Chao and Jiang He were standing outside the office waiting, but they were not bored, because the two of them saw a very interesting thing. In the deepest part of the corridor, a fat man of about two hundred pounds was facing a pot of bonsai in the corridor.

This corridor has a single opening, and the deep part is a closed utility room, which means that Fatty is not waiting for someone deep in the corridor, which makes Jiang He and Wang Chao very strange. The two saw the sweat on the fat man's neck constantly, and he wiped the sweat on his neck with his hands from time to time, looking like he was very nervous.

Fatty is muttering to the potted plant at the moment: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, you can do it, don't look into other people's eyes when you talk, take a deep breath, you can do it. Xiaolu, you cheer me up, You say whether I can adapt to the environment here, is it the default that you don't say anything..."

And this fat man is Guan Deng. After receiving the call from Mr. Shao, Guan Deng immediately bought a plane ticket to Jingzhong City. Of course, Guan Deng ordered all this online, and he didn’t even need to tell anyone during the period. In a word. After getting off the plane, Kwanden was afraid to talk to the taxi driver, so he took the bus for hours to get here.

Wang Chao said to Jiang He in a voice that could only be heard by two people, "Look at that person, it's so strange. He was standing there when we came. It must have been more than half an hour. What is this person doing?"

Jiang He told Wang Chao the answer almost instantly: "I have a 90% probability that he is also a member of our task force. This is the Jingzhong City Public Security Bureau, we are standing at the door of the conference room, this No one can come in anywhere, otherwise the police will definitely stop it. No one stopped us when we came, it must be Lao Shao and the others who greeted us.”

"And there is only Elder Shao in the conference room. He is standing there just like us, waiting for Elder Shao, so he is also a member of the task force." Jiang He looked at Guan Deng: "But I don't understand, he Talking to a plant is why."

Wang Chao looked at Guan Deng, then looked back at Jiang He, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The members of the task force are really strange, they don't look like criminal police at all.

In the conference room, Mr. Shao was talking with Mr. Li at the moment. Mr. Shao was almost certain that this matter was related to the hypnotist Wei Demian. Ever since Mr. Shao found the black business card in his pocket, Mr. Shao knew that his old rival Wei Demian was active again, and this was also the direct reason why Mr. Shao would set up a task force. If Mr. Wei was left alone, Mr. Shao would be afraid Bring out another person like Wu Zui.

The reason why Mr. Shao secretly made this call was because Mr. Shao was not sure that there might not be people with weak minds in the task force who were bewitched by Wei Demian lock. Just like my master Shi Huacheng once said, everyone has weaknesses, as long as they find weaknesses, then this person can be easily used by me.

Among the members of the task force, except for Wang Chao, the rest actually have one thing in common, and it is precisely because of this commonality that Shao Laohui is determined to use these people. These people are people with many weaknesses. A perfect person can be fatal as long as he has one weakness, but a person who is full of weaknesses can be unpredictable for a while.

After hanging up the phone, Shao Lao walked out of the conference room.

He saw Jiang He, Wang Chao, and Guan Deng, but he didn't see Xu Yiman. Shao Lao sighed softly, and he had notified Xu Yiman, but Xu Yiman had never replied. Wang Chao and Jiang He, both of whom belonged to the same city, had already arrived. Calculate the time. If Xu Yiman was to come, he should be there now.

However, from the current point of view, this case does not seem to need a forensic doctor to follow. Besides, Jingzhong City Municipal Bureau also has a forensic doctor. Although it may not have the ability of Xu Yiman, it is enough.

Mr. Shao said slowly: "it will be dawn soon, I have no way to give you time to rest. This case is very simple, it is a kidnapping case. The wife of a 60-year-old Ding Derun was kidnapped. Now, the kidnappers asked Ding Derun to pay 400,000 yuan to redeem the people."

Wang Chao and Jiang He both looked at Lao Shao, and Guan Deng walked over slowly, but he still lowered his head and didn't dare to look up.

Old Shao knew Guan Deng's character, and without looking at him, he stretched out two fingers: "The kidnapper asks to hand over the money with one hand and the other hand with the person today, and you will follow me to see this Ding Derun later."

"Kidnapping case?" Wang Chao was a little puzzled: "Didn't our task force specialize in solving those big cases?"

Shao Lao nodded: "It is indeed like this, but when Ding Derun called the police, he claimed that the kidnappers repeatedly ordered him to call the police, and asked our special team to come, otherwise the ticket would be torn up. The kidnappers are provoking the police, so we must do it in the shortest possible time. time to catch the kidnappers."

After speaking, Mr. Shao took a few people out, and he said as he walked: "General kidnappers will only kidnap their children, not the wife of a 60-year-old man. Relatively speaking, children's bargaining chips are far more than His wife is here, and the reason why the kidnappers do this shows that he is very clear that Ding Derun will definitely save his wife."

"There is one more point." Elder Shao withdrew a finger: "The kidnappers explicitly asked Ding Derun to use 400,000 to redeem people, and Ding Derun's bank card happened to have 400,000. This is unusual. The number of the kidnappers is very accurate. I am now It is suspected that an acquaintance committed the crime. I have asked the Jingzhong City Criminal Police Team to investigate Ding Derun’s relatives. Wang Chao, you have been a criminal police officer for more than ten years. See Jingzhong City Criminal Police Captain."

Wang Chao nodded: "Okay."

During the conversation, several people have come to the hall.

"As soon as the sun rises, Ding Derun will go to the bank to withdraw money, and now we only have a few hours to deploy. Guan Deng, I will tell you Ding Derun's phone number in a while, and monitor this number immediately. Once someone calls, I will track it down immediately. The source of the signal, try to find out the location of the kidnappers behind the scenes."

Guan Deng did not speak, but Shao Lao knew that Guan Deng would definitely do as he ordered.

After that, Mr. Shao looked at Jiang He again: "Jiang He, you are the one who is very observant in the task force. The kidnapper will definitely call and ask for money today. I have to say that the kidnapper's control over money is very good, but I also I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or not, 400,000 RMB is about ten pounds, a bag is enough to hold it, and it’s very convenient to escape. The three of us will go to send the money, you know.”

Hearing Lao Shao's words, Jiang He nodded seriously.

"Okay, then everything is in order."

When Shao Lao spoke, Captain Ma of Jingzhong City Criminal Police Team walked to Shao Lao's side: "Last night around ten o'clock, I went to check on Ding Derun's relatives according to your instructions, and now I have figured it all out. We After contacting the police stations all over the country, Ding Derun's relatives in Jingzhong City have found them, and nothing suspicious has been found."

"Well, this is not beyond my expectations." Shao Lao said to Captain Ma: "But let the police at the police station pay more attention. Although the possibility is relatively low, it is not impossible."

"I know." Captain Ma nodded: "Those relatives from other places are still under investigation, and it's not clear at this time, but I haven't heard from the rest of the relatives that any relatives are coming to Jingzhong City. ."

Shao Lao stroked his beard: "If it is really here to kidnap people, then I will definitely not tell others. But it is very likely that acquaintances have revealed their words, otherwise even the people behind these kidnappers, I am afraid they will not. So well understood."

"The person behind?" Jiang He heard the meaning outside the painting in Lao Shao's words.

Shao Lao shook his head: "I'll talk about this in detail later, and you can do as I ordered. Captain Ma, take us to Ding Derun now. How is Ding Derun's situation at the moment?"

Captain Ma shrugged, took the car keys and walked out: "Since last night, this Ding Derun has made no less than dozens of calls to us. During the phone calls, Ding Derun's fearful feelings are beyond words, and he is completely in a mess now. , otherwise we wouldn't be strongly urged to accompany him."

Captain Ma opened the car door: "But things are strange. You said that kidnappers all over the world don't want the police to intervene, but this kidnapper instead asked the police to accompany the victim. This is really a strange thing in the world."

Mr. Shao got into the car: "So, the kidnappers are extremely arrogant, this is provoking the police, if the kidnappers can't be caught as soon as possible, the police's honor will be laughed at, look, this matter is definitely not just about Kidnapping is as simple as that."

After all, the three of them stopped talking, and Jiang He was thinking in his heart.

The car started, but a person appeared in front of the car.

Jiang He took a closer look and realized that it was Xu Yiman.

Without seeing Xu Yiman in front of the meeting room, Jiang He had a 70% probability that Xu Yiman would opt out, but he did not expect Xu Yiman to arrive at this time.

Mr. Shao was also a little surprised. He said, "Now the time is urgent, and there is nothing to say. Get in the car. Since you are back, it means that you are ready to follow the task force to continue the case."

Xu Yiman did not hesitate and got into the car directly.

In the past few days, Xu Yiman has been thinking. What Shao Lao said is very good, some things really cannot be avoided blindly. There is a feeling that is deeply rooted in his heart. Xu Yiman knows that he may encounter more such things in the future. He may still be afraid of trembling, or he may still be unable to move, but at least Xu Yiman wants to change. this status quo.

Some things will be remembered in the heart for a lifetime, the more you escape, the more you can't escape.
