The more you go to the depths of the mountains and forests, the more strange the postures of the trees become. In mid-air, the huge trees hanged by countless aerial roots are like corrupt giants, standing slumped to block the sun; under the ground, criss-crossing ground roots hovering and knotted, covered with greasy moss and lichen, forcing everyone Take a step and be careful to hold it firmly, as it will slip if you are not paying attention.
“His.”
As soon as the sound of gasp fell behind him, Yan Xiu stopped immediately: “What’s the matter?”
Jiang stopped rubbing his palms hard, only to see a long ant crawling on the trunk that he had just supported.
“I told you to support me and be bitten.” Yan Xi firmly grasped Jiang Ting’s arm, forcing him to tilt his weight on him, and at the same time he whispered: “I told you not to follow you. You still don’t listen. , What should I do if I slip and fall later, I have to hurry you to the hospital-very squeamish.”
Jiang Ting frowned and said, “It’s not that much, and it’s not a little girl.”
“Oh, the little girl is not as delicate and expensive as you!”
“Why do you talk so much?”
“What I said is the truth summed up by countless lessons of blood and tears…”
The two of them were fighting like this, and walked forward with one foot shallow and one foot shallow. Not far away, the detective led a police dog to clear the way in the dense forest, and intermittent cicadas rang above his head.
“Vice Detachment!” The policeman trot forward from the front and said loudly: “We have reached the limit that can be tracked by police dogs, and we can’t be sure if we go further!”
Yan Xiu stood still, placed the Jiang team, who was delicate and expensive, couldn’t fall or touch, and had to be careful not to be bullied by ants, on the flat and soft fallen leaves, and then looked around.
This is true. There is no shop in front of the village. The surrounding area is full of towering trees and vegetation. The ordinary mobile phone signal is gone. Since the police dog could no longer track down, Shen Xiaoqi and Bu Wei presumably did not stay here, and they did not leave a particularly strong smell among the trees or on the rocks.
The police dog rushed over and was slapped by Yan Xiu. He took out a beef cube from his pocket and peeled it to feed it. However, the obediently hairy police dog twisted his head and refused to eat it.
“Oh, well done.” Yan Xiu casually boasted, and threw the beef cubes to the trainer.
The trainer smiled and then fed, the police dog really ate it.
“Why did the two little kids go to this ghost place,” Yan Xiu narrowed his eyes behind sunglasses, and said thoughtfully: “This is not the way down the mountain.”
“It’s not so much, it’s almost a thousand miles away from the only way down the mountain!” Ma Xiang turned out from behind the big tree, holding the forest map: “–Look, they have been going to the forest. Going deeper, if you count the normal pace of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, it’s so dark when you walk here, aren’t they afraid?”
“Are there any villages and rivers in front of me?”
“There is a ghost, I believe there is a wolf or a fox.”
The trainer half hugged the police dog who couldn’t hold his tail wagging. He squatted on the ground and looked at the police. He could see that he was trying his best to help: “Is it completely lost, or has been hijacked?”
Yan Xi didn’t say a word, and walked around the neighborhood for a while before stopping.
“—It’s possible. What do you think, Jinghua?”
Jiang Ting was holding his arms, avoiding the ants everywhere, and said, “Yes,” he said, “It’s really hard to guess at the moment. There are two possibilities.”
Ma Xiang couldn’t help asking: “What do you say, police…Counselor Lu?”
Yan Xi glared at him immediately, and there was a lot of warning, but I was the only one who yelled at you. He glared at the innocent Ma Xiang and shrank his head.
“If they were kidnapped, when did the kidnappers start looking at them? Why did they go deep in the woods instead of the more maneuverable road? It doesn’t make sense. If you’re lost, go this way. Very straight, there are not too many signs of going in circles, and it is not in line with the normal trajectory of getting lost in the wild.” Jiang Ting shot the ants crawling on him, and said, “But the above two possibilities cannot be ruled out. The kidnappers may deliberately It’s hard to tell if you want to take two kids off the beaten track.”
Ma Xiang puzzled: “But why did the kidnappers do that?”
Jiang Ting asked instead: “Is Bu Wei’s uncle rich?”
“Uh…Looking at the information, I do gallery intermediary business in other places all the year round…”
“So rich that you can spend two hundred million?”
“That’s definitely not wow,” Ma Xiang frowned and elbows Yan Xiu: “The only one who can pay out two hundred million is here.”
Yan Xiu sensitively: “Go! What are you doing?”
Jiang Ting turned a blind eye to their small actions and said, “That’s right. If the kidnappers bid 10 million or even 20 million, it can be said to be for money, and the sky-high ransom does not leave any room for bargaining. It can show that his purpose is the two children themselves from the very beginning, which also represents the worst kind of predictions of all events.”
Although he had a hunch in his heart, Ma Xiang couldn’t help being excited when he said these two words: “——Tear the ticket?”
Jiang Ting said: “Execution.”
Behind them, more policemen who followed one after another began to spread around, searching, trying to find traces such as footprints. Yan Xiu watched the backs of dark blue uniforms submerged in the bushes, and suddenly murmured and repeated these two words: “Execution.”
He turned his head and looked directly at Jiang Ting from behind his sunglasses: “Execution is an act of punishing the convicted crime, that is, you have to commit the crime before you can be punished—what is the Shen family’s crime? ?”
“Hey!” Ma Xiang raised his hand first: “White-tailed sea eagle?”
Can’t blame this group of criminal police for always mentioning white-tailed sea eagles. It is true that the blood of this first-class national protected animal is too stimulating to them, and people always think about it when they think about it.
“How do you keep mentioning…” Yan Xiu frowned, and before he could finish speaking, Jiang Ting interrupted him with almost no hesitation: “No, it has nothing to do with Shen Xiaoqi’s parents.”
“Huh?”
“If I were a kidnapper and wanted to punish the Shen family for a certain behavior, what would I do?” Jiang Ting paused in Ma Xiang’s confused eyes, “I will abduct the child first and ask for A number that can make the Shen family go bankrupt but not give up directly, for example, 8 million. After the Shen family smashed the pot and sold the iron to make up 8 million, I cut off Shen Xiaoqi’s finger and sent it, and then added it to 12 million. ——Shen Xiaoqi, grandparents, grandparents, seven aunts and eight aunts… After everyone has gone bankrupt and collected 12 million, I will cut off one of his ears, and an extra one thousand five.”
“The so-called boiled frogs in warm water is to let the frogs watch me add firewood to the fire. Do you still want the children to live? You keep increasing if you want to live. Eight hundred, twelve thousand, One thousand five, two thousand… The Shen family was gradually forced to the point of incomparable madness, despair and grief, but they never know whether they will pick up the child next time after the ransom is collected, or continue to receive something from the child. Parts.”
Yan Xiu said: “Psychologically late.”
“Yes,” Jiang Ting agreed, “If the kidnappers used psychological intimidation, then we can be pretty sure that the target of the execution is an adult, but now it’s obviously a different situation.”
“…” Ma Xiang held back for a long time, and finally squeezed out: “Consultant Lu, you are terrible…”
Jiang Tingshi smiled: “In fact, there will be no such cases. But at least you can be sure that the kidnapper is not me.”
“Then suppose that the kidnappers are punished by Shen Xiaoqi himself, including Bu Wei.” Yan Xiu’s thinking changed from a different perspective: “Two students who just finished the entrance examination, Shen Xiaoqi just got the ID card, and Bu Wei was 16 years old. It’s not there yet, social participation is very limited, and what crimes worthy of execution may be committed?”
This question is a good idea.
A few people did not speak. The police dog trainer blinked his eyes and tentatively said: “Did you just say that the little girl died of her parents and was adopted by her uncle… Could it be that the little girl’s social relationship is more complicated? About?”
Yan Xi and Jiang Ting looked at each other, both of them hesitated from the bottom of each other’s eyes.
There are too few clues, and time is pressing, even if Holmes is reborn, it will be hard to fail.
“Although Buwei was described by her classmates as a well-behaved girl, this possibility cannot be ruled out. After all, her appearance belongs to the rarer category in the crowd.” Jiang Ting stomped the ant down and raised her head. Q: “Has Buwei’s guardian not contacted yet?”
Yan Xi spread both hands, turning around and shouting: “Lao Gao–!”
Gao Panqing was on the command vehicle from a distance: “Hey——!”
“It’s not easy for you criminal investigators,” the police dog trainer looked at them admiringly: “Look at this brain cost, it’s like the strongest brain in participating every day.”
Jiang Ting didn’t care, “I am not a criminal investigator, I am only responsible for gathering bourgeois wool.”
Trainer: “Huh?”
“Brother Yan——!” Gao Panqing poked his head out of the command car door: “The city bureau found Bu Wei’s guardian and is using a police car to send her uncle to the farmhouse! And Director Huang searched Shen Xiaoqi’s computer The record has been sent!”
At least the work on the technical investigation side has made a little progress, and everyone’s spirits are refreshed.
“Well, our profession is not search and rescue. We are also adding chaos here. Please return to the car.” Yan Xiu said, “Look at your consultant Lu, almost drowned by ants.”
Jiang Ting was unhappy: “It’s all the red bean paste buns you bought in the morning…”
“Just a few words,” Yan Xi sneered while forcibly hooking his shoulders: “Eating sweets all day is to attract bees and butterflies. What does it have to do with me.”
At 2:30 in the afternoon, the command vehicle stumbled in the woods, like a drunk brawny man, knocking everyone out into misery.
“All the records of mobile communication, WeChat payment, social software chat, web browser search, etc. are all here. Originally this file is several hundred megabytes, fortunately Director Huang, who rescued the distress, gave us the key points.”
Gao Panqing opened the compressed file package and handed the notebook to Yan Xiu.
Sure enough, the screen is full of densely packed data, all the secrets in Shen Xiaoqi’s computer are spread out in the sun, as if a corpse has been carefully dissected, whether it is the heart, liver, lungs and kidneys, or hidden parts that are difficult to open. On the dissecting stage, it is for people to watch.
Ma Xiang poked his head from the back seat, followed Yan Xiu to read a few pages, and sighed: “This is the biggest worry in my heart since I became a policeman.”
The driver of the municipal bureau drove ahead, Yan Xiu was engrossed in browsing the search engine records. Jiang Ting was weak and prone to motion sickness. He was sitting on the co-pilot with his head up and slumbering. Only Gao Panqing answered Ma Xiang in the whole car: “Oh, do you still have hidden worries?”
“Lao Gao, you look down on people, don’t I look like a slender boy?”
Gao Panqing said: “Okay, what are you worried about, young man? My buddy will help you solve it.”
“It’s not necessary to solve it. You promise to do me this favor.” Ma Xiang coughed and said with a strong voice: “If we do what we do, good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, life and death are unpredictable. I sacrificed heroically to fight crime and protect the people. Please hold your hands high and don’t touch my frugal alien computer, especially my DEFGH disk and several terabytes of each. Class resources…”
“…” Gao Panqing squinted at him from the corner of his eyes for a long while: “Then it burned for you?”
Ma Xiang covered his chest with his hands and tears in his eyes. After thinking about it for a long time, he solemnly said: “Before burning, you can give a copy to the next door, Qin. After all, everyone is an old teammate who has been in the dark for many years and does not leave a spiritual legacy for this society. I can’t make it through my heart.”
Gao Panqing couldn’t help nodding his head with an “Oh Huo” expression on his face, turned his head for a while, and muttered: “…play a love game, you guys still play black.”
“Lao Gao, this search history won’t be missed because of turning on privacy mode or instant clearing, right?” Yan Xiuyang asked suddenly.
“Director Huang said no, what’s the matter?”
“That’s kind of weird.”
Ma Xiang and Gao Panqing approached curiously, and saw Yan Xiu pointing to a line in the densely packed record: “On May 9th, Shen Xiaoqi used Tianzongshan Raiders as a keyword to search for the first time. Prior to this, there were no search records on tourism, not even keywords such as’summer resort’,’surrounding scenic spots in Jianning’,’cheap free travel’, etc. He did not follow anything like Jianning scenery on Weibo. , Jianning Toutiao, Meili Jianning and other accounts, web Weibo search records can not be restored, but browsing records did not find any Tianzongshan related; it feels like this child suddenly appeared’I’m going to Tianzongshan’ This idea, other options have never existed, and there is no hesitation at all.”
“Hmm…” Ma Xiang, a teenager with internet addiction, said very empirically: “Nowadays kids basically use mobile phones.”
Gao Panqing also agreed: “What if you read the recommendation from WeChat Moments?”
Yan Xi shook his head. Before he had time to say anything, Jiang stopped in the front row and said, “Jianning is a famous tourist city with rich surrounding attractions. Even if you read the recommendations, you won’t be planning your itinerary. He doesn’t consider any other options at all, unless he has a certain obsession with Tianzongshan.”
Yan Xi lifted Erlang’s legs, winked at Ma Xiang Gao Panqing, and whispered: “Learn from others.”
Ma Xiang replied with the same low volume: “Know that you are a pair of good friends, don’t show it.”
Gao Panqing is more upright: “obsessive? What might be the case? Consultant Lu?”
Jiang Ting kept his eyes closed slightly, leaned back and nodded, resting his head on the back of the chair motionless.
“Counselor Lu?”
“…”
Everyone’s eyes burned, and at the end of the line of sight, consultant Lu’s weak voice came slowly: “There are many situations. Maybe there are some sayings about Tianzong Mountain among the students, maybe important relatives and friends have been there, or… …”
With a sudden cry, he opened the window of the car.
Everyone: “???”
Yan Xi was suspicious. Just about to step forward to check, he suddenly saw Jiang Ting sticking his head out of the window like lightning, and then: “Oh–“
Everyone: “…”
Consultant Lu, who has always been elegant and calm, was finally struck down by motion sickness.
·
The farmhouse compound, the breakfast hall was transformed into a temporary mobile office.
“I really don’t know anything. Are you sure my niece was kidnapped?”
A fat man in a suit and leather shoes was sitting in front of two police officers, his face covered in sweat from the heat, he held a handkerchief and kept wiping it like a cultural man, but he wiped it more and more:
“No, I haven’t received a blackmail message at all—Yes, I have not seen her since the day before yesterday, but I usually call this kid at most every week, and I’m not her relative. Dad! Why did you say that the kidnappers cost two million?! I really dare to ask for two million, I don’t have two million! No!-Tear ticket? No, you don’t understand the police officer. I’m not her legal guardian, and I usually pay for the tuition. I’m already very conscientious…”
Squeak–
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and the two policemen stood up immediately, and saw Ma Xiang entered the house with a pile of noises: “Where is the water? Where is the water? Get the ice water! Hurry! Hurry!”
Ma Xiang cleared the way, looking forward to Qing Qing following the fan wind, Yan Xi personally helped the pale-faced consultant Lu, the posture looked like a few people picked up a wild panda on the way back, and the stars stopped Jiang in the moonlight. Helped to the chair and sat down.
“Why is there not enough ice?” Ma Xiang took the water that the police hurriedly handed over, turned around and handed it to Yan Xi. Saw Ertou, the well-known second-generation Yan deputy detachment of the public security system, hurriedly rolled their sleeves to the left and right, and personally took the water and waited for the river to stop drinking.
The police ask carefully: “What’s the matter?”
“Motion sickness.” Ma Xiang covered half of his mouth and explained in a low voice: “The personal consultant of Yan’s team, IQ is in charge of this case. The analysis of the case is half of the case has been misfired. So far I have not been able to finish the second half of the sentence.”
“Oh…” The policeman had an unclear expression on his face.
Jiang Ting waved his hand weakly, motioning to stop drinking, rubbing his eyebrows tiredly.
Yan Xiu screwed the cap of the mineral water bottle, and signaled Ma Xiang to lift the vertical electric fan to Jiang Ting and blow hard, until the consultant Lu could be full of blood to resurrect, and he would take the kidnappers from the boundless in an instant. Caught out in the forest. Then he finally got up and asked the police: “How is it?”
“Deputy Yan!” The police slapped a salute and pointed to the fat man in a straight suit: “This is the uncle of the kidnapped girl Buwei, Wang Xingye. The city bureau sent a car just now.”
In other words, apart from the crying parents of the Shen family, the case finally came to a key family member.
Yan Xi made a polite sentence. Just as he stretched out his hand to shake it, suddenly he saw that the fat man named Wang Xingye had a wrong expression.
——His hand froze in the air, his gaze crossed Yan Xiu, and he stared at Jiang Ting not far away; for a moment, his eyes seemed to have seen a ghost alive.
Caught off guard, Yan Xiu’s heart sank slightly, and then he increased his strength and held Wang Xingye’s hand:
“Mr. Wang?”
“Huh…Huh? Police officer?”
Yan Xi stared at him calmly, and asked softly for a long while: “What are you looking at?”
