"Adjutant Huang, you are wrong. If the person threatening her is a Chinese, Yuan Ziyuan may not take it seriously, but if it is a Japanese, she has to take it seriously. Everyone knows that the Japanese are crazy!" Lu Ming said with an angry face.
Lu Ming was not being sarcastic. He really felt that the Japanese were unreasonable and lacked humanity. They did not take anyone's life seriously, even the lives of their own citizens.
"What happened next? This is the only time you met Ziyuan?" Lu Ming then asked.
"No, I met Miss Yuan again in Tai'an later, but we didn't dare to chase her too close because we were afraid that the Japanese would jump over the wall. She didn't look nervous at all. I guess she also knew that we were following us, and intentionally or unintentionally approached her.
We waved." Huang Yanning raised his neck and recalled.
"Then she mysteriously disappeared again? She appeared in Lushan, Jiangxi more than ten days later, right?" Lu Ming added without waiting for him to continue.
"Yes, how did you know? I had already arrived in Peiping." Huang Yanning said.
"It's very simple. I guessed it based on her letter. Wasn't the second letter sent from Lushan?" Lu Ming reasoned using his detective logic.
"Well, a week later there was news from Jiangxi, saying that someone saw Miss Yuan in Lushan. She was still with the four Japanese, but there was another woman. I don't know if she was a Chinese woman or a Japanese woman."
"A woman, isn't she a very beautiful woman?" Lu Ming asked immediately.
His mind instantly thought of the woman who had assassinated him. This was something he could never forget for the rest of his life, especially her slim and toned back.
"Very beautiful?" Huang Yanning looked at Lu Ming doubtfully and didn't understand why he asked.
Does it matter whether the woman is beautiful or not? There is just something wrong with the brain of a kid from a rich family. Huang Yanning was speechless.
He thought for a moment and said: "She's not very beautiful, she's just an average person. Compared with Miss Yuan, she's in the sky and on the earth."
Lu Ming understood immediately upon hearing this that she was not the woman he had seen.
Women can change their appearance through makeup. The ugly ones always hope to be beautiful, but the beautiful ones will never change to ugly. The appearance of the woman he mentioned should be on the same level as Yuan Ziyuan.
"The Japanese must have something to hide." Lu Ming shook his head.
"Yes, I thought of this later. So I stopped chasing you. I started looking for you when I came back, and it was very hard to find you." Huang Yanning said pretending.
"It's easy for you to find me. I remember you went to see President Sheng when you came back?" Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Yes, I went to see Chairman Sheng after I came back and made a detailed report in person." Huang Yanning said with an embarrassed smile.
"If you really want to find me, don't you just ask Chairman Sheng to find out?" Lu Ming said feeling amused.
"That's the truth, but I forgot it at the time." Huang Yanning scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I thought you were a famous person in Shanghai, and I could find out by just asking anyone on the street. But many people I asked said they knew you, but didn't know where you lived." Huang Yanning continued awkwardly, thinking about this.
How can people not forgive others?
"Do you think I live in Lingering Garden? Any rickshaw driver would know that." Lu Ming also glared at him angrily.
"I'm looking for you because Miss Yuan told me that only you can save her, but she didn't tell me to look for President Sheng. I don't understand what's going on. Ordinarily President Sheng is more capable of rescuing her?"
"Huang Yanning wondered.
Lu Ming didn't know why Yuan Ziyuan said this. Compared with him, Sheng Youde's ability was similar to that of Tathagata Buddha and Sun Wukong.
Zi Yuan should have asked Huang Yanning to notify Sheng Youde to rescue him instead of looking for him.
Maybe the situation was critical at that time, and Yuan Ziyuan just blurted it out. After all, in her heart, Lu Ming might be closer. However, Ziyuan should have thought deeply about such an important matter.
Maybe, Sheng Youde's goal was too big, and Yuan Ziyuan was worried about attracting some people's attention? Did she hope that Lu Ming would act quietly?
Lu Ming's mind was spinning rapidly, analyzing any subtle information left by Yuan Ziyuan.
"Based on what you observed, can I understand that although Yuan Ziyuan is now controlled by the Japanese, she is with them voluntarily and is currently under house arrest?" Lu Ming tried to understand this situation.
asked.
"Well, more or less. According to the people we contacted in Tai'an, the four Japanese respect Miss Yuan very much. On the surface, it doesn't look like the relationship between the kidnapper and the kidnapped. The news from Lushan
Likewise, those four Japanese look like Miss Yuan's bodyguards, and that woman looks like Miss Yuan's personal maid. However, with Miss Yuan's identity and background..." Huang Yanning couldn't go on, and he couldn't understand the relationship between them.
of this relationship.
"It seems that Ziyuan has taken the initiative. I don't know what method she used to temporarily gain the upper hand, so that the four kidnappers had to temporarily make concessions to her." Lu Ming said slowly and thoughtfully.
"Impossible. If Miss Yuan really took the initiative and simply escaped by herself, why would she have to live in a tiger's den with these four bandits?" Huang Yanning shouted.
"What I mean by taking the initiative is just the easing of their relationship. The possible exchange condition is that Ziyuan cannot escape, and in exchange the four Japanese will treat each other with courtesy. I don't know if I understand it correctly." Lu.
Ming smiled bitterly.
"Well, this is somewhat similar. The news from Lushan said that there was nothing unusual about them at all. They were just like ordinary tourists, traveling around and tasting delicious food from various places. I told them that Miss Yuan was kidnapped. They
I don’t even believe it.” Huang Yanning felt helpless.
"If that's the case, why did the Japanese kidnap Yuan Ziyuan? What was their purpose? There must be a secret hidden in it." Lu Ming refused to let go of this question.
"If you want a ransom, should you ask for it? I accompanied Ms. Yuan around under disguised house arrest. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that there was such a ridiculous thing in the world." Huang Yanning put his hand on his forehead and said
An expression of "I'm convinced too".
Lu Ming laughed. He didn't know how Ziyuan did it, but Ziyuan was full of wit and the arsenal in her mind always had weapons that others could not expect. Now the four Japanese must have tasted the pain.
This does not mean that Ziyuan does not need to be rescued, but that the rescue must be stepped up. Yuan Ziyuan is obviously using the sightseeing tour to delay time and travel, waiting for him to come up with a way to rescue.
Lu Ming knew there was a key point here. He couldn't figure out where it was, but there must be one. If he could find it and unlock the code, he might be able to successfully rescue Yuan Ziyuan.
