Chapter 247 The Second Letter

Opening the envelope and spreading out the letter paper, Zhang Lei saw the same handwriting on it as the first letter:

Prepare 100,000 yuan and wait for notification.

One hundred thousand yuan was definitely a huge sum of money in that era when households with ten thousand yuan were extremely rare. Zhang Lei threw the letter on the table, sighed and said:

"It looks like it was really a kidnapping."

"What should we do?" Tang Hui asked anxiously.

"How do I know? People say that those who call the police will die. If we don't call the police, it seems that we can only prepare money."

"How much money did you bring? If you go back to Zhongjiang to get it, will it be too late?"

Shen Yunguang and Zhang Lei brought a total of 100,000 yuan to Haizhou this time. The money was all packed in a suitcase and Zhang Lei was responsible for keeping it. At that time, in addition to the cost of food and drink, they could buy some if it was convenient. The equipment went back. But after this trip and the consumption in the past few days, it was no longer enough to collect 100,000 yuan. Zhang Lei thought for a while and said:

"We don't have enough money, so how can we ask for money from our family?"

"Why don't you call Factory Director Fan to explain the situation and ask him to send someone to deliver the money?" a subordinate suggested.

Zhang Lei glanced at the subordinate and shook his head and said:

"Director Fan may not believe what we say. Besides, if we report to Director Fan, he will definitely call the police. Then wouldn't Brother Guang's life be in danger?"

"Then, what should we do?"

"The people who did this must be some gangsters from Haizhou. Unfortunately, we are not familiar with the place in Haizhou, so we can't find anyone to find out the information." Zhang Lei said.

"Hey, if you want to find out the news, I have a way." Tang Hui said.

"What can I do? Please tell me quickly." Zhang Lei asked quickly.

"Although I am a Hong Konger, my relatives are all in Haizhou. I remember that there is a cousin in my family who lives in Haizhou. I might be able to find out some information from him."

"That's great, where is your cousin? Let's go find him now."

"Okay, are you coming with me?" Tang Hui asked.

"I'll go with you."

After Zhang Lei arranged his men, he and Tang Hui called a car and went straight to Laoxiguan, the oldest civilian area in Haizhou.

After passing through a series of narrow, dark, and dirty streets, the car stopped at the entrance of an alley. After getting out of the car and walking on the wet stone road, Tang Hui's high heels made a clicking sound, which sounded along the long road. Rumors spread far and wide through the alley.

In front of a small gatehouse, Tang Hui stopped and looked around. After hesitating for a moment, she knocked on the two old wooden boards on the door.

“Tuk tuk tuk”

“Tuk tuk tuk”

“Tuk tuk tuk”

Tang Hui knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response at all. Zhang Lei was not used to this strange and strange environment. After seeing no one answered for a long time, he couldn't help but ask:

"Is there no one inside?"

"I don't know. I haven't been here for a long time. I don't know if he still lives here."

"Then do you know where else to find him besides here?"

"I do not know."

Zhang Lei sighed and felt that there was no other way besides knocking on the door, so he said:

"let me."

When Zhang Lei raised his fist and was about to knock on the door, the two wooden doors suddenly opened quietly, and a black figure stood silently in the darkness. Zhang Lei was so frightened by this turn of events that he jumped back. A big step forward.

Tang Hui stared at the dark shadow inside the door for a few seconds. She seemed to feel a little cold. She hugged herself tightly and asked tentatively:

"Are you Brother Tian?"

The shadow's head turned, and the black eyes slid up and down in the white sockets, looking at Tang Hui carefully. After a moment, the shadow asked:

"Who are you?"

"Ah! It's really your Brother Tian, ​​and I'm Xiaohui." Tang Hui's shoulders shook.

"Xiaohui?"

The shadow's hand reached towards the door, and with a soft popping sound, the light above the gatehouse turned on. The orange light fell from their heads like a waterfall, bathing the three of them in warmth.

Brother Tian has disheveled hair, a pair of big bright eyes, a high nose bridge, a pointed chin, and a worn and loose clothes covering his thin body, giving people a chilling feeling.

"Brother Tian, ​​it's me, I'm Xiaohui." Tang Hui said excitedly after seeing the black shadow clearly.

"Xiaohui, it's really you, Xiaohui." Brother Tian's lips moved a few times, and a little starlight flickered in his eyes. But then he turned his head to Zhang Lei and asked.

"Who are you?"

"Oh, Brother Tian, ​​he is my friend, his name is Zhang Lei." After Tang Hui finished speaking, she turned to Zhang Lei and said:

"This is my cousin Feng Pengtian."

"Hello, Brother Tian!" Zhang Lei took a step forward and reached out his hand.

Feng Pengtian ignored Zhang Lei's actions, but said let's talk about it after entering the house, and then stepped aside to let the two of them enter the door.

There was almost no furniture in the room, the floor paved with blue bricks was pitted, and the walls were covered with spider webs. The three of them could only stand in the room and talk.

"Brother Tian, ​​how did it become like this?" Tang Hui asked, pointing to the room.

"If you had come a month earlier, there wouldn't be a single person here." Feng Pengtian said coldly.

"Where is aunt? Where have aunt and uncle gone?" Tang Hui asked worriedly.

"They all passed away a few years after you left."

"Where are those things? Where are the things at home?"

"I sold them all."

"Oh, you live alone?"

"I just came out of it last month. Who would live with a prisoner in a labor camp?"

"Oh, it turns out that it's been ten years since we last met."

"It seems like you are living a good life there, why would you want to come to this place?"

"Brother Tian, ​​we are in some trouble. I think only you can help with this matter."

"Tell me, have you offended anyone on the road?"

"No, no, we didn't offend them, but they came to our door."

Tang Hui asked Zhang Lei to take out the two letters and hand them to Feng Pengtian, and then told him the whole story in detail. After hearing this, Feng Pengtian pondered for a long time and asked:

"You said that in the karaoke hall that day, Mr. Shen suddenly said that he was very sleepy, and then fell asleep not long after?"

"Yes, that's right."

"He was drugged. If someone hadn't come to meet him outside the door, he might have been kidnapped that night."

"Ah! Drugged?"

"Yes, on that occasion, they usually put medicine in the wine."

"Oh, I remembered that when I was singing on stage that day, a woman came over to toast Mr. Shen."

"Well, it seems that it was at that time that Mr. Shen was drugged."

"Brother, can you find a way to get Mr. Shen back that day?"

"Well, it shouldn't be a big problem. I'll go find someone to inquire tomorrow." Feng Pengtian nodded and said.

"Brother Guang, isn't he in danger?" Zhang Lei asked.

"Probably not. What they want is money, not life. Mr. Shen is fine for the time being."

"Oh, that's troublesome, Brother Tian." Zhang Lei nodded in thanks.

"Okay, where do you live?" Feng Pengtian asked.

“We stayed at Haizhou Hotel.”

"Oh, in that case, do you mind if we open an extra room?"

"I don't mind, I don't mind." Zhang Lei quickly agreed.
