Lu Wuchuan and Yan Yishuai were exchanging opinions with each other. The sound of teacups falling came from the direction of the living room. They hurried over and found that it was Zhang Li and He Xuefeng, mother and son.
Zhang Li is in her thirties. She is not very beautiful, but she is wearing a fashionable, foggy blue cashmere coat and white high boots. Her long maroon hair is tied behind her head, revealing a pair of exquisite diamond earrings on her ears.
She stood at the door, holding a bag with a dazzling logo in one hand and putting her other hand on her son's shoulder.
He Xuefeng clutched the lapel of her clothes tightly, with his head half buried in her arms, and quietly looked at the people in the living room.
A broken teacup fell at He Jingshan's feet, while Liu Xiujie stared at him with an angry look on her face.
He Chang looked calm and comforted in a low voice: "Mom, it's time now. It's better to talk to my brother. We'll talk about other things later."
She called the nanny to clean up the mess, and tugged on He Jingshan's sleeve: "Let them go to the guest room and don't cause trouble here."
He Jingshan took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and patted his daughter on the shoulder: "Changchang, please take them up."
He Chang pursed his lips helplessly and shook his head towards Zhang Li: "Come with me."
Zhang Li took her son's hand and walked inside. When she passed by He Jingshan, she asked softly: "Jingshan, what happened?"
"Take the child up first and talk later." He Jingshan's voice was obviously softer than before, which made Liu Xiujie's face even more ugly.
She leaned her head back on the sofa, closed her eyes slightly, and tried to calm down her mood. When the footsteps faded away, she opened her eyes and asked, "Officer Lu, have you found anything?"
"Preliminary judgment shows that He Tong disappeared in the early hours of yesterday morning. After leaving the printing factory, the specific location is still being investigated," Lu Wuchuan said.
"Do you know who the kidnapper is?"
"It's not clear yet."
Liu Xiujie closed her eyes again and asked no more questions.
He Jingshan sat on the other side of the sofa with a sad face. He was now worried not only about the safety of his son He Tong, but also about the future of the company.
The nanny quickly cleaned up the broken pieces of the teacup and carefully exited. The living room rarely became quiet.
The quiet atmosphere did not last long before it was broken by a burst of cheerful music.
The urgent voice startled He Jingshan and Liu Xiujie. Both of them trembled, looked at each other for two seconds, and then turned to Lu Dongming at the same time.
"Don't be nervous!" Lu Dongming raised his right hand with his palm down in a gesture of comfort, "No matter what conditions he proposes, agree to it, and then bargain. Ask to talk to your son, and try to hold him off. I'll count to three, and you answer the phone.
"
He Jingshan nodded heavily, took a deep breath and waited for instructions.
Lu Dongming's fingers increased to three, and he pressed the buttons on the device while answering.
Everyone else held their breath, all eyes focused together.
He Jingshan tried his best to keep his voice calm: "Hello, hello!"
The man's voice on the other end of the phone came through the public broadcaster: "Hello, is this He Jingshan?"
"I am, who are you?"
"I am the Household Registration Section of the Liancheng City Public Security Bureau. Come to the bureau quickly with your ID card. There is a very urgent matter that needs to be dealt with."
The man's words made everyone present stunned. He Jingshan looked confused and subconsciously asked: "What's going on?"
"A bank card under your name had several suspicious deposits last month, involving money laundering activities." The sound of flipping paper came over the phone, "Oh, there were three transactions in total, with a total amount of more than five million."
He Jingshan frowned: "Impossible, I have never participated in such a thing."
"Huh? Isn't this card yours?"
The man reported the name of the bank where the account was opened and was talking about the card number. Lu Dongming suddenly cut off the phone call.
"Officer Lu, what are you..." He Jingshan was confused.
"Liar, ignore him." Lu Dongming took off the headset and put it on the coffee table.
He Chang slowly came down the stairs and asked, "Aren't you police? Why don't you catch a liar when you encounter one?"
Lu Dongming glanced at her sideways: "We are all going to catch the liar, why don't you save your brother?"
"That's not possible!" He Chang puffed his lips, "But... if we don't arrest them, someone will be deceived."
"Officer Lu, a child is not sensible. You are not as knowledgeable as she is." Liu Xiujie was afraid that they would ignore her son, so she quickly explained, patting the seat next to her and telling her daughter to sit down.
Although the girl spoke a little too hastily, she actually did not mean any harm. Lu Dongming did not ridicule her anymore, but pointed to the device on the coffee table: "This thing can track the location. I have sent it back to the bureau and someone will deal with it.
of."
He Chang nodded, seemingly satisfied with this answer.
The previously tense nerves were disturbed by the liar, and she relaxed a little. The nanny came in and whispered something in Liu Xiujie's ear, and she forced an apologetic smile: "Look at my memory, it's already been this long, and I can't
I didn't think about eating. Aunt Liu has already prepared it. Let the police officers have a bite."
We went to finish our meal in batches. It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon. During this period, the landline phone rang once. He Jingshan's phone rang three times. None of the calls were from the kidnappers.
Until 2:10, the landline phone rang again, and He Jingshan, who had been tossing it several times, weakly picked up the receiver.
"He Jingshan?"
The mechanical male voice immediately aroused everyone's nerves, and Liu Xiujie stood up immediately.
Lu Wuchuan raised his hand to signal her not to be nervous, and gave He Jingshan a comforting look.
He Jingshan swallowed his saliva and said, "It's me, who are you?"
"Be ready with 20 million in cash before eight o'clock tonight."
"What? Twenty million? Where do you want me to get so much money!"
"That's your business, I don't care. The 20 million yuan will be divided into ten parts, and I will notify you of the location at eight o'clock in the evening. If you can't get it together... just wait until your son's body is collected."
"Hey, I really can't get that much..."
Before He Jingshan could say the word "money", the other party had already hung up the phone.
Lu Dongming operated on the device and slowly took off the headphones: "The virtual number is too short and cannot be traced."
"Didn't I ask you to agree first and hold him back?" Liu Xiujie roared with red eyes, "Are you deliberately not wanting my son to come back?"
He Jingshan wiped the sweat from his forehead: "He Tong is also my son, why don't I want him to come back? But it's 20 million, how can I agree?"
"Okay! Stop arguing!" He Chang stopped between the two of them, "Hurry up and collect the money, try to think of ways to collect as much as you can!"
"It's easy to say, where can I get it together!" He Jingshan suddenly turned to Lu Wuchuan, "Officer Lu, you should think of a way!"
Lu Wuchuan raised his slightly lowered eyes and said, "Follow his request. Only after we have determined the location of him and the hostages can we launch the rescue and arrest."
