Zhang Wei, who had been guarding the phone, received a call from Xie Houming again, but Xie Houming's voice on the phone was hoarse, and he only asked directly about raising money.

Zhang Wei delayed according to the police's instructions, and intentionally or unintentionally said that there was still cash, otherwise he would send it to him directly...... As a result, a moment later, the voice of a strange man changed to the other end.

For the first time, the kidnappers showed their tracks.

"Mrs. Xie...... You're still smart, what did you find...... It doesn't matter, your old Xie plays mahjong and owes me a lot of money, 6 million, pay back the debt, it is justified, now people are in my hands, whether you are looking for someone you know, or relatives and friends, you will get together this money as soon as possible and put it into my account...... Then keep your old Xie fine. ”

Zhang Wei held the microphone and sobbed uncontrollably.

The other party seemed to be happy with this reaction, "Don't call the police, don't call the police, don't call the police." I said important things three times, once I know that you have called the police, then there is no way, people will definitely not come back, you must be mentally prepared...... We will contact you again. ”

This man spoke in a calm tone, with some local dialects, and was most likely the leader of the kidnapping gang.

At Xie Feibai's house, the police immediately carried out a series of work such as voiceprint comparison.

Perhaps, the only good news that can be confirmed is that Xie Houming's life is not in danger for the time being.

......

......

Still in front of this hardware store, he found that the strange student who came to inquire about the business looked confused, and the boss continued to go to the recycling stall, but he no longer talked to him, he could see that this kid was not planning to order an iron cage at all.

The hardware store was finally closed, and Cheng Ran took steps and walked forward aimlessly.

At this time, the lights were on, and the old-fashioned street lamps illuminated the dirty street trees, and the truncated clues extinguished the brilliance of his breakthrough in this case, and this big case suddenly became far away from him.

The current situation is that he can even know the method of Xie Houming's death, and even know that the murderer will be arrested in Thailand six years later, and know that this gang will kill people in the same way in the future. However, the most critical weapon in his hands has been lost.

It's an extremely uncomfortable feeling. If he hadn't grasped the clues at the beginning, he would have stayed on the sidelines, perhaps he would not have been in the same mood as he is now.

But he was so close to the hope of breaking the game, and then he lost it, and this kind of loss that seemed to see the lush grassland weathered into a desert made him feel a little desolate.

Cheng Ran's footsteps slowed down.

Then he stopped.

His eyes fluttered, and he fell to a shop behind a dense banyan tree flower stand, the shutter door of the shop had been pulled down, but the signboard reads "Lao Zhao Security Bar Doors and Windows".

Then almost the next second, Cheng Ran looked at the southeast corner, which was a small shop outside the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, with the words "Wang Lin Building Materials" written on it.

It's just that these shops, without exception, have closed the roller shutters. It's almost eight o'clock at this time, and this kind of shop usually doesn't open too late.

Cheng Ran suddenly woke up, in his previous life, he did hear that the hardware store with an iron cage was ordered at Sanchakou, and after hearing about it, he subconsciously included the hardware store adjacent to the most central place as a suspected location, this is not only his problem, in the discussion of later generations, the spearhead also pointed to this store, which led to the direct closure of the back of the store, and the façade was knocked down, and then it was demolished, maybe the boss explained it back then, but in the boiling social rumors, what is the use.

So in the confusing time, a lot of truths were buried like this.

Hardware stores don't necessarily have the name of the hardware store labeled, and it's not just hardware stores that order iron cages. Similar to those security fences, doors and windows, building materials stores, and grocery stores, they may take on this kind of work.

There is also this "three-way crossing" road, as the name suggests, is three main roads, divided into East Road, South Road, and North Road.

Each of the three roads is about a kilometer long, which means that all the similar shops on this road can actually be attributed to the category of "hardware stores"!

Cheng Ran's head buzzed, but the thought suddenly came to him, so he sprinted out, ran the three roads back and forth, and wrote down all the suspected shops.

On these three roads, there are a total of seven stores with similar functions!

Although almost all the shops are closed at this point, it is no less than ...... See light at the end of the tunnel.

Cheng Ran went home, feeling that every cell in his entire cerebral cortex was jumping, he used a piece of paper to simply draw the location of the hardware store on these three roads, and at the same time called Yu Xiao and asked him to lend him his bicycle tomorrow.

Yu Xiao on the phone said excitedly, "Are you going to ride a bicycle tomorrow?" Okay...... Then I'll ride my bike, you use my...... When......"

"Nine o'clock, I have something to do first, tomorrow we will go find a nearby hardware store first, I will buy something......" This kind of store usually does not open too early, about nine o'clock.

"Okay!"

......

Cheng Ran tossed and turned all night and stayed awake all night.

This feeling is as if you are pinching tens of millions of lottery tickets and going to redeem them the next day.

The most important thing is that they will not be able to step on the ground, and will there be any deviation from the expected facts? Will it be another oolong, or maybe this incident is simply a thing that did not happen, and why did the gangsters use an iron cage just to facilitate the detention of the victim so that he could be transferred at any time, and this is a plan to fight a protracted war and get a lot of money from the family members of the other side. The other party used to be a snakehead, and his anti-reconnaissance ability was very strong, which is also the reason why they were able to move around without being caught by the police in later generations. But the victim was still killed, probably because of the large-scale operation of the police in the previous life, which made them realize that it was likely to be difficult to carry the victim to move flexibly, so they killed the killer. Then there is no need for an iron cage, and there are many ways to kill the victim directly.

What if in this life, there are these changes? That's really a missed shot.

Do your best.

It was almost difficult to stay up until dawn, Cheng Ran actually went out at eight o'clock, observing on the street, most of these building materials shops were not open, only one was opening the shutter door, Cheng Ran went up and asked, no one has ordered a dog cage recently.

Back in the compound, Yu Xiao had just come out of the house pushing a bicycle and was stunned for a moment, "So early?"

His family lives on the first floor, and two cars have been launched at this time, one mountain bike is his, and the other is a women's vehicle that his mother uses to buy vegetables, and there is a vegetable bar hanging on the front bar, Yu Xiao very generously pushed this women's car to Cheng Ran, "You ride this one!"

Cheng Ran didn't talk nonsense to him politely, he rushed out on a bike, Yu Xiao was in the dark, he didn't know what Cheng Ran was doing, so he had to ride a bicycle to follow.

Cheng Ran rode along the three roads repeatedly, riding a lap first, and there were very few shops open and no clues.

When he reached the third lap, when the time was almost ten o'clock in the morning, Yu Xiao was full of doubts, "You want to buy a dog, ask what dog cage ......?"

As a result, Cheng Ran stopped suddenly, they were already riding on the sidewalk, at this time Cheng Ran jumped out of the car, propped up the tripod, and parked the car aside.

Yu Xiao saw that Cheng Ran seemed to be a different person.

At the entrance of the street in front, next to the shop with the sign "Fangzhou Wujiaohua", there was a van parked, which seemed to be transporting fish, and a strong smell of fishiness could be smelled from a distance.

In the car, you can see from the back that there are two men in the main driver and the co-pilot, and in this shop, two men of 1.7 meters and less than 1.8 meters are carrying an iron cage out of the store.

The iron cage was lifted into the back of the van, which was lifted high. A man with a potholed face and short stubble hair handed two hundred-dollar bills to the boss with his dirty cotton glove hand, and his voice was cold, "Don't look for it." ”

Another man in a jacket with deep nasolabial folds on his face and a faint smile looked at Cheng Ran who came over.

Cheng Ran felt cardiac arrest, as if the blood in his feet had been drained, he walked into the store and said to the boss, "Boss, are there any hexagon screws, the faucet at home is broken......

Then Cheng Ran seemed to be unsteady all of a sudden, and hit the man in the jacket.

"I'm sorry......" Cheng Ran raised his head and just wanted to apologize.

"You don't have eyes. The man in the jacket raised his hand and slapped it!

The hardware store owner took the money and heard that he didn't look for it, and a strong smile was still on the corner of his mouth, and the two people in the van were staring at this sudden scene through the rearview mirror.

Yu Xiao, who stepped on the mountain bike and waited for Cheng Ran with one foot on the ground, was stunned.

Cheng Ran covered his face and withdrew two or three steps away. Half of his face was swollen, and the other party's slap with thick calloused skin was so powerful that Cheng Ran's lips were scratched. looked at the man in the jacket with a look of horror.

The man in the jacket tucked his waist, and was looking at Cheng Ran, who was beaten back, with a cold gaze, "The dog ** baby doesn't walk long...... I'm going to kill you......"

The pothole-faced man next to him put his arms around his shoulders and half-pushed him towards the van, "Let's go, let's go......!

The two of them closed the door and got into the van, and then the van started on fire.

During the whole process, Cheng Ran felt that the people in the car were looking at him through the rearview mirrors of both ears.

The shopkeeper pouted and didn't say anything.

When the van drove out of South Road, Cheng Ran immediately stepped forward, looked at the road, and then turned around and walked to Yu Xiao, who was looking at the car behind.

"Are you alright......"

Cheng Ran put down his hand, although his face was swollen, the panic of the whole person just now had disappeared, and he was so calm that Yu Xiao was afraid. He spread out Yu Xiao's hand and used a pen to write a string of numbers on it.

"Just now I saw something was wrong and tried to hit the guy and he had a gun ...... in his waist"

Yu Xiao looked at Cheng Ran and only felt that a strange world opened up in front of him. Why is he so calm?

"You go and call my cousin immediately, the license plate number of the car is Rong G32155, and I went to the south road, and the direction should be the direction of Sancha Lake, Luhu Lake, and the road of Heilongtan Reservoir...... Well, what road, what road...... Daxing Road direction...... You go and call immediately and ask my cousin to put the search direction over there!"

Cheng Ran kicked up the car.

"You, what are you doing......

"The other party's license plate number cannot be ruled out as a fake deck, and they will change it along the way...... And Daxing Road goes to several lakes separately, there will be forks in the road, I want to see where they go!"

"Cheng Ran, don't you die!" Yu Xiao's whole face turned red.

Cheng Ran pointed to the hot swollen part of his face, "I was slapped in the face...... It's for nothing!"
