Chapter 83: Xia Zhu is missing
Xia Zhu and Bai Yinting argued for a long time about whether to go to the appointment, but in the end there was no result.
But the agreed time was this afternoon, and they couldn't drag it out all the time, and they couldn't let the other party feel the dangerous message.
Otherwise, it is very likely that you will lose your previous efforts again, and it feels bad to be at the mercy of others, since you may face danger at any time, it is better to take the initiative.
It was almost noon, Bai Yinting made a choice between the two worlds, Xia Zhu could go alone, but he had to bring some protective measures and trackers.
He felt that it was not safe to just be able to track the mobile phone, and he had to install one on Xia Zhu's body.
Not only that, just in case, Bai Yinting still got in touch with the police, and the two sides unified the layout, just waiting for the afternoon to see if the woman would take the initiative to enter the urn.
Xia Zhu set off an hour in advance, the road was very smooth, and after arriving at the agreed restaurant, there were still twenty minutes before the agreed time.
This restaurant is not big, not very conspicuous, and even a little remote, without navigation, Xia Zhu may not be able to find this place.
The restaurant was quiet, the light was still a little dim, and the owner sat there alone, with his feet crossed on the bar and playing with his phone.
Seeing Xia Zhu come in, he hurriedly took his feet down, and then greeted him very warmly, "How many people, what to eat?"
"Two, I still have a friend who hasn't arrived, can I wait for her to come?" Xia Zhu carefully observed the structure of the restaurant.
"Absolutely. The boss turned on the light, and then let Xia Zhu sit casually.
"Boss, how long has your restaurant been open?" Xia Zhu felt that opening such an incompatible restaurant in this place was a money-losing business.
"It's been two years. The boss replied.
"How's the business?" Xia Zhu asked again.
"You can see it, too, and the sound is very average. The boss replied.
"Is it your own house?" If it was a rented shop, I guess it wouldn't be able to last a long time.
"yes, I don't know what else I can do, so I'll deal with it, anyway, I'm alone inside and out, and there are some regulars who take care of business. "The boss is also more talkative.
Xia Zhu nodded, could it be that woman is a regular visitor here?
Thinking about it, she took out her phone, and then showed the photo of the woman to the boss, "Boss, have you seen this woman?"
"I'll see. The restaurant owner took one look, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Xia Zhu nodded, I don't know, it's so strange, how did that woman find this restaurant.
The time soon came to the appointed time, Xia Zhu was a little anxious, because the woman did not appear, and the owner of the restaurant brought Xia Zhu a cup of tea.
The taste of this cup of tea is really fragrant, it gives people a refreshing feeling, and it smells really good.
"Drink some tea and wait slowly. Why don't you give your friend a call?" The restaurant owner didn't have any other guests, so it was very laid-back.
Xia Zhu was indeed thirsty, and he couldn't resist the temptation of this cup of tea, so he took a sip.
"What kind of tea is this, this strong fragrance is really good. Xia Zhu was full of praise.
The restaurant owner sat at the bar and looked at her with a smile, "If you like it, drink more, our tea is free." ”
Xia Zhu drank tea and sent a message to the woman, but she didn't reply.
Before I knew it, five minutes had passed, and Xia Zhu suddenly began to feel dizzy and became more and more uncomfortable.
She stroked her forehead with one hand, and suddenly realized something, she seemed to have been tricked.
"Boss, you?" Xia Zhu's eyes began to appear ghostly, dangling.
"My tea is not bad, is it?" the man laughed demonically.
Xia Zhu wanted to stand up, but he fell to the ground all of a sudden.
The police, Bai Yinting, and Bai Yinting were all in ambush outside the restaurant, and they were always staring at Xia Zhu's tracker.
She had been in the restaurant all along, but the woman had been delayed.
The glass door of the restaurant is a bit peculiar, and it is not particularly clear when viewed from the outside, so no one else knows what is going on inside.
Another few minutes passed, Bai Yinting was a little anxious, and after discussion, they decided to let the two of them go in to investigate the situation.
At this time, a female policeman and a male policeman pretended to be a couple and walked into the restaurant, and there was only the owner in the restaurant, and Xia Zhu's shadow was not visible at all.
"Yo, you two, you want to eat something. The owner of the restaurant got up and greeted him warmly.
"Boss, there are no guests. The policewoman said seemingly unintentionally.
"It's not time to eat, but there are still guests in the private room, do you two sit here, or do you sit in the private room inside?" asked the restaurant owner.
"Can we see what the private room looks like?" asked the policewoman again.
"Of course. When the restaurant owner passed by the first private room with the door closed, he deliberately said, "There are already people in this room, let's see how this one is, it's not big, but two people are just right." ”
"I don't think it's necessary, we just eat two bowls of noodles casually, just take them away. The policeman said.
"Pack it and take it away? That's fine. The policewoman then said, "Then trouble the boss to cook us two servings of noodles, and we will take them home." ”
"Okay, sit down for a while, and you'll be fine right away. The boss said and went to the kitchen.
At this time, a woman appeared in everyone's sight, she stepped on high heels, walked in rhythmically, wearing sunglasses, and dressed very fashionably.
Both the policewoman and the policeman raised their vigilance, and then watched as she walked directly into another room next to her, closing the door directly.
The two of them looked at each other, could she be the one they were waiting for?
After getting in touch with people outside, they decided to close the net.
Because Bai Yinting called Xia Zhu, she never answered, so he was a little worried, but when he sent a message to Xia Zhu, she replied, with two very simple words: coming.
Bai Yinting thought that the meaning of these two words should mean that the woman was coming, so it was inconvenient for her to answer the phone.
And they did see such a woman walking in, judging from her figure and back, it looked like the target they were looking for, so everyone agreed that it was her.
Before the noodles were ready, everyone rushed in, startling the owner of the restaurant, and the two plainclothes policemen kicked in the door.
What they didn't expect was that they just saw the woman changing her clothes just now, and when she saw someone suddenly breaking in, she was so frightened that she hugged her clothes and screamed.
To everyone's surprise, this room was really just a room for people, not a private room for eating.
What surprised everyone even more was that the restaurant owner said just now that the private room where Xia Zhu was located was also empty.
What's going on here?
