Chapter 135: The Verge

At the entrance of the stage, Xie Madxin was looking at his watch anxiously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info At a normal rate, Nan Zejiao should have come back by now, but seeing that the chorus is about to end, there is still no trace of Nan Zejiao.

The applause of the audience rang out, and Xie Madness sighed helplessly and walked on the stage alone. As soon as the curtain was finished, he hurriedly rushed into the backstage, and asked everyone he met, "Has any of you seen Nan Zejiao?"

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, a bad premonition rose in Xie Madxin's heart: although Nan Zejiao loves to play, she will not be without a sense of responsibility, not to mention, this is the 20th anniversary of the school celebration party after all, and she will not be unable to distinguish priorities. Thinking of this, Xie Yanxin glanced at his watch, gritted his teeth, and quietly sent a message to Wan Guohou.

Wan Guohou quickly glanced at his phone, and then smiled at the restless Nan Zeyu, "Director Nan, do you have a mission today?"

Nan Zeyu barely cheered up, "No, it may be that the stereo here is too noisy." As he spoke, he glanced at his phone again, and his face was too gloomy to hide.

"Why don't we go out and breathe?" Wan Guohou said with a smile, "You can let Crazy Heart show us around the backstage in a moment." ā€

Nan Zeyu thought for a while, "You're right, let's go out for a walk." ā€

Tao Baihe heard the conversation between the two, and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's almost over, can't you wait and leave?"

"Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered, why didn't I see your daughter in the newspaper just now?" Wan Guohou asked lightly.

"Hey, yes, Jiaojiao didn't come to the stage just now. Tao Baihe picked up the handbag, "I'm going to go backstage to have a look, this girl won't be uncomfortable, right?"

"You stay here with Dad. Nan Zeyu dissuaded her, "Dad is alone, and his eyes are inconvenient." ā€

"So, will you help me go see Jiaojiao?"

Tao Baihe's words hit the heart of the Marquis of Wanguo, "I am happy." ā€

When the two walked out of the side door, they happened to meet Yue Shuluo, who had just finished removing her makeup, and she looked at the two of them in surprise, "Master Hou, Director Nan, you are ......?"

"Go see Nan Zejiao. Wan Guohou said succinctly.

"What's wrong with Jiaojiao?" asked Yueshuluo a little nervously, "Wasn't it okay before?"

"In the last show, she didn't come out to report the curtain. Nan Zeyu replied, "Didn't you see her backstage either?"

"I'm in another powder room, she probably went to the bathroom. The restroom is not in the background, on the other side of the hallway. ā€

"Then let's go to the bathroom and have a look, Mr. Yue, I'm sorry for you. Wan Guohou motioned for the moon to lead the way.

To the trio's disappointment, there was no one in the women's restroom.

"Director Nan, call your daughter's mobile phone. Wan Guohou said.

Nan Zeyu complied, but no one answered.

"When performing, I usually don't have my mobile phone with me, so it's possible that Jiaojiao didn't hear it. Yue Shuluo comforted Nan Zeyu, "Jiaojiao has always been very well-behaved and won't run around." ā€

Nan Zeyu frowned, he knew in his heart that things were not good.

"Why don't you do that?" Wan Guohou said, "We are divided into two roads, Chief of the South Hall, you go to another corridor to have a look, and I and Chief Moon will look for it along this corridor." If you still can't find it, we'll contact the radio station. ā€

"I don't need to contact the radio station, I just have a mission today, and I have arranged for plainclothes to be around here. Nan Zeyu finally confided a little bit.

Wan Guohou sneered in his heart, but his face was still calm and light, "That's good, then I and Manager Yue will take the first step." ā€

After separating from Nan Zeyu, Yue Shuluo immediately asked, "Master Hou, is something wrong with Nan Zejiao?"

"It's hard to say, the old beggar might be here. Wan Guohou replied.

"It seems that Nan Zeyu already knows who the opponent is?" Yue Shuluo guessed, "I look at his expression, and I am more angry than worried." ā€

"Then we'll add another fire to him. Wan Guohou blinked mischievously, then took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone, "Are the exits all guarded?"

"Don't worry, Master Hou, I've already transferred all the people who can be called. K1 on the other end of the line said.

After Wan Guohou hung up the phone, the two continued to walk forward. After a while, an audience member came out, and the number of people in the corridor gradually increased.

"There are probably only the last two shows left. Yue Shuluo said, "We have to hurry, the scene will be over in a while, and the scene will be very chaotic." ā€

"Shhhh Wan Guohou suddenly made a silent gesture, and then pointed lightly ahead.

Not far in front of the two men, a musician was struggling to walk, carrying a cello case almost as tall as he was.

Wan Guohou and Yue Shuluo quickly exchanged glances, and Yue Shuluo immediately quickened his pace and walked to the vicinity of the musician. She looked at the musician and asked with a smile, "Are you a member of the band for tonight's performance?"

The musician gave her a wary look and did not speak.

"I came too late, I missed a lot of shows and it was a shame I didn't see the band playing. Yue Shuluo sighed exaggeratedly.

"That's a pity. The musician finally spoke. He has long, wavy hair, and wrinkles on his skin indicate that he is no longer young. He tried not to look at the moon, but the latter noticed his golden eyes anyway.

Yue Shuluo stretched out her right hand behind her back and made a gesture.

"Do you have a cello in this box?" The two of them had already walked out of the hallway, and were about to go downstairs.

"Hmm. "The musician seems reluctant to talk about it.

"I also like classical music, but I don't know much about it. "I would like to ask you if I want to dig a little deeper and buy cello records, is it better to buy David-Garrett or Martha-Argerich?"

The musician took a deep breath, as if he was holding back his anger, "For the uninitiated, you can buy the latter enough." ā€

The two of them walked down the stairs together, and the musician saw the group of plainclothes patrolling downstairs, and after a moment's thought, he turned and walked back.

Yue Shuluo pretended not to see all this, she looked around at the decorations, and said with a little envy, "The decoration here is gorgeous, after all, it is a noble school." As she spoke, she followed the musician up to the third floor.

The musician said coldly: "The third floor is the internal office, what are you doing up there?"

Yue Shuluo smiled, "You probably haven't seen my show, I'm also a performer." ā€

The musician "hummed" through his nostrils and did not answer.

Yue Shuluo looked back, and Wan Guohou, who was not far behind her, had unbuttoned his suit jacket and nodded at her. So, she turned back to the musician and said, "But you just said the wrong thing." ā€

The musician's pupils tightened suddenly, "What do you mean?"

"I mean, I mentioned two names, one is a violinist and the other is a pianist, and they're both well-known in the world, and you don't even know them. Yue Shuluo said unhurriedly, "I think what you have in this box must not be a cello." ā€

As soon as Yue Shuluo's words fell, the musician suddenly pushed her away hard, and then pulled his legs and ran back. As soon as he ran to the top of the stairs, Wan Guohou rushed out and grabbed his arm, and the two immediately struggled on the steps.

Although Wan Guohou was wearing a well-fitting suit, his movement was not restricted, he skillfully moved his steps to avoid the musician's attack, and then "whoosh" stretched out his arms, like two snakes, and went straight to the musician's temple.

The musician was carrying a cello case, and the fight was quite difficult, and he finally dodged the fatal attack of Wan Guohou, but when he twisted his waist to dodge, he ripped off his wig, revealing a short half-white hair.

This person is the old name Hanako.

"I knew it was you. Wan Guohou smiled slightly.

"You've mistaken someone. Hanako, the old name, said. Before he could catch his breath, Wan Guohou attacked again, and he had to dodge Wan Guohou's heavy punch in embarrassment. He really wanted to find a chance to make a move, but Wan Guohou seemed to see through his path and didn't give him any chance at all.

"You're bullying me, old man!" shouted Hanako, who slammed his fist against the wall, panting, "If you hadn't survived me twenty years ago." ā€

"You're already strong, but you're a burden. Wan Guohou was taken by surprise and suddenly hit the face door of the old man called Hanako. And the latter jumped backwards, jumping directly into the corridor on the third floor, and opened a distance from Wan Guohou.

Hanako's body is extremely dexterous, and when she lands on the ground, she is as elegant as an ocelot. But the strap of the cello case slipped off his shoulder the moment he jumped up. The case hit the floor and rolled twice, and the lid popped open, and out of it rolled a little girl who was tied up like a dumpling.

Without waiting for Yue Shuluo to react, the old man Hanako quickly stepped forward, grabbed Nan Zejiao, and then stood against the wall. The latter had apparently just woken up from a coma, with a dazed look on his face. "There is a debtor and a debtor, I have no grievances with you, and you don't pester me!" said Hanako viciously, "If you know each other, get away, lest I really kill this girl." ā€

"You try to kill you!" An angry voice appeared behind Wan Guohou, who was Nan Zeyu, followed by a group of plainclothes.

Hanako was unmoved, he pulled out the towel from Nan Zejiao's mouth, and then showed a pistol like a trick. He put the muzzle of the gun against Nan Zejiao's neck, "You let me try." ā€

Nan Zejiao trembled all over, and finally couldn't help but whimper.

Nan Zeyu was furious, he immediately pulled out his pistol and aimed it at the old Hanako, "What are you coming at me, what is it to catch a child?"

Hanako laughed, "I really want to give this to some people as it is." ā€

"Don't get excited. Wan Guohou slowly walked to the opposite side of the old man Hanako, who immediately retreated, keeping a distance of four or five meters from him.

The old man looked at Wan Guohou, and said without looking back: "The woman in the back, you go over." As he spoke, he nodded his chin in the direction of Wan Guohou.

Yue Shuluo looked worried, she knew that Wan Guohou didn't wear body armor when he came out today, and K1 and the others were nowhere to be seen. She really wanted to help, but Hanako kept holding the gun on Nan Zejiao's neck, and she didn't dare to act rashly. She nervously leaned against the wall on the other side, walked to Wan Guohou's side, and then subconsciously grabbed Wan Guohou's arm.

"I'm sure you won't kidnap a child for no reason, if you have any requests, please say it, as long as we can do it, we will definitely satisfy you, and please release the child. Wan Guohou said slowly, but his eyes were fixed on the muzzle of the gun.

"My request?" said Hanako, with a sarcastic smile on her face, "I want all these bastards in plainclothes to die, can you satisfy them?"

"Don't be angry. Wan Guohou shook his blazer for a long time, and then fastened the buttons, "It's hard for you to run away, don't be delusional about pulling a cushion on your back before you die." ā€

"Really?" Hanako pushed Nan Zejiao forward a little, "What about this cushion?"

"Jiaojiao!" Tao Baihe didn't know when she followed, she saw this kind of scene, she suddenly screamed, and almost immediately fainted.

"You go down!" Nan Zeyu yelled angrily, "Don't make trouble!"

Tao Baihe had never seen her husband so cruel to her, and she looked at the gun in the hand of the old man Hanako in horror, and the golden eyes with ill intentions. She only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and she had to lean her body against the wall to barely support herself.

The old man Huazi didn't seem to be interested in Tao Baihe, he just glanced at it with disdain, and then turned his gaze to Wan Guohou, "I'm curious, why do you want to come to mix? Could it be that this is your child?"

Wan Guohou still had a hint of an intriguing smile on his face, "It's not my child, but I think, it's not your child, why do you have to hold on to her?"

At this moment, there was a loud commotion downstairs, apparently the show was over, and the audience began to walk outside. Nan Zeyu angrily whispered a few words to a plainclothes man, who immediately led a few people to the second floor and blocked the stairs.

The old man Hanako grabbed Nan Zejiao and took a few steps back, "If you want this child to live, don't haunt me." He looked at Wan Guohou, but his words were in the direction of Nan Zeyu, "My patience is very limited, don't waste my time." ā€

"Well, I know what you mean. Wan Guohou gestured to Nan Zeyu with his gaze, "I think Director Nan also understands." He took two steps forward, and Hanako, who had always been called, immediately followed suit. At this moment, Hanako, the old name, was already far away from the stairs, and was almost close to the window on the inside of the hallway.

"In order not to waste time on both of us, I have a proposal. Wan Guohou said, "Exchange me for this child, you just need a hostage anyway." ā€

Hanako sneered, "And then, are you looking for another chance to kill me?" He suddenly removed the muzzle of the gun from Nan Zejiao's neck and aimed it at Wan Guohou. The little thumb of his hand holding the gun was cocked outward, and the posture was quite strange, "You really think I'm so easy to deceive?"

At this time, a plainclothes person whispered a few words to Nan Zeyu, and Nan Zeyu's face immediately became a little lighter: another plainclothes team had already climbed up another staircase, and they hid not far behind Lao Hanako, just waiting for the opportunity to rescue Nan Zejiao.

Wan Guohou said calmly: "If you don't worry, you can tie me up first, and then let go of the child." ā€

"Oh, that sounds so exciting. The old Hanako's face twitched, "It's a pity, I don't believe a word of what you say." ā€

At the moment when the word "letter" was spoken, he pulled the trigger and the gun went off.
