Fortunately, there is still a little advantage to staying in a hotel, that is, there are many stores near the hotel, just out of the door of the hotel, I saw a green taxi, but when I saw the taxi, there was a couple not far away to take a taxi. I cursed, rushed forward in three steps and two steps, and shouted at the taxi driver in front of the couple.

"Master...... Go to Hudu Development Zone...... Hurry up, I'm ...... I've had something happen to my loved ones. I almost gasped and shouted to the driver, then put down my suitcase and took out two 100 yuan from my jacket pocket and handed them over.

Seeing that I was out of breath, he directly gave 200 yuan, and the driver also greeted me directly as soon as his eyes moved: "Get in the car!"

Under the stunned gaze of the two couples behind me, I opened the taxi door, picked up my suitcase and sat inside, slamming the door shut.

"Driver, things are really a bit urgent, please hurry up, try to arrive within 20 minutes, I can pay more." "Sitting in the taxi, I kept urging the driver.

"Got it. I know this kind of thing can't be delayed. ”

Listening to my urging, the driver immediately started the car, turned around and galloped towards the Hudu Development Zone.

In the car, I gasped for a long time before I came to my senses a little, took out my phone and looked at the time, damn, it's less than 25 minutes, and I don't know if I can catch up.

In the car, I called Mr. Chen and told him all the addresses. After Mr. Chen learned the news, he said that it was important for me to calm down and rescue people first.

Mr. Chen also told me that the Hudu Development Zone is a bit far away from the police station, and even if JC rushes over immediately, it will take at least half an hour to go, and it is also very remote over there, and the address of the kidnappers is too tricky to find. It not only ensured that I could get there, but also ensured that JC couldn't catch up, which was really leaky.

It was difficult for Mr. Chan to guarantee that he would be able to catch the kidnappers, but he said that he would try to help me do it, but he said that I should delay as long as possible so that the JC could arrive and give him enough time to act.

Of course, Mr. Chen also told me with some heaviness that if I really can't do it, I can only make some sacrifices, so that I have to be mentally prepared.

Listening to Mr. Chen's heavy tone, I already had a vague premonition of the result of failure, but I had already been mentally prepared for such a result.

At least, as long as I can get Jiaqi and the missing Ma Yike back, I won't feel sorry.

When I hung up the phone, it was less than 22 minutes since the kidnappers said yes.

Under my urging and assurance, I could afford the fine for running the red light, the driver also fully demonstrated his driving skills for many years, speeding on the road with full horsepower, all the way to the Hudu Development Zone.

It was definitely the most stressful moment of my life, every minute, every second was an ordeal for me.

Looking out the window at the high-rise storefronts, my heart couldn't calm down at all, and my eyes kept wandering on the street and the mobile phone display outside the window.

One minute......

Two minutes......

Looking at the little growing time on the phone display, I pinched a cold sweat, and my heart rose to my throat.

Will I be able to make it?

The car turned a corner, the scenery was in vain, and when I saw the road signs outside, I knew that I had left the city center and was on the route to the suburbs.

Little by little, time passed, and my heart was in my throat.

The driver was driving at a fast speed, but he was stuck in traffic lights for a minute on the fork in the road.

I felt sweaty in both palms.

The bustling high-rise buildings in the city center gradually decreased, and in the end almost all of them became bungalows and old low-rise houses of a certain age.

A little farther away, there are barely a few small lanes crisscrossed between the old buildings, and at the back of the alley is a very wide construction site, where the houses have not yet taken shape, basically only concrete walls and wooden frames, and several are even covered with green mesh, and there are many water pipes and sediment piled up on the construction site next to the building, apparently still under construction.

That is the residential area in the city that has recently started construction, the Hudu Development Zone.

As soon as I passed the old residential area in front of me, I knew that my destination was almost there.

I looked at my phone, and it was less than 7 minutes before the time given by the kidnappers.

Rub, finally caught up......

I breathed a sigh of relief.

As we approached the old residential area, the driver slowed down and turned back to me and asked, "Where are you going?"

I thought of the kidnapper's rule that I should pay alone, but I asked the driver to stop the car: "It's okay, just park in front of the bungalow in front." ”

The driver nodded, and the car went straight ahead, finally stopping in the direction I had specified.

As soon as the car stopped, I grabbed two suitcases and ran out of the car door, rushing to the alley in front of me with a patchwork of low houses, and then ran for about a few dozen meters before crossing the alley to the construction site in the rear.

There is the Hudu Development Zone.

Hudu Development Zone is not big, but it is not small, it is full of new buildings and mud and sand, exuding a pungent smell of cement vacant land, counting, there are no less than 5 or 6 buildings that have not been formed, and there are many buildings that have been built without decoration so no one has moved in.

Roughly speaking, there are five rows of buildings in this area, and a total of fifteen or sixteen new buildings.

When I looked up and looked at the unformed buildings in front of me, I almost felt dizzy.

Looking at the time on my phone, I remembered the address that kidnapper told me about me.

Three rooftops of the Hudu Development Zone.

I had the address in my mind so well in my mind, so I didn't hesitate to remember it and ran straight to the rightmost part of the building in the first row in front of me.

If nothing is wrong, that building is the place designated by the kidnappers.

Where will Jiaqi, the kidnappers, and the Ma Yike that worries and suspects me so much?

When I rushed all the way to the bottom of the building, I looked at the time, and it was less than two minutes, and it took me a few minutes to get out of the car and run here again.

But I was relieved that at least I hadn't missed the time, and I had already reached the downstairs of the designated floor, and even if the time was over, the kidnappers would definitely come down from the upper floor, and I could bump into him at that time.

Carrying the heavy suitcase in my hand, I took a breath and rushed straight into the unfinished building in front of me.

It was almost evening, and it was a weekend, so I didn't see a single construction worker on the whole site. This worries me a little.

At this point, to be honest, I really have no bottom when I have to face the kidnappers alone.

If there were construction workers or something around here, I could have asked them for help, but now I don't think I have any extravagant hopes.

Mr. Chen didn't know where he was, JC didn't have time to arrive, and no one was passing by, so I knew that I was the only one who could face the kidnappers.

This is the path I have to take.

Other than that, there is no way out.

Maybe six years ago, the day I picked up Jiaqi, I was destined to go on this path today.

Walking into the new building, I climbed up the stairs step by step, where the cement had not dried for long.

Up the stairs, I saw a lot of wooden boards, wires, wires, and paint buckets, and the stairs were full of cement stains and smelled strong.

1st and 2nd floors...... With each floor I went up, I felt heavier and slower, and I even had a mentality of wanting to escape.

Which kidnapper is on it?

What if he wants to hurt me?

What if he suddenly went berserk and picked up a knife and stabbed me? There was no one around here, and even if he destroyed his body, I am afraid I would not be able to resist. What's more, killing me will save him more trouble.

The stairs on each floor are not long, but the process of going upstairs is heavy, and I think about it a lot, to be honest, I was really scared at that moment, I was scared like never before.

But that moment also felt more real than ever.

In that short period of time, I thought about more and more complex issues than I had ever thought about in my life combined.

I began to worry about my life.

Also worried about Jiaqi.

Feeling the heart beating violently in my chest, I don't even know how long this heart that has been with me for 22 years will be beating.

Finally, I went to the top floor, the fifth floor.

Only the first five floors of this new building are residential floors, and the fifth floor and above are the real roofs.

Generally speaking, rooftops are areas where solar panels and water pipes are placed, and it is rare for people to go up to the top floor.

But the address that the kidnappers told me was the top floor.

Standing at the top of the stairs on the fifth floor, I felt my hands and feet tremble.

In less than half a minute, it was time for the kidnappers to set their limit.

It seems that Mr. Chen will not be able to make it in time.

No matter. Mother's Hippie's.

Lao Tzu let it go.

I took a deep breath and walked up the stairs to the top floor, step by step.

At that moment, I felt like I was walking on the road to the eighteenth floor of hell.

One-step...... Two-step ......

Because of my high concentration, I even counted 21 steps.

And then there's a bright exit that hasn't even been fitted yet.

I swallowed, squinted, and slowly walked to the exit until all the sights from the top of the building were in my view.

The roof is a flat floor, with no obstacles except for a patch of cement and a few paint buckets, except for brick walls more than a meter high on the four edges of the roof.

The entire roof of the building was unobstructed in my eyes for a while.

But what about Jiaqi? What about the kidnappers?

What about people?

Why isn't there a person here? Did I remember the wrong address?

I was really taken aback to see the top floor where there was no one at it, and I thought about a lot of the scenes that might happen on the roof, but I just didn't think it would be empty.

Haven't the kidnappers arrived yet?

Or are they already gone, and even Jiaqi has taken them with them?

All kinds of thoughts are breeding in my mind, I looked at my phone, and I did not miss the time, but why is there no one here?

I knew I hadn't mistimed, but I was really at a loss for what I could do, the only thing I could do was wait for the kidnappers to notify me.

Just like that, I stood on the roof of the building for about three minutes with my suitcase in hand, and then my phone rang suddenly.

Hearing the sound of the mobile phone, I felt like I had grabbed a life-saving straw, hurriedly grabbed it out of my pocket, and when I saw the unfamiliar number on it, I directly pressed the answer button and put it to my ear.

"Hey, it's me. I've arrived. You...... And where is the person I want?"

The phone didn't ring for a long time, and it wasn't until I waited for ten seconds that a voice came from inside:

"I'm across from you. ”

Hearing this answer, I was startled, suddenly raised my head and looked ahead, squinted, through a distance of dozens of meters, I happened to see a black figure holding a mobile phone behind the half-height wall of the building opposite.
