Chapter 123: Searching (Foundation 1)
The call came from the store. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After listening to it for two minutes, Xia Li calmly instructed: "I'll be there in three hours, don't close the store, pay attention to the movement, I'll let people come to you in a while." ”
Xia Li hung up the phone and dialed out again without waiting for Xia Zhongguo's questioning, dialed He Wengui, explained, and then called Su Yanqiu.
"Yanqiu, I received a ransom letter, let me prepare 500,000 yuan, you send a few people to use it for me, and I will go to the provincial capital in three hours. ”
Su Yanqiu had been sitting in front of the telephone, and when Xia Li finished speaking, she immediately asked, "Do you need to prepare money?"
"No, if you have money at home, you can borrow a few people for me to use. ”
"Okay, it just so happens that Lao Tu came to me, I'll ask him to drive directly to pick you up, you look at the arrangement. Su Yanqiu said.
Xia Li hung up the phone in response, and then said to Xia Zhongguo: "My little uncle participated in an underground auction in Xiangbei eight days ago, and for some reason he bought a vase of 80,000 yuan, and then someone saw that he had an argument with his friend, and then he disappeared and couldn't be contacted. ”
Xia Li glanced at Mrs. Xia, who came in from behind, paused, and continued: "Just now the store called and said that we received a blackmail letter, saying that we should prepare 500,000 ransoms, otherwise we will tear up the ticket. ”
Xia Zhongguo's expression froze, "It's best to call the police to deal with this matter!"
Xia Li hesitated and said: "I plan to go and see first, Brother He and Yanqiu have sent people here, inquire about what is going on first, and call the police if there is really no clue." ”
Xia Zhongguo hesitated, he is a rule-abiding person, in his opinion, everything has its normal way to deal with it, and it is best to leave things like this to the police, after all, they are ordinary people, and their manpower is limited, but looking at his daughter's insistent eyes, Xia Zhongguo nodded and said: "Okay, but I will accompany you to the provincial capital, otherwise Dad will not worry." ”
Xia Li thought about it and nodded in response.
The old lady here didn't say much, hurriedly cooked, and let the two of them eat before leaving.
Before the food reached his mouth, Lao Tu drove over, Xia Li asked someone to come in and eat together, packed up his things and went out.
Lao Tu is in his forties, a veteran, and he doesn't know who Su Yanqiu got from there, I heard that it is a team, and they are all for Su Yanqiu.
While driving, Lao Tu asked about the cause and effect of the incident, and then took out the big brother and made a few phone calls, and asked the address of the store, and asked his people to go to the store to standby.
Seeing this, Xia Zhongguo also listened quietly and didn't say much, while Xia Li sat quietly cross-legged in the back seat and meditated.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the car arrived at the store, and when Xia Li arrived at the door of the store, she saw that Donald was constantly looking towards the door, looking uneasy.
Seeing Xia Li coming in as if she had a backbone, she hurriedly greeted her from behind the counter, greeted Tang Xueli and looked at the store, and went to the backyard with people.
At this time, there were already five people sitting in the backyard waiting, two of them were Lao Tu's people, and three of them were He Wengui's people.
Xia Li greeted and went to the back warehouse with Tang Lao, who took out the extortion letter held with red paper from his arms.
This is what Xia Li explained on the phone before, to wrap it in red paper and don't let people touch it with their hands anymore, Old Tang didn't know what this meant, but he strictly implemented it.
Xia Li took the paper and looked at it, it was an ordinary A4 white paper, the words were written in a mess, and the meaning was very clear, but the place and time of the transaction were not written, and finally said that they should wait for the call.
Xia Li glanced at it and said, "You tell everyone to wait first." ”
Xia Li took the paper and entered the warehouse, because she promised to take over a job to find someone a while ago, so she hurried up and learned the hexagram of finding people and measuring words with Jinbao, but she was serious about giving others a side, and she tried it a few times at home.
Spreading out a mat for usual practice in the warehouse, Xia Lipan sat down, closed his eyes and felt it with his heart, and took out three copper coins and shook them in the palm of his hand before scattering them.
The first place, Wei Kunshen, southwest direction, two copper coins a symbol of the direction, one is the distance, this is not close, last time she tried the direction of Xia He at home, when Xia He was still in the provincial capital, the distance on the side of the meeting is about the same as the current distance, and then Xia He went to Xiangjiang, and the distance where she appeared in the hexagram was large.
In the southwest direction, about three hours by car, Xia Li put away the mat and went out, at this time there was a circle of people sitting in the courtyard, and Lao Tu was still waiting for Xia Li, so his people didn't move.
And He Wengui also came, Xia Li greeted him and asked, "Southwest, what are the closest cities three hours away from the provincial capital?"
Everyone didn't know why, He Wengui was stunned after hearing this: "If it is determined that it is a three-hour drive, then there is only Wuming County, and in the southwest direction, except for Wuming County, the others are more than an hour, or it is two hours, and there are other counties in the middle, but the southwest is Wuming County." ”
Lao Tu thought about it in his mind and nodded his head to confirm.
Xia Li was stunned, how could she forget it, Wuming County is southwest, which shows that it is very likely that an acquaintance committed the crime.
Xia Li called Lao Tu and He Wengui aside and explained the results of his calculations, saying that the person was located in the southwest direction of a three-hour drive.
Both of them were at a loss, deduced?
Xia Li is very determined, and when she arrives at the place, she will take the clothes worn by Wu Chunlai and test it again, which should be very accurate.
He Wengui was dazed but excited, this is an opportunity, originally his father was a little suspicious that Xia Li could find someone who had been missing for five years, this is an opportunity, if Xia Li can find her uncle with her own ability this time, it means that she has real ability.
So everyone scattered from the front of the back door, and Lao Tu left someone in the store, in case someone came to the door, it would be easy to deal with.
So everyone went on the road again, this way Lao Tu, He Wengui, Xia Li, Xia Zhongguo a car.
Xia Zhongguo got into the car and knew that it was the result of his daughter's calculation, and he felt a little uneasy, this is a matter of human life, what if his daughter miscalculated, what should he do.
It's just that at this time, he only showed a worried look, but he didn't say anything, for fear of destroying the child's momentum in front of outsiders.
It was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived in Wuming County, Xia Zhongguo was persuaded by Xia Li to go back first, Xia Li saw that Xia's father was reluctant and worried, so he instructed: "Dad, order a table of good dishes outside, we have to thank people for coming to help." ”
The corners of Xia Zhongguo's mouth twitched, no one could find it, so he was thinking about the celebration banquet, who is this daughter like, where does this confidence come from.
