"Impossible, impossible

! ”

At this time, it was already past midnight, and the administrative person in charge of the Children's Palace was obviously forcibly taken out of his sleep, with a pair of sleepy eyes swollen to the eyebrow bone, a shirt button, a donkey's lips not in the horse's mouth, and a pair of slippers under his feet: "How many children come in and out here all day and night?" The security is the strictest, even parents have to register when they enter and exit, and there are no dead ends in 360 degrees, you say there are traffickers here, what are you kidding? I vouch for it with my head, absolutely impossible! Unless that kid walks on his own legs, or aliens invade the earth, and he won't be able to enter our school! ”

"Deputy Tao, we just turned on the phone remotely through the tracking software on Zhang Yuchen's mobile phone, and we have found the approximate location, near Baitao Lane!"

"White Peach Lane," Tao Ran was stunned, "How can you be in White Peach Lane?" ”

White Peach Lane is about three stations away from the Children's Palace here, is a famous small commodity distribution center in the city, many online stores are open here, often all night open, there are wholesale clothes, there are small accessories sold by the pound, large bags of small bags of wholesalers are running around, a little careless, will be on the road of pickpockets and liars, lively and chaotic. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

For the children who secretly run out to play, White Peach Lane is too chaotic and really nothing fun, and for the perverts who abduct children, White Peach Lane is too crowded, and the risk is too high.

Tao Ran pinched the bridge of his nose hard: "Slow, let me think about it first......"

Before he finished speaking, Chenchen's mother had already pushed away two criminal policemen and rushed over: "Officer Tao, I heard it, did you locate Chenchen's mobile phone?" Where is she? ”

Lang Qiao, who came temporarily in the middle of the night, hurried over and stopped her and whispered comfort.

"I obviously told her, I tell her every day, go out to pay attention to safety, don't go with strangers, don't go to unfamiliar places, if there is something temporary, you have to send a message to adults at any time, I said that I feel annoyed, if this mouth is iron, it has been worn off......"

Chang Ning wiped away her tears with one hand and pulled her with the other: "Sister-in-law, don't be like this." ”

As soon as Tao Ran saw Chang Ning wiping his tears, his anxiety skyrocketed to ten: "Xiao Qiao'er, you stay here to investigate the surveillance video, and you guys come with me and go to Baitao Lane." ”

The police car crossed like a meteor from the night, the four wheels almost left the ground, the road of three stops, five or six minutes has arrived, the season is about to change, the first batch of autumn clothes is about to be put on the shelves, Baitao Lane is about to squeeze into "Baimao Lane", and the buyers and sellers who are rubbing shoulders have created a local urban heat island by breathing.

People shuttled through it, and in less than three or two minutes, they had already squeezed out the sweat of their heads and faces.

Tao Ran looked around blankly and asked the technician, "Can you narrow down the scope a little more?" ”

"It's approaching the west exit of White Peach Lane," the technician's voice sounded in his earphones, "The other party hasn't noticed that the phone is on yet, Deputy Tao, you have to do it as soon as possible." ”

Tao Ran glanced at a few of his subordinates, and several people immediately acted separately in tacit understanding, approaching the west side of the mouth of Bai Tao Lane from several directions, Tao Ran ran out of his legs, and his eyes swept over everyone who passed by him. Garbage trucks, pick-up trucks, one-person-high cargo bags...... All the places where people might be hiding, they didn't let go of any place, and searched one by one, although no one sounded the siren, but this one searched quickly, and the atmosphere in White Peach Lane suddenly became tense.

Suddenly, a technician's warning came from Tao Ran's headphones: "Deputy Tao, the other party found something unusual and turned it off!" ”

Tao Ran's tense gaze subconsciously swept around, just next to a large garbage can, a thin man inadvertently raised his head, the two happened to look at each other, the man paused for a second, and then saw Tao Ran's uniform clearly, threw down something in his hand, and ran away

What he threw down was a white cell phone with a mess of small stickers on the back.

Tao Ran's pupils shrank: "Stop!" ”

In the exclamation of the woman pushing the cart, the clothes on the cart fell to the ground like a landslide, and a "electric donkey" next to it hurriedly braked sharply to avoid the things that rolled under the wheels, and scolded.

In the chaos, the man had already stepped onto the guardrail on the side of the street, his figure shook over, and he was about to cross the road, when a tall policeman suddenly jumped out of a small intersection next to him, grabbed the back of his neck like a chicken, twisted his backhand, and pressed the person to the ground, Tao Ran turned around and picked up the white mobile phone that was thrown aside, and turned it on again, and the desktop was Chenchen's cat-faced selfie.

He let out a long breath and strode over to the man who had been controlled: "What about people? ”

The man hurt his nose when he was knocked down, and as soon as he looked up colorfully, he showed a crying pleading expression at Tao Ran: "I, I, I was wrong, the government, I promise to change my past mistakes this time and never do it again...... Ouch...... Hiss...... You, you tap ......"

Tao Ran grabbed his collar: "What about the girl?" ”

"Huh?"

At this time, Luo Wenzhou had already driven to the gate of the Children's Palace.

Lang Qiao saw the familiar license plate at a glance, and rushed over in three steps and two steps: "Boss! ”

"What's the situation, Tao Ran?" Luo Wenzhou said, turned around and waved his hand into the car, "You sit in the car first." ”

The people in the car didn't listen to him, and walked down with one arm hanging down.

Lang Qiao couldn't help but be stunned: "Yo, Mr. Fei, you are ...... Why is it still 'armor'? ”

"Minor accident," Fei Du glanced up at the buildings near the Children's Palace, "Is there any news?" ”

Before Lang Qiao could answer, a squeaky police car stopped at the gate of the Children's Palace with a sudden brake, and Tao Ran and several criminal policemen got out of the car with solemn faces.

Seeing Luo Wenzhou's questioning gaze, Tao Ran shook his head: "Chenchen's mobile phone was stolen, the old fritter, a habitual offender, just released from the detention center, he said that there was a girl tying her shoes on the side of the road, and the mobile phone was placed on the stone flower bed next to her, and she left by herself after tying her shoes, and forgot her mobile phone there, so he just 'picked it up'." ”

Luo Wenzhou: "Which street?" When was it stolen? ”

"It should be near the Children's Palace...... Tao Ran stroked his hair vigorously, his brows tied together, "That kid found seven or eight mobile phones ready to be shot, all of which are today's performance, and he can't tell the specific time and place." ”

"Brother," Fei Du asked beside him, "What are you panicking about, what's wrong?" ”

"I asked Chang Ning, Chenchen wore a floral skirt today." Tao Ran's face was ugly, and his voice was fast and urgent, "If it's true...... The murderer kidnapped two children in a row within five days, and this frequency is too high, indicating that Qu Tong has been 100 percent ...... Chenchen was kidnapped around five o'clock, and it has been more than seven hours now, and it is likely that he ...... too."

"Shhhhh ”

"What's wrong with me?" Tao Ran smiled bitterly, "I'm not a parent of a child - I haven't dared to mention these speculations to Chenchen's family until now...... The suspicious person you told me last time was an old man, right, are you sure? ”

"Not sure, it's too far away," Fei Du said, "Chenchen is a sensitive girl, I scared her last time when I warned her to be safe, I shouldn't have forgotten it so quickly, including the old people and acquaintances, I believe she won't be defenseless, even if someone tricks her out, she won't forget to send a message to her family."

。 ”

"Deputy Tao, the child was found in the studio surveillance!"

Tao Ran turned around suddenly, and was just about to lift his legs to walk, Luo Wenzhou pressed his shoulder: "Leave it to me, you are responsible for talking to the little girl's parents to see if there is any abnormality in the child recently, whether the parents have offended anyone, and how their family relationship is - we can't miss any possibilities." ”

Fei Du leaned aside: "Need my help?" ”

Luo Wenzhou hesitated: "What are you doing?" ”

Fei Du replied shamelessly: "I am a group of relatives and friends." ”

Luo Wenzhou stretched out a finger and nodded at him with a slight warning, but he still didn't say to let him go cool.

The monitoring of the studio is very clear, at about half past four, the other children were picked up by their parents one after another, Chenchen sat alone in the classroom, looking through the picture album left by the teacher without a match, looking out of the window from time to time, in ten minutes, she stared at the window for more than five minutes.

Luo Wenzhou was puzzled: "What is she looking at?" ”

Lang Qiao: "Mirror." ”

Luo Wenzhou's face was inexplicable.

"The little girl uses the glass window as a mirror, and she only needs to turn her head to see the scenery, and she doesn't need to twist the whole person to get closer, and she also curls the ends of her hair with a ballpoint pen," said Lang Qiao, "and the girl knows it...... Hey? ”

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Chenchen suddenly sit up straight, and the whole person left the chair slightly, suddenly smiled, stood up, quickly packed up his things and ranβ€”the record in the corner showed that the time was about 4:40.

Luo Wenzhou immediately raised his eyes to see where the studio was located, and the window was facing the playground.

The surveillance on the building closest to the playground was also quickly called up, and Chenchen could be seen quickly running out of the school building, towards a group of children gathered on the playground, the camera was a little far away, and only caught her lingering in the group of children for a while, and then walked to the surveillance corner with several of the girls, and quickly left the camera range.

Judging from the scene, the direction they went should be a row of red buildings in the northwest corner of the Children's Palace.

"What's the situation?" Luo Wenzhou frowned and asked, "Didn't the person in charge say that there are no dead ends in the park?" ”

"The row of red houses in the northwest corner is a public toilet, and there are no cameras."

"Don't say it sooner! Identify the children on the surveillance video and immediately ask them - bring the map. ”

There is a small park in the northwest corner of the Children's Palace, which is very loosely managed, the lawn in the outer ring has been trampled by the residents who walk, the footprints and dog poop complement each other, and no one goes to the depths, the grass and trees grow wildly, like mosquito bombers, the police dogs are quickly in place, and the flashlights and dog barks come and go.

Fei Du listened thoughtfully to the conversation between Tao Ran and Chenchen's father.

"I arrived around 5:50 and told her that I was okay...... I called at the door first, and when I heard the phone turned off, I thought it was out of power, so I registered in with the doorman to look for it - but there was no room for it, I didn't think she could lose it, this is the Children's Palace, and it is no different from the school, and I thought she was going to the toilet or running somewhere to play...... I was quite angry and waited in their studio for a while, and when the security guard had already started to check the doors and windows one by one to turn off the lights, I was a little panicked, and I asked the female teacher to help me go to the bathroom to find someone......"

Chenchen's mother grabbed his shoulders and burst into tears: "Is she that kind of child?" Knowing that the adults were waiting for her, she ran out by herself without saying a word...... Yes? Is there a dad like you? If something happens, I want to blame my daughter first, if something happens to the child, I ......"

Chenchen's father was pulled by her, and he closed his mouth without saying a word, Tao Ran and Chang Ning hurriedly separated the two of them left and right

Fei Du suddenly asked: "It is said that the child tracking system on the mobile phone can be turned on and off remotely, and the police officers should have located Chenchen's mobile phone in this way just now, why didn't you remember to turn on her mobile phone at that time?" ”

"I thought about it," Chenchen's father showed an expression of collapse, desperately holding back, and kept gasping in extreme depression, "But I didn't know what was wrong with the software at the time, and kept telling me that the remote service connection failed...... I don't like this again......"

"Chenchen's mobile phone has been recovered," Tao Ran said, "at least half of the battery is still available, it should be that you were stolen by pickpockets when you made the first call, could it be that the child found out that the mobile phone was lost and went out to find it himself?" ”

"The risk of stealing in the Children's Palace is too great," Fei Du shook his head, "It's not very likely, it should be that she left the park by herself for some reason, and there was more than half an hour from the end of class to the time agreed with you, and she bought snacks and played with her classmates in the surrounding small shops...... It's possible, but usually doesn't leave within a kilometre of the surroundings, so that if she gets a call from you, she can immediately return to the entrance of the Children's Palace - have you been taught what to do if something is stolen outside? ”

"Taught," Chang Ning glanced at Tao Ran and said softly, "I joked with her a few days ago, saying that she could find Tao Ran's brother if she encountered anything in the future, she knew how to call the police, and she knew how to go back to the school to find security." ”

Tao Ran patted the back of her hand, gave her a reassuring look, and said softly: "The Children's Palace is surrounded by downtown areas, and it was rush hour after work, so it should be relatively safe, except for the small park in the northwest corner......"

"No," Chang Ning grabbed his wrist as if seeking comfort, "Chenchen is very timid, she doesn't dare to sleep alone after reading the suspense story, she can't run to a place where there is no one by herself!" ”

Fei Du suddenly said: "If it's not himself, but with his classmates?" ”

Several people looked at him stunned.

Fei Du walked up to Chenchen's father: "When did you first try to turn on her mobile phone remotely?" ”

"Six o'clock...... It's past six o'clock," said Chenchen's father, "and it was her teacher who reminded me." ”

Fei Du: "How did you do it at that time, can you show me how?" ”

"Boss, the teacher over there helped contact those children in the surveillance just now!" Lang Qiao pushed away a cluster of branches in front of him and quickly caught up with Luo Wenzhou, "They went to the bathroom to change clothes, and then ran to the small park together to take pictures." ”

"Take a picture?"

"There was a child in the photography class who had to hand in his homework, asked a few girls to be models, and a few children also brought clothes for taking pictures, and after a while, after taking photos, Zhang Yuchen wanted to go back to the Children's Palace, and they were disbanded at the gate of the park, and no one knew where Zhang Yuchen went later."

Luo Wenzhou took a deep breath - it's broken.

If Chenchen finds that her mobile phone is gone after being separated from her friends, the child's first reaction is to leave the place where the photo was taken, and she will return to the small park that is inaccessible to find - but the small park is not a street, and what happened after that may be difficult to trace

Lang Qiao: "Boss, what should I do?" ”

Luo Wenzhou pondered for a moment, took out his mobile phone and called the person in charge of keeping an eye on Xu Wenchao.

"Report on Xu Wenchao's movements today."

"Xu Wenchao handed over the dashcam to Deputy Tao, and only left our bureau at 5:40, drove to a fast food restaurant for more than 20 minutes, packed it home, and never moved after that."

Luo Wenzhou asked in a low voice, "Are you sure he has been at home all the time?" ”

"Sure, he didn't pull the curtains, he was in the study all the time, and he never left our field of visionβ€”what's wrong, boss?"

"Boss, either we suspect the wrong person," Lang Qiao said, "or this case has nothing to do with Qu Tong's disappearance - I'm really weird, why are there so many perverts in the world?" ”

Before Luo Wenzhou could speak, his mobile phone rang, and the caller ID was "troublesome".

"How?"

Mr. "Trouble" said unhurriedly over there: "The thief didn't steal the mobile phone from Chenchen, he was reasonable, it was indeed the girl who took the mobile phone at that time who 'forgot' it there." ”

Luo Wenzhou immediately asked, "How do you know?" ”

"Mr. Zhang tried to use the remote to open the child's mobile phone at about six o'clock, but the remote failed, I think his operation is fine, in this case, either one of the two of them had no signal at that time, or the child's mobile phone battery was pulled out." Fei Du paused slightly, "The thief doesn't need to pick up the battery and put it on, and he may not know what software is on the phone, there is only one possibility I can think of - one of the children in that group took advantage of Chenchen's time to change clothes or pose to hide her mobile phone, and after Chenchen found out, he suggested that she go back to the small park to find it, and volunteered to accompany her." ”

She will naturally trust her friend and tell them that she has a remote system on her phone.

"You're saying a kid -- probably a girl -- orchestrated this." Luo Wenzhou took a breath, "Not only kidnapping friends, but also deliberately throwing the victim's mobile phone out to confuse the public?" That's too ......."

Fei Du chuckled lightly meaninglessly.

Luo Wenzhou suddenly remembered the young man with gloomy and cold eyes back then, and swallowed the next words.

"Why are you thinking in this direction?"

"Because I warned her to be careful of adults, familiar, strange, men, women, and even old people," Fei Du said, "and the only thing I didn't say was that children were like her." ”

Why can't it be a child?

Little girls in their early teens, like flowers and bones, beautiful and delicate, ignorant and fragile, the whole world regards them as potential victims, as if they lack the soul and wisdom, and it is too late to take care of them, how can they suspect that they will also commit crimes?

Luo Wenzhou hung up Fei Du's phone and turned to Lang Qiao: "When the teacher of the Children's Palace called just now, was there any phone call that was not answered by the parents at the beginning?" ”

When Lang Qiao went to catch the murderer with a knife with his bare hands, he never showed such a terrifying face: "Okay...... There seems to be a ......"
