Chapter 23: Tracking

Rustling footsteps sounded, and a slender pillar of bright light swayed across the dark dirt road, and when the pillar of light focused on a mobile phone on the ground, one hand picked it up.

Jiang Donghuan blew off the floating soil on the surface, looked at the pitch-black screen full of cracks and shatters, and tried to press the power button but there was no response.

Not unexpectedly, he put it away, and his eyes moved to the silver Mercedes-Benz sports car with broken glass that was quietly parked next to him.

Jiang Donghuan did not rush forward, but first carefully observed the distribution of the few glass fragments on the ground.

The glass slag that shone brightly under the light of the flashlight, from more to less, converged into two paths, and finally slowly disappeared in one place.

Are both tied up?

Jiang Donghuan walked there, leaned over and looked down at the shallow tire marks left on the dirt road, and took pictures to record them.

He frowned again and looked back at the messy footprints on the ground before coming to the smashed car and looking down into the window.

There was no blood, no suspicious objects, and no particularly valuable clues other than the discovery of pieces of glass residue.

After checking again, he pulled out his phone and dialed it.

"Hello? I need your help..."

******

"Within 30 minutes, according to the tire model you provided, there are a total of thirteen vehicles that may be suitable for the haunting, there are no cameras there, and the nearest surveillance is also some distance away, and the search range is too large."

Red Ginseng turned to look at Jiang Donghuan who was standing behind him and said, "Next, you can only slowly track one by one to see which one is suspicious, which will be very time-consuming, and the other party is likely to change cars or take pictures halfway." ”

"It's okay, take your time, give me a computer, I'll look for it with you."

Jiang Donghuan came to her and sat down and said.

"You'd better check what's on your phone first."

Red Ginseng pointed to Kim Taeyeon's phone, which had been dismantled into a pile of parts, and said, "The bugging device you installed in it will automatically keep a short timed overlay audio, and I will help you extract it." ”

Kang Dong-hwan nodded, put on headphones, and began to study the information in Kim Taeyeon's phone.

First of all, the recording mentioned by the red ginseng just now, Kang Dong Hwan listened carefully again, compared to the time when he was on the phone just now, except for the conversation between Kim Taeyeon and Byun Baek-hyun at the beginning, it seems that there is nothing special.

But just when he thought he would find nothing, he suddenly heard two lines of dialogue.

"What about this phone?"

"Break and throw it away, be careful to be positioned."

It's an Incheon accent! He was already proficient in Korean, and he made a judgment in an instant.

"Pay special attention to the cars driving in the direction of Incheon!"

Jiang Donghuan immediately reminded the red ginseng beside him.

He really didn't expect that the positioning and eavesdropping device left by Yoo unintentionally in Kim Taeyeon's mobile phone has become a key prop to find the other party today.

After Jiang Donghuan finished speaking, he continued to open other information, and the information exchanges and call records without any doubts made him a little puzzled.

Judging from the other party's clean and unprocrastinating actions before, it is obvious that she has been planning for a long time, and it seems that no one else knows about her tonight's itinerary except herself, which makes some sense.

Is it because of Bian Boxian's side?

Kim Taeyeon is just a pond fish that has been affected?

Or is all this itself directed and acted by the other party?

Jiang Donghuan's doubts and assumptions jumped out one by one.

He turned his head to the red ginseng and said, "I'll check the surveillance video, you help me check Bian Boxian's information, bank statements, call records, and email messages..."

Red Ginseng glanced at him, got up and swapped places with him.

"What kind of relationship do you have with that Kim Taeyeon?"

Red Ginseng asked casually as he quickly manipulated his hands on the keyboard.

"Why do you ask?"

Kang Dong-hwan's eyes were glued to the public surveillance video of the road, which kept switching.

"Because you actually violated discipline and asked me for help, instead of calling the police and leaving it alone."

"Calling the police just to prepare their company and wait for the police to rescue? The daylilies are cold. You are now my subordinate, who do you need to use? ”

Jiang Donghuan replied casually absentmindedly.

"Besides, I'm not a monk, isn't it strange to have a woman around?"

"It's not strange, it's just that it's strange if the other party is a star with a high degree of exposure, not to mention that you are so concerned, are you serious?"

Both of them stared intently at the screen and operated rapidly, but they kept talking, as if they were single-mindedly trying to do two things without any interference.

"What do you mean by seriousness? What does it mean to be not serious? Maybe I'll die one day, so why do I care so much. ”

"I was just wondering if you would die sooner like this."

"Just be happy before you die."

"Then you can be a merry ghost, but don't drag me into the water."

Red ginseng knocked on the lower lane with a snap: "I found it, the other party's bank account had an abnormally large amount of cash flow some time ago, and according to the call records at the same time, he seems to have been in contact with a strange person." ”

"Who is it?"

"One is a newspaper person, and the other is suspected of being a loan shark."

Jiang Donghuan looked at the phone circled by red ginseng and took out his mobile phone.

******

"What? Kidnap?!! ”

Kim Young-min, the president of Girls' Generation's agency, yelled into the phone in disbelief.

"That's right, we rushed over after receiving the alarm, according to the scene investigation, it is very likely that Miss Kim Tae-yeon was kidnapped, and there was another person in the car who also disappeared, but it is not possible to confirm who it is for the time being, if you receive any suspicious calls, please contact us immediately."

Kim Youngmin's face was extremely ugly, and even the hand holding the phone was bruised from overexertion.

"Deputy Chief Park, can you first block the news of this case and investigate it secretly?"

"You mean..."

"This will have a huge impact on the image of our company, and I don't think Deputy Chief Park wants to cause panic because of the news report, after all, it was Kim Taeyeon from Girls' Generation, and I probably know who the other person is, it should be Byun Baek-hyun..."

"Also an artist in your company? It's a problem, okay, I'll arrange it, but I can't guarantee how long it will be kept secret, after all, you know, those dog-nosed reporters are really smart now. ”

"Then please leave it to Vice-Chancellor Park."

"As for the victims' families..."

"We'll let you know." Kim Young-min agreed.

"Okay, if it's a kidnapping, please be prepared to cooperate with the rescue."

"Okay"

After Kim Young-min hung up the phone, he was stunned for a while, and then he began to call non-stop to call an emergency meeting and start studying crisis public relations strategies to deal with it.

He didn't care if they were dead or alive, kidnapped or killed.

He is concerned about minimizing the impact on the company!
