Now that the residential building was locked, I began to look around and wonder which building Wei Kai was looking for would be hiding in, this was originally a factory building, the architectural style of the 80s of the last century, and the almost identical appearance made people who came here for the first time feel like they were lost. I glanced at the outermost building, and knew to myself that there must be a room gang occupying it. The outermost building can easily observe what is happening outside, and if the situation changes outside, it can detect and notify the accomplices who are engaged in illegal transactions inside to flee. In this way, I looked around the community, so there should be gangs in the four buildings outside the outside that are rented to be used for their own trading is a room to stand guard, so the transaction must not be born in the outer building that is not easy to escape.

Then there are only a dozen or so low slabs in the middle, but it is still impractical to search for them one by one, and it is very dangerous, and it is very likely that people will find them suspicious, and lose their lives before finding them. I used the idea I just used to speculate, how can I quickly escape after being discovered? Install their own eyeliner around it, indicating that the gang leader is not only very vigilant, but also has a certain anti-investigation ability, knowing that the most common arrest method used by the police is to copy around, as long as it is not a major case, it is generally not initially scheduled for a helicopter to carry out fixed-point parachute arrest, so as long as they find the farthest place at the two gates of the community, they will be able to buy more escape time for themselves when they hear the sentry warning that the abnormal situation appears.

Coupled with the experience gained by cooperating with Li Jing when he was frustrated before, if the criminals had prepared in advance, most of them would choose the path that had been arranged before when they fled. If the community is surrounded on all sides, the possibility of forcibly breaking through is zero, and even if you succeed in leaving, you will lose a lot, and the most important thing is that you will leave clues about your escape, or will the police find them. Therefore, they would never buy such a big risk to lose their lives, and he Amen would definitely plan his escape route in advance.

The possibility of leaving through the gate had been denied by me, but they couldn't disappear out of thin air, so I looked at the neighborhood and finally set my eyes on the floor of the neighborhood. It's an old-fashioned residential area with no underground garages at all, but because of this, the police simply don't have a way to stop them underground in advance, which also allows them to use the underground space as their first choice for escaping. It seems that if you want to find them now, you just need to find the basement of the building they rented, and you can find the building they are in. I bet they should be trading on the first floor of the same building, and as long as they open a part of the partition between the first floor and the basement floor, they can escape and disappear without warning in the event of an emergency. As for why they didn't rent the basement directly, I think it was to hide people's eyes, after all, if the police knew in advance that they had rented the underground space, they would also take defensive measures in advance.

I was looking for directions, but I still couldn't decide which building to build. For the time being, in order to prevent Wei Kai from being discovered by the other party, I have already dispelled the idea of asking him directly, and I really have to rely on Zheng Min's help at this time. I sent my current needs to Zheng Min, hoping to get help from her: Zheng Min, I want to check the situation under the original staff dormitory in Jiangneng Industrial Zone, North District, urgently.

Less than five minutes after I sent the text message, Zheng Min's phone was dragged over. As soon as I connected, I could hear Zheng Min screaming on the other end of the phone as if someone had stepped on his tail: "Xiaozhi, what did you do today?" Now the client finds the boss and says that he wants to terminate the contract and withdraw the commission. ”

"What?" I didn't understand Zheng Min's words for a while.

"The entrusting party, it is Lin Zhenzhen's parents who asked the boss to suspend his job to investigate the disappearance of their nephew." Although Zheng Min was in a hurry, he still seriously explained the ins and outs of the matter to me.

But after listening to Zheng Min's explanation, I was even more confused, and asked in surprise: "Why, Su Baijia went back?" ”

"Nope." Zheng Min denied my speculation, "Su Baijia still hasn't found it. But you're in trouble. Did you go to Subajar's school this morning to do your research? ”

Although Zheng Min couldn't see my movements over the phone, I still nodded and admitted: "Yes, we met a student who was one or two years younger than him at Valve School, and talked about his situation at school, and found that his classmates seemed to have some kind of misunderstanding about his father. ”

When I finished speaking, Zheng Min hurriedly interjected and asked me, "Did you let Wei Kai appear in front of your investigator as his original identity?" ”

"That's right," I don't think there's anything to hide, "those kids don't cooperate at all, so I can only let Wei Kai show his true identity and attract the attention of those kids to exchange information." ”

Zheng Min asked angrily on the phone: "You two are really capable, do you know that Wei Kai's appearance has become the biggest news of that school today?" After chatting with you, the kid turned around and showed off to his classmates that he had met a wanted star today, and said that Wei Kai was very rude and would hit him if he didn't agree with him. ”

Listening to Zheng Min's description, in addition to complaining in his heart that the bear child's mouth was really cheap, he also had to admit that if the bear child was still the attitude of the second middle school, Wei Kai would really be able to beat him. "What else did the kid say?" There should be news that we are looking for his senior, right? I guessed in my mind.

Sure enough, Zheng Min's answer just confirmed my guess: "I also said that you were looking for Su Baijia." Later, the school teacher heard about the incident and reported it to the dean, who told the principal about the matter, and the principal found Su Baijia's current guardian, that is, Lin Zhenzhen's parents, saying that their investigation had seriously affected the school's management and the daily life of the students. Moreover, you know Wei Kai's special identity, and the fact that the bear kid described Wei Kai as a very dangerous person makes everyone very worried. Lin Zhenzhen's parents, that is, Su Baijia's guardians, did not know that we had hired Wei Kai, and now they want to withdraw the commission out of consideration for the safety of the child, that is, let Wei Kaicong withdraw during the investigation. By the way, what did you just say? What misunderstanding? "Now Zheng Min realized that she seemed to have missed some information, and asked me for verification.

"It's too late." I said.

"What's too late, where are you going? Where are you now? Zheng Min's voice suddenly became nervous.

"I'm safe now, but I don't know what happened to the two of them. It's too late because we can't get out of the mandate. We've progressed to the point where we've determined that Su Baijia's departure from home is related to his father's death, and I'm now at the location I sent you just for you to investigate. After answering Zheng Min's three questions, I gave him a rough overview of what I had discovered throughout the day, "After following this clue, we traced it here, and we now speculate that Su Baijia should be preparing to unilaterally expose the conspiracy of a certain gang in order to clear his father's charges." ”

"Wei Kai is not with you?" Zheng Minhu asked me suspiciously, "Look at the posture of you sending me a message, because it should be the two of you acting separately." Obviously, Wei Kai should be more familiar with the gang's routine of hiding his trading location, but now you are asking me to help you, is it because of their disagreement to investigate separately, or because the two of you are fighting separately? ”

"It's not a separate action, it's Wei Kai acting alone." I directly interrupted Zheng Min's speculation, and then added, "Although he left a note for me to ask me to answer, I can't drive, impossible."

"So the current situation is that Wei Kai left you to look for the child, and you came to the wolf's den to look for him alone after you found out?" Zheng Min sneered on the other end of the phone, "Let me say what is good about you?" There is no sense of teamwork at all, not to mention, both of them are self-righteous and put themselves directly in the wolf pile, scrambling to give others as feed, for fear that others will not know that you are going to rob you of the fat in your mouth, and give them a knife by the way. "It may be that Zheng Min was annoyed by the wayward choice of the two of us, and the tone of her voice was full of sarcasm, which she rarely did before.

I had to admit my mistake with a smile on my face, and urged him to do everything he could to help me find the information about the basement rental.

"Why the information there?" Although I complained about Wei Kai's words and deeds, I could still hear the sound of keyboard tapping from the other end of the phone, and Zheng Min must have relented to help me check the news.

I roughly shared my conjectures with Zheng Min and then added: "I think if they want to dig an escape channel, they shouldn't rent from an agency, and once the police suspect that they are engaged in illegal transactions, I think it will be easy to find out their rental information from the agency, and then find out their escape strategy, so it is not a good arrest plan in advance." I don't think they will be stupid enough to carry out such a strategy that is too easy to expose themselves, and they will definitely act carefully and leave no clues. But their attempt to cover it up can only be temporarily concealed. If the police deploy further, it will still be difficult to escape the investigation. First of all, the basement of the current residential house is generally jointly rented, although there is less risk of exposure such as intermediary registration, but in a group of basements where the intermediary jointly rents out the beds, there is a self-use room, unless it is really the owner of the house, it is very suspicious. ”

"Got it." Zheng Min came with good news, "They are not as stupid as you think, I did a cross-comparison in the background of major intermediary companies, there are 4 buildings in that community and several scattered basements have not been rented by intermediaries, they should have thought of your previous guess, so keep an eye on it and rent a few more rooms to confuse the public." ”

"Isn't there any other good news?" I asked Zheng Min expectantly, praying for a more direct hint.

"Nope." Zheng Min's answer was like a basin of cold water pouring down, and I sighed resignedly: "I know, I'm very grateful for being able to find so much." ”

"If there is anything I can help at one time, just say quickly, I still have more than ten minutes to get on the plane, and I have to fly for 4 hours, and I can't solve it if you have a problem at that time." Zheng Min finally relented, and his tone slowed down a little compared to just now.

I was about to say no, but suddenly I thought of something else: "Zheng Min, can you help me find out what gangs are in the North District?" By the way, can you help me find out who has been arrested in the North District in the past five years for drug dealing? Or prosecuted for both drugs and abusive violence? ”

The sound of a quick tapping on the keyboard from the other end of the headset came: "I can only help you make a simple inquiry from the court's announcement now, there is." Zheng Min said, "I want to catch a flight, and I am with a colleague, so I can't provide you with too much help, I have sent specific information to your mailbox, there should be a lot, but this time you can really rely on yourself to judge which information is useful to you." And, Xiaozhi? ”

I was about to thank her for the call when Zheng Min stopped me. "What's wrong?" I asked her, and listening to her tone, it seemed like she wanted to confirm something with me.

"Do you think the child's father was involved in the drug trade?" Zheng Min's tone became cautious, except for when I had amnesia, she had tried to see how many things I remembered before, in my impression she has always been very resolute, I guess there are any concerns.

But in fact, I really didn't know how to answer her, so I told the truth: "I don't know, I don't have any information about his father, and I just heard a few words from the mouth of the bear child in the morning, which is completely different from the information given to me by the client." I don't know who to believe, but since Su Baijia has tracked it here, I think it does have a certain relationship with drugs, but whether it was involved in the transaction, or whether it was a drug addiction or death, I can't make a judgment, after all, it is a matter that can only be investigated after finding the child and bringing him back to the client safely. "I made it clear that no matter what the father of that child is, the first thing we have to do is make sure that child is safe.

Zheng Min didn't speak for a long time, but he didn't mean to hang up the phone, I was a little anxious, because now Wei Kai and Su Baijia are missing, I really don't have time to play a game with her, so I simply lost my temper and wanted to hang up the phone, but Zheng Min immediately stopped me and said a very explosive news that I heard: "Su Baijia's father Su Jin is my former teacher." ”

"Teacher?" I was amazed, "I don't remember you had such a teacher when you were in college?" ”

"Nope." "It was my teacher at the publishing house, and it was the publisher who sent him to take pictures of the relocation of the industrial area, because then we heard that it had become a gathering place for gangs. At first, it was fine, but once when the teacher went to shoot at night, he witnessed a death, and then the teacher's attitude towards the shooting changed, and he seemed to be completely immersed in the report, and even stepped on the edge of the most danger. After the first investigation between you and Li Jing at that time, I was transferred out of the original department because of illegal information, and I have never been in contact with the teacher since, but I heard that the teacher has reached the point of going crazy about reporting on the gang. Actually, I deliberately gave you information to get myself out of that department, and I didn't want to get caught on fire at that time, so I deliberately escaped from that department. Shortly after I left that department, the teacher resigned and disappeared with all his investigations without saying hello to anyone. I never saw the teacher again. Until a while ago I heard that the teacher had died of an overdose of drugs. ”

"So you're not taking this commission? Because of your guilt, you feel that you didn't remind and stop the teacher from continuing the investigation in order to protect yourself? I vaguely heard Zheng Min's choked voice.

Actually, I wasn't accusing her, if it were me, I might have done the same, and at that time, Zheng Min was trying to motivate me to protect me from being hurt by the outside world. Thinking like this, I slowed down my tone and apologized to Zheng Min.

"No, I actually gave our contact information to the client. You're right, I'm guilty that I didn't pull the teacher back then. I know the teacher's personality, although you may be said to be arbitrary or something, but I know that the teacher will not touch those things that should not be touched, honest and measured, distinguishing between right and wrong, and being a decent person, and will never die of drug abuse. Originally, I was looking into this matter privately. This time, Su Baijia disappeared, and I felt that it was inseparable from the death of the teacher, and in order to compensate for the guilt in my heart, I decided to take the commission down anyway. And I checked Su Baijia and knew that her cousin was your student. I also know that you will not hesitate to entrust it because of your learning. You're the only person I trust to be innocent, so I'm going to let you take this commission anyway. So, be sure to help me find that child, please. Zheng Min's voice has already put on a crying tone, and it is soft and weak, so I can't bear to refuse.

"I'm not sure to prove your teacher's innocence, but I promise I'll find the kid." Now there is no evidence of his teacher's innocence, even if emotions make me believe Zheng Min's words, but reason tells me that I can only believe the evidence.

Zheng Min didn't speak, but her first words inspired me: "Zheng Min, when was the accident that your teacher was aiming for?" ”

"Before you had leg bone surgery, about 4 years ago?" Zheng Min replied a little uncertainly.

I felt that the thought in my head was getting clearer and clearer, and I restrained my faster and faster breathing, and asked anxiously, "Can you help me find out when Ma Yongdi died before the plane took off?" Locals, the hukou should be here in the North District, and the age is in the mid-50s. ”

Zheng Min let out an "ah", obviously not understanding my intentions, but she still quickly helped me find out his news, but to my surprise, all eligible Ma Yongdi was still alive, but he was also taken to the hospital when I was hospitalized four years ago.

"He's helping me look up his son's information." I said anxiously, I heard Zheng Min's colleague calling to her, and I knew she was about to get on the plane.

"His son died, the same day he was hospitalized, from gang fighting. His son has a history of drug abuse. Zheng Min quickly helped me find out, and I heard her dragging her luggage towards the hatch.

I calmed down and said, "Zheng Min, thank you for the information, my mind is still a little confused, but I can tell you for sure that Mr. Su inadvertently witnessed the injury of this Mr. Ma Yongdi and the death of his son at that time. ”

Zheng Min inhaled because she was surprised on the phone, she probably didn't know what to say for a while because of the impact of receiving the news, and she kept hesitating "this, this".

"Zheng Min, while the plane didn't take off, help me find the follow-up report of the gang fight, I want to know if his son died?" With Zheng Min sitting in the seat of the plane, I also managed to run out of the staff housing area, successfully took a taxi, and drove towards Ah Lian's café.

When it came to the headset that Zheng Min's plane had closed the door and asked them to watch an electronic device, Zheng Min finally spoke: "Whew, all the information has been sent to your mailbox, for the time being, I see that only one person died in that fight." ”

Sure enough, just like I just thought, now all the timelines correspond, although it is really unrighteous to leave Wei Kai alone in that dangerous place, but I still have more important things to solve, the source of everything. This is a well-arranged chess game, it is a chess game that Ma Yongdi and Su Jin have already arranged, when Su Jin died, this game of chess has already begun, it doesn't matter if the client is us or someone else, we are all chess pieces in their hands, this game of chess to the end, no matter whether you win or lose, it is always the chess pieces that are sacrificed, not the layout of the chess players. It's just that halfway through the game, a cat suddenly jumped up on the chessboard, disrupting the pieces on the board, and the planned chess path had to be restarted because of this small accident. But it was also because of this accident that the player saw another hope, so he replayed the game with the scattered pieces on the board, and this time he was convinced that he would win. The accident that broke the layout was Su Baijia's disappearance.

I'm sure Su Baijia should be ignorant of everything, of course, no one treated him as a pawn in the first place, and even his father, the deceased chess player in this game, should have tried his best to get his son away from this game, but he underestimated his son's determination to avenge his father. So his son was forced into the game when he was looking for the truth about his father's death, and became a pawn from accident. However, this chess piece is particularly important, and this accident turned into the king chess in the hands of the chess player. He was waiting for the best opportunity to make this move, but I didn't want to give him that chance, and after discovering his idea, I thought: it's a shame he can't be a chess player this time.
