Chapter 214: Raised
Hotel Lisboa, Macau, with luxury suites
"Assistant Bai, your actions just now are completely reckless, once the kidnappers are angry, they are likely to tear up the ticket, Melissa wants to have three long and two short, I won't just forget it!" Lawyer Guan lowered his voice and bared his teeth at Bai Suzhen, this is in Jiang Yelin's room 1616, so even if this thing can't help rushing over, he really doesn't dare to shout loudly.
"Lawyer Guan, I understand your feelings as a hostage's family, but your battlefield is in court debate, I have more experience in dealing with kidnapping cases than you and your people, if the kidnappers can't prove that the hostages are safe and sound, my boss can't pay the ransom at all, on the other hand, the kidnappers don't get the ransom for a day, and the hostages are safer!"
Bai Suzhen has now gradually entered the state of solving the case by the third-level police inspector leading the task force, and her words are reasonable and well-founded, and she will not give an inch, making the face of a Portuguese barrister swelling red, rubbing her hands and gritting her teeth but not knowing how to vent, and finally slammed it on the bar, almost knocking several cups to the marble living room floor.
The lord's personal driver and bodyguard still did not have permission to enter Jiang Yelin's room at this time, so he could only stay in the monitoring room of room 1618 next door with Inspector Liang's people, of course, if Guan Dazhuang needed to temporarily hire a few bodyguards from Haojiang Security Company to strengthen his defense, the problem was that although the kidnappers kidnapped his baby daughter, the target of blackmail was the young master of Maple Leaf who won a reputation in Lisboa Casino.
This strange situation makes Barrister Guan a bit of a tiger bite and doesn't know how to start, if you get rid of this young master of Maple Leaf Country Ye and his beautiful but ruthless assistant, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating at that time, and the kidnappers will target this nouveau riche like Ye Gongzi to my Guan family, and not only will the ransom not be 30 million Hong Kong dollars.
Melissa, as her own baby daughter, fell into the hands of the kidnappers as a hostage, and the kidnappers may think that this hostage is more strange and livable, so that the probability of the hostage's release may not rise but fall, and the dilemma is almost the current situation of Barrister Guan, compared to the Inspector Liang who was borrowed from the police and Brother Qian, the security director of SJM, are more optimistic about the response of this white assistant when dealing with the kidnappers.
The good news is that the blackmailed object has prepared a ransom of 30 million cash and is ready to trade at any time, the bad news is that the other party must know that the hostage is safe, and the hostage must be asked to talk to this side, otherwise there is no need to talk!
If I changed lawyer Guan or Inspector Liang and Brother Qian, I am afraid that I would not dare to treat the kidnappers with such a tough attitude, but this beautiful assistant who is heroic and cool is indeed a bit unexpected, in her mind, it seems that the safety of her boss's 30 million Hong Kong dollars is more important than the life of the hostage......
"Lawyer Guan, I also thought that Su Su had done a bit too much at first, but then I thought about it, don't you have to come and go to fool each other when talking about business in the mall, the more we worry about the safety of the hostages, the more we can't show it in front of the kidnappers, after all, the kidnappers are now blackmailing me as the boss, and the hostages are just the private lawyers I hired, in other words, some guys who don't go on the road may see money as more important than the safety of any private lawyer, maybe they won't agree to the excessive demand of 30 million Hong Kong dollars to ransom people, right?"
Jiang Yelin didn't know if he was comforting the barrister or threatening him not to be too impulsive, and he took out 30 million Hong Kong dollars to ransom people without frowning in this matter. Brother hired your girl as a private lawyer for a year, and it will cost 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, not the boss will spend a lot of money for the newly hired employees, and the ransom of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars will be smashed out, which is likely to be a hammer deal for nothing!
"That being said, what now? The public phone booth used by the kidnappers went to the empty building, and they didn't catch any clues from the other party at all, what should I do now? Will Melissa have already ...... "Barrister Guan was in tears at this time, and he almost cried out in a gaffe, fortunately, there were only lawyers and Jiang Yelin Bai Suzhen in this suite, and this thing still remembered to cover his microphone to prevent the choked voice from being transmitted to the next suite through the guò headset intercom system.
In fact, the old man of Portuguese and foreigners has always paid attention to his appearance, but who encounters a big case of kidnapping and ransom of his baby daughter, if he can be calm, he is afraid that he is really a cold-blooded animal to do it!
"Inspector Liang, please send the phone number of room 1616 to your side, and we will go there and wait for the kidnapper's call!" Boss, come with me! Bai Suzhen didn't want to run on both sides, she was a little too cautious before looking at it at present, the kidnappers should not have eyeliner to the Lisboa Hotel, not to mention that this floor is now guarded by the hotel security guards and the Takagi brothers, and the idlers can't get in at all.
Bai Suzhen now understands that the kidnappers are actually only staring at the lobby on the ground floor of the Lisboa, and the other party's arrangement is not so leaky, or that the other party's tentacles are not long enough, maybe it is because of the rush of time, or maybe the original object of blackmail is just like her own judgment, it is not Ye Gongzi from Maple Leaf Country at all, but Guan Barrister, a well-known successful and wealthy barrister in Macau.
Jiang Yelin had been waiting alone in room 1616 for a long time, and at this time, he accompanied Barrister Guan to room 1618 with this Bai Suzhen, which could be regarded as an eye-opener, the table in the living room was lined up, four laptops plus a lot of unnamed surveillance and recording equipment, and three men and two women were obviously well-trained police officers.
"This is my boss, this is Inspector Liang, do some personal things for Lawyer Guan, this is Brother Qian, the director of security, the time is a little short, so I hurried up and said, Inspector Liang, please contact the Guò Telecom Company, mark the location and number of the public phone booths within 500 meters around Lisboa from the map, Lawyer Guan, Director Qian, I need you to mobilize resources, each of the above public phone booths will send someone to keep an eye on it, once the kidnappers call again, at least we know the physical characteristics and appearance of the other party, so that the mobile team can track and pursue!"
"No problem, I'm afraid that there will be not enough manpower, Macau is a small place, and there is a public telephone booth on the side of the road about one or two hundred meters away......" Inspector Liang felt that although Bai Suzhen's method was stupid, it was a good way, and he promised to contact his subordinates stationed in the telecom.
Here, Lawyer Guan and Brother Qian glanced at each other, and Lawyer Guan stomped his feet and said, "Old Qian, you go and arrange, you have to be tight-mouthed and reliable, don't we haven't let people out yet, the kidnappers know our arrangement first, the labor fee is not a problem, everyone will give 500 afterwards, and 5000 if the kidnapper's traces are found!" ”
"Money is not a problem, don't worry, I'll arrange it......" Brother Qian nodded, turned around and made a call, Inspector Liang had already turned back, "The marked map can be faxed over soon, about ten minutes!" ”
Jiang Yelin looked at the large map hanging on the whiteboard at this moment, pointed to the first public telephone booth marked on it, and said, "Is this the public phone booth that the kidnappers used just now?" Can I find a monitoring probe nearby? This public phone booth is in front of the bank......"
The so-called word woke up the dreamer, Barrister Guan and Brother Qian hadn't come back to their senses, Bai Suzhen and Inspector Liang both opened their eyes wide, the two glanced at each other, Inspector Liang hurriedly said, "It's better to call up the bank's monitoring, or my people come forward, if it's the monitoring of the casino, then you have to work Brother Qian's big driver......"
"Then do it, please Mr. Liang, Director Qian, can you also call up the probe video near the casino lobby, although the public phone booth for calling is across the road, but it is not ruled out that the kidnappers have stayed at the entrance of Lisboa!"
As soon as Bai Suzhen said this, Brother Qian also came back to his senses, nodded and said, I asked someone to adjust the video, and the barrister Guan next to him patted him on the shoulder and said, "Transfer a few video recorders and video tapes to send them over, I'm afraid that time will be in a hurry to find a needle in a haystack, and I don't know when the results will ......."
While talking, the people in the entire 1618 suite were busy, Brother Qian and Inspector Liang each walked into a room and began to make phone calls, and there were only Inspector Liang's subordinates who were responsible for monitoring the phone in the living room, Bai Suzhen glanced at her boss and quipped, "What's the matter, have you found some of the original feelings?" Boss, what kind of antique dealer are you really talented, I think you should be a detective of the serious crime team directly! ”
Jiang Yelin grinned, remembering the first time the two met, in the pre-trial room, a beautiful police inspector and a suspect, fighting each other, it has only been a few months, as if a century has passed, if it is said that it is his strong point in antiques and making money, then in the face of the big case of kidnapping and extortion, Bai Suzhen, a beautiful police inspector, really has more materials than herself, at least this general's demeanor is better than everyone else.
At this time, the phone rang suddenly, and the people in the entire suite monitoring room were shocked, Inspector Liang and Brother Qian just finished the phone call and left the room, and a plainclothes subordinate of Inspector Liang who was in charge of monitoring whispered, "It's a call to Mr. Ye's room at 1616 next door, do you want to answer it?!" ”
"I'll pick it up! Don't make a sound, everybody! Bai Suzhen paused, Kata picked up the phone, and the voice of the kidnapper who used a voice changer came from the microphone.
"Call the hostages to confirm that it's okay, but the ransom must be raised to 50 million! Give you half an hour to raise cash, as punishment for the price you just sent someone to track me! If I find out that you are not honest behind your back, wait to collect the corpses of the hostages! Wait for me to call in half an hour! ”
This time, the kidnapper finished speaking in one breath, and hung up the phone directly without waiting for Bai Suzhen to answer, and everyone in the entire monitoring room was stunned, the kidnapper actually reacted so quickly, this guy is not easy to deal with!
