About fifteen minutes, Zhou Jindong walked into Huang Wenlin's office. Lin Xi looked at the other party's early thirties, nearly 1.85 meters tall, the whole person was full of energy, his eyes were bright, and he was a good hand at first glance.

Huang Wenlin didn't explain much, just said that Lin Xi wanted to ask him for help with something, and let him just listen to the other party's request.

Although Zhou Jindong was very strange about Huang Wenlin's arrangement, as a policeman, he was used to obeying orders, so he didn't ask much, and followed Lin Xi out of the door of the director's office.

After Lin Xi and Zhou Jindong left the Public Security Bureau, they found a small restaurant and sat down. Lin Xi gave an introduction to the ins and outs of the matter, especially the scene in Dongsheng Furniture Store before.

After listening to Lin Xi's introduction, Zhou Jindong frowned and said in a low voice: "You mean to say that this matter may have something to do with Fuleju Furniture City?" ”

Lin Xi saw that the other party understood what he meant, so naturally it was inconvenient to be too straightforward, he glanced at Zhou Jindong and said: "Officer Zhou, I just made an inference based on what I saw in front of me, of course, this is just an inference, and there is no evidence, otherwise, the Yellow Bureau would not have made such an arrangement." ”

After Zhou Jindong heard this, a smile appeared on his face. Before this, because Lin Xi was too young, he couldn't trust this young man, and he even felt that the director arranged for him to help the other party, just to take care of the face of the county magistrate's son, and now it seems that this should not be the case.

"Lin Xi, I already know what happened, I think so." Zhou Jindong said, "I think that whether this matter has anything to do with Fuleju can be ignored for the time being, as long as the kidnapping is implemented, then the next work will be easy to handle." ”

After Lin Xi heard this, he nodded, it was indeed the case. The top priority now is to confirm that Dongsheng's boss, He Shengqiang, has been kidnapped, so that the police can intervene and other things will be much simpler.

"Now that the crux of the problem has been found, let's eat it quickly, and then go directly to the Dongsheng furniture store, as long as the kidnappers call again, then this matter will be easy to do." Zhou Jindong said, reaching out and dragging the noodles brought by the waiter and eating them in a big bite.

After the two finished eating, they immediately rushed to Dongsheng. Lin Xi also deliberately brought a bowl to He Xuan, at this time her heart must be a mess, where do she have the heart to make food.

When they arrived at Tomori, it was already past seven o'clock, but because of the long days in summer, it was not dark, but the gate of Tomori was already closed. He Xuan learned that it was Lin Xi who came over, so he cautiously opened the door. When she saw Zhou Jindong, she was stunned at first, but then invited them in.

After He Xuan finished eating noodles, he sat in front of the telephone with Lin Xi and Zhou Jindong, and after learning that Zhou Jindong was a policeman, the look on He Xuan's face became obviously uneasy.

Seeing this, Lin Xi whispered to him: "It's okay, on the way we came, Brother Zhou took a closer look and didn't find anyone following, and besides, he was wearing civilian clothes, so no one could see his identity." ”

After He Xuan heard this, the string that was tight in his heart suddenly loosened. She also didn't know why she trusted the teenager in front of her so much after just a few hours of dating. It's a bit illogical, but that's exactly what she thinks in her heart, and it's really weird.

The three of them waited until nine o'clock, and the phone bell never rang. Lin Xi refilled Zhou Jindong's cup with water, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Zhou, I'm really sorry to let you follow here!" ”

After Zhou Jindong heard this, he said with a smile: "It's okay, it's only nine o'clock now, where is this going, we sometimes squat in the pit in order to catch criminals, and a squat can be several days, but the two of you, aren't you a little overwhelmed, stand up and move?" ”

After He Xuan and Lin Xi heard this, they shook their heads together.

After about ten minutes, He Xuan was just about to get up to boil the kettle of water, when the phone suddenly rang urgently. Even though she had been expecting a phone call to come in, she was a little flustered when she actually heard the bell ring.

Seeing this, Lin Xi stepped forward, patted He Xuan's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, with me and Brother Zhou here, how do you usually pick it up, how do you pick it up now!" ”

He Xuan hummed lightly, let out a sigh, then reached out and pressed the hands-free button, and asked cautiously, "Hey, may I ask, who are you looking for?" ”

"I'll just look for you, Miss He, are you ready for the money? Our brother is a little impatient. A man's thick voice came from the phone.

Although the human voice will change a lot through the propagation of radio waves, when Lin Xi heard this voice, he immediately decided that he must have heard this voice somewhere.

After confirming the identity of the other party, He Xuan's heart settled down, and she replied: "Before ten o'clock tomorrow, I will definitely prepare 50,000 yuan, don't worry, but before that, I have to hear my brother's voice first, otherwise, not only will I not trade with you, but I will also notify the police directly." ”

This is the idea that Lin Xi and Zhou Jindong helped He Xuan before, in order to prevent the other party from spreading suspicions, he Shengqiang's voice must be heard, otherwise, he will never talk to the other party about anything else.

He Xuan's request was obviously unexpected by the other party, and there was a voice on the phone, needless to say, there must be more than one person on the other party, who is discussing this matter in a whisper!

After a while, the male voice that spoke before sounded again, Okay, Miss He, just as you said, I'll let you listen to Mr. He's voice, but the other person is not here, I can only play you a recording.

After saying this, I only heard a snap on the phone, and He Shengqiang's voice rang.

In the recording, He Shengqiang seems to be talking about business with others, and from his words, he can't hear anything wrong, which looks like he has been kidnapped, but like he is meeting a customer and is bargaining for a certain business!

When Lin Xi and Zhou Jindong heard this voice, they were very puzzled, and the two looked at each other, not knowing what happened to He Shengqiang.

The recording lasted about half a minute, and then the male voice said, "Miss He, we have met your request, and now we also want to make a request, I hope you can also agree." Since Mr. He has spent a lot of time here, the 50,000 yuan mentioned before is too little, and now we officially inform you that before 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, 80,000 yuan will be ready, and we will contact you again at that time. ”

Although He Xuan protested loudly, the other party ignored it and hung up the phone directly.
