"How many people are in the car?" Xie Yuankui asked, and he didn't care about wiping the sweat on his forehead. The kidnapper's trick caught him off guard, and only by being highly vigilant and quickly adjusting the plan could he turn the situation around.

"There are sixteen students, all of whom are in the first class of the second grade, and there are seventeen plus drivers."

"Each team keeps up with me, and I must not lose it!"

There was no time to explain to He Zhanting, so he hurriedly dispatched people to track the school bus from different directions.

Follow the car, outflank, but not force to stop. The severity of the incident has gone beyond a simple kidnapping case, and if there is a head-on confrontation with the kidnappers, the safety of a carload of children cannot be guaranteed – which could well become an even worse public safety incident.

"What should I do?" He Zhanting was so anxious that he circled around the command center. The money was given, and he didn't know He Chong's whereabouts, which added a sense of despair to his endless suffering.

"Calm down, Mr. He, it's still under control."

"What do you have, who do I want?" He couldn't help but be furious.

Seeing that Xie Yuankui was also polite to him, the people in the command center did not dare to be rash and remained silent.

"You believe me, it's not difficult to get money, but it's not so easy to escape from Lucheng. They will not move hostages until the goal is achieved, and the hostages are the last weight and the condition of negotiation. ”

"That's my son, not a weight!" He Zhanting roared like crazy, "I just want him to be safe and sound, and I don't care about anything else." You can arrest someone, but you can't take that risk until you get Chong'er out! ”

"I know that keeping hostages safe is also our bottom line, and we won't act rashly. It's just that the gang is too cunning, and it's impossible to determine if there are any of them in the car. ”

"Bastard, how can you be sure, there is an adult driver in the car, and it is him! Could it be that those students are also kidnappers! ”

"You sit down for a while, forgive me for not having time to talk to you for the time being, time waits for no one." Xie Yuankui glanced at the secretary, and the secretary hurriedly carried He Zhanting to the sofa to rest.

At this point, He Zhanting no longer trusts the police's capabilities. He was very helpless, this was almost the most failed moment of his life, and before he knew it, everyone and money were in the hands of the kidnappers, and he felt that he had no chance of winning.

Of course, Xie Yuankui also realized that no matter how categorical he was, he would be up and down in his heart.

If something happens to the hostage, not only will he not be able to explain to the He family, but he will also be unable to explain to his superiors. And that's not the worst thing, it's the worst thing is that the situation is unmanageable, and the slightest mistake can turn into a public safety incident. If there are really unimaginable consequences, he will not want to continue to wear this official hat.

"Listen to the teams, they are not allowed to come without my instructions. The kidnappers had already found out that we were following, otherwise they would not have chosen the school bus as cover. A cart of children's lives are all in your hands, and if anything goes wrong, everyone can't finish eating and walking. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

"Headquarters Headquarters ......"

"Team Five."

"The target is slowing down, ready to pull to the right."

"The driver is seriously suspicious, and you are not allowed to fire unless he gets out of the car."

After the school bus drove 500 meters into Huanglin Street, it turned on the right turn signal and stopped on the side of the road. There was a woman who looked like a housewife standing on the side of the street, stretching her neck to greet her, waving excitedly.

The car braked steadily, and a girl got out of it, and the housewife hurriedly caught her and nodded at the driver in thanks. As soon as the bus door closed, the school bus continued to move forward, and a criminal policeman from the fifth team ran towards the mother and daughter without hesitation.

He couldn't help but snatch the little girl's schoolbag to check it, and the housewife, who was a mother, lost her face and held the child in her arms.

The bag is full of daily necessities, stationery boxes, books, drinking glasses, lunch boxes, and there is nothing suspicious.

He didn't say anything, quickly jumped into the car and continued to chase after his colleagues. The girl was so frightened that she cried, and her mother was also terrified.

In this way, the school bus dropped off the arriving students all the way, and each time they got down, the criminal police who followed them checked one, but they never found anyone with dollars in their bags. Their actions exposed the tensions to the public, and some of the parents who picked up the students realized that something was wrong and rushed to call the school.

The command center contacted the school as early as the departure of the school bus.

The school admitted that the school bus was a dedicated bus for the school to pick up and drop off students, but it was not operated by the school itself, but was contracted by another external service company. The company provides the car and driver, performs the pick-up and drop-off tasks, and the school settles the payment in the form of an annual fee.

The police call caused the principal to be confused, not only because the school bus was involved in the kidnapping case, but also because the company that provided the vehicle lacked qualifications, and once the accident occurred, it would lead to the fact that Beanstalk Primary School violated the "School Bus Operation Regulations" of the Education Commission.

After some discussion, the police rejected their proposal to notify the parents – and it was probably the best way to let the incident unfold in its daily state.

The police quickly transmitted the driver's unclear facial features captured in the surveillance video to the school and asked them to confirm with the service company. The result was that the driver was indeed a full-time employee of the company, with a service period of more than 32 months, and all the files should be complete. Xie Yuankui hurriedly sent someone to track down his resume to see if he had a criminal record.

On the other side, the criminal police who followed the car watched the carload of students get out of the car one by one unharmed, and never found that the student's bag contained the ransom. But they are glad that every student who goes down means that another person is out of danger.

The students who were searched all said that there was nothing unusual on the bus, and everyone rode home as usual, talking and laughing along the way. The driver is also familiar to them, and he is engrossed in driving without unusual behavior throughout the whole process. Each of them had their class name on their bag, which meant that the unlabeled bag with the dollar was still in the car.

At 5:45 p.m., the traffic congestion in the evening rush hour and the darkening sky made it more difficult for the police to act.

At this time, the principal called and said that according to the daily route, the last stop of the school bus will stop at the Murray community on Tiandeng North Road, and when the last student gets off the bus, it will turn back to the service company.

After getting the news, Xie Yuankui hurriedly dispatched the special police to quickly deploy and control it, and set up a sniper in the favorable terrain at the scene.

Sure enough, after successfully delivering the fifteen students to their destinations one by one, the school bus stopped at the main entrance of the Murray community. The five cars that were clenching on it also surrounded it from front to back, left and right.

At this time, there was no need to hide it anymore, the criminal policemen were holding their breath, the bullets were loaded, and they stared at the car intently, just waiting for the driver to appear. The snipers who were ambushed on the hidden vantage points were also fully engrossed, focusing on the car doors.

The door opened, and the last student got out of the car, staring at the heavily armed policemen. His parents didn't come to pick him up, otherwise, he would have fainted on the spot when he saw such a battle.

Hiding their guns behind them, the three detectives cautiously walked towards the student and quickly took him to safety when they were just one step away from him.

They searched the bag carefully, but found nothing.

"Who else is in the car?"

"And Uncle Driver." The student replied, looking overwhelmed.

"Let's go back."

Under cover, the students ran into the community.

It was exactly six o'clock.

……

The music in Meisha Coffee Shop suddenly switched to a familiar birthday song, and the bartender brought a cake with candles to the table, Qin Luo was confused.

"Happy birthday, sir." The bartender said sweetly, with a blessed smile on his face, "This is a gift from your friend." ”

"Friends?"

"Yes, he said it's your birthday...... You were born at six o'clock in the evening, and he asked us to present the cake on time. ”

"What about him? My friend...... Where are the people? Qin Luo had a bad premonition and immediately got up.

"To be precise, we don't know each other, your friend called to make a reservation, and the fee was also paid by transfer."

"Are you mistaken, it's not my birthday."

"You're Mr. He, aren't you?"

Although he was surprised, Qin Luo didn't have time to think about it, so he opened his mouth wide and nodded.

"That's right, your friend said you'd come in time and sit in the seat he booked for you." The waiter was about to leave, leaving him in the same place and puzzled.

"Oh yes, I almost forgot." Suddenly, the waiter turned back with a hint of apology on his face, "He also specially asked us to tell you that the ticket he asked for was gone, he felt very sorry, and I hope you will forgive me." ”

All this was not only heard in Qin Luo's ears, but also in the ears of Xie Yuankui on the other end of the walkie-talkie. Without waiting for him to give instructions, Qin Luo had already taken out the phone.

He subconsciously looked back at He Zhanting, who was pasting the ringing headphones to his face, and he closed his eyes in despair.

Qin Luo said on the phone with a crying voice: "Master, young master, he ......"

He Zhanting fainted, and the private doctor who had been waiting by his side hurriedly rescued, resuscitated the heart, and supplemented oxygen and infusion.

At the moment, he couldn't take care of him, and Xie Yuankui turned his attention back to the Morry community. The driver is highly suspicious, and it is also the last clue to break through the case.

"Take it!" As soon as he gave the order, the criminal police immediately surrounded the school bus.

"Listen, you're surrounded!" The police officer in charge of the negotiation hid his body behind the car, and his voice was sonorous and majestic, very shocking, "Put down your weapons, raise your hands and walk out slowly." Don't try to resist senselessly, you can't escape! ”

As soon as the words fell, the school bus turned off and the scene was quiet.

Looking at it again, the periphery was full of onlookers, and everyone didn't know what was going on, but the imminent tension made them shut up and didn't dare to come out.

It must be * in the car, outlaws, everyone thinks so, scared and curious.

Two officers began to widen the cordon towards the rear, expelling onlookers to a safe distance.

The doors of the school bus opened, and everyone raised their hearts to their throats. Dozens of guns, long and short, all aimed at the driver who was about to get out of the car.

The driver walked down with his hands raised and trembling, his crotch wet.

"Put your head in your hands and squat!"

He obediently did so, holding his head and squatting down.

When it was too late, the five leading criminal policemen threw him to the ground, put him in handcuffs and a mask, and quickly took him away from the scene.

The rest of the detectives got into the car to search, and the bag containing the dollar was long gone......

Xie Yuankui finally collapsed in his chair. He really wanted to snatch the oxygen mask tied to He Zhanting's nose and inhale it twice, because the feeling of anxiety and weakness had permeated his whole body.
