Without a Trace 5

The midday sun shines through the windows on the floor, reflecting the Tyndall effect. The world outside the window is full of noise, traffic, and people are busy doing a lot of things, human voices, horns, stereos, roars...... Echoing in my ears, never stopping.

On the contrary, the world inside the window, extra quiet, will also be heard if a pin falls on the ground at this moment.

Li Muchuan listened quietly to Fang Bin talking about the origin of the Black Tiger's forced debts, he didn't expect that Fang Bin would actually go to borrow usury, he was also a college student, so he took such a risk and forced himself into a desperate situation. But if it weren't for Fang Bin having no other way, he wouldn't have come to this point.

If it was him, Li Muchuan didn't know if he would make the same choice as Fang Bin.

"So in the end, you still used that software?"

"Hmm" Fang Bin nodded weakly, as if something had instantly drained all his strength, and at the moment it was just a shell sitting on the sofa.

"I can't help it, Ogawa! You've also seen what the Black Tiger might do if he doesn't pay it back! I also know that thing can be a scam, but someone is still making money, as long as I am careful, it will be fine! ”

Fang Bin in front of him seemed to be arguing about something, trying his best to defend himself, as if only Li Muchuan could understand his difficulties.

Li Muchuan didn't continue Fang Bin's words, but asked, "What about the result?" ”

"The result?" Fang Bin sneered, it was more accurate to ridicule, but the object of ridicule was not others, but himself.

"As a result, if I make money, can I still be chased by the black tiger like I am now! I thought I could control myself and withdraw immediately when I made money, but Xiaochuan, no one can control that situation, I always want to withdraw if I make a little more, and withdraw if I make a little more, what is the result? As a result, one day I found out that I had 0 money in my account! ”

If these pitiful words were told by someone else, Li Muchuan might still feel that he was pitiful, but these words came from Fang Bin's mouth, and he only felt that he deserved it.

The greedy will be punished in the end.

"Did you call the police?"

"Calling the police didn't help, the police told me that I was the seventh person to call the police this month and say that I was deceived, and it was all this software. They only said that they would try their best to solve the case, so I don't have to worry. But I'm not a fool, the liar doesn't know where to hide for a long time, and this money is useless. ”

Fang Bin, who spoke, was like a deflated ball, lifeless, not at all like yesterday's doctor.

"The money is gone, only the clinic is left to support it, but fortunately, I have accumulated a lot in the early stage, and the business has not been affected, and it is slowly improving. I estimate that even if I can't get back the money I was cheated of, I can make a comeback by relying on the clinic. ”

His eyes flashed with light, full of youth, and at that moment, Li Muchuan seemed to see Fang Bin who had been in the sand pit when he was a child.

Before the light could continue to flicker, it was extinguished, like a white horse passing through a gap.

"But the black tiger can't wait, he comes to me every once in a while to make trouble, or if you are here today, I don't know what the black tiger will do to me."

Fang Bin's voice trembled a little, and he could see what the black tiger must have done to Fang Bin before to make him so afraid of a person.

Even though it was noon in summer, Fang Bin couldn't help but shudder, it seemed that he must have thought of the black tiger's previous intimidation and threats to him.

Stand up, walk to the window, and let your body be bathed in sunlight to warm up. Looking at the world outside the window, are the people outside all carefree, I really envy them.

"Who? Can't you let me go! ”

Fang Bin suddenly opened the window and shouted hysterically in a certain direction outside.

Li Muchuan thought that Fang Bin was just releasing his long-suppressed emotions, but he noticed that Fang Bin's eyes were looking downstairs, as if he was looking at something. He walked to Fang Bin's side, followed the direction of Fang Bin's eyes, and saw a man in black standing in the shade of the tree downstairs, holding a telescope in his hand.

At this moment, Fang Bin did not have the previous sense of cowardice, but was in a fearless state, gritting his teeth and shouting outside: "You tell the black tiger, Lao Tzu is not afraid, come on, if you want money, you will die!" ”

The man in black downstairs lowered his cap and covered his face, and with Fang Bin's house on the fifth floor, the two of them couldn't see the face of the man in black at all.

The man in black put away his binoculars and turned around and walked away quickly.

After a roar, Fang Bin's strength seemed to run out, and he slipped down the window and fell to the floor, slumped down.

Li Muchuan squatted beside him and asked, "How do you know that person is a Black Tiger person?" ”

"Definitely, there are still many junior brothers under the Black Tiger, and there will be one or two battle formations when they are forced to pay debts a few times. Today, the black tiger was deflated by you, and the black tiger will definitely not give up, and sent the little brother to watch us, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on us. ”

Li Muchuan was silent, stood up, returned to the window, looked at the direction where the man in black had gone, and spoke, as if he was talking to the other party, as if he was saying to himself.

"Don't worry, I won't let him do anything to you."

On the way to work, Fang Bin kept thinking about Lin Han, it was a pity that he didn't fulfill his appointment this week. The work of two people is destined to cause the two to get together less and leave more, and to separate the two places in a city.

It's not that Fang Bin doesn't want to live with Lin Han, the two of them have been together for more than two years, and if they go deeper, they will get married, every time Fang Bin brings up the topic of living together, Lin Han always interrupts him strongly, telling Fang Bin not to think about it, it is not okay before getting married.

After a few times, Fang Bin no longer mentioned the idea of cohabitation.

Fang Bin opened the itinerary on his mobile phone in the car, and found that the patients at noon were not very full, and there was just a gap to take time to have lunch with Lin Han, which could be regarded as making up for the mistake of not having a date on Saturday.

dialed Lin Han's phone, only a busy tone came from the microphone, no one answered the phone, and was finally told by an emotionless announcer voice that no one answered.

Maybe Lin Han is on his way.

Fang Bin had long been accustomed to Lin Han not answering the phone. Meetings, proposals, busy work will not answer the phone, think about helpless, but why not like this, the mobile phone is silent during the visit, can only intermittently see if there are access calls and notifications.

Just go straight to it. The clinic is also a 20-minute drive from Lin Han's company.

The morning was not as busy as before, there were few vehicles, and the road conditions were very good, Fang Bin thought how good it would be if every day was like this.

I don't know what Ogawa will do today.

He asked Li Muchuan what he was going to do next, but Li Muchuan just said that he would stay here for a few days and would not bother him. But what was the specific matter, Li Muchuan was not ready to tell Fang Bin, whenever Fang Bin asked, Li Muchuan always said that he didn't know the best.

How can you say that Li Muchuan is also a fugitive, if he is arrested in his own home, will he also be guilty of harboring?

A sudden brake stopped in front of the red light at the intersection, Fang Bin, who was stunned just now, shook his head, how could he think so much about Xiaochuan, he has been fine for so many years, he will be fine.

Will it really be okay? Fang Bin had a question mark in his heart.

When he arrived at the clinic, he immediately entered the working state, spent the morning busily, picked up his mobile phone, and found that it was half past eleven, so he immediately changed his clothes and drove to the direction of Lin Han's company.

The smoothness of the road made Fang Bin feel good, turned on the stereo in the car, shook his head and shook his head to the rhythm, obviously without the decadent appearance of yesterday. Fang Bin, who has been in the business for many years, has already cultivated a good attitude, he can vent hysterically yesterday and play happily today.

If you don't have some psychological adjustment ability, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything big.

This is what Fang Youwei told himself, no matter what happens, don't panic, everything has a solution.

Fang Bin sent Lin Han to work, and parked the car in the underground garage of the company building with ease, during which he called Lin Han again, but no one answered. Fang Bin thought that even if he was busy, he should be able to answer the phone from morning to noon, right?

With doubts in his mind, Fang Bin took the elevator and pressed the floor where Lin Han's company was located.

"Didn't you come?"

The girl at the front desk nodded, responding to Fang Bin's question. The girl at the front desk told Fang Bin that Lin Han hadn't come to the company today, of course, this is not a strange thing, for advertising companies, it was too late to work overtime a while ago, and it was common to come at noon or even afternoon the next day, so Lin Han didn't come to the company in the morning naturally wouldn't attract people's attention.

But Fang Bin had bad thoughts in his heart.

While walking quickly out of the company's gate, he called Lin Han's phone here, and as before, no one answered.

"Answer the phone, answer the phone."

Fang Bin dialed Lin Han's mobile phone over and over again, afraid that there would be no signal when taking the elevator, so he went downstairs directly through the fire escape, 8 stories high, and Fang Bin reached the floor of the underground garage before he came to his senses.

Your attention is all on the dialing interface of your phone.

"It's going to be fine, it's going to be okay." This sentence is more like Fang Bin's self-consolation and hypnosis to himself.

If he changed to normal and couldn't contact Lin Han for a long time, Fang Bin wouldn't think much about it, maybe he forgot to look at it when he put his phone aside. But today is different.

The black tiger had just been deflated by Li Muchuan, and he must have been angry in his heart and wanted to vent. Of course, he didn't know who Li Muchuan was, but he knew that Li Muchuan was Fang Bin's person, looking for revenge and seeking the master, and this anger still had to be sprinkled on Fang Bin's body.

But Li Muchuan was by Fang Bin's side, and the black tiger didn't dare to get started, so he ......

Thinking of this, Fang Bin cursed the black tiger in his heart, thinking that if Lin Han was missing a single hair, he would have to settle accounts with the black tiger even if he worked hard.

At this moment, the cowardice and fear before have long been thrown out of the clouds.

Walked quickly to the front of the car, drove the door and sat in the car, Fang Bin was still panting, and he had just gone downstairs in a hurry. In a panic, he fastened his seat belt, started the car and prepared to go to Lin Han's house.

Fang Bin was about to go out of the car through the rearview mirror, but as soon as his eyes looked at the rearview mirror, he found a figure in the mirror.

This figure, Fang Bin is very familiar, dressed in black and a black peaked cap, is the person who stood downstairs yesterday.

The man in black saw that Fang Bin had found him, deliberately pressed the brim of his hat, and walked briskly towards the exit of the garage.

"Don't run! Where is Lin Han! Say it quickly! Seeing that the man in black was leaving, Fang Bin was in a hurry, shouting, and chased him out by car.

The speed of the man in black was not slow, the fast walk was replaced by a sprint, and he was about to disappear from Fang Bin's sight in an instant. Limited by the environment of the garage, Fang Bin couldn't drive very fast, but fortunately, he could still see the figure of the man in black.

After driving out of the garage, Fang Bin immediately raised the speed of the car, ignoring the traffic speed limit, and drove quickly in the direction where the man in black ran away.

The distance between the car and the man in black is getting closer and closer, and no matter how fast the person is, he can't outrun the gas car. Through the windshield, Fang Bin saw the figure of the man in black clearly for the first time.

It's probably less than 1.8 meters tall, which is not strong, but it can run very fast. Other than that, a back doesn't look like much.

I always feel like I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while. At this moment, Fang Bin didn't have any other thoughts, he just wanted to rush towards the man in black.

At the corner of the intersection, the green light at the intersection was on, and the people who had been waiting for a long time were like red bulls after the gate was released, surging towards the side of the road, and the whole intersection was full of people for a while.

The man in black took the opportunity to blend into the crowd, and in an instant, Fang Bin couldn't find him, only a group of featureless people.

Fang Bin, who was blocked at the intersection, was annoyed and smashed the steering wheel angrily.

It's almost enough to catch up!

The sound of Dangdang's car window tapping came from his ears, and Fang Bin turned his head to look out of the car window, where a figure was blocking out, blocking the dazzling midday sun.

Due to the backlight, Fang Bin couldn't see who the person outside was for a while, and in a trance, he thought it was the man in black just now. When his eyes adjusted to the dazzling sunlight, he recognized it as Li Muchuan.

How could he be here? Fang Bin wondered.

Before Fang Bin could react, Li Muchuan opened the car door, got into the back row, and only said two words, "drive".

After leaving the congested intersection, the road is as smooth as before. While driving the car, Fang Bin looked back at Li Muchuan, wanting to speak again and again, not knowing how to say it.

"Where are you going?" It was Li Muchuan who spoke.

"Huh?"

"I said, where are you going before chasing people?"

Li Muchuan's words made Fang Bin wake up from the chaos just now, he was obviously running in the direction of Lin Han's house, but he kept chasing the man in black, forgetting his purpose.

"Go to Lin Han's house."

"Lin Han? What happened to Lin Han? ”

Li Muchuan didn't seem to know what was going on, so Fang Bin told Li Muchuan that she couldn't get through Lin Han's phone all the time, and she didn't go to the company, but met the man in black who monitored her yesterday in the basement, and told Li Muchuan a series of things.

Li Muchuan in the back row just nodded, but there was no response, but it seemed that Li Muchuan was obviously frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

"Why are you here?" Fang Bin expressed the doubts in his heart. First, he was very curious about how Li Muchuan knew his position, and second, Li Muchuan was not afraid of being arrested when he came out so grandly.

Li Muchuan, who was interrupted by Fang Bin's thinking, snorted, and then said to Fang Bin, who was driving, "After you left, the man in black appeared again." ”

"I'm watching TV in the living room, but I always feel strange. You also know that after hiding for so many years, I am very sensitive to the environment, and I can feel a little wind and grass. I looked out the window, and sure enough, the man in black from yesterday had reappeared downstairs, looking at me with binoculars. I immediately went downstairs and chased him out, and when I drove downstairs, the man in black was already ready to leave, so I followed him all the way here, and when I saw him hiding in the crowd, I couldn't continue to follow. That's where I happened to meet you. ”

After listening to Li Muchuan's answer, Fang Bin was still a little puzzled, "Why are you chasing the man in black?" ”

A cold snort came from the back row, as if he was sneering at Fang Bin's question, expressing how he could ask such a low-level question.

Li Muchuan still answered Fang Bin's question.

"He looked at the window with his binoculars and probably saw my face. I don't know his purpose, but it's still a dangerous thing. ”

Li Muchuan is a fugitive, and if someone sees and reports it, the result will only be arrested and put in prison. Of course, Fang Bin knew the stakes involved, and he understood why Li Muchuan would take the risk to chase him out.

"I don't know the identity of the other party, so I don't dare to act rashly, I can only follow the other party, hoping to find his residence and find out his purpose." Li Muchuan's tone was helpless, and what he did just now was more of a way.

"Are you sure the man in black is the man of the Black Tiger?"

"There will be no one else! He is the one who has an enmity with me! It's definitely the Black Tiger's people! There are a lot of thugs under the Black Tiger, and the last time I borrowed money to go to the factory workshop, I could see seven or eight, and the height of them was about the same as this person! ”

Fang Bin's answer was very certain.

If this person is a person from the Black Tiger, then in fact, it is a pure coincidence that the man in black is monitoring his residence today and accidentally sees Li Muchuan? The man in black originally intended to monitor his whereabouts, but he didn't expect to see Li Muchuan?

Thinking of this, Fang Bin secretly glanced in the rearview mirror and looked at Li Muchuan's face.

Li Muchuan's eyes were like eagle eyes, looking at the rearview mirror, and the two looked at each other.

Fang Bin immediately withdrew his eyes and looked at the road ahead of the driver in a proper manner.

Does Li Muchuan know?

The road was smooth, and Fang Bin's speed was also very fast, and in less than half an hour, they had already stopped downstairs at Lin Han's house.

Li Muchuan did not get out of the car, and he might get into trouble if he was seen or photographed by a nearby monitor. The residential building looks like a youth apartment, but the price is not cheap, presumably Lin Han will not earn much.

After Fang Bin parked the car, he immediately went downstairs and rushed towards the entrance of the residential building. Fang Bin had been here many times before, and the security guards here all recognized Fang Bin as the boyfriend of the resident here, so naturally they didn't stop him.

Lin Han lived on the 12th floor, and Fang Bin was waiting at the elevator door. The red numbers above kept flashing, arrogant and small, before Fang Bin felt that the elevator would soon stop on the first floor, and praised Lin Han for how fast the elevator in her house was. But now, every minute and second seems to be slowed down tenfold, and it is all torment.

The elevator door opened, and Fang Bin was the first to rush into the elevator, directly pressed the close button, and said sorry to the people outside who hadn't come in yet.

The people who were also waiting for the elevator saw Fang Bin selfishly closing the door and scolding him for being neurotic.

Fang Bin in the elevator couldn't hear their scolding, and even if he could hear it, he didn't care at all now. All he cared about was Lin Han.

The elevator door opened again, and the number on it showed 1, Fang Bin moved his body and walked out of the elevator, several impatient people disliked Fang Bin coming out too slowly, rubbing his body and squeezing into the elevator, Fang Bin was a little irritated by their actions.

"What for? Reincarnation! ”

His eyes glared angrily, and his eyes looked like murder. The people in the elevator naturally didn't dare to say anything, and the people who were close to the elevator door kept pressing the close button with their hands, trying to avoid Fang Bin's sight outside as soon as possible.

Fang Bin's voice just now also attracted the attention of Li Muchuan in the car, and when he looked sideways, Fang Bin was walking towards the car lifeless step by step, with the word frustration written on his face.

It has only been five or six minutes since he went up, and it shouldn't be good news.

"Fang Bin, how is it?"

Fang Bin didn't seem to hear Li Muchuan's voice, his eyes just looked ahead emptyly, he opened the car door weakly, and his body was weakly thrown on the chair, like a lifeless body.

"Fang Bin, what happened?"

Li Muchuan asked again, raising his voice.

Fang Bin seemed to come back to his senses, turned his head to look at Li Muchuan, and replied softly, "Lin Han is not here." ”

Li Muchuan could also predict this result, and Fang Bin should also be mentally prepared, how could the stimulation be so great. Questions lingered in Li Muchuan's heart, but it was not easy to ask, he could only wait for Fang Bin to say something, and he would naturally know the answer.

After a moment of silence, Fang Bin took out his mobile phone and pressed it a few times and threw it to Li Muchuan.

"Look at it."

Pick up the phone, the screen is stopping in the dialog box of the text message, the contact is Lin Han, and the text message time is just now.

It seems that Lin Han is fine? But looking down, all the doubts just now have cleared the fog and revealed the true face of the truth.

"Lin Han is here, don't call the police!"

A threatening text message! Pierced into Fang Bin's heart, and even the hope that had just survived was taken away.

"Lin Han was arrested." The weak and powerless Fang Bin squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, with resentment and helplessness.

"Are you sure the authenticity of this text message?" Li Muchuan said.

"It's very likely that it's not kidnapping, it's a scam, using the mobile phone number of someone you know to falsely claim to have been kidnapped to get a ransom by some means, when the person is not in their hands at all."

Li Muchuan said to Fang Bin another possibility, it was too arbitrary to believe the other party with just a text message.

Fang Bin listened to Li Muchuan's words, and a flash of hope flashed in his eyes, but it was fleeting, and he said in a lost voice: "I also thought so, but there is no one in Lin Han's family, I knocked for a long time." There was no one at home, phone calls not answered, threatening text messages, I had to think of the worst outcome, Xiaochuan. ”

The mobile phone is still in Li Muchuan's hand, and he once again pays attention to the content of the text message: it is not so much intimidation as informing. The other party did not put forward any conditions, but only told Lin Han the information in his hands.

Li Muchuan told Fang Bin about this idea and asked Fang Bin not to be too anxious.

How could it not be in a hurry, Fang Bin shook his head, "Lin Han is in their hands, maybe he will be tortured, I don't dare to imagine." ”

"No, it won't." Li Muchuan interrupted Fang Bin's words, "If it is really a kidnapper, Lin Han is safer, the other party's purpose is just for money, and he will not do anything else." ”

After thinking about it, I felt that what Li Muchuan said made sense, but I felt that something was wrong.

"Ogawa, how do you know this?"

Li Muchuan did not speak, falling into silence. Silence represents a voice, and Fang Bin understands the meaning of it. In the past ten years, Li Muchuan must have been deeply involved in this environment, and what he just said is likely not hearsay, but personal experience.

"Do you still think that the black tiger did it?"

Hearing the name of the black tiger, Fang Bin's brows instantly tightened, his eyes were on fire, and he scolded angrily: "Who else is there besides him!" ”

Li Muchuan gave him another possibility: "Could it be the previous colleague?" Hold a grudge against you after you were defeated, and have been planning for a long time? ”

"No, it won't, right? It's just a business competition, so it won't make it this far, right? Besides, it's been so long," Fang Bin's voice showed a hint of hesitation, and he wasn't very sure about the answer.

Li Muchuan gave his own answer.

"If you win, it can naturally be said to be competition, but the person who loses may be bankrupt."

The words were very calm, but they were powerful, and they punched in their hearts.

Li Muchuan continued: "If this is really a kidnapping, and the other party has not put forward the conditions, then the other party's purpose is not money, but revenge!" ”

Seeking revenge? Fang Bin couldn't imagine who he would marry with someone, and he rarely blushed with anyone, how could anyone seek revenge against him?

It is convenient to follow Li Muchuan's words and find people who have had a holiday with him in his memories.

"Ah, wait, is that him?"
