On February 12, 2017, the fifth day of the first lunar month, people who enjoy traditional customs feast relatives and friends with delicious food and wine in restaurants and restaurants, wishing each other a prosperous start to business and good health. Even in the snowy winter, the road is still bustling with traffic, and the large and small restaurants on both sides of the road are full of cars in front of their doors every night, and diners come in and out, expressing the rich scene of the city's nightlife.

The whole Xinjiekou is like a sea of Chinese red, the red lanterns printed with the word "Xi" are high in front of the store, the window flowers of the high-crowned rooster are reflected on the bright window lattice, and the snowflakes fluttering in the sky float and fall slowly, the street scene is beautiful, so that passers-by seem to have walked into a fairy tale world.

High-end wearing a down jacket to the new street supermarket walked up, he carried a white chicken and a knife of pork belly in his hand, the chicken was he watched killed, the lively reed rooster became a white chicken in a blink of an eye, he secretly felt sorry for this big rooster, fantasizing about the next life to try to support a bird or an eagle, to avoid people fade naked on the street. Instead, I thought of stewing the big rooster and pork belly in a casserole and putting them on the dining table fragrantly, and took out the bottle of Moutai that had been treasured for five years and drank two taels, maybe just to rejoice that I had another Lunar New Year.

High-end lives in Xinhua South Road "New World Apartment", out and out of the new street have to pass through Xinjiekou, high-end like to go to the supermarket no food, prefer the street of Xinjiekou, in his heart this street regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter cold and warm ground is full of warm warm colors.

The snow on the sidewalks has long been trampled on like mud, and the temperature may be more comfortable when it snows than when it is dry and cold, because many young people have taken off their cotton clothes and changed into all kinds of spring clothes, and even two girls have put on skirts. The high-end ornamental checkered skirt and the silver snow mist on the branches suddenly came to my head, what would it be like to sit by the hot pot and eat an ice cube?

There was a circle of people under a huge plane tree on the side of the road, a wandering singer turned his face up, and his eyes were fixed on the white snowflakes on the branches of the tree playing the prelude, and a beautiful speaker was placed on a bench under the plane tree that had been wiped and fallen on the thin white snow, and after a while, the beautiful and soothing music gradually sounded:

"When I am lost, the song softens the tiredness and creeps into my heart;

Love, as if embracing time, waiting for my confused soul space,

Your smiling face when you applauded inspired me to courage, and on this night, I stood on the top of a high mountain;

You have made me brave the storm and brave to move forward;

When I look into your eyes, I feel no longer cold, and the warm current pours into my arms;

The song dispelled the loneliness and conquered the difficulties, how could I think that this is a love affair that awakens the heart......"

The song is desolate and affectionate, and people can't help but feel a lot more sad, a few passers-by follow the rhythm with leisurely steps, and the wandering singer seems to see no one listening or leaving, as if standing on the treetops and looking at the lost scene in the distance.

High-end listening to the song nose sour, he remembered his sister Gao Hong, my sister used to sing this song often, not only sang euphemistically and beautifully, but also won the first place in the 2010 Provincial Singer Competition with this song, and since then embarked on the road of professional singers, unfortunately my sister disappeared last year, and her whereabouts are still unknown.

At the end of the song, Gao Gao saw the wandering singer with long loose hair, a half-foot-long beard on his chin, wearing a half-worn black long cotton coat, and a cotton cap on his head that only old men wear, but with a high-spirited demeanor and an artist's demeanor.

The wandering singer still didn't look at anyone after singing a song, and Gao Gao saw a plastic basin under the bench, which contained several banknotes of different denominations, the largest of which was ten yuan. High-end walked over and put a new hundred-dollar bill into the basin, and the wandering singer just looked at him without saying anything, still lowering his head and savoring the sound of the piano, as if the matter of high-end money had nothing to do with him. Gao Gao seems to feel that he is not singing to make money, but to show off his feelings. The high-end left with no respect or confusion.

Gao Gao came home and looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was already 8:15 p.m., he first put the big in the pressure cooker, put the green onion and ginger on the fire, took out the pork belly in the pot of boiling water, put it on the cutting board, and pondered what kind of meat to cut into. Just then, I heard the mobile phone ringing on the sofa in the living room.

The high-end turned off the fire and wiped his hand and walked back to the living room to pick up the phone, but the number displayed on the mobile phone screen made him very confused, 4 zeros. High-end thought that it must be another harassing call, so he threw the phone on the sofa again, but the phone rang again, and it kept ringing, and High-end was a little impatient to connect the phone and was ready to scold the other party.

A male duck's voice came from the earpiece: Are you high-end?

High-end asked: It's me, who are you?

The male duck said: It doesn't matter who I am, I know Gao Hong's whereabouts.

Gao Gao was taken aback when he heard this, and he immediately realized that the voice was processed by voice change, so he hurriedly asked: How can I believe that you know her whereabouts?

The male duck said: I will send you a video, you can confirm it.

After saying that, the male duck hung up the phone, a minute later, the high-end mobile phone had an MMS prompt sound, he opened it and was stunned, the video screen is far away and a little distorted, but the general outline can still be seen, the picture is an alley, a man and a woman walked out of the alley. The high-end recognized the woman at a glance as her sister Gao Hong, the man lowered his head and couldn't see his face clearly, and his body was behind his sister. Gao Hong was wearing a long skirt with his hair coiled, and it seemed that he was walking towards the camera with his arms crossed by a man, and the video was interrupted for exactly 6 seconds.

High-end re-broadcast from the beginning, he carefully identified the man holding his sister, but he couldn't see anything except a baseball cap.

The mobile phone rang again, and the male duck asked: Have you confirmed?

High-end steady Shen'er replied: Yes, but what does this mean?

The male duck said: This video was taken on the night of April 7 last year opposite the "Boiling Bar", I didn't think about it at the time, I didn't think about it at any time, two days ago I found out that the woman in the video seems to be the well-known singer Gao Hong, thinking of the disappearance of Gao Hong last year, I think there is a story, you are Gao Hong's younger brother is likely to need this video, so I want to make a deal with you, I don't know what you think?

High-end said: What conditions?

The male duck said: You listen to me first, I worked a lot to get this video, why do I have to pay for it?

High-end answer: Yes, how much do you want?

The male duck's voice began to tremble and said: Let me tell you that this video is not only these few shots, but also you chased it out, what kind of car did Gao Hong and the man get into after walking out of the alley, how much do you say it is worth?

High-end question: Can you see the license plate number?

The male duck replied with some anxiety: Of course, it is clear, so it is valuable.

Gao Gao said: You name the number.

The male duck said in a relaxed tone: Refreshing, the price is 100,000, and if it doesn't work, you can pull it.

The high-end paused slightly and said: According to what you said, 100,000, how can I give it to you?

The male duck said: The money is in the suitcase, tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning, you put the suitcase on the windowsill of the men's toilet on the first floor of the Guangming Mall, you put the box to the front desk to manage the service staff to ask the uncle to bring you a letter, the video card is in the envelope, if you don't keep your promise, our transaction will end, the video card will be destroyed on the spot, just when I don't have this money.

High-end said: Why not now? I have cash right now.

The male duck laughed and said, "I have something else to do, just tomorrow at noon."

High-end answer: Okay, deal.

The male duck didn't say anything more and hung up the call. The high-end put down the phone and looked at the wall clock again, the time is to play at 8:40, this is a habit developed by his profession, he adjusted his emotions and analyzed the reason just now, if it is really like what the male duck said, my sister was taken away by someone in a car, which means that my sister may not be voluntary, is my sister hijacked? If my sister is kidnapped, she is likely to be in danger, and she may no longer be alive... Although Gao Gao had thought so before, it had not been confirmed, and he felt an inexplicable fear when the male duck said this.

Gao Gao was a little out of breath, he came to the window, the glass on the window was covered with a thick layer of mist, he pushed the window open, and found that there were white snowflakes floating in the night sky again, he lit a cigarette and smoked it, the smoke blew into the snow and the night refused to disperse for a long time, and his sister's face appeared in his mind again......
