In the afternoon, the bustling section of the seaside city is full of traffic and crowds, and the sun is scorching this fast-paced first-tier city.

Peng Bo sat in the back seat of an extended Range Rover in the traffic, he was well-dressed, leaning on the comfortable backrest, calmly and freely crossing Erlang's legs, enjoying the comfortable air conditioning and the respectful courtesy of the driver.

At the red light, Peng Bo looked up at the window, looking at the exhaustion of the people outside the car window, but he was a little envious of these people. Their distress and pressure are so simple and happy compared to him, because they are only carrying the burden of life, and Peng Bo is carrying a curse.

Thinking of that curse, Peng Bo retracted his gaze and refocused on the mobile phone in his hand. Ever since he got into the car, he's been fiddling with his phone with his head down, except for a brief moment looking out of the window.

"Mr. Peng, did you hear what I just said?" The driver of this Land Rover is a young man named Lu Xiaohu, he cautiously glanced at Peng Bo in the back seat from the rearview mirror, and asked respectfully.

Peng Bo is not a person who bows his head in the ordinary sense, holding his mobile phone just to swipe Weibo and WeChat, as a civilian, he does not deliberately want to put up a fight in front of drivers of the same level, he fiddles with his mobile phone because there are important things on his mobile phone, not to mention, he also has the ability to use two or even multi-purpose.

"I heard you, you said that the eldest lady of your family disappeared out of thin air." Peng Bo continued to swipe his finger across the phone screen, staring intently at the screen.

Lu Xiaohu finally waited for the distinguished guest's response, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Yes, Mr. Peng." Like I just said, our eldest lady disappeared out of thin air! Mr. Qiu had a heart attack, but he insisted on refusing to be hospitalized, and he must wait at home for you to come and help, and also to wait for the kidnappers to answer the phone call. ”

"Oh? Do you suspect it's kidnapping? Peng Bo lowered his head and asked.

"Mr. Qiu said it must be a kidnapping, that's why he asked me to ask you to help." Mr. Qiu in Lu Xiaohu's mouth is Qiu Qingfeng, the leading real estate tycoon in Haibin City, commonly known as a local tyrant.

Speaking of Qiu Qingfeng's only daughter Qiu Zhenni, that is, the eldest lady who disappeared out of thin air, Peng Bo allocated a part of his thoughts to reminisce.

He once had such a relationship with this eldest lady at a charity reception, when she was mad at a waitress and even made a move, without the slightest style of a lady.

"Explain, how do you think Jenny Qiu disappeared out of thin air." Peng Bo admits that the words "disappear out of thin air" still slightly aroused some of his interest, although he had a hunch that it was just a very simple trick that he would soon see through.

"That's the case, the eldest lady has been grounded by Mr. Qiu for the past few days, and she is not allowed to take a step out of the villa, and the ban will not be lifted until next Monday. Last night, the maid Aunt Huang also went to the eldest lady's bedroom to bring her dinner, as usual, the eldest lady took her anger out on Aunt Huang, lying on the bed and complaining. ”

Lu Xiaohu glanced at Peng Bo who was looking down from the rearview mirror again, he was worried that Peng Bo was not listening to him carefully, so he made his tone even more exaggerated.

"And this morning, in fact, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning, when Aunt Huang brought breakfast in, she didn't see the eldest lady in the bedroom. After Mr. Qiu learned about it, he organized everyone in the family to look for the eldest lady in the villa, but we almost turned the villa upside down, but there was no trace of the eldest lady! ”

Lu Xiaohu raised his voice, "So we suspected that the eldest lady had secretly escaped as she had been grounded in the past, so we went to see all the surveillance videos of the villa, but from last night to noon today, there was no record of the eldest lady driving or walking away at the gate and back door of the villa." Above the courtyard wall is the power grid, and there is also comprehensive monitoring, and the eldest lady is not recorded. ”

"In other words, the whole villa and courtyard are like a secret room?" Peng Bo raised his head slightly, and he appropriated some more thoughts on the so-called vanishing case out of thin air.

"That's right, we have carefully reviewed all the surveillance footage of the villa from last night to noon today, and we have not found the whereabouts of the eldest lady at all. And most importantly, during this time, no one left the villa on foot or by car. Lu Xiaohu was convincing.

"A living human being disappears out of thin air, which is itself a false proposition," Peng Bo said without saying a word, still glued to the screen of his mobile phone, "Now we will use the method of elimination to prove this false proposition." First of all, Xiaohu, does Qiu Mansion have a secret room or an underground passage? ”

Lu Xiaohu pondered while driving, he hesitated for a moment and replied: "It should not be, as far as I know, it is not." ”

"However, there is a safe room in Mr. Qiu's bedroom, which is the kind of room that you can hide in when you are in danger and cannot be invaded from the outside, and there is also Mr. Qiu's safe inside. But Mr. Qiu had already personally inspected it, and the eldest lady was not inside. Lu Xiaohu immediately added.

Peng Bo asked: "What do you think is the possibility that Qiu Qingfeng hid Qiu Jenny in a safe house and then lied that she was not in it?" ”

Lu Xiaohu shook his head hurriedly, "No, I don't think it's absolutely possible." There is no reason for Mr. Qiu to do this! Mr. Qiu had a heart attack due to the disappearance of the eldest lady. ”

"Secondly, between last night and this morning, did you hear the sound of the aircraft passing by Qiu's house?" Peng Bo interrupted Lu Xiaohu.

Lu Xiaohu was a little surprised, Peng Bo would actually ask such a question, he shook his head with a wry smile, "No, Qiu Mansion has bodyguards on duty every night, if there is such a sound or something flying in the air, they will not be unable to hear or see." I dare to pack a ticket for this. ”

"What is the probability that the bodyguards on duty will lie en masse?" Peng Bo didn't wait for Lu Xiaohu's words to fall, and then asked again.

As if he was justifying his name, Lu Xiaohu said solemnly: "There is absolutely no such possibility!" ”

"Okay, third, is it possible that you didn't watch the surveillance carefully enough, or that someone else has tampered with it?" Peng Bo is like a questioning machine, with no mood fluctuations and no ups and downs in tone.

"No, all of our bodyguards and drivers have taken turns to watch it several times, and they won't miss anything, and the surveillance video is monitored in real time by a special combination of two bodyguards, and no one will have the opportunity to do anything." Lu Xiaohu said extremely seriously.

"In other words, you think the likelihood of someone guarding the surveillance is also almost zero?" Peng Bo asked rhetorically.

"Yes." Lu Xiaohu somewhat understood Peng Bo's intentions, it turned out that the elimination method was such an elimination method, first to rule out the possibility of the eldest lady leaving the villa from the sky and the earth, and then to rule out the possibility of the eldest lady leaving from the gate or the back door wall. So next, how else can Peng Bo rule it out?

Peng Bo asked: "Have you searched carefully for the inside of the villa?" I mean, the space outside of the space where you can hide a person, like drawers, small cabinets, boxes, etc. ”

Lu Xiaohu's whole body trembled, and he asked tremblingly: "Mr. Peng, do you think ...... No, no, as I said, there are bodyguards patrolling the Qiu Mansion day or night, and no one will have the opportunity to ...... in the Qiu Mansion."

"Okay, the possibility that Jenny Qiu was murdered and dismembered in Qiu's mansion can be ruled out for the time being," Peng Bo pressed the lock screen button of his mobile phone and put his phone in his pocket, "Last question, about Aunt Huang, the maid who claimed to have seen Jenny Qiu last night, how likely do you think she lied?" ”

Lu Xiaohu didn't expect Peng Bo to ask like this, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied sincerely: "I don't think it's possible, Aunt Huang is an old employee of the Qiu family, and she has always been diligent, with my understanding of her, there is no need for her to tell this lie." ”

"Patrolling, finding people, and real-time surveillance footage are all collective actions, and only this Aunt Huang, who claims to have seen Jenny Qiu, is acting alone. According to the probability, the problem is most likely to be with this Aunt Huang. Peng Bo said, slowly raised his head, looked into Lu Xiaohu's eyes from the rearview mirror, and said something that made Lu Xiaohu stunned.

He said: "At present, it seems that there is a great possibility that Jenny Qiu disappeared out of thin air because of me. ”

"Huh?" After a long time, Lu Xiaohu came back to his senses, "Mr. Peng, what do you mean by this?" ”

Peng Bo said quietly: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that Qiu Zhenni disappeared because of me, even if it wasn't for me, she would still be missing." My focus is on the way she disappeared – out of thin air. The way she disappeared out of thin air was because of me. ”

Lu Xiaohu also wanted to ask again to understand, how could the eldest lady's disappearance out of thin air be related to the private detective who was about to take over the case, but the car had already driven into the Shengshi Huating in the villa area where Qiu's house was located, and now what he cared about was not Peng Bo's analysis of the disappearance case, but that Qiu Qingfeng would not blame himself for completing the task too slowly.

Peng Bo glanced back, and the white business vehicle that had been driving behind their car just now was also allowed by the security guard at the gate of the villa area, and drove into the villa area after them. The white van had the name of Huaci Hospital printed on it, and the driver of the car was also wearing a uniform with the Huaci logo on it.

Huaci Hospital is the most upscale and even luxurious private hospital in Haibin City, specializing in serving the local tyrants in Haibin City.

High fees, strict management, meticulous customer first service concept and superb medical skills have created such a hospital with both fame and fortune. They also have a special service that the medical team will be the first to visit the customer when they need it.

"I don't understand, since Mr. Qiu has called the police, why is he still looking for me?" Thinking of the previous case, when the police intervened at the same time as himself, he encountered the disdain and white eyes of the police, Peng Bo frowned.

Lu Xiaohu asked in surprise: "Won't it?" Before I left in the morning, Mr. Qiu repeatedly stated that he would never call the police. Mr. Peng, how do you know that someone has called the police? ”

Peng Bo stretched out his hand and pointed to the white commercial car behind him, "In that car, it is not the medical team of Huaci's door-to-door service at all, but the police." ”

"How so?" Lu Xiaohu took the time to glance at the car behind him from the rearview mirror, and he didn't see anything wrong.

"The uniforms of commercial vehicle drivers are unbuttoned at the collar," Peng Bo explained, "Huaci has very strict requirements for the appearance of employees, and it is impossible for drivers to unbutton their collars when they are on duty." ”

Lu Xiaohu also looked at the driver behind him from the rearview mirror, and saw that the curvature of the driver's collar was indeed not tied with the first button.

In addition, the co-pilot did not remind the driver to fasten the button, and according to the hospital's regulations, both of them will be punished. So I think that the people in the car are not Huaci's people. Since he is not Hua Ci's person, but he can drive Hua Ci's car through the checkpoint at the gate security guard to enter the villa area, then the person in the car is likely to be the police. ”

"Why did the police drive Hua Ci's car?" Lu Xiaohu asked.

Peng Bo lowered his head again and said, "The reason why they want to use Hua Ci's car as a disguise is to disguise the identity of the police and prevent the kidnappers from knowing that the Qiu family has called the police." ”
