Chapter 141: Kidnapping (2)

Although it was basically certain that it had nothing to do with the local gangsters in Boston, Qin Tairan did not breathe a sigh of relief, but frowned even tighter.

Because if Duke falls into the hands of the Boston gangsters, Qin Tairan still has some channels to use, but if it doesn't matter to the Boston gangs, it will be difficult for Qin Tairan to capture the traces of the kidnappers for the time being. After all, this is Uncle Sam's turf. The energy of the relevant departments is not infinite, and of course, some stronger forces are not enough at Duke's level.

Qin Tairan walked around the room for more than ten minutes, and finally made up his mind that it was unlikely that this matter would not alarm the FBI, so he called Shu Ya and prepared to talk to Shu Ya alone.

"Shu Ya, here's the thing, from what I know here, basically has nothing to do with a few big underground gangs in Boston, so it's either a gang from other places that crosses the line, or a gang that runs a single gang." Qin Tairan said to Shu Ya with a solemn face.

"A few hours have passed now, but no news has come from the kidnappers. In terms of kidnapping, the scene is quite bizarre. Qin Tairan continued. I am afraid that the kidnappers have other demands, so I am ready to file a secret investigation with the FBI in an official capacity. ”

"However, Duke is not an official diplomatic status, and if I report the disappearance of ordinary citizens here, the United States will not pay too much attention to it, and it has not happened for a long time, and it is difficult for us to make it clear that this is a kidnapping case, so we need your cooperation."

"Counselor Qin, please tell me what I should do" Shu Ya heard Qin Tairan say this, and her heart became even more panicked. "As long as I can get Duke back, I'll do anything."

Qin Tairan thought for a while, this matter is really quite difficult, on the one hand, the United States must attach great importance to it, and on the other hand, it cannot expose Duke's important value to the country, so the strength of official pressure is really difficult to grasp.

"Well, if the FBI asks about your relationship with me in the future, you will say that your father and I are classmates and have a good relationship, and we have met several times in New York before, and I believe that the Americans will not suspect it, so if Duke has an accident, you will come to me as an uncle as soon as possible. But don't tell the truth about this to the two classmates around you. ”

"The second is to contact Duke's mentor and put pressure on the FBI in the name of the school, and from the current situation, we have to use the FBI to better investigate this matter. Because, I'm afraid that this matter can't be solved with money alone. ”

If the relatives and friends of the No. 2 person in the New York Consulate had an accident, rather than a general accident, the degree of attention paid to the United States would definitely be different, and with the appearance of a famous professor as a heavyweight like Professor Pol, it is estimated that the simultaneous efforts of both sides will prompt the United States to handle this case as a major case.

"Okay, Uncle Qin." Although Shu Ya was nervous, her IQ was not affected much, so she changed her words. "I'll do the work on Professor Ball's side right away."

Seeing that Shu Ya, the little girl, was so smart, Qin Tairan really hoped that this young girl was his junior.

Shu Ya had something specific to do, and immediately returned to school, briefly told the two girls Qin Tairan's idea, and then went to Professor Pol with Susanna. Selena returned to MI's office to handle the transfer of funds, informing the relevant banks that MI was ready to call the funds at any time and asked them to prepare remittances and cash.

Such a huge amount of cash to withdraw, the procedures are more troublesome, you must know that the United States is already a credit society. Cash transactions of more than $10,000 are very rare in normal business practice.

Professor Pol was also taken aback when he heard that Duke had an accident, and he valued this genius Professor Pol very much now, so he agreed to Shuya's request without saying a word.

Qin Tairan and Professor Pol took Shu Ya to the FBI in Boston overnight.

For Qin Tairan, if he had a choice, he would definitely not want to find a powerful institution called Lao Mei. Everyone is a peer and knows each other, so if we can't see each other, we won't see each other.

But Duke is not only the person who is required to take care of him, but Duke also has a very good impression of Qin Tairan on weekdays, and he has dealt with him several times, and Qin Tairan is very appreciative of the high demeanor and brightness that Duke inadvertently shows, and technically, the information fed back from Wang Guosheng shows that Duke never procrastinates in doing things, and the quality of the tasks he completes is amazingly good, and he is definitely a world-class genius in recent years.

If you don't know it in the future, Duke will be a national-level scientist of Qian Lao's level.

So in terms of reason, Qin Tairan can only bite the bullet.

When the group arrived at the FBI office in Boston, it was already half past ten in the evening. The place was already empty, except for the staff on duty.

"Counsellor of the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in New York?" The officer on duty took Qin Tairan's diplomatic passport and looked at it, and couldn't help but gasp.

It's so late, could it be that something is wrong with the Chinese students in Boston? The officer on duty guessed in his heart, and then took Professor Pol's ID card and work card, and it turned out to be a professor at MIT. This thing is really a bit of a problem.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, is there anything I can do to help you?" The officer on duty asked respectfully. Since things are very troublesome, then in their own link, there must be no mistakes in what should be done, neither of these two people is easy to mess with, and if you don't do a good job of complaining, you will lose it. The employment situation outside the outside is really not good.

The officer on duty thought about it really, and Shu Ya next to him hurriedly introduced the situation briefly, as soon as he heard that it was indeed an accident with the international student, but now it is only missing, as for the kidnapping, there is only a text message, and it is impossible to judge now, but this student can provoke the Chinese consulate counselor and the MIT professor to jointly attack, which is obviously extraordinary.

The officer on duty did not dare to slack off, and immediately asked his superiors to call the director of the FBI in Boston from his bed. Fortunately, in the middle of the night, the streets of Boston were so empty that the supervisor arrived in more than ten minutes. After exchanging a few words with Qin Tairan and Professor Pol, the supervisor knew that Shu Ya was the main person in this incident, so he went straight to the topic.

"I'm Gretel, the FBI director in Boston, so please tell me about the whole thing."

Shu Ya talked about the whole incident in more detail, of course, Qin Tairan, the counselor who appeared here overnight, was the "uncle" she called over to help, except for this, Shu Ya basically recounted it according to the actual situation.

"Judging from the current situation, this is most likely a kidnapping case, can Miss Shuya tell us about Dr. Duke's situation? For example, are there any enemies or other parties in the United States? Glitter asked.

"As far as I know, there shouldn't be, we have been here for less than a year, and because we have a lot of academic and work matters, we basically don't have time to contact the outside world." Shu Ya recalled carefully, shook her head and said.

"So how is Dr. Duke well-known in the United States?" Gretel asked another question that didn't seem very relevant.

When Shu Ya heard this, she couldn't help but be a little dazed, what does this mean?

Professor Pol, who seemed to have some experience in these things, immediately said: "As a doctoral student at MIT, Dr. Duke won the championship of MIT's automatic robot competition this year, and also participated in the National College Student Entrepreneurship Competition, which also won the championship. ”

"So Dr. Duke is well-known in the United States and very rich?" Glitter continued to ask. Obviously, he didn't know much about MI or anything, otherwise he wouldn't have asked.

"MI is now valued at more than $1 billion, and Dr. Duke is the largest controlling shareholder, a veritable billionaire." Shu Ya only understood Gretel's intentions at this time, and wanted to know if Duke was worth being kidnapped.

"Billionaire!" When Gretel heard this, he chuckled in his heart, the identity of an international student who has received the attention of the counselor of the other country is enough to worry people, and now he is still a billionaire, and this matter is becoming more and more troublesome.

has a high reputation, his own wealth, and the last news from the previous bitter master, this ninety percent is a kidnapping and ransom case, and it will soon evolve into a huge amount of extortion case in the United States, which is undoubtedly an embarrassing scandal in the United States, the United States has always flaunted freedom and democracy, but even a personal safety can not be guaranteed, which is undoubtedly a great irony.

"Mr. Gretel, Dr. Duke is a promising PhD from our school, and is now in charge of a NASA program, please ensure Dr. Duke's personal safety no matter what." Seeing Gretel fall silent, Professor Pol couldn't help but emphasize.

"Professor Pol, we will do everything in our power to ensure the safety of the hostages. Judging from the information you just provided, it is preliminarily judged that this should be a kidnapping and ransom case, but it is still unclear why the suspect has not sent relevant information about extorting money. Gretel said.

"We immediately set up an investigation and started investigating the case. In addition, for the needs of the case, we will fully monitor Miss Shu Ya's phone call, please delay the call as much as possible when Miss Shu receives the suspect's phone call so that we can locate the location of the phone. ”

Gretel immediately decided that if it was an ordinary kidnapping and ransom case, there was no doubt that he would push it to the police station, but this was a big case involving a billionaire, or an important case with international influence, if he did a good job, there was no doubt that this was a good opportunity for him to be promoted.
