Chapter Ninety-Four: Memories
Later, he called his friend 4 times in a row, all with the same result.
This made Director Wang suspicious, so he called the people of the Bai family. The phone was answered by a maid from the White Plus Villa.
He asked the maid about when his friend had gone out, what he had taken with him, if he had left anything behind, or if there was anything out of the ordinary, to which the maid replied no.
Director Wang was a little flustered, so he called his friend's grandson Bai Ruoheng, and told Bai Ruoheng the cause of the matter, after the reason, and his grandfather, when he could contact him at the beginning, he could say that he would arrive later, but it was directly displayed later, and the phone you dialed could not be connected, and the direct display at the end was that the phone you dialed was turned off, and it couldn't get through, and then asked his friend's domestic servant and couldn't ask for it.
Bai Ruoheng received a call from Director Wang, and hurriedly returned home from the company.
At the same time, Director Wang also followed from his own Nanjiang auction
At the end of the ceremony, he went straight to his friend's home.
After the two got together, Bai Ruoheng began to work with Director Wang to make some particularly detailed and methodical analyses of his grandfather's sudden inability to contact him, and then screened out some of the most likely reasons from the analysis, and on this basis, began to determine one by one what the reason for his grandfather did not arrive at the Nanjiang Auction House in time.
They listed a total of five routes, the first is that his grandfather may have received a call from someone else on the way, and then led to the process of going to the southern Xinjiang clubhouse, and may have gone to other places but didn't have time to tell Director Wang.
The second line is that his grandfather may have been delayed for other reasons, so he went to another place first, but the phone happened to be out of power, so the display was turned off.
For example, when his grandfather left, he brought with him a landscape painting by a famous painter of the Tang Dynasty. If something goes wrong with the word in your hand on the way, think about a remedy or something.
The third line is that his grandfather walked in a hurry, and the time was relatively hurried, seeing that the opening time of the auction hall was approaching, but he was still far away from the auction house. This can also be taken into account.
Another one is that his grandfather drove there, maybe his grandfather's car broke down halfway. went to the repair location, and then it happened that his grandfather's phone turned off automatically when the battery was low. So I can't get in touch, and if I think about it worse, it is that his grandfather may have had a serious car accident, and the mobile phone and the person have been separated, and the person is in a hospital in Dongcheng.
The last one, and the worst one, the painting that his grandfather was holding in his hand might have been targeted by his peers, and then in order to snatch the words from his grandfather's hand, he would hurt his grandfather, or kidnap his grandfather.
There is also a possibility that the business rival who is hostile to his grandfather wants to be unfavorable to his grandfather, and it happens that his grandfather is rushing to the Nanjiang auction house, looking for those people's ways, and then preparing to detain his grandfather, so as to blackmail his grandson Bai Ruoheng, and use other interests or transactions to redeem his grandfather.
They made relatively specific solutions from each direction, the first was that his grandfather might have received a call from someone else in the middle of the way, and then caused a delay in going to the Nanjiang auction house.
But after the people from the Bai Ruoheng Police Station went out to investigate, they found that there didn't seem to be such a problem, because all the people who went to him had arrived, and those antique calligraphy and painting shops, all the antique calligraphy and painting shops in Dongcheng went to chase them
After a check, none of the shopkeepers there said that they had seen his grandfather.
His grandfather may have been delayed for other reasons, so he went to other places first, and for this, he also asked people to go to all the sections of the road from his grandfather's house to the auction house in southern Xinjiang, all the places that must be passed, investigated the surveillance video, and found that there was an intersection where his grandfather seemed to be gone. But if there is, all the necessary sections of the road to go to the auction in southern Xinjiang have been carefully checked, and no problems have been found with his grandfather.
The car driven by his grandfather was personally transferred from his garage for his grandfather, the latest, limited edition, regardless of the body model, and the license plate tail number is also relatively special. You can see it at a glance on the surveillance footage.
From the initial steady and gentle, to the halfway form is relatively fast, there has been no difference, and the car has not stopped. I didn't even see his grandfather get out of the car.
It's just that at the intersection of an intersection, all the necessary sections from that place to the Nanjiang Auction House, from those surveillance videos, there is basically no figure about his grandfather driving a car. It is also from that intersection, the intersection, that there are fewer people coming and going, and there are not as many cars as there are other sections. It seems to be from here
He couldn't find his grandfather anymore.
Although he didn't know where his grandfather had gone during this period, it could be ruled out that his grandfather had gone in a car, and his grandfather's car had not broken down on the way. Or go to the repair site, at least from the surveillance footage they can get to it, this is the most basic point.
Immediately afterwards, it happened that his grandfather's mobile phone automatically turned off when the battery was low. Therefore, it cannot be contacted, although this cannot be confirmed on the surveillance video, but it can also become a suspicious point.
And from the picture in the surveillance video, it is that his grandfather may have had a serious car accident, the mobile phone and the person have been separated, and the person is in a hospital in Dongcheng.
This point was also carefully examined by Bai Ruoheng's people, and it took less than two days to conclude that none of the people in the hospital were his grandfather. So if it's a car accident, it's not very likely. Because judging from the footage on the existing surveillance video, there is no problem with his grandfather's car.
There was no car accident and no hospital.
Following this clue, Bai Ruoheng and Director Wang began to deliberate that the painting in his grandfather's hand might have been targeted by his peers
, and then in order to snatch the words from his grandfather, he hurt his grandfather, or kidnapped his grandfather.
At this point, Bai Ruoheng also worked with Director Wang to investigate his grandfather in response to this clue, all the old friends about antique calligraphy and painting, as well as his grandfather's old friends who can be said to be very close, and this part of the group of people who have dealings with each other in antique calligraphy and painting are the objects of their investigation.
After some investigation, there were no suspicious points that they could see. If it was just a snatching of the painting, then his grandfather should have been put back, and it would not be so blatant to kidnap and snatch the painting so obviously.
If it was just for the purpose of snatching paintings, there would be no need to kidnap his grandfather all the time. So this suspicion was also ruled out by Bai Ruoheng and Director Wang.
But at the same time, the paradox is that not only his grandfather and his grandfather's car, but also the landscape paintings that I was going to send to the auction house in southern Xinjiang for Director Wang are gone. It also makes people suspect that his grandfather has a certain motive for dealing with this part of the population who have dealings with each other in antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
However, his grandfather is the chief executive of the Bai Group, and it is not this part of the population that can have close relations with his grandfather
Ordinary people are also some small and medium-sized enterprises or particularly well-known collectors in the circle, whether it is status or identity, or hobby antique calligraphy and painting, collection and trading, etc., his grandfather is relatively outstanding in this regard, and can even be said to be equal to them.
They all know that his grandfather is not a character they can easily move, and the most important thing is that the Bai Group has his grandson Bai Ruoheng in charge, and he will not be stupid enough to make such a risky move for the sake of a painting.
If a person disappears without any reason, if any culpability and evidence is found, he will be sentenced. Who would dare to take such a big risk?
Excluding this suspicion, only the last one remains. His grandfather was a business rival of the hostile side who wanted to be unfavorable to his grandfather, and it happened that his grandfather was rushing to the Nanjiang Auction House, and he was on the road of those people, and then he was ready to detain his grandfather, so as to blackmail him and ransom his grandfather with other interests or transactions.
There was no need to verify this, and those who kidnapped his grandfather would naturally take the initiative to find him. Through him, they directly obtain the points of interest they want in his Bai group.
But no. The second day of his grandfather's disappearance. He never went to the company, but stayed at home and waited when the phone rang. That night, however, there were no phone calls related to his grandfather
People and things.
On the third day, he still did not go to the company, and handed over all the affairs of the company to one of his most trusted members of the senior board, who was also his grandfather, and instructed him to be the most trusted person in the future to develop the corporate chain of the Bai Group.
He wasn't in the company, and basically, some of the emergency meetings were attended by the sensible on his behalf.
And on the 3rd day, almost all day, most of them were some inconclusive results from other sources of his grandfather's investigation. Either they claim to have found nothing, or they are blank. It was as if his grandfather had evaporated from the world. There is no trace of it again.
As is customary, usually. If it is really the nature of the kidnapping. It will definitely not be overdue for three days, and there has been no wind and grass yet. He waited patiently for 6 days, and at the same time, the people under him were investigating in the direction finalized by him and Director Wang, but basically found nothing.
"If I could, I would really like to see your grandfather again." Director Wang suddenly sighed lightly.
