Just after we arrived in District 19, the kidnappers called Lin Jie again and asked Lin Jie to take the No. 1 bus with 500,000 cash. As for what to do after that, I will follow his arrangement later.

At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly shouted at the walkie-talkie: "Damn, I found that guy!" ”

"Where?"

"At the junction of the passage on the second floor, there is a bastard who is holding a mobile phone and running in the direction of the underground parking garage!"

Floor-2 passage? By comparing the GPS information, I found that the location of the mobile phone signal is indeed near the second-floor channel, and from just now, the signal is in a state of moving again.

So that guy, is that him?

We can't wait any longer, there are only three of us, and once the other person runs to the underground parking garage, it will be difficult to have a chance to catch him again.

I hurriedly radioed Lu Yuan and another plainclothes police officer to rush from different directions towards the junction of the second-floor passageway, blocking the bastard in the middle of nowhere.

For some reason, even though I had discovered the other party's location, the uneasy feeling in my heart still did not abate. There were so many things that were wrong, but there was so little time left for us that I couldn't take everything into account and was forced to act.

Hopefully, this time, my instincts don't come true.

There are four staircases connecting the first and second floors, but the only way to get into the underground parking garage is the staircase passage in Zone A.

I picked up my pace and headed towards Zone A.

As soon as I turned a corner, I saw that on the edge of the second floor in the distance, Lu Yuan was chasing a guy in an army green coat and going down the escalator.

The guy obviously noticed the distance behind him, and kept accelerating all the way down, heading straight for the underground garage.

It seems that because Lu Yuan chased too close, the guy just rushed to the first floor, suddenly mixed garlic under his feet, fell hard, and a black Nokia mobile phone fell out of the inner pocket of the coat and rolled directly to the corner.

"I'll just say, this bastard just made a call from this phone!"

My heart sank, and I hurriedly ran over, and at the same time lowered my voice and asked, "You say, are there any of his accomplices in this shopping mall?" ”

"It's hard to say, I haven't found it yet, anyway, catch this guy first!"

Just then, another detective came up from the underground garage, and the three of us leaned over together to control the guy's movements.

"Who are you, I...

"Don't move, police, you're arrested, be honest!" Lu Yuan twisted the man's arm back, and without waiting for him to speak, he pushed directly towards the corner of the underground garage.

At the entrance to the underground garage, the detective who was in charge of tracking the GPS signal earlier had already driven Santana there, and the three of us hurriedly pressed the car into the car, and then picked up the Nokia mobile phone and compared it with the mobile phone signal that the police had been tracking.

After a simple check, the criminal policeman's face suddenly showed an excited expression: "The signal is coming from this mobile phone, it's not wrong, this bastard is a kidnapper!" ”

"Ahh Kidnappers, what kidnappers? Seeing that we were so excited, the middle-aged man in the military coat suddenly panicked, and hurriedly whispered: "Comrade policeman, I am an honest man, but I haven't done anything bad, you... Don't wronged me! ”

When Lu Yuan heard this, he suddenly stopped doing something, grabbed the guy's collar and said sharply: "Honest man? Would an honest man go out of his way to kidnap and extort money? ”

"Ahh Kidnapping for ransom? This... This.... When the middle-aged man heard this, he was instantly anxious, and almost said with a crying voice: "That person didn't tell me before, he just asked me to 。。。。。。 ”

"What do you want to do?"

Looking at the embarrassed performance of the middle-aged man in front of me, at that moment, I directly ruled out his suspicion.

In my opinion, the kidnappers who really hijacked Huahua have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, know how to disguise their voices and control the duration of their calls, and their psychological quality is much higher than that of normal people.

If that guy was arrested by the police, it would definitely not be such a middle-aged man.

It seems that my previous hunch has been fulfilled.

"You let him go first and see what he has to say."

Lu Yuan listened, nodded, and used the key to open the handcuffs on the middle-aged man's wrist.

When the handcuffs were removed, the guy quickly put his hand into his coat, and before we could react, he took out a Nokia phone from his inner pocket that was exactly the same as before.

"You are..."

"The man gave me five hundred dollars and told me to put two phones next to each other. When he called, he used another mobile phone to dial a designated number, and when he hung up, he hung up the phone together. He told me that he was doing some kind of physics experiment, and I didn't pay attention to it at the time. Who knows... How do you know that the other party is actually doing this kind of thing! ”

What the! As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, I figured out what the other party was thinking.

The bastard did know how the police tracked the cell phone signal, first using the phone to dial one of the mobile phones, and then using this mobile phone as a "transit station" to talk to Lin Jie. In this way, even if the police followed the signal, they could only catch this unlucky middle-aged man.

No wonder every time before talking to the other party, there will be a serious electric current sound in the microphone, it turns out that the problem is here!

Damn, in the end, I'm still being tricked by that bastard! I thought about it for a while, and hurriedly asked the middle-aged man if he remembered the general appearance and physical characteristics of the person who gave him the mobile phone.

The middle-aged man thought for a while, and only said that it was dark at that time, and the other party was still wearing a mask, so he couldn't see it clearly, and he only remembered a rough idea of the specific details.

The person who gave him the phone was supposed to be a young man, about twenty to thirty years old, of medium height, and on the fat side. The only thing that impressed him was that he remembered that there was a jade cross hanging from the man's neck.

A jade cross? Could it be that the other party is a Jesuit? Suddenly, I remembered the church that appeared in the underground research institute at No. 37 L House, and the scene of meeting Ye Xianguo in the church, I only felt that my head hurt and I felt uncomfortable.

We quickly contacted Lao Yan's side and explained the situation to him.

After listening to the general process, the other end of the microphone also fell into a deep silence.

After a while, the old man sighed, looking a little helpless: "I don't know if the real kidnappers already knew about this when you arrested that middle-aged man." ”

Lu Yuan didn't know what to do, and directly left a sentence, "It's already like this anyway, do the kidnappers know about this matter, can it have an impact?" ”

"Nonsense, of course there is!"

If that guy just used the middle-aged man as a scapegoat, maybe things could turn around. The most fearful thing is that when we do it, the kidnappers are hiding in a corner of the shopping mall, watching what is happening there. If this is the case, even Huahua's life will be threatened.

However, after thinking about the whole thing together, I suddenly felt that the other party seemed to have known that the police would follow the signal all the way, so I deliberately designed this trap.

In this case, it seems that it is not so important whether we catch this middle-aged man or not, and whether the other party knows about it in advance.

I just learned from Lao Yan that not long ago, Lin Jie had boarded bus No. 1 with a suitcase containing 500,000 yuan in cash.

The other party asked her to get on the bus first, and then informed her of her next move. I held the Nokia phone in my hand and asked the detective to analyze the signal of the phone at any time, and once the other party dialed over, I made sure that I could lock the location of the guy as soon as possible.

"What's next? What's next? ”

If the other party's target is on the 500,000 cash in Lin Jie's hand, the guy will definitely call Lin Jie again in the process, or take some actions to get those dollars without avoiding the eyes of the police. In this way, the most likely place for the other party to appear next is near Lin Jie.

However, what happened in the mall today gave me a very different perspective on the whole kidnapping case. Perhaps, the real intention of those kidnappers is not in money.

I thought about it for a while, and asked the two criminal policemen to take the middle-aged man back to the bureau for interrogation first, while Lu Yuan and I found another car and rushed to meet Lin Jie.

In either case, I have to take it into account and make sure nothing goes wrong.

I communicated with Lao Yan's side about the situation here, and Lao Yan's side also agreed with my opinion. Before more clues appear, it is still necessary to temporarily assume that the other party's purpose is to seek money, and prepare accordingly in advance.

Currently, Bus Line 1 is under close police surveillance to ensure that every passenger getting on and off the bus can be recorded. As long as the kidnapper dares to show up, we will definitely have a way to arrest him.

I asked Lu Yuan to find the route map of Bus Line 1 in advance and roughly browsed it.

The entire No. 1 bus line runs almost through the south of Heijin City, and there are a total of eighteen stops during this period, and the villa area where Lin Jie's house is located happens to be the third stop, and after that, there are another fifteen bus stops.

Where might the other party choose to do it? If he was moving in the city, there would be a dense flow of people, which would be easy to hide from people, but after he got the cash, it was difficult for him to escape. If they were to act in the suburbs, it would be too obvious that the kidnappers would not easily expose themselves.

At this moment, after a casual glance, my eyes were suddenly drawn to a building on the map.

"Lu Yuan, where is this?"

"The Xincheng Bridge, the bridge that was built just a year ago, spans the canal south of Heijin City!"

Bridges, canals!

Memories came flooding back one after another, and the strange sound that appeared at the end of the recording file reappeared in my mind.

It wasn't until this moment that I realized that the sound was clearly the roar of a steamer!
