Chapter 8: Here comes the trouble

Early the next morning, only Ye Shiwen enjoyed a hearty breakfast in the hotel. Zhong Yuan stuffed a note with his phone number written on it into her room and went straight to the Capital Museum.

As the first batch of spectators to open the door, I walked around until more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and I was still a little unsatisfied after coming out.

Zhong Yuan called Ye Shiwen and wanted to ask her if she had lunch, and if not, he would buy something for her to take back, but no one answered after calling several times, and transferred to the room through the front desk, which was the same. Zhong Yuan slowly put the phone back in his pocket, and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, as if he had a premonition that something was happening.

He didn't care about eating, so he hurriedly took a taxi back to the hotel. He asked the waiter to open the door of Ye Shiwen's room, and found a note next to the TV that he had left her phone number, but there was another number underneath. This number is definitely not Ye Shiwen's, because if she wants to tell Zhong Yuan, just call him or send him a text message on her mobile phone.

Zhong Yuan immediately dialed the number, and the other party was a strange man's voice: "You finally called, if you don't call, I won't have the patience to wait." ”

"Who are you and what do you want to do?" After asking this sentence, Zhong Yuan himself also secretly cursed, how could the other party say his identity.

Sure enough, there was a contemptuous laugh on the other end of the phone: "You don't care who I am, this little girl said that you will give a lot of money for her, is it true?" ”

I...... Zhong Yuan felt like he was going crazy.

For a moment, he even wondered if the girl was colluding with this person, but then he thought about it, if it wasn't, he wouldn't dare to take the risk. So he forced his composure and said to the other party, "Let me talk to her, I want to make sure she's okay, and we'll talk again." ”

"That's not going to work, what if she yells and I kill her by mistake."

This was obviously said to the girl, Zhong Yuan felt that it was very likely that the girl was still safe, so he said: "Don't worry, she should know her situation, and I also need to know that she is okay before I can spend money to save her, isn't it?" ”

"Okay." The kidnapper seemed confident, even a little emboldened: "Wait. ”

After a while, a girl's voice came from the phone: "Uncle, listen to him, save me!" ”

After only saying these seven words, the phone was taken back by the kidnappers: "How is it? Alive, huh? However, if I can't see 500,000 cash before six o'clock in the evening, I can't guarantee it, prepare the money and wait for my call, don't call this number again, I can't get through......" After speaking, he was about to hang up, Zhong Yuan hurriedly said: "Wait, wait, take so much money, the bank wants to make an appointment, you just give me these hours, where can I get so much cash?" ”

"That's your problem." This time the kidnappers didn't listen again and hung up the phone.

Zhong Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then replayed it back, and sure enough, it couldn't be connected.

He sat on the bed and forced himself to calm down. This is also one of his own advantages, he does not panic when encountering problems, and the more tricky things are, the less anxious he is, because he knows very well that being anxious is the most useless, and sometimes it can even backfire.

And, for some reason, he felt that the other party didn't seem to have malicious intent, and this feeling of no reason was so strong.

He first called Wang Yanlin in Shenzhen and asked him to prepare 500,000 cash as soon as possible in BJ's company. This is actually very simple, there must be this kind of emergency cash in the company's safe, and it is completely okay for him to go directly, but since he has handed over the company to Wang Yanlin, he must show due respect.

Sure enough, Wang Yanlin, who received the call, not only readily agreed, but also felt a little moved. This kind of thing has nothing to do with the amount, it is a matter of attitude, if the people who quit the front line are still commanding, it will inevitably make the actual controller fearful, and even estranged. At this point, the relationship between Zhong Yuan and Wang Yanlin is exemplary.

Less than 5 minutes after hanging up the phone, Zhong Yuan received Wang Yanlin's WeChat, and the manager of BJ Company was already on his way to the hotel with cash. Zhong Yuan hesitated a little and dialed another call.

"Hey," a kind voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello Bai Lao, I'm Zhong Yuan." Zhong Yuan sighed lightly and continued: "I really shouldn't call you at this time. Actually, I've already arrived at BJ, and I'd like to visit you in a few days, but there's something I want to discuss with you. ”

"Zhong Yuan," Bai Lao heard his hesitation and said, "Although you and I haven't known each other for a long time, after all, I have lived for so many years, and I am still very accurate in my confident vision of people, so we don't need to be so polite." Tell me, did you encounter something difficult? ”

"That's right," Zhong Yuan said the general story of the matter: "Bai Lao, it takes time to call the police now, and it will take time to arrange, and there are too many flaws in this kidnapping, I don't think the other party seems to be a professional criminal." You are a special and well-informed person, and I would like to ask you if there is a solution to this matter. ”

"Hmm." Bai Yuanshan groaned for a moment and replied, "I just have a suitable candidate here. You give me your address, and I'll take him right away. ”

"Bai Lao, do you want to come here in person? Great, I'll send you the address right away. ”

Zhong Yuan lay on the bed, thinking about several possibilities and how to deal with them. This is another good habit of his, he will rehearse all the situations in his mind before doing things, and think of various details one by one.

After a while, the money arrived. The person who came just said a few words, didn't even drink water, put down the money and left. For this behind-the-scenes boss, some new employees are still very afraid in their hearts, mysterious, legendary, usually they only use these words when they talk about being trapped until Zhong Yuan.

Putting the money aside, Bai Lao also arrived, and behind him, there was also a person.

The man followed Bai Lao into the house, like a shadow, almost silent. But even with Bai Lao in the middle, Zhong Yuan still felt an aura that no one could approach.

He forcibly took his eyes off the person who came and shook hands with Bai Lao: "Bai Lao, thank you." You may be seated. ”

Bai Yuanshan sat on the sofa, the man was still standing next to him, his eyes moved a few times, and he looked at everything in the room as fast as he could. Zhong Yuan carefully looked at this person, sweatpants, hiking boots, and jacket. He is not tall, about 1.7 meters, with dark skin, slashing and axe-like facial features, the essence flowing between the eyebrows and eyes, and the lips are very thin, not handsome, but there is a kind of masculinity. "The legendary aura is 2.8 meters!" Zhong Yuan thought in his heart.

The man was also looking at Zhong Yuan. A figure of less than 1.8 meters, a little fat, an ordinary hairstyle, a garlic nose, and a smile on the corner of his mouth. The appearance is so ordinary that no one will take a second look at it in the crowd. It's just that a pair of eyes are very special, big and bright, and if you just look at the eyes, you are definitely a handsome guy.

The two couldn't help but look at each other for two seconds, two pairs of eyes, one keen, one smart, but neither of them could see through anyone.
