    Lu Hui frowned: "Who are you?"

    "Your team members are in my hands," the man said.

    Lu Hui looked slightly nervous, but his voice was still indifferent and steady: "So?"

    "The factory by the Zhonglin Highway used to be a paper factory," the man said. "I believe you will find me soon."

    The man hangs up.

    Lu Hui clenched his phone tightly and said, "Don't watch the video, go to the original paper mill on Zhonglin Highway."

    "...Wait." Wei Congjia grabbed Lu Hui's arm, "They're here for you."

    "I know." Lu Hui's expression was calm, he didn't even raise his eyebrows, "but I have to go."

    "There is no need to guess at all for the follow-up development." Wei Congjia said, "They proposed an exchange, and you agreed, the two of you will die together."

    "Do I have any other options?" Lu Hui stood up, "No, so I'm going."

    "Because Ji Fanyang is your friend?" Wei Congjia asked.

    Lu Hui hesitated for a while and said, "Because Ji Fanyang is the son of Commander Ji."

    "Bullshit." Wei Congjia was already angry.

    Lu Hui was not afraid: "Is it meaningful to explore the relationship between Ji Fanyang and me now?" He broke free from Wei Congjia's hand and put on a down jacket, "Notify the public security bureaus of Linhua City and Zhongchuan City that Zhonglin Highway belongs to the junction area. It’s not good to divide the area.”

    Lu An said, "I'll drive you there. Xiao Wei will go to the Zhongchuan City Public Security Bureau to inform someone."

    Wei Congjia was stunned for a while and said, "Okay."

    Sister Lu An and Lu Hui walked out of the office, Lu Hui pursed his lips: "Sister, do you support?"

    "Since you have admitted that Xiaoji is your friend, you should take on the responsibility of being a friend." Lu An said, her beautiful eyes were like cold springs, "No matter how you choose to express this friendship, you should try it. one time."

    Lu Hui nodded, and there was an unidentified persistent emotion in his black pupils.

    Chapter 38 Factory

    Lu Hui sat quietly in the passenger seat, Lu An put her hands on the steering wheel, and her eyes were straight ahead. The car was driving on the highway, and the bare street trees on both sides quickly retreated.

    In the middle of winter, the thick snow reflects the crystal luster, and a few birds are like arrows passing through the branches.

    In the distance, a gray-black abandoned factory stands on the snow, and three or five blue and white police cars are parked on the side of the road.

    "It's here." Lu An stepped on the brakes, and when she stopped, she pulled out the key and said, "Let's go."

    Lu Hui nodded. He seemed to be nervous for no reason. He should be nervous. The kidnapped person was a friend he admitted.

    But once again, the choice he made at the age of fourteen was put on the desk again, and his fate repeated itself. Even though Lu Hui was thirty-two years old, he was still an extremely clumsy person.

    "Team Leader Lu." The detective from the Linhua City Bureau came to greet him, with a worried expression, "The kidnapper claims to see you."

    "Yeah." Lu Hui agreed, he followed in the footsteps of the detective, "What do you know now?"

    "We also just arrived." The detective said, "I had a phone call with the kidnapper, and he said back and forth that he wanted to see you."

    Lu Hui said, "I see."

    Lu An and Lu Hui walked into the monitoring car together. Lu Hui nodded to Gao Bureau and took the call: "I'm Lu Hui."

    "Lu Hui." The kidnapper's voice came, without using a voice changer, it sounded like the voice of a tired middle-aged man, "So you are Lu Hui."

    "Your purpose." Lu Hui asked.

    "Exchange him for you." The man replied.

    Lu Hui pondered: "Why do you think I would sacrifice myself for him?"

    "..." The man choked and said, "Because he is your team member."

    "It seems that you have done some homework." Lu Hui said, "let him answer the phone, I want to make sure he is still alive."

    "Not now," the man said. "Let's talk about something else."

    "Why not?" Lu Hui pursed his lips, trying to keep his voice calm.

    "The case you're investigating," the man said.

    "You did it." Lu Hui said.

    "Yes." The man replied, "Congratulations on closing the case."

    "So now, are you committing suicide or surrendering yourself?" Lu Hui asked.

    The man laughed: "I kidnapped someone, what do you think?"

    "You pulled me to commit suicide together." Lu Hui said, "and you won't let him go at all."

    "Yes," said the man, "so you come?"

    "Let him answer the phone." Lu Hui demanded, "I want to hear his voice."

    The other end of the phone rang incessantly, Lu Hui waited patiently for a while, and a vague voice came: "Lu Group?"

    "Well." Lu Hui was suddenly nervous, his little fingers curled up, and he held the receiver tightly, "You..."

    "Don't come." Ji Fanyang interrupted Lu Hui, "Don't think about it, don't think about it at all."

    "This is a dead end." Lu Hui said, his voice indifferent, as if life and death were put aside, "I have to go in."

    "No, you have no obligation to save me." Ji Fanyang said, "I know you have a tendency to self-destruct. That time at the pond, you wanted to jump off, right?"

    "...I didn't." Lu Hui denied.

    "You cowardly bastard." Ji Fanyang scolded, "Don't come in."

    "You can't decide this." Lu Hui acted like a child, and he hung up the phone neatly.

    Director Gao looked up at him: "Are you going in?"

    "Is there any other way?" Lu Hui turned his head to look at the armed police and snipers playing with firearms outside the window, "If they are useful, you won't ask me."

    "It's too dark in the factory, and the view is not good," Gao Ju said. "They were hiding behind the wall and couldn't be shot from the window."

    "What else?" Lu Hui asked.

    "It is suspected that a mine//pipe was buried around the factory." Gao Ju said, "You are right, he will die together."

    "Well." Lu Hui replied.

    "You want to go in?" Rao Feifei walked into the monitor car, and Yang Jie came in together.

    Lu Hui's dark eyes are like two deep wells: "Is there any other choice?"

    "We can negotiate." Rao Feifei said.

    Lu Hui smiled sarcastically: "Little girl, the kidnapper just admitted that he did the case in our hands."

    "He has no way out." Yang Jie said.

    "Ji Fanyang is the son of the army commander, he can't die." Lu Hui said.

    "Fuck." Gao Ju rarely exploded, he patted the table, "You can die if the commander's son can't die? Do you have nine lives?"

    "..." Lu Hui blinked, "I try not to die."

    "Does your sister agree?" Yang Jie asked.

    Lu Hui was silent.

    Rao Feifei reached out and pulled Lu Hui's arm out of the monitor car, and the two stood still in the snow.

    "How is it?" Lu An and Wei Congjia, who had just arrived, came over to surround Lu Hui.

    "The kidnapper asked him to go in and replace Ji Fanyang." Rao Feifei said.

    "No." Wei Congjia objected.

    Lu An stared at Lu Hui: "Do you want to go in?"

    "I..." Facing the person closest to him, Lu Hui became less certain, "I have to go in, I'm the team leader."
