    Chapter 168 Edmund Dantes (thirty-nine)

    Small town in province C, country M.

    The muzzle of the ambush sniper rifle swept across Lu Jia and Zhou Huaijin in turn, and finally aimed at Zhou Chao, the old man who was pushed back to the courtyard. Old thing, let go of Zhou Huaijin from the dog days, and the rest of the allocation will be solved.

    Zhou Chao in the small courtyard was shouting something in fear, but Lu Jia asked Zhou Huaijin with a blank face, "What is this fake foreign devil yelling at?"

    Zhou Huaijin replied reservedly, "I praise you for being a thief."

    "Oh, isn't it?" Lu Jia heard the sound, straightened his collar, and stood at attention, "I'm so embarrassed to praise me like this—Mr. Zhou, it's okay if you don't cooperate, but..."

    His eyes narrowed and he saw a small red dot flash across Zhou Chao's face.

    Lu Jia: "Get out of the way!"

    According to Zhou Chao's youth, he was prepared and reacted very quickly, pressing down on the old man's head and pulling him away. Immediately afterwards, the swirling bullet rubbed the old man's gray hair, and smashed the glass window behind him with a whimper. The Southeast Asian nanny screamed, and Zhou Chao, who shouted "squeak," formed a male and female duet.

    "Damn, there's not even a notice, these people will be out of order when they go abroad!" Lu Jia picked up Zhou Huaijin with one hand and the Southeast Asian babysitter with the other, kicked the door with a shadowless foot, and broke into Zhou Chao's house. .

    Zhou Huaijin was dragged away by him involuntarily, and at the same time he remembered a lyric out of time—a jī in his left hand and a duck in his right.

    At this time, the car horn sounded three times in the backyard, Lu Jia whistled, and whistled and said "go", dragged his family and took the cover of Zhou Chao's house, led people through, and a car with goods The carriage's cart was already waiting behind him: "Old Lu!"

    Lu Jia sighed: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake, and I have to trouble the old man to jump the fence again."

    His voice fell, Zhou Chao, Zhou Huaijin and the little nanny screamed at the same time, and they were thrown together. After the first wave of the gunmen missed their first raid, they immediately chased and intercepted them. .

    Now even Zhou Chao had no choice but to roll and climb onto Lu Jia's thief's car.

    "What's the big move?" After Lu Jia broke, he slammed it on the cargo door, and the bullet hit the iron door dangerously and dangerously, denting a piece, and he shouted at someone, "What are you hiding? , No matter how hard we are, we will all be beaten into a sieve!"

    The voice fell, the sound of motor vehicle engines poured in from all directions, and several cars in hot pursuit had already bypassed Zhou Chao's small courtyard. The big truck looks very stocky, but it is not very flexible, and it is suddenly in a dilemma.

    The other party probably saw that Lu Jia was prepared, and in order to make a quick decision, he became more and more mad. Two small SUVs came in front of each other. There were guns in the cars, and the truck driver hurriedly turned the steering wheel amid the flying bullets. The people in the cargo compartment suddenly seemed to have entered the front-loading washing machine, rolling into a ball.

    The sound of gunshots outside, the sound of wheels scraping the ground, the sound of collision, plus the screams and muffled groans in the cargo compartment... Without opening your eyes, you can imagine a thrilling life hanging by a thread.

    The truck dodged the enemy in front, but did not dodge the pursuers behind. The cumbersome and heavy cargo compartment was rear-ended. There was a loud "bang", and the old man Zhou Chao was so frightened that he hugged his head. , directly peeing his pants.

    Zhou Huaijin was also so shocked that she wanted to vomit. She clasped her fingers on the wall of the cargo compartment like a spasm. She gritted her teeth and propped up her two arms.

    However, his heart was hanging in his throat, and the second rear-end collision he expected did not come. After the truck was hit by someone, it did not stop. Instead, he used his strength to break through the siege, and there was a stumbling noise outside for a while. It just stopped!

    For a while, only heavy breathing and Zhou Chao's crying humming could be heard in the cargo compartment, no one spoke, and then someone turned on the lights in the cargo compartment. Zhou Huaijin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked at each other with a group of companions who had survived the catastrophe.

    Lu Jia was very calm, not panic at all, and looked at Zhou Huaijin very calmly: "Are you alright?"

    "It's okay," Zhou Huaijin smiled bitterly, "I think I'm getting used to it... What's the situation now?"

    "It's safe, don't worry, they shouldn't dare to chase." Lu Jia rolled up his sleeves nonchalantly, and picked up Zhou Chao in disgust, "Master, you are in good health, but not mentally."

    "Don't dare to chase? Why?" The cargo compartment was closed, and the situation outside could not be seen. Zhou Huaijin thought of the "big move" that Lu Jia just called, and couldn't help but have a rich imagination for the driver, "You two last night. What did you prepare in the hotel? Is there any weapon to kill xing in the driver's place?"

    Big pào tube? rocket missile? Or biochemical explosive packs?

    Zhou Huaijin couldn't help but be very worried: "It won't be too ostentatious, it will be troublesome to alert the police here."

    "It's not that foreign," Lu Jia was speechless for a moment, then waved at him and said humbly, "The local way."

    Zhou Huaijin was eager for knowledge: "What kind of way?"

    "Haven't you ever received that kind of mysterious harassing phone calls in China?" Lu Jia smiled at him, "You are in my old age."

    In the villa where Zhang Donglai's siblings stayed, Zhang Ting was staring out the window in a daze. At this moment, she still felt very unreal and vaguely uneasy. When she remembered that she was thousands of miles away from home, and there was no one to speak to, she couldn't help feeling melancholy.

    At this moment, there were sudden footsteps outside the door. Someone knocked on her door twice. Before Zhang Ting could reply, the people outside pushed the door open almost rudely. Zhang Ting replied in surprise. Going over, seeing the eldest "housekeeper" who accompanied them all the way to take care of them, his face was ashen, and he asked her, "Miss Zhang, do you know where your brother went?"

    Zhang Donglai's room had the curtains drawn, and the door has been closed since last night. Before he entered the room, he took two bottles of wine, as if he planned to sleep for 24 hours without jet lag.

    As a well-known playboy in Yancheng, everyone knows what kind of virtue Zhang Donglai is, and knows that he has to sleep until the sun rises, and no one dares to disturb him in the morning, but no one knows when he slipped away!

    The security of this place is top-notch, sneaking in without knowing it, and stealing a big guy like Zhang Donglai is too difficult - he can only run away.

    "Where can he go? Who will he contact?"

    Zhang Donglai is unfamiliar here, not to mention foreign languages, and the ability to memorize the alphabet is enough for nine years of compulsory education. If he goes out alone to buy a pack of cigarettes, he can't afford it, so where else can he go?

    The reason why the Zhang Donglai brothers and sisters were sent abroad was for their safety. Unexpectedly, they both had to be full of tails in the turbulent country. When they arrived in a "safe" place, they stumbled and lost one!

    Zhang Ting was too frightened to say a word.

    The "housekeeper" who was instructed to take care of the two of them looked down at his phone. Someone sent him a photo just now. In the photo, Zhang Donglai was lying there curled up, with a bottle of wine that he took away yesterday. He closed his eyes. I don't know if he fell asleep or... There is a sentence attached to the bottom of the photo: "If you chase after him again, we can only return them to you in pieces."

    The butler's hands were shaking a little. Zhang chūnling was such a precious son, he regarded it as his lifeblood. Before he came here, he had specially instructed him that nothing else would matter. The two brothers and sisters would be the priority in everything else, in case something happened to him... …

    "Do you know Zhou Huaijin in Donglai?"

    "Who?" Zhang Ting was a little confused at first, but it took a while to remember, "No, I haven't heard of it, he seems to know someone with the surname Zhou, the one who had an accident a while ago, and he didn't communicate much before. Brother said that person was a fool... what a fool."

    At that time, the person in charge of the Zhou family in China was Zheng Kaifeng. Zhou Huaijin was not like the heartless Zhou Huaixin. He would not show up on Zheng Kaifeng's territory unless it was absolutely necessary, and he would not return to China. Moreover, this person was born in a famous school. Zhang Donglai and the dudes belonged to two worlds. They couldn't pee in a single pot, and there was no set. The "housekeeper" couldn't imagine how the surnamed Zhou got Zhang Donglai away.

    "What's the matter?" Zhang Ting accidentally swiped the photo on his phone and grabbed the "housekeeper"'s arm, "Did something happen to my brother? He...he was fine yesterday, but he was kidnapped. ?"

    The "housekeeper" was shaken by her and broke into a cold sweat.

    Zhang Ting said in a panic, "But... but I'm right next door, and I didn't hear anything. Besides, there are so many of us... If I knew that the security abroad was so bad, I wouldn't make a fuss about going abroad, uncle, what should I do now? How much do they want? I'm going to call Dad."

    "No, wait!" The "housekeeper" shuddered at her last words, and quickly squeezed out a smile, "How come there are so many kidnappings? Your brother may have been called out by a friend, and he likes to play, it's fine. , he has a positioning thing on him, you put..."

    The voice of the "housekeeper" faded, and another photo came, and the smile squeezed out by the "housekeeper" could no longer be maintained - the unusable mobile phone on Zhang Donglai's body, the button on his clothes, and the tracker in his belt are not bad. , were all found and lined up together, and the other party also left a message saying, "Are you coming to see us?"

    The "housekeeper" looked gloomy, his hands were shaking, and he returned the information: "What do you want?"

    With a "ding", the information came back quite quickly. A one-inch photo was sent over. The "housekeeper" was stunned for a moment, then raised his head slowly, and everyone's eyes followed him on a person in the villa for a while.

    The cryptic message said: "I want this person to be exchanged."

    The "housekeeper" was stunned. This time, this person was the one who took over from Su Cheng, who was sent abroad with Zhang Donglai and his brothers and sisters to avoid investigation!

    The mysterious message then sent a time and address: "If you want to live, if you can't deliver it within the stipulated time, I will cut something on the young master and give it to you. Don't play tricks, the young master is worth more than this garbage."

    The "housekeeper" dropped the phone angrily under Zhang Ting's tearful eyes.

    Yancheng——

    When the investigation team secretly shifted the focus of the investigation to Zhang chūn for a long time, Luo Wenzhou returned to the city bureau, which was headless.

    "What do you have?" Luo Wenzhou asked Fei Du strangely.

    "This." Fei Du took out his messy mobile phone and swiped out a circle of friends for Luo Wenzhou to see. A friend with the note name "Philosopher" sent two photos, named "Boring", one Zhang is a selfie of himself, and the other is a scene in a living room. A group of people are carrying a pile of suitcases, as if they are arranging their luggage and planning to live for a long time.

    "This is Zhang Donglai?" Luo Wenzhou was stunned for a moment, then scanned around, not seeing anything in the photo, "What photo did he post at this time? What's wrong with this photo?"

    "Of course you don't know, but Su Cheng must know. Not only do they know each other, but they should also be quite close. After all, they had conspired to kill me on my way back to the company for investigation..."

    Luo Wenzhou: "What!"

    "Shh—" Fei Du stretched out a finger and tapped it in front of Luo Wenzhou's lips.

    Luo Wenzhou's response was that he slapped the back of his head with a slap, interrupting Fei Du's pretending to be godless.

    Fei Du: "..."

    Luo Wenzhou's unruly hair had been glued into a bunch, and the somewhat mysterious smile on President Fei's face suddenly cracked.

    "Fei Du, your grandson, didn't you swore to tell me that you were all right? I fucking thought you were reliable!"

    "It's all right," Fei Du silently took two steps back, preventing Luo Wenzhou from making another move, "Su Cheng's heart is daring and small, if he feels that I'm guarding him, he'll know what happened, and he'll run away immediately. It's useless like him. There is no other purpose than silence. However, Su Cheng disappeared in the middle of the way. According to Zhang chūnling's previous style of doing things, at this time he should respond immediately and arrange a way back for himself. The person who came into contact with Su Cheng could not be For the wanted criminals he has raised, I guess he will not rashly deal with his confidants at such times. The biggest possibility is to leave all those who have contacted Su Cheng, and send them together with his own weakness to a place he thinks is safe. The place."

    Luo Wenzhou grabbed him by the collar and dragged the man back to him: "It's too coincidental that Zhang Dong came to this daddy."

    "Unfortunately, he trusts me." Fei Du said, for some unknown reason, this time he didn't laugh or use the tone he used to show off to the person he liked, he just said plainly, "Zhang Donglai is a man who can't stand loneliness. People who can't hold their breath suddenly go to an unfamiliar place, and will complain to the person he thinks is reliable at the first time. I deceived him, and the photos were taken by me pretending to be a beautiful woman. "

    "When did you arrange it?"

    "On the way to the company to be investigated." Fei Du said, "Su Cheng is the bait I deliberately left behind, and there are people around him watching me."

    Luo Wenzhou: "Where is Su Cheng now?"

    Fei Du took out his cell phone from Luo Wenzhou's inner pocket of his shirt, and dialed a number. The other party seemed to be waiting for him, and the phone was connected as soon as he dialed it.

    "Weiwei," Fei Du said in a very soft voice, "it's me."

    "Mr. Fei, my God, I've been waiting for your call for a long time!" The girl's voice came from the speakerphone, and the speed was a bit incoherent, "I'm so worried, Brother Lu, are they all going well? Contact me...I don't even know what to do!"

    Fei Du smiled: "It's over soon—is my sister here?"

    "Yes, wait a minute."

    After a while, a low female voice came over the phone: "I'm Wei Lan."

    Wei Wei's biological father died early, and her mother was an irresponsible alcoholic who had a bad reputation in the local area. When she was a child, other children bullied her and said she was a "wild son of a bitch". She has an elder sister who is seven years older. She has been protecting her since she was a child, she was rebellious, she dropped out of school early and ran away. She wanted to break out into the world and take her little sister out of this hellish home, but the world is like a prison, how can it be so easy to break into?

    After her sister left, the young Wei Wei remarried with her mother, but her life did not get better, instead it was made worse by the inhumanity of her entrustment. Qin shòu's stepfather caused the young girl an unforgettable nightmare until she finally mustered the courage to escape from the terrifying "home" and was rescued by Fei Du's foundation.

    At the beginning, the foundation helped her find her sister who had been away from home for many years, and tried to get justice for her. However, when the evidence was solid and the police came to arrest her, Wei Wei's stepfather absconded in fear of the crime, and his body was found in the house. He was found in a small pond about three kilometers away from his home. He died of a knife wound. He was completely naked. Multiple organs were removed from his body, and he was soaked in the mud with his head down.

    After the murderer finished disposing of the corpse, he left with blood stains very calmly. On the way, he met a witness who passed by. He even smiled at the witness, and the murder weapon was on the heart of the corpse, with the murderer's fingerprints on it. .

    Based on the restoration of eyewitnesses' portraits and the fingerprints on the murder weapon, the local police believed that Wei Lan's sister Wei Lan, who had been away from home for many years, was suspected of committing a major crime, and issued a local arrest warrant.

    The foundation and the police have been looking for her all these years, but she disappeared out of thin air and became one of the wanted criminals being reared until Fei Du put Su Cheng next to him to monitor the idiot and reported that Su Cheng had recruited an identity Unidentified female assistant.

    "I can sell this old guy now, right?" Wei Lan smiled softly.

    Fei Du instructed in a deep voice, "You have to be careful."

    Wei Lan snorted nonchalantly: "Do you talk too much? Little baby, you were still breastfeeding at home when the old lady stabbed people."

    Fei Du didn't care about her rude words, and just asked, "Have you made up your mind?"

    After all, she has killed people, after all, she is a wanted criminal. If she reveals this time, she will spend the rest of her life in prison.

    "Then you don't have to worry about it," Wei Lan said. "Fei Du, remember what you promised me."

    The author has something to say: Guiding signs: Wei Wei's background and playing time are in chapter 120, and Wei Lan and Fei Du's secret songs are in chapter 97.
