riddle

Just as Gu Ci fell asleep, the cell phone they threw aside suddenly turned on, and then the phone rang inappropriately.

He half-opened his eyes, stretched out his hand, touched the phone, glanced at the name jumping on the phone screen, put it to his ear and asked a little confusedly: "Is there something wrong?"

"Zhifeng and Xiaoxiao were kidnapped."

"What?" Gu Cishuang opened his eyes and sat up from the sofa.

Han Nuoshang was also awakened this time, his forehead was bumped by Gu Ci, and he patted his head in pain. He suspected that he was about to have a concussion.

"what happened?"

Gu Ci hung up the phone and turned around: "Huang Zhe's call, he said that the two children were kidnapped."

kidnapping?

Han Nuoshang immediately came to his senses when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

"I don't know..." Gu Ci pressed his temple wearily, "Huang Zhe will come over later, let's talk about it after we meet."

After speaking, he pulled Han Nuoshang up and walked outside.

It's impossible to sleep, let's get up and work!

When the two came out, everyone seemed to be busy, and they didn't say anything when they saw them come out.

Han Nuoshang walked towards them: "Have you found anything?"

"We rechecked the relationship between those characters more than ten years ago, and found that they have some subtle connections with Cheng Yuan." Lin Chenyi turned the computer in his hand over.

The above is a character relationship diagram, which introduces the relationship between each person in detail.

The first is Jin Ke. He and his wife Hu Zihe are both professors at Tongda University. They knew Cheng Yuan who sometimes gave lectures at Tongda University. They are colleagues.

And they not only know Cheng Yuan, Jin Ke and his wife and Liu Yu are actually good friends.

And Qi Zhao was the orphan of a wife-killing case that Cheng Yuan dealt with at that time. At that time, Cheng Yuan seemed to pay special attention to that case, and often had contact with Qi Zhao.

And Wang Yangdong, when the Wang family was not very rich, Wang Yangdong was once imprisoned in the detention center for drinking and making trouble. At that time, Cheng Yuan just came back from vacation and made a record for him in person.

At that time, Wang Yangdong actually listened to Cheng Yuan's words very much.

"Furthermore, it's the serial murder case 12 years ago." Lin Chenyi raised his head and glanced at everyone, "The deceased at that time were more or less related to Cheng Yuan, for example... the father of the deputy team used to be neighbors with Cheng Yuan .”

When everyone heard these words, they couldn't help but frown. These things are all around Cheng Yuan?Or did he plan it all by himself?

Is he playing games with the lives of people he knows?What exactly does Cheng Yuan want to do?

At this time, Huang Zhe hurried in from the outside: "Children Zhifeng and Xiaoxiao went out to the Wetland Park today. They were hijacked on the way. The driver and bodyguards are still in the hospital."

Gu Ci couldn't help tightening his hands: "Where did it happen?"

"On the main road of South Road." Huang Zhe calmed down and pushed a black card over. "This is a driving recorder, but it seems to be damaged. Please take a look first."

Lin Chenyi immediately took the card over and quickly repaired it...

About ten minutes later, Lin Chenyi connected the recorder to the computer.

"Fortunately, it was just an ordinary damage, and the contents were not removed."

After a while, the screen was displayed.

The driver and the bodyguard were in the front seat, and another bodyguard was playing with the two children in the back seat. Lu Zhifeng and Bu Xiao were sitting in the back seat discussing something.

Lu Zhifeng is trying his best to tease Bu Xiaoxiao, and Bu Xiao is also responding to him, but obviously not as enthusiastic as Lu Zhifeng.

Suddenly, the brakes were slammed, and several people suddenly ran out from the side of the road and stopped the car. The driver and the bodyguards on the side couldn't help but frowned, a little confused and worried.

Those people didn't wait for them to react, they rushed up suddenly, smashed the car window, and stretched out their hands to forcefully open the car door.

Huang Zhe's selection of bodyguards has good character and ability, but he can't bear the fact that there are too many families. Some of them are dragging the bodyguard and driver, while others are trying to catch the two children.

The bodyguard driver, who was still fighting, saw the children falling into their hands, and was startled, but exposed his weakness.

That group of people was also shrewd. Seeing the bodyguard's weakness, they quickly attacked...

And not only did they fail to protect the two children, but they were thrown to the ground by a stick.

But Lu Zhifeng and Bu Xiao are not the kind of people who will obediently catch them without a fight, and they are not afraid of these people.

Bu Xiao just wanted to stay with Lu Zhifeng, but the person behind him framed his neck and grabbed him.

In a panic, he directly bit the hand of the person who was holding him, bleeding from the bite.

The man let out a cry of pain and let go of his hand, while Bu Xiao ran towards Lu Zhifeng who was still baring his teeth and claws on the other side.

After only two steps, he was knocked out by the man behind him with a knife in his hand.

Seeing Bu Xiao fainted, Lu Zhifeng struggled even more fiercely, those people had no choice but to knock him out as well, carried him into a van and fled.

"I've already checked the license plate number." Lin Chenyi's hand was beating rapidly on the computer keyboard. "It's also a lost car. The owner reported it two days ago. The missing place is also at Tongda University."

Gu Ci's voice sank several degrees: "Is there a way to find out the identities of those people?"

"No." Lin Chenyi shook his head helplessly. "Whether it's car theft or kidnapping, these people are wearing masks and sun hats. If you search and compare them one by one with some of their superficial features, it's like finding a needle in a haystack. And the needle may not necessarily be in the sea."

Han Nuoshang shook his head vigorously, looked at Huang Zhe at the side: "Does anyone know the schedule of those two children today?"

Huang Zhe thought for a while and said, "There are not many people, except for the driver's bodyguard and family members, there is also Xiaoxiao's psychiatrist."

Are you studying psychology?

Gu Ci's eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly remembered the last time Lu Zhifeng and Bu Xiao visited the hospital.

The housekeeper in his 30s was also Bu Xiao's psychiatrist. At that time, Gu Ci looked at him and didn't feel too much, nor did he have a sense of crisis, but...

Huang Zhe took out his mobile phone to call the psychiatrist, but he couldn't get through.

"No..." Huang Zhe gritted his teeth and said, "I can't contact him anymore!"

This psychiatrist is the housekeeper he found for the two children Lu Zhifeng and Bu Xiao. Now that something happened, it is impossible for him not to blame himself.

Lin Chenyi quickly called up the psychiatrist's information.

Hua Zhihuo is the name of the doctor. He is 35 years old and was born on ×××××××year. His identity information and resume are all normal...

Huang Zhe naturally checked the information, and it was precisely because of this that he dared to let this person take care of the two children, but he didn't expect that something would happen.

Lin Chenyi started to work on the computer again: "Hua Zhihuo also came from Tongda University, his previous mentor... was Cheng Yuan."

"Find a way to dig out this Hua Zhihuo for me." Han Nuoshang glanced at the silent Gu Ci standing beside him, and his voice couldn't help but sink a lot, "No matter what method you use, give him to me." Get it out."

Lin Chenyi made an OK gesture, this is not difficult.

Hua Zhihuo is an adult who needs to survive. Unlike Cheng Yuan, he is not able to find such a place that no one knows to hide himself securely. Yuan City is currently undergoing rectification, and he has no way to leave Yuan City. .

Furthermore, Hua Zhihuo should be just a pawn in Cheng Yuan's eyes, as long as Cheng Yuan didn't hide him, it would not be difficult to find him.

Lin Chenyi started to work here, Huang Zhe looked at the crowd, and found that he could not be of much help by staying here, so he had to say 'contact us anytime if necessary', and then left.

Han Nuoshang pulled Gu Ci aside, tapped his wrist lightly with his fingers, trying to comfort him.

Gu Ci just smiled back at him, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

It's better not to laugh than to laugh, Han Nuoshang panicked when he saw it, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

She could only hold his hand tightly, sighing silently in her heart.

Everyone was struggling with each other like this, until an hour later, news finally came from Lin Chenyi.

"Yes, Hua Zhihuo was spending money in a convenience store, and it was captured by surveillance." Lin Chenyi said, "...he should live in a hotel next to the convenience store, but there is no check-in for him."

Han Nuoshang: "Find someone to find him first, and he must be brought back to me."

"Yes."

There is no occupancy record, he can ask others to open a room for him, and then live in it by himself, which doesn't mean anything.

……

Hua Zhihuo walked into his room with the food, looked at the somewhat dark room, and sighed helplessly.

He didn't know if what he was doing was worth it.

Now that the police have been alerted, he hopes that the police can quickly find the two children, so that he can feel at ease.

Those two children are so innocent, he didn't want to do this, but the man said that he would not hurt them, so the man's words should be trusted.

This is what I owed to that person, and this time I will pay it off!

Hua Zhihuo gritted his teeth, forced himself to stop thinking about these things, put down the fast food in his hand, and was about to eat...

"Deng Deng" came two knocks on the door.

"Who is it?" Hua Zhihuo asked cautiously.

"Sir, I'm from the cleaning company, can you open the door?" A crisp female voice sounded.

Hua Zhihuo was stunned for a moment, feeling a little suspicious in his heart, but he still walked over and opened the door.

A handcuff glowing with white light appeared in front of him. Song Zhiyue poked her head out from behind the handcuff, and said with a smile to Hua Zhi: "Mr. Hua, it was really hard for us to find you."

"Now, please come with us!" Chu Han stood on the other side and looked at him.

……

Gu Ci stood in the monitoring room and looked at the dejected man, as if he was thinking about something.

Han Nuoshang stood beside him and looked at him. He hadn't taken his gaze away for a moment for a long time. Sometimes this person would lose his hands, so it's safer to just stare at him.

Ying Hongxue helped Lin Chenyi into the interrogation room, and sat down in front of Hua Zhihuo together.

"Lu Zhifeng and Bu Xiao are both very cute children, aren't they?" Ying Hongxue took out a photo of the two children and placed it in front of Hua Zhihuo.

Hua Zhihuo raised his head, and took the photo into his hands - yes!They are really cute.

"You also know that Bu Xiao has serious psychological problems. Do you know what being kidnapped means to him?"

"He'll be fine." Hua Zhihuo raised his head and retorted, as if to comfort himself, he repeated "he'll be fine."

Ying Hongxue didn't care about what he said: "After so many years, do you think he is still the teacher you knew back then?"

"Bu Xiao has such severe PTSD now, and he forced it out." Lin Chenyi also said in a cold voice.

They can almost confirm that the person behind Wang Yangdong's advice is Cheng Yuan.

He is the culprit who turned a sunny boy like Bu Xiao into the lonely, cowardly and gloomy one he is now.

Hua Zhihuo froze for a moment, but didn't speak.

"You also study psychology, you are a senior." Ying Hongxue sighed, "You don't want to believe that Cheng Yuan is such a person... But did you harm those two children just to deceive your heart? "

"They did nothing wrong, and they are all kind and lovely children. You are so cruel, and want to kill them?" It is considered professional, but it is enough to bluff a person.

"Think about it carefully, is Cheng Yuan sincere to you?"

Hua Zhihuo raised his head and looked at the two of them, feeling very conflicted in his heart...

"Teacher Cheng, he saved my life." Hua Zhihuo's eyes turned red, "I owe him this."

"Why do you ask those two children to come and pay back what you owe him?" Lin Chenyi frowned, "Did you let those two children lose their lives for your own life?"

"I...don't know." Hua Zhihuo raised his free hand and wiped his eyes, "I just, just..."

Ying Hongxue looked up at him: "I just told Cheng Yuan the whereabouts of those two children, and didn't do anything else, right?"

Hua Zhihuo nodded.

"Didn't you ask him what he wanted to do? I can't believe you're so inquisitive."

After all, Ying Hongxue is also studying psychology, and she knows that people who choose this subject will be somewhat curious.

Besides, Hua Zhihuo is also the psychiatrist of those two children, even if he owes Cheng Yuan his life, he shouldn't ignore everything.

"I... asked." Hua Zhihuo said, "He said he wanted to see the child's mental state, maybe he could cure him!"

Lin Chenyi was surprised: "Did you believe it?"

Hua Zhihuo didn't speak, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he finally helped Cheng Yuan.

Maybe he didn't believe it in his heart, but that was his teacher after all, even though he knew that person was lying to him, he was still willing to be deceived by him.

This is self-deception!

"Doctor Hua." Ying Hongxue sighed, "Perhaps Cheng Yuan was once an important family member and mentor to you... But Zhifeng and Xiaoxiao are also important people to us, and they are just children , do you have the heart to let them suffer this kind of crime at a young age?"

Hua Zhihuo turned his eyes and stared at Ying Hongxue for a long time, sighed, and said, "It's the smell of the boat."

Lin Chenyi: "???"

Ying Hongxue also looked at him with some confusion: "What do you mean?"

"I smell a boat on... Teacher Cheng."

Hua Zhihuo seemed to have given up struggling, and the two little lives were indeed too heavy for him.

"I grew up by the sea, so I am very familiar with this smell. He should have lived on the boat for a long time, so he has that smell on him." Hua Zhihuo wiped his face, "And... I don't remember what Teacher Cheng looks like, he must have given me a hint! Am I not worthy of being a doctor?"

Ying Hongxue didn't speak, she knew that this person didn't need her answer, what she needed was to figure it out by herself.

Lin Chenyi on the one side got busy again, and he was typing on the keyboard while muttering: "Just say why I didn't find it, it turned out that I hid on the boat, you wait for me, I will find a way to get you out of."

Ying Hongxue heard his muttering, a smile stained her face, she reached out to help him: "Don't work hard, go outside and work hard."

Working in the interrogation room will have a great impact on people's mental state unconsciously. Ying Hongxue is very careful about her boyfriend's mental health.

"Deputy Gu."

Gu Ci turned his head and saw Lin Yu standing at the door of the monitoring room looking at him.

Han Nuoshang also looked at him with some doubts: "Lin Yu? Why are you here?"

Lin Yu didn't answer Han Nuoshang, but still focused on Gu Ci: "Deputy Captain Gu, I want to chat with you alone, is that okay?"

Gu Ci frowned in confusion, but nodded and walked out with him.

Han Nuoshang looked at the backs of the two of them and couldn't help frowning his eyebrows. He always felt that Lin Yu was a little weird today.
