After Redemption of Paranoid Protagonist [Transmigration Book]

The phone rang for a while before being picked up, the voice on the other end was a bit noisy.

Yuan Tuo's familiar voice came over: "Hello?"

Tong Juan suddenly felt more at ease, and asked, "Aren't you at home?"

Yuan Tuo said: "I'm attending an exhibition in Gaokai District, but it's not too important. If you have something to do, I can go back now."

In front of Tong Juan, he never said anything important about himself, as if he must seize every opportunity the two of them meet.

The Gaokai District is not close to here, Tong Jun was afraid that Yuan Tuo would rush back in a hurry, so he said, "Don't, I'm fine, I'm just free. You stay there, I'll drive over to find you later, and I'll go for a drive by the way .When I arrive, I guess yours will be about the same.”

He knew how to drive in the real world, and he just passed his driver's license test this winter vacation.

After negotiating with Yuan Tuo, Tong Jun patted the hedgehog who was staring at the trash can, said "You can watch the house", and went out to pick up the car.

He drove on the road, and the car was driving on the straight road. Tong Jun was thinking about what Tong Lei said.

He suddenly thought, he experienced a fire in the book and once in reality. The time, place, and people involved in the two fires were different, but can it be proved that it has nothing to do with it?

If it matters, what can it matter?

Tong Jun knew that he wasn't a business guy, and he wasn't interested in it at all. Don't worry about his family's business, he didn't even bother to listen.

He didn't know if Tong's family had cooperated with Gao's family in the real world, or had they encountered an unsolved case where bodies were found twice.

Because many things seem to be completely irrelevant on the surface, so I usually don't connect them, but now I think about it one by one, and it seems that there is something wrong.

Tong Jun tried to assume that if the cause of the fire in the real world and the world in the book were the same, then the strange thing was only in the found bones.

This old case has nothing to do with their family at all, so could it be because of some secret discovered by accident?

Like the corpse dug up again.

secret... secret...

There was a big turn in front of him, and the road was a bit uneven. Tong Juan turned left and turned the steering wheel, his body also tilted, and was pulled back by the seat belt.

This scene suddenly came up like a nightmare. He felt that he had experienced it somewhere, but at that time it seemed that he was not the one driving the car.

Someone's voice was almost distorted, screaming in his ear: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your secret...you let me go—"

The voice was so real, piercing his periosteum high and sharply, Tong Jun even trembled with his fingers, and hurriedly parked the car on the side of the road.

He lay on the steering wheel for a while, and someone knocked on the window: "Sir, are you okay?"

Tong Jun said, "I'm fine, thank you."

A real person said this to him, which made Tong Jun feel better.

He told Yuan Tuo that he would look for him after a while. Tong Jun looked at his watch and saw that it was still early, so he slowly drove the car to the outside of a noodle restaurant not far ahead, went in and sat down.

The road between the urban area and the Gaokai District is relatively barren, and you can even see goats beside the road, and the noodle restaurants are also dilapidated.

Tong Jun wanted to drink a cup of coffee because he was dreaming, his chest felt tight, he had to choose from the menu for a long time, and he could only order a bottle of cold beer.

After drinking the car, he couldn't drive, so he had to call Yuan Tuo to pick him up.

He sat there and drank the beer one gulp at a time, as if he vaguely remembered that he was in the real world. When Shao Yulin was very young, she said she would take him out to play, and Tong Jun was carried into the car by her, and went a place.

Someone shook the wine glass and dipped him in some wine with chopsticks. He coughed from choking, and there were laughter from men and women around him.

Such fragmentary fragments flashed in memory. It stands to reason that Shao Yulin was already old enough to remember when she passed away, but the impressions about her mother were all fragmentary fragments.

Those experiences in the nightmare, and the memories that loomed intermittently at this time, made people unable to distinguish the real from the fake, as if the whole world around them had suddenly become a strange world.

Tong Jun suddenly felt horrified, and he couldn't get to the bottom of the reason behind it, because he had an instinctive fear of the truth.

While he was in a trance, a guest came over with a noodle bowl and sat opposite him.

Tong Jun was preoccupied and didn't want to be disturbed. When the safe distance was suddenly invaded, he couldn't help showing a bit of resistance on his face.

The other party said to him apologetically, "I'm sorry, there is an air leak by the window, I'll share a table with you."

Tong Jun glanced at the seat by the window. This small shop is doing a good business. The shop is almost full. Only the seats by the window are vacant. It must be quite cold.

He nodded and said "You are welcome", and the man sat down and began to eat the pan mee.

Although this man was not very good-looking and his clothes looked a bit shabby, he ate the noodles very gracefully. Tong Jun glanced at it, smelled the aroma of the noodles, and felt that his stomach was a little empty, but he couldn't whet his appetite at all, so he put down his beer Drank most of it.

With one hand resting on the table, he touched the cell phone in his trouser pocket with the other, hesitating whether to call Shao Yulin or not.

But it seemed useless to ask her. What Tong Jun wanted to know was what he had forgotten in the real world, not the childhood in the book.

When he was thinking about it, the man on the opposite side had already finished a whole bowl of pan noodles and was drinking soup.

He moved slowly and enjoyed it very much, and drank the whole bowl of soup with chili red oil.

Just by looking at his expression, you will feel that this bowl of noodles is the most delicious thing in the world.

At this moment, Tong Jun's cell phone rang, and it was Gunzi who called him, saying that he found Li Xinli's mother and son at the airport together, looking flustered and wondering what the hell he was doing.

They contacted Yuan Tuo first, but the other end might be busy, so they didn't answer the phone for the time being.

Tong Jun said: "Are they going to register? What time does the plane leave and where are they going?"

Gun Zi said: "I'm still looking into what air tickets they bought, but at present, due to the weather, the departure of all flights has been delayed, and they can't leave no matter where they are going."

Tong Jun said: "Okay, then please keep an eye on it."

They stared at Li Xinli, mainly to observe whether the other party had contact with Zheng Anqiu in private, so as to find out Zheng Anqiu's whereabouts. Now it seems that they should be thinking too much.

After he finished speaking, he put the mobile phone back into his pocket, touched some change by the way, and prepared to check out and leave.

The man eating noodles on the opposite side looked at Tong Jun and said, "I'll settle the bill for this table. Thank you for allowing me to sit here."

Tong Jun was stunned, and said, "You're welcome, you should sit wherever you want. I'll do it myself."

The man was noncommittal, and asked him again: "Are you looking for someone?"

Tong Jun felt that he was talking too much and didn't want to talk too much, so he just said "um" casually and got up to leave.

The man smiled, relaxed his body and looked up at him, leaning on the back of the chair, and said slowly: "Sometimes, fate is a very subtle thing. Anything that is too deliberate will come to nothing. Opportunities are often hidden." In some overlooked detail."

Tong Jun paused, then suddenly turned around.

The other party looked up at him with a smile, and whispered, "Guess who I am?"

There is no transformation scene in supernatural movies, and the man in front of him still looks strange and unattractive.

But at this moment, his tone, expression, and posture are all so familiar and subtle, and even the feeling of his entire face seems to be different from just now.

Ordinary has become a disguise, and his smile has added cunning. He looked over faintly, his eyes were filled with bottomless darkness, and he was as indifferent as a butcher sizing up a lamb for slaughter.

Zheng Anqiu!

This almost terrifying name flashed across his mind like lightning.

Just as Tong Jun wanted to say something, he felt his tongue was astringent, his limbs were numb and weak, and his eyelids couldn't stop drooping. He wished he could close them the next moment and never open them again.

He almost slumped back to his seat. At the last moment of sobriety, thoughts were spinning in his mind, and the mobile phone slipped out of his trouser pocket without a sound, and was thrown into the waste paper basket under the table.

There was soft toilet paper underneath, this did not cause any movement, but it also exhausted Tong Juan's last bit of strength.

Zheng Anqiu looked at him with satisfaction, reached out and stroked Tong Jun's hair.

"Look at your child, you are not as cute as you were when you were a child." He blamed affectionately, "Don't you still have to be obedient if you don't want uncle to buy you a drink?"

He settled the dough and beer money for the two of them, reached out to help Tong Jun up, and walked out with him.

Tong Jun felt that he had fallen into a very strange state.

His limbs were weak, his body didn't obey orders, he was dragged around by Zheng Anqiu, almost like a marionette, he couldn't help but follow his movements forward, but his consciousness was still half awake.

Zheng Anqiu found Tong Juan's car keys, took Tong Jun into the car, and drove his trot along another fork of the road.

He didn't go through the toll booth, but took another winding mountain road, and drove to the mountain pass. Zheng Anqiu turned the car aside and stopped.

He reached into Tong Jun's pocket, looking for his communication equipment.

When he found that Tong Juan's cell phone could not be touched, Zheng Anqiu paused, then smiled and said, "You are quite smart, kid."

Tong Jun closed his eyes and meditated, ignoring him.

Several cars drove up from behind and stopped one after another. Someone came down from above and asked, "Brother Zheng, is this the person you want?"

Zheng Anqiu gave a "hmm" and said, "One of you will drive his car, go around outside, cover your face carefully, and the other person will drive our car, and meet up the mountain from four directions respectively. Wait until we get in touch. His dad, let's leave the country directly."

This decision was probably a bit sudden. Several people stood there without making a sound. Tong Jun closed his eyes, pretending to be indifferent, but secretly pricked up his ears.

Zheng Anqiu said: "If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

"Brother Zheng." A somewhat rough voice said, "We won't come back after we leave? I just dated a girl..."

Zheng Anqiu said patiently: "The police knew about this matter earlier than I expected, so we must avoid the limelight now. First, rely on Tong Haisheng's influence to transfer from Southeast Asia to Europe and the United States, as long as we spend a few years outside , but someone remembers you. If you want to come back when the time comes, it will not be difficult to change your identity."

Another person also said: "Huazi, brother Zheng is doing it for our own good, just be obedient. Don't worry, I know you are living comfortably these days, and the money will be indispensable to you."

Hua Zi was really moved by his last words, and said, "Cheng, Brother Zheng, I will follow you."

Tong Jun secretly remembered his name, and glanced out through the gap between his eyelashes. This man was less than thirty years old, tall and burly, with dark skin.

Immediately, Zheng Anqiu tightly covered his mouth and nose with a slightly damp handkerchief, an indescribable choking smell surged up, and he lost consciousness after ten seconds.

【Host?Host? 】

I don't know how long it took for Tong Jun to wake up in a daze.

When he remembered that he was kidnapped by Zheng Anqiu, his first reaction was to realize that he was no longer in his little sports car.

He was lying on the car seat with his legs curled up. The car body was constantly bumping while driving, and it seemed to be circling along the slope all the way up. During this period, there was a rattling noise, which made people feel sick.

Tong Jun couldn't tell where he was now. His head was covered with a piece of clothing, so he couldn't see the outside situation at all. His hands and feet were tied to death with ropes, and even his mouth was covered with tape. He had a standard kidnapped posture.

It was Zheng Anqiu who ganged up on him. Although the other party made some modifications to his appearance, there is no doubt about it.

What is his purpose?

From collecting money crazily, to fleeing to death, and now returning to kidnap him without incident, among these seemingly random actions, there must be some purpose as a guide.

They said just now that they wanted to use Tong Haisheng's power to leave the country. Tong Jun knew that his father had a lot of business dealings with Southeast Asia, but it seemed that Zheng Anqiu made such a decision hastily.

Just as Tong Jun was thinking, the car seemed to have run over a raised rock and bumped heavily, and the clothes covering his head slipped off.

The golden sun shone in from the car window, and Zheng Anqiu's driving in front came into view. At that moment, a scene that seemed familiar suddenly rushed into his mind.

That was the day!

The day Shao Yulin died in a car accident in the real world—he remembered it.

Shao Yulin took him to see Zheng Anqiu, but Tong Jun was unwilling and told her that he didn't like Uncle Zheng and wanted to play with his brother when he came home from school.

But Shao Yulin coaxed him, saying that Zheng Anqiu was going to take their mother and son out for a drive, and took Tong Jun along with him.

Zheng Anqiu's performance was nothing unusual compared to usual, gentle and elegant, humorous, and the atmosphere was good.

The two adults were talking softly in front, and Tong Jun sat in the back seat and played, but suddenly they didn't know what they said, the car started to speed up, and Shao Yulin screamed in horror.

Scared by his mother's cry, he raised his head, and all he could see was the back of Zheng Anqiu's car and a river in front of him.

Immediately after was the scene that Tong Jun remembered before, Shao Yulin begged incoherently, saying that she didn't mean to peek into Zheng Anqiu's secret.

Tong Jun suddenly felt terrified.

Zheng Anqiu has been covering up and evading a certain hidden secret.

He has successfully obtained a large amount of money, and then he was about to run away, but at this moment he turned back and kidnapped himself, what does it mean?

——It means that the secret can no longer be hidden!

Tong Jun immediately thought of Zheng Shuo's phone call the night before, and the murder case that Tong Lei had mentioned to him in the morning.

This case must have something to do with Zheng Anqiu. He didn't think in this direction before, because Tong Lei made it clear that the only murderer accomplice who was not caught should be in his 70s now, and he couldn't match Zheng Anqiu.

【Host?Host? 】

It wasn't until the mechanical sound sounded again that Tong Jun remembered that it was the system that woke him up, and he was still waiting.

He said, "Tongzi, I have been kidnapped."

The voice of the system was also a little annoyed: [I see, you have been kidnapped! 】

Tong Jun said: "... Is there any killing card, fat beating card, change some for me."

When it came to work, the system calmed down a bit, and said: [Host, now you have basically completed the transformation from a "lifeless salted fish", and won the ultimate prize, "Family Reunion", and the fate in the original plot has also completely changed . 】

[If you use power beyond the limits of this world now, there will be a risk of causing world turmoil. 】

Tong Jun said: "Forget it. But I haven't leaned on you a few times before, have I? At most, I can watch the meteor shower and create an atmosphere or something."

The system said: [Actually, what this system gives is mainly a great spiritual inspiration! 】

Tong Jun: "... Then what's the use of you asking me to earn points?"

[Actually, it’s useless, the carrots that fall in front of the donkey will never be eaten by the donkey...]

Tong Jun: "..."

The system's voice suddenly stopped, and then raised his voice: [Is this the time to talk about these insignificant things?You have been kidnapped! 】

The system was right in saying that what it gave was really spiritual power. Tong Jun talked nonsense with the system for a long time, but nothing came out. The previous trance and headache were much better.

He said: "Yes, I was kidnapped, but you are useless. Go, go, go if it is useless."

The system was silent for a while, and then said: [Although props cannot be used, the system can try to find a way to send messages to the outside world for you. The host tries to delay the time as much as possible. 】

The system's words reminded Tong Jun of Yuan Tuo and his family, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Looking at the sunshine outside, he should have been taken away by Zheng Anqiu for two or three hours. Tong Haisheng and Tong Lei might not be aware of it, but Yuan Tuo should have almost finished work. He must be very anxious when he finds out that he can't find him.

I don't know if Yuan Tuo saw the clues he left behind. If the system can really tell, it's enough to make them feel at ease.

"Okay, thank you for your precious friendship."

Tong Jun's guess was right, Yuan Tuo had finished his affairs at this time, declined the dinner invitations of others, and walked out quickly.

It was strange that he couldn't find Tong Jun's car after looking around, but he couldn't get through on the phone, so he was a little anxious.

In fact, the chance of accidents in this world is very small. If you can’t find someone and can’t get through the phone, it may be because of other things. The phone is out of battery, stolen, or because of a temporary situation, you don’t hear the ringtone.

But Yuan Tuo felt flustered in his heart, and while repeatedly dialing the number again, he strode towards his car.

Just as he opened the car door, the phone was suddenly connected.

Seeing the icon showing "on call" popping up, Yuan Tuo felt relieved suddenly, feeling as if he was saved from a desperate situation.

He quickly picked up the phone: "Why didn't you answer the phone just now? You scared me to death!"

It wasn't Tong Jun's ridicule that came from there, but a strange voice tentatively said, "Sir, is this your friend's phone? We just picked it up in the trash can..."

At that moment, Yuan Tuo's mind went blank, he felt a distinct sense of suffocation, and he could hardly hold the phone.

"You..." Yuan Tuo's voice was dry, "What's your address?"

On the way to the Banmian shop, Yuan Tuo took a little chance and took a look at his mobile phone there, and found that Tong Jun's last call record was to Zheng Anqiu.

He knew right away that it wasn't good.

Since Zheng Anqiu's accident, many people have tried to call him. His mobile phone has been offline for a while, Tong Jun knows.

The owner of the store was still talking about the process of discovering the mobile phone: "... I remember that young man, when my wife gave him the beer, she said that the child was really good-looking. He was sitting in this seat, and there was someone opposite... Later they gone."

"I've been working for a while, and I feel strange. Where is that cell phone ringing all the time? Well, I'm looking for it in the wastebasket..."

Yuan Tuo said, "What does that person opposite him look like?"

The shopkeeper said: "He's just an ordinary guy, wearing glasses, tall and thin, wearing a long padded jacket, he's..."

He raised his voice and asked his wife, "Is that man wearing black clothes?"

"Yes, all in black!"

Yuan Tuo confirmed again: "Did they go together?"

The shopkeeper said, "Yes, that person paid for the beer."

I can't tell who it is from this description, but Tong Jun will not call Zheng Anqiu's number for no reason, not to mention, even if he forgot his mobile phone in the store, it shouldn't be where it fell into the wastebasket, let alone Maybe I didn't tell Yuan Tuo a word.

There is no surveillance in this small shop at all. If it weren't for this mobile phone, Yuan Tuo would not even be able to determine where Tong Jun disappeared, and would have to spend more time looking for it.

He took a deep breath, turned around and quickly dialed Gunzi's phone, then returned to his car.

There is a [-]% possibility that Tong Jun was taken away by Zheng Anqiu. Yuan Tuo didn't know what the elusive man was trying to do, so he didn't dare to call the police for a moment.

He first asked the gun to contact a large number of people to come to this area to inquire and search, and then contacted his assistant, asking him to find a police captain of the branch he knew, explain the situation face to face, and discuss solutions.

After a phone call, Yuan Tuo's hands stopped on Tong Haisheng's phone number, hesitant to tell him or not.

Suddenly, his thigh was pulled by someone. Yuan Tuo lowered his head and found that the little hedgehog appeared out of nowhere, with two front paws on his thigh, looked up at him, and stomped anxiously.

[Protagonist, protagonist?Can you hear the system talking? 】

At the same time, a familiar mechanical sound came, reminding him of the days when he was often forced to watch educational films.

Yuan Tuo said, "Is that you?"

[It’s good if you can hear it. ] The system said, 【Tong Jun has been kidnapped! 】

A glimmer of hope ignited in Yuan Tuo's heart: "Do you know where he is?"

The system said: [You can ask the hedgehog to guide you, but he is still in the car, and the system cannot predict the end point.You don't have helpers around you, you can choose to wait for the target to reach a fixed location before rushing to it. 】

Now Yuan Tuo is the closest to the place where Tong Jun was kidnapped, and if he waits for others to rush over to join him, it will take a lot of time, and Zheng Anqiu's crazy people don't know what they will do.

What if he wanted to kill someone and throw his body away?What if Tong Jun was injured and beaten?

After thinking about it for a while, Yuan Tuo felt anxious, and said without hesitation, "I'll go first."

【respect your choice. 】

The little hedgehog got off Yuan Tuo's lap, ran to the co-pilot, buckled up the seat belt, got in and sat down.

A red arrow-shaped road sign appeared in the midair ahead, and Yuan Tuo looked sideways at the little hedgehog: "Let's go."

"Mr. Tong? Mr. Tong?" The secretary carefully pushed Tong Lei and said in a low voice, "Officer Zhang is talking to you."

Tong Lei woke up suddenly, and found that he had fallen asleep sitting in the conference room as if possessed by an evil spirit.

His emotions still had the fear of being burned to death in the dream. He rubbed the center of his brows and said to the police from the city bureau apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I didn't have a good rest last night. What did you just say?"

"It's okay, I should thank you for sacrificing your personal time to cooperate with us in solving the case." Officer Zhang shook hands with Tong Lei and said, "This investigation can basically be over. Thank you Shenhai Group for your active cooperation."
