[Rat and Cat] Serious Crime Team

Chapter 152 The Road to Rebirth (4)

After Bai Yutang stayed awake for two days without eating or drinking, everyone could no longer tolerate his self-harming behavior.Under Bao Zheng's strong request, Bai Jintang drove directly to the branch office and escorted Bai Yutang, who was on the verge of collapse, back home.Bai Yutang was ordered to sleep, and even if he couldn't sleep, he had to lie in bed for at least five hours.

Bai Yutang's heart was like frying oil, he didn't feel any sleepiness at all, but he couldn't resist Bai Jintang, so he could only lie on the bed enduring the pain and suffering.After extreme insomnia and physical weakness, the human body will enter a state of self-protection.When Bai Yutang's body was relaxed by lying flat, his consciousness quickly became blurred.Although it is impossible for him to fall asleep, after closing his eyes, his thinking can no longer maintain a clear operation.He began to think wildly, and his mind was filled with all kinds of horrible daydreams.For a while, I dreamed that Zhan Zhao was blown beyond recognition by a bomb, and for a while, I dreamed that Zhan Zhao was lying on the cold ground covered in blood.The messy dream made Bai Yutang wake up every few minutes in fright, and then he closed his eyes and fell into the nightmare again.

It went on like this for several hours, finally, his body could barely rest, and after recovering some strength, Bai Yutang got up from the bed.He left his room, went to the kitchen as fast as he could, opened the refrigerator door, took out a can of beer, and drank it down.The cold beer temporarily calmed his chaotic heart. When he threw away the beer can, he suddenly remembered the first time he drank beer with Zhan Zhao in his dormitory, and his heart ached again.

At this time, a doorbell suddenly rang outside the door.Bai Yutang frowned slightly, and hurried to the door.Observing through the monitor, I found that there were several children dressed as primary school students standing at the door. They were chatting with each other while ringing the doorbell.Bai Yutang frowned and opened the door. The children suddenly saw a tall man with a stinky face and dark circles coming out of the door, and they were all startled at the same time.

"Why are you ringing the doorbell? Is there something wrong?" Bai Yutang was thinking about Zhan Zhao, and he was in no mood to put on any good looks with a group of brats.

The leading child was a chubby boy, and it seemed that he was the most courageous among several people.He looked at Bai Yutang's displeased face, hesitated at the corner of his mouth, and asked timidly, "Uncle, is your name Bai Yutang?"

Bai Yutang was slightly taken aback, looked at the boy thoughtfully, then nodded coldly.

"That would be great." The boy breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately took out a brown paper envelope from the backpack behind him, "Uncle, someone asked me to give this to you."

"Is there someone?" Bai Yutang took the envelope and looked at the boy suspiciously, "Who is the person who asked you to deliver the letter? Do you know him?"

The boy shook his head, and a little girl standing behind him interjected, "A tall, dark-skinned uncle asked us to deliver it. He said that as long as we deliver the letter to you, you will give us 200 yuan." Money. Uncle, your house is far away, and we had to walk very hard to deliver it, you won’t give us money, right?”

Bai Yutang frowned, glanced at the shrewd little girl, and then looked at the envelope in his hand.He weighed it casually, the envelope was very light.On closer inspection, it was not sealed.

Who would send him a letter in such a way, and at such a time?Bai Yutang's heart moved slightly, and a thought made his heart tighten instantly!Yun Qiuze, is that you? !

He hurriedly asked the children, "The person who asked you to deliver the letter, where did you see him?!"

The little fat man was slightly taken aback, frowned and thought for a while, then said a few words out of order.The other children chirped a few words, and it took Bai Yutang a long time to understand.It turned out that these children were students in an elementary school three blocks away. Today, when they were leaving school, they were suddenly stopped by a tall uncle who gave them 50 yuan to help deliver the letter, and then told them that as long as the letter was delivered, Bai Yutang will definitely give them more money.It took at least an hour for the elementary school students to walk here from three blocks away, which meant that they had met Yun Qiuze at least an hour and a half ago.

Not to mention an hour and a half, even if it was only 10 minutes, it was enough for Yun Qiuze to escape thousands of miles away.Bai Yutang frowned fiercely, and tightly grasped the kraft paper bag in his hand.

"If you want money, come with me!" As he said, he turned around and ran into the villa, tearing open the brown paper bag and looking inside.

There was a small USB flash drive inside the kraft paper bag, and Bai Yutang's heart tightened again. He had already guessed that there must be a file in the USB flash drive, and that file should record Yun Qiuze's request.He was about to show his cards, that is to say, Bai Yutang could finally know Zhan Zhao's whereabouts.Nervous, painful, and apprehensive, Bai Yutang could only run into the house at the fastest speed.

After entering the room, he immediately ran upstairs at the fastest speed, because he was too fast, he almost collided with Bai Jintang who was going downstairs head-on.

"Hey! Xiaobai, are you burning your ass?" Bai Jintang hurriedly helped his younger brother and asked helplessly.

Bai Yutang didn't have time to explain to his elder brother, so he just agreed vaguely, and ordered Bai Jintang to go downstairs to take care of those little ghosts, and specifically told them not to let those children go and don't give them money first.

The USB flash drive was inserted into the computer, and Bai Yutang clicked on it nervously, only to find that there was only one video file inside.With a light click of the mouse, the video opens instantly, and Zhan Zhao's face suddenly appears on the screen without warning.

"Isn't this Zhan Zhao?!" After a while, Bai Jintang, who was moving swiftly, had turned back from the living room, "Xiaobai, where did you get the USB flash drive, and what's going on with these brats?"

Bai Yutang waved his hand irritably, and shut up with a low drink.His eyes were firmly fixed on the computer screen, as if in a state of concentration, he stared at Zhan Zhao on the screen intently.

He was half lying on a bed, his legs were tied with ropes, and his upper body was leaning on the pillow. This position looked very uncomfortable.His face was a little haggard, thin, and he looked a little depressed.Apparently, the shots in this video were shot in one shot. At the beginning, Zhan Zhao didn't seem to notice that the camera was shooting, and even checked with the person opposite to see if it was turned on.

Afterwards, Zhan Zhao adjusted his expression and emotions, and showed a very shallow smile to the camera.

"Yutang, it's me, Zhan Zhao, I'm still alive, and I'm doing well."

Bai Yutang stared fixedly at the screen, and when he heard Zhan Zhao's voice, he clenched his fists tightly.His whole body trembled slightly, and tears had already flowed down his eyes unconsciously, but he himself didn't know anything about it.All his thoughts are fixed on Zhan Zhao's face in the picture, and his ears can only hear Zhan Zhao's voice.

"You guessed it right? Yutang, you guessed it right. The person who kidnapped me was Yun Qiuze. Now he asked to record this video for you. He wants you to know that he kidnapped me. But He didn't tell me what his request was. I asked him, and he said it was not the time. I don't understand why he didn't ask. If you know him so well, maybe you will understand.

Yutang, forgive me for not being able to tell you too much useful information, but I want you to know that I am doing well, and I will—”

The video stopped abruptly here, Bai Yutang stared blankly at the pitch-black display screen, and minimized the video with trembling fingers.He rummaged through the entire USB flash drive back and forth, but never found the existence of the second file.He opened the video again and watched it again, but in the end he had no choice but to accept that Yun Qiuze didn't show up in the video, and didn't even say a word!

"What's going on here? What is that bastard sending this USB flash drive for?" Bai Jintang stood behind Bai Yutang, his brows furrowed.

Bai Yutang remained silent and did not answer.There were still tears on his face, but for the first time in three days, his heart calmed down.He finally confirmed Zhan Zhao's whereabouts, and also confirmed that Zhan Zhao was still alive.Although Zhan Zhao seemed to be in a bad state, he definitely didn't suffer too much.This disc further proves Bai Yutang's long-standing thinking that Yun Qiuze is here for him, and he will not hurt Zhan Zhao until he achieves his goal.

This is enough!Zhan Zhao, don't be afraid, as long as you are still alive, I will always find you and rescue you!

Bai Yutang stood up abruptly, unplugged the USB drive from the computer, and put it back into the kraft paper bag.He turned to face his elder brother, and said calmly, "I'm going back to the Serious Crime Squad to give this to the section chief for analysis, and take these brats to record statements by the way. Brother Zhan is still resting, it's best not to let him know about this. You stay at home to take care of him, and I will stay in the serious crime team to work overtime these days, and I won't come back."

As he said that, Bai Yutang quickly went downstairs, took out three hundred-yuan bills from his wallet, waved them in front of the smart and beautiful girl, then turned around and walked out the door.Seeing that the person who gave the money was about to leave, the children hurried to follow.Bai Jintang watched Bai Yutang's back, with a look of worry on his face.

With the temptation of money, Bai Yutang successfully brought the group of little ghosts back to the serious crime team.After Bao Zheng learned everything, he immediately invited Zhou Bin, the young artist who helped paint the arsonist's portrait last time, over.A group of children have all seen Yun Qiuze, although their memories are not as reliable as adults, and their expressions lack logic.However, Zhou Bin's ingenious brushstrokes were really extraordinary. Within an hour, a clear portrait was presented in front of the children.Almost all the children agreed that this person was the tall uncle they had seen.

Bai Yutang's gaze was fixed on the eyes of the portrait, as if he was looking at Yun Qiuze.He squinted his eyes, looking through the white sketching paper, as if traveling through space, he was directly face to face with Yun Qiuze.They were in an empty house, the whole room was illuminated by blinding lights, as bright as a huge square in the midday sun.They stood facing each other, their eyes facing each other.

Yun Qiuze was wearing a police uniform, and the special police captain's logo on the neckline shone against the lights.Bai Yutang lowered his head and glanced at his neckline, it was empty, which meant that he was just an ordinary SWAT team member, while Yun Qiuze was still his boss and the person he admired the most.Bai Yutang raised his head again, staring closely at Yun Qiuze's half-smiling face.

They just stood there without speaking, and a tense atmosphere was brewing between them.There was a chair inlaid on the ground between them, and there was a man sitting upright on the chair. He was thin and pale, but his eyes were piercing, revealing the light of determination.That was Zhan Zhao.

This is a battle, but also a game, the one who strikes first already has the upper hand.Yun Qiuze stared at Bai Yutang, and the corner of his mouth suddenly twitched.As if by magic, a pistol suddenly appeared in his hand.

"No!" Before Bai Yutang could stop him, Yun Qiuze's gun was already aimed at the head of the man in the middle.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai!" Bao Zheng had noticed Bai Yutang's abnormal state a long time ago, and pushed him a few times when he made a tragic cry, awakening him from the heavy illusion.

Bai Yutang was covered in cold sweat and his face was pale.He looked at Bao Zheng blankly, and it took him a long time to slowly recover.

"I—I saw Yun Qiuze and Zhan Zhao just now."

Bao Zheng nodded, gently rubbed Bai Yutang's sweaty hair, and sighed, "You're too nervous. Go over there and rest for a while, just leave that USB flash drive to me and Ah Ce."

Bai Yutang wiped off his cold sweat and nodded. After turning around, he stopped suddenly and said to Bao Zheng, "Boss, can you copy the video for me after the section chief finishes his analysis?"

After a little thought, Bao Zheng figured out why Bai Yutang did this, perhaps he wanted to see more about Zhan Zhao's current appearance.But wouldn't doing so make him more painful?Bao Zheng sighed and nodded his head in agreement.

The Technical Inspection Division and the Forensic Forensics Division conducted data analysis and fingerprint collection on the U disk and the kraft paper bag respectively, but the final results were disappointing.Yun Qiuze did not leave any clues or loopholes, and it is completely delusional to find clues from this evidence.Gongsun Ce copied the video to a brand new USB flash drive and handed it to Bai Yutang. Ever since he got the backup video, Bai Yutang stayed in the conference room and watched that video repeatedly on the TV in the conference room.Over and over again, watching like crazy, and doing nothing else, like an old monk in meditation.At first, his colleagues felt a little sympathetic to him, but after a few hours, they all felt that Bai Yutang had gone crazy.

That night, all the serious crime team worked overtime, and Bai Jintang brought Zhan Hui to the team to listen to the latest news.When all of them came to the conference room for a meeting, they found that Bai Yutang was still watching the video.Bai Jintang didn't expect to see this scene as soon as he entered the conference room, because everything was too unexpected, and he didn't have time to stop Zhan Hui from entering the door.

This is how Zhan Hui directly learned of Zhan Zhao's whereabouts, and saw Zhan Zhao's pale face and bound body on the huge screen.He took a few steps forward in bewilderment, and then began to tremble all over.

"Xiaohui, Xiaohui, don't be nervous. Zhan Zhao is fine now. He is fine. This video was sent by the kidnappers. In the video, Zhan Zhao is always fine, neither injured nor tortured!" Bai Jintang couldn't help it in desperation Hugging Zhan Hui's trembling body, while comforting him softly, he gave Bai Yutang a hard look and motioned him to turn off the TV immediately.

Bai Yutang didn't see the elder brother's wink at all, he stared closely at Zhan Zhao's eyes in the picture, frowning.In fact, no one knew why he watched this video over and over again. The reason he did so was only to find clues from Zhan Zhao's words or performance.He believes that Zhan Zhao is not someone who just sits and waits to die, he will definitely try his best to save himself.Even if he cannot save himself, he will use some clever means to convey information to the outside world.But he watched this video over and over a hundred times, but he still didn't find any information.

Why didn't Zhan Zhao tell him any useful news?Was it because the situation at that time was too dangerous to pass on the news, or was it because Zhan Zhao couldn't find any useful clues?He is with Yun Qiuze now, where are they, what Yun Qiuze wants, these important situations are also a mystery to Zhan Zhao, is that so?

Zhan Zhao, why can't you tell me, even if it's just a small reminder!

"Zhao Hu, go and turn off the TV. Xiaobai, stop first, we're in a meeting!" Bao Zheng couldn't bear to watch Bai Yutang continue to torture himself like this, so he ordered Zhao Hu to step forward and interrupt him.

The crowd that suddenly poured into the meeting room made Bai Yutang irritable again, and the delay in finding any clues made him almost emotionally broken.He stood up abruptly, staring at all the people who tried to get close to the TV with cold eyes, and Zhao Hu was so scared that he took a few steps back in a hurry.

"Bai Yutang, you—" Zhao Hu glanced at Bai Yutang anxiously, then turned his head to look at Bao Zheng bitterly, "Yes, the boss told me to turn off the phone. Bai Yutang, you—"

Bai Yutang looked at Zhao Hu coldly, "Stand back!"

Bai Yutang's words made everyone look at each other, and they all looked at Bai Jintang in unison.

At this time, Zhan Hui seemed to have calmed down, and he also looked at Bai Jintang worriedly, and said in a low voice, "Captain, Zhan Zhao is still alive, right?"

Bai Jintang felt pain in his heart, and immediately nodded, "Yes, he's still alive. Just like the hostages we rescued back then, we will rescue him too!"

Zhanhui is a patient whose thinking is different from that of ordinary people.In his single-line thinking, if Zhan Zhao died, then his next step would be to find a murderer to avenge Zhan Zhao.But if Zhan Zhao is not dead, then go and save him.Although Zhan Hui is no longer a special soldier, he still hasn't forgotten the feeling of saving people.He believed that with him and the captain around, it was only a matter of time before Zhan Zhao was rescued.He is a soldier, and all a soldier has to do is obey orders.Thinking of this, his heart settled down instead.

Zhan Hui looked at Bai Jintang calmly, just like the others.Bai Jintang felt the tremendous pressure. He stared speechlessly at Bai Yutang who was still mad, and shouted in a low voice, "Bai Yutang! Why are you crazy! Didn't you see that everyone is going to have a meeting? Your behavior will affect our rescue of Zhan Zhao." progress, do you understand?"

Bai Yutang immediately turned his attention to Bai Jintang, his face was still dark and there was no improvement.

"I told you to back off! We have no clues now, no matter how many meetings we have! I want to continue watching the video, Zhan Zhao must have something to tell me, he will definitely not let this opportunity pass! I understand him , only I understand him!"

"Xiaobai! You've been watching that video for a long time, can you stop for a while? Your current mood is no longer suitable for work, and you need to rest!" Gongsun Ce really couldn't bear to look at Bai Yutang like this , he couldn't help but stepped forward, raised his hand and patted Bai Yutang's shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yutang, who usually has a very good relationship with Gongsun Ce, suddenly flashed away. Gongsun Ce didn't pay attention, and was almost swayed.

"Bai Yutang! Are you crazy, kid?!"

Pang Tong, who had always seldom talked on such occasions, couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward to help Gongsun Ce, and then stepped behind Bai Yutang, raising his hand to turn off the TV.Bai Yutang was not willing to let him do anything, Pang Tong's hands had not even touched the TV before he pounced on it.Seeing that if no one stopped, the two would fight in the conference room.But at this moment, a figure ran between Pang Tong and Bai Yutang like a ghost, and after that, there was only a muffled sound, and Bai Yutang fell to the ground with a thud, and immediately fell into a coma.

Everyone, including Pang Tong, looked at the man who had knocked Bai Yutang unconscious with a palm, but that man rubbed his arms smartly under everyone's gaze, turned around and turned off the TV.Afterwards, he said to Bai Jintang, "Captain, your younger brother will only get in the way if he stays here. My palm can make him rest for at least two hours. Aren't you going to have a meeting? Get started!"

When Zhan Hui said these words, it was as calm as if he was talking about today's weather, which formed a sharp contrast with Bai Yutang who was lying on the ground.Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all thought this scene was very funny.But Zhan Zhao is in a dangerous situation, how can everyone laugh at this moment?Zhang Long and Zhao Hu lifted Bai Yutang up with a suppressed smile, and carefully placed him on the sofa behind the meeting room.When they carried Bai Yutang past everyone, suddenly, everyone heard a sudden laughter.

"Ha ha."

Everyone looked at it in unison, but at the same time they saw Qin Jian's dead face.Well, this guy with a negative EQ, he is not within the range of normal human beings, he just laughs when he laughs, no one will care about him.

Qin Jian's laughter broke the awkward atmosphere, but at this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps at the door.I saw a handsome young man accompanied by an elegant middle-aged man into the meeting room.As soon as the two entered the door, they went straight to Bao Zheng.

"Zhao Zhen, Professor Zhao, why are you here?" Bao Zheng looked at Zhao Zhen and the middle-aged man behind him in surprise.

The middle-aged man's elegant and handsome face was covered with displeasure frost, he stared at Bao Zheng coldly, and said nonchalantly, "My student was lost by you, I shouldn't come to you to ask for someone ?"
