No such person [criminal investigation]

In the office of the Scenic Area Management Office.

The staff went looking for files and checking information.

Qi Zang sat on the office chair, searched through his mobile phone, and watched the scene of the magician Meng Yiran performing in front of Zishui Waterfall.

He could already confirm that the place where Meng Yiran disappeared on the stone bridge was indeed the hole where Xu Ci found the mechanism and pressed it.

It's just that when Meng Yiran appeared in front of the waterfall, it was only five seconds before she disappeared.Judging from the length of the secret passage, no matter how fast she ran, she couldn't do it.

Qi Zang immediately frowned.

After watching the video in slow speed, he understood the mystery - the "fairy" who appeared five seconds after Meng Yiran disappeared was a substitute.A large amount of dry ice covered her face, and the exact same dress would mislead the public into thinking that she was Meng Yiran.

Three minutes later, the fairy finally showed her face, and it was Meng Yiran herself.

If it was 3 minutes, of course it would be enough for Meng Yiran to pass through the secret passage and hang himself on the wire.

Light and shadow, dry ice, substitute, secret way, and wire form the mystery of this magic.It is popular not because of how mysterious it is, but because of the plot and wonderful dance——

A man who could not walk climbed a stone bridge, made a wish to a fairy, and then could run, dance, and dance with the fairy.

The waterfall and the dry ice smoke are combined with the lighting, so that the dance in the natural landscape has a sense of magnificence.

It can be said that the reason why the fairies of Zishui Waterfall can realize people's wishes has a lot to do with this performance.

The show lasted for a year.Later, it was probably banned because everyone felt that there was no novelty, and they were unwilling to spend money to buy and watch it.

The performance was banned, but the secret passage and mechanism remained. Only those who participated in the transformation and the magician team knew its existence.

Suppose Joo Soo's boyfriend is one of those people.

If this is the case, Zhu Xiu, who knew in advance that Baiyun Mountain would rain on Saturday, tried every means to lure the deceased Liu Na to Baiyun Mountain. The ultimate goal is probably to lure her to Zishui Waterfall to kidnap and blackmail her——

When I woke up in the morning and found that it was raining, the travel plan had to be cancelled, and the employees who came to rest probably felt lucky instead.In this way, they don't have to participate in the physically demanding team building projects such as mountain climbing or even outdoor sports competitions. They can continue to stay in the villa, sing, drink and eat barbecue.

Of course the underage Liu Na can't play with them.

Zhu Xiu proposed to go to Zishui Waterfall on a rainy day and try his luck to see if he could see the "fairy", which became a logical thing.

Of course, she had to call a few more people, such as Jiang Xue and Wang Yueran.Because she needs witnesses to prove that she did nothing.

After arriving at Zishui Waterfall, Zhu Xiu can lead Liu Na to take pictures on the stone bridge.

"Back up a little bit, back up a little bit. Yes, it's very beautiful. Standing there, it's like the fairy from the waterfall really came out."

Hearing Zhu Xiu's words, Liu Na stepped into the cave step by step.Zhu Xiu pretended to trigger the mechanism inadvertently, and Liu Na would fall into the cave.Zhu Xiu's boyfriend, who had been hiding in the cave for a long time, could take Liu Na to leave behind the waterfall through the secret passage.

By the time Zhu Xiu and the rest of the staff discovered the cave, ran forward to check it out, and then jumped down to find someone, Liu Na had long since disappeared.

Liu Na's disappearance would be an accident.

No one would suspect Zhu Xiu.

This is a kidnapping case that can only be achieved through cooperation.

Presumably, if the beautiful itinerary fails to attract Liu Na, Zhu Xiu will take the risk of using verbal persuasion.

It's just... why is Zhu Xiu so sure that she can really lure Liu Na to Zishui Waterfall?

Could it be that Zhu Xiu had heard her talk about wanting to come to Zishui Waterfall to make a wish?

A person who really wanted to die would probably not have the idea of ​​making a wish.

Liu Na, a 17-year-old girl whose parents don't care enough, is prone to depression, and is arrogant and domineering in the eyes of her classmates... What kind of wish would she have?

What happened on Friday night to cause her to collapse in the bathtub and stop this carefully planned kidnapping plan?

·

When Qi Zang left the office with all the materials, he could see mountains and rivers as far as he could see, but Xu Ci had long since disappeared.

Obviously he didn't remember it deliberately, but a series of numbers suddenly appeared in Qi Zang's mind.

That was the so-called private number that Xu Ci left for him last night.

At that time, he didn't deliberately memorize it, but the string of numbers had already taken root in the depths of his consciousness.

Shaking his head and smiling self-deprecatingly, Qi Zang walked to the parking lot and returned to the city.

Zhu Xiu and her boyfriend wanted to kidnap Liu Na. From Qi Zang's point of view, it was indeed Xu Ci's speculation at first without any real evidence.But now this speculation is slowly being confirmed.At this point, it is extremely important to obtain the confession of the parties.

On the way, Qi Zang called Shan Kang who was looking at Zhu Xiu. "Let Zhu Xiu explain clearly about the kidnapping and her boyfriend. If she doesn't speak up, confirm the situation with the doctor. If her condition is fine, copy it back to the city bureau!"

When Qi Zang drove back to the City Bureau, Shankang called and said that Zhu Xiu refused to speak, did not talk about her boyfriend, and did not mention kidnapping.

As for her parents, she didn't know anything about her boyfriend——

"What? Xiuxiu has a boyfriend? Why don't we know! Well, comrade policeman, do you know his contact information? This is our girl, the bride price is for her!"

"That's right. Xiuxiu works in a big company in Jinning City, so the man's conditions can't be bad! Please help us tell Xiuxiu that she must ask the man to give the bride price. Her brother is waiting to buy a house and get married."

……

"Bring Zhu Xiu back directly. I'll go to the technology and data service team. I'm not afraid that she won't speak."

At this time, it was one o'clock in the afternoon, and the communication with Shankang was over. Qi Zang didn't have time to eat and went directly to the technical team.

On the one hand, Qi Zang wants to check Zhu Xiu's mobile phone communication records; on the other hand, he wants to use the Skynet system to check Zhu Xiu's whereabouts so as to lock her boyfriend's identity.

Zhu Xiu's boyfriend is constantly asking her to borrow money and pay back the money, and the two of them should have been in frequent mobile phone contact during this period.

Furthermore, the kidnapping matter is of great importance, and mobile phone communication may not be enough, and there is a high probability that they will meet.

The time of the incident was last Friday, and Wang Yueran printed the itinerary, which was last Thursday; moreover, the store manager Jiang Xue saw the reward notice for the sales performance of the summer promotion, and decided to arrange team building as employee benefits, so that Wang Yueran Arranging the itinerary is a Monday evening event.

Qi Zang decisively said to the criminal police of the technical team: "From [-] o'clock on Monday to Wednesday, check all the intersections near Zhu Xiu's house and all the entrances and exits of Beishui store. Check the surveillance on Wednesday first. If there is no result, we will push forward."

Sitting in the corner of the office, the light from the large electronic screen shines on Qi Zang's chiseled face, changing colors constantly, and finally freezes.

A voice said: "Qi team, there is. Look at this man."

Qi Zang immediately looked at the two fixed-frame surveillance images, which were located at the west gate of Beishui store.Zhu Xiu stood opposite a man, one monitor was facing Zhu Xiu's face, and the other showed the man's face very clearly.

In the picture, Zhu Xiu just walked out of the mall clutching her mobile phone, her face was tense and dignified.

The man standing in front of her had a bowed back, a fair face, double eyes, and a straight nose, but he was quite handsome.

It's just that his bowed posture and squinted eyes are all vicious and obscene, which really makes people feel unfavorable.

He raised his right hand towards Zhu Xiu, as if he wanted to hold her hand and lead her to find a quiet place to discuss things.

Quite noticeable is that he wears a ring on his right hand.The ring was very inconsistent with his own temperament, and there was a metal carving on it.

The sculpture is a flower composed of four petals of different shapes. This kind of flower is too strange, and it looks like a mysterious and ancient flavor, like some kind of totem, not like a real one in nature.

"Save this photo, and then continue to look at some more to make sure."

The criminal police colleague from the technical team was about to take action. Qi Zang frowned as if he saw something, and immediately raised his hand: "Wait, let's zoom in on this photo first. The position in the upper left corner, zoom in!"

As the upper left corner of the monitoring screen was zoomed in, the suspicion he had just glimpsed inadvertently just now was confirmed, and Qi Zang immediately stood up.

Half of Qi Zang's face was hidden in the shadow of the corner of the room, his expression almost stunned——

The person in the picture was actually Xu Ci.

The enlarged high-definition monitor clearly reflected Xu Ci's expression.

Probably because no one was paying attention, his expression showed a moment of truth, and then through the monitoring at this moment, he could clearly see some surprise and a trace of unconcealable hatred.

Xu Ci knows Zhu Xiu's boyfriend?

At present, it is only reasonable to suspect that Zhu Xiu and her boyfriend are suspected of kidnapping and extortion, which is still not directly related to the murder case.

Xu Ci was targeting these two people from the beginning to the end.

...What is his purpose?

"Qi team?"

"Qi team, do you have any questions?"

A few calls brought Qi Zang back to his senses.

He waved his hand. "It's okay, send me the photo of that man. I'll do a comparison."

Leaving the technical team without stopping, Qi Zang returned to the office and compared the relevant information with the investigators of the three teams.

According to the information obtained from the management of the scenic spot, three years ago, there were seven men in the team of magician Meng Yiran, staff of the scenic spot, and men of the right age who participated in the project renovation of the Zishui Waterfall scenic spot.

The profile picture of Zhu Xiu's boyfriend is already clear.After comparison, it can be confirmed that he is a staff member of the scenic spot, named Yuan Xiaobing.

According to the files of the management office of the scenic spot, Yuan Xiaobing went to the scenic spot four years ago to work as a security guard. If there are tourists who do not follow the rules to take the green road or open a trail without permission and get lost, Yuan Xiaobing will also be responsible for the rescue.

There is also an internal circular from the management office of the scenic spot to praise this. Three years ago, two members of the magic team climbed Baiyun Mountain at night and wanted to see the sunrise. found them.It was a matter of course for him to get acquainted with the members of the magic troupe and get to know the secret agency.

Finally, the review of Zhu Xiu's call list was completed, and the number with which she called the most was confirmed to be Yuan Xiaobing through checking the identity information, but it was currently in a state of being unable to get through.

·

9pm that night.

Jinning City, Yishui Development Zone, Qingfeng Group Headquarters, inside the executive apartment.

Building 07 of the townhouse is Xu Ci's residence.

This was one of the year-end awards he got last year.But he only has the right of residence.The property rights of the house still belong to the company.

Indoor air conditioning as low as 20 degrees.Xu Ci was wearing home clothes, sitting on the carpet casually, with his long legs propped up casually.

He didn't wear the flat glasses for camouflage, but put them on the glass coffee table. He was tapping into his notebook, revising the audit report related to the Beishui store.

After checking a few numbers and finally reading the audit summary again, Xu Ci placed the specially purchased left-handed mouse on his left hand, and sent the email to a person signed by "Lin Jingtong".

After sending the email, Xu Ci picked out a few key points and sent him another WeChat message. "Boss Lin, if you don't have time to read the detailed report, you can read this WeChat first. After you confirm, I will send it to the chairman and key executives, and copy it to the shareholders simultaneously."

The phone rang quickly.

Picking it up and looking at it, it was not Lin Jingtong's reply, but an unfamiliar number.

But Xu Ci seemed to know who that person was.The end of his eyes slightly bent, he stood up and walked to the window, opened the window a little, and then answered the phone.

The person at the other end of the arc was indeed Qi Zang.

"Mr. Xie, did you disturb your sleep?"

"No." Xu Ci put one hand on the window frame, "I'm still working overtime."

"Thank you for your hard work, sir."

"It can't compare to your people's police."

Qi Zang's voice paused for a moment, and then he said, "I have a question for you."

"I know everything."

"Mr. Xie thinks, under what circumstances would one person leave another without saying goodbye?"

The night wind was blowing, and Xu Ci raised his head. In the night sky, a crescent moon hung high, the stars were sparse, and the night looked deserted.

Holding the phone tighter, Xu Ci asked, "What kind of relationship do these two people have?"

After a while, Qi Zang replied: "Friends, brothers, lovers, romantic partners...

"Of course, maybe it's just a one-night stand. It depends on what the person thinks."
