Chi Zhongwu was kidnapped yesterday morning. The kidnappers seemed to know his living habits very well. However, the young master of the Chi family was not consciously vigilant as an important person. He went out to have morning tea in the morning without a bodyguard and drove alone.
When I got out of a tea restaurant in the parking lot, someone suddenly put a gun to my waist and asked me to get into another car.
Judging from the surveillance video in the parking lot, the kidnapper behaved politely, like an old friend came up to say hello. The gun was in his windbreaker. There was nothing unusual from the angle of the camera. Ikezhong Satoru seemed to have met him in the parking lot.
The friend was invited into the car, but the kidnapper's face was never facing the camera. He seemed to be familiar with the environment, and the license plate number was probably not real.
If we look at Hong Kong more than ten years ago, public security was good on the surface, but gangs were rampant and kidnappings occurred from time to time. Most of them were resolved privately and not many were reported. But after 1997, especially now, after
After several overt or covert crackdowns, the number of vicious kidnapping cases by gangs has been much less. Unexpectedly, they appeared again today.
No one knew where Chi Zhongwu went. They all thought he had something to do in the morning and went out by himself. He did not go to the auction house until noon. In the afternoon, Chi Jiasheng received a call from his grandson. Chi Zhongwu told his grandfather on the phone,
I have been invited by a friend to be a guest. A friend will come to discuss business in a while.
Chi Jiasheng, who has worked hard in Hong Kong for decades, immediately understood what his grandson meant. He knew that he had been kidnapped, and that the kidnappers actually wanted to come to negotiate terms! He immediately told his men that there would be strange visitors in the afternoon, and he would directly
Bring him to see him.
Half an hour later, a middle-aged man came, dressed very well, like a business celebrity who came to discuss business, and named Chi Jiasheng to visit. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to meet Mr. Chi without an appointment.
But after the bodyguard checked that he was not carrying weapons, he took him directly into Chi Jiasheng's study, where the two talked for about half an hour.
After the man left, Chi Jiasheng called all three sons and held a small family meeting. The kidnapper was well-known, codenamed "Brother Ren". He had not done many cases in Hong Kong, and he had not done more than two in the past twenty years.
Number of people, but the targets he targeted were all rich and powerful, and he never failed.
The reason why Brother Ren never misses is also simple, because his "reputation" is quite good, which is mainly reflected in two points. First, he never rips off tickets, and will happily release people as long as he gets the ransom; second, he never rips off repeat customers, as long as he does
After one case, he promised never to harass anyone in the same family again. His cleverness lies not only in this, but the targets he chooses to attack are almost always the most valued people in every family. For example, those who are promising to become talents in the future need to focus on
Cultivate successors.
Moreover, this person's methods of committing crimes are very sophisticated. After kidnapping people, the place of detention is very hidden, and the police have never found any clues. His activities are not limited to Hong Kong, but also include the Mainland, Macau, Philippines, and Vietnam. It is said that
He is also the leader of a gangster group. He usually does maritime smuggling. He not only has a group of ruthless gangsters, but also has guns and weapons.
There were several gang fights more than ten years ago, and as long as this Brother Ren took action, he was always victorious. However, he did not have any public accomplices in Hong Kong. In the previous years, the police did not focus on cracking down on gang forces.
clues about this person.
It was Brother Ren himself who came to visit Chi Mansion. This was his usual style, and it was also one of the reasons why he impressed his subordinates that the boss was so courageous.
The content of the conversation between Brother Ren and Chi Jiasheng is said to be not complicated. He just told the other party that Chi Zhongwu is in his hands, and the condition for redemption is 50 million Hong Kong dollars plus the crown displayed by the Xianchi Auction House. If it were replaced by someone else
, Chi Jiasheng might call the police, or he might use his own methods to find out the details of the kidnapper, but the person who came was Brother Ren. Chi Jiasheng had already heard about this person and his methods, so he gave up the idea.
, agreed to his conditions.
At the internal meeting of the Chi family, the eldest son Chi Mukai advocated calling the police. It is best to trust the police in such matters. The second son Chi Muzhen advocated revenge. The Chi family must not let Brother Ren go. If he compromises with the kidnappers, there will be trouble in the future.
Infinitely, the safety of other people in the Chi family cannot be guaranteed. They spoke to this general effect, but they all emphasized that the safety of Chi Zhongwu was the most important thing, and the premise of doing anything was for Zhongwu's sake.
There is another troublesome thing. Of course, the Chi family can afford 50 million Hong Kong dollars, but the crown does not belong to the Chi family. Both Chi Mukai and Chi Muzhen reminded the old man, do they want to say hello to Xiao Changfa? They
He didn't know much about You Fang, but Chi Jiasheng knew what his grandson was doing. After Niu Ranmiao became a shareholder of Xianchi Auction House, he specifically called Chi Zhongwu to ask about his series planning. He also knew that the second crown would be
It is an authentic product provided by Xiao Changfa.
Chi Jiasheng did not hide anything on this occasion and told the truth. What is certain is that if the crown is handed over to the kidnappers, the already hyped second auction will be ruined. The plan planned by Chi Zhongwu
A series of plans will also fail and will definitely become a joke.
Only Chi Murui remained silent.
Chi Jiasheng made the final decision and ordered that the matter should be kept strictly confidential and not disclosed to the outside world. He agreed to Brother Ren's conditions and got Chi Zhongwu back before talking. As for the crown, he would personally explain it to Xiao Changfa afterwards.
As for the auction, we can try to solve it as much as possible. It was announced that a mysterious rich man from Europe had purchased the crown through an over-the-counter transaction. This person's identity was very special, and the price paid was also bizarrely high. For various reasons, Ikezaka Satoru transferred the crown to
Got him.
The auction will be held as scheduled, just shoot other things, and announcing this event at the auction site is also a very attractive and mysterious news. Who doesn't experience some twists and turns in running a business? Find a way to get through it.
Then Chi Jiasheng sent his eldest son and second son out, repeatedly telling them not to leak the information to the outside world, otherwise they would not be polite. However, he left Chi Zhongwu's father and his third son Chi Murui alone, and the two talked again.
What is going on is unknown to outsiders.
This is the situation introduced by He Yuanzhi. At this point, You Fang frowned and interjected: "Chi Jiasheng's conversation with his three sons has been ordered not to be disclosed to the outside world. How did you know about it? Is anyone looking for it?"
Mr. Xiao?"
He Yuanzhi sighed: "There are so many shady things about rich families' grudges! Chi Jiasheng ordered his son not to tell anyone about it, but that night, Chi Mukai and Chi Muchhen came to Chang Fa one after another and told them about it.
, they all apologized to Chang Fa on behalf of the Chi family, and told Mr. Chang Fa that he was not allowed to tell anyone, so never say that they had been here, and never leak the news."
You Fang asked again: "Chi Murui didn't come?"
He Yuanzhi: "Of course I didn't come. After all, Chi Zhongwu is his biological son. How could he think about this first?"
You Fang frowned: "Brother Ren, where did he come from?"
He Yuanzhi: "What I just introduced is the truth. Most outsiders don't know this person, but I have long heard that at least seven or eight wealthy people in Hong Kong have been kidnapped by him, and they all released them after paying a ransom.
This person is very capable and very courageous, and he always looks for the target before he strikes."
You Fang: "I don't know much about the underworld in Hong Kong. In addition to kidnapping, this person should be engaged in other businesses, otherwise he wouldn't have had a group of younger brothers for so many years."
He Yuanzhi: "I have inquired privately and found out that his younger brothers usually do smuggling, not only smuggling things but also people. For example, they smuggle women from the mainland to Southeast Asia for prostitution. They do all the business of forcing girls into prostitution. He never does these businesses himself.
It is all done by their subordinates. I heard that people in Guangdong have disappeared in places like train stations, and some of them have been abducted by them. In addition, they have done drug trafficking and smuggling cultural relics, but they
They are all doing business on the road, not two-way business. As for Brother Ren, he is not from the Hong Kong underworld, he is from the mainland."
You Fang: "Normally I don't have the energy to care about so many things, but since we bumped into each other this time, we can't let it go. It's just that this matter seems a bit fishy. He just kidnapped Chi Zhong Satoru and asked for money, why bother bringing a crown with him? It's purely
Are you here to cause trouble?"
He Yuanzhi nodded: "This is what I find strange. It seems that it is not just a simple kidnapping. At the same time, he also thought about Chi Zhongwu's affairs, leaving him to suffer a blow and being unable to recover, letting everyone see his jokes, and letting him
I won’t be able to hold my head high in the Chi family from now on. As far as I know, the old man now values Chi Zhongwu very much and plans to familiarize him with more of the Chi Group’s business in the future so that he can be trained in key areas.”
You Fang sighed: "I know a little bit about the situation of the Chi family. Chi Jiasheng is over seventy years old. It's time to think about the successor. The three sons each have their own merits, but there are really not many grandchildren in the third generation.
Most promising people are like Chi Zhonglong. It is rare to have Chi Zhongwu. I couldn't see it before, but this time he showed his talents... Not long ago, I was lamenting that he was born in the Chi family. Now I see
It’s both luck and misfortune.”
He Yuanzhi asked: "Do you think it was someone from the Chi family who asked Brother Ren to take action?"
You Fang asked back: "Senior brother, what do you think?"
He Yuanzhi thought: "If you really regard him as a thorn in your side, it would be easier to hire a killer to get rid of him."
You Fang shook his head: "How can it be that simple? If Chi Zhong Satoru died like that, Chi Jiasheng and the police will definitely investigate thoroughly. Once the clues are found, can the person behind the scenes have a good result? The smartest way is to
To prevent the Chi family from calling the police, and to severely attack Chi Zhongwu, it would be safest to ask the famous Brother Ren to kidnap him, and only by bringing the crown as a ransom can the explanation be justified."
He Yuanzhi raised his head and glanced at him, smiled and said: "You are indeed smart, I think so too, but Brother Ren has never made a mistake in so many years, how can he be so easily manipulated? Since someone gives you money to please
He took action, and this kidnapping is equivalent to collecting two ransoms, and he will only do it according to his own style."
You Fang shook his head: "How can he have any chance in the future? I'm afraid he has had ideas against the Xiao family over the years, right? With his senior brother around, it is naturally impossible for him to succeed, but this kind of people must be guarded against. Today
If you encounter one, simply avoid any future troubles, which can also be regarded as a warning on the road!"
He Yuanzhi: "Then what are you going to do?"
You Fang thought for a moment: "After all, I have made a friend like Chi Zhong Satoru, so I can't be sorry for him. I was also the cause of the incident. Let's ensure his safety first and let the Chi family pay the ransom to get him back. I'll do something wrong.
Just take the crown back and let Chi Zhongwu open his auction. As for Brother Ren and his gang, they have nothing to do with him. I will eradicate them."
He Yuanzhi: "Other things are easy to handle, but Brother Ren is extremely alert and cunning. He always works alone. Even his close men don't know where he is. When he is bold, he dares to go directly to the pool.
It’s a mansion, but if you’re careful, you don’t leave any trace of whereabouts, so it’s hard to find.”
You Fang: "Taking care of him is the last step. If my senior brother can't find him, he will leave it to me to find him. Without his subordinates to support him, he can't do anything on his own no matter how capable he is... The ransom will be directly transferred to an overseas account.
, it’s difficult to track him down, but someone needs to take delivery of that crown.”
He Yuanzhi: "I guess someone paid him to take action, and the attached condition is the crown. A cunning person like Brother Ren will definitely not take the crown with his own hands, let alone keep this hot thing in his own hands."
You Fang: "That doesn't matter. The person who came to get the crown must be his subordinate. I'll cut off the claws first. As for how capable this kind of person is, can he still fight against the official government? The reason why he didn't catch him before is just because the official government didn't catch him.
I only paid enough attention to it, but it really alerted the state machinery to search for this person with all its strength. Can he escape? Don't worry, I have my own plans."
He Yuanzhi was startled: "Do you want to report the crime?"
You Fang shook his head: "I won't report the case. On the contrary, I will create a big case in Hong Kong! ...By the way, both Chi Mukai and Chi Muzhen have come to see Mr. Xiao. With your temper, senior brother, I'm afraid you will go
Have you met Chi Jiasheng?"
He Yuanzhi slapped the table again: "Yes, I went to visit Chi Jiasheng later and told him that his two good sons had come to Xiao's house. The old man was furious in his heart, but he was still very restrained in front of me. It's just that
Just sighing."
You Fang: "Aren't you afraid of offending others by doing this?"
He Yuanzhi sneered: "I have offended many people in my life, even the Hong Kong Governor! But Mr. Chi is not stupid either. If he didn't know how to measure, he wouldn't be where he is today, and he wouldn't tell this directly.
Looking for my son to settle accounts. Although I have a straight temper, I am not a fool. My friendship with the Chi family must first depend on my friendship with Chi Jiasheng. Among the next generation, I will of course choose to make friends with Chi Murui and Chi Zhongwu.
, if you must offend someone, let the brothers Chi Mukai and Chi Muzhen be unlucky, they brought it on themselves."
You Fang sighed: "Yes, regardless of Chi Jiasheng's instructions, he later leaked the news to outsiders to show his good will. He did not put Chi Zhongwu's safety first... By the way, I asked you to help me.
Busy, no matter how the crown is delivered to the kidnappers, I want to get it and dispose of it within twelve hours before delivery."
He Yuanzhi: "I can do this. It's just a matter of saying hello to Chi Jiasheng. It's not a big problem. As long as you don't take the crown away, is there anything else you need my help with?"
You Fang: "Find me a gun."
He Yuanzhi: "A pistol? What model is it?"
You Fang shook his head: "No, if I want to get a pistol, I don't need to ask for your help. I want a typewriter."
He Yuanzhi was taken aback: "Typewriter? This is difficult! Are you going to go to the battlefield?" That is a slang term. Typewriter refers to a machine gun. This thing is almost impossible to see in a street fight. It is difficult to use a rifle.
Cases, the presence of machine guns in security cases is simply unimaginable.
You Fang continued to shake his head: "On what battlefield? I want to leave it at the scene of the crime. This thing will not be taken back. It is a gift to the police, so no one can find out that you got it in. If it is not difficult,
, I won’t ask you for help!”
He Yuanzhi: "I can only try my best, but I can't guarantee that I can get it in a short time. When do you plan to do it?"
Yu Fang: "Of course, after Ikezhong Satoru returns home, we will do it as soon as we get the typewriter. If you are not sure, I will find someone else."
He Yuanzhi: "Then you should find a reliable person to think of a solution at the same time. If you can get it, I will be responsible for transporting it safely to Hong Kong and handing it over to you... You Fang, how big of a case do you plan to do? Don't
Throw yourself in!"
You Fang smiled: "Who would have thought that I would use a typewriter instead of using secret methods? Don't worry, I will protect myself!"
The two chatted for a while, and the matter was almost settled. He Yuanzhi rubbed his hands and said a little shyly: "You Fang, I know you are more capable than me. If there is really news about Brother Ren, you want to take action."
, don’t forget to inform me.”
This time it was You Fang's turn to be stunned for a moment: "What are you doing? You don't want to take action personally, do you?"
He Yuanzhi said with regret: "These years when I married into the Xiao family, I didn't have to deal with any trouble myself. I really miss the days of the martial arts world, the days of wandering around for pleasure and revenge. I have always longed for the old man's legend.
Although it is impossible to inherit the mantle of a generation of earth masters, why not find a chance to live in Jianghu Addiction Headquarters?"
You almost didn't laugh out loud. How could you still have such a temper at such a young age? Xiao Yu's trouble-making temperament is definitely hereditary! He could only advise: "Brother, don't forget your identity today. You are so dignified.
Madam, why do you need to go through the dangers of rivers and lakes if you have a rich body?"
Mrs. Xiao replied somewhat unhappily: "Who asked you to call me senior brother? You have already taken action and you still don't let me take action?... In terms of your status and honor, what about you?... Otherwise, I have you.
How can there be any danger here? If you think everything is safe, just let me know. Whether it’s using secret techniques or using fists and kicks, let me use my hands at least."
You Fang gritted his teeth and said: "Senior brother has many talents, how about you send a few capable men to follow me?"
Mrs. Xiao glared: "Can it be the same? You know what I mean!"
You Fang sighed and could only say in a surrendering tone: "Forget it, I surrender to you! If I can find Brother Ren and the arrangements are foolproof, I will notify my senior brother to show off the power of He Nuxia!
...By the way, why didn’t your kung fu and secret techniques be passed on to Xiao Yu?”
