"Do you have any acquaintances at Qiwei Escort Agency?" Xiao Zishan asked immediately.
"Exactly." Sun Chang said calmly, "His shopkeeper and bodyguards are all from the same hometown." It turns out that the Qiwei Bodyguard Agency is from Jiangxi from top to bottom, and the bodyguard route they follow is limited to Guangzhou.
When I arrived in Nanchang, Jiangxi, many of the escorts in the escort agency were brothers from the same discipline that Sun Chang used to practice martial arts with.
Xiao Zishan did not dare to make his own decision on whether to ask the escort agency to intervene. After all, the matters involved were serious. After hesitating for a moment, he just said that he would discuss it later and ordered him to close the front and rear doors first and be cautious.
The executive committee here got the news and hurriedly held an emergency meeting - someone dared to kidnap the people from time to time! It was unbearable. They all wanted to give them a good look - in addition to looking for Ran Yao, the former jcss
Xi Yazhou came over and mobilized a few reasoning enthusiasts who were full of Conan Doyle and full of Christie. Xi Yazhou simply took out several hidden five-shot shotguns. Someone suggested that he should make some hand grenades for "the natives".
"Try it." Some people were preparing to make sulfuric acid bombs. In the midst of the turmoil, Ma Qianxu stood up and said:
"We can't go with so many people."
"Why?!" Wang Gongzheng was furious. When he saw someone objecting, he immediately asked.
"Going like this is adding trouble, not helping." Ma Qianxu said, "That's Guangzhou in the Ming Dynasty. We're not familiar with it at all. What's the use of going there with so many people? We don't even have a map, so I'm just telling you that Mr. Wen is in Guanzhou.
Where can you find it?"
Everyone looked at each other, as if no one had thought of this problem.
"The affairs of the Ming Dynasty still have to be solved by the people of the Ming Dynasty. To put it bluntly, this matter requires intelligence. As long as we know the whereabouts of Mr. Wen, we can handle it in any way, whether it is rescue by force or ransom with money, it will not be a problem.
With so many people making such a fuss, it would not be easy for Zishan and Wang Gong to explain it to their collaborators over there."
"Redemption? You can't imagine that." Someone here was already aggrieved, "Don't do anything about being a coward!" These words caused a buzz of agreement. Although the time travelers were full of words: "No, don't do it!"
"Underestimating the wisdom of the ancients," "The ancients were also very powerful" and so on. In fact, my heart is full of modern people's sense of superiority - "civilized modern people" compromise with "ignorant and backward ancients". Just thinking about it
It seriously hurt their souls.
"If it can be solved quickly and safely, compromise may not be a bad idea." Ma Qianzhu insisted on his opinion, "Force rescue, there is no intelligence, and secondly, it may pose a threat to Mr. Wen's personal safety. Finally,"
He reminded everyone, "Our goal is not to fight against the underworld of the Ming Dynasty."
Seeing that everyone's mood had stabilized a little, Ma Qianzhu continued: "Let's prepare with both hands. Ran Yao still has to go and check the situation at the scene. I believe his criminal investigation knowledge is enough. This is not a secret room murder."
There is no need for those who engage in reasoning to go there."
A few mystery enthusiasts made weak protests.
"In case we need to use force to solve the problem, Bei Wei is already there. I suggest that the sports team send two more people to assist him. If there are more people, it will be difficult to perform."
Lin Shenhe squeezed over and said, "I'll go too. Bring me the small-caliber rifle from Emei. I have played with sniper rifles in the United States, and the bullets are basically flawless within 500 meters."
"Okay, you go too."
"That's it." Seeing that there were still people who were eager to try, Ma Qianzhu stopped them with a wave of his hand, and said to Wang Gong: "Tell Zishan that you should try your best to use Ming people's power and don't be too superstitious about force."
"good."
The discussion here was over, and everyone was busy packing up their equipment. Ran Yao brought his camera and criminal investigation record book. He originally had fingerprint collection tools, but they were useless - Daming had no fingerprint files to check. The sports team brought them
Three five-shot shotguns, there were not enough bullets, and there was no time to load new ammunition. Each one was only equipped with ten rounds of bullets. I also brought some reconnaissance equipment: night vision goggles, wireless beacons, and bugs. I will buy them soon.
No, but I can still get a voice recorder, a microphone and a camera. As for walkie-talkies, smoke canisters, tear gas canisters, gas masks and other miscellaneous items that are useful or not, they are all packed in two large backpacks.
Ran Yao followed Xiao Zishan and Sun Chang, inspected Mr. Wen's room and the entire courtyard, and drew a few pictures. Within a few hours of Sun Chang's visit, several more Australians appeared in the courtyard.
The kidnappers were all surprised. They saw this new Australian didn't say anything, just hunkered down in the house and wandered around the yard. Sometimes he climbed the ladder, and sometimes he lay on the ground to look at it with a small glass mirror, and from time to time he took a pen.
I scribbled the same thing on the notebook, thinking that this was probably an Australian policeman - I just wondered how this Australian policeman came so quickly.
After spending more than an hour of investigation, Ran Yao had roughly understood the entire crime process.
"This is a multi-person crime." He introduced the situation to the murderous rescue team in the room. The large square table in the room was erected to serve as a temporary blackboard, and the black rosewood tabletop was poisoned by lime pancakes.
"This is the route for criminals to come in." He drew a floor plan of the courtyard on the table. "The courtyard wall here is very high, about 7-8 meters. You can't get in with a ladder. It should be a flying one."
There are obvious scratches from the claws and buckles on the wall, and a large number of tiles have fallen off.”
"Is there really such a thing as flying claws?"
"Yes, I have read some information. As late as the 1940s and 1950s, there were still cases of theft using such tools."
"After the criminals came in, they first used incense to incense the servants in the outer courtyard, and then came in and incensed our four comrades one by one, proceeding from east to west. After waiting outside for a while, they calmly searched each room.
.
"Then they broke the padlock of the room at the crossing point and tried to pry open the fence. There were at least three to four signs of prying with iron tools on the fence. Judging from the wear marks, they were probably crude knives or other similar long iron bars.
products.
“In the end, they took away Mr. Wen who was in a coma, and they directly opened the door to the backyard and went out.
"Although the traces are not obvious enough, judging from the footprints extracted from the mud in the courtyard and scratches on the wall, there are at least three sets of footprints of different sizes, and there is another set of footprints outside the courtyard wall, so it is inferred that there are at least four people. Criminals
Their height ranges from 1.55 meters to 1.60 meters. They carry special wall-climbing tools, weapons and stupefying drugs. They should be professional criminals.
"There is a rather peculiar phenomenon, that is, one of the four sets of footprints extracted is barefoot. Although it is a common phenomenon for ancient people to walk barefoot. But this is Guangzhou City, not a remote small county. This can be used as a breakthrough for reconnaissance.
.”
"Do you mean those social groups who are accustomed to going barefoot?"
"Yes, at least it shows that there are people in this group of criminals who are accustomed to going barefoot. This is unlikely to be a special hobby of one person, but should be a habit shared by a certain social group."
"Who could that be?" Everyone was suspicious.
"I'm not a historian." Ran Yao said helplessly. In fact, it is not difficult to put this case in modern times. The traces left by this group of people are almost the same as not wearing pants under modern criminal investigation technology. Unfortunately, this is from the 17th century.
Daming had neither fingerprint files nor criminal record files to check, and he knew nothing about the social conditions of this ancient city. The usual methods of handling cases were useless.
Everyone was a little disappointed. They thought that as soon as professional criminal investigators came into action, these kind of rogues would immediately show their prototypes. It seems that this is not the case at all. Modern criminal investigation relies heavily on intelligence materials and files accumulated over a long period of time.
"Is there anything else we can see? For example, a motive or something." Xiao Zishan continued to ask, "Is it premeditated or improvised?"
"It was a deliberate attempt. Judging from the reconstruction of the entire crime process: the criminals knew the situation in the courtyard very clearly. There are more than 20 rooms here, large and small. Only the incense was used in the occupied houses. The windows of the uninhabited rooms were decorated with incense.
, I didn’t even find the medicine hole.
"The reason why I use Mixiang is obviously because I know that you have strong defense capabilities. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to succeed - Mr. Wen is a person who carries anti-wolf spray anytime and anywhere.
"And when Bei Wei introduced the situation, he also said that you encountered someone infiltrating in the past few days. This should be a stepping stone for criminals.
"As for the motive, it's a bit puzzling." Ran Yao touched his chin, "From the list of stolen items, it's obvious that they came for property, but just kidnapping Mr. Wen seems to be a purposeful kidnapping."
"Do they know the identity of Mr. Wen's Australian maritime businessman?"
"I think we must know." Ran Yao pointed to the stolen list, "This group of people is interested not only in the money, but also in your so-called Australian goods - a lot of Ming Dynasty soft goods. Instead, they didn't take your shoes.
Socks, pens and other modern gadgets were stolen. They were obviously well prepared."
"you mean?"
"This matter is not theft, nor is it as simple as kidnapping." Ran Yao shook his head, "I think the kidnapping of Mr. Wen may not be for the purpose of blackmail."
Everyone discussed quietly for a while and agreed to use the power of Ming Dynasty people to find out the news. Xiao Zishan called Sun Chang: Call the boss of Qiwei Escort Bureau.
