Chapter 60: Be Qualified
Following the guidance of the Ragdoll Cat, the car soon drove to a fork in the road.
There are many residential buildings nearby, but not many shops along the street, which shows that this place is relatively remote.
"Meow lost the car right here."
The Ragdoll cat jumped out of the stopped car window and stood under the lost street lamp.
Si Chen and Lin Ting got off the car one after another.
Lin Ting was very perceptive to Si Chen's slightly changed expression, "What's wrong, Brother Si?"
"The email address is nearby. Dachuan and his team checked the surveillance cameras nearby before, but didn't find many clues. Now Maomao has also lost his owner in this area. It seems the kidnapper must be nearby."
Si Chen called Tian Tian at the police station and asked, "Pull up a new topographic map of the area near the post office and send it to my phone."
Lin Ting searched everywhere for traces of stray animals nearby, but after a while, the black cat came over with several stray cats nearby.
The one walking in front was a big tabby cat with tattoos on its arms. There was ferocity and murderous intent in its eyes as it walked, as if it was ready for a fight.
"Hello." Lin Ting squatted on the ground and took the initiative to greet the tattooed boss.
"What does the human want with the cat?"
The tattooed boss's voice reveals a sense of dominance.
"I want to ask you some information. Don't worry, it's paid." Lin heard this and took out the meat that he had bought from the supermarket in advance and asked the boss to cut it, and put it in front of the cats.
"Can I eat it?"
"The boss said there are a lot of cat dealers these days, so the cats are not allowed to just throw food at people, or even pick up things from the trash can."
"Although I'm very hungry, I'd better not eat for the sake of my life."
'Recently, several stray cats in the community have been taken away by cat traffickers.'
"Otherwise, you should ask the boss."
Just as all the cats looked at the flower-armed boss, Lin Ting, who could understand cats' speech, took the initiative to explain, "Don't worry, I'm not a cat dealer, and I'm not here to catch you."
Lin Ting tried to reach forward so that the cats could smell her scent.
"Smells so good, human."
"This sweet-smelling human shouldn't be a bad person. Do you want to eat him, Boss?"
Among these cats, it is obvious that the one with flowery arms is the boss, and the other cats will listen to him.
The flower-armed boss stared at Lin Ting with his sharp, animal-like eyes, "Eat it."
Following the order from the boss with flower arms, the other cats rushed forward and ate the meat in the plastic bag.
"Slow down, don't crowd, the boss said we need to be well-mannered."
As a sound was heard, the cats automatically lined up and ate voraciously, fearing that they would not have enough to eat.
"Eat slowly, I have more in the car." Lin Ting was really worried that they would feel stomach discomfort if they ate so much, but stray cats were just like that, so there was no point in saying anything.
However, the big cat with flower arms among the group of cats did not come forward to eat. Instead, he stood in front of the other cats with his tail raised and faced Lin Ting.
"Why don't you go eat?" Lin Ting poked the ear of the domineering boss with exposed tattoos.
The flower-armed boss didn't dodge, nor did he breathe at Lin Ting. He just shook his tail twice and said, "Get things done."
"Human, what do you want to know?"
Lin Ting didn't expect that the tattooed man was such a responsible person.
Lin Ting asked seriously, "Have you been wandering around here all the time?"
"Yes."
"Have there been any strangers around here in recent days? They were driving a van, and there should be a woman in it." Lin Ting took the phone handed over by Si Chen and sent the car captured in the surveillance screenshot to the tattooed boss.
They checked the license plate number through surveillance, but unfortunately the license plate number was a clone and there was no useful information at all.
The guy with tattoos came forward and stared at the car on the screen.
'have. '
"The car that caught Miao also looked like this. When Miao saw it, she thought it was the cat dealer's car and was about to follow it secretly. She saw them parked in a place and got out of the car. There were one, two, three, four or five men, each with a hunting rifle in his hand."
'There was also a woman they tied up and brought in.'
"Meow secretly went to the car to check, but there was no meow. It wasn't the cat dealer's car, so I came back."
"Hunting rifle?"
Si Chen couldn't help but frown. "Our country has strict gun control. If this hunting rifle wasn't privately manufactured, it must have been imported from overseas."
Lin Ting took out a photo of Ms. Zhang and her boyfriend and placed it in front of the tattooed man. "Is this man here? And is this the woman they tied up?"
Si Chen stared intently at the tattooed-armed boss in front of him.
Although I don’t understand what the cat is saying, I will still feel nervous.
"Meow, I don't know."
"They have hunting rifles in their hands, so Meow doesn't dare to go forward."
'Meow didn't see their faces.'
Lin Ting suddenly had an idea and looked at Si Chen and said, "Brother Si, can you find a photo of the clothes Miss Zhang was wearing on the day she disappeared?"
Si Chen immediately understood what Lin Ting meant. "Wait a moment. I'll contact Miss Zhang's assistant and ask him to look for the surveillance footage from the day she disappeared. There should be footage of her wearing the same clothing."
Miss Zhang's boyfriend is an unemployed vagrant, and there is no way to find out what color clothes he was wearing that day.
It would be enough if we could be sure that the guy with tattooed arms saw Miss Zhang.
When Si Chen received the photos sent by Ms. Zhang's assistant, he felt that he was one step closer to the truth.
He handed the phone to Lin Ting again and asked, "Is the woman you saw at that time wearing clothes like this?"
The tattooed man tilted his head and looked around.
'yes. '
Lin Ting nodded at Si Chen in surprise, and then continued to negotiate with the flower-armed boss, "Then can you take us to the place where you saw this woman? I can help you prepare ten bags of cat food in exchange, or you can take them home with me and I will be responsible for helping them find their parents."
"We definitely don't just randomly look for people. We go through a series of screenings and only adopt people who are sure they can support you."
"Don't worry, just think about it slowly. If you don't come back with me, I'll prepare cat food for you." Lin Ting couldn't help but rub the head of the tattooed boss.
'good'
The tattooed boss did not immediately agree to Lin Ting's request.
While she was negotiating, Si Chen had already called the bureau to request support.
'People keep up.'
The big man with tattoos walked in front, and the black cat and the ragdoll followed closely behind. Lin Ting moved the uneaten meat of the stray cats into the grass, allowing them to continue eating in the grass in the green belt.
The traffic on the roadside is very dangerous.
Si Chen parked his car in a parking lot planned in front of a nearby shop.
They didn't know what kind of terrain the kidnappers were looking for. If they drove there rashly, their car would be so large that it would easily be discovered by the kidnappers, and they would be afraid of alerting the kidnappers.
Lin Ting and Si Chen followed the tattooed-armed boss on foot.
The big man with tattoos walked and stopped, taking good care to see if they were keeping up. Before they caught up, he would take the initiative to stop and wait.
After half an hour's journey, they followed the tattooed boss to an abandoned factory.
