Chapter 059 Jinjiang Debut
In Cixin Hall, Zeng Aoxue held Bai Mian's hand anxiously. Ever since Xu Dashan sent that text message to the kidnappers, she has been scolding Xu Dashan:
"Look, it's all your fault! It was not safe for my son to be with two hooligans, and you added fuel to the fire! Even if you wanted to teach my son a lesson, couldn't you wait until he returned home safely? Now the situation is serious. If anything happens to my son today, I will fight you!"
Xu Dashan squatted on the ground and retorted impatiently: "Enough, are you done yet? My son has gone astray. I am his father. Don't I have the right to discipline him? Besides, I don't think those two hooligans dare to do anything. In broad daylight, do they dare to kill me?"
Just as the two were about to quarrel, Zeng Aoxue's cell phone suddenly received a new message. A group of people quickly gathered over to take a look. Zeng Aoxue opened her phone and saw another MMS with a photo in it. There was only a bloody little finger in the photo.
There was a line of words under the photo: Send the money immediately, one hour late will result in a broken finger.
Zeng Aoxue fainted after just one look, and the onlookers were also frightened and screamed. Things turned out like this, Lame Brother did not dare to delay and quickly called the police.
Seeing that a text message of his had led to such consequences, Xu Dashan dared not argue anymore and obediently followed Brother Que's arrangements. After the police arrived at Ci Xin Tang, they first sent the unconscious Zeng Aoxue to the hospital, and then asked Xu Dashan to call and negotiate with the kidnappers.
The two brothers Damao didn't know that the other party had called the police, so they just casually told Xu Dashan their addresses on the phone. They asked Xu Dashan to withdraw all the 8 million yuan in deposits in cash and send it to Room 1302 of Qingfeng E-sports Hotel. Anyway, they had hostages in their hands, so Xu Dashan would not dare to use tricks.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Dashan said to the police with a bitter face: "Brother police, I can't take out 8 million. The money is in my wife's name, and she was the one who deposited the money. Only she knows the bank account and the secrets. She never told me! Now she is unconscious again, this, this, this...what should I do..."
The police communicated with the bank. Due to the emergency situation, in order to rescue the hostages, the bank agreed to temporarily lend 8 million in cash, but the police had to return it on the same day.
In this way, the police got eight million in cash. They put all the cash into a huge suitcase, and then drove Xu Dashan to the entrance of Qingfeng E-Sports Hotel.
In order to avoid harming innocent people, the police evacuated the hotel staff and other guests as soon as they arrived. Although the police acted secretly, Da Mao and Er Mao were both experienced gangsters. When choosing a room, they deliberately picked a room with a favorable location. Through the window of the room, they could see the hotel gate.
Seeing a group of people filing out of the hotel gate, Da Mao suddenly felt something was wrong. He said to himself, "Oh no, that grandson might have called the police!"
Just as the police evacuated the crowd, Zeng Aoxue received another text message from the kidnappers:
"Don't play tricks. Bring the money up within an hour. You can only come alone, or you will never see your son again!"
After seeing this text message, the police decided to advance the plan. They handed the suitcase with money to Xu Dashan and asked Xu Dashan to walk into the hotel. According to the original plan, after Xu Dashan knocked on the door, once the kidnappers opened the door, the special police waiting in the corridor would immediately move out. If the kidnappers only let Xu Dashan leave the money at the door, the special police would wait in the corridor and catch them when the kidnappers opened the door to take the money.
The person in charge of leading this mission was Officer Chen from Qingshui Town Police Station. He had developed multiple plans for the rescue operation, but he did not expect that after Xu Dashan entered the hotel, there was no news for more than ten minutes.
He hurriedly sent a message to the special police guarding the corridor and soon received a reply - Xu Dashan accidentally fell down the stairs while dragging his suitcase upstairs and was now unconscious.
Qingfeng E-sports Hotel has no elevator, only stairs. The so-called "room 1302" is actually on the third floor. Xu Dashan fell from the second floor and his money was scattered all over the floor.
Xiao Chen frowned. How could Xu Dashan fail at the critical moment? All his plans were disrupted.
Seeing that Xu Dashan had not sent the money yet, Damao also panicked. He put the knife on Xu Shaoan's neck, took another photo, and sent it to Zeng Aoxue. He was threatening the other party that if he didn't give the money, he would really kill him.
After receiving this photo, Xiao Chen was extremely anxious. There was only half an hour left before the time set by the kidnappers, but Xu Shaoan's parents had fallen into a coma. Now the police and the criminals were in a stalemate, and Xu Shaoan's life was hanging by a thread.
Several police officers discussed the issue and gave Xiao Chen suggestions, but he rejected them one by one.
"Brother Chen, can you ask his other relatives to send the money?"
Xiao Chen: "No, the kidnappers must have Xu Shaoan's parents come to deliver the money. If they don't see his parents, the kidnappers won't open the door."
"Then why not just let the special police in the corridor break in?"
Xiao Chen: "Of course there is no problem for the SWAT to break the door, but we are afraid that this action will scare the kidnappers and cause them to hurt the hostages. We must put the safety of the hostages first."
"Brother Chen, I just saw a sniper coming. Is there any hope on the sniper's side?"
Xiao Chen glanced in the direction of the opposite building and shook his head regretfully: "The sniper is already in place, but the kidnappers are very aware of anti-reconnaissance. They pulled up the curtains, making it difficult for the sniper to see the situation in the house."
Just as the police were looking for a breakthrough, a taxi drove over. Xiao Chen immediately stopped the taxi: "The police are performing their duties. No unauthorized persons are allowed to approach!"
Bai Mian came down from the back seat with a thin woman. She was the second client of today. Bai Mian pointed at her and said, "Her name is Song Xia. She is an expert in rock climbing. I calculated that she could help you break the impasse today."
Seeing Bai Mian, Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment. Although he had handled countless cases, he was still deeply impressed by Bai Mian's face. After all, this was the first example of "resurrection from the dead" he had encountered in his career. He said seriously: "It's you, what do you mean by "calculated"?"
Bai Mian: "It's fortune telling. By feeling a person's pulse, I can predict a person's future. I predicted that you would need her today, so I brought her here."
Xiao Chen didn't believe it at all. He waved his hand and said, "It's very dangerous here. Don't make trouble. Stay away from here!"
Just after Xiao Chen turned around, Bai Mian repeated what he had just said: "The kidnappers pulled up the curtains, making it difficult for the sniper to see what was going on in the house."
Xiao Chen turned around in shock and immediately stopped Bai Mian with his eyes. He asked in disbelief, "How did you know?"
Bai Mian tilted his head: "I've already said it, of course I calculated it!"
When taking Zeng Aoxue's pulse for the second time, Bai Mian calculated that the fake kidnapping had turned into a real kidnapping. Xu Shaoan would lose a finger because of this, but he would not die. The second client present was the key to saving him.
After the police took Xu Dashan away from Ci Xin Tang, Bai Mian told Song Xia everything he had foreseen. Song Xia was also a kind-hearted person, so he agreed to help without saying a word.
As time passed, Xu Shaoan's condition became more and more critical. Xiao Chen could not think of a better solution, so he had to adopt Bai Mian's suggestion and let Song Xia participate in the case.
Song Xia put on professional rock climbing equipment, went around to the back of the building, and began to crawl up along the back of the building. She was like a nimble gecko, using her hands and feet, and soon she reached the third floor.
Under the guidance of the police, Song Xia found the window of Room 1302. The window was open a crack. She carefully opened the window a little wider, then quietly reached into the room, grabbed the curtain, and pulled hard, and the left half of the curtain was pulled open.
All the onlookers were worried for her, but fortunately Song Xia was quick and after opening half of the curtains, she quickly left the window of 1302, climbed down along the building, and reached the ground safely.
Xiao Chen was very nervous. It was risky to only open half of the curtains, but for Song Xia's safety, he couldn't let her open both sides of the curtains. Fortunately, the result was the same as Bai Mian predicted. Da Mao and Er Mao were both standing behind the left half of the curtain. Once the curtain was opened, their positions were exposed.
Da Mao and Er Mao were waiting anxiously in the room when they suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the window. They instinctively wanted to go over to take a look, but as soon as they reached the window, the curtains were drawn open, and they were right under the sniper's sight.
With two "bangs", Damao and Ermao fell in a pool of blood. The danger of the hostages was lifted and the special police guarding the corridor were finally able to step forward. They broke the door and rescued Xu Shaoan, and sent Xu Shaoan and Xu Dashan, father and son, to the hospital together. Xu Shaoan broke a finger and bled too much, so he was sent to the operating room, while Xu Dashan only suffered some scratches and woke up soon after entering the hospital.
The hostage rescue operation was successfully completed, and Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He specially thanked Bai Mian and Song Xia. Song Xia rescued people bravely, and Xiao Chen decided to apply to the bureau to give her a bonus, but he still found it hard to believe Bai Mian's fortune-telling ability.
Before leaving, he looked at Bai Mian with a puzzled look: "How did you predict the follow-up perfectly? Are you really not going to tell me?"
Bai Mian smiled and waved his hand: "I told you from the beginning, Sir Chen!"
After saying goodbye to the police force, Bai Mian sent Song Xia back to Ci Xin Tang, and then took a taxi to the hospital alone. Zeng Aoxue and Xu Dashan had both woken up, and the doctor told them that Xu Shaoan's severed finger was contaminated and could no longer be reattached.
Zeng Aoxue was heartbroken upon hearing this. She beat Xu Dashan on the back and said, "It's all your fault! The master clearly told us that if we didn't pay the money, our son would be in great danger. You refused to listen and sent that text message to provoke the kidnappers. Now our son is like this. It's all your fault!"
Xu Dashan held his head in silence, letting his wife beat him. Bai Mian walked into the ward, leaned against the door and looked at the couple, saying leisurely, "Mr. Xu, this result is probably not what you wanted to see, right?"
Xu Dashan was furious and said, "What are you talking about! Of course I don't want to, what father wants to see his son become disabled?"
Bai Mian blinked: "I'm not talking about this, I'm saying——"
"Xu Shaoan is not dead, you should be very disappointed, right?"
