Chapter 177 Case Context
Zhou Yi drove to the detention center, showed his ID, and took Sun Kun out of the cell where he was sleeping soundly.
Sitting in the interrogation room of the detention center, Sun Kun was stunned when he saw that the person opposite him was Zhou Yi.
"Sun Kun, do you still remember me?"
Sun Kun nodded repeatedly and said anxiously, "Comrade police, I confessed everything. I'm not hiding anything."
"There are still a few questions that I need to confirm with you."
Sun Kun shrank his neck and nodded quickly: "Okay, okay."
"You said you were following him for the purpose of kidnapping Qian Lailai. How long did you do that?"
Sun Kun said without hesitation, "It's only about a week. After school, parents pick up their children at the school gate every day. Qian Lailai is usually picked up by his mother in a small red car. After following them a few times, I found that they usually go directly from school to home without stopping in between."
"That residential complex they have is too upscale. The security guards at the gate are tall and strong. I knew there was no hope after passing through there once."
To Zhou Yi, the security guards in Hongcheng Baodi were just ordinary people, but to Sun Kun, a 50-year-old middle-aged man, it would not be a big deal if those security guards beat him to death.
"Go on."
"Okay, okay. So I've been thinking about how to kidnap the hostages. I actually prepared those notes in advance. Everything is ready, just waiting for the right moment."
"But I really didn't have a chance. After all, I couldn't kidnap someone at the school gate, and I had no idea what they were doing over the weekend. I was about to give up, but two days before the kidnapping, the loan shark stopped me on my way home from get off work, beat me up, and threatened to take my house if I didn't pay him back. So, I was really at my wit's end, so I decided to take a gamble and just stop them and rob them. I even borrowed a van from a friend to do this."
"But that junky car was a complete bummer. It couldn't catch up to the other car, and the traffic was so bad we almost lost it. In the end, Qian Lailai's mom took him back to the villa area and never came out again. I thought it was hopeless, angry and hungry, so I bought a pancake at a roadside stall. I happened to see a middle-aged woman walking out of the villa area with a child. I couldn't see them clearly, but I recognized the school uniform. I immediately followed them and followed them all the way to the nearby park. When I got closer, I saw that the child was Qian Lailai."
"I was so happy. I thought it was God's will that the sparrow would not die of starvation. I took the opportunity to pick up the child and ran away. I put him in the car and drove away."
These were things that had been confessed during the previous interrogation, and Zhou Yi remembered them very clearly. He asked Sun Kun to repeat them to see if he had lied before.
"Be more specific, be specific to every detail. How did you take advantage of the opportunity? How did you escape?"
"Just...just when that woman wasn't paying attention, I just...just picked up the child and ran away..." Sun Kun said, gesturing with his hands.
"What was the woman doing at the time? Why did she take her eyes off the child?"
The previous interrogation of Sun Kun was not so detailed, because from the perspective of evidence needed for handling the case, it was only necessary to confirm the facts of the crime and ensure that the confession was clear and logically complete, without having to go into every detail.
But now Zhou Yi needs it. He wishes he could have a holographic projection to restore every frame and every second of what happened at that time.
Sun Kun was a little puzzled, but seeing the other party's serious expression, he could only squint his eyes and try hard to recall.
"Well... it seems someone bumped into the woman, and her wallet fell out of her hand. She bent down to pick up the money, which was about a meter behind her. I was so excited at the time, thinking this was my chance, that I rushed over, grabbed the child, and ran away without thinking."
"Were there any balloons in the money or in the woman's hand at the time?"
"Balloon?" Sun Kun thought for a moment and said, "No...I don't think so..."
"Are you sure?"
"Should be... sure. Oh, but there's a vendor selling balloons not far ahead."
Zhou Yi felt that his speculation had basically been verified.
"Sun Kun, after you kidnapped Qian Lailai, did anyone chase you?"
Sun Kun immediately replied, "Yes, there was a man chasing me from behind. He almost caught up with me. Luckily, I was quick enough to jump into the car. He even threw a rock at my car, but he missed."
"Male or female?" Zhou Yi asked hurriedly.
"It was a man. I didn't know it when I ran away at first, but when I was driving, I took a look in the rearview mirror and saw it was a man wearing black clothes. I thought it was a caring person from the neighborhood, and I was scared to death."
"Do you remember what this person looks like?"
Sun Kun shook his head repeatedly: "How could I remember that? I almost had a heart attack at that time."
"What did Su Jun say to you?" Zhou Yi had already finished asking the question and the police in the detention center were about to take Sun Kun back. Just as Sun Kun stood up, he suddenly said something out of the blue.
Sun Kun didn't even react. It took him two seconds to realize it. He turned around and asked, "Officer Zhou, were you asking me that just now?"
"It's okay." Zhou Yi waved his hand. Sun Kun didn't react at all to Su Jun's name. It seemed that he was not pretending.
The additional information obtained from Sun Kun finally confirmed Zhou Yi's speculation.
The cause and effect of Qian Lailai's kidnapping case became clearer and more complete with the addition of this piece of puzzle.
It can be said that to some extent, Qian Lailai’s two kidnappings were not two cases, but one case.
This is the outline of the case that Zhou Yi speculated based on all the clues.
Maybe two to three months ago, the criminal gang that had been roaming around the country came to Hongcheng and began looking for targets.
For some currently unknown reasons, this gang came into contact with Su Jun, and at that time Su Jun should have asked Yao Yulin for the first payment.
It was said to be a loan, but in fact Su Jun was blackmailing Yao Yulin.
Firstly, Yao Yuling did cheat on her husband during their relationship and found a rich older man named Qian Hongxing.
Second, Su Jun had been in there for more than six years, and no matter how dumb he was, he knew that he was tricked into getting in.
In addition, most criminals are extremely selfish people who only put the blame on others and do not reflect on their own behavior.
Through their contact with Su Jun, the criminal gang learned that Su Jun's ex-girlfriend was married to a famous entrepreneur in the city and had a seven-year-old son.
Therefore, Qian Hongxing and his son were identified as the targets of this crime.
This also explains why Qian Hongxing and his son were targeted. Every villa in Hongcheng Baodi is occupied by rich people.
But Su Jun could only provide the target of the crime and was unable to find out the true situation of Qian Hongxing's family.
So the woman with the alias Nana appeared, approached Liu Jianshe by playing mahjong, and used him to understand Qian Hongxing's personal and family situation under the guise of romance, in preparation for the criminal gang to formulate a kidnapping plan.
According to Sun Kun, Qian Lailai's movements were consistent with those of a seven-year-old. Yao Yuling always picked him up and dropped him off at school. Yao Yuling herself drove a red sedan, which Zhou Yi had seen in the villa's garage and had likely not been used since the incident. Qian Lailai spent weekends with Qian Hongxing and his wife, always traveling in Liu Jianshe's Audi A6.
Kidnappers have almost no chance of carrying out the kidnapping unless they rob the car by force, but that would be very risky because with a driver driving, the family of three would sit in the back seat, and the child would naturally sit between the parents, so the success rate of an open robbery would be extremely low.
Professional criminals with rich experience in committing crimes generally would not take such a big risk. In their perception, killing a few people is not important, but as long as there is a green mountain, there will be no fear of running out of firewood.
Zhou Yi speculated that their original intention was to use Liu Jianshe to complete the kidnapping plan. After all, Liu Jianshe was the driver and the person who had most frequent contact with Qian Hongxing's family.
But it is very likely that something happened in the middle, which led to Liu Jianshe's first option being abandoned.
So Su Jun became their second choice.
This also explains why he was able to find the villa even though Yao Yuling had never told him its address.
The day that Su Jun found Yao Yulin for the second time should have been the day when the gang planned to carry out the kidnapping plan.
Su Jun made a big fuss and said he would sue Qian Hongxing, but in fact he was forcing Yao Yulin to let the nanny take her son out. In this situation, most parents would let their children avoid it, not to mention that Yao Yulin already felt guilty about Su Jun.
But the key point is that Su Jun said that someone was selling balloons in the park next door, and he also gave the child money to buy balloons.
The intention is obvious: to guide the child to the park next door. In most cases, adults will go along with the child on such small matters.
Although this result is not absolutely inevitable, the probability of the child going out is very high after such an operation. Besides, Yao Yuling's brain is not very good, and Sister Yang, as a nanny, will not express any opinions.
The results also proved that this design worked.
There must have been kidnappers lying in ambush in the park, and there were at least two of them, the one selling balloons and the one chasing Sun Kun.
The person who bumped into Sister Yang and distracted her attention might be the man in black who was chasing Sun Kun.
But outside of their plan, a person appeared, Sun Kun.
They never imagined that while the mantis stalks the cicada, there is another oriole behind it.
The key point is that Huang Que is a self-taught amateur kidnapper. Before they took action, he kidnapped the target Qian Lailai.
Zhou Yi estimated that the reason they failed to catch up with Sun Kun, a 50-year-old middle-aged man, was because the situation happened too suddenly, causing the man in black who was responsible for catching him to fail to react.
After all, when a man they had never seen before suddenly appeared and ran away with the money, the kidnappers' first reaction would definitely not be to think that this was a "colleague", but to think that this was someone from the Qian family and be afraid of him.
So by accident, Sun Kun completely ruined their original kidnapping plan.
In the previous life, Qian Lailai was killed by Sun Kun. As for the motive of Liu Jianshe, the indirect murderer of Qian Lailai, to replace the original with the original, from the clues we have now, it is likely that Liu Jianshe did this secretly to keep Nana after his savings were drained away.
Because judging from the ransom demands of this criminal gang in the past, fifty thousand is not even enough to fill their stomachs.
So in the previous life, Sun Kun was the main culprit in Qian Lailai's kidnapping case and the only criminal who was punished by law.
But in this life, Zhou Yi changed the outcome of Sun Kun's kidnapping case, saved Qian Lailai's life, and made the criminal gang that had lost its target in the previous life formulate a new kidnapping plan.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Zhou Yi's sword was not aimed at Sun Kun, but at the group of villains hiding under the two reincarnations!
