Chapter 38 Imprisonment (2)



Luo Pingjiang also found two things in the drawer.

One is the packaging box of a new mobile phone, which is empty inside. The market price of the phone is about 3,000 yuan. There was also a cheap old model mobile phone next to it, but the SIM card had been removed.

The other was a string of tags cut from clothes, neatly arranged and placed next to the phone box.

Luo Pingjiang had the impression that it was a famous light luxury women's clothing brand with stores in the best shopping malls in the city. But Luo Pingjiang did not find any clothes of this brand in his closet.

Luo Pingjiang took pictures of both things, and when he looked up, his expression became more and more solemn.

It is impossible that Zeng Xi went to Guangdong, so she went to a mountain in the suburbs. Ruan Qingqing also went to the mountain to find her. Before Ruan Qingqing set off, Chen Muyun came to find her, probably to pursue her relentlessly.

And now, Zeng Xi, Ruan Qingqing and Chen Muyun have all lost contact.

Luo Pingjiang suddenly took out his mobile phone and searched "missing deaf-mute girl" on the Internet. He vaguely remembered seeing similar news last month.

Soon, he found the news that he remembered: "A beautiful deaf-mute girl mysteriously disappeared."——

The crime scene was in another county under the jurisdiction of this city, only a few dozen kilometers away.

A 19-year-old deaf-mute girl, who looks pretty and well-behaved in the photo;

The girl suddenly ran away from home and sent a text message to her parents, saying that she was going out to work with her friends and start a new life, and asked her parents not to look for her;

The person has not been found yet, calling the police is of no avail, and there is no news of the girl;

Her parents only knew that she had recently made a new friend and was going out more often. They thought that the friend was a colleague from her workplace at the time, but they had no idea who that person was.

The parents loved their deaf-mute daughter very much. Two months had passed, and they had been searching for her everywhere, offering a reward for information leading to her missing person...

Luo Pingjiang put down his phone, called the two children back to the door, and asked only one question: What is the name of the mountain that Zeng Xi often goes to?

——

Ruan Qingqing opened her eyes, her head was dizzy and there was a dazzling white light in front of her eyes.

It took her a while to focus her vision. I wanted to raise my hand, but found that my wrist was so painful that I couldn't move.

She found herself lying on a concrete floor with her hands and feet tied with ropes.

In front of me is a tall old roof and a low-hanging incandescent lamp. I can smell the rusty moisture and the unique scent of grass and trees in the wild.

This is a house of more than 100 square meters, long and narrow in shape, with a large open space, about two stories high, and empty.

Not far from her, there was an old sofa and a wooden table. The windows on the walls on both sides are the wooden square window style from the 1980s and 1990s, and are very old.

There are iron bars outside each window. Outside the window, you can see the red and yellow mottled rock walls that have been excavated, and a row of broken mechanical equipment.

It looks like this is an abandoned small factory.

However, what shocked Ruan Qingqing even more was the cubic iron cage in front of her that was three or four meters high!

It was dim outside and there was no other light source in the room except for the round, bright white lamp hanging directly above the iron cage, making that space look like a stage shrouded in dazzling light.

Each iron railing was as thick as Ruan Qingqing's thumb. Some were covered in rust, while others revealed a section of their bright white texture. There are welding marks on both ends of each railing, which are rough but neat.

The world inside the iron cage is completely different from this abandoned factory!

The cages were covered with creamy white wooden floors, which had been wiped clean and mirror-smooth, spotless.

There is also a single princess bed inside, with a pink bed and pink sheets with lace everywhere. In addition, there is a miniature pink toilet and a pink and white princess wardrobe.

A girl in a white puffy princess dress was lying motionless on the bed with her back to Ruan Qingqing.

Two pink satin belts tied a large bow on her back. She also wore white stockings and transparent pink crystal shoes.

This made her look like a carefully dressed up mannequin.

It's like a gift from someone to himself.

Ruan Qingqing's scalp was about to explode when she saw this. She struggled to crawl on the ground, using the strength of her elbows and waist and abdomen to finally sit up. There was also tape on her mouth, so she could only make "wuwuwu" sounds.

The girl heard nothing and lay there lifeless.

Ruan Qingqing made a concerted effort and moved little by little, finally reaching the edge of the cage and pushing hard with her shoulder.

The girl felt the vibration of the cage and looked back in surprise.

The two of them stared at each other, both stunned.

The girl rushed over like crazy, stretched out her hands from the cage and grabbed Ruan Qingqing's shoulders. Ruan Qingqing whined a few times, and Zeng Xi tore off the tape on her mouth. Ruan Qingqing gasped for breath, and Zeng Xi was shocked and hurt.

Ruan Qingqing: "What's going on?"

Zeng Xi was about to use sign language when he looked behind Ruan Qingqing and his expression changed. Ruan Qingqing also heard the door open behind her and felt her hair stand on end.

Zeng Xi quickly retracted his hands into the cage as if he had seen an evil ghost, and crawled back to the bed. He hugged his knees, lowered his head, and trembled all over.

Ruan Qingqing turned around and saw the man in black clothes and black pants, who seemed to be stained with the chill of the mountains, walking in from the door.

He didn't even look at Ruan Qingqing on the ground, but stared at the girl in the cage, his eyes showing joy, desire and fascination.

The man walked past Ruan Qingqing as if she was just a piece of insignificant garbage.

Ruan Qingqing's whole body was tense. The scene of the man chasing her fiercely on the hilltop still seemed like a nightmare to her now.

The man held the iron railing with one hand and looked down at Zeng Xi, who was shaking even more violently.

The man said softly, "What are you afraid of? Come here and kneel in front of me, just like you did yesterday."

Zeng Xi looked up, her eyes were red and her face was full of tears. She glanced at Ruan Qingqing with a look of despair and helplessness.

There was a loud "boom" in Ruan Qingqing's head. She knew that this man was a horrible beast and that if she angered him, terrible things would happen, but she could never bear to watch Zeng Xi, an underage child, being humiliated.

In the empty and dilapidated house, Ruan Qingqing's thin voice rang out: "Are you Zeng Xi's new friend during this period?"

The man turned around and raised his eyelids, as if he had just seen her: "What did Xixi say about me?"

Ruan Qingqing asked this question while suppressing her fear, but the man's answer made her heart move slightly.

She replied: "She said...you are a graduate student from a prestigious university, very smart, very outstanding, and a very good person."

The man snorted lightly, his expression cold: "Superficial."

Ruan Qingqing immediately understood that he was indeed not a graduate student. Only Zeng Xi, who is ignorant of the world, would be unable to tell the difference.

"She also said that you were very sincere and kind to her, and that you always had a lot to talk about."

This time the man said nothing.
