Miss Lei was kidnapped on the eighth day.
night.
…
"Uh! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!!"
"Take him back, the officer said, we can't let him die happily, he has to be tortured for seven days and seven nights, and he will suffer all the tortures in the world!"
A simple test, and from Chen Xiaoqi's reaction, Di Jin knew he had found the right person.
A normal innocent person who is attacked inexplicably at home will definitely feel confused, confused, and helpless.
But Chen Xiaoqi only had fear.
Especially after hearing that Lei Yuanwai was looking for him, he was trembling all over, with a strong sense of fear that things would be exposed.
So Di Jin said this deliberately to Di Xiangling who walked in.
When he heard that he was about to be tortured, Chen Xiaoqi's fat body immediately softened. He was as quiet as a dead fish for a while, then he started jumping around again as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Then a soft whip was wrapped around his neck. It didn't show how hard it was. It was just a slight shake. All the strength in his body was scattered again. Di Xiangling's cold voice came over: "What are your last words?"
"Don't kill... don't kill me!" A dry and hoarse voice sounded. Chen Xiaoqi was startled by his own voice, and tears welled up in his eyes. He repeatedly chanted: "Heroes, spare their lives... Heroes, spare their lives..."
Di Jin said calmly: "It is not impossible to survive. You are lucky. You are the first one in your group to be caught, and you still have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds..."
Di Xiangling scolded: "How many thieves are there who kidnapped Miss Lei? Where are they now? Tell me!"
Chen Xiaoqi opened his mouth and hesitated.
Di Jin clicked his tongue in surprise: "Don't tell me? That's okay! They have already received the ransom money. Lei Yuanwai gave a lot, which is enough to enjoy themselves for a long time. I wonder if the accomplices you saved with your life will come when you celebrate the festival every year." I will burn incense for you and worship you?”
Chen Xiaoqi's face twisted.
He fell into trouble, was discovered by Lei Hu's men, and was tortured by the enemy. He gritted his teeth and refused to confess. He saved his brother, but they were able to spend the night and drink with the ransom...
Not willing to give in! Not willing to give in!
The two siblings cooperated tacitly, and when they found that the man was slightly loose, Di Xiangling immediately tightened the soft whip.
"Uh! Uh-huh!!"
Chen Xiaoqi's eyes began to become bloodshot, and his eyeballs seemed to bulge out. However, his limbs were too weak to put up any resistance.
There is no need to use torture to deal with such a gangster. When Di Xiangling let go, his few remaining psychological defenses collapsed completely, and he hissed: "Four people! There are four of us in total!"
"so little?"
Di Jin was a little surprised at first, and then nodded slightly: "It is precisely because there are few people that blackmail can be successful time and time again. Otherwise, if there are many people and mixed opinions, the secret would have been leaked long ago..."
"The only thing that cuts off the birth date is that too many people are causing trouble!" Di Xiangling combined the story with reality and nodded thoughtfully.
Di Jin then asked: "Tell me, who is the mastermind?"
Chen Xiaoqi said: "I don't know his real name. I only know that he calls himself Iron Arhat. Hostages are often kidnapped into temples, just...in Longquan Temple in the north of the city..."
Di Xiangling suddenly realized: "No wonder with the power of Thunder Tiger, so many people were dispersed, causing chaos both inside and outside, but no trace of my daughter was found. She is in the temple!"
This is indeed unexpected. After all, how could ordinary people think that a compassionate monk in Buddhism would actually be connected with a kidnapper...
But in fact, Buddhism has always been good at doing business. For example, the Daxiangguo Temple in Bianjing is a famous business district.
And anything related to business will not be pure.
After locking the location of Longquan Temple, Di Jin continued to ask: "Where are the remaining accomplices?"
Chen Xiaoqi started pouring beans into the bamboo tube.
In the kidnapping gang, Iron Arhat is responsible for commanding, formulating plans, and providing the location where the hostages will be kidnapped, which is the wing of Longquan Temple. The monks do not know whether they were bribed or deceived, but they will not go near there anyway.
Chen Xiaoqi is responsible for collecting the specific movements of big families. He used to perform fighting games in these families and often hang out with the servants and maids, so that he can cooperate inside and outside to steal property. Even after being discovered, he still maintains contact and finds out the secrets of some families.
There are two others, one named Xuan Niang, who is good at the art of disguise. She is responsible for approaching the target and carrying out the kidnapping.
One is called Lame Li, who is lame in one leg, but has excellent light-body skills and can transport people without being noticed.
In addition to the unknown identity of Tie Luohan, Chen Xiaoqi, Xuan Niang and Lame Li are all natives of Bingzhou, have their own life circles, and have close contacts with people in the world, and have been drawn in one after another.
At this point, Di Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
broken!
A case of a young lady who had been missing for a long time and a series of kidnappings of children of wealthy families was actually solved!
In just two days!
Di Jin frowned and continued to ask: "According to this division of labor, how many families have you kidnapped?"
Chen Xiaoqi counted in a low voice: "The young man from the Qiao family, the young lady from the Wei family, the young man from the Sun family, the young man from the Liu family, the young man from the Wang family... The Lei family is the sixth family!"
Di Jin said: "In other words, after you kidnapped the Wang family's young man, six months later, they ran out of money and targeted the Lei family's wife?"
Chen Xiaoqi trembled, and tears flowed out again: "The three of us have persuaded Lei Hu... Lei Hu is a capable person, not comparable to those businessmen, but Brother Luohan just doesn't listen and insists on kidnapping Fei. It needs to be tied up, it’s all over now!”
Di Jin waited for him to finish crying before asking: "Is the ransom money this time particularly high? How did you divide it specifically?"
Chen Xiaoqi wowed and scored three times: "No! In the past, we all got it and divided it equally. Brother Luohan never asked for more, and everyone admired him the most, but this time the ransom money was not divided at all. Luohan My brother just asked me to wait at home, Lei Hu’s men are searching hard, don’t go out... It’s not a good idea to kidnap someone, but I’m going to mess with you, wow..."
Di Jin waited impatiently, interrupted his crying and asked for details: "How many times have you stepped on the lotus shed?"
Chen Xiaoqi sobbed: "I only went there twice and didn't see anything, so they started taking action over there..."
When Di Xiangling heard this, he was already convinced: "It seems that there is a traitor under Lei Huhu. This is obviously the work of an insider."
"Should I be guilty..."
Di Jin murmured and suddenly asked: "Where is Miss Lei's body buried?"
Chen Xiaoqi was startled: "The corpse... no! There is no corpse! She is not dead!"
Di Jin said coldly: "At this point, it's useless even if you argue, you should let Lei Yuan find his beloved daughter and bury her properly!"
Chen Xiaoqi was horrified: "He's not dead! He's really not dead! We never kill people. Brother Luohan said that only by putting those rich young men and young wives back will they not be reported to the police. I We are just asking for money, why would we risk our lives?"
After asking a few more times, except for some insignificant details, he found that Chen Xiaoqi could not answer any more. Di Jin waved his hand and knocked him out with a palm strike.
Di Xiangling saw it: "Brother Six, do you still have any doubts?"
"good!"
Di Jin nodded: "Such a kidnapping gang may have some ability, but as Chen Xiaoqi said, they were not caught before because they were able to release the hostages. Those wealthy households did not want to say anything. But this time Miss Lei didn't return, and Lei Hu was furious. As a local snake, he had many Jianghu people under his command. He searched for seven or eight days, but there was no clue about the four kidnappers... Sister, what do you think? "
Di Xiangling pondered: "Thunder Tiger lost his beloved daughter, cares about him and leads to chaos, and there are traitors under his command, deliberately misleading?"
"It can indeed be explained this way, but I always feel that something is not right about this matter, and there seems to be something fishy behind it..."
Di Jin was also a little unsure of his estimation, thinking that he might be too suspicious, and that all trees and plants are enemies?
But if there is really an inside story, the three thousand guan reward will have variables...
At this moment, Di Xiangling made a gesture of silence, swayed, and suddenly came to the courtyard.
Di Jin's expression tightened, and he listened carefully and found that someone seemed to be passing by outside the courtyard.
Fortunately, the two people had no intention of being admitted to the hospital for examination. They just walked by numbly, without concealing their footsteps, and a strong voice of complaint floated in: "The county lieutenant has been torturing us all night long, when will it end? yawn……"
Di Xiangling shook his head disdainfully, while Di Jin's eyes lit up: "Three thousand guan is safe now!"
…
The Lei family mansion.
The black tile roof, vermilion pillars, and brick platform, if coupled with the towering gatehouse, would be the standard style of the Pre-Tang Dynasty, and it would be the residence of a powerful family.
This is the only merchant's family in Bingzhou that is so illustrious.
But that night, in the central hall brightly lit by candles, Lei Biao, who had a big face and a dignified appearance, sat with a golden sword, frowning, looking at the group of cronies in front of him.
He has hundreds of servants under his command. Among them, the most capable ones are named Lei, from Lei Da to Lei Jiu. They are provided with the best treatment. They are all brave, strong and masculine, even when facing the most fierce party members. The warriors were not left behind at all.
But this group of usually most proud generals were scolded by Lei Hu: "It's been eight days! It's been eight days! No one can be found. Turn Yangqu over, turn over the entire Bingzhou, I don’t believe it can disappear!”
The faces of all the men turned red, with shame on their brows. They gritted their teeth and said, "Yes!"
At this moment, with the sound of hurried footsteps, Mr. Mo walked in and whispered in front of him: "The thief who kidnapped the young lady has been caught!"
Lei Biao stood up suddenly: "Who?"
Mo Laoyan was concise and concise: "The one who was captured was Chen Xiaoqi, a sumo wrestler. The ones who captured him were Di Liulang and Di Shiyi Niang, who were descendants of the Di family, a famous family in the former Tang Dynasty. The Di family has now declined, but Di Shiyi My mother is quite popular in Bingzhou. I once had some affection for her, so I asked her to take action. I didn’t expect that in just two days, I really found someone..."
"I've heard of Di Shiniang's name. This woman is amazing!" Lei Biao said slowly: "Go and tell her that my Lei family owes her a favor now. Hand over Chen Xiaoqi quickly. After I interrogate him, I will go and save him personally!”
Mr. Mo sighed: "I'm afraid it won't work. Pan County Lieutenant was patrolling the night with the government officials, and they happened to bump into each other. The Di family siblings didn't give way, and now the County Lieutenant has also come with them!"
