This is indeed a very ordinary grocery store, but the area is really not small, with two connected stores about more than 70 meters. There are all kinds of goods inside.
It is said that when Cao Shihong just got off the car, there was a teahouse diagonally opposite, about sixty or seventy meters away in a straight line. On the second floor of the teahouse, by the window, Fei Murong recognized Zhao Hong at a glance. The license plate number mentioned was consistent with what Zhao Hong had conveyed to him before Chao Shihong got off the car. In addition, the other party was carrying two large rattan boxes. Naturally, it was his employer in this incident, Cao Shihong.
Fei Murong still knew in his heart that he was only one person and it was unclear how many kidnappers there were. But all he had to do was keep an eye on the two large rattan boxes. If the kidnappers really took the ransom, he didn't think the kidnappers could immediately replace the boxes containing the money.
That would waste too much time, so if a stranger comes out carrying these two boxes, he must be a kidnapper. At that time, just follow him quietly and find an opportunity to call Cao's house to listen to the news at any time.
Once the hostages are released, he can take action directly, as long as he snatches back the box. And you can also let the back-up people arranged by the Cao family support you as quickly as possible. Although there is still a certain risk, Fei Murong believes that this risk is something he can bear.
In addition, there is another possibility that the kidnappers did not release the hostages immediately. They waited until the money was transferred to a safe place before releasing the hostages. Then I can only follow. Maybe the other party's lair is not in the city. By then, in the wilderness, he would have no way to call the Cao family. However, he can seize the time to give a final notice before leaving the city. At least he can let the other party know in which direction he is leaving the city.
Fei Murong had already planned. If this situation really happened, he would follow the kidnappers and find the other party's lair outside the city. Don't rush to take action. Identify the number of people on the other side and then find a good opportunity to take action. That's the best policy. As long as he takes action and relies on his quick grab, he will instantly kill all the kidnappers before they can react. In this way, his own means and achievements are demonstrated. Secondly, a sneak attack will minimize your risk.
In short, after Fei Murong made up his mind, he concentrated his attention and watched Cao Shihong walk into the grocery store.
Cao Shihong almost came at the right time. After entering the grocery store, he struggled to carry the box around and saw no one except a store clerk and a store owner inside.
The store clerk was quite enthusiastic and wanted to help me when he saw that he was struggling to carry his things. After Cao Shihong politely refused, he asked the other party to get him a pack of high-end cigarettes.
At this moment, the public phone in the store rang. Cao Shihong was still sensitive to everything now and immediately turned his head to look, but he didn't care. I just wonder why the kidnappers haven't come to collect the ransom.
I heard the store owner answer the phone and say a few words. He looked at Cao Shihong with some surprise. After seeing him carrying two big boxes, he said, "May I ask if it's Mr. Cao Shihong?"
Cao Shihong was also startled, then nodded and said, "Yes."
"Oh." The store owner pointed the phone to the counter and said, "The phone is for you." After saying that, he turned around and started stacking the goods again. Fangzheng called the other party, and he didn't pay for the phone call.
Cao Shihong was suspicious, walked up to him with the box in hand, picked up the phone and said, "Hey, who's looking for me?"
A familiar dull voice sounded on the other end of the phone, saying: "Before one twenty, get to Caidie Western Restaurant in Shuangdieba, South District."
"Ah?" Cao Shi said: "What do you mean..."
The dull voice said: "Come on time." After that, he hung up the phone without explaining at all.
The sweat on Cao Shihong's head started to drop, and he already vaguely knew in his heart that these kidnappers were more powerful than imagined. I looked at the time and saw it was just past one o'clock. The distance to Shuangdie Dam is not too close, so I need to hurry up. What if I don't arrive before the stipulated time of 1:20, will the other party be disadvantageous to my children?
But Cao Shihong is worthy of being a rich man. Although he has never encountered such a thing, he has experienced a lot of storms. He quickly calmed down and thought of a way. He took out the money, threw it on the table, and said, "I'm going to make a call." Then he picked up the phone again and called his home.
As soon as the call was connected and Cao Chunliang's voice came through, Cao Shihong immediately said: "The other party didn't come, he just called me and asked me to arrive at Shuangdieba Caidie Western Restaurant before 1:20. "After that, he didn't dare to delay, hung up the phone, carried two rattan boxes, and walked out.
When he walked out of the grocery store, Cao Shihong made his steps a little slower than in the store, as if he was struggling to carry the box. The purpose of his doing this was to show off his wits. He was afraid that there were kidnappers nearby and saw that he was coming out slowly. It would be bad if he thought that he had called home just now - look at it! Carrying two heavy boxes, I walked out slowly. But he didn't do anything else.
He put the two boxes firmly into the car again, got in immediately, started the car and headed towards the Shuangdie Dam. He drove quite fast along the way. Because if you go slow, you might not arrive on time.
Sure enough, when he parked the car at Cai Die Western Restaurant, it was already around 1:18. He didn't dare to neglect, hesitated in his heart, and decided to take the box with him again. After getting out of the car, I carried two boxes and walked hard inside again. When the waiter inside saw it, he immediately came over and said, "Is this Mr. Cao Shihong?"
Cao Shihong frowned and nodded, "Do you know me?"
"Oh." The waiter said, "There was a gentleman named Fei who made a reservation for you in advance and ordered the meal. He said you would come over."
"Have you ordered a meal?" Cao Shihong looked the waiter up and down, and said tentatively: "I brought all the thirty you asked for." However, after saying this, the waiter looked puzzled and it really didn't look like he was pretending. of. Said: "Mr. Cao, what are you talking about thirty? Let me help you move your belongings in first."
Cao Shihong felt relieved, put down the box and said, "Okay, didn't Mr. Fei reserve a seat for me and order a meal? Take me there."
