On the way back to the car, Jiang Suchu folded his father's police uniform carefully and neatly and placed it on his lap.
She ran her fingers over the shoulders of the police uniform. The epaulettes had been removed and turned in, leaving only the fine stitches. When she was a child, every time her father hugged her, she liked to pick the silver four-pointed star flower on his epaulette with her hands.
The phone in her bag was vibrating. She took it out and curled her lower lip when she saw the caller ID.
She smiled and answered the phone: "Lu Zhinian."
Lu Zhinian's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone: "You're not back yet?"
Jiang Suchu smiled: "You're back."
Lu Zhinian: "Are you there soon? I'll go out to pick you up."
Jiang Suichu glanced out the car window and saw that he was almost at the villa area: "Well, we're almost there."
Lu Zhinian: "Then I'll come out now."
Jiang Suichu lowered his eyes and glanced at the sunny doll in his hand, then curled his lips and said, "Okay."
Lu Zhinian was in the study. When he got up to go downstairs, he saw Jiang Suichu's schoolbag on the table. There is also a peace charm from him hanging on her schoolbag.
He glanced at the peace talisman and said to the other end of the phone: "Jiang Suichu, let's remove the peace talisman together when we get back."
Jiang Suchu paused, smiled and nodded: "Okay."
She has been wearing the peace charm on her schoolbag since she was a freshman in high school. She changed several schoolbags along the way, but the peace charm has always been there.
Lu Zhinian said that his wish was written on it. Jiang Suchu only got half of it right at first, and he said he would tell her the other half after graduation.
She was already looking forward to it. What was Lu Zhinian's other wish?
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Suchu picked up the sunny doll in his hand. As the vehicle bumped, Sunny Baby's bell swayed slightly and made a crisp sound.
This sunny doll was given to her by Lu Zhinian when she left Yun City.
When she left, she cried and held Lu Zhinian's hand and said, "Niannian, please don't forget me, okay?"
At that time, Lu Zhinian put the sunny doll in her hand and said that as long as the wind chimes sounded, he was thinking of her; he said that he would wait for her to come back.
In those dark days, she chewed on her childhood memories over and over again. Relying on the good memories of the past, she tried hard not to let herself die in Muyang Town.
As we approached the villa area, the taxi stopped.
"Little girl, it seems like it's hard to get through."
Jiang Suichu glanced forward and saw that a van and a car seemed to have collided and blocked the entrance to the villa area.
There are several entrances to the villa area, but this is the one closest to the Lu family villa. Lu Zhinian said that he had already come out to pick her up, and Jiang Suchu didn't want to go around again and make him wait.
She took her things and said to the driver: "I'll get off the bus here. How much does it cost?"
The driver looked at the meter and said, "Sixteen dollars and fifty cents."
After Jiang Suichu paid the money, he showed the payment interface to the driver: "Master, the money has been paid."
Driver: "Hey, good girl. Let's go slowly."
"Yeah." Jiang Suichu opened the car door and got out of the car.
It was noon now, and the sun was shining brightly in the sky, causing heat to rise from the ground. Jiang Suichu got out of the car and walked quickly to the shade of a tree on the side of the road to send a message to Lu Zhinian.
[The gate is blocked and taxis can't get in. I may have to arrive a little later. 】
Lu Zhinian had just changed his shoes and was about to take Beibei out to pick her up when he received news from Jiang Suchu. He made a call directly.
When Jiang Suchu saw the call, he bent his lower lip to answer the call: "Hello."
Lu Zhinian walked to the garage and said into the phone: "You find a shady place and wait for me. I will pick you up on my bike."
"Oh. Okay." Jiang Suichu responded with a smile, but still walked slowly along the shade of the tree.
She doesn't like to be the one waiting in place.
Neither of them hung up the phone. Jiang Suichu listened to the sound on his other end and chatted with him.
"Has Lele gone home?" she asked.
Lu Zhinian put on his Bluetooth headphones and went out on his bicycle: "Well, you went back soon."
"Oh." Jiang Suichu nodded and just walked to the place where two cars were blocked. She glanced over there unintentionally and paused slightly.
The door of the van was open and a man was sitting inside. The man wore a shabby hat, had a cigarette in his mouth, and had sunken cheeks.
It's the man who was in the ice cream shop just now.
He also looked up, and the moment his eyes met Jiang Suichu's, he took out the cigarette from his mouth, threw it on the ground and crushed it out with his foot.
"Little girl, we meet again." He said to her with a smile, and there were some scary wrinkles at the end of his eyes.
Jiang Suchu's heartbeat stagnated for some unknown reason. Her knuckles turned white when she held the phone in her hand, and she subconsciously murmured Lu Zhinian's name.
"Lu Zhinian."
She didn't even notice that her voice was trembling slightly.
"Huh?" Lu Zhinian frowned. He also heard the man's voice just now, "What's wrong? Who is talking?"
"Wuwu...sister...sister..."
"I..." Jiang Suichu was about to speak when he suddenly heard a child's whimpering coming from the car. She paused for a moment, then looked at the dark car window behind her with wide-open pupils.
Zhou Ran! ?
The man also glanced back at the car, then got out of the car with a sneer and walked toward Jiang Suchu.
Jiang Suchu realized something, hugged his father's police uniform tightly, turned around and ran away: "Lu Zhinian, call the police!"
Before she could run a few steps, two men got out of the car in front of her and blocked her way. The thin man behind caught up with her, grabbed her hair and pulled her back: "Run? Do you think you can run away today?"
Lu Zhinian was riding a bicycle when he suddenly almost fell down: "Jiang Suichu, you——"
Before he could finish his words, the call was cut off. He looked at the hung up phone and cursed: "Fuck!"
He pedaled the bicycle hard, but his hands were shaking.
…
"Ah!" The man was so strong that Jiang Suchu felt like his hair was about to be torn off.
The man grabbed Jiang Suichu's hair, snatched the mobile phone from her hand, cut off the call, and smashed it to the ground. In an instant, the mobile phone fell into pieces. The broken screen splashed and flew towards Jiang Suchu. She subconsciously closed her eyes and tried to hide, but she still couldn't. The fragments streaked across her bloodshot cheeks and popped out instantly.
"Let me go!" She struggled hard, trying to break free from the man's shackles.
Although the man is very thin, he is very strong. He sneered, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered Jiang Suichu's mouth and nose. He leaned against Jiang Suichu's ear and said with a terrifying smile in his voice: "Little girl, let's play a game. When we're done, I'll let you go."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Slowly, her consciousness completely blurred, and the police uniform and Qingtian doll in her hands fell to the ground.
The man dragged Jiang Suichu into the van and threw him directly in the back. The seats in the back of the van were folded down, and Zhou Ran was huddled in the corner with his feet tied.
When he saw Jiang Suichu being thrown in, he cried and crawled over, took Jiang Suichu's hand and shook it vigorously: "Sister, wuwu...sister, wake up...sister."
But Jiang Suchu had lost consciousness and could not respond to him at all.
The two men who got out of the car returned to the car, and when they missed the van, the rear window of the car was lowered.
Sitting in the back seat of the car was a middle-aged man with a terrifying scar across his left cheek. He was holding a bag of white powder in his hand and threw it to the thin man from the car window.
"It's done, that's enough."
The thin man took the package, his eyes were shining, he nodded and bowed and said: "Thank you, Brother Long. Thank you, Brother Long. I will definitely take care of it, don't worry."
The man known as Brother Long slightly curled his lower lip, and there was a sinister light in his three-white eyes. He raised his hand and made a slight gesture with his two fingers together. The driver immediately closed the window and started the car to leave.
When Lu Zhinian rushed to the entrance of the villa area, he happened to see Bread Mian turn around and leave. Jiang Suichu's things were scattered on the ground not far away, including a police uniform, a broken cell phone, and a Sunny doll that fell to pieces and fell to the ground.
The bicycle wheel made a screeching sound and drew a long mark on the ground. Lu Zhinian felt that the blood in his body was flowing backwards, and his mind went blank for a moment.
But he reacted quickly, took out his cell phone and called Pei Tian directly: "Uncle Pei, Jiang Suchu was kidnapped."
His voice was trembling.
"What!" Pei Tian's voice on the other end of the phone was high-pitched. He had just received an alarm call from Li Liyun, saying that her son had been kidnapped. The police were preparing to dispatch, but unexpectedly they received a call from Lu Zhinian saying that Jiang Suichu had also been kidnapped.
Lu Zhinian rode his bicycle and kept chasing the van: "Uncle Pei, the license plate number of the person who kidnapped Jiang Suichu is 8e65a3."
Pei Tian: "Okay. Ah Nian, don't chase me. Leave it to us. Do you hear..."
He can now basically conclude that the drug dealer back then came out to take revenge. Since they would kidnap Jiang Suchu, they might kidnap Lu Zhinian and Pei Shuo.
Lu Zhinian didn't listen, just pulled out the Bluetooth headset and threw it to the roadside. The speed difference between the bicycle and the van was too big, and Lu Zhinian was thrown far away after a while.
Fortunately, there are several traffic lights on this stretch of road. When I saw the van being stopped by a red light at the intersection ahead. Lu Zhinian didn't hesitate at all. He threw away his bicycle and immediately stopped a taxi on the side of the road and got in: "Master, follow the van in front."
The driver looked back at him. The young man's face turned pale, his chest was tense and he was sweating profusely. He kept staring at the van in front of him.
"This is……"
Before the driver could say anything, the light turned green.
Lu Zhinian frowned, and when he saw the van starting from a distance, he immediately said to the driver: "Master, hurry up! Follow."
After saying that, he took out his mobile phone, scanned the code and paid 1,000 yuan first.
"Oh...Okay...Okay." Seeing this, the driver didn't care so much and stepped on the accelerator to follow.
…..
In the van, Zhou Ran kept crying: "Sister...sister...wuwuwu..."
The man in front of him drove the car and turned around and cursed: "Stop fucking crying. If you cry again, I will throw you out."
The anesthetic gradually wore off, and Jiang Suichu vaguely heard Zhou Ran's cry. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Zhou Ran lying next to her, crying.
Jiang Suichu felt top-heavy after inhaling the anesthetic. The car was going very fast, and her head hurt. She closed her eyes and shook her head hard to wake herself up.
She moved and found that her hands and feet were tied with ropes, making it difficult to move.
"Zhou...Zhou Ran..." She sat up weakly and leaned against the wall of the carriage.
Zhou Ran saw Jiang Suichu waking up and hugged her while crying: "Ooooooo...sister, I'm so scared."
Jiang Suichu was stunned for a moment, then gently comforted him: "Don't be afraid."
She endured the nausea that kept rising in her stomach and observed her surroundings. There was only the thin man in the car. The two men in the car were not there, but it was obvious that they were in the same group.
Jiang Suchu glanced at Zhou Ran and asked him in a low voice: "Xiaoran, where is your mother?"
Zhou Ran sobbed and said, "I don't know, my mother was knocked unconscious by this bad guy. I don't know how my mother is doing now."
As he spoke he began to cry again.
After Jiang Suchu left just now, Li Liyun also left with Zhou Ran not long after. When the two went to the parking lot to pick up the car, the man knocked Li Liyun unconscious with a stick and then tied Zhou Ran into the car.
Jiang Suchu frowned and looked ahead carefully.
This man's appearance in the ice cream shop today was definitely not an accident, he had planned it. Jiang Suichu thought of the black car just now, and she had a vague premonition.
The people in the car are the masterminds.
The van was speeding all the way, and if Lu Zhinian hadn't been keeping a close eye on it, he would have almost lost it several times. Following all the way to the old town, the van suddenly turned right into an old community at an intersection where it was supposed to turn left.
The driver stepped on the brake and looked back at Lu Zhinian: "You can't turn right here."
Lu Zhinian frowned and said with scarlet eyes: "Huai! I'll be responsible for anything, okay?"
The driver was startled by his appearance, and he stammered: "No... no, handsome guy. This is a demolition area, and the road is closed to prevent entry."
Seeing the van drive into the community, Lu Zhinian couldn't help clenching his fists. He gritted his teeth and got out of the car and ran towards the community. At this time, sirens sounded in the distance. Lu Zhinian looked back and saw several police cars on the other side of the road.
Pei Tian should have arrived.
But he didn't care so much and chased towards the alley where the van disappeared.
"Jiang Suichu, don't let anything happen. Don't!" He said silently in his heart while running.
The vehicle drove to nowhere. Through the dark glass, Jiang Suchu could only see the vehicle shuttling in the dilapidated alley.
The alley was empty, with almost no people around.
Soon, the van stopped in front of an abandoned building. The man got out of the car, walked around the front of the car, walked to the back, and opened the van door.
Zhou Ran shrank behind Jiang Suichu in fear, holding her clothes tightly with his little hands: "Sister."
Jiang Suchu was also a little scared. She stared at the man closely: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"I said, let's play a game." The man smiled conspiratorially and reached out to pull her.
Jiang Suichu's hands were tied behind her back. When the man reached out, she fell backwards, raised her tied feet and kicked him directly.
There was still anesthetic in her body, so even though she tried her best, this kick had no strength. It just happened to kick the needle on the back of the man's hand, and the man let out a cry of pain, and his sunken eyes suddenly became fierce.
"Fuck you!" The man looked at the footprints on the back of his hand and slapped Jiang Suichu in the face.
Jiang Suchu was hit to the side of his head, and there were a few red fingerprints on his fair cheeks. She even had tinnitus for a moment and couldn't hear anything.
When Zhou Ran saw Jiang Suchu being beaten, he knelt and crawled over to him, crying and wanting to hit the man: "Ugh... don't hit my sister, you bad guy! You bad guy!"
"You don't overestimate your capabilities." The man sneered and grabbed Zhou Ran's collar. Then he grabbed Jiang Suchu's feet and lifted her directly onto his shoulders.
Jiang Suchu felt dizzy and felt like the world was spinning.
The man carried Jiang Suichu on his shoulders and Zhou Ran with one hand as he walked into the abandoned building. This area is a demolition area. The main body of the building has been almost demolished, leaving only an empty frame.
When they got to the fifth floor, the man threw the two of them to the ground.
"Ah...hiss..." Jiang Suchu was thrown directly from his shoulder, and his head hit the concrete floor.
"Sister, wuwu..." Zhou Ran crawled over and helped Jiang Suchu up with all his strength.
When he saw the blood on Jiang Suichu's forehead, he was frightened and burst into tears, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..Sister...Sister, are you okay..."
Jiang Suichu sat up from the ground with Zhou Ran's strength. Seeing the tears on his face, Jiang Suichu felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Because of her childhood experiences, she is very sensitive to emotions. She can easily feel if others are treating her well or if they are being hypocritical.
It is true that Zhou Ran is careful to please herself, and it is also true that she treats her as a sister.
In fact, she could feel it.
But because of Li Liyun, she has always rejected Zhou Ran.
She pursed her lower lip and gently pressed her forehead against his head: "Xiaoran, don't cry, sister is fine."
Zhou Ran sobbed and carefully wiped away the blood on her eyelids with her little hands: "But...sister, you are bleeding, a lot...a lot of blood...it must be very painful..."
Jiang Suichu closed his eyes and let him wipe it: "Sister, it doesn't hurt, please stop crying."
How can a child stop crying if he says he doesn't want to, let alone in this situation. Zhou Ran couldn't stop crying and kept shaking while holding Jiang Suchu.
The man was a little irritated by Zhou Ran's crying. He kicked away a broken chair and walked over: "Tsk! You're crying!"
Zhou Ran was so frightened that his whole body trembled and he cried even harder: "Woooooooo..."
Jiang Suichu stood sideways in front of Zhou Ran, frowning and glaring at him: "What are you doing?"
The man glanced at her and reached over her to carry Zhou Ran over: "If you cry again, I will throw you out of here."
As he said that, he carried Zhou Ran and started to walk outside.
There are no guardrails left in this building, and there are no safety facilities around it. Jiang Suichu saw him dragging Zhou Ran towards the building and rushed towards him in horror: "No!"
It happened that the man's phone rang at this time, and he stopped and took out his phone to take a look.
"You're lucky." The man sneered, pulled a piece of tape and put it directly on Zhou Ran's mouth. Then he threw Zhou Ran next to Jiang Suichu like a sandbag.
"Xiao Ran." Jiang Suchu's hands were tied up and he could only touch him with his shoulder.
Zhou Ran's mouth was sealed and he couldn't cry. His big eyes shed tears silently. He shrank next to Jiang Suchu, his little hands tightly grasping the hem of her clothes, and his body couldn't stop trembling.
"It's okay." Jiang Suchu lowered his head and rubbed his head to comfort him, "It'll be okay, Xiaoran. The police uncle will come to save us."
The man walked aside and answered the phone: "Brother Long, I'm already here."
"Hey, okay."
"Okay, okay."
Jiang Suchu looked at him. The person he was talking to should be the person in the black car just now. She couldn't help but look around. Most of the buildings in this area had been demolished. The buildings on the opposite side were also the same as here, with only empty frames left.
Soon, the man hung up the phone.
He took out a packet of white powdery stuff from his pocket and poured it directly into his hand. Then he took out a piece of paper and rolled it into a straw, squinted into his nostrils and sucked in all the powder.
Jiang Suchu opened his eyes wide. This man was... taking drugs! ?
It seems that she was right, it was the drug dealer back then who was seeking revenge.
The man's appearance when he takes drugs is terrifying. His squinting expression changes from ferocious to ecstatic. Jiang Suchu couldn't help but tremble when he saw him like that.
Drug dealers are extremely vicious people, and she doesn't know if she and Zhou Ran can walk out safely today.
