"Oh, you mean Peng Wan?" The duty manager of the amusement park area rubbed his hands and smiled, "No no, she is not an employee here, but she has worked with us for more than a month, so she..."

Wu Yu's first reaction was: "Part-time job?"

"No, her company is our supplier, so their department is responsible for the installation and maintenance of some amusement equipment." The manager stood at the office window and pointed to the rushing rapids in the distance through the glass window: "Look For example, this slide, the merry-go-round, the ghost in the haunted house, and the rows of fixed seats on the big pendulum... Of course, our supplier is not only them, but recently their company is responsible for updating a batch of equipment, so Peng Wan and the others every day They all have to come to work in our park. As for the excellent employees, we have not reviewed them internally at all, they are all for tourists to see. She works with the people in the area of the haunted house jumping machine every day, and they have a good relationship, and everyone goes to the wall together. "

"..." Wu Yu was at a loss for words: "Your KPIs are too casual, aren't you?"

"Hey, what you said, we are a business unit after all!" The manager rubbed his hands and smiled: "If you pay more attention to the notice board in our park, you will find out that all our staff are excellent employees, so I will take a picture of them all. Putting it there for tourists to see, it seems that our park is very civilized!"

Wu Yu and Bu Chonghua looked at each other, and neither of them knew what to say.

No wonder the Public Security Bureau has investigated the case until now, but did not know that the hostages were working in this amusement park. After a long time, it was a business connection!

—Then why did the kidnapper choose to hand over the hostages here, because Peng Wan, or did the kidnapper himself have some connection with this playground that the police did not find

"How is Peng Wan's personality, popularity, and behavior?" Bu Chonghua asked with a frown.

"I don't usually have much contact with her, but I heard that she is good, otherwise how could we work together for so long." The manager's tone was very positive, and after thinking about it, he said, "Hard-working, practical and reliable, the inspector in charge of their part I haven't asked any questions; I'm well-liked, friendly and kind, I've never had a red-face with other colleagues; I'm going in and out every day, spending money, making a meal, and I haven't heard of any weird and superb things, just from my usual impressions. Ordinary female employee... Hey, I can't remember too much for a while, is there anything specific you want to know?"

Wu Yu asked, "What about daily expenses?"

"Expenses are also normal. You ride an electric bike to and from get off work and carry a small cloth bag. Everyone is an ordinary person with a family."

"Isn't there a sudden abundance of money recently?"

"Abundant? Abundance is not enough." The manager Zhang Er was puzzled and looked back and forth at the two detectives in front of him, finally unable to restrain his surging curiosity: "So you two came to ask her what, Peng Wan is Did something happen?"

Wu Yu said: "No, mainly in terms of money..."

"What? Money?" The manager was startled, "Did I fail to recognize that her electric car is a Rolls-Royce, and the small cloth bag is Hermes?!"

Wu Yu: "..."

manager:"… "

The middle-aged male manager in his 40s looked at Wu Yu, his face full of excitement and joy that something had finally happened in his ordinary life. If this was a cartoon, he was already flashing girlishly at this moment. Star eyes.

Wu Yu sighed and said politely, "No, no, you look like Hermes."

The manager was stunned for a moment, but was embarrassed by the sudden compliment: "Where, if I were Hermes, you must be Chanel!"

"Amusement park managers and employees said that she has not behaved abnormally recently, and her own colleagues in the company have also called. In terms of money, words, behavior, and behavior patterns, she is an ordinary 34-year-old white-collar woman. Anything worthy of attention." After an hour, the two finally finished the cross-examination and walked out of the amusement park, and Bu Chonghua turned his head: "What do you think... Wu Yu?"

"Well?"

Bu Chonghua followed Wu Yu's gaze and saw the colorful cotton candy lined up at the entrance of the amusement park.

"…do you eat, Chanel?"

Wu Yu swallowed his saliva: "Forget it, even if you have to control your calories to keep your body in shape, I'm even more..."

Bu Chonghua snorted and squeezed straight into the crowd. After a while, he held up a big pink cloud and squeezed it out, and handed it to him in Wu Yu's hypocritical and weak refusal, "It's okay, eat it, so what if you can't keep it up? Can you leave?"

Wu Yu immediately put down his psychological burden and licked the marshmallow.

The two drove the G63 back to the Nancheng Branch. Wu Yu was in the passenger seat with a marshmallow in hand, and with the other hand, he turned over the docking records between Peng Wan and the equipment on the amusement park side. Putting the brakes down: "Peng Wan's work in the past two months, the general overview is to place orders from the company's internal factories or external suppliers on a regular basis, and then transport them to the water amusement park for equipment installation and debugging. The main projects are haunted houses and indoor elevators. , The ghost building jumping machine. This job has a certain technical content, so it is not easy to find someone to replace her, and her job is relatively stable. "

Wu Yu didn't say a word. After a long while, he closed the thick record and sighed silently.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking of Peng Wan."

When the green light came on, Bu Chonghua tilted his head and glanced at him when he stepped on the accelerator: "What do you miss her?"

Wu Yu wanted to touch a cigarette on a conditioned reflex, but was reluctant to bear the marshmallow stick, so he gave up the cigarette just as Bu Chonghua had expected, biting his teeth on the tip of the stick, and said, "I was thinking about how I would live my life if I were her. Go on. My father is not a thing, my mother is gone, my husband cheated, my mother-in-law is difficult to deal with, my father-in-law is addicted to money; after being kidnapped, except for the husband who pretended to say a few words of affection, the whole family was crying about the grandson and the daughter-in-law. The word seems to have never existed. Everyone mentions her as 'friendly, kind, hard-working', and the person who has the least sense of presence in the collective and is most likely to ignore her personal will, happens to be a person like her."

"And this kind of person is working on amusement park facilities, or exciting equipment such as haunted houses, elevators, and ghost building jumping machines." Wu Yu leaned his head on the back of the car seat, whether it was a little sad or absurd, he shook his head: "Also I don't know if she really likes the job."

Bu Chonghua was silent for a while, and said in a low voice for a long time, "It's just work."

"It's true, but it's too strange." Wu Yu frowned in fascination: "The kidnapper chose this place as the place to exchange the ransom, and the 444,444 Ransom... I always feel like this number is not a death notice, but I can't think of what it means."

—444444, die die die, is there any other special metaphor

Even Bu Chonghua had nothing to do, so Wu Yu pinched Shangen wearily: "If we can figure out the meaning of this number, maybe the case will be solved."

G63 made a corner under the hazy city sky, whistled into the Nancheng Public Security Bureau, and stopped under the Criminal Investigation Detachment Building.

From the corner of his eyes, Bu Chonghua glanced at no one around, then leaned over to unfasten Wu Yu's seat belt, and asked, "What are you doing up there now?"

"I want to find someone to see if they can bring up the detailed background materials of Peng Wan, Ding Sheng and Deng Le. Are you with me?"

Bu Chonghua straightened up and looked at him, then shook his head: "Peng Wan's childhood file involves Wan Changwen, they won't let me read it, for fear that I will cause trouble by myself - but there is one thing you will remember later. live."

"what?"

"If you find a clue, tell Liao Gang or Bureau Song privately, and don't say it immediately in front of everyone."

Wu Yu's eyes changed slightly, and he instantly understood the deep meaning that he had not yet spoken.

"The kidnapper called at 8:15 and asked to surrender. The entire detachment was dispatched at 8:25. The kidnapper was shot at 10:00. Who else knew that Ding Sheng and Deng Le were on the beach except ourselves? The detachment arrived at 10:30. At the scene, a comprehensive search was carried out at 11 o'clock, and the kidnapper's car and two bodies were found at 12 o'clock. It took so many people an hour and a half to bring the dog. How did the murderer accurately locate Ding Sheng and Deng Le and shoot them to death ?" The two looked at each other at close range, and Bu Chonghua's voice was low and solemn: "Even Xu Ju didn't know that the kidnappers were going to surrender on the beach until halfway through, which means that not many people got the news right away. , why is the murderer moving so fast?"

Wu Yu frowned: "But you can't be sure that the murderer learned from the police that the kidnapper decided to surrender, you have to think that if Wan Changwen is really involved in this case, then his people should have been tracking Ding Sheng synchronously with the police. Deng Le and the two…”

"I'm not sure, but I can't dispel the suspicion." Bu Chonghua approached Wu Yu's ear and said softly, "If there is an internal problem, the problem must be the technical investigation."

At this time, a policeman came out of the building, and Bu Chonghua pulled back several inches. The two looked at each other in the small carriage, and then Bu Chonghua nodded and got out of the car.

·

"Xiao Wu is back?" "Hey Xiao Wu!" "Angkor!"…

People came and went in the Criminal Investigation Building. Wu Yu was not used to getting so much attention as soon as he appeared. He sighed and walked quickly to the office, and suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him: "Wu Yu!"

When he turned around, it was Lin Fang.

Lin Fang and Wang Jiuling were discussing something while going upstairs, only to see him finish Wang Jiuling's side in a few words, pat Director Wang's shoulder, and then strode across the corridor to Wu Yu: "What did you do this afternoon? "

- "If there is an internal problem, the problem must be the technical investigation."

Wu Yu's eyes squeezed slightly, but that was only a detail that didn't last for half a second, and then he said flatly, "I went to the water amusement park."

Lin Fang walked up to him and stopped: "Have you found any clues?"

"No."

"The Bu detachment is with you?"

The two just stared at each other face to face, no more than half a foot away from each other, colleagues passed by in groups of three or five, and the noisy voice gradually faded away.

Wu Yu said, "Yes, he is with me."

Lin Fang put his hand in his pocket and nodded thoughtfully, as if he was pondering something.

If Bu Chonghua, like Jiang Ting, is the kind of person who is not afraid to show his edge, Lin Fang is the exact opposite of them, and rarely shows deterrence. He wears basically the same outfit all year round: shirt, semi-formal trousers and moccasins, or suit trousers and semi-formal leather moccasins; many people see him for the first time and think he's just a good workout pair. More focused, rigorous and careful office clerical work.

However, police officers who have been dealing with drugs at the border for a long time, even in office clerks and even logistics, have many differences from their mainland colleagues. Wu Yu saw Lin Fang a year ago when he was besieging the shark gang. In a hurry, he picked up his submachine gun and started to swipe at the truck. Then the long ammunition chain would be emptied in less than half a minute. Familiar people do not have this speed.

In addition, Lin Fang was very gentle in front of Wu Yu most of the time. They both knew that the other party had a similar side to them, and they were used to hiding half of their legs in the dark behind them.

"Let's go together." Lin Fang calmly paused and said, "But if you have any clues, you must tell everyone as soon as possible, otherwise, I am afraid that no one can catch up with the speed of the detachment, and it is too dangerous to go it alone. ."

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his trousers pocket and was about to pour out two, but saw Wu Yu move faster and poured two out of his cigarette case: "Do you smoke?"

Lin Fang's eyes stopped, and he landed on the cigarette in Wu Yu's hand. At that moment, the air between the two of them froze.

Then I saw that he seemed to make a dull "Oh?" and said unexpectedly: "This is the first time you gave me a cigarette. I'm flattered. When the special investigation team was still there..."

"It's not allowed to smoke other people's cigarettes casually?"

"Not really." Lin Fang seemed to be recalling something, and let out a leisurely breath: "But I only smoked Zhang Boming's."

"Is it good?"

"It's alright, Yunyan."

Wu Yu said, "That's much better than my cigarette."

Lin Fang never took his eyes off the cigarette in Wu Yu's hand. He saw that his Adam's apple slipped, and then he laughed: "I can't say it like that... How can meaning be measured by price?"

Saying that, he finally took the cigarette, bit it between his teeth, and was about to touch the lighter, but there was a light click in front of him, and Wu Yu was already on fire.

"If you're willing to help me retrieve all the detailed information about Wan Changwen and Peng Wan, I can also point it out for you myself."

Lin Fang raised his eyes, two pairs of deep eyes looked at each other, only to see the flames beating faintly in the depths of their pupils. After a long while, Lin Fang put his lighter back in his trouser pocket, bit his cigarette and laughed: "Okay, why not?"

The flame and the cigarette butt were separated as soon as they touched it. Lin Fang took a breath and motioned Wu Yu to come to the office with him, with a seemingly nonchalant expression: "But don't show it to the Bu Detachment. It makes sense for the superior to ask him to avoid it. Professional judgment is affected by strong feelings of hatred, so avoidance during the detection stage is only a protective mechanism."

Wu Yu said, "I understand."

Lin Fang opened the door and made a gesture of please.

Lin Fang is a foreign aid in the Nancheng Public Security Bureau. According to his specifications, the office is very simple. It is incomparable to the fact that there are always people standing guard outside the Internet Investigation Office of the Yunnan Provincial Department. He turned on the computer and applied for a temporary permission, and after a while he beckoned Wu Yu to come over and sit down: "Just watch my backstage, don't take it out."

"Is everything here?"

"I can't say everything, but this is all I can touch." Lin Fang raised his eyebrows: "Anyway, for you, the focus is only on her content before she was four years old, isn't it?"

He was right, both of them knew that Wu Yu's biggest goal was not Peng Wan, but his father Wan Changwen who threw her into the water when she was four years old.

Wan Changwen's ancestral grave is in the north, but his fortune from marrying a wife and making drugs was on the coast. When Peng Wan was born, Wan Changwen had already made his first pot of gold by refining high-purity methamphetamine. In just half a year, the business expanded rapidly. He built a seaside villa with a secret road leading directly to the port. A speedboat was parked on the shore all year round; as long as he heard the siren approaching the village, he could evacuate from the villa in just 30 seconds. He arrived at the port along the secret road within 4 minutes, and the speedboat entered the sea within 6 minutes. In terms of the maritime anti-drug strength of the 1980s, he could not even catch his hair.

As for Peng Wan, although Wan Changwen is extremely patriarchal, his daughter was not picked up, and life should be very rich before the age of four. From the information on the intranet, there were as many as 22 servants in Wanjia Villa, who were responsible for housework, cooking, gardening and driving. The degree of wealth is evident. remembered.

But all of this came to an abrupt end when the police raided the drug-making village 30 years ago. At that time, only a few families escaped from the entire village. Wan Changwen was one of them. When the armed police had just stormed into the village, he opened the secret passage inside the villa. He had already rushed into the speedboat with his wife, children, and two confidantes in the drug workshop, and when he was about to escape, he discovered a fatal problem—

overloaded.

Because there are 15 kilograms of gold hidden at the bottom of the speedboat, that is the capital that Wan Changwen is preparing to escape to Myanmar and make a comeback.

"It's hard to find a drug maker. My wife is an adult and will shout and resist, so I can only throw the child away first." Wu Yu sighed, leaning back and sitting on the back of the chair: "And the weight of a four-year-old girl is about fifteen. Kilogram is equivalent to exchanging his daughter's life for the same amount of gold bars."

"Yes." Lin Gang said, "But Wan Changwen probably didn't expect that he threw his daughter into the water here, and his wife jumped over there... Later, his wife was sentenced to probation and was not actually executed because of the lack of key criminal evidence, and His wife was pregnant at the time."

"Peng Wan has younger siblings?"

"No, stillbirth. I guess it has something to do with falling into the water."

Wu Yu nodded without saying a word. After a moment of trance, he suddenly said in a low voice, "Not necessarily."

"What?" Lin Fang didn't respond.

"Wan Changwen didn't necessarily think that his wife would jump with him. Because he wasn't sure how much weight he threw before the speedboat could start."

The surroundings suddenly fell into silence, neither of them said a word, only a trace of chilling malice passed through thirty years and slowly permeated the office.

It took a long time for Wu Yu to sit up and exhale: "Beasts know how to protect their children. Once a person gets drugs, it's really worse than an animal."

Just as his hand touched the mouse, his eyes suddenly moved slightly, and he felt a secret gaze from his side—Lin Fang.

Lin Fang was observing him, his eyes were cold and careful, not letting go of the slightest changes on his face.

Wu Yu remained calm and didn't say anything, and turned to the next page on the screen. That was the miscellaneous information transferred from Peng Wan's company—five insurances and one housing fund, reimbursement records, performance of wages, benefits, bonuses, internal orders she had signed and equipment and equipment she had mentioned, park projects she had worked with, and customer docking personnel Name... Part of the docking records Wu Yu had already read in the water park manager's office, but after reading all the work resumes, he realized that most of Peng Wan's docking before was soft and soothing, such as merry-go-round, music rafting, and flower swings. This is the first time that I have received a thrilling and frightening entertainment project.

Wu Yu turned to the next page, but the mouse suddenly stopped, and he returned to the previous page, staring at the dense rows of numbers.

Haunted house, indoor lift, ghost building jumping machine.

A hazy guess suddenly came to mind, causing Wu Yu's eyes to change slightly.

What kind of person is Peng Wan

Every day she looks at these cheerful children in the amusement park holding hands by their parents, what will she think

Lin Fang narrowed his eyes sensitively: "What's wrong with you?"

"...Nothing," Wu Yu looked a little dazed, got up and waved at him: "I'll go to the bathroom."

"Wait!" Lin Fang pulled him hard: "Did you find out? Don't act alone!"

"I'll go to the bathroom and tell you..."

"Tell me first before going to the toilet!"

Wu Yu flicked his hand away: "What are you doing, diarrhea!"

Lin Fang: "..."

Lin Fang was stunned, watching Wu Yu rush out of the office without turning his head, and said stunned, "Am I not worthy of you to think of a better reason to kill me?"

Wu Yu rushed through the corridor, the vague guesses were like a mess, and the thread was looming in the depths of the fog, but no matter how hard he tried his brains, he couldn't show the truth. Not far away, Liao Gang stood at the entrance of the technical investigation office, watching him from a distance, reaching out to stop him to say something, but he was blocked back by Wu Yu's stern and neat gesture of silence, and the whole person choked on the spot. Watching him pass by and rushed to the big office of the Criminal Investigation Detachment downstairs.

"Step Detachment!"

A tall and familiar figure was standing at the entrance of the stairs. Turning around, it turned out to be Bu Chonghua. When he saw Wu Yu, he immediately said, "I'm looking for you on something!"

"Me too!" Wu Yu strode forward, the two quickly rushed out of the corridor side by side, the wind outside the building raised the corner of his clothes, only to hear Wu Yu's footsteps in a deep voice: "We have to go back to the amusement park immediately. trip."

"What's wrong?"

"—That haunted house might actually contain a ghost."

Bu Chonghua's footsteps stopped abruptly, one hand still maintained the posture of pulling out the key to open the G63, and the two looked at each other.

"...We have to go to the port area." Bu Chonghua's voice was tense, and the increasingly dark cloudy sky was pressing down on the roof of the Nancheng Public Security Bureau: "Ten minutes ago, Ding Sheng's Weibo account was online in the port area. Only I know now, and in three minutes the news will spread through the entire team through the net detection alarm."
