In Eastern District police station.
More and more murders hadn't been piled up, and there was another kidnapping case. Weldon, the
director of the police station, had grown more grey hair. He had been doing well all his life, but he didn't
expect that he would meet such a big trouble before he retired.
Arthur had been flirting with a man in the name of recuperating in the hospital. After the kidnapping, he
had some professional ethics and rushed back as soon as possible. For Arthur, the mention of
kidnapping was like an invisible steel wire, one end of it holding him, the other holding the hanging
case 24 years ago.
The unsolved case for many years seemed to have lifted up the old scar again.
The meeting room was shrouded in smoke, and everyone was nervous. They stared at the large
screen, on which there was only half a minute's audio. The content was not long, but they had heard it
dozens of times, but still could not hear anything unusual.
"Play it again." Arthur put out the cigarette and said in a very low voice, "Rolf, turn the volume up and
play this audio again."
Rolf glanced at Weldon in silence. He didn't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that there was
something different with Arthur today, but he couldn't tell what it was.
Weldon pressed his temples and said, "Do as he says."
Rolf immediately turned the volume to the maximum and played it again. The strange tone after being
processed sounded again in the meeting room.
"Click... Click... Click...
After half a minute's recording, there was no word. There was only a sound of fingers tapping the steel
pipe, which seemed to hit a person's bone, making him stand up with sweat all over his body.
In addition to this audio, there was also a photo in which the girl was tied to a huge black cross, like a
lily that had experienced wind and rain and had lost its vitality.
"The photo was sent to me," said Cassandra in a hoarse voice, breaking the silence in the air. "It was at
7:13. At the same time, you received this audio, which means that this photo and the audio were sent
at the same time by the kidnappers. But why did they do that?"
After Cassandra's words, there was another silence in the meeting room.
If it was just a simple kidnap and blackmail, why didn't they blackmail after sending the photos and
didn't threaten them not to call the police? Instead, they took the initiative to send the audio to the
police, revealing the fact that they had kidnapped.
The kidnappers were either stupid or... They were sure that the police couldn't find them. If it was the
latter case, Bonnie would have no chance to survive.
Only Martin and Arthur knew that the kidnapper sent this to the police on purpose so that Arthur could
see it and recall the case that his sister was kidnapped 24 years ago.
The same method of committing a crime, the same way of blackmailing, the same sound of steel pipe
knocking
Two cases and two people's lives seemed to pass through time and space and overlapped perfectly.
Someone was secretly plotting to dig out the old case. What on earth did he want to do?
"The surveillance video at the gate of Hillside Garden doesn't work. The cameras nearby that can be
used have been checked. No matter how capable the kidnapper is, I must find out who he is!"
Cassandra glanced at Arthur and said, "The surveillance camera doesn't work. The kidnapper must
have arranged it in advance. There is still a very serious problem at present. Should we inform
Bonnie's family?"
If the police hadn't received the audio recording, she didn't intend to get the police involved. After all,
once the police were involved, many things couldn't be carried out in secret, or it would cause greater
trouble.
"Not now," Arthur shook his head. "In the name of a friend, inform the family members that there is an
activity in the school and Bonnie won't go home tonight. Besides, don't reveal anything about it to the
public to avoid causing social shock."
Bettina said, "I'll arrange it. After all, I'm a girl. It's more convenient for me to communicate with the
family members."
At this time, Arthur didn't want to make fun of Bettina. He nodded and said, "Thank you."
"Arthur, do you know what to do with this case?" Weldon looked at Arthur with a sad face, "There have
been so many things in the jurisdiction area in a row. I'm almost broken. I believe you in solving the
case."
Arthur kept silent for two seconds. "Don't worry. I will solve the case as soon as possible and get the
hostage back safely."
Weldon's knitted brows spread for a moment, and he nodded repeatedly, "Of course I can rest assured.
But this time, Mr. and Mrs. Lu are also involved. You have to be careful. Don't cause me a lot of trouble
when the case is solved. Haven't I cleaned up enough for you?"
Director Wang looked at Arthur with resentment.
Generally speaking, it was not the first time that he had encountered a kidnapping case. According to
his past experience, there was a chance to solve it. But this case was very strange. Something
indistinctly occurred to him, but that idea flashed away before he could capture it.
Arthur was usually shameless. He could retort back by ten times at once if someone else said
something. But today, he just sat there with a cigarette in his mouth, half of his face hidden in the
smoke.
After a while, Arthur said quietly, "Well, let our men solve the case. It's getting late. Director Wang, you
can go back first."
Weldon was too old to stay up late. After a few words, he held his waist and left the meeting room.
After Arthur made an emergency arrangement, all the people in the East District police station were
sent out by him. They went to visit, investigate, and even set up roadblocks at the entrance of the high-
speed road, not letting go of any suspicious clues.
Even if they had to find a needle in the sea, they had to get Bonnie back.
In the meeting room.
In another office, Cassandra and Carlos tried their best to find Bonnie by using Martin and all the forces
around him.
Standing face to face with Martin, Arthur, with a cigarette in his mouth, said in a slightly hoarse voice,
"If it weren't for Carlos' future girlfriend, I would have thought that you sent someone to do this case."
Martin: "the same audio, no blackmail, and the police were also alarmed Someone is luring you to
investigate the case 24 years ago, or they want to use this case to remind you. "
