100, wave after wave

Originally, Mai Qiongshan was just a little worried about whether Mai Weiting would be humiliated if she didn't pay the money on time. But now when she made this call, she was obviously a little nervous.

The new news she wanted to tell Levis was that the other party called again, saying that Tracy McGrady was also in their hands, and that the two of them wanted a total of 30 million!

It was really a wave of ups and downs. Levis was also a little surprised that these kidnappers were so open-minded and completely focused on the Mai family.

He drove slowly and looked for the phone booth where the previous phone number came from. Although he felt that it might not be of much significance, it was still a clue, so he asked Mai Qiongshan to ask for the phone number.

A few minutes later, I received a text message on my mobile phone from a number sent by Michelle Mac. It was a landline number, not the same one as before.

Levis called Luo Yongshi again.

"Please help me look up the number again..."

Luo Yongshi listened to what he said, wrote down the number, and couldn't help but ask: "If there is no other way, let's call the police officially and let everyone investigate together. It's just you alone, after all, you can't be separated."

Levis smiled bitterly: "They should also call the police now, another one has been kidnapped, and the ransom has been increased to 30 million."

Luo Yongshi was surprised. The ransom of 20 million was already a rare kidnapping case in recent times. Now it has been increased to 30 million, which is enough for the police to take it seriously.

"Levis, I'll try my best to find someone to help you investigate, but the scope of my reach is limited. You'd better do some of their work and ask them to call the police as soon as possible."

"Thank you."

"We are partners, why are you thanking me? I am also helping you without violating discipline." Just talking about him and Luo Yongshi, if you really want to find out, you can still find out in two or three days.

. But his identity is a bit inconvenient.

Although it is now considered as giving face to Mai Qiongshan and helping relatives, he even asks for a phone number and has to go through Mai Qiongshan. Except for Maitian who chatted for a while today, he is not familiar with Mai Zhiwen and others. In addition, this level of relationship

, interrogating and investigating in a police tone may be self-defeating.

After walking around for a while, I arrived at the address provided by Luo Yongshi and locked a roadside phone booth. This should be the phone booth with the number I found.

Levis stopped the car and carefully observed the surrounding environment. While watching, he called Joanne McQueen and told them the current situation. He suggested that they call the police and he would continue to investigate privately.

After making the call, he had looked around completely. Xiaojiu also calculated various data in time: how many households on the surrounding floors were likely to come here to make a call; based on the speed of vehicle flow at this moment, calculated the number of people.

How many mobile workers may have made calls here in a short period of time...

These data are very large. They are maximization and very general data. They are of no practical help. You cannot find one person who called out of thousands of people. If that is the case, you might as well find someone to take fingerprints.

Nowadays, everyone has a mobile phone. In the past few hours, there should be no more than five people who have actually used the phone.

Taking fingerprints has been very common in Hollywood police movies 20 years ago, and is also common in domestic movies in recent years. But in fact, it is not that convenient and simple. Although the police can take fingerprints, the police's fingerprint database is limited. It can even be said that it is very difficult.

Small, it may be easier to identify someone with a criminal record. When have ordinary people ever left their fingerprints with the police?

Levi's has patience and plenty of time.

Thirty million is not a small amount. If you want to transfer money, the procedure can be completed quickly. In fact, it still requires a lot of procedures. ^^ Money will not always be idle. Investing in various aspects requires tens of millions of cash, and it still takes time.

It is even more difficult to mobilize. And getting cash is even more difficult. Thirty million in cash, that is, all the banknotes of one thousand denominations, also need to be hauled by truck.

Therefore, the three days given by the other party are actually not enough to collect the money. But for the investigation, three days is already a lot of time.

Luo Yongshi quickly replied and told him the address of the phone booth with another number.

Levis was not familiar with this area. He had not mentioned it before, so he had to recall the map.

Memorizing a map is the first thing he does when he goes to a place. The difference is that in the 26th century, he can easily input this information. By operating it with Xiaojiu, the big one can see the overall direction; the small one can adjust it.

A three-dimensional image of every street in the city. Now in the 21st century, he initially bought a detailed map and scanned it carefully in his mind.

What surprised Levi was that according to the sign on the map, the address Luo Yongshi just mentioned was on a nearby street!

There has been a gap of four hours between the two phone calls. In four hours, you can go to Shenzhen or even Guangzhou to make a call. Why are you still nearby?

Levis drove the car slowly, looked at the surrounding environment, and drove towards the street.

Both phone numbers are in this area, which means their base is also in this area.

The fact that they dare to use a public phone booth in the same area means that these people are either very sure that the Mai family does not dare to call the police and feel that ordinary people cannot easily find the specific location of the public phone; or... they are novices with little experience!

Found a second phone booth.

In fact, even if it is confirmed that it is in this area, the area is still very large. If you cannot target one building, one street is enough for you to check the area. This may be the reason why they do not go far to make calls.

He didn't stop, he just had an idea of ​​what was going on, and then he drove slowly around the area, understanding every detail.

It took Levis more than half an hour to get familiar with the area around the two phone booths. He knew how many public phone booths, parking lots, and buildings there were in this area...

When he was familiar with the environment, he also sorted out all the details, clues, time, patterns, etc. in his mind, and through logical reasoning, he had a better understanding of the situation this time.

Looking at the time, it was already past nine o'clock. Levis called Mai Qiongshan, asked Mai Tian's personal phone number, and then drove to Mai's house.

On the way to Mai's house, Levi called Mai Tian's cell phone.

Maitian waited for a while before answering the phone. He didn't know whether it was because he wasn't with his phone or because he didn't want others to hear what he was saying.

"Haha, Weiss, what I said has come true! I just talked casually in the morning, but I didn't expect that both of them have problems today and need your help."

After all, he is an old man who has seen big storms. Even if there is a major problem in front of him, he can still remain calm in his tone and still laugh at himself.

"Grandpa, have you called the police?"

When it came to business, Maitian also became serious: "I'm still hesitating. Half a day has passed. Now I support your view and think it's better to call the police. Your aunt refused to call the police and cried and shouted to raise money. Your uncle still

I don’t really believe it, and I suspect that McGrady and Tingting colluded to defraud him of his money, saying that they would not call the police or give him money until they saw concrete evidence.”

Levis smiled and remembered the plot in the movie, "It can't be that McGrady has used this method to defraud him of his money before." Maybe. This kid is also naughty..." Maitian sighed.

"Then don't call the police for now. I have asked my friends to help me investigate together, and now I have discovered something. If you don't go to sleep so quickly...I will interview you later, and I am rushing over now." Levis said to himself.

the goal of.

Mai Tian smiled bitterly: "My grandson and granddaughter have been kidnapped. Do you think I am still in the mood to sleep and sit back and relax?"

"Then wait for me. I'll be there in less than half an hour."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Maitian was a little relieved, not because of Levi's help, but because of his calmness. Everyone in the family was making trouble, complaining to each other, and waiting anxiously. Later, when they found out, Levi had already started investigating.

Yes, even though he is a policeman, he can see the difference in abilities.

When they arrived outside Mai's house, Levi did not go in and called Mai Tian to come out. He was not interested and had no need to deal with Mai Zhiwen and others. Instead of making them suspicious, it would be better to just let Mai Tian, ​​who believed in him, come out.

It was past ten o'clock, and the old man wanted to go out so late, so the whole family started to move. Under Maitian's scolding, no one dared to stop him, but they all followed him out.

Watching his father get into a car, but the car drove away immediately without stopping. Mai Zhiwen couldn't help but frowned, "Who is that, and where are you taking Dad?"

"Who else? The one from your sister's house!" Although his wife was frowning and her eyes were red from crying, she was still sharp-eyed and recognized that the driver was Levi's.

"That son of the Li family?" Unlike Wheatfield, they would not treat Levi's as a nephew. "What does this kid want from his father?"

"Oh! No!" His wife screamed: "Why didn't you think of him? He hasn't come to our door for many years. I asked him why he came suddenly today. Something happened as soon as he came. This must have something to do with him.
