15th of November, 9:20 pm.
Somewhere in S city, in a shop on the street …
The rolled-up Curtain Door of the shop had been lowered, but the light in the room was still very bright.
At this time, a slightly fat, slightly balding man was sitting in front of a laptop, looking at the many surveillance images and flowing information on the screen.
On the table in front of him, there were more than a dozen mobile phones and many strange self-made devices. He was wearing a pocket-sized Bluetooth headset in his left ear, and his hands were constantly flying on the keyboard …
This person … Was called Dong Feng, which meant East and Feng.
“Dong Feng” was not the name given to him by his parents, but he had stopped using his real name a long time ago. And those who came into contact with him were not interested in his real name … They only recognized “Dong Feng.”
Dongfeng’s name was very imposing, but his appearance could only be described as terrible … At least from the perspective of the secular world’s aesthetics, he should be worthy of the word “ugly …”
He was neither fat nor handsome. Although he was only 35 years old, most people’s first impression of him was that he was in his forties.
The obvious receding hairline, greasy skin, deep dark circles under his eyes, and his weird fashion sense … This man with an extremely high IQ and over a hundred million assets was regarded as a poor fool all year round.
Perhaps … This was just his personality, or perhaps … This was just a disguise.
In short, this man, who seemed to be unable to even take care of himself, was engaged in a planning job comparable to precise science, which was to support criminal planning.
Dongfeng’s professional level was very high, and he controlled a very large intelligence network … This network contained countless “secrets” that no one wanted to know, and these “people with secrets” could become Dongfeng’s “chess pieces” when necessary.
Using the incident that happened today as an example … Zheng Xian was one of his pawns.
Of course, that was now an abandoned pawn that had been exposed …
But among the police officers, there was one person who had tipped him off … Until two minutes ago, that person had been sending him real-time information from the investigation of the scene through text messages.
“Hmph … So he’s just an arrogant braggart.” Dongfeng looked at the time on his computer and glanced at his phone.” 15 minutes have passed, and there’s no text message … In the end, this kid doesn’t even have the guts to randomly guess an address and send it …”
Just as he was mumbling, suddenly …
Kapang!
A clear sound of a metal object being pried off was heard.
At that moment, Dong Feng’s expression suddenly changed, because he only took half a second to realize that the thing that had been pried open was the lock of the rolled-up Curtain Door behind him.
Chalalalalalalalala
When the east wind suddenly turned around, the rolling curtain Door was also lifted.
Several glaring rays of light shone in from the street outside the door, accompanied by a series of messy loading sounds and the rising and falling ‘police’! Don’t move!” Dong Feng’s mood went from shock … All the way to the bottom of the valley.
…………
Ten minutes later, Dongfeng was escorted into a police car in handcuffs.
And the person who was sitting in the back seat next to him … Was Feng bujue.
When the car started, Dongfeng said with an ashen face,”How did you know it was me?”
“Of course I found out through analysis.” Feng bujue replied casually.
“I’ve been selling breakfast here for more than a month,” said Dong Feng.”The shop was also rented through formal channels, and there has been no abnormality during this time. How did you see through it?”
The place where Dongfeng was arrested was a breakfast shop that was only two streets away from the headquarters of order.
It was also the place where ghost hunter had bought his breakfast for the past month …
The section of the road where the shop was located was the only way from order’s office building to the subway station. This place was actually not far from the location where ghost hunter was kidnapped. It was only three station’s distance by subway. And the place where ghost hunter was taken to after being kidnapped … Was not far from the place where he was kidnapped because the anesthetic effect of ether had a time limit. If he was taken too far away, he might wake up in the car.
Therefore, in less than twenty minutes, Feng bujue and the police officers had arrived from where the hostages were.
“The first suspicious point was … Even though I repeatedly checked the video, I still couldn’t find ‘when’,’where’, and ‘what method’ the kidnapper used to make GUI Xiao take the laxative.” “You should be very clear …” Feng bujue explained.”The surveillance coverage in S city is very comprehensive. On the streets, in the subway stations, inside the subway … In other words, other than the toilet, most of the public spaces can be accessed. Therefore, from the moment ghost hunter left order’s office until he showed abdominal pain on the subway, the whole process was under surveillance. Although we can’t see it in detail, we can be sure of what he ate and drank, or if he was injected with a needle. ”
“Just because of this … You suspect me?” Dong Feng asked.
“After eliminating all the impossible conclusions, it’s only natural to suspect you.” “Other than the breakfast that I bought from you, ghost hunter did not eat anything this morning. He did not even drink a sip of water. “And from the surveillance video, before he finished the breakfast, only you and him had contact with the food …” He paused.”You’re the only one running the breakfast shop. You’re the only one who can accurately put laxatives into the food of specific people.”
“Can’t he just have a stomachache?” Dong Feng said.
“Ha … If this were any other day, his death could be an accident.” “But today …” Feng bujue said,”there is a hundred percent chance that there is medicine.”
He crossed his hands in front of his chest and said,””This morning, your three executors put on the cleaner’s uniform that they prepared in advance and followed ghost hunter all the way to the subway. Then, the demon ghost had a stomachache, got out of the car, and went into the toilet … The three men followed him all the way, took off their coats, found a toilet with fewer people, hung a maintenance and cleaning sign at the door, and guarded the door. In this way … It didn’t take long for ghost hunter to be the only one left in the toilet.
There were usually two toilets in a subway station, and everyone was in a hurry in the morning. Many people would choose to bear with it and resolve it at the unit. So … Even if they temporarily sealed off a toilet for twenty minutes, it would not cause much of an impact.
Just like that … About twenty minutes later, they took down ghost hunter, who came out of the cubicle, and carried him out of the station … They quickly got into a van that they had prepared beforehand. ”
Feng bujue said all that in one breath, then paused before adding,””This seemingly simple plan … Has two difficulties. First, ghost hunter is still a young man. It’s hard to determine what will happen in the process of taking him down, so the place of action must be a private place with no surveillance cameras or other people around. Secondly, after successfully taking down the target, you must bring the target to the car as fast as possible. Otherwise … If you stay in public for too long, it will arouse suspicion. ”
When Dongfeng heard this, he finally understood the main point of brother Jue’s words. He could not help but say,””I see …”
“Looks like you’ve realized it as well …” Feng bujue could tell the change in the man’s mind just by looking at his expression.”That’s right, only the person who administered the laxative can solve these two problems.” He looked at Dongfeng and said,”by controlling the type and dosage of the drug, we can speculate which stations ghost hunter will get off at. Then, we can prepare the van in advance outside those stations. In addition, it can also ensure that he will go to the toilet and that his legs will be soft after he goes to the toilet …”
“Even so, I’m probably just an ‘ordinary merchant’ who was bribed,” Dongfeng said.”Your priority should be to save the hostage. It’s not too late to deal with people like me after the incident is resolved, right?” He was puzzled.”But why would you …”
“Indeed, I initially thought that you were just someone bribed by the ‘planner’.” “But I’m a logical person, and I like to get to the bottom of the small details when I investigate a case …” Feng bujue explained.”After all, I have access to the resources at the police station, so I decided to investigate this breakfast shop of yours. In the end, I found out … That your shop opened on October 11th, the day after the S2 preliminary competition for the championship ended. ”
Feng bujue paused for two seconds before continuing.””The ‘coincidence’ at this point in time made me realize something … I continued to investigate and found many abnormalities.” He gestured out of the window with his eyes.”This is the business district with many office buildings. The shops nearby are either high-end brands or large shopping malls. Before you rented the shop, it was always empty. The reason was that the shop was too small and the rent was too high … You can’t do big business, but you’ll definitely lose money if you do small business. ”
“Hmph … You’re wrong …” Dongfeng snorted coldly.”I’ve actually made a small profit over the past month.”
“Then I must really congratulate you.” Feng bujue laughed.”But that’s not the point. The point is … In summary, your shop and you … Are all very suspicious. After further investigation, I noticed that your identity was forged …”
“This … Is what I can’t understand the most.” Dongfeng stared at brother Jue’s face and said,”I’m not afraid to tell you this. When I first entered the industry, I specialized in creating fake identities. All the documents I’m currently using are extremely difficult to be identified by any country in the world. ” He changed the topic and his eyes turned sharp.”But … You can tell that it’s fake …”
“Yeah, I looked at your electronic file. I could tell when I read your junior high school file.” Feng bujue said.
“Impossible!” Dongfeng said firmly,”the details of the identity file that I compiled are very detailed. Even the school’s results and reward and punishment Records are …”
“It’s because it’s too detailed that I revealed a flaw. ” Feng bujue interrupted.
“What?” Dong Feng’s eyes flickered with surprise and suspicion.
“According to the file, you won the third prize in the city-wide junior high school essay competition in 2035.” Brother Jue said.
“So what?” Dong Feng asked.
That’s right, that doesn’t mean anything … In the fake identity document, all the details were just to make the identity more realistic. This kind of award, which had been around for many years and was neither big nor small, was basically something without any evidence.
“That year, there were three students who won the third prize in the city-wide junior high school essay competition. They were all girls, and by the way, they were all squadron leaders. “You can’t possibly be a transsexual, right?” Feng bujue replied.
“Ha?” Dongfeng was stunned.”How did you know?”
At this time, Dongfeng thought,”you were still wearing diapers in 2035, right?” Are you trying to scare me?
“I knew you would ask that.” As Feng bujue said that, he took out his phone, opened a web page, and placed it before Dongfeng.”Take a look yourself.”
Dongfeng took a closer look and saw that the mobile phone was showing a shopping page of an electronic mall. The item on the screen was a physical book called “the city-wide primary and secondary school essay competition winner’s review and comments.”
“I can’t believe such a publication exists in this world …” Dongfeng couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Yes, I’m the one who wrote this publication.” Feng bujue replied.
When Dongfeng heard this, he almost fainted.”Speaking of which … I almost forgot … You’re also a novelist.”
Of course, Dongfeng recognized brother Jue. As someone who knew a thing or two about Thriller Paradise, it was impossible for him not to recognize this man. However, when they were on the phone, Dongfeng did not realize that the person on the other end of the line was Feng bujue, and he only realized that when he was arrested.
“Yes, I took a month’s time a few years ago to read all the winning essays since the existence of that competition. I made comprehensive comments and criticized them … And learned about the family backgrounds and the dark secrets of all the winners from my lackeys in the Education Department. In the end, he wrote that masterpiece of satire and realism. ” Feng bujue’s entire sentence was filled with shamelessness and a huge amount of dark information.”Therefore, I am one hundred percent sure that you are not one of the winners.”
“Not to mention the fact that you can remember the names and years of each Award winner in those books …” Dongfeng said,”it’s too arbitrary to judge that my entire identity is fake based on such a mistake … Maybe I just wrote it to make my resume look better?”
“Your fake identity has been a freelancer ever since you graduated from high school. You don’t even have an internship record. Let me ask you this … As a professional breakfast seller, who are you planning to show your resume to after polishing it?” “Furthermore …” Feng bujue said,”can this kind of award really make a resume look better? Isn’t it more reliable to write an sports or science Award?”
“Who would have thought …” Dongfeng’s expression was very depressed. He was a very capable man, but Feng bujue had given him a psychological sense of defeat and physical pain. At this time, Dongfeng couldn’t help but start to recall if there were similar flaws in his other fake identities.
“Alright, the loss and profit of the store, the exposure of my identity … There’s no point in dwelling on these things now.” Feng bujue, on the other hand, brought the topic back to the right track.”In any case, you did not come here to make money from the start. Even if you lose eighty to one hundred thousand this month and add in the few hours of work every morning … That’s fine, right?” He licked his lips and continued,”the true value of this shop is … It can provide you with a near-perfect stronghold in a place very close to the headquarters of the order. Except for the few hours in the morning, you can freely move in there at other times of the day …”
“Ha …” At this point, brother Jue chuckled.”For someone like you who has professional knowledge and technical skills, using the electrical box in the store to physically hack all the internet users in a certain area shouldn’t be that difficult, right?”
“Hmph …” Dongfeng immediately snorted again.”It’s not as simple as you say …”
This was his silent agreement.
“Regulation’s office building is undoubtedly your main target. ” Feng bujue continued,”you know very well the value of S2, a highly-anticipated tournament, in the outer gambling circles, so you’ve been planning this for a long time, ready to influence the outcome of a particular tournament.” He stretched out a finger.”As long as there’s a business deal … Such as today’s deal … It will give you a huge benefit.” He spread his hands and smiled.”Even if you didn’t receive any relevant commissions during this period, it’s still good to access the network of the nearby big companies and get some information. Trade secrets, personal privacy …… In your hands, these things can not only be turned into money, but also into’ power ‘.”
As Feng bujue said that, he took out a phone from his pocket. It was not Zheng Xian’s phone, but someone else ‘s.
“This ‘power’ can make many people work for you …” Brother Jue smiled.”For example, the owner of this phone …” As he spoke, he took out another phone. This time, it was Zheng Xian ‘s.”And … The owner of this phone …”
“I see …” At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Dongfeng’s mind. He said in a deep voice,”you knew from the beginning that I had another mole in the police station besides Zheng Xian …”
“That’s right. ” Feng bujue said,”when I found out that Deputy Director Zheng acted after ‘receiving’ the call, I already came to this conclusion.”
“So … The previous call you had with me … Was a trap …” Dongfeng said regretfully,”tsk … I should have thought of it. The nonsense of ‘after finding the target, directly lead the men to break in and hold the scene with tear gas before I could give any instructions’ was a typical temptation …”
“Your reaction is quite fast.” Feng bujue chuckled.”But compared to me … Hehe … You’re still half a step behind me.”
“You caught Zheng Xian, but you were not sure who the other spy was,” Dongfeng said as he thought.”So, you pretended not to know and mobilized as many police forces as possible to surround the residential area where the hostage was. You know … Under those circumstances, my mole would definitely follow the main force and find an opportunity to pass on information to me. ”
“I’m just following your plan. ” “When you heard that the police had set up a special task force, the first thing you could guess was that … Once the police started a full investigation, they would be able to lock onto the location of the hostage through the surveillance cameras on the street.” He touched his chin and continued,”of course, the place you chose is very good. It’s a property that has not been fully developed. There are many empty houses in it that have not been sold. The surveillance cameras in the community have not been fully installed, so the police can’t find out the exact location of the hostage in a short time.”
At this point, brother Jue waved Zheng Xian’s phone.”So, you immediately used Deputy Director Zheng as a chess piece.” He tilted his head and laughed.”But I didn’t expect … Not long after, your other mole sent a message saying that Zheng Xian was detained by two agents from an unknown department.”
“Detaining Zheng Xian … Was it also a deliberate act for me to see?” Said Dong Feng.
“Yes,” “I know that your other mole will tell you this, and this … Will set the stage for that ‘call’ between us,” Feng bujue said.
“How did you know that I would definitely make that call?” Dong Feng asked.
“I don’t know,” Feng bujue replied in a mocking tone,”so, I led my team to surround the neighborhood. We’ll see if you can keep your cool.”
“Damn it …” Dongfeng couldn’t refute this ridicule.
“I was relieved when you called.” “You’re not as patient as I expected,” Feng bujue said. He smiled.”You pretended to be calm and said ‘play a game’, but in fact, you wanted to test and induce my action … So that you could create an opportunity for your ‘three chess pieces’ to escape that area.”
“So … You took advantage of this and tried to counter-lure me …” Dongfeng said in a deep voice.”In those ‘ 15 minutes’… You didn’t look for the ‘hostage’ at all, but for the ‘mole’.”
“Very good, you’re right.” Feng bujue snapped his fingers and replied,”I don’t care about the content of the phone call. I don’t care if you ask for fifteen minutes or not. Even if you say five minutes, three minutes, it doesn’t matter … As long as I deliver ‘what I want to say’… I can be sure that you will do three things after hanging up. ” Brother Jue extended three fingers and smiled.”First, think of a plan to deal with this. The second was to make a phone call to the three executors and briefly inform them of the several operation modes. Third, contact your mole through text or phone and get him to cooperate with the operation. ”
“And you …” Dongfeng continued,”after hanging up the phone, you immediately took control of all the police officers ‘mobile phones …”
Feng bujue shrugged and answered the question with a sneaky expression before adding,””After that, the police’s actions were completely out of your sight, and I could do whatever I wanted …” He picked up the phone of the mole and showed it off proudly.”…All I needed was a text message saying ‘everything is normal’, and you would be kept in the dark and wait for death.”
“After you got out of my surveillance … You rushed over to arrest me at full speed …” Dongfeng said,”have you ever thought … What if I’m not in the shop and you find nothing?”
“Of course, I got someone to watch the surveillance footage for the whole day … To make sure you didn’t leave the shop before I came. (This job was already arranged by brother Jue before the two of them spoke).” “Of course …” Feng bujue said,”I can’t rule out the possibility that you might have dug an emergency escape route in the shop.” He pursed his lips and said noncommittally,”so … When I came to catch you, as for the hostages … I’ve also prepared several countermeasures according to the confession of your mole. The escape plans you’ve planned … Even if they implement them, the result will be that they’re walking into a trap.”
Feng bujue crossed his legs and said,””Not to mention … You and all your equipment are now in our hands. Given that you always use a voice changer to contact the chess pieces, it’s not difficult to impersonate you to give orders to the executors. I’ll get someone to impersonate you and make a phone call to get them to let her go. ”
“Good …” Dongfeng’s tone seemed to be relieved.”Good plan … There’s room for change and retreat …” He shook his head and said,”I’m convinced.”
“You’re too kind.” Feng bujue cupped his fists.”You’re not too bad yourself.”
“But …” Dong Feng said,”you should also understand … For someone like me, even if I lose for a while today, I won’t stay in prison for too long … I’ll be able to regain my freedom very soon.” At this moment, he actually smiled.”If you want to talk about the reason … It’s because I … Have the kind of ‘power’ you mentioned.”
“What’s wrong? Are you trying to scare me?” Feng bujue replied calmly.
“What do you think?” “Feng bujue, to be honest … I admire your talent, but at the end of the day … You are just a normal person. The ‘other world’ that I live in is something that you will never understand. If I wanted to take revenge on you … It would be as easy as turning my hand. ” He looked at brother Jue with confidence, and the defeated look on his face was gone.”To be honest … What happened today is a huge loss to me. If you were me, what would you do?”
Dong Feng had thought that his words would scare Feng bujue, or even make him admit defeat.
But unexpectedly …
“Hehe … Hahaha …” An evil smile appeared on Feng bujue’s face.”If I were you, when facing someone like Feng bujue … I would be extra careful. I won’t easily say something like that, because if I make him feel even the slightest bit of threat, he’ll do something that I can’t even imagine. ”
As brother Jue spoke, he pointed out the window.””Speaking of which … I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the place you’re heading to … Isn’t the police station.”
As soon as he said this, Dong Feng’s expression changed.
“The two people driving … They’re not the police.” Feng bujue then pointed at the agent from Department 9 and Bao Qing, who were in the driver’s seat and the passenger’s seat respectively.
At this moment, Dongfeng also noticed that the two drivers were dressed in black instead of their police uniforms.
“You … Who are you …” Within a few seconds, Dongfeng became the one who was afraid.
“As for the ‘other world’ that you mentioned, I have some understanding of it …” Feng bujue was not done.”When your mole told me … That everyone on the street calls you ‘Dong Feng’, I thought of it … If I’m not wrong, you were once the ‘gambling supervisor’ of the gambling king’s house, right?”
“You even know about the gambling king’s house …” Dongfeng was stunned.
“I know much more than you think.” “For example,” Feng bujue said,”in less than a minute after you got into the car, you removed the handcuffs, but you pretended to be handcuffed.”
When Dong Feng heard this, he became more and more nervous, and cold sweat rolled down his face.
“You’ve been a ‘gambling watcher’ before, so you should have some skills. ” Bao Qing, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, finally said,”but I advise you not to think about violent resistance. I can tell you clearly that … Even if it’s a one-on-one fight, none of the three people in this car will lose to you.”
“You …” Dong Feng began to tremble involuntarily due to fear.”…You are …’Nine subjects’, right?”
“So you know about it too.” “That saves me a lot of time,” Feng bujue said.
“I didn’t expect …” Dongfeng turned to look at brother Jue.”A novelist like you is also a subject nine …”
“Hehe … If I told you the Section Chief is my grandfather, would you believe me?” Feng bujue replied casually.
When Dong Feng heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times before he slumped into his seat.
Two seconds later, Dong Feng turned his head and looked out of the window with a face of despair.”If I don’t die this time…I’d better change my profession to selling breakfast in the future …”
