According to the law of conservation of all things.
Energy neither creates nor disappears out of thin air, it can only be transformed from one form into other forms.
The same goes for people.
From the communication with Luo Peng, Jiang Chen learned that Xia Wanqing's disappearance was definitely carefully planned, and it could not be accomplished by one or two people.
Being able to buy through a hotel, erase traces, and turn a living person into a non-existent "ghost" is impossible without a certain amount of energy.
Obviously.
This is not an accident.
It is very likely that Luo Peng has been targeted for a long time.
Before going there, Jiang Chen had jokingly reminded him, but he didn’t expect his words to come true.
The drunkard’s intention is not to drink.
Is it for yourself?
Jiang Chen, who has experienced many crises, can't help but think like this.
But logic quickly rejected this guess.
If she really came for him, then it should not be Xia Wanqing who is missing now, but Luo Peng.
Although Xia Wanqing spent 70 million on him, Luo Peng was undoubtedly more important in his heart than a former Qinyuan courtesan.
Moreover.
To be able to direct such a "magic" in a foreign country, the power behind it must be extraordinary. If it were really targeted at him, the first thing Jiang Chen would think of would be Song Chaoge.
But I had a drink with him at Afang Palace last night and exchanged the truth with each other sincerely.
Could it be that he was just pretending to be a tactic to paralyze himself?
Even if he should speculate on his opponent with the greatest malice, Jiang Chen's intuition still told him that the opponent should not be so boring.
Do you want to tell Lan Peizhi?
Xia Wanqing can be regarded as someone who came out of her hands.
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Chen gave up the plan. From the moment he spent 70 million to bring people out of Qinyuan with Luo Peng, the Nanxu girl who was widely sought after by wealthy businessmen has disappeared, replaced by Xia Wanqing, who used to be the front desk of Tianci Capital and now serves as the agent for Gao Li Shenyan.
Jiang Chen walked to his office and made a phone call.
No matter who is responsible for this "magic" that transforms a human being, or what the purpose is, at least one fact is clear.
Every minute more time passes, the more dangerous Xia Wanqing will be.
This is not an exaggeration.
Maybe there is only one in 10,000 chance, but if that one in 10,000 chance happens to happen to you, the consequences are unpredictable.
Those shocking news are enough to explain everything.
Pushing the door into the office, Sister Taoist sister sat quietly on the sofa, holding a tablet in her hand.
This is a new piece of work equipment given to her by Boss Jiang. Its greatest purpose is to pass the time.
Jiang Chen called.
Duanmu Liuli chases dramas.
The two of them do not disturb each other.
After making several phone calls, Jiang Chen put down his cell phone, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and pinched his eyebrows.
After a while, the phone rang again.
It’s Luo Peng.
Jiang Chen answered the call and put it to his ear.
“The police from the Xiang Kingdom are here.”
Luo Peng’s mood became more stable and he said in a deep voice: “I told them everything.”
"What did they say?"
"These police officers thought I couldn't understand Thai, but I at least learned some words. They communicated privately that I was crazy, and just now they suggested that I see a doctor."
Luo Peng's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger and helplessness.
The police pay attention to evidence when handling cases.
Monitoring found no trace.
The word "upper and lower" in the hotel means that there is no such person as Xia Wanqing. The police therefore feel that Luo Peng has some mental problems, which seems to be excusable.
“The surveillance in the hotel can’t be found, but that doesn’t mean the surveillance outside can’t find it either. You must not have stayed in the hotel all the time, right? Check where you have been. I don’t believe that all traces have been erased.”< br>
Jiang Chen looked out the window and analyzed calmly.
“The surveillance cameras they have here are all fake. Go check the surveillance cameras on the street right away. We went to Slim the night before, and the waiter there can prove that I didn’t go alone!”
< br>Luo Peng was probably speaking English to the Xiangguo police over there.
Mr. Luo’s Thai is not good, but his English is still at a standard CET-6 level.
"Are you stupid? They have all colluded. What's the use of asking them? They are a bunch of idiots!"
Luo Peng's mood fluctuated again.
Being two countries apart, Jiang Chen could only listen here.
"What are you going to do, let go!"
Soon, Luo Peng's angry shouts came from over there. It was probably the Xiangguo police who had a conflict with him.
Same.
Respecting the police is a basic legal obligation in any country. What's more, as a foreigner, if you yell at others and use bad words on their territory, how can they be polite again?
“What are they going to do?”
Jiang Chen asked calmly.
"Damn, they seem to be taking me away for a mental evaluation!"
"You are not in the country now, so be restrained."
"I warn you not to mess around, or my When the lawyers arrive, you all have to take off your uniforms!"
Mr. Luo is not an ordinary person. He has no stage fright even when he is abroad. He threatened and said to the phone in a hurried tone: "Jiang Chen, I now strongly suspect that these policemen may be in the same group..."
"Don't conflict with them first, otherwise you will be the one who suffers"
Jiang Chen advised, In the process of law enforcement, if you don't cooperate and resist fiercely, it's normal to punch you and kick you a few times. It's not cost-effective at all. If a good man doesn't suffer the immediate consequences, why should he suffer in vain?
“What if I really go with them, and they really test me for mental illness and imprison me?”
Although it is inappropriate, Jiang Chen still can’t help it. I want to laugh a little bit.
This guy can never change his nature as a funny guy.
However, this cannot be said to be completely unreasonable.
The evil of human nature is like an invisible abyss that cannot be looked directly into.
Jiang Chen was about to speak when there was another movement on the other end of the phone.
"Stop it, everyone! We are the Chinese Embassy in the Kingdom of Xiang. We have been ordered to protect the safety of our citizens."
Jiang Chen paused.
The bustle on the other end of the phone gradually subsided.
“The embassy is here.”
Luo Peng gasped.
“I heard it.” Jiang Chen said: “It’s not safe for you to be alone now, so go with the people from the embassy.”
“Yes.”
No need to remind you, Luo Peng was also aware of his situation, but he was confused about one thing, "I haven't had time to call the embassy yet. How did they get the news?"
It is true that one of the main responsibilities of an embassy is to protect the personal safety of citizens abroad.
But the problem is that a foreign country is a foreign country after all, and it is impossible to report to you what happens in other people's territory as soon as possible. "I called."
Jiang Chen said something, and then said: "Give your phone to the person in charge of the embassy."
"Oh, okay. "
Soon I heard Luo Peng's words, "Who is the leader?"
After a while, a middle-aged female voice sounded on the phone, her voice was solemn and her words were serious. round.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am Zhong Xiaoai, the secretary of the Chinese Embassy in Xiang. I have received notice from my superiors. Please rest assured that Mr. Luo is an outstanding young entrepreneur in our country. We The embassy in Xiang will definitely protect his personal and property safety."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhong."
"Protecting our citizens is our job and responsibility. I will guide Luo. Always safe to leave.”
After the exchange, the phone returned to Luo Peng's hand.
Luo Peng was not surprised at all by this kind of battle. He was born in a wealthy family and had an extraordinary understanding of the rules of society since he was a child. .
A God-given capital and a Donghai Chamber of Commerce made him feel like a fish in the delta. It is hard to imagine how high his good friend has climbed now.
"I'll go with them."
Luo Peng said first, and then asked: "What should I do with Xia Wanqing?"
"I'll handle it."< br>
"Okay."
Without any doubt, Luo Peng hung up the phone directly, and then another call came in.
"Mr. Jiang, I have asked Lord Jin."
Jiang Chen held up his mobile phone, "How do you say it."
"There is indeed a similar criminal group in the Xiang Kingdom. It is large in scale, well-organized, and has a strong local background. Its business mainly includes human trafficking."
This time it is not the Xiang Kingdom. , but Myanmar.
It was Xu Kuan’s voice.
"Since Lord Jin has connections in Xiang Country, can you find the person?"
The fastest way to solve this kind of thing may not be to go to the police.
It’s not that the police are incompetent, but that they have specializations in their profession.
By the time the police dig deep and find clues, it’s likely that the day lilies are already cold.
“Master Jin is already asking, but Mr. Jiang, this matter is more than just human trafficking.”
Xu Kuan said unhurriedly: “There are many types of human trafficking, such as The lowest level is that there is no distinction between the target and the criminal group's purpose of robbing such people is very straightforward, removing the organs and selling them on the secondary market, but what happened to your friend should not be of this type."
Naturally does not belong.
If you just simply catch "meat pigs", there is no need to go to such great lengths to perform a magical magic that can transform a living person into a living person.
Generally, such human traffickers pay attention to being "short, smooth and quick". Heitian Xiahuo just randomly picked up a sack and tied a random lucky person in the car and left. How could there be so many steps in the process.
“What other types are there.”
Jiang Chen just asked if he didn’t understand. Even if he learned a lot, this knowledge would not be taught in books.
"There are also targeted crimes. They are not random crimes. One of the more common ones is kidnapping. Criminal groups purposefully identify targets with certain strength to attack, and then use them as blackmail to demand ransom."< br>
Jiang Chen can understand this, but it doesn’t seem to be consistent with Xia Wanqing’s experience.
“If it is just to ask for ransom, there is no need to hide it at all. It is meaningless to make a mystery so that a person does not exist.”
“Mr. Jiang is right, so I think, you My friend may have fallen into the hands of the third type of criminal group.”
Jiang Chen waited patiently.
“Now there is such a type of organization in the world. They specialize in serving the world’s top powerful people. Because their targets are super powerful people, their business requirements are relatively high and they will not be ordinary women. In order to make customers To get all-round pleasure from body to mind, they will look for high-quality women who meet the requirements all over the world, whose body, appearance, knowledge, identity... are all indispensable.”
Jiang Chen was silent.
The upper class is the lowest class.
This is no secret at all.
Those people at the top of the pyramid are only well-dressed when they are wearing clothes. If they take off their clothes, they are probably not as civilized as ordinary people.
"You are saying that my friend was arrested..."
"I am just guessing."
"I think your guess is very possible."
Wasn’t it because he took so much pains to avoid being traced, or to make the tracing more difficult?
According to logical analysis, it seems that only Xu Kuan's guess can explain it.
Shadow, appearance, talent... Xia Wanqing is the best choice,
The only shortcoming may be the "identity" item.
But as the courtesan of Qinyuan, not to mention China, even looking at the world, how many women are worth more than 70 million?
This is not a Zimbabwe dollar.
"Mr. Jiang, if your friend falls into the hands of such an organization, there is at least one advantage. You don't have to worry about safety issues for the time being."
"You are quite good at comforting people. .”
Same.
Xu Kuan is right.
Since it is a target for international dignitaries, it is a precious item and must be carefully protected before being sent to the customer.
From this perspective, it is indeed good news, at least it is better than falling into the hands of low-level criminal groups. Otherwise, regardless of life safety, it would be difficult to maintain Xia Wanqing's chastity.
Let’s put it this way.
It was really a "coincidence" and it was not directed at me.
"Let Lord Jin have some snacks, I need to get useful information as soon as possible."
"Understood."
This may be the benefit of working hard.
If ordinary people encounter such a thing, the outcome is unpredictable.
It’s like a wife disappearing from the fitting room.
When her husband found her, it was already several years later, and he was on the stage of a freak show.
Even though he was in a foreign country, through the two-pronged approach of the embassy and Lord Jin, Jiang Chen still got certain information within four hours after receiving Luo Peng's call.
Spridan Federation.
It is the third type of criminal organization that Xu Kuan talks about and is active in Xiang Country.
Because the tourism industry in Xiang Country is developed, they specifically target beautiful women who travel to Xiang Country, mainly Asians.
Don’t think that if you come from a good family, you will have confidence and a sense of security when you go out. In fact, the Spridan Association’s target is women with backgrounds, and they are dismissive of vulgar fans.
Because the targets all have certain identities, they will inevitably cause trouble afterwards, so before taking action, they will make careful plans to minimize hidden dangers.
For example, what happened to Luo Peng and Xia Wanqing.
A living person is suddenly reduced to nothingness, as if he is nothing and has never existed.
Absurd.
But realistic.
This is enough to get a glimpse of their strong foundation in the Xiang Kingdom.
As a big warlord in Burma, Lord Jin has always had contacts with certain forces in the Xiang Kingdom and has established good friendships. The Allied Forces are currently gaining momentum and strength. Logically speaking, his friends in Thailand She should be happy to sell him a favor. However, Lord Jin said with difficulty that he was not absolutely sure that he could be found.
It is easy to imagine how difficult this Spridan Federation is.
Jiang Chen had no reason to think of what Luo Li'er said when he accompanied Sister Pei Yunxi on a trip.
The more you understand this world, the more you will discover.
This world is really dangerous. (End of this chapter)
