"Old man, can you take us there? I'll give you how much," Pei Donglai begged hurriedly.
"I'll take you there for free," the old man agreed readily.
Pei Donglai drove the old man and Julie to Goose City. On the way, Pei Donglai called Zeng Yanan because he was afraid of an accident.
Under the leadership of the old man, everyone came to Eshan Mountain in Echeng City. They climbed to the top of the mountain and the three of them searched separately.
Half an hour later, "here," the old man shouted.
Pei Donglai rushed over, "It should be here. Look, the soil here has signs of being loosened," the old man said.
When Pei Donglai saw it, it was exactly the same as in the video. He cried sadly and finally found it. But after so long, Zhang Yutong must have passed away.
Pei Donglai shed tears and quickly dug up the soil with his hands. Julie and the old man felt very distressed when they saw Pei Donglai digging desperately, his fingers were broken, and the blood mixed with the soil.
The two of them also helped Pei Donglai dig. The three of them were so tired that they were sweating profusely. The soil was dug deeper and deeper. Pei Donglai's eyes were blurred. He could not imagine what it was like to see the dead Zhang Yutong.
"Everyone, come and help." Zeng Yanan arrived with his police comrades.
As all the fresh soil was dug up, Zhang Yutong's body was still not found.
"President Pei, President Pei, stop digging. It proves that they did not bury Miss Zhang alive. She should still be alive," Julie said excitedly, pulling Pei Donglai.
"Yes, Yutong is not dead, hahaha", Pei Donglai laughed excitedly.
In the video, Zhang Yutong was clearly buried alive, so how could there be no one inside? Did she run away quietly? Impossible. Her hands and feet were tied. There was only one possibility. She was rescued. If she was rescued, why didn't she contact Pei Donglai?
The old man said: "Basically no one comes to the top of Eshan Mountain."
Could it be that one of the kidnappers saved her?
"Officer Zeng, do you have the names of the kidnappers?" Pei Donglai asked.
"Yes, go back to the bureau."
Everyone returned to Jiangcheng Police Station. According to Lin Xiaojie's explanation, there were three kidnappers: Zhang Bing, Li Gui, and Long Qi.
"Officer Zeng, can you find out their social background?" Pei Donglai wanted to use the social background of these people to see what jobs these people had in the past and see if he could find any clues from it.
"These people used to be security guards at Jiangdong Bank. Li Gui and Long Qi are outsiders, and Zhang Bing is from Echeng."
"Where did these people work before coming to Jiangdong Bank? Have you found out?"
"Li Gui and Long Qi couldn't find it. Zhang Bing worked as a security guard at Jiangcheng Hotel for a period of time."
"It was Zhang Bing who saved Zhang Yutong," Pei Donglai said confidently.
"We went to Zhang Bing's home and asked his family, but they didn't know his whereabouts."
"I'll give it a try." Pei Donglai stood up and hurried to Goose City. "Wait, I'll go with you." Zeng Yanan caught up.
The two came to Zhang Bing's home in Echeng. His family was in a rural area 20 kilometers away from downtown Echeng. The family's economic conditions were very poor. It could be said that he was a disciple of Xibi.
There are only an old mother and a younger sister in the family. The younger sister is still in school. The old mother is frail and sick and cannot speak clearly.
After questioning, both mother and daughter said they did not know where Zhang Bing was, and the matter reached a deadlock again.
After asking around the village, the villagers also said that they had not seen Zhang Bing recently.
"President Pei, go back."
"Officer Zeng, you drive my car back first, and I'll look for you later. I feel that Zhang Bing won't go far." Pei Donglai analyzed that Zhang Bing shouldn't go far. He couldn't tie Zhang Yutong and run around. This would What was discovered must be not far away.
But there was no one in front of him who was familiar with this place, and it was difficult to find him. Pei Donglai thought of Li Cheng. He was from Echeng, so he might be familiar with this place.
After the call was dialed, Li Cheng and Li Xin came to Zhangjiacun. "Brother Pei, what's wrong with Yutong?" Li Xin asked hurriedly.
Pei Donglai told the two people what happened. Li Cheng said: "Brother Pei, don't panic. I know a friend in Zhangjiacun. He likes to go up the mountain to catch birds. I asked him to come over."
After more than 10 minutes, a young man came over and said, "Brother Cheng, why did you come to our poor place? Are you tired of staying in the county town?"
"Zhang Mu, I came to you with something important. If you get it done, you will be rewarded. Listen carefully. Have you seen Zhang Bing recently?"
"Oh, I haven't seen this cousin for a long time, but I heard that he seems to have become rich recently. His sister's living expenses at school have increased several times, haha."
"What did he do to get rich?"
"I don't know about that. Can't you just ask her sister first?"
"Let's go find her sister," Pei Donglai said.
"Brother Cheng, if you go and ask, she may not necessarily say that if I go, it will be possible. Haha, is there any reward?"
Pei Donglai took out two thousand yuan in cash and gave it to Zhang Mu, "This is an advance payment. There will be more after it is settled."
"This big brother is still happy." Zhang Mu led everyone to Zhang Bing's house. "You guys wait outside, I'll ask her to come out."
After a while, Zhang Mu came out with Zhang Bing's sister, "Where is your brother?" Zhang Mu asked.
"I don't know", Zhang Yu's answer was the same as before.
"Xiaoyu, these are the police. If you are dishonest, I will arrest you and put you in jail," Zhang Mu threatened.
Zhang Yu had met Zeng Yanan and the others before, so he naturally didn't panic and kept saying he didn't know.
"Okay, Xiaoyu, I know you had a boyfriend at school and gave him money. If your brother finds out, it would be weird if he doesn't smash your legs. If you don't tell me, I'll talk to you." If you publicize your love affairs everywhere, it will always reach your brother’s ears, haha.”
Zhang Mu pretended to turn around and leave. After everyone walked a few steps, Zhang Yu trotted over and grabbed Zhang Mu, "Brother Mu, come here."
The two walked to a corner and muttered for a while. Zhang Mu came over and said to Pei Dong, "In the cave."
"Quickly lead the way."
"Ten thousand dollars."
"Deal, hurry up."
Zeng Yanan hurriedly called the Echeng police.
Zhang Mu took everyone to the cave. This was a natural cave. The entrance was covered with thorns. It was difficult to tell from the outside that there was a cave here. It was very hidden. It was pitch black inside and you couldn't see your fingers.
Even Zhang Mu, who loves to wander around, has never gone in. It is very humid inside, so everyone uses the weak light of their mobile phones to move forward with difficulty.
"How many exits are there in this cave?" Pei Donglai asked.
"It's my first time here too, brother," Zhang Mu replied.
After walking for more than 10 meters, a fork appeared with two roads. Pei Donglai used hand gestures to divide the people into two teams. The inside was getting narrower and narrower, and the road was getting slippery. Everyone felt that it was difficult to breathe.
Pei Donglai became more and more worried. Zhang Yutong was pregnant. Can adults and children endure being tied to such a place?
