The kidnapping was discovered by Xu Xiaodong. Old Man Lu's private detective turned his house upside down in order to find Sun Shenyou. He even went to his wife and wife's family to abduct the lady.
When Chen s.h.i.+ and Lin Dongxue arrived, Xu Xiaodong had just held down a private detective and both of them had slightly swollen faces, indicating they struggled a bit.
The private detective wore a long trench coat, a hat, and was squatting on the ground with his hands in cuffs. His eyes were uneasy. Chen s.h.i.+ asked, ”Who told you to do this? Old Man Lu's instructions?”
He raised his face halfway and said, ”No one asked us. We did it ourselves!”
When Lin Dongxue saw him being so arrogant, she suddenly became angry. ”Have you ever investigated a murder case? Except for investigating affairs, you haven't investigated anything else, right?!”
The private detective stopped talking, and Chen s.h.i.+ asked, ”Where are they?”
”Sent to the hospital.”
”Let's go and see!”
Xu Xiaodong sent the private detective to the bureau while Chen s.h.i.+ and Lin Dongxue went to the hospital. The abducted woman was fine. She was resting in bed with an IV drip, and a little boy was crying in front of the bed.
When a stranger came in, the woman panicked and the little boy stretched out his hands to protect his mother, his eyes full of alertness.
Lin Dongxue showed her badge. ”Don't be afraid, child, we're not bad people. We're the police. Let us understand the situation here. We want to catch the bad people who kidnapped your mother.”
The woman said weakly, ”Feng Feng, you go out for a while. Mum needs to speak to the police.”
Chen s.h.i.+ and Lin Dongxue each took a chair out at the front of the bed. Chen s.h.i.+ asked, ”Are you okay?”
”I'm okay. Those beasts... I said I didn't know where my husband was and they tortured me. They stepped on my fingers with leather shoes and force fed me wasabi. It was so bad.”
Chen s.h.i.+ glanced at the woman's fingers wrapped in gauze and couldn't bear it.
”We will definitely punish them severely and ask them to compensate for all medical expenses,” Lin Dongxue said.
”Thank you... Did Shenyou kill someone and run away?”
”Who said that?”
”The bad guys said that the man he killed seemed to be Master Lu's eldest son. Lu Qixing is so powerful that he would definitely not rest easy!”
Chen s.h.i.+ asked, ”When was the last time you saw your husband?”
The woman recalled and said, ”Six months ago!”
”Six months ago?” Chen s.h.i.+ was surprised.
”Comrade Police, let me tell you the truth. Our husband-wife relations.h.i.+p is almost only in name only. Because he did this job, he's stuck behind his master's b.u.t.tocks. Of course, the income is high. In the past few years, he bought three sets of houses for his family. But what is the use of that? I'm just like a widow! At first, he was promoted from a clerk to a.s.sistant to the president. It was still quite beautiful. He said that he was flying to wealth. If I had known, I'd have gotten him to quit!
”He doesn't even come back a few times a year. One time, he was finally able to take a day off. President Lu went to the Philippines to take part in an event. When he got home, his chair was not even warmed up yet when President Lu called to say that he did not bring a dental scaler, so he had to take it over by plane. What kind of job is that? I'm not afraid to tell you but we haven't had s.e.x for a long time. I know he's a man in his thirties. He's always out playing with President Lu and he has a high income. f.u.c.k, there must be a woman outside. I advised him to come back and see his son, but he said that he was busy with his career and s.h.i.+t. Wasn't he just a nanny for the rich?
”The significance of his existence for me may only be the cost of living sent by him every month. In order to raise my son, I can only bear it helplessly. When I heard that President Lu was killed, I called him but the phone didn't work. I didn't know what was going on and I didn't dare to call the police. Later, the Lu family sent someone to ask for trouble, asking this and that, and causing trouble at home. It terrified my son so we hid at my parent's house. Who knew that when I went out to buy groceries yesterday, I would be dragged into the car by a group of men who covered my mouth with a handkerchief? I was frightened. I really thought I wouldn't come back alive...”
With that said, the woman began bawling her eyes out.
Chen s.h.i.+ was fortunate that he didn't accept Old Man Lu's invitation at the dinner table last night. This kind of rich but restricted life was a kind of torture for him.
