Su Baiqing cast a sidelong glance at him and said calmly," He's 35 to 45 years old. He has a stubborn personality, and he's moderately tall and fat. Because of his stubborn personality and his willingness to compete, he had no friends ……"     

When Pei Qize heard her words, his face became even more embarrassed. He hurriedly interrupted," Stop talking. Wang Chen he wouldn't treat me like this. We' ve been friends for more than ten years. How could he kidnap my son for a mere two million dollars?"     

"He used to mortgage his house with a loan of 2 million from the bank."     

Pei Qize face was as gray as death. Immediately, like a frosted eggplant, he slumped to the ground. He was mumbling about Wang Chen good and bad things.     

When he calmed down, he asked," What should we do now?"     

Pei Qize was soaked to the skin. At this moment, half of his hair was stuck to his body, and his hair was not short. He looked like a homeless man on the street.     

"How can we give the two million to him?" She asked.     

"I left an address on the letter. I checked the address and it was Zhongshan Road. It was recently demolished and no one lived there."     

"Prepare two million. He will contact you in the next time." She put her phone into her pocket and smiled.     

Both the aunt and the Wang Chen were involved in the crime of a kidnapping that they knew. At this moment, the most anxious person should be Wang Chen. If he couldn't get two million, the only house would be auctioned by the bank.     

His wife and child had already left. His only hope lay on Pei Qize child.     

Pei Qize's expression was gloomy, and the complicated emotions in his eyes could not be concealed.     

Before he could make a call at noon, Pei Qize went back to his room to change.     

Su Baiqing sat on the sofa and played with his phone to pass the time.     

After a short while Pei Qize came out of the room and changed into a gray casual outfit. The stubble on his chin had been cleaned up. He had lost the vicissitudes of life and had become more shrewd and wise.     

Su Baiqing suddenly thought of a sentence. Sure enough, people were wearing clothes.     

Just after midnight, Pei Qize phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.     

"Hold on." She whispered.     

Pei Qize nodded and answered," Who are you?"     

The other end of the phone was noisy for a moment before a hoarse voice rang out." Your son is in my hands. Prepare two million. Give it to me before eight o'clock. Otherwise, your son..." He suddenly laughed with a sinister tone.     

Pei Qize's expression changed drastically as he hurriedly said," Alright, you get excited first. I' ll definitely give you two million." "But you also know that two million is not a small sum. It's also during the Spring Festival. I need some time to prepare."     

Su Baiqing remembered the number and sent it to the Lin Liang.     

"I gave you time to prepare as soon as possible. You know the consequences."     

The call was hung up.     

Lin Liang text message was sent. The number was encrypted and no location or personal information could be found.     

Su Baiqing frowned.     

"He told me to send two million by express mail at eight." Pei Qize handed the phone to Su Baiqing and said in a low voice.     

Her slender and fair fingers tapped on the armrest without a single sound, and a pair of large clear eyes flashed with a trace of interest.     

Kidnapping with all sorts of loopholes was becoming more and more interesting.     

At 8 pm, the doorbell rang.     

Pei Qize glanced at the Su Baiqing and went to open the door.     

The courier wore a hat and lowered his head as he took out the delivery note.     

Pei Qize followed the information and handed the box to the courier.     

When the courier left, Pei Qize asked anxiously," He just left like that?" "What about my son?"     

"Wait." Su Baiqing replied casually.     

"It's already past eight and the money has been taken out. My son has n' t returned yet. How do you want me to wait?" Pei Qize asked with a gloomy expression," That courier must have something to do with Wang Chen. He should have taken him down just now."     

Su Baiqing chuckled and asked," What if I catch him? Where can your son find out?"     

Although he knew that the courier had an inseparable relationship with the kidnapping, there was no direct evidence to prove it. If Pei Qize son were to be ripped off during this period, who could bear the responsibility?     

Pei Qize's chest fell together and his expression became even more embarrassed." Once I hand over the money, my son's situation will become more dangerous."     

He had already gotten what he wanted, so his son was no longer of any use to him.     

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Qize phone rang again.     

It was a text message from an unfamiliar number. The content was: Zhongshan Road.     

Su Baiqing forehead furrowed his brows and suddenly thought of something. He hurriedly called," Keep an eye on the courier."     

Before Pei Qize could react, Su Baiqing had already rushed out of the door.     

------     

It was already evening. Apart from the snow that had been cleared in time, the remaining bricks and tiles left behind from the demolition and the ruins on the road.     

Even on New Year's Day, the construction team was busy working without holidays.     

Su Baiqing searching place after place, he still could not find the child's figure.     

She was running in the snow, panting heavily as she moved. He ran out of the house in a hurry. His hat was too big for him to wear, and his face turned pale from the cold.     

The warm breath in his mouth turned into strands of white smoke when it met the cold temperature.     

Pei Qize followed closely behind, and his expression became increasingly gloomy. She grumbled softly," Where did Ann put it?" "I've already given him the two million he wanted. If my son is to lose anything, I will definitely not let him go."     

Su Baiqing held his hands on his knees and his clear and bright eyes were covered in smoke.     

This place had been demolished for a while, so where would Wang Chen place the child?     

Why must it be before 8 o'clock?     

Where was the child placed at 8 o'clock? Was there any connection between the two?     

The distant bell suddenly rang with a solemn and distant sound.     

Su Baiqing straightened up and looked over.     

In the distance, a bell tower pierced into the clouds. The bell rang out from there.     

She glanced at the time. It was exactly nine o'clock.     

According to common sense, the bell would only ring at midnight. How could it...     

She asked," What day is today?"     

Su Baiqing sudden question surprised Pei Qize a little. Then, he replied," Second year of the new year!"     

It wasn't a special day. What was the meaning of ringing the bell?     

Her face was pale, and her mind was in chaos.     

The child was somewhere in the Zhongshan Road, but the more time was needed, the more confused she became.     

The other party had to Pei Qize send two million by express delivery to avoid having a positive exchange with Pei Qize. But why did he have to trade at eight o'clock and why did the child be placed in the Zhongshan Road?     

Su Baiqing came to a sudden realization. His face was pale, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. Before he could explain, he hurriedly said," Let the construction team stop the demolition immediately. Don't let the forklift run."     

"The forklift is driverless. It won't stop until the set time."
