"What's your lover's name?"
"Chen Ziyan."
"Contact information?"
“1327XXXXX”
Ma Yongfeng glanced at his watch. "Officers, we're almost done with the statements, right? We should go to the bank to withdraw the money."
"Ten million?"
"Yes."
"So much cash, what did the kidnappers want?"
"I found a van to store the money, but the kidnappers wanted no serial numbers or markings, or they'll kill the hostages," Ma Yongfeng said.
"Do you need help from the police?"
"No, it's too eye-catching when we withdraw the money. If the suspect sees us, my mother might be in danger." Ma Yongfeng refused.
"After you withdraw the money, where do you plan to transport it?"
Ma Yongfeng thought for a moment. "To the company, it's safer there."
"Contact the police if you need help," Han Bin said.
"Thank you."
Ma Yongfeng then stood up and left.
"Brother Bin, ten million is not a small amount, are we really not going to do anything?" Li Hui asked, confused.
"Contact Captain Zheng and ask him to send two unfamiliar faces to protect us in secret," Han Bin said.
"Let's go get Chen Ziyan to give us a statement and see if Ma Yongfeng is telling the truth," Li Hui suggested.
Han Bin contacted Chen Ziyan, but it was not convenient to meet at the company, so Chen Ziyan felt guilty and decided to meet at home, so she went to the police station.
In Team Two's office.
Not long after Han Bin and Han Bin returned to the police station, Chen Ziyan also arrived at Yu Hua Branch.
Chen Ziyan was in her early thirties. She was tall and had a dignified appearance. She wasn't very beautiful, but she had a gentle and quiet temperament.
"Chen Ziyan?"
"Yes."
"Sit down, I'll give you a statement."
Li Hui turned on the law enforcement recorder and let him take the statement.
Han Bin leaned on the table and lit a cigarette. Tian Li had gone back to her room to catch up on her sleep. A cigarette wouldn't affect her.
"Name, gender, age, place of origin …" Li Hui routinely asked.
"My name is Chen Ziyan, 32 years old, female, local …"
"Do you know Ma Yongfeng?"
"Yes."
"What's your relationship?"
"Colleagues."
Li Hui stared at the man for a while. "Where were you the night before yesterday?"
"At home."
"Who else is there besides you?"
"Another friend?"
"Name?"
Chen Ziyan bit her lip and hesitated for a while. "Ma Yongfeng."
"Where do you live?"
"West Wind Regency."
"Specific address?"
"1702, Unit 3, Building 2."
"When did Ma Yongfeng leave?"
"At around nine o 'clock in the morning, he took a call and left."
"During this period, did he leave your house?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure," Li Hui said.
"Chen Ziyan, you'll have to bear legal responsibility for providing a false statement," Han Bin reminded her.
"Everything I've said is true, not a single word of falsehood." Chen Ziyan answered and revealed a worried expression. "Officers, I hope you won't tell anyone else about this, or else … you should understand."
"You have a husband, why would you still hook up with Ma Yongfeng? How can you face your husband?" Li Hui could not help but want to educate her.
"I know it's wrong, but people only live this life. I just want to be with the person I love. Decades later, when my life is about to pass away, will right and wrong still matter?" Chen Ziyan retorted.
Li Hui was stunned. He did not expect this woman to be so confident.
"Everyone makes mistakes, and it's not scary. What's scary is not realizing that you're making a mistake. I don't know if you and Ma Yongfeng really love each other, and I don't have the right to comment on your relationship, but it's definitely not something to be proud of. If you're really in love with Ma Yongfeng, you can choose to divorce your husband. There's no need to lie to him all the time and put a hat on his head. Most men can't tolerate this kind of thing," Han Bin said seriously.
Chen Ziyan lowered her head. "Give me some time. I'll take care of it."
Han Bin did not say anything else. This was Chen Ziyan's business, and it had nothing to do with him.
"Officers, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first." Chen Ziyan stood up and said goodbye.
After watching Chen Ziyan leave, Li Hui slammed the table and said, "What do you think this is? You're even more confident than I am."
Han Bin patted his shoulder and smiled. "Let's go. Check the surveillance at West Wind Grand Court."
…
There were two sides to the story.
Tian Li took a nap and ate something. She arrived at the police station around two in the afternoon.
After meeting up with Sun Xiaopeng, she went to visit Thousand Gold Doors.
Thousand Gold Doors occupied a large area. There was a four-story office building, which was also the headquarters of Thousand Gold Doors. The company's executives were all working there.
A kidnapping case was different from other cases. She couldn't do a large scale visit. Tian Li made an appointment with Thousand Gold Doors' director, Ren Yaming, to find out more about the company's debt.
Previously, when Gao Xiaoyun was kidnapped, Tian Li had gone to Ren Yaming to find out more about the situation. Ren Yaming's office was on the third floor of the office building. It was very easy to find.
After the two sides met, they sat down.
Ren Yaming was around forty years old. He was tall and had dark skin. He poured a cup of tea for the two of them. "Officer Tian, did you come to the company today for Gao Xiaoyun's kidnapping?"
Tian Li shook her head. "We want to know more about Shen Nianrou's situation."
"Chairman?" Ren Yaming was a bit surprised. "Why do you want to know about our chairman's situation?"
"Did you see Shen Nianrou yesterday?"
"No." Ren Yaming replied. He then asked, "Why?"
"You're not surprised that she didn't come to the company?" Tian Li asked.
"Chairman has already gradually handed over the company's business to Chairman Ma. Right now, she's basically only in charge of finance. We don't see each other every day. Is there a problem?"
"Shen Nianrou was kidnapped." Tian Li said.
"What?! Did you say that the chairman was also kidnapped? "Ren Yaming stood up with a look of surprise.
"She was kidnapped around nine in the morning yesterday." Tian Li said.
"This … Are the kidnappers trying to make life difficult for our company? First they kidnapped our employees, and now they kidnapped the chairman. Just how much hatred do they have? "Ren Yaming said.
"The kidnappers' real target is Shen Nianrou. The kidnapping of Gao Xiaoyun was a mistake." Tian Li said.
"So they're here for the chairman." Ren Yaming sighed.
"Director Ren, right now Gao Xiaoyun and Shen Nianrou's situation is very dangerous. We need your help." Tian Li solemnly said.
"No problem. If there's anything I can help with, just tell me."
"Does Shen Nianrou have any enemies?"
"Chairman is very easy to get along with. He's very approachable. He's never had any conflicts with anyone."
"Does your company have any conflicts with debt?" Tian Li asked.
"I'm mainly in charge of production. As for debt, it's handled by Chairman and General Manager. You should ask Chairman Ma. He's clearer than me." Ren Yaming said.
Ma Yongfeng's suspicions had not been cleared yet, so Tian Li naturally wouldn't ask him about the situation. She changed the topic.
"Chairman Ma's side is handled by my colleague. This case is very urgent. We need to ask around and gather clues so that we can save the hostages as soon as possible."
"In our industry, debt is a very normal thing. Customers owe us money, and our suppliers owe us money. The chain of capital goes back and forth like this. Most people can understand it, but there are some people who are quite fierce when it comes to debt."
"Who is it?" Tian Li flipped open her notebook.
"Miao Xiujie. He's the owner of Repair Door Wood Company. He's also our company's main wood supplier. He provides the raw materials for our wooden doors. Normally, we would settle the accounts half a year or once a year. A month ago, he came to our company. At that time, he brought quite a few people and caused quite a ruckus." Ren Yaming recalled.
Tian Li recorded it in her notebook and asked, "How much money does your company owe him?"
Ren Yaming hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not too sure about the exact number, but it should be two to three million."
