Chapter 630 Motive
It is obvious what Wu Shaobo's intention is in sending such pictures at this time.

This also indirectly reflects that he has indeed been lurking in the temple for a long time. In fact, every move of the Chu family is under his surveillance, so he can accurately seize today's opportunity.

While waiting for the traffic light, Su Chengyi took the phone, took a look at it, and exited the MMS interface without hesitation.

Although it was just a photo with unclear pixels, Su Chengyi was able to restore almost everything completely in his mind.

How she took the wishing ribbon with a smile on her face, how she wrote the wish on it stroke by stroke, and with what kind of pious heart did she hang the ribbon on the wishing tree.

This century-old tree has carried millions of wishes. The girl stood on tiptoe and hung her only selfish wish to the highest point she could reach.

The breeze blew through the mountains and the sound of chanting came in the distance. She made a sincere wish as always, hoping that the boy she liked would be safe and sound every day.

No matter what effect Wu Shaobo hoped for when he sent this picture, he succeeded.

Because Su Chengyi realized a problem belatedly, that is, Chu Qingmian has actually been very worried about him, and this worry has obviously affected her vigilance about her own safety.

When they went to Iceland some time ago, Chu Qingmian always seemed a little worried. He would stare at him in a daze from time to time and occasionally sigh.

This is totally unlike the style of the energetic Miss Chu. But when others ask her why she sighs, she will say "Ah?" in confusion, and say:
"Did I just sigh? Ugh, I didn't notice."

This state is obviously extremely wrong, I should have noticed it a long time ago.

Su Chengyi stared straight at the busy traffic ahead, forcing away the regret that was rising in his heart. Being disturbed at this moment was exactly what Wu Shaobo wanted.

Chu Qingmian is not as she appears to be, a heartless, naive young lady. She is very capable in many aspects.

Therefore, compared to Chu Yuanjiang who started celebrating his victory too early, she could more keenly feel that things were not that simple, and the Hou family would definitely not be willing to be suppressed to death like this.

However, she was more worried about Su Chengyi than her own safety.

Compared to her, the risks and possible blows of taking action against Su Chengyi are lighter. The Hou family has always been good at taking action from this angle, making people feel like being stared at by a wild wolf in the suburbs, and they really can't sleep well.

In addition, Chu Qingmian has been secretly tracking down Wu Shaobo. Whether from his life or his criminal habits, he is definitely not a man who can shoot wherever he points.

Su Chengyi independently investigated the old case many years ago and the new case of the fraud gang last year, and dug up many clues, which obviously made Wu Shaobo pay great attention to and interest in him.

Adding to that the relationship between Su Chengyi and her, no matter how you look at it, his situation is not much safer than her own.

It is precisely because of these considerations that she is often absent-minded, giving criminals lurking in the dark an opportunity to take advantage.

The more he understood this, the more Su Chengyi's heart sank.

The rumbling engine of the Porsche attracted the attention of passers-by.

The two people in the front passenger seat and the back seat sensed the silence from the driver's seat and did not speak either. For a moment, the only sound was the sharp sound of the wind.

However, the reasons for the silence are not similar.

Chen Jinzhi looked at the scenery passing by outside the car window, not knowing what she was thinking. For a girl like her, no one could guess what she was thinking.

But it’s easy to guess what Xiao Zheng is thinking. He now feels like he can’t breathe at all, and his head is dizzy.

No, no buddy???
Well, the current situation can be summarized very simply. Miss Chu has been kidnapped by a vicious criminal. The criminal is a psychopath. He doesn't want money or anything else. He just wants Su Chengyi to exchange Chen Jinzhi for her, and only one of them can survive.

Xiao Zheng knew that the situation was serious and there were some things he shouldn't think about. The young master, who had already stepped on the accelerator, had no time to think about it.
Isn't the Shura Field exploding?! Why are the two people in the front row so calm?!

Xiao Zheng grabbed his messy hair fiercely and felt that the whole world was in chaos.

Su Chengyi's lack of reaction could be attributed to the urgency of the situation, and he had no time to think about it.

So, what about Chen Jinzhi?
She was suddenly involved in such an incident and learned that her boyfriend had another girl who was so important that he could exchange his life for her without hesitation. In the end, she voluntarily sat in the passenger seat as a bargaining chip, ready to face the completely unknown and dangerous situation that was about to come.

Why is she so calm?

This fucking world is really messed up.

Xiao Zheng cursed in his heart, and slapped himself with the palm of his hand, causing the two people in the front row to look back.

".Nothing, I just think reality is too magical. This is like a police and gangster movie or a spy movie."

Xiao Zheng let out a long sigh.

In his unbeaten career, he finally encountered a situation where he was at a loss. Of course, this question was really beyond the scope of the topic.

He was just in the entertainment industry and had only seen scammers, but had never seen a real robber with real guns and knives.

Su Chengyi glanced at the navigation route and then said:
"The Chu family sent me Wu Shaobo's personal information. Chu Qingmian has been looking him up privately and has made some progress. Take a look and read out the key points."

"well."

Xiao Zheng responded hurriedly and opened his mobile phone to check the file that Su Chengyi had just sent.

Uncle Gao sent the file attached to a map. As an experienced person, he knew that if the kidnapping case reached the stage of face-to-face negotiations with the robbers, it would be very important to know his personal life and information in advance.

The so-called knowing oneself and the enemy will never end in a hundred battles.

Xiao Zheng clicked on the document, which was personal information organized like a file, with Wu Shaobo's photo attached to the first page.

Zheng Guang, who had seen countless people, judged at first sight that this person was definitely not a good person.

The typical three white eyes mean that the person has a vicious temper and a heart as fierce as a tiger or a wolf. He has a thin face and prominent eye sockets, which makes people feel extremely uneasy when looking into their eyes.

Many suspects in major cases have such prominent facial features.

Continuing to flip down, you will see part of Wu Shaobo's life that was investigated.

His parents died early, and he was sent to an orphanage by his uncle and aunt when he was young. He escaped when he was just thirteen years old and began to wander. During this period, he was caught and educated several times for stealing and robbing, and some records were left.

His wandering route was very long, almost spanning two provinces. He finally settled down and gathered a group of thugs. He became a leader with the stealing skills he learned, but he was sent to jail again before he reached adulthood.

After he was released, he attempted to smuggle abroad to "make money" through the connections he made in the detention center, but he was deceived into working for a criminal gang in northern Myanmar.

Wu Shaobo was a ruthless person who knew how to keep a low profile. He was the smartest among the people who were deceived, so he soon got the opportunity to be "promoted" and once again rose from the bottom to the position of second in command.

The criminal gangs in this area are not comparable to the gang he led before. Wu Shaobo learned all kinds of dirty tricks here, and finally stabbed the gang in the back at the critical moment and fled back to the country alone.

It is because of this experience that Chu Yuanjiang described him as "a man who crawled out of a pile of graves."

Just like the reptiles in the sewer, no one who is targeted by him will have a good ending. No matter how many layers of defense measures are set up, when you wake up in the middle of the night, you will subconsciously worry that there may be a pair of eyes peeping outside the cat's eye, waiting for an opportunity.

"Counter-reconnaissance, firearms, disguises, criminal methods, elimination of evidence. In short, he has all the criminal traits you can think of." Xiao Zheng swallowed, his tone heavy and uneasy.

"Master, this is just a domestic enhanced version of Jack the Ripper, do you understand?"

"Ah."

Su Chengyi nodded, expressionless.

Combining Wu Shaobo's personal experience and the information about the Hou family he just mentioned on the phone, it can be inferred that his motive for committing the crime has indeed changed.

He and the Hou family do have a relationship of mutual interest. The reason why he is still willing to help the Hou family at this point in time is only because once the Hou family falls, his umbrella of protection will be gone. It is only a matter of time before he is caught for all the crimes he committed in the past.

It is true that kidnapping Chu Qingmian was probably the Hou family's request, but contacting Su Chengyi and proposing the so-called exchange game must have been his own sudden decision.

The reason why Wu Shaobo chose such a high-risk kidnapping method was probably because he was prepared to exchange one life for another. From the very beginning, he had no intention of letting Chu Qingmian go back alive.

Once such a dangerous criminal with extremely strong personal criminal ability has such an idea, it is almost impossible for anyone to escape this disaster. After all, even a prime minister was not an exception who was lucky enough to escape.

Therefore, it was just a coincidence that we happened to be experiencing this ancestor worship process.

The person who made Wu Shaobo change his mind was Su Chengyi. After learning about their relationship, Wu Shaobo's purpose of kidnapping Chu Qingmian completely changed.

Although the situation could not be said to have improved much, this change gave Chu Qingmian hope of survival.

After realizing this, Su Chengyi calmed down again.

At least this is not the worst situation yet, there must be a way to survive.

"So, how did you get involved with this kind of person, young master?"

Xiao Zheng's expression turned green and ugly, as if he had eaten a fly.

He really couldn't figure out how many identities this young man had. On the surface, he was the most hardworking law student in the academic world, but secretly he was the young boss of a game studio and the most popular music producer at the moment.

In addition, he has also been busy in his love life, dating a rich lady and a beautiful lady from a wealthy family, as well as a popular celebrity.

Even so, he still found time to play the role of a famous detective and engage in intrigue and struggle with such vicious criminals.

Playing Earth Online like this really seems like cheating.

So, the current situation is probably that God is taking action to punish the cheating players.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zheng sighed, and felt that the further the wheels rolled forward, the heavier the fog shrouded the few people became.

"It's a long story."

Su Chengyi shook his head and didn't intend to discuss this topic in depth.

Because to be honest, all this is just a coincidence.

Who would have thought that our neighbor, Grandma Xu, who lived next door, was sent to a remote Jushan sanatorium because of Alzheimer's disease by her children who wanted to save money on her treatment.

There, Granny Xu meets Xia Yu, a survivor of a family massacre many years ago. Because of her fuzzy memory, she tells Xia Yu that she can come to her house more often to visit Granny Xu. As a result, Xia Yu sneaks out of the nursing home and is hunted down by neighbors as a food thief.

Coincidentally, she knocked on Su Chengyi's door for help, and the two officially met.

After that, because of Lin Tong's siblings, Su Chengyi met the enthusiastic aunt at the Olive District Laundry and learned that her son Zhou Yan was missing.

It just so happened that, because he wanted to investigate the incident of Chen Jinzhi being followed, Su Chengyi accidentally entered the party held by the Hou family to welcome Wu Shaobo who was released from prison while tracking down He Wufei. He Wufei sensed something was wrong and ran away early, leaving Su Chengyi empty-handed, but he also happened to meet Zhou Yan who disappeared afterwards.

Moreover, Zhou Yan was indeed captured by Wu Shaobo's criminal gang, but at Su Chengyi's request, Chu Yuanjiang intervened and rescued him, and sent him to Jushan Sanatorium for recuperation.

The development of things here has formed a perfect closed loop, with each link interconnected and logically connected.

Now that he had re-drawn this large circle of relationships in his mind, Su Chengyi found it a little unbelievable for a moment.

If I were to tell Xiao Zheng all these complicated and intertwined things from the beginning, I don’t know how long it would take.

What is the difference between the real world and "The Truman Show"? Some plots are beyond the imagination of even the most imaginative screenwriters in the world.

Su Chengyi gripped the steering wheel tightly and frowned.

Could it be that all these plot developments are just to put him in this dilemma?

"Once we get to the scenic spot, what are you going to do?"

Xiao Zheng scratched the leather seat with his fingernails and asked carefully.

"Wu Shaobo mentioned the exchange, which must require a face-to-face exchange process. He deliberately did not reveal too much information and only asked me to contact him after arriving at the scenic spot. I think he would wait until then to tell me what to do next, so as to avoid me making preparations in advance."

Su Chengyi looked at the increasingly shorter route and time on the navigation and said in a deep voice.

"In this case, why don't we call the police."

Xiao Zheng said with a sad face.

"No."

Chen Jinzhi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. Her gaze was still fixed on the window. There was rarely any smile in her peach blossom eyes, and she looked very serious.

"At least not now."

Chen Jinzhi paused for a moment before continuing:
"Wu Shaobo has been lurking near the scenic spot for so long that he must have been prepared to make such a request.

If we choose to call the police, he will find out immediately, and who knows what actions he will take to threaten personal safety at that time.

Although it sounds passive to say this, the best way right now is to cooperate with him and then react accordingly when the face-to-face encounter comes."

Having said that, perhaps sensing that the atmosphere in the carriage was too solemn and uneasy, Chen Jinzhi sighed softly and continued:

"At least for now, it seems that he has no accomplices. Judging from the numbers, we have the advantage."

As soon as she said this, Xiao Zheng straightened his back and felt a sense of collective honor.

But thinking of the horrific files he had just read, he softened again and pointed at himself hesitantly:
"Me, me?"
