Chapter 67 The Mysterious Maintenance Worker

I originally thought that Dazui and I could do the first and third tasks, but the task of finding a ransom was tricky.

Unexpectedly, Tie Jun really threw this hot potato to us.

Moreover, the ransom is 1000 million, not 80 yuan. Dazui and I really can't find it, and we can't even get together to top it up.

Tie Jun sighed and said that he didn't want the two of us to go, but the people at Yang Xin's side hadn't stopped working since last night, and they looked for a whole day, not only investigating all the residents of that unit door , Even the rooftops were not missed, and a blanket search was carried out, but there is still no progress, and the top is chasing closely, so I want to change the group of people to change my luck.

The police, like the military, obey orders.Although Dazui and I had a thousand dislikes in our hearts, we finally bit the bullet and took the job.

We chatted with Tie Jun for a while, and then we left with a mission.

But we were not in a hurry, we found Yang Xin and asked him about the situation.

Yang Xin said that there are still two groups of people staying at the high-rise. One group is guarding the door, interrogating and searching the residents who come in and out, and the other group is still checking floor by floor.

And what he meant was that since the two of us were going, the group that was searched would be replaced.

In fact, this is not the point I want to understand. When I waited for him to finish speaking, I really saw that he didn't talk about my heart, so I simply asked, "Is there any advanced equipment to help us find the ransom?"

Yang Xin was quite funny. After thinking about it, he said, "How about borrowing two police dogs from the Armed Police Force?"

I said to myself, let it go, and I have never heard of any police dog who is born to be a fan of money, and would be so interested in money.

But no matter what I said, I still showed a very confident look on my face, patting my chest for Yang Xin to see.

Dazui and I drove a private car, and finally parked the car at the north gate of the community where the high-rise building was located, because the parking space inside was quite tight, so we walked to the entrance of the unit.

The two groups guarding here received the letter in advance, especially the group responsible for searching for the ransom, and they happily handed over to us.

I took the time to recall the process of chasing the bandit that night.The kid took the ransom, took the elevator, and finally died on the roof.

I think it is impossible for him to send the ransom to any household in such a short period of time.I also thought that there are not only various solar water heaters on the roof of this high-rise, but also several small warehouses and small houses, and there are even a lot of sundries.

The possibility of the ransom money being hidden here is quite high. I discussed it with Dazui. No matter how the original group of people searched, we should start from the rooftop.

My brothers worked very hard, and after a search, it was almost dark.

I don't know how many places I've drilled, and my whole body is quite dirty, my big mouth is even worse, my face is full of black spots, and the tip of my nose is also rubbed with quick ashes.

I was about to give up, so I said to Dazui, "Why don't we brothers go down for a while and have a meal or something?"

The big mouth is even more ruthless, saying that it is best to drink some more wine, and with the strength of the wine, maybe there will be unexpected discoveries after being so crazy.

I didn't refute him, but I thought in my heart, my brothers are looking for something at such a high place, how dare they drink?What if I fall down?
I told him to go down the roof together. Originally we wanted to take the elevator, but who knew that the elevator was not working at this time, and a weird symbol was displayed on the electronic screen at the door.

Dazui recognized it, saying that the elevator was being repaired, maybe it was time for a routine inspection.

But I have a question. Checking the elevator should also be during normal working hours. Don’t the maintenance workers take a break?
I took my mobile phone and called the colleague who was guarding the door, and wanted to ask what was going on?It rang ten times, but no one answered.

I am more confused.Dazui looked at me in a daze, he yawned tiredly, and said don't think about it, the elevator can't be used, so we brothers can just walk up the stairs?

He also took the lead.I followed him.After walking like this for a while, I suddenly had an epiphany, and I pulled my big mouth violently.Dazui almost staggered and fell, he turned to look at me.

At this moment, I guessed where the ransom was, and even under the excitement, I couldn't speak fluently.I emphasized to him, "Well, well..."

In the local dialect of Mozhou, well is a curse word, because the word is two when viewed horizontally and vertically.

Dazui suddenly misunderstood, thought I was scolding him, but he got anxious and retorted, "Quan'er, you are the only one, you, you, you are still four, except for two, you are still two!"

I didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, so I added, "The well! Think about it, can a ransom be hidden in the elevator well?"

Dazui was taken aback for a moment, and then recalled it.

What I think is that the kidnappers got into the elevator with injuries, and during the ride, they removed the top cover of the elevator and threw the ransom money out along the top cover, so that the ransom money fell to the bottom of the elevator shaft.

This can also explain why the police can't receive the signal from the tracker.Because of the layout and materials of the elevator shaft, it is estimated that even X-rays are difficult to penetrate.

But then again, the elevator is under maintenance now, what does that mean?I suspected that the kidnappers had sent someone over, taking the opportunity to take the money away.

I didn't expect my two brothers to be so coincidental, and confront the kidnappers head-on again, but we were not afraid of this, so we took out our guns together and ran up the stairs quickly.

I didn't call the group of colleagues who guarded the door anymore, because I vaguely felt that they might all be taken care of by the kidnappers.

Every time the two of us ran down a floor, we would keep a look at the movement of the elevator.In this way, when I came to the fourth floor, I saw that the elevator was moving, and according to the electronic board display, it was still going up.

I thought to myself what is the situation?After taking the money, the kidnapper wanted to come up and settle Da Zui and me?

Dazui and I just looked at each other and didn't say much.I also decisively went to the elevator door and pressed against the electronic board.

We both backed away together again, raising our guns.I watched helplessly as the number on the electronic board changed to four and the elevator door dinged open.

Both of us know how powerful the kidnappers are, especially when they have liquid bombs. At this moment, we both took another step back.

But let alone the kidnappers in the entire elevator, there was not even a ghost.

I couldn't figure out what was going on here, and as the elevator doors were about to close again, I reached out to block it.

I looked inside, and because I was very targeted, I quickly found that the top of the elevator showed signs of looseness, and there were even half grass leaves hanging from the gaps in the roof.

There is a lawn outside this high-rise. I guess someone had grass leaves on his shoes. When he climbed up, he left this spider trail inadvertently.

Dazui asked me what to do next?YouQi pointed to the elevator and asked if the kidnappers were still in the shaft?
I don't think that's very likely, since the roof has been put back on, and he couldn't do it because he was hiding in the shaft.

I discussed with Dazui that one of us would take the elevator, and the other would run down the stairs, so we could meet on the first floor together.

Dazui offered to run the stairs, but I didn't argue.When the elevator door is closed, the whole elevator goes to the top floor first and starts to run down.

I don't know what's going on with Dazui, and I'm even more worried that he won't meet the kidnappers during this period. In that case, he will be alone and passive.

I also listened carefully, and there was no gunshot, which was indirectly considered a good thing.

When the elevator finally stopped on the first floor and the door opened, I saw a person standing outside.I was so scared that I raised my gun.

But this man has a big mouth.I breathed a sigh of relief and walked out, and then we both ran out of the unit door together.

I looked along the left and right sides, but I didn't find any maintenance workers. Instead, from the right road, an aunt with limited mobility came limping.

I want to ask this aunt if she met a maintenance worker, so that I can decide which direction Dazui and I will chase next.

This aunt is a bit deaf, I asked twice, and the second time I almost yelled.The aunt let out a cry, pointed behind her, and said, hurry up and chase after him. The repairman just left, and if you are lucky, you will be able to catch up.

Dazuizaizi and I ran, and when we turned a corner, I saw a middle-aged man on a bicycle, wearing a yellow overalls, with two bulging bags hanging from the handlebars, and a large suitcase on the back seat.

He muttered aloud, saying that he hadn't seen the kidnapper for a few days, how did he get along so badly?Didn't even have a car, changed to riding a bicycle?

I was also a little confused, but the two of us ignored it and rushed again.After getting close, he yelled loudly and told him to get out of the car with his hands raised high.

He didn't pay attention to us at first, but when Dazui's voice distracted him, he looked back.Dazui was very sensitive, immediately raised the gun and asked him, "Didn't you hear me?"

The man was so frightened that he forgot he was riding a bicycle and was about to run away.As a result, he fell directly from the car after doing this.

I have to say that he was pretty solid, and he didn't fall wrong. After getting up quickly, he raised his hands and stammered, "Brothers, I'm the only one who fixes the toilet. I don't have any money!"

Dazui and I were taken aback.At this time, the bicycle also fell to the ground, and I moved forward and looked through the two pockets and boxes.

I can see clearly that there are small pipe cleaners, toilet pullers, etc., and these tools are very dirty and smelly, and there is a faint smell of feces and urine.

I got a smoky nose.I knew that Dazui and I had gotten into trouble, and the aunt must have misunderstood, thinking that we were looking for someone to repair the toilet.

I was so angry that I didn't know what to say.Dazui explained, saying that we are the police, and we are on the way to solve the case.

The master nodded, but he was still a little shocked.

After a few seconds of delay, I asked the master again, "Have you seen the maintenance man who repaired the elevator just now?"

The master said yes, and pointed in another direction, saying that he seemed to be carrying a bag of equipment and heading for the north gate.

Dazui and I left the old master behind and chased after him again.

When the two of us rushed to the north gate, I found a small truck was starting up, with the words "elevator maintenance" written on its body.

So far, I'm not sure if this driver is the kidnapper we're looking for, but I looked around and there are no other suspicious people.

The pickup truck drove past us, and when it passed us, the driver turned his head and looked at us, showing a sneer at us.

Dazui yelled to chase, and our private car was parked not far away, so we hurried there again.

Seeing what Dazui meant, I just got in the car and started the ignition, but I was influenced by my subconscious mind, and I always felt that something was wrong!
