Shu Xiulan left Uncle Andao's residence, her mind was also in chaos, she drove forward slowly in the car.She was still thinking hard, where had she seen that middle-aged man with such a kind face?She made all kinds of ideas, but still couldn't get the point. Shu Xiulan stood still in front of a window. She didn't care about what was displayed in the window of that store. She was just thinking about it, first Hun Sen, and then Uncle Andao.The enemy's arrangements are so thorough, so when will it be your turn? At this time, Shu Xiulan was definitely not afraid that the enemy would come to her, but what she was afraid of was that the enemy would never appear again.

If the person who presides over all these conspiracies no longer appears, then she really can't do anything, because she knows nothing about the enemy, and it can be said that she has no clues. Naturally, in fact, she can't say that there is no clue at all. She has a videotape she found from Uncle Andao. On that videotape, there is the middle-aged man who kidnapped Uncle Andao. However, she couldn't figure out who the middle-aged man was.She was thinking, or she should give the video tape to the police, so that the police can find out who the middle-aged man is in this video tape, it is much better than thinking aimlessly up.

When Shu Xiulan thought of this, she subconsciously grabbed her handbag a little tighter. The video tape was in her handbag. She turned around, stopped a street car, and went straight to the police station. In Shu Xiulan's life, although there are several events that are full of legends, she has fought against many criminals, but she is not very familiar with the police. When she arrived at the police station, she first met with the police officer on duty, and said that she would meet with a senior officer. This senior police officer happened to be related to the investigation of the crash of Universe 1, because she had important clues to provide.

After hearing her complaint, the police officer on duty asked her name again, then smiled and said, "Miss Shu, are you Hun Sen's friend?"The police are looking for you, you can meet our Deputy Commissioner immediately. The purpose of Shu Xiulan's coming to the police station was to meet a senior official, but when she heard that she could meet the deputy chief, she couldn't help being stunned, and said: Deputy chief?I mean, the police officers who are in charge of the actual work can do it, don't have to alert such high-ranking officials! The police officer on duty had already pressed a button, and he said to Shu Xiulan, "Our deputy director is also the leader of the confidential work investigation team. It is most appropriate for you to meet him."

As he spoke, he said to the intercom that had already pressed the button: Deputy Director Chen, Ms. Shu Xiulan is here, and she said that she has important clues to provide about the crash of Universe 1. There was a moment of silence on the intercom before a deep man's voice said: Please come in, I will meet her in the third corridor, and I will meet her in room seventeen, and ask someone to guide her. The police officer on duty agreed and turned off the walkie-talkie. Shu Xiulan felt a little puzzled and said: Corridor No. 3, room No. 17? The police officer on duty smiled and said, "Room No. 17 is a secret meeting room with the most perfect soundproofing equipment.

Shu Xiulan raised her eyebrows and said, "I think the police should try to get as close as possible to the citizens. Isn't that too mysterious?" The police officer on duty didn't say anything, a policewoman came over and said, "Miss Shu, please follow me." Shu Xiulan followed the policewoman and went into the elevator. The elevator went down three floors. The policewoman and Shu Xiulan walked out of the elevator. They walked in a brightly lit corridor and waited until they turned a corner. At that moment, the policewoman stood still and said, "Please go forward alone, Room 17 has a sign on the door!"

As the policewoman spoke, she backed away. Shu Xiulan took a few steps forward, and she found that she was the only one in the entire corridor. On both sides of the corridor, there were rooms with closed doors, and the doors were all nailed with copper numbers. Shu Xiulan kept walking forward, and in her heart, a very strange feeling arose uncontrollably. She felt that she was not in a police organization that seeks the safety of the residents of the city, but rather like It is in the headquarters of an extremely mysterious large organization. Shu Xiulan waved her hand involuntarily. Her actions were actually unconscious. She just wanted to change her mind and told herself that this city has a population of over one million and various criminals. , The task of the police is so heavy, and it seems to be a normal thing to be a little mysterious.

While thinking, Shu Xiulan walked forward. She stopped in front of Room 17. As soon as she stopped, the door opened automatically. At the same time, she heard the voice of the deputy director, saying: Please come in, Miss Shu! Shu Xiulan walked in, and to her surprise, when she walked in, the room was pitch black and she couldn't see anything. Shu Xiulan took a slow breath, she stood not far from the door, did not go any further, she said: Deputy Director, I think, in the dark, it is difficult for me to tell the purpose of looking for you. Just as Shu Xiulan's voice fell silent, light began to appear on the wall of the room. At the beginning of the light, it was quite dim, and gradually became brighter.

It is a very soft light, which makes people feel very comfortable. At this time, Shu Xiulan also saw everything in the room.The furnishings in the room are very simple. There is a person sitting on a high-backed chair. Although the person is facing Shu Xiulan with the back of the chair, Shu Xiulan can naturally know that he is the second most important person in the local police, the deputy director and The leader of the confidential work investigation team. Deputy Director Chen didn't turn around right away, he said: Sorry, Miss Shu, the darkness just now is because we are conducting an infrared inspection on you, which is a necessary step.

When Deputy Director Chen spoke up to this point, he turned the high-back swivel chair, turned around, and faced Shu Xiulan. A professional smile appeared on his face, and he said again: Miss Shu, what important clues did you bring to the police? The moment Deputy Director Chen turned around and faced Shu Xiulan, Shu Xiulan was stunned! In an instant, it was as if the top of her head had been hit by a heavy hammer of dozens of pounds!Shu Xiulan herself felt strange that she could still stand upright under such a shock. However, although she stood without falling, her complexion must have become extremely ugly at that moment.

Shu Xiulan is not the type of person who can't control her emotions. On the contrary, she can control her emotions very well and maintain her composure in many unexpected situations. However, what happened in Room 17 was so unexpected that Shu Xiulan couldn't maintain her composure even for an instant. The obvious change in her expression caused Deputy Director Chen to raise his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?"Miss Shu is not feeling well? Shu Xiulan had already decided what to do in less than a second.She told herself: You must remain calm, you must remain extremely calm, as if nothing had happened. In fact, in the current situation, it is extremely difficult to maintain calm. Because, when Deputy Director Chen turned around, he had a face-to-face meeting with Shu Xiulan, and Shu Xiulan recognized him as the middle-aged man on that videotape!The person who kidnapped Uncle Andao! And in Shu Xiulan's handbag, was hiding the video tape! In Shu Xiulan's heart, although she told herself that she must remain calm, her thoughts were still extremely chaotic. For a while, she couldn't find a central point. Her first thought was that maybe, Deputy Chief Chen was just similar to the middle-aged man who kidnapped Uncle Andao.However, she immediately overturned her idea.Because she played the video tape five or six times before leaving Uncle Andao's residence, she was already very familiar with the middle-aged man's demeanor and movements. Only in this way can she be more sure that the middle-aged man is the deputy director in front of her, the leader of the confidential work investigation team, and an extremely important senior member of the local police. That is really impossible, if she didn't see it with her own eyes, but when she was thinking hard about who the middle-aged man was, someone told her that the middle-aged man had such an important task in the local police If you are a big shot, then she will definitely not believe it. But now, what is in front of you is the truth, the truth is cruel, you can't help but believe it! Shu Xiulan's thoughts turned and her mind was in a mess, but she still had enough tact to answer Deputy Director Chen's question immediately, she said: "It's nothing, maybe I'm a little too nervous." Deputy Director Chen pointed to a chair and said: Please sit down, we can talk slowly. What Shu Xiulan was thinking at this time was not to sit down and have a slow talk with Deputy Chief Chen, she just wanted to leave immediately. But she immediately thought that when Deputy Director Chen took Uncle Andao away, he didn't know that Uncle Andao turned on the video recorder just before he fell into a coma. Naturally, he didn't know that there was that video tape in his handbag. This video tape could prove that he was an extremely dangerous criminal hiding in the police. Since he didn't know anything, then at least for now he was in no danger: if he showed panic and eagerness to leave, it would only make him suspicious. Shu Xiulan knew that what she was facing was an extremely serious matter, which was related to the safety of the whole city, if she handled it improperly, the consequences would be disastrous. Therefore, Shu Xiulan took a slow breath and sat down, pretending to be very anxious, and said: Deputy Director, Hun Sen suddenly disappeared! The deputy director frowned slightly, and said: Yes, we are looking for him everywhere, but we can't find him. Shu Xiulan said again: Uncle Andao is also missing! The deputy director seemed to be completely ignorant of this matter. He even said that he didn't know who Uncle Andao was. He was a little surprised and said: Uncle Andao?Who is he?What does it have to do with Hun Sen's disappearance? In Shu Xiulan's heart, she couldn't help secretly admiring Deputy Director Chen's acting skills.At this time, she had enough time to calm down and sort out her messy thoughts, and her expression also completely returned to normal.She said: Me, Hun Sen and Uncle Andao, we are good friends, we often get together and discuss some things. The deputy director asked casually, as if not interested: For example, what? At this moment, Shu Xiulan already thought of why she felt familiar with the middle-aged man when she saw that middle-aged man appearing on the TV screen, but she couldn't remember why it was him. She met Deputy Director Chen once, in a public place.And when she was imagining who the middle-aged man was, she only searched among the criminals she was familiar with, and would never connect a senior police officer with that middle-aged man. At this moment, Shu Xiulan couldn't help but regret that she hadn't thought of this. If she had remembered earlier that the middle-aged man who took Uncle Andao away was actually Deputy Director Chen, then she would just have to bring that videotape to see the director. Well, Deputy Director Chen's disguise will be exposed immediately, and all problems will become extremely simple. But now, how long does she have to delay before she can leave Room 17 without arousing Deputy Director Chen's suspicion? A criminal who can lurk in the police organization for a long time until he holds such a high position must be an extremely shrewd and capable person, as long as he is not careful, he will show his feet. In Shu Xiulan's life, she has never been more nervous than this moment.Her hands were sweating slightly, and she said: For example, there are many interesting questions, including the manufacture and test flight of Universe 1. Uncle Andao owns a precision instrument company that has manufactured several precision instruments used in Universe 1. parts.I just came from him, he is gone, and in his studio, there is the smell of anesthesia, which is the same as when Hun Sen disappeared. Shu Xiulan decided to tell the truth as much as possible, because only by telling the truth, the other party would not be able to detect any flaws. She knew that although the atmosphere in Room 17 seemed calm, in fact, a battle of wits between life and death was unfolding. This is not only about her own life and death, but also the life and death of the whole city's public security. Deputy Director Chen nodded and said, "Thank you very much for providing these clues to the police. Judging from the disappearance of the two of them, your situation is obviously very dangerous. Do you want the police to send someone to protect you?" Shu Xiulan shook her head and said: That's unnecessary, I think I can still take care of myself. Deputy Director Chen smiled and said: Miss, don't be too confident, if you have no other opinions Shu Xiulan immediately stood up and said: "It's nothing, can I leave here now?" Deputy Director Chen put his hand on the table in front of him and said: Of course, but before I leave, I have one more question. Shu Xiulan was already thinking about what would be the most direct and appropriate way for her to seek the director and expose Deputy Director Chen's identity as a criminal after she left here. When she heard Deputy Director Chen say that she had a question to ask herself, she felt a chill in her heart, and said: Excuse me! Deputy Director Chen fixed Shu Xiulan's eyes. He seemed to be thinking about how to word his question.At that moment, Shu Xiulan's heart was beating wildly. She already felt that something was wrong, but she still waited patiently. On the surface, she was not in a hurry. Deputy Director Chen finally opened his mouth and said, "Miss Shu, when you came in, our computer inspection system checked you, but you didn't know it. Objects that react magnetically, what is that, please? These few words, from Deputy Director Chen's mouth, really made Shu Xiulan's heart jump wildly! If it was someone else, maybe they would immediately exclaim. The thing that aroused a strong magnetic response was, of course, the video tape, and the relationship of this video tape was so important. But Shu Xiulan immediately made a decision, and her decision was: tell the truth.So she forced a smile and said: Oh, is that so?I think it might be because I have a magnetic videotape in my handbag. Deputy Director Chen immediately said: Can I take a look? Without even thinking about it, Shu Xiulan opened her handbag and handed the video tape to Deputy Director Chen. The reason she did it without thinking about it was because on a videotape, nothing could be seen.Video tapes are different from films, which must undergo a series of magnetic restoration operations before they can display everything recorded on the TV screen. Therefore, even if Deputy Director Chen had the video tape in his hand, he would not know that in that video tape, there were recorded facts that could completely reveal his criminal face. However, Shu Xiulan only expected this, and what happened next was far beyond her expectation! Deputy Director Chen took the video tape, tossed it upwards in his hands, and said, "It's very interesting, may I know what's recorded in it?" When Shu Xiulan handed over the video tape, she had already thought about the answer, so she immediately said: I designed a few new clothes, and several models performed in the new clothes. Deputy Director Chen said: When was it recorded? Shu Xiulan smiled and said: Today. When Deputy Director Chen asked Shu Xiulan when he recorded the video tape, he had already handed the video tape to Shu Xiulan, it seemed that he was no longer interested in it. At that time, Shu Xiulan also breathed a sigh of relief. But just as Shu Xiulan uttered these two words today, Deputy Director Chen's hand suddenly retracted. After retracting his hand, he fixed his gaze on Shu Xiulan, but he didn't speak.Shu Xiulan only felt that the muscles on her face became very stiff. She knew that she had made a mistake in her answer, and this mistake made Deputy Director Chen suspicious of herself. But what mistake did he make?But she really couldn't figure it out, and replied that the video tape of Deputy Director Chen was recorded today, so what's wrong with that? Naturally, Shu Xiulan didn't know that when her fashion company opened the door this morning, those two customers who came in to pick and choose, those two obnoxious fat women, were already very concerned about everything that happened in the fashion company today. made a detailed report. Those who received their reports would naturally know that today, in the fashion company, there are no models wearing specially designed new clothes, and there is no video recording. This is just an extremely slight flaw, but for a criminal who is extremely sensitive and superhuman, this extremely slight flaw is enough to arouse his suspicion. Deputy Director Chen smiled and said, "Miss Shu, could you please leave this video tape with me and return it to you later, okay?" Shu Xiulan's heart jumped wildly again, and her voice couldn't help becoming a little hurried. She forced a smile and said, "That's not very good. Before the new clothes I designed are made public, I don't want anyone to see them." The way people see them. Deputy Director Chen laughed and said, "Miss Shu, I have nothing to do with the fashion industry. I will never reveal your designs. What else do you have to worry about?" Shu Xiulan was extremely anxious. The contents of this video tape must never be seen by Deputy Director Chen.She hurriedly said: I'm really sorry, there is still a little private secret in it, which must not be known to others, deputy director, please return it to me. Shu Xiulan knew that unless Deputy Director Chen was willing to tear off his mask, legally speaking, he could not insist on keeping the video tape. Deputy Director Chen looked at the video tape in his hand, and a very sinister smile appeared on his face, and he finally said: "Okay, that's your secret, I have no right to ask it!" As he spoke, he returned the videotape to Shu Xiulan. When Shu Xiulan took the videotape and put it in her handbag, she undoubtedly felt a big stone in her heart. She turned around and walked towards the door. Deputy Director Chen pressed a button, and the door moved open. After Shu Xiulan walked out, the door closed again immediately. As soon as Shu Xiulan left Room 17, she hurried forward. She hoped to meet any police officers immediately. As soon as she met a police officer, she immediately asked to see the chief. However, it seems that not everyone can come to that corridor, and it is so quiet that there is no one there. Shu Xiulan hurried forward, she was thinking, the biggest difficulty has been overcome, she has made such an astonishing discovery, the whole case can be ended, However, Shu Xiulan didn't know that as soon as she walked away and the door of Room 17 was closed, Deputy Director Chen had already opened a drawer. In that drawer, there was a small radio communication device. Yi, he pressed a button and said only one sentence: the fifth step in the implementation of the plan. Others don't know what the fifth step of the plan is, but Deputy Director Chen himself knows it very well. After he said that sentence, he leaned back, and the back of the chair automatically reclined to make him sit more comfortably. He was thinking that until now, the first four steps of the plan had been perfectly realized. The first four steps of the whole plan, the first is to prevent Hun Sen from arriving at the airport in time; As for the fifth step, it is naturally to deal with Shu Xiulan! If it wasn't for the video tape that made him suspicious, the fifth step would not have been implemented immediately, at least, it would not have been implemented before Shu Xiulan left the police station. However, at this time, he became suspicious. He was an extremely experienced police officer who had dealt with various crimes. He was the only one like this, so when he started committing crimes, it was particularly scary. Naturally, it is impossible for him to know about that video tape, which can make all his plans go to waste, but since he became suspicious, he decided that there must be something weird in it. Since there is something weird, then he will start in advance. He put his hands behind his head, the fifth step will be completed smoothly, there is no problem.Then, he was going to release Hong Sen. Before releasing Hong Sen, he had to let him know that the lives of Uncle Andao and Shu Xiulan were under control. If he didn't obey, they would die. Then, the test flight of another Cosmos 1 will be carried out. Hun Sen didn't want Uncle Andao and Shu Xiulan to die, so he had to obediently drive Cosmos 1 to the north to the designated place. As soon as Universe 1 landed at the designated place, he would have a deposit of five million dollars in a bank in Switzerland. Then, there was only one last step left. One last step: he would quietly resign from the police force and go to South America, enjoying all the luxuries that five million dollars would bring him! Deputy Director Chen thought of this and closed his eyes. Shu Xiulan knew the true face of Deputy Director Chen as soon as she saw him, but Shu Xiulan made a mistake. Shu Xiulan thought that Deputy Chief Chen had been a criminal who was ambushing inside the police station, but it was not. It was only a month ago that Deputy Chief Chen started committing crimes. Until then, he had been a dedicated police officer, and he had run this horribly secretive criminal scheme simply because the country that demanded Cosmos One paid too much. There are very few people in the world who can withstand such a temptation, not to mention that after careful consideration, Deputy Director Chen believes that once he starts to implement his plan, it will be foolproof. Because of this, Deputy Chief Chen's criminal assistants are not very many, otherwise, he would not have to do it himself to kidnap Uncle Andao. Deputy Chief Chen's plan was indeed very precise. From the very beginning, he specially left the ghost hand Yang Dou's fingerprints on the door of the big truck, so that people would think that all the crimes were committed by this famous criminal. did.In fact, those two fingerprints were only left on the door of the truck by Deputy Chief Chen after he found the ghost hand Yang Dou's fingerprints in the file and copied them with soft plastic. The ghost hand Yang Dou is naturally a famous criminal, but at this time, this famous criminal is not in this city at all, and he has no idea that he is connected with the accident of Universe One. After Deputy Director Chen closed his eyes, he didn't feel particularly nervous, because considering his current status, it was very convenient to preside over a crime!
