Chapter 523 Kidnapping
Liang Xi sat next to Xiaobai: "Check Serra's entry and exit records."

Xiaobai operated fiercely like a tiger, and said, "Not found."

Liang Xi said, "The morning before yesterday."

Xiaobai said: "There is no entry and exit record for Sera in the past two months."

Liang Xidao: "Call out the city map, centering on Sera's residence."

Bobby said, "Selah's address is..."

After Xiaobai is set, zoom the camera to the location of Sera's residence.

Liang Xi asked Bobby, "Which direction is Selah going?"

Bobby was taken aback: "I don't know, why do you ask this question?"

Liang Xi said: "Wherever she walks, it means which direction she is going." His own answer was so idiotic.

Bobby shrugged his shoulders: "I don't remember. I didn't watch the surveillance video. It was the police officer who saw the description given to me by the surveillance. He asked about my relationship with Serra, and finally told me that Serra was around six o'clock yesterday morning. Going out with a big suitcase and driving away."

Liang Xi said to Xiaobai: "Turn down the monitoring."

Xiaobai determines a camera based on the location of the road section, and searches the database for the video captured by this camera around [-] o'clock yesterday morning according to the camera number.The camera is located about ten meters from Sierra's house and is a public and road safety monitor.At [-]:[-] a.m., Sierra appeared on surveillance from her home, wearing the same old outfit: a hooded sweater, with one hand in its pocket and the other dragging a suitcase.She opened the trunk and put the suitcase in, then turned back to the driver's seat, got in the car, turned on the ignition, drove, turned around on the spot, and drove north.

Xiaobai became more and more capable, and from the split screen, he retrieved the monitoring of Selah's return from Pete's car last night, and Selah's car was parked on the side of the road at that time.

"enlarge."

After zooming in, the picture became blurred. Xiaobai cleared it according to the software Selah gave him. Liang Xi could see it clearly and said, "He may not be Selah." He was referring to the person carrying the suitcase.

Liang Xi pointed and said: "When he took the suitcase off the curb, he didn't directly lift the suitcase lever, but put his hand on the handle of the suitcase, and put the suitcase on the road. It means that the suitcase is heavy. Let's see how he put the suitcase Put the suitcase in the trunk. Although he used two hands, he lifted the suitcase to the same height as the trunk with one hand. It shows that he is very confident in his strength. One possibility is that the suitcase is not heavy. It’s unnecessary. One possibility is that Sera is born with supernatural power.”

Liang Xi told Xiaobai to fast-forward and play slowly. This is the scene of Sera opening the door. Liang Xi said: "He took out the key and pressed the door button. Serra's car does not need to take the key. Just bring the key to the door and press the key. The unlock button on the door handle can open the door. One may be my memory is wrong, and the other may be that Sierra changed the way to open the door."

Then the car turned around, Liang Xi said: "I always thought that Sierra was a novice driver, because she likes to keep the steering wheel on the spot. This driver is not. Looking at the width of the road, a novice driver would never dare to speed up and turn Go over. You see, when you turn the corner, you are already very close to the opposite curb."

Liang Xi said: "The last point: Sierra is left-handed, and the person under surveillance is right-handed."

Since the surveillance was at a high place, Sera wore a hood and lowered his head slightly, and the surveillance did not capture the front of Serra.The first time Liang Xi watched the surveillance, he found the left-handed flaw. After two rounds of watching, he found more flaws, which made him convinced that the person in the surveillance was not Serra.Since it is not Serra who wears Serra's clothes and drives Serra's car, it means that Serra has something wrong.

……

Liu Zhen took a group of people to cooperate with Liang Xi and Bobby to Serra's residence. It is estimated that the firepower of a group of people plus 6 bodyguards should be enough.Even so, Roger told the other agents to be ready to act at any time.One of the detectives asked a very philosophical question: Did Serra's disappearance lead to Liang Xi, or did Serra become a missing person as soon as Liang Xi came?This question is logically untenable and can only be a philosophical question, a theological question.

……

The community where Sierra lives is a Jinling community, and the law and order are quite good. Even so, some people have installed alarms from the security company.Sierra, like her neighbors, has a basic siren installed.Anyone who enters the room through the door must enter the correct password within a certain period of time, such as 10 seconds or 30 seconds. Once the timeout alarm sounds, the security company personnel will call immediately.If authorized, security companies can activate the cameras in the house after the alarm goes off.

The basic security also includes door and window security. Sensors are installed at the back door and windows on the first and second floors. If there is an object blocking the sensor, the homeowner will be alerted, and the security company will also contact the homeowner.This is partly because user actions often have false positives.

According to the security company's door opening records, it can be found that Sierra returned to his residence at 10 pm the day before yesterday, which is consistent with Pete's testimony.At about five o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday, Serra's house opened again, and she set a 30-second password.Someone enters Serra's house and enters the correct password in 10 seconds.At six o'clock the morning before yesterday, the door of Sera's house was opened again, and the sensor judged that she was leaving home, so there was no need to enter the password.

Since there are sensors inside and outside the gate, why not just set up monitoring?That's the privacy issue.If you want to be safer, you have to hand over your privacy to security companies, and bet that they won't spy on your privacy.

Judging from the records, Serra did not leave the house after returning home the day before yesterday until [-] am the day before yesterday, which means that the person who entered Serra's house at [-] am must not be Serra.

Sierra Diamond Company is a partner of the Clement Group, and the residence is also provided by the group, with housekeeping services from its subsidiary every week.In addition, Sierra lives alone, the house is very neat and simple.There is no strong evidence, and the case cannot be filed for the time being. Liang Xi cameo to investigate the scene and found no violent intrusion. It is speculated that the criminals used drugs in their sleep to attack Sierra.

It is basically certain that the gangsters kidnapped Serra and transported Serra away in a suitcase.There is no trace of theft, and no trace of bullying Sera. It is basically determined to be kidnapping.Serra's chances of survival are high.Of course, Serra had been missing for two days, and if Serra had no use for the gangsters, Serra might have been killed.The reason for the kidnapping of Sierra is believed to be the identity of a hacker targeting Sierra.Bobby thinks that it is not ruled out that there is a tendency to fall in love with Sela, and finally make radical behaviors.Liang Xi called up Sierra's photo from his mobile phone and looked at it in all directions for a while, and told Bobby clearly that there was no such possibility.

Sierra was pretty, but only pretty.I wear loose clothes every day, walk with my head bowed, and I can't see my figure or measurements.It is difficult for such a girl to attract perverts, except Bobby... Liang Xi took a deep look at Bobby, probably not.

……

At six o'clock in the morning, there were very few vehicles on the road, and the pursuit vehicle drove to a community five kilometers away through surveillance.This community is an open apartment community, not a villa community, and there are many blind spots in monitoring.The last surveillance video shows Sierra's car entering the underground parking lot of Apartment 8.

Although no case was filed, due to the request of the Office of Counter-Terrorism, the Criminal Investigation Department of the Southern District dispatched Baker to coordinate the investigation.Isha was due to give birth this month. Baker and Liang Xi boasted on the phone: twins, a boy and a girl, I have already thought about the names, what do you think of the names of so-and-so and so-and-so?
Liang Xi told Baker to go secretly to apartment No. 8 under the disguise of his identity, carefully avoid the cameras, and collect evidence as secretly as possible.

Baker arrived at Apartment No. 8 with the secondary car key obtained by Serra's family, and found the Serra car abandoned by the criminals and parked in the underground parking space.The physical evidence dispatched a person to collect evidence, and the person who collected the evidence told Baker that no suspicious fingerprints or strong clues were found on the driver's seat.

After coming and going, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still no news.Bobby notified Chris, who arrived at a park parking lot not far from Sierra's residence.A large RV parked in the parking lot is Liang Xi's temporary case handling location.But there was no policeman in front of or behind the house.

After Liang Xi explained the situation, Chris was very anxious: Are you a detective?Why are you still sitting here motionless?It just so happened that Liu Zhen just came out of the bathroom and greeted Chris unhurriedly, making Chris think that the group was just sitting here waiting for news.Just when Chris wanted to leave with an excuse and used his own strength to find Sierra, Pete opened the back door of the RV and said, "He brought it."

Two counterterrorism office agents in plain clothes stuffed a handcuffed man in a black cloth bag into the trailer.

Liu Zhen grabbed the suspect, dried his hands on the suspect, and then pushed the suspect to sit on the chair.Liu Zhen took off the suspect's hood and greeted, "Hi! Philip."

Philip is 38 years old this year. After retiring from the army, he became a flour criminal at the instigation of his cousin and was arrested twice by Liu Zhen. Of the 25 years since he retired at the age of 13, eight of them have been spent in prison.

"Beautiful police officer, you will never forget me no matter where you go." Philip said with a playful smile and aggrieved face, "I didn't do anything today. I have already washed my hands and changed my ways."

Liu Zhen knew that Philip was telling the truth. She had introduced Philip to Liang Xi before.Three years ago, Philip's former female boss retired from the military. After the two met by chance, they were out of control. The female boss opened a private detective agency based on her and Philip's expertise.

Liang Xi took out his mobile phone and showed Philip a photo of Serra: "Do you know him? Answer honestly, otherwise you will accidentally break every finger."

Philip originally planned to discuss the law with Liu Zhen, but before getting in the car, he saw the bodyguards and luxury cars outside, and knew that it was not just a legal issue, but also important figures involved.

Real Liu was near the back door, and seemed to leave the RV at any moment.After so many years of being in the world, Philip immediately said, "Don't worry, don't worry, what do you call me?"

Bobby said, "Bobby Clement."

That's right, someone I can't afford to offend!The luxury car was two meters high, and the head of the bodyguard who was standing took out two stacks of banknotes from his pocket and threw them in front of Philip.

Philip smiled and said, "Ask, if you ask a question, I will answer it. I will never lie." When he spoke, he hooked the banknote with his toe.

Liang Xi raised the phone in his hand.

Philip said: "A few days ago, a client asked me to keep an eye on her, saying that she was his girlfriend and went to London to start a company by herself. Let me stay near her residence to see what time she came home and if she had sex with others. The man went home. I asked if I needed to follow and take photos. The other party said no, he just wanted to verify whether what she told me was true or not."

The entrustment was received at ten o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday. After the other party explained the situation, Philip's girlfriend offered a price of [-] pounds.Unexpectedly, the other party called [-] pounds and explained on the phone that this was the commission fee.If it is done, there are other businesses.Philip's girlfriend wondered, whether it is too much to pay [-] yuan for only one day of stalking, or squatting and stalking?The client told Philip's girlfriend that [-] pounds was nothing to him, and he was more interested in the next cooperation.

At around ten o'clock that night, Philip called the customer and explained that a man in a suit was taking him home. The man in the suit didn't stay and drove away.The client asked Philip to follow until three o'clock in the morning. The client explained that his girlfriend likes to go out at night to see if anyone comes to pick her up.For [-] pounds, Philip drank two cups of coffee and stared at three o'clock without blinking. After informing the client, the client was satisfied with this and asked him to go back to rest, because the client would still contact their detective agency tomorrow.

The next day, at 4 o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday, the detective agency received a call from a client, asking them to go to a hotel, open a room on the 5th or 24th floor, and take pictures of the street of the hotel 24 hours a day, taking one picture every half hour.The daily remuneration is twenty thousand pounds.Requirements, upload the photos to the designated mailbox immediately after taking them. The 40-hour work system, the two of them can change shifts and shifts. If there is no photo uploaded for more than [-] minutes, the client will deduct a certain amount of remuneration as appropriate. They are temporarily booked for three days and paid [-] pounds to the detective agency first.

Poppy asked, "What street?"

Liang Xi had a headache, rubbed his forehead with one hand, and waved with the other: "The street is meaningless, is your girlfriend taking pictures now?"

"Yes."

Liang Xi gestured to the head of the bodyguard, and the head of the bodyguard came over and took out two stacks of pounds and put them on the table. Liang Xi said, "Go back to work as usual, don't ask, don't tell. Do you understand?"

Philip nodded again and again: "Understood, understood."

Liang Xi said: "I want to find you as a client. I don't have any hope, but I still want to ask, can you help?"

Poppy added: "Money is not an issue."

Philip thought for a while, and said, "Does it count if someone is watching and following us?"

Someone installed a tracker on Philip and his wife's car, but this person underestimated Philip.The evening before yesterday, Philip bought food and went back to the hotel to tell his girlfriend about it.Philip left the Watch Hotel at eight o'clock in the evening and drove to the Seven Sails Hotel.A suspicious woman in her twenties entered the Seven Sails Hotel one minute later than Philip, and she was waiting in the lobby.At 1:2, Philip left the Seven Sails Hotel with a young woman talking and laughing.The suspicious woman left the hotel after [-] minutes. Her behavior has been filmed in the hotel lobby. Philip's girlfriend's friend is the hotel lobby manager.

Philip and the two analyzed for a long time but still could not understand the woman's intentions. At nine o'clock yesterday morning, the client sent another [-] pounds to the account.Last night, under the arrangement of his wife, Philip went to the Seven Sails Hotel to date his sister again, and found a suspicious woman again.At nine o'clock this morning, the customer continued to call [-].

"Did you drive your own car to the supermarket?"

Philip replied: "I dare not drive. Besides, the supermarket is one kilometer away from the monitoring point, and I walk."

"If you help us, you will get a lot of money." Liang Xi said, "Sister, get someone to take him back to the supermarket." Philip was brought here while shopping in the supermarket.

Liu Zhen uncuffed the handcuffs and sent Philip to the back door. The chief bodyguard asked, "Do you need to threaten?"

Philip immediately said: "No need. Will we be in danger?"

"No." Liang Xi replied: "I hope you are in danger, so that we have a chance."
