Chapter 266: Chapter 169: Rescue Her Immediately
"Ranran, why are you here too?" Tian Xin remembered, "I was knocked out with chloroform, and then I don’t remember anything. Ranran, do you think it was done by the person who killed those four men at Jiaoyang Club?"
"It’s possible!" Bei Ran reached out to hug her, "Did you see who kidnapped you?"
"No..." Tian Xin recalled, "The person attacked me from behind, and was very fast and accurate, knocked me out and took me away..."
Bei Ran was very relieved, at least Tian Xin was still alive, so she would definitely not let anything happen to Tian Xin.
"Where are we now?" Tian Xin asked again, "Why is it so dark? How did you come here?"
"I was at home thinking about this case, then I received your message, saying there was new information about the case of the four men at Jiaoyang Club, so I came here. Little did I know, when I arrived, I found you hanging from a tree. I quickly climbed up the tree to rescue you, and then we both fell into this dark hole," Bei Ran said.
Tian Xin angrily kicked the wall: "It must have been the person who knocked me out who sent that, Ranran, that person deliberately lured you here... What if something happened to you? It would be different for me, I’m all alone, but not you, you still have Dayu and Xiaoyu, and you have Gu Qingchen..."
"Don’t panic!" Bei Ran reassured her, "Since the person deliberately lured me here, he won’t fail to show up. Tian Xin, you are my best friend, I won’t let anything happen to you."
Sea View Villa.
Zheng Tong sat alone on the sofa. After Duan Feixun left, she aimlessly flipped through TV channels, telling herself that she had always been alone.
So, his departure won’t make her sad.
She didn’t even know what was being played on the TV, having slept the entire afternoon and still feeling a bit sleepy, she dozed off in a daze.
When she woke up again, she smelled a terrible medicinal odor. Opening her eyes, it was Duan Feixun who had returned.
He had the medicine in his hands and was applying it to her injured ankle.
Zheng Tong frowned, surprised that after she threw the medicine in the trash, he had gone and bought more to apply on her again.
Seeing her awake, Duan Feixun said, "Don’t throw it in the trash again, or see how I will deal with you!"
Zheng Tong’s lips moved, but before she could speak, he added, "You’re not allowed to refuse the medicine. If you find the smell disgusting, I’ll apply it for you."
Zheng Tong didn’t respond, a woman in her thirties finding spring had come a bit late.
But still, spring had come!
Watching Duan Feixun concentrate on applying the medicine, she was suddenly startled by his upward glance. She turned her head, pretending to be indifferent and not looking at him.
"Um... be gentle..." Seeing that the man’s hand was a bit heavy, Zheng Tong quickly said.
Duan Feixun’s lips curved into a mischievous smile, he watched her, silent and smiling.
Zheng Tong’s face turned red; being husband and wife, some things were understood without words.
Zheng Tong turned her head away, ignoring him, such a relentless man!
At the construction site.
Tang Baijin was recently busy with the progress of the construction project, wearing a safety helmet, he still hadn’t left the site.
Perhaps, staying busy could help forget the unpleasantness in life, thus, he preferred to spend all his time working.
Just then, as he was about to light a cigarette, he received a text message. The message read as follows:
Baijin, it’s Bei Ran, I forgot my phone at home, I am using Tian Xin’s phone, come to this place immediately...
Tang Baijin immediately rushed to the location specified in the message, he took off his safety helmet and didn’t even have time to change his clothes before driving over...
Gu Qingchen drove the car to the downstairs of Bei Ran’s house, then made a call to the house helper, "Ms. Wu, Bei Ran and I will not be coming back for dinner tonight, take good care of the children."
"Yes, sir," Ms. Wu answered the call, watching the children playing with toys.
Gu Qingchen directly headed to Bei Ran’s house, he knocked on the door, but no one answered.
He took out the keys, thankfully he was prepared and had "stolen" a key to her house.
However, once Gu Qingchen entered, he saw a cup of tea that hadn’t been finished in the living room. He reached out to check the temperature; it was still slightly warm.
Bei Ran was not at home, but why was her phone on the table?
Gu Qingchen picked up her phone and unlocked the screen to see this message.
From Tian Xin: I’ve made new progress on the case concerning four men at Jiaoyang Club, come over immediately...
Gu Qingchen saw that the message was sent at about 6:30 in the evening, whereas now it was just after seven. Judging by the cooling tea, the timing of Bei Ran’s departure matched with when she received the message from Tian Xin.
Gu Qingchen took Bei Ran’s phone, immediately went downstairs, and drove off.
At the foot of the mountain, Gu Qingchen saw a familiar car; it was Tang Baijin’s!
Gu Qingchen noticed his car was also heading up the mountain. In fact, very few people go to this mountain, especially now that it’s past seven in the evening. The mountain is pitch black; nobody would go up there to enjoy the scenery at this hour.
Gu Qingchen overtook and got in front of Tang Baijin. At this moment, Tang Baijin also saw that it was Gu Qingchen who overtook him, and he stuck his head out of the window.
"What are you going up the mountain for?" Gu Qingchen asked him.
Tang Baijin obviously disliked Gu Qingchen and said coldly, "It’s none of your business!"
Gu Qingchen stared at him: "Did you receive a message from Tian Xin?"
Tang Baijin remained very indifferent: "None of your business!"
At that moment, Gu Qingchen handed Tang Baijin Bei Ran’s phone, "This is the message Bei Ran received from Tian Xin. I suspect someone captured Tian Xin and deliberately lured Bei Ran there, and you are the next victim!"
Upon seeing the message on the phone, Tang Baijin scoffed, "Regardless, I must go there. Gu Qingchen, if you’re too scared, that’s your problem! Move your car aside!"
"I need your cooperation!" Gu Qingchen said seriously. How could Gu Qingchen stay aloof if something happened to Bei Ran?
Tang Baijin then drove up, and Gu Qingchen followed him.
The two didn’t see any trace of Bei Ran or Tian Xin.
Gu Qingchen looked around; it was so dark that he couldn’t see his hand in front of his face.
He took a flashlight from the car, looked around the environment; it was an isolated mountain area.
There stood a large tree in the middle. Gu Qingchen went over, and then saw blood on the trunk, and a faint blue piece of cloth on a branch. He quickly took it down and saw it was the same fabric as the skirt Bei Ran wore today.
Tang Baijin found the trace of a rope on the ground, "Also, there are drag marks..."
Gu Qingchen came over, measured the length and weight, "It seems Bei Ran was dragged by a rope. I just checked the tree; Bei Ran had climbed up it. She knows how to climb trees. It seems like Tian Xin was hanged from the tree, and when Bei Ran was untying the rope, Tian Xin fell to the ground. But Tian Xin’s traces are not clear. Look, only below the tree are there chaotic markings. Tian Xin’s weight caused Bei Ran to be dragged, but the trail ends here..."
Gu Qingchen is a doctor. Although he doesn’t practice forensic medicine, his sharpness in examining the scene is definitely stronger than that of ordinary people.
Tang Baijin, an architect, knelt on the ground. He gently tapped the area where the trail ended, then joyfully said, "It’s hollow..."
The two exchanged glances, having the same thought—could the two of them be buried under the ground?
Tang Baijin, an expert in architectural design, kept tapping around, then looking for clues, and suddenly triggered the mechanism of a trap.
As light flooded the hole, Bei Ran and Tian Xin were overjoyed inside, and when they looked up, they unexpectedly found Gu Qingchen and Tang Baijin...
"Qingchen..." Bei Ran immediately called out.
She was more eager to see him than ever, although she had been angry when she left in the morning, but at this moment, upon seeing him come to rescue her, she was beyond happy.
Tang Baijin...
Tian Xin just silently noted the name in his heart.
