Chapter 1696: Not giving a ransom? (5 more)

1696
Lu Damin was kidnapped!
The news swept the entire banquet scene as quickly as a hurricane.
When Xu Taiping knew the news, many people also received news that the atmosphere of the entire banquet scene suddenly became solemn and serious.

How can I be kidnapped?
asked Xu Taiping.
"I heard that when he went to pick up his girlfriend, he was kidnapped downstairs in his girlfriend's house. The robbers kidnapped him and snatched his car!" Jennifer said.
"Now? Is the police locked the robbers?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Not yet," Jennifer said.
"Not yet? His car I remember is a Ferrari? Is such a good car, it is not easy to lock?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Luocheng's monitoring system is not developed. Because it involves privacy, many places are not allowed to be monitored, and the robbers are very experienced. It will be difficult to lock into Lu Damin's car for a while." Jennifer said.
"Is there any information about the kidnappers?" asked Xu Taiping.
"No... But from their way of doing things, it should be a veteran. I am now paying attention to the progress of the whole thing. What's new, I will tell you again!" Jennifer said.
"Good!" Xu Taiping said, hanging up the phone.
At this moment, a number of international students ran to Xu Taiping.
"Xu Ge, the big people were kidnapped!" said a foreign student excitedly.
"I know this thing." Xu Taiping said in a deep voice, "but now the police are actively solving the case, you can rest assured!"
"Luocheng's police car can't be expected!" An international student shook his head. "This year, five Chinese students have been kidnapped. So far, a case has not been broken. Finally, a ransom was given. come back."

Has five incidents?
Xu Taiping asked in amazement.
How is it so much?

"Because the police in Los Angeles have no intention to solve the case, you wait and see. After a while, the police in Luocheng will definitely recommend the parents to the ransom, because as long as the ransom is given, the people will be released. The police will save trouble," said the international student.

There is this?
Xu Taiping frowned.
After the ransom, the police will not continue to trace the case?
Xu Taiping asked.
"I heard people say that these kidnappers are local gangsters in Los Angeles. The relationship with the local police is very complicated. Therefore, unless it is a torn ticket, the police generally do not manage these things." A Chinese person on the side said.
"There have been so many kidnappings in this year because the police did not think about arresting people. I suspect that these kidnappings will be done by the same group." Someone said.
"If there is no ransom?" asked Xu Taiping.
"It is said that it will tear up the ticket, but all the kidnapping cases this year have been ransom, and they have all been released, and it is only 10 million dollars. Shouldn't it be ransom?" Someone said.
Xu Taiping frowned and said, "You should sit back in your seat first, let me know about the situation!"
After that, Xu Taiping picked up his mobile phone and turned to walk out of the banquet hall.
Xu Taiping called the razor.
"Do you know that someone named Lu Damin was kidnapped?" asked Xu Taiping.
"Well, I know, the other party asked for a ransom of $10 million." The razor on the phone said.
"I heard that the Luocheng police did not solve the case?" Xu Taiping asked.
"It is not that the case is not broken, but the case is difficult to break. If the ransom is given, the kidnappers will not tear up the ticket, and the Chinese who are kidnapped are all Chinese. Therefore, the Luocheng police generally recommend ransom, so they save trouble. Secondly, it can also ensure the safety of the hostages," said the razor.
"National Security did not intend to arrange for people to rescue?" Xu Taiping asked.
"In criminal cases in other countries, our general purpose is to urge the local police to conduct investigations. This is what the police in their country need to do. We are generally doing things related to national security. We have now urged the Los Angeles police. However, I think this time it should be the same as before, giving ransom, and then kidnapping and letting people release. There is no way for us to do this. Chinese people in the Western countries, many times, are regarded as chickens that will lay golden eggs every year. There are more than one hundred cases of kidnappings against Chinese people in the world. This one is related to the inaction of the local police. The other is that Chinese people who go abroad generally have money, and they are also very prose in foreign countries, which is likely to cause local criminal groups. Attention." said the razor.
"Okay." Xu Taiping sighed. The Chinese people encountered this situation overseas. He didn't have much of a way. After all, the world is so big, and Chinese people know that everyone has money. He may be able to destroy it. What is the use of one or two criminal groups? Without the cooperation of the local police, it does not make sense for him to do anything personally.
Before hearing Lu Damin being kidnapped, Xu Taiping was quite nervous. Now I heard that as long as the money is given to Lu Damin, Xu Taiping is somewhat angry, but he also knows that this is indeed the best way at present. He went to save Lu Damin. In such a big city, it would take several hours to find Lu Damin alone, and the time given by the robbers was only three hours, which was not enough.
The problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. Since the razor has already been said, the robber will give the money, and the heart of Xu Taiping will be put down.
Xu Taiping returned to the banquet hall.
"Easy everyone, the big people should be released soon by the robbers." Xu Taiping said.
The people around them nodded, and they all believed that the robbers would soon release Lu Damin.
"How do I feel so wrong?" Xu Taiping frowned at Guo Yunpeng around him.
"How is it wrong?" Guo Yunpeng asked.
"After being kidnapped, you can only spend money to settle down. Isn't this wrong? Is this the police in Los Angeles really eating?" Xu Taiping said.
"People are strangers in a foreign land. Do you not understand this? This is the country of others, not our country. If you say that this kind of thing happens in China, may the police do this? The police are not very good here. Guan, then you are useless again," Guo Yunpeng said.
"Really!" Xu Taiping nodded and maintained the stability of the society. The most important thing was to rely on the police. If the police did not act, it would be useless for others to do it. It is like Jiangyuan City, now Jiangyuan City Security. Well, on the one hand, the Taiya Group is constantly managing the entire rivers and lakes, and on the other hand, the police have made a difference. Under such coordination, the entire law and order of Jiangyuan City will continue to improve.
Because there is such a thing, the people present are not in the mood to eat and drink. Everyone is waiting for the final result. Although according to past management, as long as the money is given, it will be fine, but it is not really seen. Before everyone, the hearts of all people are still hanging.
As time went on, more and more news was passed to the banquet hall.
"The robbers raised the ransom to 20 million!" someone excitedly said.
20 million?
The people present were taking a breath of cold. The two million dollars were equivalent to more than 100 million yuan. In the previous cases of kidnapping, there was no such thing as a high ransom. The most one was 8 million. US dollars, this time to 20 million US dollars, these kidnappers appetite is too big, right?
After that, someone called again.
"I just got the news, Damin, his family, no, I don't plan to pay the ransom!" someone called.
"Do not pay the ransom?" Xu Taiping smashed, then went to the person who spoke and reluctantly asked, "What are you talking about?"
"It's true, I am a place with the big people. My dad knows about Dad and his father. They are together now. When the $10 million was before, Dad did not say that he would not give a ransom. Now it has been raised. Twenty million dollars, Dad, his father said that he could not afford to pay," the man said.
"How could it be impossible to pay, Dad, his father's family has produced over one billion!" Someone said.
"But his dad said he was not prepared to pay!" the man continued.
"You should always pay attention to the situation of Damin and his father. I will call you." Xu Taiping said, and once again walked out of the banquet hall.
Xu Taiping called the razor. Now that I can get the information in the first place, it is estimated that there will be only a razor.
"We just got the news, the robbers raised the ransom, and Lu Damin's father, Lu Kang, did not intend to pay the ransom. Now the problem is passed on to the Luocheng police. Lu Kang does not intend to pay the ransom, then the Luocheng police will It is necessary to increase the intensity of the search for the kidnappers. This is a good way to at least let the Luocheng police really pay attention to this matter, instead of letting the people here directly pay the money, but there are risks, once the robbers When you get the details, you will be able to tear up the ticket." The razor said at the end of the phone.
"That Lukang is trying to put pressure on the Luocheng police, so I don't pay the ransom?" Xu Taiping asked.
"This is really not accurate. I have investigated it. This Lu Damin is an illegitimate son of Lu Kang. There is no inheritance right. Lu Kang is not bad for him, but Lu Kang has a wife and does not like this Lu Damin. So Lu Damin is finally Lu. Kang gave the country and studied abroad. At present, it may be that Lu Kang’s wife is obstructing Lukang’s ransom of 20 million. Of course, this is only my personal guess.
The razor said.
"That is to say, now Lu Damin is alive and dead, can only see the police in Los Angeles?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Well, I have another worry about this matter," said the razor.
"What are you worried about?" asked Xu Taiping.
"I am worried that the kidnappers will be desperate to tear up the votes, because the kidnappings against the Chinese have been ransom for several times. They are the first time they have encountered such a ransom, in order to prevent others from appearing in the future. In the case of ransom, the kidnappers are likely to tear the ticket directly!" The razor said seriously.

Directly tearing the ticket?
Xu Taiping looked a glimpse.
