The dynamic singing and dancing of the Fire boy band on the stage drew continuous screams from the audience. Lin Cijiu sat in the audience in a daze, as if his soul had been sucked out of him.
Li Yuzhi saw something was wrong and asked her carefully, “What’s wrong with you? Did something happen? What did your wife say just now?”
Lin Cijiu blankly touched the ring finger of her left hand. The empty fingers made her feel uneasy little by little.
Seeing her like this, Li Yuzhi guessed that something bad had happened.
Although she was a little silly, she was also a person who dared to take responsibility for her actions. She honestly admitted, “Your wife might have heard our conversation yesterday. Why don’t you explain it to us?”
“Chatting?” Lin Cijiu recalled dully, but his head seemed to be rusted, and he was so confused that he couldn’t remember what he had said to the squad leader yesterday.
Li Yuzhi saw that her face was pale, and asked worriedly: “Lin Cijiu, what happened to you?”
“I don’t know. She said she wanted… a divorce.” When those two words were mentioned, Lin Cijiu’s heart felt like it was stabbed.
Li Yuzhi’s head started to hurt after hearing this. “Aren’t you two fine? She wouldn’t divorce you just because of that. She’s too petty.”
“Don’t talk about my wife.” Lin Cijiu warned coldly, “Something must have happened to her. The last time she told me about the divorce was because she had a car accident. This time…”
Lin Cijiu’s rusty brain suddenly began to work a little.
She grabbed Li Yuzhi nervously, “Something might have happened to her.”
“What could have happened…” Li Yuzhi said, but suddenly remembered that the magic just now seemed a little abnormal.
But a magic accident shouldn’t be as serious as a car accident.
“It’s just tying her up and putting her in a box, and performing a magic trick. It won’t be an accident as serious as a car accident. It’s not like escaping from a water tank.” Li Yuzhi analyzed seriously.
Fortunately, it is these two nerds who are discussing now. If it were Su Xiaoxuan, they would argue for half a day.
Lin Cijiu was actually a little uncertain. She was probably just desperate and trying anything she could think of. She didn’t want Ou Yingxin to really divorce her, but she didn’t want anything to happen to her even more.
“Magic, magic…” She murmured, closing her eyes and recalling the magic she had performed before.
From the beginning, everything was normal. Ou Yingxin even glanced at the audience. They must have seen her and smiled.
Lin Cijiu’s attention was all on Ou Yingxin. After careful recollection, she remembered that the magician who performed the magic was her brother-in-law.
His eyes were always cold, and he seemed to have glanced in her direction a few times in the audience.
Lin Cijiu didn’t have much interaction with her brother-in-law. To be more precise, her sister suddenly stopped contacting her after she became an adult.
After that, Lin Cijiu heard about her love, marriage, children, and even her death from other people first.
One time, when my sister and her husband came home, Lin Cijiu met them by chance. Her brother-in-law was very friendly and even brought her a gift.
Lin Cijiu was very cold and didn’t say much.
Brother-in-law Su Han smiled and said, “Your sister’s personality is similar to yours.”
“Not like that!” My sister was very cold at that time, and seemed angry.
When the family was having dinner in the evening, Lin’s mother said, “Lin Cijiu, did you make friends at school?”
Lin Cijiu understood immediately and asked with a stern face, “Did the teacher complain to you?”
For a top student like her to always play with a poor student like Ou Baobao, the teacher must be afraid that it will affect her studies and has warned her several times. She knows that it is only a matter of time before she tells her parents.
“Yeah.” Mother Lin didn’t look angry. It seemed like she was just asking casually at the dinner table to avoid everyone being silent.
“How are you getting along with your friends?” Sister Lin asked suddenly, which was rare.
Lin Cijiu was stunned for a moment, and after a long while he replied, “Not bad.”
Sister Lin seemed to see through everything and asked again: “Really?”
Lin Cijiu bit his chopsticks and lowered his head and said, “I often make her angry.”
“I didn’t ignore you even though I was angry?”
“Ah.”
“Then we’re more than just friends.” Sister Lin only asked a few questions and said nothing more.
At that time, Lin Cijiu didn’t understand what it meant. Now thinking about it, it must be that her sister saw through their relationship at that time.
Lin Cijiu and his brother-in-law had only met a few times from beginning to end, and they were very unfamiliar with each other. He also didn’t know why he divorced his sister.
“There shouldn’t be any hatred.”
Even though she was thinking this, Lin Cijiu still stood up nervously. As she walked backstage, she called Li Yuan, “Come to the backstage door and take me in.”
Li Yuan was right next to the stage. She didn’t hear clearly at first when she received the call, but she sensed Lin Cijiu’s serious tone and rushed over immediately.
“Brother-in-law, what’s wrong?”
“Do you know which dressing room is magician Su Han’s?” Lin Cijiu walked anxiously towards the backstage.
Although Li Yuan was a little slow, she had a good relationship with people. She immediately found someone she knew who was in management to take them to the magician’s dressing room.
The heavy wooden door was pushed open, revealing only the mess inside after someone had passed through.
Li Yuan followed and said, “I just asked, they have other plans and have already left.”
“Has anyone seen your boss?” Lin Cijiu looked around, feeling more and more uneasy.
Li Yuan asked doubtfully, “Brother-in-law, isn’t my boss with you? Didn’t the magic show end a long time ago?”
Lin Cijiu searched everywhere and saw Ou Yingxin’s coat hanging in the closet. Looking at the familiar clothes, Lin Cijiu was certain that something had happened to Ou Yingxin.
It’s so cold today, even if you are angry with her and don’t want to see her, you don’t have to take off your coat.
“Something happened to your wife.” Li Yuzhi, who was following behind, also noticed this.
Lin Cijiu took out his coat from the closet, his hands shaking.
She didn’t know what was going on, but the situation must be dangerous.
“Call Xiaoxuan.” Lin Cijiu tried her best to calm herself down. She couldn’t panic.
Su Xiaoxuan was being interviewed when she suddenly received a call from the professor with glasses. Without saying a word, she lifted her skirt and ran to the backstage.
The manager chased after her, stopped her and scolded her, “Xiaoxuan, you are just starting to get better, don’t get carried away. We are in the middle of an interview, if you suddenly run away, people will say you are a big shot.”
Su Xiaoxuan held her agent’s shoulder and whispered, “Boss Ou is in trouble. I’m going to take a look. Don’t tell anyone. Help me deal with those reporters.”
Seeing her serious expression, the man also became serious, “Okay, I understand. Be careful. If you need me, remember to call me.”
When Su Xiaoxuan arrived at the dressing room, Sister Qiao also came.
Lin Cijiu frowned and said, “You go about your business, I’ll take care of this matter. You’re going to open the exhibition today, so you have to take charge.”
“That’s my own sister, how can I sit still? What happened? I heard from the manager that you were looking for my sister, what does that mean? Where did she go?” Sister Qiao was so anxious that her phone kept ringing but she didn’t answer it.
Li Yuzhi saw the person at the door and reminded, “Su Xiaoxuan is here.”
“Aunt, what happened to my aunt?” Su Xiaoxuan looked at the people in the room and became nervous.
Lin Cijiu looked at her tiredly and said, “Wait a moment, let’s finish watching the surveillance first. Sister, can you ask your security guard to retrieve the surveillance footage of all the entrances and exits of the park for us?”
Sister Qiao immediately called and asked the security director to come over.
A group of people quickly walked towards the monitoring room. Lin Cijiu advised Sister Qiao, “I’ll take care of the rest. You should focus on your own business first.”
“I’m with you. I’ve already told these old guys that you two have the same authority as me in the entire scenic area. They were so blind as to stop you from going backstage. I’ll kill them if they hurt a hair on my sister’s body!” While Sister Qiao was giving orders to the security manager, she also took the time to call Father Qiao. She didn’t tell him about Baby Ou’s disappearance and only asked for two hours of leave.
Father Qiao couldn’t help scolding her for not doing her job. “Today is such an important day, what are you thinking of doing?”
Sister Qiao gritted her teeth and didn’t explain, but just asked her subordinates not to spread the news.
Several people came to the surveillance camera. Lin Cijiu had a specially trained brain, so he watched the surveillance playback at 16 times the speed.
There are several exits in the park, with many people coming in but few leaving.
Lin Cijiu quickly finished watching the surveillance video at the gate and said, “He didn’t go out.”
“It’s so fast, can you see clearly?” Sister Qiao expressed her doubts.
“How could I not recognize her?” Lin Cijiu locked his sights on several cars leaving the house and asked the security guard to pull up the surveillance video of the boarding location.
Li Yuzhi explained, “At this speed, you can see clearly. There are not many people leaving, only 21. Judging from their clothes, most of them should be staff. There are also three cars leaving. I think with Lin Cijiu’s ability, he can definitely see clearly whether it is his wife.”
Sister Qiao looked at the two people in surprise. It turned out that people are different.
Su Xiaoxuan was not even surprised. She had a mother with an IQ of 180, and compared with her mother’s abilities, these were just entry-level.
Lin Cijiu didn’t have time to talk to them, she was concentrating on watching the video.
After everything was shown, she asked the security guard to replay the video of a parking lot outside the dressing room, where a group of people were carrying a lot of props and loading them into a truck.
Lin Cijiu froze the scene, turned around and looked at Su Xiaoxuan, carefully choosing his words and said, “I checked all the surveillance cameras and didn’t see her go out. From the beginning of the show to now, the only ones who went out were your father’s team.”
Li Yuzhi was not as slow as her and said directly: “You freeze the picture here, are you trying to say that your wife was probably put in a prop box and carried into the car?”
Su Xiaoxuan was not a person who would waste time, so she asked directly, “Aunt, do you want to say that my dad kidnapped my aunt?”
Lin Cijiu asked her carefully, “Is this possible?”
Su Xiaoxuan sighed and said helplessly: “I don’t know, but, aunt, if my dad wants to kidnap someone, he should want to kidnap you more.”
Lin Cijiu was stunned for a moment. She was not familiar with her brother-in-law, so why did he kidnap her?
Sister Qiao asked directly: “Why?”
“After my dad got divorced, he looked like nothing had happened, but he actually hated my mom very much.” Su Xiaoxuan shook her head and said something else, “No, he must have loved my mom too much, and out of love came hatred. He kept saying that my mom couldn’t really be dead, and that she must have been hiding on purpose because she was afraid that he would pester her. He was very scary when he went crazy, and he wouldn’t listen to anything I said. I advised him to see a psychiatrist, but he still…”
Li Yuzhi heard it and asked softly, “Did he hit you?”
“I haven’t seen him for a long time. I thought he was fine. It’s been three years.” Su Xiaoxuan felt a little regretful. She didn’t know this would happen. She lowered her head, tears falling. “Aunt, I’m sorry.”
“It’s none of your business, Xiaoxuan. Tell me, why do you want to kidnap me?”
“My dad said that my mom doesn’t care about her husband and children at all. The only thing she cares about is you. She always keeps your photo in her wallet. I asked my grandma later, and it’s not what she thought, but she was so stubborn that she didn’t listen to me. I didn’t know she would be so extreme…”
Even though Sister Qiao didn’t have a super brain, she figured out the whole story, “So, your dad wanted to capture Lin Cijiu and force your mom to show up, so why did he capture my sister?”
“Her father asked Ou Baobao to call me and asked me to replace her, but she asked me not to look for her…” Lin Cijiu tried his best to restrain himself, but he still couldn’t control his trembling body.
