"Oh, right, I also bought you a set."

The stutterer said.

"And mine?"

Ye Tianming said with some surprise.

Then I saw Little Stutterer take a box out of the room.

The box was opened, revealing a set of priest's robes with a white background, gold trim, and gold patterns.

This is clearly not a proper priest's uniform; it's more like the attire of a priest from an anime.

Ye Tianming took the clothes out of the box; they looked pretty good.

So I went to my room and changed.

"How about it?"

He came out of the room and asked the little stutterer.

"very nice!"

The little stutterer nodded, her eyes practically overflowing with love and infatuation!

That night, Ye Tianming only slept for a little over three hours.

It's probably because we haven't seen each other for too long.

Little Stutterer was exceptionally strong tonight, displaying a fighting spirit far exceeding his usual level.

A little after eight in the morning.

Ye Tianming got up, ate something quickly, and went to work.

Little Stutterer is still sleeping in his room.

She is so tired.

I'm afraid I won't wake up until the afternoon.

...

nine in the morning.

After several days, Ye Tianming returned to work in the forensic department.

"How are things? Are you adjusting well back to work after your vacation?"

Gu Zechen brought over two cups of coffee, handed him one, and asked him with a smile.

"Not bad. I remember you haven't taken any of your annual leave this year, have you? So, any plans?"

Ye Tianming took a sip of coffee and asked.

"What other plans do I have? My editor has been urging me to finish the manuscript more than ten times this month. I plan to take a vacation in a while and then focus on writing my new book at home."

Gu Zechen had a bitter face, and Ye Tianming could imagine his frustration when the editor kept urging him to submit his manuscript.

The two chatted for a few minutes outside before returning to their respective offices.

After a while, Wen Jiaxi knocked on Ye Tianming's office door and came in.

Are you free tonight?

She looked at Ye Tianming and asked.

"Want to come to your place sometime?"

Ye Tianming said.

Wen Jiaxi nodded, then turned and strode away with her long legs.

Very decisive, as always, with a capable style.

Ye Tianming spent the entire morning processing some backlogged documents he had left over from his vacation.

After dealing with this pile of stuff, it was almost lunchtime.

Boom boom boom!

Gu Zechen knocked on the door and said, "Let's go eat together."

Ye Tianming nodded, put down his things, and followed Gu Zechen toward the cafeteria.

In the cafeteria, Ye Tianming ran into Liang Xiaorou, whom he hadn't seen for many days.

She looked very tired and was even dozing off while eating.

He's obviously exhausted lately!

Ye Tianming and Gu Zechen took the food and sat down at her place. The noise of them sitting down woke up Liang Xiaorou, who was dozing off.

"It's you!"

She nodded when she saw the two of them, and then said to Ye Tianming, "I'm sorry, I've been working overtime these past few days and didn't have time to attend your dinner party the day before yesterday."

"It's okay, do you want to go home and rest? I see you're almost falling asleep sitting here, that won't do."

Ye Tianming said.

"I'd like to, but I have too much work."

Liang Xiaorou said with a wry smile, "I could have taken a day off to go home and rest today, but as you can see, I've been given work again."

She reached out and patted a document lying next to her.

"What's going on? Can you tell me?"

Ye Tianming asked curiously.

Gu Zechen, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but prick up his ears as well.

“There’s nothing I can’t say. Actually, although this case was handed over to us, there’s only so much we can do,” Liang Xiaorou said with a wry smile. “It happened this morning. A wealthy man’s son was kidnapped, and his car and driver were abandoned on the side of the road. Someone saw it and reported it to the police. As a result, we found out that the car belonged to that wealthy man surnamed Wang.”

“But when we went there, they completely denied the existence of the kidnapping, and said that his son was away on a business trip.”

“But we have checked, and there is no record of his son’s entry or exit from the country in the past two days. This is obviously a lie.”

Liang Xiaorou looked both angry and helpless.

The case was handed over to them, so naturally they had to follow up.

The problem now is that the families of the kidnapped people are not cooperating and do not want the police to get involved at all. What can they do?

Let's do nothing.

Inappropriate!

But if you insist on interfering, they might not even appreciate it!

That’s very embarrassing!

"Surname Wang? Wang the Millionaire?"

Ye Tianming asked.

"No, it's Wang Shouren."

Liang Xiaorou said.

It’s him!

Ye Tianming remembered that this old Wang lived on Taiping Mountain.

In a way, they are neighbors, just a bit far apart.

Wang Shouren started out in the insurance business, and now his company is very large and has gone public.

He is also a super-rich man with a net worth of over 10 billion!

but;

There are more than dozens of such super-rich people in Hong Kong alone.

Hong Kong is often said to be the economic center of Asia, and even the second most economically developed city in the world!

Free City is second only to the United States.

Here, if you throw a brick down from upstairs, you might hit several millionaires.

However, wealthy people like this usually have bodyguards when they go out.

The kidnappers who managed to abduct someone this time don't seem to be inexperienced newbies!

Do you know how much ransom the kidnappers demanded?

Ye Tianming asked curiously.

Liang Xiaorou shook her head. Wang Shouren simply wouldn't cooperate with them and refused to say anything. Clearly, he didn't trust the police and intended to buy his way out.

Therefore, their current knowledge is limited.

"Actually, this is not the first case of a wealthy person being kidnapped."

Liang Xiaorou said.

"This isn't the first time?"

Ye Tianming looked at her in surprise.

"Is it true that the wife of that wealthy man Liu was kidnapped last time?"

Gu Zechen asked.

Liang Xiaorou nodded and said, "Although that Liu Fuhao didn't cooperate with us, we later found out that he suddenly withdrew more than 170 million yuan in cash from the bank. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the ransom given to the kidnappers."

·· ······Requesting flowers· ····

How long ago was this?

Ye Tianming asked.

"It happened the day after you left on vacation."

Gu Zechen said.

"These kidnappers are so arrogant?" Ye Tianming was somewhat surprised. Wasn't Hong Kong under martial law recently? The triads had all become much more behaving than usual, so why were these kidnappers even more arrogant?
