March 3, eleven o'clock in the evening.

With a soft "click", the door was pushed open, and Liang Jiawen hurried back home, not daring to turn on the light, and quickly locked the outer door, rushing into the room and closing all the curtains and windows.

Through the gap in the curtains, he saw the man in black in the corridor walking slowly out of the gate of the community, and stared back at the direction of his window.

He was so frightened that he quickly backed away from the window and closed the gap.

After confirming that no one was hiding in the room, he carefully hid in a corner, and then slowly unfolded the small note that was almost soaked in sweat in his palm with trembling fingertips.

B5-108, at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, the things will be brought over - the handwriting on the note is crisp and sharp, and the strokes are vigorous and powerful.

Everything is going according to plan, everything is going very well... probably.

His mother, the mother he hasn't seen for many years, he gritted his teeth and thought, he will be able to rescue his mother soon, everything is going according to plan, he will no longer be threatened, and he will be able to see him soon mother.

He hated Liang Zhong to the core.

Liang Zhong turned black and white, his mother was clearly not a bad person, and his mother didn't run away with someone at all.It was Liang Zhong, it was Liang Zhong who frightened her away by messing around, taking drugs and domestic violence. After scaring her away, she was still unwilling to let her live. She tried every means to threaten her with the lives of her parents and her only son. she.

Because she had Liang Zhong's criminal evidence in her hand.

For Liang Zhong, Liang Jiawen was just a bargaining chip used to threaten his mother. Liang Zhong also acted very close to him. In order to convince Gao Kuiliang that his son could be used as a bargaining chip, he sent his son to Gao Kuiliang so that Gao Kuiliang Let go of suspicion and agree to cooperate.

Fortunately, there is that person, fortunately, there is that person who tells him the truth.

Liang Zhong threatened her back then, what Liang Zhong did to her back then, and the photos of her living in hiding for so many years...brought back Liang Jiawen's remaining memories of her mother.

The man didn't lie to him.

He recalled a vague time with his mother before.His mother is a very gentle woman who will give him sweets, tease him, and tell him stories. His mother is a very good person.

The man told him that his mother had lived a very hard life for so many years, but Liang Zhong still tried every means to kill her—the man said that he could find a way to save her mother from the dire straits.

Liang Jiawen was a little moved.

He has been in society since he was a child, and his friends come and go. Everyone thinks that he is cold and heartless, and that he has a bad temper, but they don't know that he really yearns for family affection.

He had quarreled with his father for many years, and he was clear about his position in his father's heart. The father and son actually didn't have much affection. After learning about it later, he understood even more that this was not the family relationship he wanted.

Regardless, he agreed to that person's cooperation.

So he lurked beside Gao Kuiliang and Liang Zhong, worked under Gao Kuiliang, but secretly contacted that person, secretly trying to find Gao Kuiliang's criminal evidence, and handed the evidence to that person.

All the plans are proceeding smoothly, but he is too naive, there is no such thing as a good deal in this world, but there are also threats in the negotiation - if the cooperation fails, if he betrays halfway, that person will kill him first His mother would threaten his life, and even target the brothers he cared about one by one.

He has no room for regret.

He went to room 'B5-108' of the hotel several times as planned, installed the secret compartment as planned, and put the strange little box sent by the man into the secret compartment—tomorrow is the last step of the plan, and he returned to In that place, put the small mobile phone containing the evidence of Gao Kuiliang's drug trafficking into the small box.

He couldn't sleep all night, tangled and helpless, and he also had a bad premonition in his heart.

The next morning came quickly, Liang Jiawen took several deep breaths, took out the "photo of his mother" given by the man, stared at it greedily for a long time, engraved his mother's appearance firmly in his heart, and opened the hearts of his brothers. We took a group photo and looked back and forth for a long time before deciding to go to room 'B5-108' of the hotel.

After installing the things, I sat there and waited obediently for a while, until around twelve o'clock at noon, the man opened the door and entered the room, took his mobile phone away, gave him a metal sign of 'soaking the rain', and talked to him what.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Kuiliang arrived at the room and took him away.

He didn't dare to resist, he didn't dare to say anything, he had doubts in his heart, and at the same time he had a fluke mentality - he still had a lot of bargaining chips in his hand, everything should go according to plan, this was just a trap to lure Gao Kuiliang into the bait, then People will rescue him.

Will you really save him?In fact, he had no idea who that person was, what he looked like, or what his real name was.

Gao Kuiliang took him to a dark and damp underground rented house. He was not given food, drink or clothes, and he was humiliated. Still dare not say anything.

He was so hungry, hungry, thirsty and painful, he was unconscious for many days.After waking up, he couldn't see anything, and his eyes hurt like burning.

He didn't know how long it had been in the outside world, and whether anyone had noticed that he was gone. He recalled the photos he saw when he left home that day, and remembered the looks of his mother and brothers. He firmly remembered, and worked hard with this hope. He wanted to live, but the reality kept torturing him.

Someone fed him some food, and he couldn't speak anymore, but Gao Kuiliang still didn't give up, and gave him a pen, asking him non-stop, asking him to write down everything he knew.

Someone poured something into his ears and he couldn't hear.

Life is passing by at an accelerated rate, he can no longer feel anything other than pain and hunger, he can't live without death, and his will is exhausted. Now his thoughts run counter to the original one. He hopes that his mother will die quickly, and all his brothers will die.

But he can't say anything, can't do anything, he has no value.

"After I locked him in the rental house, I asked him a few times, but he was unwilling to say anything." Gao Kuiliang was breathing very hard, his breath was like gossamer, his voice was hoarse, and he tried to describe what happened while coughing. What tortured him was that he was not given food or drink, and he was humiliated for a few days... It's just that Fang Yushan was not very calm, afraid that Liang Jiawen would reveal their plan and make people sneak away Entering the rental house, trying every means to burn Liang Jiawen's eyes, make him deaf, and make him dumb with medicine, making him a useless person."

"I searched there for many days, and saved the video and audio recordings of Liang Jiawen's meeting and negotiating with Fang Yushan's subordinates."

"Liang Jiawen's mother actually died a long time ago. She died the second year after she divorced Liang Zhong. Who knows where Fang Yushan found a photo of a woman who looks similar to Liang Jiawen, or where she forged her identity information from?" ...It's true, the people under me almost believed it at the time."

"Until later, I lost control of Liang Jiawen long ago. Liang Jiawen was transferred from the rental house." Gao Kuiliang thought very dullly for a while, "It should be transferred to the underground warehouse where you found the body."

"As for who killed Liang Jiawen, I don't know... Maybe it was someone who cared about Liang Jiawen. I don't want Liang Jiawen to be in such pain anymore, so give him a good time."

"This brand, I guess you have found the same brand over there, I still have his other brands, many, after I die, someone will send those brands to you... Wait for me, after I die, I'll ask someone to send you all the evidence I have about him, not much, but it should be useful...cough cough cough cough!"

After Gao Kuiliang finished speaking, he finally couldn't bear it any longer, coughed violently several times, closed his eyes and tried his best to relax for a while.

After listening to Gao Kuiliang's narration, the two of them didn't speak for a long time. They picked up the 'drenched rain' for a photo, lowered their heads and stared at it for a while, seeming to understand the meaning of these signs.

- stands for 'control'.

Fang Yushan should have used the same method to control Li Wenxin, Yu Yue, and Shen Lin. It was the same as what they analyzed at the beginning. Most of them used "incentives" to lure people into cooperation, and then used "threats to safety" and the like. The means to hold people firmly, and finally achieve the goal.

It's just that they didn't expect that student Shen Xiao on their side had a firmer mentality, was not shaken, and was not controlled at all.

Gao Kuiliang's eyes were empty, he moved his body with difficulty, and said very slowly: "Among the beneficiaries of the orphanage, someone said that Fang Yushan had raped him—Fang Yushan was cautious, and did not handle most of the things himself. You promise me that if I can protect my daughter, I will have all the evidence handed over to you."

"..." Yan Cun thought for a while, unmoved, and asked first, "Who is the person behind you?"

"I can't say...cough...cough cough!" Gao Kuiliang replied half-deadly, "promise, promise me...let my daughter go..."

"Sorry, I don't have the final say on this matter," Yan Cun sighed, and didn't bluff anyone. He was extremely rational at the moment, "Gao Yaya and you are too closely related, and I have certain suspicions of committing crimes. I have no authority to be the master of this matter." .”

He thought for a while, and there was no other way, and he said, "However, if you can voluntarily confess your crime now, I will try to apply for protection for your family... The relevant personnel of the detachment just happened to be outside. If you want to say it, I will let you They just come in."

Gao Kuiliang reacted for a while, and coughed a few times. Compared with just now, his thoughts were much slower, and his current state looked a little dangerous.

"How?" Yan Cun said sincerely, "Time is running out, this may be the best solution at present, you weigh it."

"Let them...cough cough...let them come in..." When he was about to die, Gao Kuiliang had long forgotten about other things in his heart. He couldn't think of the interests and rights he cared about during his lifetime. Family members and children, "I, cough, cough... I said..."

The Bluetooth communicator transmitted Gao Kuiliang's voice, Jiang Huai and Zhang Jingze heard it clearly outside, and rushed into the ward without waiting for the order to be issued, and the attending doctor came in together to observe Gao Kuiliang's physical condition at any time, and promptly implement if there was any problem rescue.

After receiving the news, He Jiu also speeded up to the hospital, and at the same time saw Gao Kuiliang's daughter, Gao Yaya, in the parking lot.

After all, Gao Kuiliang looked away and asked them to stop Gao Yaya. He didn't want Gao Yaya's father image to collapse. When he was dying, he confessed to the fact that he had committed economic crimes and illegally operated casinos, including but not limited to collaborating with Su Haiyuan and Liang Zhong. Drug trafficking, let Liang Zhong illegally transform a low-level private club, and hired Wang Yuan to kill Yan Peifeng's family of three.

In a sense, there is no difference between him and Liang Jiawen. Liang Jiawen is a tool man controlled and deceived by Fang Yushan, while he is a 'running dog' driven by profit.

He enjoyed all the glory during his life, but he was helpless when he was about to die, and he was coerced. In retrospect, it was so meaningless to live for so many years.

He didn't regret it after asking him, and he couldn't answer. The ECG monitoring device sounded an alarm and showed a straight line.

Outside the ward, Gao Yaya seemed to sense something, her heart was beating wildly, tears welled up in her eyes, and she rushed into Gao Kuiliang's ward regardless of the obstruction.

Gao Kuiliang confessed to drug trafficking, economic crimes, illegal casino operation, illegal imprisonment and imprisonment of Liang Jiawen, and tortured Liang Jiawen. He became ill at 11 o'clock in the evening on November 8 and died after rescue. He was 53 years old.

The suspect in Liang Jiawen's case has not been found yet.
