Chapter 237 Capturing the Thief and Capturing the King
It is effortless to hold Okamoto hostage. Cui Jian kindly reminds Okamoto that as long as he cooperates, it will be good for you, me and everyone.

Okamoto, who was tied to a chair with tape, did not show much resistance. He looked at Cui Jian, who was wearing a ski cap, with a pair of cold and lifeless eyes that only a middle-aged man could have, and asked, "What do you want?" He looked a little scared and a little panicked, but not excited.

Cui Jian told Okamoto his intention and he agreed immediately.

While waiting, the bored Cui Jian asked Okamoto why he agreed so readily. Shouldn't he resist first, be abused, and finally give in?

In addition to despising Jian Cui, Okamoto also talked about his own story. He considered himself to be a very failed man. When he was young, he was full of vigor and vitality. He graduated from a prestigious university and went to work in a company. A few years later, he took out a loan to buy a house and got married. At that time, he was considered a successful person with a bright future.

As he reached middle age, he faced increasing pressure in the workplace. He earned a high salary, but his competitiveness was not as good as that of young people. He worked overtime constantly, which alienated him from his family. When his daughter rebelled and committed a crime, he could not help but give her a lesson, but was defeated by her words that she did not need a father like him when she was growing up.

The relationship between Okamoto and his wife was even more precarious. Facing a husband who went out early and came back late, his wife, as a housewife, felt that life was boring, so she got together with an interesting man through the Internet. Upon learning of this, Okamoto proposed a divorce, but his wife was unwilling. During the quarrel between the two, his daughter said that she had had enough of this family and everything, and she slammed the door and ran away from home.

The divorce battle lasted for half a year, and Okamoto was forced to expose the fact that he was cuckolded. After the divorce, the angry ex-wife sent a letter of complaint to Okamoto's company. It turned out that Okamoto had used his position to have business dealings with his good brother. In fact, it was a normal business transaction, and Okamoto asked his brother to explain the situation to the company. The good brother thought that Okamoto did not care about the brotherhood at all and did not give him any benefits, so he told the investigator that Okamoto had repeatedly lowered the price because he failed to ask for benefits from him.

When he was facing layoffs and being sued, the female director of the company who had been pursuing him since his youth helped him escape. Afterwards, he was disheartened and voluntarily applied to the Hancheng office. Over the past year, he has been muddled through life without any idea of ​​the future.

Okamoto asked: "What is the meaning of life? I work hard to make money to support my family, let my wife use the best cosmetics, let my daughter get the best education, and provide them with the best resources possible. But why? The company despises me for my age and high income, my wife despises me for not knowing how to be romantic, my daughter despises me for not having time to accompany her, and my good brother despises me for being too upright. Have I really done something wrong?"

Cui Jian replied: "If you don't work hard, you won't even have a wife and daughter. What about your parents?"

Okamoto replied: "They passed away several years ago."

Cui Jian nodded: "At least you were happy when they died."

Okamoto said: "No, I don't understand. What should I do? If I don't work hard, I won't be promoted, and my wife won't like me..."

Cui Jian interrupted and asked, "Have you ever thought that you shouldn't marry such an excellent wife? I think your needs are wrong. You need a good wife and a good mother, and your wife needs a husband who focuses on her. Your concept is family, and your wife's concept is husband and wife. Okay, okay, it's okay. At least your daughter is yours."

After the words fell, Okamoto's body shook, and Cui Jian's soul trembled. No way, no way? Don't do it, the call hasn't been made yet. Cui Jian hurriedly said: "A rebellious girl will only say harsh words to those who truly love her. Your daughter really loves you. Let me ask you, you said you changed your phone number and cut off contact with your old friends, so have you contacted your daughter?"

Okamoto shook his head, and Cui Jian said, "After I finish my business, you'd better call your daughter."

Okamoto: "I want to fight now."

Cui Jian refused: "No, I am just a guest psychologist. My main job is a kidnapper."

Okamoto paused for a long time: "You don't look like a kidnapper, but more like an old friend."

Cui Jian: "Then I'm just here as a guest." It's not against the law. I admire myself so much.

Okamoto: "Can you accompany me to call my daughter later?"

Cui Jian was stunned twice. First: You guys are talking about father-daughter relationship, what does it have to do with me? I am a kidnapper, do kidnappers understand? Second: I don’t understand Japanese, I’m just a piece of cake. But in order to get Okamoto to cooperate with the phone call, Cui Jian nodded and agreed. It’s not easy to do any job now.

About 20 minutes later, the warehouse called Okamoto and said that someone had delivered several large wooden boxes, but the warehouse did not have a receipt. Okamoto explained that he had just communicated with the president of the other company after get off work and would complete the formalities the next morning.

Okamoto was very cooperative, so the security guard on duty at the warehouse naturally had no doubts. After hanging up the phone, Okamoto was about to call his daughter, but Cui Jian said, "I'm more inclined to call your friend on the board. She's the one who helped and protected you."

Okamoto explained: "She has a family, and I don't want others to misunderstand."

Cui Jian asked: "Others dare to do it on the first day of the month, but you don't dare to do it on the fifteenth?"

Okamoto was stunned, as if there was nothing wrong with what he said, but it seemed like there were problems. Yes, the adulterer and the adulteress were free and unfettered, so why should a poor guy like me have any moral concerns? Why? But my friend had nothing to do with this matter. Although it had nothing to do with it, I just wanted to express my gratitude.

Thinking of this, Okamoto called his friend, who was very happy to receive his call, so Okamoto listened most of the time. Okamoto put the phone aside. Cui Jian didn't understand Japanese, but he could hear that the girl on the other side was crying with joy, and that the clouds would clear and the moon would appear. Okamoto then realized that his friend was not happy after marriage because the girl was rich and strong, and the husband only found a sense of accomplishment from the little girl. In order for her son to have a complete family, the girl had been forbearing.

In the past few years, the son has grown up and is very disgusted with this broken family. Under the long-term instigation of his husband, the son believes that the main reason for the broken family is his mother. As a result, the son blames his mother for all his misfortunes, even the failure of the test.

The sister was deeply hurt by her son today. Her husband seemed to be trying to smooth things over, but in fact he was always fanning the flames and portraying the sister as the source of all evil. She was very happy to receive a call from Okamoto when she was feeling extremely depressed and disappointed in her family.

Cui Jian looked at his phone and Hai Lan said they could retreat.

Cui Jian took Okamoto's phone and said in English: "Sorry to bother you, I'm a kidnapper. The thing is, I need a reason not to kill Okamoto, but his life is full of failures, and you are his last straw."

The girl immediately said, "I am willing to give you money, a lot of money." The last thing she lacked was money.

Cui Jian didn't answer, but patted Okamoto on the shoulder and left. Okamoto asked, "Mr. kidnapper, I don't want to call the police, but I can't untie the tape without calling the police." Cui Jian said, "Aren't you on the phone?" Open the door, leave, and close the door. Can't you ask a girl to come and untie you? Straight man, you deserve to be single.

……

Cui Jian drove to the vicinity of the consulate, but he didn't see a blazing fire. The main body of the fire was black smoke, and the not-so-strong flames flickered in the black smoke, and it was obvious that it was still burning indoors. The security guard on duty at Okamoto took a water pipe outside and poured water on the fire from 50 meters away. Cui Jian learned that this is the way to be dedicated and try to slack off. Although I can't put out the fire, I am putting it out. Although I can't save my employer, I am saving my employer. Even if the Grim Reaper has announced the death of my employer, I still won't give up.

Cui Jian, like many onlookers, drove slowly past the scene. The fire brigade arrived quickly and divided into several groups, one to suppress the flames and the other to evacuate people, including Yamano Taro from the next building. Yamano Taro's people thought that the fire would not burn this building, and the firefighters explained that they suspected that the burning of chemicals would produce toxic smoke.

During the negotiation, a small box prepared by Hai Lan exploded. There was only a 15-centimeter wall between the two houses, and it was not a load-bearing wall. After the explosion, a hole was blown out in Yamano Taro's house.

So, Yamano Taro walked out of the small building under the guidance of the firefighters and the protection of four bodyguards. There were several ambulances parked on the roadside of the small building. When Yamano Taro walked towards his own vehicle, a nurse raised a silencer pistol and shot Yamano Taro in the head from the side.

The four bodyguards were stunned for a few seconds. They were not stunned by the scene, but because they didn't know what to do. Attack the murderer? They have guns. Protect Yamano Taro? They have guns.

Running for your life? Not so good, right? The bodyguard also drew his gun? Hey, let me be clear, how did you, as a bodyguard, get a gun? Do you have a license? Where did you get the gun? How many times have you fired it? How long have you had it? Who sold it to you? Where do you practice shooting on a daily basis? Does your employer know that you have a gun?
No matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife. In the era of firearms, a gun is enough to intimidate a group of people. Seeing this, the nurse became even more arrogant. After waving the muzzle of the gun to let the four bodyguards move aside, she took two steps forward and shot Yamano Taro twice from a distance of three meters. After she was done, no one dared to stop her. They watched her get on the ambulance and leave.

But the young nurse also made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. The other party was a big boss, and he must have arranged a group of supporters around him. It was not so easy to just walk away when something happened.

Upon hearing about the fire, the mountain support team arrived at the vicinity immediately. They had two vehicles, one of which was a special SUV used for traffic interception. When the ambulance passed two intersections, the SUV hit it at high speed from the right side, overturning it. Due to inertia, the body of the ambulance swept over the middle guardrail, dragged for more than 20 meters, and stopped in the opposite lane.

Even a special SUV would not be able to survive such a violent collision, and the vehicle flipped over on all four wheels. Although the personnel were not in danger of death under the protection of the vehicle equipment, they temporarily lost their combat effectiveness.

Another SUV stopped in front of the ambulance with a long brake sound. Four gunmen got out of the car. One gunman took a crowbar from the trunk, jumped on the driver's door, smashed the window glass, and then tore the glass off. Another gunman got in and pulled the nurse out from the driver's seat.

The back door of the SUV opened, and just as the young nurse was about to be stuffed into the back seat, a car hit the back of the SUV. The SUV rushed forward, squeezing the driver and the gangster between the ambulance and the SUV.

The remaining three gunmen abandoned the nurse and retreated, firing continuously at the car that suddenly approached. One of the gangsters noticed that the driver's door was open, and felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to turn his head to look, a pair of hands came from behind, one hand grabbed his chin, and the other hand pressed his head and twisted it. A crisp sound of bones breaking was heard, and the gangster's neck was broken.

Cui Jian held the falling gangster with his left hand and took the gun from him with his right hand. After four shots, the two gunmen who were still observing the situation in the car fell to the ground. Cui Jian stepped forward and shot the last gangster who was trapped between the two cars.

Cui Jian picked up the crowbar on the ground and used the pointed end to smash the fuel tank of the ambulance, causing the gasoline to flow everywhere.

Cui Jian picked up the nurse with one hand and got into the SUV. He put the nurse on the passenger seat without turning off the engine, closed the door, reversed the car, and fired at the ground. The sparks from the bullet hitting the ground ignited the gasoline leaking from the ambulance. Before the fire broke out, Cui Jian closed the driver's window and drove away.

Fifteen minutes later, the second support team of Shanye found the off-road vehicle according to the location and pursuit. The off-road vehicle was burning in flames. The burning place was near the river, and no one was seen around. Later, according to the police investigation, a container truck passed by the off-road vehicle before it caught fire, but no footage of people boarding the vehicle was captured.

……

The young nurse was Hai Lan. When Cui Jian carried her away from the SUV, she vomited blood twice in Cui Jian's arms and woke up coughing. In a daze, Hai Lan seemed to have returned to the last moment of near death. She stretched out her hand to touch Cui Jian's face, but it fell down too weakly and fell into a coma again.

Cui Jian was not in a hurry, he didn't bleed, there might be DNA on the car, but he burned it. He put Hailan aside and started to burn the SUV. After the SUV caught fire, the container safe house also arrived at the scene, and Cui Jian carried Hailan to the safe house.

Cui Jian then stood aside and watched the people busy. The container attendant was shouting and demanding medical support and help. He could handle encrypted files, fight, and die, but he didn't know how to deal with Hai Lan's injuries, and he was panicked at the time.

Cui Jian comforted the staff on duty and said that he had checked Hai Lan's body and found no external injuries, so it should be an internal organ injury.

The person on duty almost fainted after hearing this, and picked up the phone anxiously: "Who can help me?"

The container truck continued to drive for 17 minutes and stopped at the door of a private internal medicine clinic. A nurse had already pushed a stretcher. Cui Jian helped put Hailan on the stretcher. He looked at the private clinic and saw a gunman standing at the door of the clinic. It was obvious that the doctors and nurses in this clinic were passively accepting patients.

In some countries such as South Korea, the level and equipment of such specialized private clinics are no worse than those of public hospitals.

Cui Jian left in a container truck. According to the instructions of the person on duty, he took off his bloody shirt and changed into a set of training clothes. Cui Jian asked the person on duty to call Duanmu, who told Cui Jian that Duanmu's phone was turned off. The captain of the special service team 2 was the one who handled Hai Lan's matter. Duanmu handed over the command of the team 1 to him before the operation.

The container truck drove for fifteen minutes and pulled over to a safe spot. Cui Jian got out of the car and looked around. There was a beach on the left and a cliff on the right.

Cui Jian looked back and saw that there were street lights on the road, but it was obviously in a remote place. That's it? Don't you prepare a car for yourself? Cui Jian only knew that this was a beach near Hancheng University. Hancheng University was located in the northern suburbs, so the road he was on should be Huanbei Road.

In the middle of the night, not to mention that there were few cars on the road, even if there were cars, how many people would dare to stop and give him a ride? Sure enough, after waiting for half an hour, he encountered seven cars, and without exception, all of them ignored Cui Jian's thumbs up on the roadside. His mobile phone had been collected by the container attendant, and he had some cash in his pocket, but he had to spend the money.

Looking up at the sky, it was dark without any light or direction. I thought it wouldn't rain, and then it rained. Cui Jian wanted to kick Duanmu and the special forces to death. In addition to considering safety, could he also consider convenience?
