That night, Dai Xiaowen and Dai Xiaoman, the siblings, were detained in Nancheng City Bureau and interrogated overnight.

Dai Xiaowen was unwilling to speak at first, Song Wen could see that the child wanted to do his best to maintain his organization, until the boy confirmed that Dai Xiaoman was indeed here.

After a brief meeting between the two siblings, Dai Xiaowen finally began to cooperate and confessed various situations.

Lu Siyu and Song Wen didn't go back at night, so they dealt with it in the duty room and simply slept for a while.

After a night of summarization and interrogation of several personnel, various information has been gathered together.

What is certain now is that the person behind these children is called Yu Niangniang, and she will give orders through the management of so-called aunts and uncles.

Boys and girls are separated, and each separation point has a distinct level, and someone specializes in the lives of the children.

They rely on renting and selling manpower as income, and the usual theft, begging, trading, etc., are enough to pay back.

The rabbit hole for raising children has existed in Nancheng for a long time, but because the children live in the old neighborhoods around the city, they are very vigilant to change their residences in time. Even if one of them is discovered, it will not affect the other places. Normal operation.

Dai Xiaowen and Dai Xiaoman wrote out the addresses where the two people lived and the corresponding time respectively. Because of the long time, they can only write a rough idea.Once they were in the same community, but in different buildings.

Ye Zheng marked all the places they had rented and made a data model to determine that those rabbit holes were located in an area in the south of Nancheng, some of which were close to subway lines and convenient transportation.

On the map, among the many communities in the south of Nancheng, dots of light lit up.

Some are grayed out, indicating that they are old sites that have been abandoned.

One of the ones marked with an asterisk is the place where Dai Xiaowen lived recently, but it is possible that the children had already received the news last night and moved out overnight.

Several players who had been fighting all night were waiting for Song Wen to decide what to do next.

Xu Youyou directly raised her head and asked, "Head, what should I do now?"

Du Yong asked: "Do we need to inform the community and the nearby branch to investigate?"

"These communities are old communities, and the security and prevention are very poor." Song Wen looked at the map and frowned, "I found one or two, it doesn't make sense to us."

I didn’t sleep well last night. Lu Siyuqiang looked at the map with energy, and whispered from the side: "Our actions are definitely not as fast as the other party’s news. Even if there are no ghosts in the police station, it is difficult to prevent and investigate. Information leaked in the process."

Now they have arrested Dai Xiaoman and Dai Xiaowen brothers and sisters. The other party probably has discovered that something is wrong and is trying to transfer them.

At this time, there are new actions, which will only start the investigation. Once the investigation begins, the opponent will quickly dormant, like a fish scattered and sinking to the bottom. As long as you don't catch most of it, you can't hurt the opponent's lifeline.

When they want to catch the remaining people, it will be even more difficult.

Song Wen stood up, leaned against the desk, propped his chin with his right hand and said, "You must think of a safe way to uproot these rabbit holes at the same time."

Ye Zheng turned the pen in his hand: "This is too difficult. The main criminal is not sure. We can't get all the addresses. How can we get the list and react quickly to find these places together?"

Song Wen looked at the map projected on the wall, thinking intently. He leaned down and squinted his eyes slightly to look at the area: "There must be some methods we haven't thought of yet..."

Those children, there may be dozens to hundreds of people, they are mixed among the millions of people in this city, like tiny iron sand, unremarkable.

They haven't found the magnet, so they can't sort them out.

Du Yong sighed: "I think the Yu Niangniang gang has been able to raise those children for so many years without being discovered by others. This thing in itself is very amazing.

Ye Zheng played with the electronic pen in his hand and said: "In this age of magic, the more bizarre things are, the more likely they are to be realized."

Xu Youyou agrees: "There are only a few people in the Anti-abduction Office. Yu Niangniang is also in the Three Caves of Rabbits. In addition, they are so alert and have various sources of information. Maybe they even bribed officials. How easy is it to get caught? Arrived."

Lu Siyu looked down and thought for a moment, then rubbed his temples with his fingers: "I think you can think about how to start from the perspective of the fish empress."

He has always been good at thinking about problems from the perspective of the offender, guessing the psychology of the offender, and unlocking the code of the case.Although the current situation is not a criminal case, the same applies.

As long as it is a criminal, there is the motive, the method and the steps of the crime.

Especially this kind of large-scale operation that lasts for several years.

Lu Siyu opened his eyes, licked his lips and continued: "If it were me, I would choose these rabbit holes in the same area, not too far apart."

Song Wen nodded in agreement: "In order to facilitate management, take care of each other."

Lu Siyu's expression became more serious, and continued reasoning: "Those aunts and uncles should have an employment relationship with Yu Niangniang. She will choose someone with an innocent net worth, or even someone who has a criminal record and is difficult to find a job. Education and care."

This is inferred from the testimony in hand, and there are some common characteristics in the descriptions of Dai Xiaoman and Dai Xiaowen.

These people that others are afraid to hire are safe and loyal to the fish empress.Because of their origin, because of their characteristics, they can guide the children in the direction she needs.

Those released after serving their sentence have their own network of connections and special communication channels. They spread word of mouth and belong to the sect of Yu Niangniang.

After that, Empress Yu put one innocent child into the Valley of the Evil Man carefully created by herself, and accepted the evil enlightenment.

Ye Zheng was also inspired and continued: "Each child will have different directions and different mentors based on his talents."

Those who teach beautiful women need mother sang, those who teach thieves, those who need more skilled thieves, and those who teach the dead may be desperadoes who are not afraid of life and death.

Besides, these people can hardly get such a good life after they go out except for finding jobs in Yu Niangniang.Naturally, I would be grateful to this fish empress, and after a long period of brainwashing and cultivation, those children have become people who can be used for them.

Other...what else?

Lu Siyu closed his eyes again, and habitually placed his thumb nails beside his mouth. With so many children and so many people, how many or more of these rabbit holes are there in the city?

The children come from many different backgrounds. They are trafficked, run away, and homeless like Dai Xiaoman. They live together.

They are undoubtedly afraid of being discovered, because those children have no identities. After each one is caught, although they can't confess anything, they will cause losses and certain threats to them, and will attract the attention of others.Encountering a severe crackdown may destroy their years of hard work.

They are very cautious, and the children's residences and their partners often change.

Except for Yu Niangniang, the person in charge below may not know all the hidden locations.

Only that woman can control the whole situation.

Children need to live, they will buy things for the children, clothes, sheets, hygiene products, daily necessities and...

Lu Siyu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Song Wen: "I thought about it a little bit, but it hasn't been corrected yet."

Song Wen's heart moved: "What is it?"

Lu Siyu said: "Food, children's food..."

This is extremely important for Lu Siyu, and it is also extremely important for everyone.

The residence can be changed, people can seal, and many things are not so urgent.

Only food, so many children, so many people, need to eat every day.

Song Wen immediately understood: "Their living quarters are scattered. There are several children in each residence. The living environment is old private houses. Such rooms are not suitable for daily purchase and cooking."

Ye Zheng also came to understand: "The kids should eat takeaway every day! But they definitely can't find the outside store separately, so large quantities of food ordered to the private house will cause others to doubt..."

Song Wen continued: "Then...they must have a central kitchen or a fixed place to order food. It is safest to send someone to pick up the food every day! Once we follow the food delivered by the restaurant to search and locate , You can get all the locations."

In other words, the rabbit holes that seem to be hidden are actually connected by dark lines.

Xu Youyou became excited when he heard it from the side: "It's really smart! Then let's ask Dai Xiaoman and Dai Xiaowen to see if they know which restaurant they used to eat."

After analyzing in this way, they finally found a feasible direction. The problem seemed to be difficult, but in fact it was just a different perspective.Find a starting solution to understand the problem, everything will become simple.

Five minutes later, Xu Youyou and Du Yong came out of the interrogation room: "Asked, someone will go to pick up the food for dinner every day. The plastic bag and lunch box say Shi Dewang, and for several years, it has always been. No replacement!"

This answer should correct Lu Siyu's reasoning.

Shi Dewang’s boss, Xu Dewang, was immediately called to the Municipal Bureau. He was a thin, fifty-eight-year-old man who looked honest and didn’t talk much. He admitted everything when asked.

Xu Dewang still remembers that it was an ordinary winter night ten years ago.

At that time, his store was still very small. When the store was proofed and the door was locked, two children squatted at the door. One of them raised his head and asked him, "Uncle, do you have any leftover food here? I haven't eaten for several days."

Tears gleamed in the child's eyes, like stars in the sky.

Xu Dewang looked at the two flimsy, shrunken children, with a moment of relentless heart, and greeted them in.The temperature is close to zero, but in order to save electricity, the air conditioner was turned off early in his small restaurant, and he only turned on a dim yellow light to illuminate the whole simple shop.There was some rice left in the business during the day, so he added two eggs and cooked egg fried rice for the children.

When the food first came, the children did not dare to eat, but looked at him.

"Uncle, we don't have that much money."

"It's okay, no money for this meal, I invite you."

The children just gorged themselves to eat.

After the meal, the children seemed to warm up. One child said, "Uncle, this is the best meal I have ever eaten."

"Oh, it's a pity that this restaurant may not be open for too long..." Xu Dewang looked at the strange child, and suddenly had a desire to talk. The location here is biased. This small restaurant is often unable to make ends meet. Recently, his wife is sick and his daughter is rebellious. I'm busy on my own, and maybe I'll return to my hometown with my family soon and make another living.

The two children listened to him in silence, Xu Dewang kindly packed the rest of the meal, let them eat tomorrow, and finally gave them twenty yuan.

The kid told him, "Uncle, you are a good person, and a good person will be rewarded."

Xu Dewang didn't take the matter of that night to heart, and since then, he has never seen the two children again.

Three months later, just a few days before he decided to abandon the small restaurant and return to his hometown, a mysterious woman suddenly appeared.

The woman was nearly forty years old, with a graceful figure and luxurious dress, which was incompatible with this humble little restaurant. It was the woman who ordered eight meals from here.

Later, women became regulars here, day and night, no matter how hot or cold, they never stopped.More and more foods are ordered. Later, the woman will not come in person, but will let some other people come to pick up the food. They will order the first day and come the next day.

Xu Dewang's business is getting better and better.He cured his wife with the money he earned, and his rebellious daughter finally returned home to help his parents. He modified the storefront and expanded the store.

Probably it is true that good people are rewarded, and their rewards are finally here.

Now, it has been ten years, and these ten years are like a dream.

Xu Dewang retracted his thoughts and raised his head to look at the policeman in front of him, "...They have ordered meals from me for ten years, from a few foods at the beginning to 120 foods at the highest peak. Nearly a hundred servings of food."

"Why did they choose your store?"

Xu Dewang shook his head dumbly.

"Do you know who the other party is?"

Xu Dewang shook his head again: "I don't know, I am a small restaurant... As long as they pay, I will sell it."

"Do you remember what that woman looks like?"

"The time interval is too long, I can't remember."

"How is the money settled?"

"The meal is set on the first day, and the payment is settled when the meal is taken. It is all cash. Sometimes the money is scattered and there is a lot of change."

"Where will the food go?"

Xu Dewang continued to shook his head: "I don't know... someone came to pick it up by myself. I was curious about it. But the other party didn't want to say too much. At first it was just one person to pick it up, and later it became a few people to pick it up and give it away. Go to different places."

"These foods may be related to a major child abduction case. Our police hope that you can cooperate with the investigation." said the young and capable policeman in front of him.

Xu Dewang was a little caught off guard. Those people who ordered meals for so long turned out to be bad guys?

He thought of the woman, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

Then he felt a little regretful. If the biggest customer was gone, the small restaurant would not be necessary to open it. He had saved some money over the years and might have to go back to retirement.

So far, this is not just a matter that the criminal investigation team can handle.

Song Wen reported it to the Gu Bureau. Gu Bureau attached great importance to this matter. It quickly became a major operation of the Criminal Investigation Joint Anti-abduction Office. The Gu Bureau even recruited many police officers in charge of public security.

The members of the task force formulated several plans in order to act foolproof.

The specific action was planned for the night a few days later, that is, the day of frost on the lunar solar terms, and was named Operation Frost.

In order to avoid leaks, the grassroots criminal police and civilian police involved were not told in advance the true purpose of the operation.

The Municipal Bureau mobilized materials, and they processed the disposable tableware in Xu Dewang's restaurant. A total of 98 disposable tableware was added. The bottom of all the tableware was added with a compartment and a micro-positioner was pasted in the compartment.

The entire school of fish will surface, with nowhere to hide.

They are one step closer to the underground kingdom of Yu Niangniang...
