Yu Hao knew that Huang Ting, as a good buddy, had always been trying to help Chen Yekai find a partner. Still, saying it straight out like that was really too awkward, and Chen Yekai probably wouldn't be interested in dating in such a situation.

Zhou Sheng held his forehead with one hand, looking like he really didn't want to see what was happening right now.

After Huang Ting cracked such an untimely joke, he sat at one side and took off his police cap. Zhou Sheng asked, "How is it? We should at least get an explanation ba? All of us almost lost our lives for this."

Huang Ting said, "It's already been transferred to the investigation team for them to deal with, and all the suspects are under control as well. The internal situation in the city bureau is a bit messy right now, so I can only get a clear understanding of the situation in a few days. The identities of the kidnappers are a little complicated. One of them is a retired Sanshou athlete from the provincial team......"

Everyone was a little surprised.

Zhou Sheng said, "The one who fought with me?"

"I think so." Huang Ting said, "He's a very difficult opponent. At present, I think one of them was more familiar with the county's surroundings and roads, and they were ready to take Qihang there to find an abandoned fish pond and......un."

"They wanted to find a place to kill me." Ou Qihang said, "That way, there would no longer be anyone who knows their secrets."

The ward fell silent for a moment. Yu Hao had to admit that that was the most reasonable explanation. Previously, Ou Qihang had thought of ending his life, so they wanted to fabricate a suicide scenario and let him go missing for a while before someone finds his corpse. A lot of clues would end with that then.

Perhaps, Ou Qihang could vaguely guess that he was already in danger, which was why he left the compressed files in Xiao Yujun's laptop and hinted to Zhou Sheng about its password.

"What I can't figure out," Zhou Sheng was eating his rice and some rice grains had stuck onto his face. Yu Hao cleaned them off for him, and Zhou Sheng asked Ou Qihang, "was how you managed to free your hands to send us your message for help and ask us to go save you."

Yu Hao, "......"

Ou Qihang understood within seconds. "I sent it blindly. Once I got caught, I immediately felt about for my phone in my back pocket. Right after I sent the message and deleted it, they searched it out and took my phone away."

Zhou Sheng responded with an "un", "Amazing, I'd rather hold onto your thigh than a wall for support."

Yu Hao thought, the two of you are way too kickass, could you guys get any better at fabricating a story right in front of Huang Ting?! Their questions and answers even flowed together so naturally too. At that moment, Yu Hao felt like his IQ got thoroughly and completely crushed.

Fu Liqun picked up a call, and from the look on his face, it should be from Cen Shan. He quickly got up and went out to take the call. Everyone chatted idly for a while longer. Yu Hao didn't know what Huang Ting was allowed to say, so they discussed the meals that Zhou Sheng's father had brought over.

Huang Ting, "I haven't eaten yet."

Yu Hao, "Tear off the lid of a lunch box, I'll share some with you?"

Huang Ting, "Thanks." He actually didn't mind it at all, and began eating right after accepting it. He was obviously really hungry by now.

After they finished eating, several people began chatting again. Huang Ting seemed to be thinking with his eyes closed, but not a moment later, even breathing sounds could be heard from him — he had fallen asleep.
