Criminal Psychology Book 1

Chapter 34: Balance

The kidnapper tried his best to hijack a bus and take hostages for one result. What could it be if it wasn't smart?

However, the key question was, what was the result that he wanted?

Seeing Lin Chen and Xing Conglian in contemplation, Mr. Chairman of the Hongjing Highway couldn't help but ask, "Lin... Mr. Lin, what does the kidnapper mean?"

"He probably wanted to say that he'll give us an hour to find out what he wants. Otherwise, he's going to kill someone after 90 minutes." Lin Chen wanted to pick up his cup of tea, but his hand was held down by Xing Conglian.

"What?! Kill the hostage?!" In an instant, the chairman felt cold sweat flow down his back. "This is simply too vicious and heartless! Didn't you say he wouldn't hurt those children!"

Lin Chen shook his head slightly, avoiding the question as he dialed Huang Ze's number.

"How's it going?" Huang Ze's voice was slightly tense.

"The kidnapper took the initiative to expose his location. Wang Chao will send you the specific location later."

"What do you mean by taking the initiative to expose his location?"

"He took the initiative to expose it because he's asking reporters to accompany you to be present. And he also called me Teacher Jiang."

"Why would he call you Teacher Jiang?" Huang Ze turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhe, who was sulking in the car. While his mind was spinning, he understood what Lin Chen meant. In fact, earlier today, when many reporters invariably asked to go on the highway to cover the Candy Bandit case, he already felt something was off. Although the case had attracted much attention, it seemed too trivial for dozens of TV reporters to arrive all at the same time.

"My guess is that the kidnapper is using Jiang Zhe to lure these reporters onto the highway for a very simple reason. When things reach their climax, he wants reporters to be present. As for how he's using Jiang Zhe, I think it's best for you to interview Teacher Jiang about this matter."

Lin Chen's words made Huang Ze speechless.

"Did the kidnappers make any demands?" Huang Ze walked towards the police car as he kept talking on the phone.

"He wants answers."

"What answers?"

"He didn't say."

"So from beginning to end, you still haven't figured out what the kidnapper's demands are?"

Lin Chen replied, "But I guess with that young man's ability to plan, he probably has all the clues laid out in front of us."

However, regarding the clues and answers, these weren't issues that Huang Ze cared about. All he cared about was how the case would be resolved and whether the results after the settlement were within a controllable range. He had already reached the side of the police car when he responded back to Lin Chen. "Tell Xing Conglian that the Hongjing Special Police Force is already halfway there. Send me the specific location of the kidnapper and send a copy to the captain of the special forces."

When Huang Ze finished speaking, he hung up.

He looked at Jiang Zhe, who was sitting in the back, bent down, and knocked on the car window.

In the car, Jiang Zhe reluctantly turned his head. Seeing that it was Huang Ze, Jiang Zhe's eyes gleamed with expectations again.

Huang Ze took the initiative to open the door and got in.

When Huang Ze's voice cut off, Lin Chen held the phone and slightly lowered his eyes.
