157: Strong alliance to capture drug traffickers

Jiang Zhi didn't say anything, closed the file, took a pen from the car, and wrote a string of numbers on the paper: "The numbers he gave to Zhou Xufang."

Qiao Nanchu looked at the numbers.

Jiang Zhi asked, "What do they mean?"

He pondered, "If they're not transaction information, they should be identity codes."

To understand what they specifically meant, he needed to investigate.

Jiang Zhi took a document from the back seat: "This is the invitation list for the premiere and the internal staff for the event; there should be someone from that gang among them."

Qiao Nanchu glanced through it but before he finished looking, his mobile phone rang.

It was a call from the station. He listened for half a minute, hung up, and then asked Jiang Zhi, "When is Zhou Xufang going to pay the ransom?"

Jiang Zhi said, "Tomorrow, at seven o'clock in the evening."

Qiao Nanchu took a cigarette from the pack and held it between his fingers, "I know why they're waiting for tomorrow."
