He Yu didn't expect that he would meet Xu Mingzhi at this time. He knew that he had made a lot of mistakes today, so he opened the car door cautiously. Before Xu Mingzhi could speak, he lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "I was wrong, but I am It's excusable. I dropped my phone, the screen is broken, and I can't answer calls." As he said that, he took out the phone with the screen broken into a mosaic and gave Xu Mingzhi a look to prove himself.
Xu Mingzhi's anger did not diminish, and he shouted: "What are you doing this afternoon!"
When He Yu heard this, he suddenly became excited and said, "I found the person who took Jin Jiaojiao's phone!"
Jin Jiaojiao?
This can be considered a long-lost name.
Although Jin Jiaojiao's case had just passed not long ago, there were many things going on during this period, and to Xu Mingzhi, it seemed like a long time had passed.
After he frowned and glanced at He Yu, his anger was still lingering: "Don't you know what is the most important thing now? Besides, Jin Jiaojiao's case is over, why are you still investigating this!"
Although Xu Mingzhi was strict at work, he always had a good attitude. He Yu probably didn't expect that he would be so angry today. Unexpectedly, he couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. When Jin Jiaojiao's case was closed in a hurry, Xu Mingzhi was in a bad mood for many days. He knew that he was unwilling to give up, so he was so concerned about Jin Jiaojiao's matter.
He pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Seeing him like this, Xu Mingzhi felt that his attitude just now was a bit too much, so he suppressed his anger and calmed down: "Go in first." After that, he turned around and left.
He Yu chased after him: "Then Jin Jiaojiao..." As soon as he started to speak, he was interrupted by Xu Mingzhi: "Let's talk about this matter slowly."
Seeing that the anger in his expression seemed to be uncontrollable, He Yu hurriedly shut his mouth.
Yu Guang was waiting not far away. After the two came over, He Yu lowered his head. Seeing this, Yu Guang asked, "What's going on?"
Xu Mingzhi snorted and said nothing.
After He Yu glanced at Xu Ming, he smiled bitterly at Yu Guang.
I didn’t ask too many questions from the corner of my eye.
After the three of them went upstairs, Lao Wang was already waiting.
"I have asked all Zhou Jiaoran's relatives and friends, but no one can contact her." Lao Wang looked solemn as he spoke and glanced at He Yu.
He Yu listened to this name he had never heard before, and finally realized the seriousness of the case at this time.
"Do you have any clues about the places where the three victims provided by Zhang Liangcheng lived?" Xu Mingzhi asked.
Lao Wang handed over a page of information: "Only Wu Lanlan's was found."
Xu Mingzhi took the information and glanced at it. It was an old community with no surveillance. Then, he handed the information to Yu Guang. After the latter took it, he asked, "Did you send someone over?"
Lao Wang replied: "The people are already there, but they haven't gone up yet. They are waiting for your order."
"Is there anyone inside who can be sure?" Xu Mingzhi asked.
Lao Wang shook his head: "The windows are all closed with curtains, and there are no lights inside. However, I have contacted the landlord and said that the last contact with the tenant was three months ago. The other party has already rented this house. It has been several years, and it was agreed from the beginning that the rent would be paid every six months. But in the past two years, the utility bills have not been much, and it seems that there is no one living there all the time.”
"Does the landlord know who lives inside?" Xu Minzhi asked with a frown.
Lao Wang replied: "The landlord said that his mother was responsible for the connection when the house was rented out, but his mother passed away the year before last. The contract signed at that time can no longer be found, so he does not know the identity of the other party. Only A WeChat. In the past two years, they have been in contact through WeChat and have never met in person."
"Have you checked WeChat?" Xu Mingzhi asked again.
Lao Wang shook his head: "I checked, it's Wu Lanlan's WeChat account."
After hearing this, Xu Mingzhi was silent for a moment and then said: "Let someone go up and knock on the door first to test. If there is no one inside, contact the landlord and open the door."
"The landlord is not local." Lao Wang smiled bitterly.
"Then ask for the landlord's permission and break in." Xu Mingzhi glanced at him, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Lao Wang immediately became solemn and said, "Okay." He turned around and went to inform.
Xu Mingzhi entered the office with Yu Guang. As soon as he entered, He Yu poked his head in at the door: "Boss, what should I do?"
Xu Mingzhi glared at him and said, "You will ask Lao Wang later for the information on the three victims provided by Zhang Liangcheng. You are responsible for contacting their families and arranging for them to come and identify the bodies."
He Yu said "Oh" and disappeared from the door.
Not long after, Lao Wang suddenly knocked on the door again and came in, saying: "Wu Lanlan's brother sent me a photo, take a look." As he spoke, he had already walked to the desk.
Out of the corner of his eye, he stepped aside to give him some space.
The photo was placed on the table, and Xu Mingzhi looked down at it from the corner of his eye.
This is a back view, and the pixels are a bit poor. Apart from the fact that it is a man, nothing else can be seen at all.
"Wu Lanlan's address was also provided by her brother. I think Wu Lanlan's brother doesn't seem to have no feelings for this sister. At least he was very anxious after hearing about Wu Lanlan's accident. It's hard to understand why his sister disappeared. He hasn't been able to find her for two or three years," Lao Wang said with emotion from the side.
Xu Mingzhi frowned and stared at the photo for a long time, but couldn't see anything, so he had to give up, raised his head and asked Lao Wang: "Wu Lanlan, her brother has been to Wu Lanlan's residence?"
Lao Wang shook his head and said, "He sent something to Wu Lanlan once, and the address she gave him was that address."
As he finished speaking, the phone rang.
The news came from Wu Lanlan's residence.
There was indeed no one in the house. They had broken the door and got in. No one had lived in it for a while. There was already a layer of dust on the table. They took a preliminary look and found that there were no personal items inside except some common furniture and daily necessities.
Xu Mingzhi was not surprised. This was Zhang Xueyi's style. He would not leave any obvious clues.
This clue can basically be considered broken at this point.
However, Xu Mingzhi is no longer disappointed.
After Lao Wang went out, he lit a cigarette and stood by the window and started smoking.
At this time, rain began to fall outside.
After glancing at him out of the corner of his eye, he flipped through the information on the table.
As time passed, the rain outside gradually became heavier, and the sound of rain made the whole world seem quiet.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he looked up from the pile of documents on the table and said to Xu Mingzhi's back: "Zhang Xueyi will definitely need a car if he wants to take Zhou Jiaoran away. With his caution, it is impossible to take a taxi or rent a car. He himself His car is still parked in Yuehe City, so there is only one way for him to get it, and that is from Liu Jinye. Maybe we can start from Liu Jinye. In addition to Shen Qingen's car, he should have other customers' cars there. .”
Xu Mingzhi turned around suddenly, and after taking a fixed look at him under the yellow light, he immediately walked towards the door of the office.
This matter is not difficult to investigate, but it takes time.
Forty minutes later, I finally got something.
They found that in addition to Shen Qingen's car, there were two other cars that had been sent to Liu Jinye in the past month and had not been retrieved.
The place where Liu Jinye repaired his car has also been locked. It is on the southwest outskirts of the city, not far from where Zhou Jiaoran got off the car.
However, at that time, I was only focused on checking where Shen Qingen's car went, but forgot to check where the car came from.
At this time, it was completely dark outside.
Under the black rain curtain, two cars rushed out of the compound and headed towards the southwest suburbs.
After about thirty minutes, the group finally found the abandoned factory building hidden in the woods. This factory building is quite large. It used to be an auto parts assembly factory. When the manufacturer moved away in the early 2000s, the factory building became vacant and was later subleased to other people. Most of them were used as warehouses. Liu Jinye's repair shop moved here about four years ago, around the time Liu Jinye and Zhang Xueyi met. It is estimated that Zhang Xueyi contributed a lot behind this.
In the dark night, the factory was completely dark.
As soon as Xu Mingzhi and others entered, the silence here was broken by the sound of dogs barking.
In the corner behind the gate, a black creature rushed out, its white fangs shining coldly in the light.
It took everyone a lot of effort to restrain the dog. After a lot of effort, I found Liu Jinye's repair shop.
However, when the lights came on, the two customers' cars were parked.
The hope in Xu Mingzhi's heart was extinguished again, and he couldn't help but look back at Yu Guang.
Yu Guang's face was also a little gloomy.
Obviously, what they thought of, Zhang Xueyi also thought of.
The group of people returned without success. Xu Mingzhi and Yu Guang were sitting in the car. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit heavy.
Is there really nothing we can do?
Xu Mingzhi couldn't help but raised his hand and hammered the steering wheel. The shaking steering wheel made the car tilt. The road was slippery, and the car almost rushed into the opposite lane and hit an oncoming car.
However, this thrill made Xu Mingzhi calm down a lot.
At this moment, Xu Mingzhi's phone rang.
It was a call from Lao Wang, saying that the Technology Department's surveillance near Futian Village had discovered the gray Hyundai sedan that had appeared near Huangli Village on June 1.
Xu Mingzhi suddenly became energetic.
This can't be a coincidence.
It could also be a coincidence!
He quickly asked: "Have you found out where this car ended up?"
"Out of the city!" Lao Wang replied, "The last place he appeared was near the farm."
Xu Mingyi was stunned, is Zhang Xueyi so bold? How dare you take people there?
This is not quite his style!
However, doubts remained doubts, and there was no delay in the movements of his hands. The car suddenly turned around and headed towards the farm.
Along the way, Xu Mingzhi almost drove the car so fast. He even turned on his police lights and didn't turn them off until he was about a few kilometers away from the farm.
The journey was originally about forty minutes, but he drove for thirty minutes and didn't even arrive.
It rained all night yesterday, and the road to the farm became muddy. After Xu Mingzhi drove halfway, it was really difficult to drive, so he simply stopped the car, got out of the car with Yu Guang in the rain, and walked inside.
The car that had followed them to the repair shop had been left behind.
The two of them walked in the rain for about ten minutes before finally seeing the farm through the rain. The door to the farm was closed, and it was impossible to see if anyone was inside.
Xu Mingzhi asked Yu Guang to wait where he was, while he walked around to the side and climbed up the wall with ease.
Sure enough, there was a light on inside.
After Xu Mingzhi gave a signal from Yu Guang, he jumped off the wall and entered inside.
After a while, Yu Guang also jumped in.
Xu Mingzhi glanced at his hand that had not yet removed the gauze. He understood from the corner of his eye and shook his head to express that it was okay.
