Chapter 57: Tai Sui's head breaks ground
"How could I forget?" said to Zhou Tang in a high-end office of the airline's logistics department, a middle-aged woman in uniform and dressed fashionably and beautifully, "16...... Oh no, it's been 17 years!
"Xiaoling is our good sister......"
This woman's name is Ji Mei, and she is one of the female girlfriends of the victim Jin Xiaoling back then.
After retiring from the flight attendant, she has now been promoted to head of the logistics department, thanks to her outstanding ability.
"Then ......," Zhou Tang asked, "Do you remember anything?" We suspect that Jin Xiaoling's disappearance may have been committed by an acquaintance!"
"I know, the police questioned me hundreds of times," Ji Mei said, "I told you everything I knew!
"Unlike most of you who think of flight attendants, Xiaoling is a very conservative woman! Although she was 22 years old at the time, although there were many people pursuing her, she never accepted anyone!
"This can be attested to by me and Song Yuanyuan, oh no, and all my colleagues in our class!
"Xiaoling, what a good girl!"
"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Zhou Tang asked casually.
"Of course!" Ji Mei nodded, "It can be said that she is the most beautiful in our class, but she is beautiful and innocent! Xiaoling's personality is very easy-going, and she has never had an argument with anyone, I don't think anyone will target her!"
"Officer, it's been 17 years since this case, why is the investigation reopened at this time?
"If there is a new situation, can you tell us? 17 years of uncertainty about life and death, it's really worrying......"
Oh......
Listening to Ji Mei's story, Zhou Tang was thoughtful.
Previously, he had speculated that if the murderer really knew Jin Xiaoling, then he must be an admirer of Jin Xiaoling, and he should be a person who loves Jin Xiaoling deeply!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have used formalin to dispose of the corpse, and he might have done so to preserve Jin Xiaoling's appearance......
Therefore, the murderer should not be out of hatred, but for other reasons!
But...... If the murderer loves her, why should he kill her?
If the body was preserved, why was it later dumped in the stadium sewers?
"Ms. Ji Mei," Zhou Tang said very politely, "Since you are so eager to know the situation, I also hope that you can provide some information that we have ignored before!"
"Our goal is the same, it's like finding out the truth about Jin Xiaoling's disappearance, right?"
"Ignored information......" Ji Mei wondered, "what exactly do you want to know?"
"I want to ask you to recall," Zhou Tang said, "Do you still remember, were there any engineers or architects around Jin Xiaoling or in the circle of friends?"
"Oh, that's a strange question?" Ji Mei looked at Zhou Tang curiously and asked, "Architects and engineers...... I'll have to think about it......
"You know, the nature of our work, you meet all kinds of people, but ...... Engineer Architect...... Tsk......" Ji Mei recalled attentively, and then shook her head uncertainly and said, "In my impression, there shouldn't be!"
"But...... You can ask other people again," Ji Mei said, "After Xiaoling disappeared, our sisters once founded a tracing association, I will go back and gather the sisters and help you ask, is it okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Zhou Tang took out his mobile phone, "In that case, let's add a WeChat first! If you have any information, please tell me in WeChat, is it okay?"
"Okay!" Ji Mei happily became friends with Zhou Tang.
"That's right!" Zhou Tang did not forget to instruct, "The case of Jin Xiaoling's disappearance is very important, now the city and the province are investigating, I am from the province, and there will be people from the city brigade who will come to investigate when I go back, because of many mechanism problems, I also hope that you don't reveal it to them, I have looked for you!"
"Oh, okay!" Hearing this, although Ji Mei was skeptical, she still agreed.
"That'...... I won't bother you!" After that, Zhou Tang got up and wanted to leave.
Ji Mei also politely got up to send him off.
However, when Zhou Tang walked to the door, he suddenly asked: "By the way, does Jin Xiaoling like sports very much?
"Huh?" Ji Mei was very curious, "Do you know this?"
"Hehe," Zhou Tang's heart sank for a moment, and said, "I guessed blindly! I guessed right?"
"Yes!" Ji Mei said, "When Jin Xiaoling was in school, she was always on the school cheerleading team, and she had a soft spot for football, and her favorite thing to watch was football games!"
"However, a few of us don't like it, so we don't know much about the specifics, except that when there is a big ball game, she often watches the ball with the boys......"
"Boys......" Zhou Tang asked, "Which boys?"
"Hmm...... It's our school, Anhang Academy," Ji Mei said, "I can't remember too many names now......
As she spoke, Ji Mei picked up a pen and paper, wrote something bit by bit, and then handed it to Zhou Tang and said:
"Oh, these are the names I can still remember now, the first two are also from Anhang Company, and now they are working on the ground staff, you can ask them!
"They weren't in our class, but I've seen it, Jin Xiaoling watched the game with them......"
"Okay!" Zhou Tang put away the note and shook hands with Ji Mei, "Thank you very much for the clues, we ......"
"I don't need to thank you!" Ji Mei looked at Zhou Tang and said, "I just want to know if it's ...... for you to re-investigate the reason for Xiaoling's disappearance."
Speaking of this, Ji Mei's eyes dimmed, obviously she had already comprehended something.
"Yes!" Zhou Tang said, "We have found her body, but more information is not convenient to disclose for the time being, I hope ...... You can keep it a secret for us!
"Otherwise, it will affect our investigation ......"
Hearing Zhou Tang's words, Ji Mei's eyes instantly moistened, and her eyes fell drop by drop, but she didn't cry, but nodded with difficulty......
......
Leaving the logistics department, Zhou Tang walked along the passage of the airport towards the next target.
During this period, Chu Juntao called him again and reported the new situation to him:
"Brother Tang, except for the empty number and the one that has been renamed, all the other numbers that have been contacted with Jin Xiaoling have been confirmed," Chu Juntao said, "None of them are engineers or architects!"
"Next, we can only check those empty numbers or former owners who have changed their names......"
"Very good," Zhou Tang said, "then...... How's that about the other thing I asked you to look up?"
"Oh, the other missing people are, right?" Chu Juntao hurriedly replied, "I have checked, Jin Xiaoling is the only missing flight attendant in the Anzhou area!"
"There's nothing else, next, I'll investigate nationwide, but you still need permission, you have to apply to the captain!"
"Okay!" Zhou Tang said, "I'll call him......!" The two victims in the back ...... Maybe it's not a flight attendant?"
"By the way, there is one more thing," Chu Juntao said, "Anzhou Trade City has no start plan at present, it is said that because there is a fund from unknown origin involved in money laundering, the economic investigation is investigating, so the Trade City project cannot be started for the time being!"
"Damn!" Hearing the news, Zhou Tang scolded immediately.
"What's wrong?" Chu Juntao was puzzled.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Zhou Tang hurriedly said, "Okay, you can just send me the details!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Tang squinted his eyes and whispered:
"Who is so bold that he actually deceived my sister? Dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, then don't blame me for being ruthless......"
