Chapter 35: Investigation and Collection of Evidence

In the police station, the white pigeon and the stone have been staring intently at the computer screen, looking at the time display, it is 5:40.

"Look, she's here!" The white dove pointed to the girl on the screen and said to the stone.

"Then let's double the speed and see where she disappears?"

Bai Ge turned up the speed of the video, and saw Lu Xiaoshi walking along Shunyi South Road, everything was normal until she returned to the community where she lived.

"What's going on, why is there nothing in the surveillance of their community?" The white pigeon's fingers tapped a few times on the keyboard, and he said anxiously.

Shi checked the property management website of the community, "Their website shows that the monitoring system of the community has been overhauled and upgraded in the past two days. ”

"How could it be so coincidental? As soon as the front foot was overhauled, there was an accident on the back foot, is this a good time? ”

The stone made the white pigeon Shao'an not impatient, "At least we can know by now that Lu Xiaoshi's disappearance should be between five fifty and six o'clock. You check if there are any vehicles that can be used around this neighborhood at this point in time. ”

The two men turned up the surveillance of the nearby neighborhood and looked closely, and a black van came into their sight. The car passed by Lu Xiaoshi when she was still walking on the road, and then, after a short pause at the door of her community, drove into the community. By the time I reappeared in the monitoring range, it was already 6:01.

"The car's license plate number is AJL810 and it is a seven-seater van. At present, it is under the name of an import and export trading company called out of the original, the owner of the company, Zhou Chuyuan. ”

The two of them looked at each other, and Shi said, "Did the boss and Lao Xie go to find this Zhou Chuyuan?" White Dove, you go ahead and track the car, and I'll give the boss a call. ”

Xiao Rongzheng and Xie Wencong had just parked their car outside an elegant villa when they received a call from Shishi.

"Stone, what's going on?"

"Boss, Bai Ge and I found out that Lu Xiaoshi was very likely to be taken away by a commercial vehicle with a license plate number of AJL810, and that car was owned by Zhou Chuyuan's company."

"Zhou Chuyuan?" , Xiao Rongzheng frowned and responded, "Okay, I know." Thank you for your hard work with the white pigeon, if there is any new news, remember to tell me at any time! ”

"What's going on?" Xie Wencong looked at Xiao Rongzheng's serious face and asked.

"The suspicion of the person we are going to visit has increased again, and it may be a little difficult to deal with for a while." With that, he stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

"Who?" A hoarse voice came over the intercom.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou Chuyuan, we are from the Criminal Police Brigade of City A, and now there is a missing case that needs your cooperation."

There was a pause on the other side of the intercom for a moment, and then the door opened, "Come in." ”

Zhou Chuyuan is also a legend. Without any background, he has created considerable wealth in just a few years on his own. It is said that a magazine tried to interview him, but it was never successful.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a green landscape map hanging on the wall, which makes people feel as if they really see the magnificent mountains and rivers in front of them. All the furnishings in the room are very traditional Chinese style, but when combined, they add a sense of history to the whole room.

"This painting is a fake, and I liked the original painting so much that I asked people to draw a copy of it." A man of medium height but very strong walked out of it, "Two police officers, I am Zhou Chuyuan." ”

"Hello, I'm Xiao Rongzheng, this is our Xie Wencong, Officer Xie." Zhou Chuyuan nodded, led the two of them into the living room, and gave up their seats.

"You two are here so late, what do you want me to help with?" His voice was excessively hoarse, as if something was stuck in his throat and he couldn't get out.

Xiao Rongzheng showed him the photo of Lu Xiaoshi, "This child belongs to your competitor Lu Zhongren's family, she disappeared today." It is said that the two companies have recently made a bid, and I wonder if Mr. Zhou is dissatisfied with the result? "They are all smart people, and his words are not as straightforward as they say.

Zhou Chuyuan just glanced at the photo and looked at Xiao Rongzheng frankly.

"The disappearance of this child really has nothing to do with me, I have never seen her. Moreover, when doing business, it is definitely impossible for everything to go smoothly. Lu Zhongren: If they can win this bid, they must have their own advantages. It's because I'm not as good as others, there's really no need to retaliate or anything, let alone a child! ”

Xiao Rongzheng agreed with his words, "What you said is very right. However, during the time when Lu Xiaoshi was missing, my colleague saw a vehicle in your company's name appear nearby, and it looked suspicious. Is there anything you'd like to explain about this? ”

Zhou Chuyuan was stunned for a moment, "What is the license plate number?" ”

“AJL810。”

"I see, this car has been a shuttle bus used by my company to transport employees to and from work. However, it was stolen just two weeks ago. We have already gone to the record, if you don't believe it, you can check our report records at the time, there is no way to falsify these. ”

He opened the cigar box on the table, took two for Xiao Rongzheng and Xie Wencong, and even if he was rejected, it didn't matter, he lit one and smoked it himself. As he moved, half of his arm was exposed. I saw that on this muscular and strong arm, there was a circular scar about five millimeters in diameter.

Xiao Rongzheng looked at the scar thoughtfully.

"And what about the original driver? How's it going? ”

"The driver has been hospitalized", Zhou Chuyuan spat out a smoke ring, "He was originally a person who was going to retire, he drove all year round, and he had a serious lumbar muscle strain." Anyway, there was no car, so I just took his vacation and asked him to recuperate. After all, life is priceless compared to money. ”

"What you said is indeed reasonable, a friend of mine often says this sentence, I don't know if you know him, his name is Xu Benli."

Zhou Chuyuan just smiled and shook his head, "This is just the simplest truth in this world, even children know it." Officer Xiao's friend may have the same sentiment as me. ”

"That's what Mr. Zhou said. Then, we will not disturb Mr. Zhou's rest, if you need Mr. Zhou's help in the future, I hope you can actively cooperate. ”

"I know everything." Zhou Chuyuan smiled and nodded.

"Then we won't bother, Lao Xie, let's go!"

After Xiao Rongzheng finished speaking, he took Xie Wencong and walked out, until he reached the gate, but he suddenly turned around, saluted Zhou Chuyuan, who had sent them out all the way, and then left without looking back.

Zhou Chuyuan looked at the vehicle that disappeared into the night, stretched out a clenched hand, and returned Xiao Rongzheng with a salute in the direction where the car disappeared.

On the way back, Xie Wencong asked puzzledly, "Boss, why did you salute Zhou Chuyuan just now?" ”

Xiao Rongzheng thought back to the scar on Zhou Chuyuan's hand, and was a little unbearable, "Zhou Chuyuan, he used to be our invisible comrade-in-arms. ”

"What do you mean......" Xie Wencong was taken aback.

"Do you remember that in 2013, Xu Ranran's father, Xu Benli, led the 'Watch Operation'?"

"Of course, I remember that I was still in school at the time, and my classmates watched the TV every day and waited for news. At that time, almost half of the police force was deployed to participate in the operation. ”

"That's right, the success of the 'Watch Operation' lies in the fact that our comrades went deep into the enemy and revealed all the information about the other side to us."

Xie Wencong suddenly realized, "Zhou Chuyuan, is it our dark chess?" No wonder he has more than a decade of information gaps. But, Boss, how do you see that? ”

Xiao Rongzheng smiled mysteriously, "This, you can only understand it, not say it, think about it yourself." Okay, let's go back to the bureau first and see how the white doves are doing. ”

“……”

Xu Ranran and Cheng Han followed the address to find Qin Shuang's home, and when they were close to the door of this house, they could clearly hear the quarrel between the two adults inside.

The two people outside the door looked at each other, and after a short struggle, they finally knocked on the door. The argument inside stopped, and then a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard opened the door.

"What?" As he spoke, his eyes were full of vigilance. Indeed, it is rare to knock on someone's door on such a big night.

Cheng Han explained with a smile, "Sir, we are from the Municipal Criminal Police Brigade, and we now need your daughter's assistance in something." As he spoke, he showed the documents of the two of them.

The man obviously didn't think of the identities of the two, and after carefully looking at the documents, he crooked his neck and shouted into the room, "Qin Shuang, come out, someone is looking for you!" Then he turned around and looked at Cheng Han and them with a smile on his face, "Do you want the two comrades to come in and drink a cup of hot water?" ”

Xu Ranran waved his hand and refused, "Don't bother, we'll ask Qin Shuang a few questions at the door and leave." ”

"Oh, okay, okay. Qin Shuang, what are you grinding and chirping, don't you know if anyone is waiting? ”

While talking, a girl with long flowing hair lazily walked up to them, "Who, I'm doing my homework!" ”

"I don't believe you're doing your homework!" The man pursed his lips disdainfully, "These two are the sisters of the criminal police brigade, people came to ask you something, and tell them everything you know." With that, he retreated into the room and closed the door for them.

"Looking for me?" Qin Shuang hugged his shoulders and said with one leg shaking.

"Lu Xiaoshi, do you know each other?"

"I know, but I'm not familiar with it." Her eyes dodged.

Xu Ranran saw her discomfort, and then asked, "Unfamiliar, to what extent?" Are you just unfamiliar with her, or do you have disgust? ”

Don't look at Xu Ranran, who is usually a lively and cheerful girl in front of Cheng Han and them. But when it really comes to the critical moment, it actually becomes aggressive in an instant.

Qin Shuang couldn't resist the pressure and admitted, "I don't have a good impression of her, but there is no rule in this world that you can't hate someone." ”

"You can have the right to hate people, but you don't have the right to make people disappear."

"What do you mean by that?" Qin Shuang finally realized that something was wrong.

"Did you physically threaten Lu Xiaoshi to keep her away from Peng Bu, otherwise you would make her disappear?"

Qin Shuang's eyes widened, "Lu, Lu Xiaoshi, she disappeared?" ”

"Isn't this your wish come true, why are you so surprised?"

"What does it mean that my wish has come true, this kind of thing cannot be said casually." Qin Shuang hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, and denied it, "I'm usually a little stingy, and my academic performance is not very top-notch." However, the most I can do is talk about this kind of thing casually, and use her scared look to satisfy my vanity.

I'm not a child, I won't do this kind of illegal thing! Besides, I still have to take the college entrance examination, although it can't be a prestigious school, but at least I have to be admitted to a university. If I leave any bad comments on my file at this juncture, won't all my years of hard work be in vain? ”

What she said was reasonable and well-founded, and for a while Xu Ranran couldn't refute it.

"Since you value your file so much, why do you bully Lu Xiaoshi in front of so many people at school. Didn't you think about the innocence of your file at that time? Cheng Han's words made Qin Shuang's face change color in an instant.

"I, I ......"

Cheng Han patted her on the shoulder and comforted, "Okay, we know that you really have nothing to do with Lu Xiaoshi's disappearance." However, I also hope that you can be kind to your classmates in the future, and sometimes, violence is not the cool way. On the contrary, it is easier for you to become the target of public criticism, because trouble comes from the mouth. ”

After speaking, she left here with Xu Ranran. Only Qin Shuang was left standing at the door, thoughtful.

"Hey, we've come around in such a big circle, why haven't we found anything!" Xu Ranran sighed dejectedly while driving the car.

"This kind of thing is never rushed." Cheng Han comforted on the side, "Now it seems that this matter is definitely not just a contradiction between students. There must be other reasons, but we haven't found out yet. ”

"I'm really worried about that child, and I don't know what happened to her now."

"Xiao Rongzheng, hasn't he already contacted various train stations, bus stations and highway entrances, as long as there is news of this child, he will notify us directly. Even if you can't find her for the time being, at least you can guarantee that she won't leave the range of City A. ”

Looking at the convenience store outside the window, Cheng Han turned his head and asked Xu Ranran, "Is there enough instant noodles in the office?" Would you like to buy some more? ”

"It should be enough, I seem to remember that two days ago, the boss just ordered three boxes from the Internet. There are also a lot of braised eggs and braised chicken feet, which should taste good. ”

"That's okay, after eating instant noodles for a while, I'll make you a table of delicious food."

As soon as she heard that there was something delicious, Xu Ranran immediately had her spirits, "Then I want to eat braised pork, winter melon pork rib soup, braised prawns, preserved egg tofu, and oyster sauce lettuce." ”

Looking at Xu Ranran, who was ordering seriously, Cheng Han felt that she was simply a living treasure, "How many people do you want to eat when you order so much?" ”

"Oops, Han. If I can't eat it now, can't I get past the addiction of ordering food? ”

"Okay, okay, Miss Xu, do you want to add a few more dishes?"

Just as the two of them were trying to get rid of today's fatigue with jokes, Cheng Han's mobile phone rang, and when he picked it up, the words 'Cui Shunyu' were displayed on it.

She picked it up a little reluctantly, "Hey? ”

"Dr. Cheng, do you have time to have a supper with you today?" Choi Sun-woo stood in his courtyard, looking up at the sky.

Cheng Han was a little impatient by his words, "Mr. Cui, I already told you that I have a boyfriend, and it is impossible to eat with you alone!" If you really don't have much to do, you might as well spend more time with your father! ”

Cui Shunyu just laughed lowly, and was not angry because of Cheng Han's impatience, "My father really doesn't need me to accompany him!" ”

"What do you mean?" Cheng Han was puzzled.

"He's almost well, so I'd like to treat you to a meal and celebrate."

Cheng Han thought about Yao Hongyu's actions some time ago, and felt incredible, "Don't you all say ......"

"They all say he's dying? I thought so too, but all of a sudden. How about such a good thing, can you enjoy a meal with your face? ”

"This is indeed a good thing, so I would like to congratulate Mr. Cui here. However, I have already said that I have a boyfriend and will not eat alone with you. Also, if there is nothing wrong in the future, please don't call me casually. Thank you! ”

After speaking, Cheng Han didn't give Cui Shunyu any chance to refute, so he hung up the phone.

"What's wrong? The guy surnamed Cui came to date you again? Xu Ranran listened to it for a long time and already knew a rough idea.

Cheng Han sighed helplessly, "Yes, I thought that he wouldn't have any more ideas when he got it out last time, who knew he would come to such a place." However, he just said that his father, Cui Jay, is recovering well. ”

"What? Didn't they all say some time ago that there was no way to return to the sky, and it came to the point of dividing the will? How did it suddenly get better? Xu Ranran also felt incredible.

"Who knows!"

Cui Shunyu, who was hung up, stared at his mobile phone for a long time, and laughed out loud, "Hey, I really don't know how to be good!" ”
