Chapter 60: Shang Guowei's Recollections
"Da Yifan used to live at No. 102 of Building 5, and he should be very familiar with the other neighbors of Building 5, I want to lead you to find him."
"Da Yifan doesn't know anything about the situation on No. 103, I'm not sure, but he should know about other neighbors."
"After the woman surnamed Zang lived in No. 103, Building 5, there must still be people living in the cadre school compound. As long as you can find someone in the know, you will definitely be able to know Zang Xiaorong's whereabouts. β
"Thank you for your hard work, Curator Geng."
"Captain Zhao, you don't need to be polite to me. I hope that the information I have provided will help you find the woman with the surname Zang. Da Yifan is the principal of Qing'anjiang Normal College, and I will lead you to him now. β
Five people walked out of the guest room, and five people took three tricycles to Qing'anjiang Normal College - Master Wen beckoned another tricycle.
Zhao Zimeng and Curator Geng sat in a tricycle, Ling Hu Yunfei and Ma Jianping sat in a tricycle, and Lin Di took a tricycle.
Master Wen and two other coachmen were windy, and three tricycles sped quickly on the asphalt road.
Qing'anjiang Normal University is at the end of an alley diagonally opposite the Qing'anjiang shopping mall.
Qing'anjiang shopping mall is in the center of the city, which is the most prosperous area of Qing'anjiang.
Half an hour later, Master Wen's tricycle drove into the alley diagonally opposite the Qing'anjiang shopping mall.
Two minutes later, the tricycle stopped in front of the gate of Qing'anjiang Normal College.
Curator Geng stepped out of the tricycle, walked to the window of the communication room, said a few words to a doorman in his sixties, and then led the four of them into the school gate.
The three coachmen remained outside the school gates.
After having the clues provided by Director Geng, Zhao Zimeng temporarily gave up the idea of going to the Huanggang Grain Depot to investigate.
Zang Yurong hid deeply.
But Zhao Zimeng has reason to believe that when the horse has a hoof, there is a mistake in Baimi, as long as Zang Yurong is still in Qing'an River, he and his comrades-in-arms will definitely be able to find her traces, as long as they find Zang Yurong's traces, Jiecheng and Fa Zheng will have nothing to hide.
Although the process of finding Zang Yurong was very hard, Zhao Zimeng had enough mental preparation.
After walking a section of the boulevard, an ancient building appeared in front of me, with high cornices, red lacquered columns, hollow doors and windows, and nine stone steps.
Curator Geng led the four people up to the second floor.
At the end of the corridor on the second floor, there is an office, and on the door of the office hangs a wooden sign with the words "Dean's Office" written on it.
Curator Geng knocked on the door three times.
"Please come in."
Curator Geng gently pushed the door open.
Suddenly, a person rushed out of the office: "Director Geng, it was the gust of wind that blew you, a great writer, here!" β
The speaker, about sixty-five years old, wears a beige cap on his head, is slightly fat, wears a pair of eyes, and wears a gray suit.
The person who spoke grabbed Curator Geng's hand tightly and shook it vigorously.
"Dean Da, I am going to the Sanbao Hall for nothing, these are the comrades of the criminal investigation team of the Jingxi Public Security Bureau, this is Captain Zhao, they want to find someone, I suddenly remembered Dean Da."
"Sit downβsit down."
Dean Da led the five people to the couch and sat down, then walked over to a coffee table, opened the glass door, and took out five glasses and a tea caddy.
Curator Geng stood up and walked to the dean, one of them poured boiling water to scald the teacup, and the other poured tea leaves into the teacup.
At this time, a girl about twenty-five years old walked in from outside the door: "Dean Da, I'll come." The girl picked up the thermos on the coffee table, filled the five teacups, closed the lid, and brought the teacups one by one to the coffee table in front of the sofa.
"Secretary Yu, get busy with your going!"
Secretary Yu exited the office and gently closed the door.
Zhao Zimeng explained the outline of the case.
Dean Da pondered for a moment, and then said, "Captain Zhao, what do you want to inquire about, please tell me." β
"Dean Da, have you ever lived in 102, Building 5, Cadre School Compound?" Zhao Zimeng said.
"Yes, I've lived there."
"When did you leave there?"
"At the end of fifteen years ago, I left."
"Zang Yurong left Jingjiang in the spring of the previous year fourteen years ago, look at this copy of your ID card." Zhao Zimeng took out a copy of his ID card from his bag and handed it to the dean.
Dean Da carefully looked at the copy of his ID card: "No. 103, Building 5, Cadre School Compound, No. 103 is next to No. 102. β
"This person should have lived in No. 103 of Building 5 after you left the cadre school - or you left your household registration at No. 103 Building 5." Zhao Zimeng said.
"Dean Da, among the other neighbors, have any of them left the cadre school compound after you?" Curator Geng said.
"Yes, No. 101, No. 104, No. 105, when I left, they didn't mean to leave."
"Are they all decentralized cadres like you?" Zhao Zimeng said.
"They are all decentralized cadres, and the work of implementing the policy will not be completed until the end of seven or eight years, there are too many people who need to implement the policy, some people's problems are very complicated, and some local leaders are slow to understand the spirit of the above, so it has been delayed again and again."
"Who lives at 103?"
"No. 103 is unoccupied, it has been empty."
"A good house, why is it empty?"
"There were people dead in No. 103, and there was also a tuberculosis patient, and this tuberculosis patient died at No. 103, and there were three people in that room, except for the sick and dead, the other two were hanged."
"Why did you hang yourself?"
"I can't bear the mental blow and torture. Everyone said that 103 was not clean, and some people advised me to find a way to move out of 102 quickly. I'm an atheist, I live at number 102 and I don't take it seriously. β
"No. 103 is unoccupied, but I am quiet - I have lived at No. 102 for several years, and nothing has happened."
Judging from the information provided by Dean Da, it is unlikely that Zang Xiaorong will live in No. 103, and she should have settled down at No. 103. Only when you settle down can you get a household registration, and only when you have a household registration can you apply for a resident ID card.
"Can you still contact the people who live in Nos. 101, 104, and 105?"
"I have their address and place of work, and when I left, they gave me a meal and we left each other's addresses."
"We want to find Zang Xiaorong, who once settled in No. 103, through these people."
"I'm worried that this woman named Zang Xiaorong just borrowed the No. 103 house in the five buildings of the cadre school compound to settle down. The house hadn't been inhabited in years. β
"At the moment, this is the only way we can find Zang Xiaorong." Zhao Zimeng said.
"Okay, Curator Geng, you sit with Captain Zhao and them for a while, and I'll go home and get the notebook. My family lives in the family home behind the school, and it won't be long before that. β
Ten minutes or so, Dean Da walked into his office, holding a palm-sized, very old notebook in his hand.
Dean Da sat on the sofa, opened the notebook, and handed it to Zhao Zimeng's hand.
Lin Di took out a pen and notebook from his bag, and wrote down the addresses of the three people in the notebook.
Shang Guowei, home address: No. 206, Building 3, Second Courtyard of Commerce and Trade, Linhai Road, Jingjiang City, work unit, Jingjiang Water Materials School (101 households);
Dong Shuren, home address, No. 287, Youfang Lane, Jiaoshan Road, Jingxi City, work unit, Jingxi Municipal Bureau of Surveying and Mapping (104 households);
Zhang Qianqian, home address, Room 406, Building 4, Ship College Dormitory Building, No. 6 Wuzhong Road, Wuzhou City (Resident No. 105).
After Lin Di wrote it, Dean Da made some additions: Shang Guowei returned to the material school after implementing the policy and continued to serve as secretary.
After Dong Shuren was rehabilitated, he served as the first leader of the Jingxi Economic and Trade Commission; Zhang Qianqian retired early because of his health.
Dean Da also provided the phone numbers of Shang Guowei and Dong Shuren, and after leaving the cadre school compound, Dean Da still had contact with these two people.
Without waiting for Zhao Zimeng to speak, Dean Da dialed Shang Guowei's phone - Dean Da pressed the speakerphone.
Lin Di turned on the tape recorder and placed it next to the telephone.
If you can explain clearly on the phone, you don't need to run errands, and it will take more than a day to travel from Qing'an River to Jingjiang.
Soon, a man's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, who are you?" β
"Secretary Shang, hello!"
"Who are you?"
"I'm Da Yifan!"
"It's you! We always call him by his first name, how are you polite today. β
"Aren't you busy!"
"Don't be busy, after another year and a half, I'm going to throw this hat on my head. Old man, you are a busy man, and when you call me at this time, there must be something important. β
"You're right, I'm calling to ask you something."
"What's the matter?"
"In 1976, after I left the cadre school compound, was there a woman living in No. 103?"
"Yes, it's a woman in her thirties, very dignified and well-dressed."
This woman must be Zang Xiaorong - that is, Zang Yurong.
Zang Yurong really followed Cheng to Qing'anjiang.
"Guowei, how much do you know about this woman?"
"I don't know anything."
"You don't know anything? Guowei, let me tell you! The comrades of the criminal investigation team of the Jingxi Public Security Bureau came to Jingjiang to investigate this woman, this woman is related to a homicide case, you should think about it. β
"It had something to do with the homicide, and at the time, I thought this woman was very strange."
Zhao Zimeng and Dean Da gestured a few times.
Dean Da understood: "Guowei, I'll let Captain Zhao of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Jingxi Public Security Bureau talk to you directly, okay." β
"Okay!"
Zhao Zimeng took the microphone from Dean Da's hand: "Secretary Shang, hello, my name is Zhao Zimeng, I'm sorry for your trouble." β
"Hello, Captain Zhao, if you want to ask, just ask, we will try to recall and tell you everything I know."
"Thank you, Secretary Shang, we should have come to Jingjiang to visit you in person, it's a bit rude to disturb you in this way, I'm very sorry."
Dean Da put his mouth in front of the microphone: "Guowei, Captain Zhao, they just came from Jingjiang to Qing'anjiang." It was in Jingjiang that they found the trace of that woman. β
"Yifan, don't talk about anything, Captain Zhao, just ask! It is the responsibility and obligation of every citizen to assist the public security organs in handling cases. β
