Chapter 14: Direction

After leaving school, Li Xiangnian went straight to the old-fashioned neighborhood nearby.

"Ahem!" After getting into the car, Li Xiangnian coughed violently, his face turned red, and he hurriedly opened the thermos cup and took a sip of water. Leaned back in his seat and rested for a moment before relieving.

"......Huh" Li Xiangnian sat in the driver's seat and looked at his watch like a prostration, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was extremely time-consuming to check the monitoring, if he didn't finish the check earlier, then tomorrow he would probably miss the treatment plan discussed with the doctor.

It was a minute or two before he started the car and entered the complex.

When he came to the door of the property, he happened to meet the property manager in casual clothes.

"Hello, what's the matter?" The property manager is a man who is not tall, only in his thirties and has a bald Mediterranean hairstyle, and when he saw Li Xiangnian wearing a police uniform, he was about to walk into the property, so he quickened his pace and came up, "Oh yes, my surname is Liu, my name is Liu Chao, the manager of the property." ”

"Hello." Li Xiangnian took out his police ID, "My name is Li Xiangnian, and a student has disappeared in your community, and I want to adjust the surveillance." ”

"Well, follow me." Manager Liu made an inviting gesture and walked into the property with Li Xiangnian, "Student? Primary school student? ”

Li Xiangnian shook his head slightly: "High school student." ”

"High school students? Female? ”

"Male."

"Male? Missing? How is this possible? Manager Liu said hello to a few colleagues passing by, scratching his head and feeling a little puzzled.

"How could it be?" Li Xiangnian frowned and asked, his voice was a little hoarse, which was also related to his current physical condition.

Manager Liu opened the door of the monitoring room and said, "Who would kidnap a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy these days." ”

"It's not kidnapping, it's running away from home." Li Xiangnian walked into the monitoring room.

"Oh...... Also, high school students are under a lot of pressure to study. Manager Liu stretched out his voice and said in a somewhat meaningful tone, "Xiao Chen! Don't sleep! This is Officer Lee, come and take a look at the surveillance. ”

"Uh-oh." The Xiao Chen called by Manager Liu was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, and he didn't expect someone to come in just now, and he was sleeping with his legs on the computer desk, and now he was snorted by Manager Liu, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly sat upright, "You...... Which monitor do you want to turn on? Our monitoring here is automatically saved for 30 days, which means that you can adjust the monitoring within 30 days. ”

Li Xiangnian opened his notebook: "At 12 o'clock in the evening of May 14, the up and down time does not exceed five minutes. When I first came here, I saw that there was surveillance in front of each of your residential buildings, right? Then please adjust the monitoring in front of Building 11 during this time period. ”

"Okay, you wait a minute." Xiao Chen looked for it.

After about a few minutes, Xiao Chen raised his head and said, "It's out." ”

Li Xiangnian and Manager Liu both walked over.

Xiao Chen adjusted the time to 11:55, and then started playing: "This is the monitoring in front of Building 11, you said that it will fluctuate up and down for five minutes, then let's start at 11:55." ”

"Okay." Li Xiangnian has no opinion.

Manager Liu also watched with wide eyes and curiosity.

Time passed slowly, and no one entered or exited the doors of the six units under surveillance. After all, it was already midnight, and most of the residents were asleep.

When the time reached 0:03 in the morning, Li Xiangnian, Manager Liu, and Xiao Chen, who were already a little bored, were all in good spirits.

"Officer Li, isn't this it?"

"Eighty percent is, Manager Liu, you see, he is still wearing a school uniform."

In the midst of shouting, Li Xiangnian looked at the scene on the computer screen. A man wearing a school uniform, carrying a schoolbag and a peaked cap walked out of Unit 2 and soon walked out of the monitoring range. During this period, the person who looked like Lu Tao did not raise his head, and his face was always hidden under the cap.

"Where did he go?" Li Xiangnian asked.

"Huh? Oh, he's going this way, it's supposed to be ...... Building VII. Xiao Chen clicked again, and quickly called up the monitoring of Building 7 during that period, "Hey, he's just leaving from here." ”

As Xiao Chen guessed, the person on the computer screen had indeed walked from Building 11 to Building 7.

"Next up...... Building IV. When the person disappeared from the surveillance, Xiao Chen continued to push down, and saw his figure from the surveillance of Building No. 4, "He turned a corner, Building No. 3, eh, he's out of the community, that direction...... It should be on the flyover to cross the road. ”

"Gone?" When the monitoring was finished, Li Xiangnian asked.

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly: "Yes, we are only responsible for the monitoring of the community, and you have to find another place to check the monitoring outside." ”

"Understood." Li Xiangnian opened the notebook and recorded it again, "Do you have a map of the community?" ”

"Of course, I'll go get it." Manager Liu was very positive, perhaps keen to be involved in a case.

"Thank you."

After a few more minutes, Manager Liu gasped and walked in with a list in his hand, "This is it." ”

Li Xiangnian took the list, and the floor plan of their community was printed on the list, "Can I take it?" ”

"Of course, we have a lot of these maps here." Manager Liu waved his hand and said very generously.

"By the way, can that surveillance be intercepted?" Li Xiangnian said to Xiao Chen after a cursory look at the map.

Xiao Chen opened his mouth and froze for a few seconds and said, "Yes, yes, but it's a bit time-consuming, you can either record it directly with your mobile phone." ”

"Is that okay?" Li Xiangnian took out his mobile phone and said.

"I'll record it for you." Xiao Chen took Li Xiangnian's mobile phone and recorded a total of five surveillance videos on his mobile phone, "Oh, it's done." ”

Li Xiangnian turned on his mobile phone and watched the video, and nodded, "It's a lot more convenient, so I won't bother you." ”

"Hey! There's nothing to bother with, it's a matter of effort! Manager Liu said with a smile.

"Well, that's it for now, if anything happens later, I'll probably come back and trouble you again." Li Xiangnian put away his mobile phone and notebook.

"No problem! If you have any questions, come to us, we can definitely help. Manager Liu was still as proud as ever.

"Then take your leave." Li Xiangnian nodded to the two and left the property.

After walking out of the property, he did not get into the car, but found Building 11, walked straight west from Building 11, passed Building 7 to the front of Building 3, and then walked to the south, and just walked to the next intersection he saw the main entrance of the community.

took out the map and drew the route of Lu Tao leaving the community on it, and he also followed the direction of Lu Tao in the monitoring and left the community.
