Chapter 23: Curiosity
Curiosity prompted Zeng Lei to stay and continue to observe the movements of the female reporter, and he quietly approached the female reporter. At this time, the female reporter's mobile phone rang suddenly, and the female reporter took out her mobile phone, walked quickly to the wall, and answered the mobile phone.
Zeng Lei hid in the corner and eavesdropped on the female reporter's speech. The female reporter eagerly said into her mobile phone: "I know, don't say it's dangerous or not, I don't care!" I had to get first-hand information this time! I can't care so much! I can't wait any longer, you don't understand, I've been in this business for five years, you know? It's been five years of obscurity! ......" The female reporter suddenly became a little agitated and hung up her phone angrily.
When Zeng Lei heard the words of the female reporter, his heart trembled, and he felt chest tightness inexplicably, as if someone with great strength suddenly covered his mouth at this time, and it seemed that he even felt difficult to breathe and had no power to fight back. How much she is like herself! Zeng Lei smiled bitterly, isn't she the female version of herself?
Zeng Lei had a hunch that this female reporter also came to investigate the serial disappearance, and she also had the same purpose as himself - she wanted to get ahead with this case! In addition to having this selfishness, Zeng Lei still wants to personally investigate this case and give justice to the victim. He has a clear distinction between love and hate, and has always regarded criminals as enemies. Whenever he thought of criminals maliciously attacking vulnerable women, he hated them so much. He knows that whether it is kidnapping or confinement, it is an intolerable harm to women, not to mention that there may be a greater conspiracy or more serious harm behind it. The most urgent thing now is to solve the case and find the real culprit in order to stop the crime. Only by severely punishing criminals can justice be safeguarded.
Zeng Lei knows that what he really wants to protect is justice, even if he temporarily uses unruly means, he will do it. The tragic death of the informant Dalong once made Zeng Lei confused and blamed himself, and it was an eternal pain in his heart, and he wanted to engrave this pain in his heart, brand it, and move forward with a heavy load! He swore that he would not let Dalong die in vain, and that he would definitely let those who hurt Dalong be punished according to the law. For him, resignation is not an end, but a means, and the only shortcut to solve the case as soon as possible and conveniently. Therefore, he firmly believes that resigning is the most correct choice in his life path, and there is no one.
Now, Zeng Lei is bent on solving the case, and he can't think of any other way except to stare at the lawyer Chen Haoming, who doesn't seem to have any reason to commit the crime. Maybe some clues will be found in Chen Haoming, he is optimistic and persistent.
The female reporter hid outside the law firm, and when she saw a woman walk into the office, she secretly followed behind. After a while, the lady hurried out, followed by the female reporter, and followed closely behind.
Zeng Lei guessed that the female reporter might have a clue, so he decided to follow the female reporter.
Unexpectedly, the female reporter followed the lady into a café on the corner. Ten minutes later, Chen Haoming also walked in, sat down across from the lady, and the two talked to each other. Judging from the way the two people talked, they were probably discussing the case, and it was very likely that this was a new subject. The two talked for nearly an hour, then politely shook hands and said goodbye.
The female reporter waited for the two to walk away, and then walked out of the café disappointed. Zeng Lei looked at the lonely back of the female reporter, and couldn't help frowning, feeling deeply heartbroken.
Disappointment often coexists with hope, but it always feels surprising and unbearable. At this time, Zeng Lei felt like this. The more impatient he is, the more clueless things become; The more he wanted to use his brain, his heart was like grass overgrown; The more he tried to think about it, the more his thoughts began to get jumbled......
