Chapter 4: The Dead

Huang Jun didn't continue to ask, nor did he ask anything more. Countless adventures have taught him what kind of connection there must be in things that seem unreasonable. But what really happened?

"Du Jun, are you sure that Ye Mei in the boss's mouth is a noble girlfriend?" After a while, Huang Jun asked.

"I'm sure, because this incident is too bizarre, I paid special attention to it at the time, and I also visited some local old people and saw some more detailed photos, I can easily see from the photos that that person is Ye Mei, not only the same name, the same appearance, even the same dress, I can't be wrong" Du Jun said.

"So, what did you do after that?" Huang Jun asked.

"After I came back, I told Gao Shang about it, but Gao Shang didn't believe me, and thought that I was provoking a relationship between them, and since then, our relationship has not been good," Du Jun said.

"Are you saying that you told Gao Gao about it at the time, and then Gao Shang didn't believe it, and then your relationship deteriorated rapidly?" Huang Jun asked.

"Yes," Du Jun replied.

"However, this doesn't make sense," Huang Jun shook his head when he heard this.

"Where doesn't it make sense? Are you suspecting me of lying? Du Jun's face was obviously not good-looking.

"No, no, I don't suspect you of lying, in fact I think all these things you said to me are all the truth, don't you think it was strange at the time?" Huang Jun asked.

"Oh? Where's the blame? When Du Jun heard this, he naturally understood that there was something in Huang Jun's words.

"First of all, Gao Shang is a detective, as a police officer, you should maintain a minimum of curiosity, it is impossible to hear this thing without suspicion at all, don't you think Gao Shang's attitude was a little too resolute at that time?" Huang Jun asked.

"When you say this, it seems to be like this, when Gao Shang's face changed when he heard the news, it seemed that he suddenly changed a person, and he lost his temper with me inexplicably, I also felt strange at the time, this is different from his usual performance" Du Jun nodded.

"Another point, think about it, you and Gao Shang are good friends who grew up since childhood, and it is impossible for them not to trust each other at all, but why did Gao Shang not investigate carefully when he heard about this, and insisted that you were provoking the relationship between them?" Huang Jun asked.

"That's true, but do you mean that Ye Mei played a role in this?" Du Jun asked.

"That's not necessarily, I can't say it right now, the information is insufficient, it's just that this matter is too bizarre, and there is another point, I want to ask you" Huang Jun said while pondering.

"You said, if you can help, I will." Du Jun said in a deep voice.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask, about Ye Mei, after you heard the news that she had already died, did you do some necessary investigation on her?" Huang Jundao.

Du Jun thought for a while and said, "That's the case, I was also going to arrest a fugitive on that business trip, and the time was very tight." Dangjin also did some preliminary investigation by the way, but did not conduct some very in-depth investigation, how to say, after I got into a stiff fight with Gao Shang because of this matter, I didn't have the heart to think about these things, and then I ran into this matter."

"So, what I want to ask is, where is Ye Mei?" Huang Jundao.

"Ye Mei? As soon as you said that, I remembered that we haven't seen her since the accident," Du Jun said.

"Never seen again? Didn't you try to find her? Huang Jun asked.

"Few people know that Ye Mei is a noble girlfriend, of course, except for me, so ordinary people definitely don't want to go here, and I didn't think about going to her because of the past" Du Jun said.

"It's not right, it's still not right," Huang Jun muttered.

"It's really not right, in this situation, Ye Mei should appear, as a noble girlfriend, there is no reason why she shouldn't appear," Du Jun said.

"In this way, you go to find Ye Mei first," Huang Jun said in a deep voice.

"If so, is that really okay? Why don't we try to find the murderer? Du Jun said puzzled.

"Do you know who the killer is?" Huang Jun asked.

"This, I don't know," Du Jun said.

"Isn't that over, if you don't know, how do you want to check it, now Ye Mei is our only clue, such a big thing happened, Ye Mei's reaction is too strange, don't you think it's suspicious? I have a gut feeling that if we follow this clue, we will definitely be able to find out," Huang Jundao said.

Du Jun thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, then okay, I'll follow this clue first."

Huang Jun nodded, and suddenly said: "By the way, don't just check the current Ye Mei, but also check the past Ye Mei."

"Ye Mei in the past? What do you mean? Du Jun asked puzzled.

"Didn't you say that you saw Ye Mei at that boss's house? If you go to that place and look it up, there will definitely be new discoveries," Huang Jun said.

Du Jun nodded hesitantly, but didn't say anything more. He stood up and walked out without saying a word. Huang Jun looked at Du Jun's distant figure, and suddenly felt tired in his heart. Maybe he didn't have a deep friendship with Gao Shang, but seeing an old friend leave like this, Huang Jun's heart was still a little uncomfortable, especially since this person had just spoken to him a few days ago.

Another week passed in a blink of an eye, and in this week, Huang Jun didn't do anything, just followed the usual routine of work and rest, slept, drank, and didn't see other guests. Of course, it's not that I'm worried about Du Jun's safety, but according to Huang Jun's experience, the longer Du Jun investigates, the more troublesome the case becomes.

Finally, one day, of course, when Huang Jun came home, he saw Du Jun anxiously pacing in front of his house, looking at the expression on his face, Huang Jun knew that something must have happened.

"Mr. Huang, you're back, I've been waiting for you for a long time" Du Jun said as soon as he saw Huang Jun.

"What, there's a discovery?" Huang Jun is still expressionless. Du Jun looked at Huang Jun's somewhat underwhelming expression, and suddenly realized why Gao Shang could be friends with Huang Jun, because the two were very similar in this regard, and they both had that very cool feeling, but at this time, Du Jun would not pay attention to these.

"Of course, moreover, it's a major discovery," Du Jun said this, unable to hide the excitement on his face.

"Okay, let's go in and talk," Huang Jun said, opening the door and letting Du Jun in.

"You can tell me more about what you found this time," Huang said.

"That's right, after the last conversation, according to your request, Mr. Huang, we investigated Ye Mei's whereabouts in detail, including Ye Mei's past resume. We found something strange in this investigation," Du Jun said.

"Oh, let's hear it," Huang Jun said.

"First of all, we found out that Ye Mei was missing, no matter how much manpower we sent, Ye Mei never appeared in this city again, just like the world has evaporated. If I hadn't seen her in person at night, I would have thought that this person was simply a noble imagination, but I have seen her, and I will not forget it, so there must be something hidden in this," Du Jun said.

"Don't talk about those speculative things, just talk about the key points," Huang Jun said.

"Yes, I mean that after we invested manpower to find Ye Mei, we checked on the public security identity system, and the result was that we couldn't find anything, we searched and compared according to Ye Mei's ID card information and portrait, and the result was that there was no such person in the whole country," Du Jun said.

"So, what do you mean?" Huang Jun asked.

"But this is impossible, even if this person's identity is fake, but as long as his portrait is real, we can also find out the true identity of this person through technical comparison, but now we can't find it," Du Jun said helplessly.

"So that's where your investigation went?" Huang Jun asked.

"Of course not, then I remembered what Mr. Huang told me, you said that we should not only check her present, but also her past, so we went back to that place, and then asked the boss of the year, this time, sure enough, we have made a new discovery" Du Jun said.

"Oh?"

"After we went back, we found out that there was indeed a Ye Mei there, and she died a long time ago, according to the portrait and ID number information above, we found that this dead Ye Mei is the Ye Mei we are looking for, because there was a car accident at the time, and her identity information was also cancelled by the police station after she died" Du Jundao.

"Oh, there's such a thing? So, do you mean to say that the Ye Mei you saw is actually a ghost? Huang Jun said.

"Mr. Huang, I'm not saying that I don't believe that there are no ghosts in this world, but I had close contact with Ye Mei that day, and from my professional point of view, this Ye Mei can't be a ghost, because we police have to face so many people every day, so we have our own judgment method for whether a person is alive or dead, so I can be sure that Ye Mei is definitely a big living person" Du Jun said.

So, how do you explain it? Could it be that the local people are mistaken? Huang Jun said.

"Well, it's impossible. I asked the doctor who was in charge of treating Ye Mei at the time, and the doctor told me that when he entered, he could be sure that Ye Mei had no physical signs, and I also saw photos of the car accident at that time, and from the photos, it is unlikely that a person will survive such a big trauma," Du Jun said.

"However, the problem now is that Ye Mei not only survived, but also appeared in front of you alive," Huang Jun said.

"yes, that's what I can't figure out. And through the investigation, I also found that there was also a problem with the time of Ye Mei's death," Du Jun said.

"Oh? What's the problem? Huang Jun said.

"How can we say it, we checked the entry records and found that the year Ye Mei died was the year she arrived in this city," Du Jun said.

"But even if we don't ask how a dead person walked from one city to another, what I want to ask is that if you now need an ID card and personal information to go out, if the person's identity information has been cancelled, how can she pass through the security check of a train or plane?" Huang Jun asked.
