Chapter 18: The Mystery of the Confusion
Zhao Gaoqiang came with a young and beautiful woman, and the first time I saw this woman, I knew that this was a smart woman, otherwise it would be impossible to snatch Duan Hong from Zeng Rou's hands.
There is no doubt that at this time, she came in person not only to clear her suspicions, but also to increase Duan Hong's good impression of her, and she felt that she would never give up in times of trouble.
Sure enough, when Duan Hong saw the woman, his face showed a deep emotion.
"Brother Duan, it's all my brother's fault, Miao Miao had an accident, I have gone with my brother to look for it near the hospital this morning, and I also asked all my friends to look for it together, Miao Miao is so well-behaved, it will be fine." When the woman came to Duan Hong's side, her small mouth was flattened, and her eyes turned red.
"Pretend, my son was kidnapped by you, and you give me back my son." Zeng Rou was a little excited when she saw the woman, if Qi Yan hadn't hurriedly grabbed her, it was estimated that she would have to stage a full martial arts show again.
"Zeng Rou, don't make trouble unreasonably, okay?" Duan Hong immediately stood in front of the woman.
"Brother Duan, don't care, if Sister Zeng can get angry when she beats me, then let Sister Zeng beat me, but I really don't know where Miao Miao is, I like him so much, how can I kidnap him." The woman grabbed Duan Hong's arm and wanted to step forward.
"Xiaomin, this matter has nothing to do with you." Duan Hong looked at the woman's appearance and immediately grabbed her and began to comfort her.
I watched the woman acting coldly, and then turned my gaze to Zhao Zhigao on the side.
At first glance, this is a slightly honest man, less than forty years old, tall, still bluffing by his appearance alone, and there is a white bandage on the back of his head.
"Your name is Zhao Zhigao?" As I spoke, I motioned for him to sit down first.
"I am." Zhao Zhigao nodded and sat down slightly hunched.
"Tell me about the situation." I asked, gesturing.
"Okay, at that time, I was going to take Miao Miao home according to Mr. Duan's instructions, and Miao Miao was already running towards me at that time, because all my mind was on Miao Miao, so I didn't pay attention to the people coming from behind, and I didn't know that it was bad until I was hit in the back of the head, but it was too late at that time, and when I woke up, Miao Miao was gone." Zhao Zhigao said with a look of self-reproach.
"Since Miao Miao was missing at that time, why didn't you call the police?" I continued.
"At that time, I woke up and was going to go to the hospital to look for it first, and I happened to encounter the police investigating Miao Miao, I thought someone had called the police, so I didn't report it again, just bandaged the wound and went back." Zhao Zhigao explained.
"Then you didn't think about contacting Duan Hong at that time?"
"I called, but I didn't get through."
"Really? As far as I know, Duan Hong was with your sister at the time, don't you know to call your sister's mobile phone if you can't get through to Duan Hong's phone? I glanced at the woman snuggled in Duan Hong's arms wiping the corners of her eyes.
"Comrade policeman, that's the case, yesterday was my birthday, Brother Duan wanted to celebrate me, because I didn't want to be disturbed, I and Brother Duan's mobile phones were turned off at that time, so I didn't know." When the woman said this, she began to sobble again, and said to Duan Hong, "It's all my fault." ”
"You are talking nonsense, you called me in the hospital at that time, and asked Miao Miao to listen to the phone, you must have asked Miao Miao to go to the parking lot on the phone, and he lost it." Zeng Rou yelled at the woman, and then looked at Duan Hong and said.
Hearing Zeng Rou's words, I nodded, which was similar to what I had guessed before, and then I looked at Zhao Zhigao again, "How tall are you?" ”
"One meter eighty-two." Zhao Zhigao was stunned by the question, but he still answered honestly.
"Can you feel what the man behind you hit you with at that time?"
Zhao Zhigao thought for a while and said, "It should be an iron rod, I fainted all of a sudden." ”
"Think about it carefully, when you were waiting for Miao Miao before, did you notice anything strange in the underground parking lot, or did you smell anything when that person approached you?" I pondered for a moment and continued to ask.
"Nope." Zhao Zhigao still shook his head.
"Okay, you can sign it if it's okay." I handed the details of Qi Yan's record to Zhao Zhigao, and at the same time told him: "Don't leave Qingshan City for a while, if we have clues, we will ask you to come back to assist in the investigation." ”
"Okay, okay, I promise not to leave." Zhao Zhigao nodded hurriedly after signing.
"Well, you and your sister can go back first."
"What about me?" Duan Hong said suddenly.
"There's nothing to do with you for the time being, you can leave." I glanced at Duan Hong and said lightly.
"Comrade policeman, how can you let them go?" Seeing the three of them leaving, Zeng Rou suddenly became anxious.
"Ms. Zeng, don't get excited, at present, there is no evidence that your son's disappearance has anything to do with them, but don't worry, we will act as soon as possible to help you find your son."
"In addition, please find a few more photos of your son's usual life, we will post them on the Internet, and also send them to the police station below, and ask them to look for your son together." I looked at Zeng Rou and comforted her.
"Okay, that's troublesome comrade police." Zeng Rou said with a grateful expression.
"You accompany Ms. Zeng first, and I'll investigate the case." I said to Qi Yan and came to Uncle Huang's desk.
"Uncle Huang, how's it going? Did you find anything? ”
"No, the criminal is very cunning and didn't leave any clues, but according to my analysis, these cases should belong to the same person, his modus operandi is the same, all of them are unexpected, and they disappeared quickly, and they are either born with a sharp mind, or they are anti-reconnaissance masters." Uncle Huang put the cigarette in his other hand, and handed me a copy of the document in his free hand.
Liu Kai, 3 years old, his father is a maintenance worker and his mother is a supermarket salesperson, and the date of his disappearance is October 3.
Sun Hao, four-and-a-half-year-old, father is an advertising company employee, mother is a financial accountant, and the date of disappearance is October 9.
Zhu Xiaodi, 4 years old, his father is a taxi driver, and his mother is a housewife, and the date of disappearance is October 16.
I took the pen from the table and added another line of information underneath.
Duan Miao, three and a half years old, his father is the owner of a foreign trade company, and his mother is a housewife, and the date of disappearance is October 24.
"What's your opinion?" Uncle Huang asked.
"It's not about getting rich." I pondered for a moment and said, so far, the four missing boys are all between three and five years old, and the oldest is only four and a half years old, and they have begun to understand things, and it stands to reason that human traffickers rarely touch such a large child.
And except for Duan Miao, the family situation of the first three children is very ordinary, if it is kidnapped by gangsters, it is impossible to find the children of this kind of family, and for such a long time, the three families have not received any extortion calls.
Then at least the point of seeking wealth can be ruled out, and it is not a grudge against others, because the families of these missing children cannot be connected at all, if there is anything in common, it is that they are all boys, they are all about the same age, and they are all in Ancheng District.
"Since it's not for money, what do you think his purpose is?" Uncle Huang continued to ask me.
"It's hard to say, but this person must have an ulterior secret, or this person has a problem with his brain, and now the only clue is a boy between the ages of three and five, since the other party is specifically looking for a boy of this age, it means that there must be something related to this." I thought about it and said.
"Your analysis is good, just now I have asked three groups of people to help find out whether all such big boys in Ancheng District have died unexpectedly or disappeared in the past six months." Uncle Huang looked at me and nodded, seeming to be very pleased.
"Uncle Huang, do you say these children are still alive?" I asked suddenly.
Uncle Huang also stopped talking for a while, because according to normal logic, the criminal's repeated actions indicate that the probability that those children are still alive is very low.
"No matter what, we must investigate the case clearly, this kind of person is alive, and the harm is too great." Uncle Huang took a hard puff of cigarette and said.
"Yes, it's so inhuman to attack such a young child." Although I have seen many murderous gangsters before, the attack on children for no reason still makes me feel nameless anger in my heart, and I can't wait to solve the case now.
"I'm going to go to the place where the three boys disappeared before and see if I can find any clues." Uncle Huang thought for a while and said.
"I'll go with you." I said.
"You stay, although there is no monitoring of the hospital parking lot, there are always clues outside, as long as there is surveillance to the exit of the parking lot, you will definitely be able to find clues." Uncle Huang said to me.
"That's not in a hurry, now Zhang Wei hasn't come back yet, and the monitoring can come back and watch it again, I also want to walk around the scene, maybe I can find something." I prefer to do on-the-spot investigation rather than sit in my office and look at surveillance or data, because as long as the criminal is still human, it is impossible to be completely seamless.
Now my biggest fear is something else messing around, after all, after reading that book, I have come to understand that the world is more than what I see with my eyes.
Ordinary people are a little better, if it's really that kind of thing, I'm also worried that Uncle Huang won't be able to deal with it.
"Alright then, you can come with me." Uncle Huang finally agreed to my proposal, and as soon as he said hello, we left directly.
"Uncle Huang, senior brother, where are you going?" Qi Yan happened to come out of the office, and when she saw us going out, she couldn't help but ask.
"Go to the place where the three boys disappeared before." I said it directly.
"It's eleven o'clock, won't you go after dinner?" Qi Yan looked at the watch on his wrist and couldn't help but say.
"Don't be in a hurry to eat, just eat casually outside, if Zhang Wei comes back first, you will check the monitoring with him, it is best to make a record of every car that comes out, it is really not possible We can use the stupidest way, check one by one." I said a little harshly, before I came back, I went around the underground parking lot with Uncle Huang, and even if it was full, there were only about 100 cars, so even if it was checked one by one, it would be absolutely fine.
"Okay, senior brother!" Qi Yan nodded.
