Chapter 153. Case 19: Complex relationships

Maybe it's because this operator receives a lot of so-called whistleblowers like me almost every day, so she has been insisting with me, saying that news needs to be screened, and if everyone wants to find reporters directly, then their talk has no point in existing. Actually, I think she is quite right, but I can't tell this operator directly if I want to find the person involved in the investigation, this kind of must be considered harassment. So I told the operator girl, I said that I was the family member of the mother and son who committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river as reported by your news more than a year ago, and my phone number had been changed, and I needed to notify Reporter Ran, and I really had important news to tell him directly, which we had agreed on a long time ago.

The operator's sister didn't speak, I knew that she was hesitating whether my words were true or false, and at this time, people's hearts were the easiest to shake, so I needed to give her a fierce blow. I told her in a very firm tone that after the incident happened, Reporter Ran was one of the first reporters to arrive at the scene, and he had my phone, but I didn't have his. Then I told the operator sister about what I saw in the news almost as it was, and I even emphasized that if you don't believe it, you can call and ask Reporter Ran yourself to see if he wants to contact me.

Maybe it was because of this sentence that I successfully took the phone number of the reporter surnamed Ran from the operator's sister. I really hope that this incident will not be used to deduct her salary in the future. It's actually not early, and at this time, rashly calling a reporter to discuss a news story more than a year ago seems a bit like harassment. But I believe that if reporter Ran really adheres to the credo of a journalist, then he should help me. However, I feel more fortunate that he has been staying at this newspaper for more than a year, which shows that he is serious and responsible in his work, and from this point of view, this reporter is relatively credible.

After organizing some language in my heart, I called Reporter Ran according to the number provided by the operator's sister. The person answering the phone was slightly tired, as if he had fallen asleep. I first asked him if he was a reporter Ran, and he said yes. I said that I am a family member of a person in a news story you reported more than a year ago, and I have some new investigation now, and I need to contact another person, can you still recall how you learned about the news when it happened?

I actually didn't plan to get the man's photo from Reporter Ran's hand at all, they basically have nothing to do with each other, but since there is a news scene, someone must call him to inform him, based on the relationship between the man and the woman who died is a couple, so in this case, it is impossible for him to call the newspaper to follow up the news. Could it be a man passing by the water's edge at the time? People drown in this big river every day, and if I see a dead body in the river, my first reaction should be to call the police. And I have called the police quite a lot in my life, but most of the time I have reported false police or to obtain internal clues from the police. As a rule of thumb, the 110 operator will usually tell you to send the police to the scene as soon as possible after recording the reason for the report, and before that, they hope that the public will protect the scene and try not to cause a commotion. When I thought of this, I immediately thought that if it was really this man who called the police because he couldn't find the woman and the child, then the police must have left his police number.

Reporter Ran asked me on the phone as if he didn't understand, what are you talking about, I follow up so much news in a year, how can I remember it. I said to reporter Ran, you should still remember that you went to the scene to take photos, and the press release was also written by you, the place where the body was found was in such and such a place, one big and one small, it was a mother-son relationship, and there was a man at the scene who was the woman's boyfriend, it was Valentine's Day last year, do you still have an impression? Reporter Ran didn't think about it for a long time, and told me very firmly that he remembered that such a young child was so pitiful. In fact, I had guessed that he would say this, because from reading his press release, the wording is relatively strong, which means that he is also indignant about this matter, just because he is a journalist, and he only has the right to report, and does not have the right to judge others. But because of this, I also feel that at least as a journalist, this reporter Ran has a relatively good sense of justice.

I told reporter Ran that I am the woman's family, and after the body was found, there has always been a dispute over the division of responsibility, so we have been seeking a judicial solution for so long after the funeral. But now we suddenly can't find the man directly, so I'd like to ask you to tell me how you found out about it. Reporter Ran said that this incident was the scene that our leaders directly called me to go to at that time, saying that the police called and said that two bodies had been recovered, and so many people drowned every year, but these two were mother and son, and I needed to report it, which could arouse the sympathy of readers and so on. I asked reporter Ran, so your news channel is actually the police, right? Reporter Ran said yes. I said okay, that's going to disturb your rest. When I was about to hang up the phone, reporter Ran suddenly said to me, your family must have been very hard these days, please also mourn.

I think I have to say that although I am not a family member, although I am just deceitful to obtain the information I want, but the comfort of reporter Ran to strangers makes me feel very warm in my heart. So I talked to him a little more, and I asked him, when you were at the scene, you once took a picture of that man, can you tell me what kind of mental state that man was at that time? After thinking about it for a while, reporter Ran told me that he was quite broken, and he could see that he hadn't rested for several days. And it seems to be very regretful, regretting that you shouldn't have quarreled with your girlfriend on Valentine's Day, but what's the use of regretting now, can your remorse still find the person you need to repent. When reporter Ran said this, he actually sighed and said that this kind of relationship between couples is a mistake in itself, although the relationship itself is sincere, there is nothing wrong, but as a man, he chose to escape when he could be responsible, and later killed two people in disguise, and even a child, his own child.

I'm glad I talked to Reporter Ran a few more words, judging from his last sentence, it seems that the amount of information is still a bit large. Because I am pretending to be the family of the deceased, the family should know about these things, and if I ask questions, it will be tantamount to revealing the truth. So after Xie Lu thanked reporter Ran for his concern, I hung up the phone. began to ponder his words.

At this moment, if I want to find that man, it is actually very easy, I just need to call Lao Feng after work early tomorrow morning, and ask him to help retrieve the district where I am currently located, accurate to the alarm number of a certain day, and then screen the content record of the alarm, and soon be able to find the man's phone number. Because the person involved in the murder case at the police station is required by the police to cooperate with the investigation at any time within three years, even if the number is changed, the police must be told. So now that you have the number, there are probably more than 10,000 ways to make an appointment with that man.

However, when I analyzed reporter Ran's words, he said that "this kind of relationship is a mistake in itself", which seems to mean that their relationship is not normal, so I speculate that one of the men and women has a family. At the moment, it seems that the man should have a family. The woman died with the child in her arms, it was nothing to do with the child, she could have sent the child to a welfare home or anywhere, and there was no need to drag the child to die together, reporter Ran said that the child belonged to the man, which made me solve my doubts, the woman must have been full of resentment when she decided to commit suicide, and she would not let go of any way she could think of to make this man suffer, which must have included taking away his child.

I was thinking that anger can really make a person lose his mind, so I briefly combed through it and got a basic relationship diagram: the man is stealing outside, but the woman is in love with the man, if it weren't for that, she wouldn't have a child for him, and she would have committed suicide for him. The two have a child, and the man probably has love for the woman, but not so deeply.

As reporter Ran said, this kind of relationship was originally a deformed relationship, but none of us are qualified to judge others from a moral point of view, even if I myself despise such people. After looking at the time, I decided to call Lao Feng now, they are policemen, sometimes day and night are reversed, and Lao Feng has never had the habit of turning off his mobile phone when he sleeps. After calling Lao Feng, he was really ready to go to bed, I briefly told him the help I needed from him, and asked him to help me check it early tomorrow morning, but Lao Feng said no, this can be checked immediately, just log in to their own intranet. If you check it now, of course, it's the best, but I can't do anything today after checking, after a while, Lao Feng sent a message, there are two phone numbers on the message, Lao Feng said that one of them was called when he called the police, and then changed, you can call and try to know the way. After replying to Lao Feng's message to Xie Luxie, Hu Zongren and I stood up and walked out of the room with Mr. Li, and before leaving, we blew out the candle at the door of the screening room, and Hu Zongren personally pasted a talisman as a seal to ensure that the two ghosts in the house would not escape out that night.

We told Mr. Lee to come back early tomorrow morning when we went find the man. Hu Zongren comforted him and said that anyway, you have been closed for so long, and it is not a day or two. Mr. Li smiled a little awkwardly, so that night, we went back to rest. Hu Zongren was so close that I didn't bother to waste gasoline on him, so I drove home alone.

On the way home, my phone rang suddenly, and I picked it up and saw that it was the phone number that reporter Ran called me back.
