Chapter 11: The Day Before the Disappearance
Xue Ran and Shen Bin came to the courier company and found the courier who delivered the courier to Pan Qingqiang that afternoon.
This courier has always been responsible for the delivery of this community. So he's very familiar with the working environment here. The building where Cheng Yishu and Pan Qingqiang's house are located is also where he often goes.
"You mean Pan Qingqiang, I'm a little impressed. I remembered this woman's name because it was so nice, but I didn't see her very much. Because most of her couriers are directly placed at the doorman, Pan Qingqiang will come to pick them up again when she has time. There were only a few times when she would come and pick it up in person if she had time. But that day's courier was picked up by her in person. ”
"You see clearly, is it this woman?"
"That's right, it's her, it's this woman." Faced with the photo handed over, the courier replied.
"Okay, then can you tell me about her delivery that day."
"That day, that day," the courier recalled carefully, "When I went to deliver the courier in that community, Pan Qingqiang was waiting for me downstairs in the morning. When I saw her, she was on the phone with someone else. And when I got to her, she flashed to the side as soon as she saw me and continued to answer the phone. It wasn't until I hung up the phone that I came to receive the delivery. ”
"Answer the phone, then do you hear who Pan Qingqiang is chatting with on the phone, and what topic is being discussed."
The courier nodded: "I just heard a few words, and she looked very excited at the time." As if she was complaining to someone, she shouted when she walked towards me: I am really blind, how can I think of him, I can't imagine that he has been lying to me, I hate him to death, why didn't he die. Something, she was so emotional that she even shouted hoarsely. To be honest, I've never seen her like this before. ”
"And then, what did she ask you?"
After the woman hung up the phone, she was obviously confused. After receiving the express, he asked me: Do you know where the cheapest hotel is in Yuzi Town? She asked me stunned, thinking that she didn't have the brains to ask me this question, but I still went to Yuzi Town, so I told her the location of several hotels, but I didn't expect her to find a piece of paper to write down, and then I left. ”
As he spoke, the courier found a piece of paper and told the police the addresses of several hotels he had told Pan Qingqiang that day.
According to the information he provided, the group came to Yuzi Town again. After visiting the hotels mentioned by the courier, the results are really real.
"Hello, we are police officers, and we are from Yangcheng City. I want to check your guest registration history for more than a month. ”
Xue Ran walked into the hotel and showed his ID as he spoke.
When the proprietress of the inn saw that he was indeed a policeman, she didn't say anything more, and directly handed over the accommodation registration record: "Comrade policeman, our hotel is definitely a serious business, there is no such improper business, you can check it casually." ”
Sure enough, in the early morning of the night when Bai Kaiguang and Pan Qingqiang both disappeared, Xue Ran showed Pan Qingqiang's registration records, but according to the registration records, she was the only one who came to Yuzi Town, and Bai Kaiguang did not come with him.
"Boss, do you remember this woman?" Xue Ran asked, pointing to the name on the accommodation registration.
"Pan Qingqiang, this woman, I seem to have a little impression." After the hostess of the inn looked at the photos, "Because when this woman came to stay at the hotel, it was almost 12 o'clock in the middle of the night." It's true that there aren't many women who come alone on a big night. She was wearing big sunglasses and she was going to open a double room, because we were in short supply at the time, and when I saw that she was coming alone, I suggested that she open a single room, but she said her boyfriend would come the next day. So I had to open a double room for her. ”
"And what does she look like, is that what she looks like?" As he spoke, Xue Ran took out a photo of Pan Qingqiang from his bag and handed it over.
"I'm sorry, comrade policeman. Now the weather is so cold, and it was a big night, everyone was tightly wrapped, I was also sleepy, so I wanted to hurry to finish the errands for others, so that I could go back to rest. That's why I didn't pay attention to her appearance at all. Faced with Xue Ran's question, the proprietress could only shake her head helplessly.
Xue Ran was also a little helpless about this. But the proprietress looked at him like this, and continued: "Officer, there is a waiter in our hotel, and when that woman came, it was I who asked him to help with the luggage and clean up the room, I guess she should have seen the appearance of that woman, or you should ask him." ”
As she spoke, the proprietress called the waiter, and the waiter looked at Pan Qingqiang's photo and recalled: "I remembered, I sent the luggage to the woman's room, and also helped her clean up the house briefly." As soon as the woman entered, she started calling and saying that I had arrived, when would you come? After talking for a while, after hanging up the phone, she asked me what time the hotel closed and said that she was going to pick up people. ”
"Then she didn't say who she was going to pick up, what time would you come?"
"I don't know, she didn't say."
"Look, isn't this woman?" Xue Ran handed him the photo of Pan Qingqiang.
"I'm sorry, I don't really remember, but it looks a little bit like it. Officer, we receive so many people every day, how can we remember what everyone looks like, besides, she wears big sunglasses, and when she arrives in the room, she spreads her head down, and she looks like Sadako. Even if she were standing in front of me again, I wouldn't necessarily recognize who she was. ”
"Then do you know when Pan Qingqiang left the hotel, she was alone when she left, and someone was still with her."
"When she left, it must have been two days later, and she left early in the morning. She paid for two days' room, delivered the keys to the front desk early in the morning, and left without saying a word. ”
"And does he have anything left?" In fact, when he asked this question, Xue Ran didn't have a bottom in his heart: there were so many people coming and going in this hotel, and whatever Pan Qingqiang left behind a few times would be quickly cleaned up.
But I didn't expect that there was still an unexpected surprise: "Yes, that woman left a necklace, and I think that necklace is so beautiful." And at first glance, you can tell that the price is very expensive. So I stayed secretly. I thought the woman would come back. But she didn't come back for so many days, so I left it on my own. ”
