Seeing the two specially marked numbers, Li Jie deliberately showed a look of doubt on his face.
"This is......"
Leng Xiaobing paused for a moment and observed Li Jie's expression before telling the truth.
"The number dialed from the public phone used by the suspect in the Xia Jinlan case."
"At 11:50 a.m. on September 4, 2000, the suspect used this phone to call the police. Immediately afterwards, this phone called another number."
"278037!"
With that said, Leng Xiaobing pointed to the case registration form again.
"You are looking at this. This is the police record of Shen Haiyang's disappearance. The police report was made by Shen Yu. The phone number she left behind is exactly 278037."
Li Jie pondered for a moment and said: "Captain Leng, you mean there is a problem with time?"
"That's right!"
Leng Xiaobing glanced at Li Jie, his eyes full of admiration.
This kid's sense of smell is really keen, and he immediately noticed the key points.
"Can the little shop owner from back then still be found?"
"It should work!"
Leng Xiaobing nodded, as long as the shop owner was still alive, they could find him.
After all, in today's information society, it is very convenient to find someone.
"but."
Leng Xiaobing hesitated for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "Even if you find the owner of the small shop, you probably won't gain much."
Seventeen years is too long. Even if you find the small shop owner, he will most likely forget the details of that year.
Li Jie smiled slightly when he saw this. Leng Xiaobing was indeed a very powerful policeman. Through the details of the phone call, the other party had already discovered the loopholes in it.
Is Shen Haiyang the murderer?
Before entering the dungeon, the drama of who is the murderer has not finished, and the suspense still exists.
However, based on the clues temporarily disclosed in the play, Li Jie feels that Shen Haiyang is not necessarily the murderer.
Although Shen Yu receives birthday gifts from her 'father' every year, that 'father' never shows up.
Who knows if he is Shen Haiyang.
And according to the consistent routine of suspense dramas, the first person to be suspected is often not the murderer, everything serves the plot.
These techniques are all for subsequent reversal.
Of course, Shen Haiyang may also be the murderer. Some screenwriters will go against the routine and make the person who the audience thinks is not the murderer most likely to be the real murderer.
In fact, Li Jie has another solution that is not a solution on how to find the murderer.
This method is rather clumsy.
Since the murderer has been secretly observing and protecting Shen Yu, the murderer cannot live too far away from Shen Yu.
As long as Shen Yu is followed secretly, sooner or later the murderer will reveal his true identity.
However, Li Jie couldn't explain this method because he couldn't explain the source of the information.
How did he know that the murderer had been following Shen Yu?
He couldn't explain how he knew that Shen Yu received birthday gifts every year.
Leng Xiaobing is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart.
The slightest abnormal reaction may cause him to be alert.
The most important thing now is the Hongguang Road Photo Studio, and other things can be put aside.
According to Li Jie's reasoning, Hongguang Road Photo Studio must be an important clue, otherwise it would not appear in the shots many times.
Li Jie's current plan is to find the photo studio first and see if any new clues can be found.
Then make new plans based on the results.
Immediately, the two discussed for a while, and finally unanimously decided to find the owner of the small shop while investigating the defined area.
It was not difficult to find the owner of the small shop. Leng Xiaobing found him with just one phone call.
More than ten years have passed, and the small shop owner has transformed into a bar owner.
When Leng Xiaobing found him, he was quite surprised. It wasn't until Leng Xiaobing explained his purpose that the bar owner remembered the case.
However, as expected, the small shop owner could no longer remember the details.
It's been too long and it's normal to forget.
Although the results were not very good, Leng Xiaobing was not discouraged.
If this way doesn't work, then find another way.
In the following days, Li Jie and Leng Xiaobing began to line up the photo studios within the area one by one.
Although the process was difficult, they kept searching and finally found Hongguang Road Photo Studio.
Seventeen years ago, there were four photo studios on Hongguang Road. Seventeen years later, Hongguang Road has become a street about to be demolished.
As of today, only one photo studio still exists.
However, this photo studio has also been closed. After all, it will be demolished soon. Most of the shops on this street have been closed. Only one small shop and two fast food restaurants are still open.
Fortunately, the owner of the small shop is a landlord. Several shops on this street belong to his family, and the Hongguang Road Photo Studio was once his family's property.
"Why do you ask this?"
The owner of the small shop was a fat man. When he heard that Li Jie and the others were inquiring about the photo studio, he immediately braced himself and looked at the two of them warily.
This street was being demolished recently, and Fatty thought that Li Jie and the others came to him to discuss the demolition.
The previous offer was too low and he never agreed to sign.
And Fatty’s family was the largest property owner in this street, so the demolition matter was stalled.
However, the misunderstanding was quickly resolved.
Leng Xiaobing smiled, took out the evidence and said: "We are the police. We are mainly looking for you to ask about the photo studio."
"Hello, officer!"
As soon as Leng Xiaobing revealed his identity, Fatty's expression immediately changed and he said eagerly.
"If you have anything to ask, just ask."
Leng Xiaobing nodded, glanced at Li Jie, and motioned for him to take out the things.
"Is this something from your photo studio?"
Upon receiving the prompt, Li Jie took out a receipt from his pocket. This receipt was found among the belongings of 'Xia Jinlan'.
The fat man was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw the receipt. The photo studio had been closed since his father's death. It had been a long time and he was really not sure for a while.
After taking the receipt and looking at it several times, the fat man nodded uncertainly.
"It seems so."
"Come on, take us to the photo studio to have a look."
Before coming to the canteen, Leng Xiaobing and Li Jie went to the photo studio and found that it was closed and blocked.
After asking around along the road, I found the real owner.
Many of the photo studios they visited before are gone, either demolished or transferred. There are not many like Hongguang Road Photo Studio.
They checked all the previous ones and found nothing unusual.
However, this photo studio is a little different. Xia Jinlan had an interaction with this photo studio during his lifetime, so it deserves more attention.
