Zhengming District Criminal Investigation Brigade.
Li Meng, who was left behind by Chen Shu and others, was sitting in his messy office, getting angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He was usually too busy to touch the ground, but at this time, he was not even thinking about work, and was just angry with himself.
I was stunned for most of the day.
In the end, he found a reason to convince himself to settle down and start working. Through the information obtained from Chen Chuan's transcripts during the day, Li Meng successfully obtained Sister Hua's personnel information and call sheets from the public security intranet.
After pulling down a bunch of phone bills from before losing contact, Li Meng settled down and began to investigate the people who had recently been in contact with Sister Hua one by one.
An hour later, Li Meng leaned on his office chair in disappointment.
"During the time when the crime occurred, Sister Hua's phone bill records were very few. Several numbers could withstand back-checking and scrutiny, and the number owners were not qualified to commit the crime. Judging from the communication records, there were no useful clues.
"
Wiping his face vigorously, Li Meng touched the mouse again and opened another system on the intranet. He began to check the takeout records, hotel registration and express delivery sites related to Sister Hua, but still found nothing.
According to the usual case handling procedures, at this moment, we should directly investigate all the video surveillance on Lianhua Road and the video surveillance on all hotels on the street based on the time when Sister Hua disappeared.
However, this kind of investigative work of looking through surveillance cameras consumes a lot of manpower and time. It is not a major criminal case, and even though he is the deputy captain, he cannot use the already scarce police force at will.
Li Meng looked at the thick stack of case information that had just been printed in his hand, frowning, and after thinking about it, he finally took out his cell phone and called several of his most senior and capable officers into the office.
Li Meng put his hands on the table and said casually: "I haven't handled a case for a long time, and I'm a bit stuck on thinking. In fact, it's not a big case. I called you here just to ask something."
"Li Da, tell us, we will tell you everything we know."
"That's strange. Is there anything you don't know about Li Da?"
"Li Da, you don't want to test us, do you?"
Everyone was talking, and their tone revealed the undoubted confidence of the detectives.
Li Meng rubbed his nose without comment and asked: "Where do you think those high-end ladies and peripherals get their business? Oh no, even if they get the business, where do they do their transactions?"
In the personnel carrier during the day, Li Meng was always worried about the "B&B" mentioned by Chen Shu as a tool for selling sex.
“Express hotel.”
"Yeah, it's just like a roadside hotel."
"High-end? Does it count in the car?"
This answer is not ideal... Li Meng interrupted the discussion of several people, took out his mobile phone, called several young policemen in the brigade, and repeated the same question.
The conclusion reached was the same, Li Meng frowned and said nothing.
The group of criminal policemen surrounding the desk knew that their deputy captain was not satisfied with their answer, so they all kept silent at this moment.
"Li Da, can I say a few words?" A young-looking policeman standing in the corner raised his hand and asked.
"explain."
The young policeman organized some conversation and said: "Short-term rentals are popular now. The lady rented a house with high-end decoration and community from the landlord. She only rented it for three months and only used it as a gun room. It expired.
If the house is lost, they won't even ask for a deposit.
"Because the lady's business cannot be fully booked every day, she will rent the house to people in need outside her own schedule for a day or a few days, so that she can spread the expensive rent."
New knowledge, but there is still no connection with the disappearance case of Sister Hua... Li Meng nodded calmly and motioned for the other party to continue.
"Um... Another option is B&B. Now the ladies have learned a lot and know that hotels and guesthouses are easy to be investigated by the police. So after receiving the order on WeChat, they will place the order directly on the mobile app.
B&B in the community...”
With a "bang", Li Meng suddenly pushed away the table and chair and stood up.
He hurriedly asked the young policeman: "Repeat what you just said. Wait, there is no need to repeat it. WeChat, Momo, mobile phones, online chat apps... Nowadays everyone uses WeChat to contact you, who
Are you still stupid enough to make phone calls?
"If it's inconvenient, you can send a text. If you want to audition, you can send a voice message. If you really want to contact someone, you can also chat directly. You can even make a video inspection to check the goods. Once the order is placed, a positioning will be attached, and it's all done!
"Once the transaction is completed, you can choose to block or delete the account. No worries! You have to pay for the phone call! No matter how you calculate it, it is not cost-effective. It will be troublesome in operation. In the end, you may have to go back to WeChat to send your location."
Li Meng clicked his hands together and finally gave himself a reasonable explanation.
No wonder Chen Shu didn't mention the mobile phone bill before. It turns out that this ancient skill has long been unknowingly eliminated by the times.
You have to start checking WeChat from now on!
Li Meng was filled with emotion. When he came to his senses, he realized that a room full of police officers were staring at him and listening with interest.
He waved his hand and asked his subordinates to leave the office.
After the office became quiet again, Li Meng stood alone by the window, looked in the direction of the SWAT team, touched his chin and muttered to himself:
"Should we conduct a comprehensive investigation in accordance with the working mechanism for missing persons and suspected homicide cases?"
Chen Shu's rigorous face seemed to faintly appear on the transparent window glass.
Those eyes looked directly into Li Meng's eyes and felt uncomfortable.
...
Not far from the entrance of the food stall, next to the well.
Chen Shu squatted by the well, staring into the well that had its cover opened. He said "hmm" for a while, then casually found an excuse to hang up the phone.
"Li Meng? What's the matter?"
Chen Chuan, who was standing on the edge, was holding an outdoor searchlight pointing into the well with one hand. His eyes were also staring down the well all the time, for fear of missing something good.
"Oh, he said he has an acquaintance in Guangzhou who can help us contact Penguin's executives to retrieve Sister Hua's WeChat chat records."
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Blow it, how is it possible? If this can be brought out, I will take his last name! Don't say this is just a kidnapping case, if it is a murder case, others will
It won’t be recorded. Hey!”
Although Chen Chuan has been fishing in technical reconnaissance for many years, after all, in his daily work, he is exposed to high-tech technical methods. He will inevitably have several interactions with technology companies like Penguin, so his understanding of this company is far beyond
Li Meng's own thoughts.
The long sigh at the end obviously has a story.
Chen Shu responded casually, without any intention of continuing this topic with Chen Chuan. His attention was entirely on the well: "Bowen, please take your time to search, and pay attention to your safety. We are not in a hurry."
"okay!"
Under the direct illumination of a high-power searchlight, the originally pitch-black well was now as bright as day, but everywhere you could see was a dark mess, and even from a distance you couldn't see anything.
Ma Bowen, who was lying on the edge of the well, grabbed a long hook and stretched his arms to the bottom of the well. He fished things into the well one by one, and when he caught the hook, he lifted it up and threw it to the ground.
After a long time, several people gathered around and looked at the pile of dirty things that Ma Bowen fished out and placed on the ground. Chen Chuan carried several buckets of water that had been prepared and washed the pile of things over and over again.
With repeated washing with tap water, these things that were originally invisible gradually revealed their original appearance.
"Book, what is this? It looks like a bone to me. It can't be a human... bone, right?"
After flushing several buckets, Chen Chuan squatted down, reached out and rummaged through the pile of dirty things, and picked out a few bones with different shapes and details.
Chen Shu possessed himself and picked out all the things that looked like bones inside. He had never been to the vegetable market and rarely went to the kitchen, so he really couldn't tell whether these were human bones or pig or cow bones.
He called to the restaurant proprietress, whose hands were still tied, and pointed to the well next to her and asked, "Does this well lead to your store?"
The proprietress of the food stall originally thought that these policemen were coming to check the food and medicine ring. But now she saw a group of them gathered around the smelly well and had been busy for a long time with serious expressions. She was a little confused at this time.
She could only say honestly:
"It leads to our store. When we were decorating, it was the pipes I hired the master to install."
