Zhang Zhonghua said goodbye to He Daqing and others, got on his bicycle and set off to the steel rolling mill with the security guards who came to see him.
He Yuzhu, his wife and He Daqing in the room knew something was wrong when they saw Zhang Zhonghua's serious expression and a hint of anger, so they didn't ask any more questions and just asked Zhang Zhonghua to pay attention to his safety.
Zhang Zhonghua was riding his bicycle to the steel rolling mill while thinking about Zhao Xiaodong's disappearance. Soon the two of them rushed to the security department of the steel rolling mill.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard of the security department, Dai Guibing, the captain of the third team who had been waiting at the entrance of the security department, came over.
"Section Chief, you are finally here."
Dai Guibing had been waiting anxiously at the door since he sent someone to find Zhang Zhonghua.
"Where is my sister-in-law? How are you feeling now?"
Zhang Zhonghua parked his bicycle and asked Dai Guibing about Zhao Xiaodong's wife.
"Section Chief, Liu Mei is in the office now. She just learned that Xiaodong has not been in the Security Section for the past two days and she lost control of her mood.
I found a few people from the second team who are familiar with Xiaodong and my sister-in-law to comfort her, and she is in a much better mood now."
Dai Guibing heard Zhang Zhonghua asking about Liu Mei's situation and immediately gave him a brief explanation.
"That's alright, let's go and have a look with me."
Hearing the return of Dai Guibing, Zhang Zhonghua felt a little relieved. Great sorrow and joy can easily make people fall ill. Unless Zhao Xiaodong found her, his wife fell ill first.
Before Zhang Zhonghua arrived at the office, he heard a woman's crying voice.
Zhang Zhonghua pushed the door open and walked into the office. When he looked up, he saw Zhao Xiaodong's daughter-in-law, Liu Mei, with red eyes, sitting on a chair wiping tears, and occasionally wiping the tears flowing down her cheeks with a handkerchief.
When Zhao Xiaodong's daughter-in-law Liu Mei heard the sound of the office door opening, she immediately looked up in the direction of the door and saw Zhang Zhonghua walking in from the outside. She quickly got up and walked quickly towards Zhang Zhonghua.
"Chief Zhang, my old Zhao can't be found. If my old Zhao is gone, how will our mothers survive? You have to help me find him. I kneel down here for you.
"
Liu Mei was crying and wanted to kneel down in front of Zhang Zhonghua. Zhang Zhonghua quickly supported Liu Mei.
"Oh, I said, sister-in-law, what are you doing? We are also very anxious if Xiaodong can't be found. Don't worry, we will definitely find Xiaodong!"
After saying this, he winked at the others. The people who had been chatting with Liu Mei immediately understood what Zhang Zhonghua meant, and they all stepped forward to support the heartbroken Liu Mei who was crying.
"Yes, sister-in-law, you have to believe in our section chief, he will definitely find the captain."
"Yes, sister-in-law, please get up first. Section Chief Jiren has his own destiny and everything will be fine. Maybe something suddenly delayed him."
Zhang Zhonghua watched several people help Liu Mei sit down, and after Liu Mei's mood stabilized a little, he sat opposite her.
"Sister-in-law, Xiaodong didn't come home after get off work the night before yesterday, right?"
Having done this, Zhang Zhonghua began to ask Liu Mei some information.
"Yes, I haven't seen him since he came to work at the steel rolling mill the morning before yesterday, and he didn't go home after get off work in the evening."
"Then, has he done anything unusual before? For example, he told you that he had something to deal with recently, or that he had to meet someone."
Liu Mei thought for a while after listening to Zhang Zhonghua's words, and answered with certainty: "I'm sure there is no such thing. Recently, my old Liu has been going to and from work every day. Apart from occasionally going to a tavern for a drink, he has never heard of going anywhere or
Who do you want to meet?"
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the two team leaders of the second team:
"Do you two know where Zhao Xiaodong usually drinks?"
The two leaders of the second team, Shao Youtian and Wang Jianguo, nodded together.
"I know, we went to that tavern with Captain Zhao before!"
Zhang Zhonghua frowned and thought for a moment, then said to Liu Mei:
"Let's do this, sister-in-law, you go back first, we will definitely find Xiaodong as soon as possible, just wait for the news at home.
You two arrange for two people to send your sister-in-law home, and then convene a meeting with all the current group leaders in the core."
Zhang Zhonghua said to Dai Guibing and others.
"It's the section chief!"
After Zhang Zhonghua sent Liu Mei out, he came to the conference room.
At this time, Dai Guibing, the captain of the third team, and the four team leaders of the second and third teams were all present in the conference room. Zhang Zhonghua sat down at the main seat, sorted out his thoughts, and then said to them:
"Zhao Xiaodong, the captain of the second team, disappeared after getting off work the night before yesterday. It has been more than a day and a half now. The people of your second team are with your captain every day, and there are people who live very close to Zhao Xiaodong's house. No one wants to go.
Would you like to ask why Zhao Xiaodong didn't come to work yesterday? If I had someone to ask yesterday, I wouldn't have discovered Zhao Xiaodong's disappearance until now."
What Zhang Zhonghua said was purely an afterthought. No one would have thought that Zhao Xiaodong would disappear, but he still couldn't help but cursed loudly.
"It has been more than thirty-six hours since Zhao Xiaodong got off work in the afternoon the day before yesterday. Thirty-six hours! How many things could have happened in the meantime? If someone really killed Zhao Xiaodong, it would have taken a day to dispose of the body!"
Zhang Zhonghua angrily slapped the table in front of him with his right hand and roared loudly at the five people present.
"Section Chief, this is all my fault. If I had asked about our captain after get off work yesterday, I wouldn't have discovered the captain's disappearance just now."
Shao Youtian suddenly stood up and said to Zhang Zhonghua
"I should be blamed. When I go home, I will pass by the courtyard where Captain Zhao lives. If I..."
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the team leaders who stood up one after another to admit their mistakes.
"Okay, okay, okay! Stop talking. I can't blame you entirely for this. Who would have thought that Zhao Xiaodong would be missing!"
Zhang Zhonghua rubbed his face up and down with both hands, and then said to everyone.
Dai Guibing, captain of the third team, said to Zhang Zhonghua:
"Section Chief, what should we do now?"
"Now? Well... I just thought about it on the way to the Security Department. There are three most likely scenarios for Zhao Xiaodong's disappearance."
"First, Zhao Xiaodong had something to do and left in a hurry, but no matter how urgent he left, he wouldn't have time to go home and say something, so this possibility is not high."
"Secondly, Zhao Xiaodong had a conflict with someone on his way home from get off work, and was beaten... But with Zhao Xiaodong's level, if he can't fight and run away, there is no problem. Even if he drinks too much, he still has to live and see people dead and corpses. Well, so this possibility is not high."
There are no cameras on the streets these days, and the conflict between the two groups is very passionate, but there are basically no people who take the initiative to destroy the body after the murder. The body is just thrown there and then the person runs away. If Zhao Xiaodong was killed, the body should have been found long ago.
Already..
"The last possibility is that Zhao Xiaodong was ambushed and attacked in a planned way, and then he was arrested and imprisoned!"
At this point, Zhang Zhonghua paused.
"The people who are most likely to arrest Zhao Xiaodong are Li Daqing and his security team. He has offended Li Daqing and his security team a lot, even though he is following my orders.
But the people from the security team did not dare to attack me directly, so they could only attack the specific executor, Zhao Xiaodong.
If it is really Li Daqing's security team who arrested Zhao Xiaodong, then Zhao Xiaodong's life should not be in danger, but he will probably suffer a lot of torture."
After hearing Zhang Zhonghua's words, everyone present suddenly became enlightened.
Zhao Xiaodong was first ordered to lead a team to pick out everyone in the security team. When he passed by the office building on his way back to the security department, he started singing to stimulate Li Daqing. I heard that Li Daqing dropped a lot of things in the office that day.
So it is really possible that the security team was ordered by Li Daqing to set up an ambush and capture Zhao Xiaodong on his way home.
Dai Guibing's head turned around, then he stood up and said to Zhang Zhonghua: "Section Chief, please give the order, we will do whatever you say!"
"Yes, section chief, please give the order!"
"That's right, we'll do whatever you tell us to do. If it doesn't work, we'll just arrest Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao from the security team and interrogate them."
Dai Guibing and several team leaders stood up and asked Zhang Zhonghua for help.
"You all sit down first! Although Zhao Xiaodong is most likely to be captured by the security team, we can't give up in other directions and still have to check. And even if Zhao Xiaodong is captured by the security team, we can't go directly to arrest the security guard.
The team members will interrogate him.”
Zhang Zhonghua leaned back on the chair, crossed his chest with his left hand, touched his chin with his right hand, thought for a while and then stood up.
