7 PM!
It was pitch black outside the Chaoyang Investigation Bureau's office.
In the brightly lit special task force office, Shen Ting, who was originally leaning back in his office chair, frowning and thinking about the case, immediately perked up when he received a call from Zheng Yuanqiao.
"Captain Zheng, it seems you've found something out on your end?"
That's right!
Shen Ting, the three people you just sent me in the surveillance footage outside Wu Liqun's house—the first one, just like you said, is indeed a villager from Shenjia Village.
According to our investigation, his name is Shen Dingli, and he is 31 years old.
His occupation is truck driver.
I just got back from driving a car out of town yesterday.
We found him at his home and asked about the identities of the other two people who had been with him yesterday.
Shen Dingli said that the two people were friends he met while driving a sports car.
They belong to a freight company, and both of them drive trucks.
However, I resigned some time ago.
Driving a truck is supposed to be a chore, but it's hard work and doesn't pay well.
The two men were not from Dajing; they said they wanted to stay at Shen Dingli's house for two days first.
Then find a job delivering food or packages.
Shen Dingli agreed and took the two in.
Yesterday afternoon, the three of them had nothing to do, so Shen Dingli suggested that he take the two of them for a walk around Shenjia Village.
It must have been during this period that he passed by the small road next to Wu Liqun's residence and was captured by surveillance cameras.
but!
We did not find those two friends who were calm and altruistic.
Shen Dingli said that his two friends did not stay at his house last night as planned.
Around 7 or 8 p.m., the two suddenly told him that someone had introduced them to new jobs, and that they could go and check it out right away, so they left his house.
And to this day, he has not had any further contact with either of them.
The key point is!
We contacted the freight company where Shen Dingli worked and discovered that his two friends had actually lied.
His two friends were named Song Yunchao and Qian Fangzhi.
They didn't resign voluntarily; they were fired by the freight company.
The reason for his dismissal was theft.
Freight drivers travel to different cities across the country.
I might only stay in each city for two or three days before leaving.
Some freight drivers then harbored ill intentions.
They would seize any opportunity to steal, and then immediately leave the city.
In previous years, the theft case involving a truck driver was used as a typical example and was a major focus of the crackdown nationwide.
It's been quite rare these past few years.
But this is the case with Song Yunchao and Qian Fangzhi.
They repeatedly assisted in theft during freight transport.
He was caught red-handed this time and sentenced to more than a month in prison; he was only released a few days ago.
Are these two people with prior theft convictions again?
Shen Ting's eyes lit up:
"Combined with their sudden decision not to stay at Shen Dingli's house, and their reaction when they saw Wu Liqun distributing money in the afternoon."
These two people are highly suspicious!
Can you confirm their current location?
"We've found it!"
Zheng Yuanqiao smiled and said:
"I just asked Shen Dingli to pretend nothing happened and send messages to the two of them, asking about their job search."
The two said they hadn't secured jobs yet, but offered to treat Shen Dingli to dinner to thank him for his help.
We're driving to the place they agreed to meet; we should find them soon.
"Okay, be careful."
"No problem, I'll contact you again after I meet the two of them."
