"Captain Ding, there's news!"
Early in the morning, Ding Xiangyang was still lying on the camp bed in the office when he heard an excited voice coming from far away.
Xiao Qin knocked on his office door with a stack of documents in his hand.
Ding Xiangyang immediately stood up: "Come in."
When Xiao Qin came in, he had already folded the blanket and put away the camp bed.
"Captain Ding, we've got news from the Zheng family. Two people were from the school, but both left within two years."
"How many more people are there?"
"There's another person, but he's not in the file. The Zheng family can't remember him clearly, so we only made a vague portrait based on their description. Xiao Fang has already taken it to Principal Wu."
Ding Xiangyang took the two documents.
One of them is a school librarian and the other is a staff member of the logistics department.
The library teacher was Liu Xia, who resigned two years after the incident.
The staff member of the logistics department was named Li Jun, who resigned more than a year after the incident.
If you look at it this way, the two people don't seem to have any connection.
"Check these two people first." Ding Xiangyang closed the document and handed it back to Xiao Qin.
"yes!"
Xiao Qin was a little excited.
If they could solve this old case from eighteen years ago, it would be a great achievement!
For young policemen like them who had just finished their internship, it was like pie in the sky.
Xiao Qin was just about to go out when the phone rang.
When he saw that it was Xiao Fang calling, he didn't rush out.
Press Amplify.
Xiao Fang's voice came from the other end of the receiver:
"Xiao Qin, tell Captain Ding that Principal Wu said he looked familiar and needs to think about it. He'll contact Captain Ding directly later."
"Okay, I understand." Ding Xiangyang said.
Xiao Fang was stunned when he suddenly heard Ding Xiangyang's voice, and then he understood:
"Okay, Captain Ding. Do I still need to stay in school today?"
Ding Xiangyang thought for a moment and said, "You stay with Principal Wu for the time being. Come back when he remembers."
"yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qin asked, "Captain Ding, if everything is alright, I'll be leaving first."
"Um."
After Xiao Qin left, Ding Xiangyang sat back at his desk and made himself a cup of milk tea.
Holding the cup and taking a sip, he leaned back in his chair and fell into deep thought.
He has memorized the information of those two people.
The brain is integrating known information and making inferences.
Zheng Yan went on a date with an online friend that day, but she thought the friend was too ugly and turned away.
The zoo is in the suburbs, so if she wants to leave, she has to take a bus or a taxi.
Is she back to school?
If she didn't come back, where did she go?
If she did, why didn't anyone see her?
After she was murdered, who told Principal Wu that the Zheng family had arrived in Changping?
Why did Zheng Yan’s counselor happen to hear it?
Why did those three people make a special trip to the Zheng family?
Are they related to the murderer?
Who is the third person?
Could it be the murderer?
Question marks floated through my mind, like millions of threads tangled together, with no end to be found.
But Ding Xiangyang knew that these problems were actually intertwined.
As long as we find that point of intersection, all problems will be solved.
He drank a cup of milk tea slowly and suddenly thought of a question.
What Mr. Li said before about the problem of no floating in Changping City, is it related to this case?
Is the timing really just a coincidence?
He licked the milk tea stains on his upper lip and checked the time.
Ding Xiangyang stood up, straightened the wrinkles of his clothes, and walked out of the office.
It's time for a morning meeting.
At the morning meeting, everyone summarized yesterday's gains and began to discuss the case and the next arrangements.
Li Mingjin is old now, and the hidden injuries in his body have made his health worse than before.
This time he came here as an "expert consultant" and will not go out.
Ding Xiangyang simply asked him to be the commander-in-chief, washed up, changed his clothes, and ran out.
Xin Guoguo's arrangement today is to replace Xiao Fang and follow Principal Wu.
Principal Wu came to the office early in the morning and was stopped by Xiao Fang.
Looking at the pieced-together portrait, Principal Wu just shook his head:
"I have some impression, but I can't remember it right now. Officer Fang, wait a moment, I'll tell you when I remember it."
Xiao Fang didn't refuse, but didn't leave either. She looked like she was going to stay here until he remembered.
Principal Wu couldn't chase him away, so he could only ignore Xiao Fang's presence and start handling official business.
Xiao Fang was determined to defend the position to the death, but he left after only an hour.
Principal Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
Such a grown-up man sitting there with such a strong presence, he couldn't pretend even if he wanted to!
He loosened his tie.
As soon as Xiao Fang left, he felt completely relaxed.
Even when handling official business, his whole body seemed to be filled with joy.
Xin Guoguo didn't understand his psychology, but didn't disturb him.
She sat down on the sofa, chewing an apple, eating a banana, and then taking out the snacks she had hidden away.
I enjoyed the meal very much.
The man and the girl lived in harmony for the whole day.
When it was time to get off work, Principal Wu cleaned up his desk, put the portrait left by Xiao Fang into his briefcase, and left the school.
Xin Guoguo thought about it and didn't rush back to see her two little darlings.
She got into Principal Wu's car alone.
