? Lao Bian slowly shook his head and said: "I didn't check this, but it's not important, right? Since the reporter called to report the crime, he will definitely not know the whereabouts of Li Dali..."
Cheng Yu waved his hand, interrupted Lao Bian, and said: "Bureau Bian, you have a habitual way of thinking about handling cases, and you never pay enough attention to the disappearance of adults. Since the reporter reported the case, why didn't you continue to follow up? Just
After one phone call, there was no news?”
Lao Bian thought for a while and said: "Are you trying to say that the reporter may have met Li Dali after reporting the case? Or that he has information about him, so he feels there is no need to trouble the police anymore?"
Cheng Yu waved his hand again and said: "There is a possibility, but this possibility is very small. Do you think, if the reporter already knows the exact whereabouts of Li Dali and confirms that he is safe and sound, should he call the police station and cancel the request?
Report a crime? Therefore, most likely this person has not seen Li Dali, nor has he received any news about Li Dali."
"Then what's the use of looking for that person?"
"I need to know who that person is. If he is a relative or friend, why is there no follow-up action after reporting the crime?"
Lao Bian frowned and said, "Are you saying that the reporter may not be a relative or friend of Li Dali?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. For example, the reporter went to the Falklands for a trip and accidentally met Li Dali, and then Li Dali entrusted him to help call the police after returning to China. This is obviously not that person's responsibility, so he ignored the report after reporting the police.
No more questions."
Lao Bian touched the slight stubble on his chin and said: "If you put it this way, this possibility is extremely high. However, if this is the case, that person will obviously not leave his personal information...
"
"This depends on the professionalism of the police officer who received the call at the time. Normally, when reporting a crime, you must first verify the identity of the person reporting the crime."
"That's just a phone call to report the crime, and the verified situation may not be true." Lao Bian's inner monologue, in fact, it is a problem to verify or not to verify. After all, the professional quality of the grassroots police is not that high, but in front of Cheng Yu,
He can't say that his subordinates lack the necessary professionalism.
Cheng Yu smiled and said: "I'm not questioning your police's ability to handle cases, I'm just raising the possibility. The key is that you said the reporter reported the case at the police station, rather than calling the 110 police station.
And he still reported the crime on the phone, which means that this person has a certain understanding of that police station, or maybe Li Dali asked him to report the crime at that police station, don’t you think there might be some clues here?”
Lao Bian was stunned, and slammed the table: "It's true! Mr. Cheng, you... you can, with this idea, you can become an assisting expert for our police!"
Cheng Yu smiled and shook his head and said: "When you were at the grassroots level, you were exposed to a large number of similar alarm messages every day. Over time, you naturally developed your own unique filtering system.
Things like Li Dali are basically filtered automatically.
He had a high degree of education, strong professional abilities, and well-documented records of going abroad. Chile had also given him a certificate for working abroad. At that time, everything seemed reasonable and reasonable.
Even if I find you and let you know that Li Dali has not even renewed his visa abroad, you will feel a little weird at most, but the powerful filtering system will still make you ignore these clues. In fact, it is just a change of thinking.
…”
Lao Bian thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's really what happened. I'll make a call right now and ask them to check whether the person who reported the crime left his identity information."
Cheng Yu waved his hand and said: "Police officers at the grassroots level are also human beings. They are having dinner right now. You call them and ask them to go back and look through their old files. The policeman who responded to the call at that time is still at the police station, right? We will go there after dinner.
Talk to him directly."
Lao Bian thought it made sense. He had already taken out his mobile phone and simply called the office. He said that he had something to do in the afternoon and had to go to the Gulou Branch and asked the office to contact him if there was anything.
After eating, the two chatted for a while. Seeing that it was almost the police station's normal business hours, Cheng Yu paid the bill and drove to the police station that Lao Bian mentioned.
On the way, Lao Bian had already contacted the police station and specified that he wanted to find the policeman who had received the call. The police station was quite nervous, after all, it was the leadership of the provincial department who had come down.
The director and instructor personally received them, but Lao Bian had no intention of trying to get close to them. He simply said, "Each of you should go do your own thing" and sent him away. Then they met the policeman who had called the police.
The policeman's surname is Zhang, he is in his thirties, and he was quite nervous when he saw Lao Bian.
Cheng Yu smiled and stretched out his hand. Policeman Zhang quickly held it with both hands and said, "Good leader." He may also be wondering when the provincial department has such a young leader. After all, Lao Bian is a cadre at the division level.
He seems to be a deputy next to Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu also smiled and said: "I am not your leader. I am a friend of Director Bian. The missing person used to work in our research institute, so I came to you to find out the situation."
Police Officer Zhang nodded repeatedly, and Lao Bian also said: "Xiao Zhang, don't be nervous, it's just a normal understanding of the situation."
Officer Zhang nodded repeatedly, and a female police officer walked in and placed a cup of tea in front of Cheng Yu and Lao Bian each.
Cheng Yu nodded and thanked, then looked at Police Officer Zhang and asked, "Officer Zhang, was it you who answered the police call?"
Police Officer Zhang nodded repeatedly, and Cheng Yu asked again: "How much do you remember about the situation at that time?"
"Because I am also a veteran, I paid great attention to the police call at that time, and I still basically remember the process."
Cheng Yu's eyes lit up and he said, "Then have you asked the identity of the person who called the police?"
"I asked, but the other party refused to tell."
Cheng Yu's eyes dimmed. He originally thought he could get some precise information from the reporter, but now it seems that there is no chance.
"However, the reporter should be very familiar with Li Dali. She is quite familiar with his situation. At that time, she called and said that an adult man was missing. To be honest, I didn't take it seriously. A woman said that a man was missing.
, we receive quite a few calls every year from girlfriends or wives looking for their men, and most of them are nonsense. Maybe she heard that I didn’t take it too seriously, so she said that Li Dali was a retired soldier and a senior intellectual.
After I changed my career, I worked in a research institute affiliated to the army for many years, and then I started to take it seriously..."
Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment and said, "Is the person who reported the crime a woman?"
"Yes, the voice sounded like a woman in her thirties, because the call to report the crime took a long time. During the period, I also heard a child calling her mother in a milky voice, and a man said something like that impatiently.
That’s all, no one has any obligation to help his family find a son or anything like that..."
Cheng Yu's brows furrowed even more tightly and he said, "You asked her about her identity and she refused to tell you?"
"Yes."
"What's the reason?"
"She said that she was just a case reported by others. Now that she has her own life, she doesn't want to involve Li Dali in more things..."
Cheng Yu's heart moved slightly and he looked at Lao Bian. Lao Bian blurted out: "Is it his ex-wife?"
Cheng Yu nodded and continued to ask: "This call was made directly to your police station, right? For a normal report, shouldn't you call 110?"
"I also asked about this, and the other party said that Li Dali had a comrade. She remembered that he seemed to work at our police station, but the specific name was not clear, so she thought that if she called our police station directly, we might take it more seriously..."
Cheng Yu immediately said to Lao Bian: "Bureau Bian, please check the current situation of Li Dali's ex-wife. Then, Officer Zhang, please also ask your director to come over. I want to know about Li Dali's comrade."
situation."
Police Officer Zhang stood up immediately and quickly invited the director over.
After listening to Cheng Yu's request, the director immediately found the list of personnel who had been employed or transferred from the police station in the past five years. After a not-so-complicated comparison, he quickly found Li Dali's comrade-in-arms.
Strictly speaking, he is not actually a comrade-in-arms. After all, Li Dali is a scientific researcher and has a great doctorate. And the policeman has now been transferred to another police station as the deputy director. At first, he only belonged to the same police station as Li Dali.
In the army, the two of them had never met at all when they were in the army. It was just because they had a few conversations about things related to the research institute that they discovered that they actually served in the same army at about the same time.
I chatted with the deputy director on the phone. He had already been transferred out at that time, so he didn't know about it. Cheng Yu also told him that he would contact him again if necessary.
Lao Bian also found the information about Li Dali's ex-wife. The Social Security Bureau said that Li Dali's ex-wife Chen Huan had paid insurance as a freelancer in recent years, so there was no information about her occupation.
China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom have also checked and found that the last phone card used by Chen Huan was also canceled two years ago, which means that in the past two years, she has been using mobile phone cards registered in other people's names.
Moreover, the civil affairs department did not find any information about Chen Huan's remarriage, and the clues seemed to have been cut off at once.
Reluctantly, Cheng Yu called Wu Jing and asked if he still had contact with Chen Huan. Wu Jing's answer was no.
Just when Cheng Yu was at his wits' end and thought the clues were about to be lost, he received another call from the deputy director.
"Oh, by the way, there is something I forgot to tell you just now. Dali and I are actually not very familiar with him, but because we serve in the same army, we are considered comrades in arms, and we drank together twice.
He was also not very good at drinking, so we had less contact with him later. However, I did meet his ex-wife more than two years ago..."
Cheng Yu was happy when he heard this and said, "You still have contact with Chen Huan?"
"There is no contact. I don't even know his ex-wife's name. But one time when I was drinking with Dali, his ex-wife came to him to get money. It must have been when he had just paid his salary that day. That was all six or seven years ago.
.So I had a general impression, and then I met him and stopped to chat for a few words.”
Cheng Yu was a little disappointed again, sighed and said: "Thank you." He thought to himself, this is probably why Chen Huan chose to call the police station directly to call the police. He happened to meet the deputy director during that time.
, but she didn’t know at the time that this person had been transferred.
"It was in my jurisdiction at that time. Chen Huan opened a beauty shop for women in my jurisdiction. I also asked the police under my command to pay more attention. I asked just now and they said that nothing happened to the beauty shop.
But business is pretty good..."
Cheng Yu clapped his hands suddenly and said excitedly: "Oh, you have really helped us a lot. The address is..."
