Before Qiao Yueying said these words, Qu Mingcong felt that something might have happened to Xiao Fan, but after she finished speaking, Qu Mingcong felt that Xiao Fan would not survive...
Something must have happened last night.
No, that's not right... Something must have happened in the few dozen minutes between yesterday afternoon, after Shao Jiaming's wife left the massage parlor and before Xiao Fan submitted his resignation.
Qu Mingcong's thoughts are a little confused now.
"We have no evidence...Although you can report to the police at any time, it is not certain whether the case will be accepted after the report is made. Normally, a case cannot be filed until an adult male has been missing for more than 48 hours, and it also depends on the results of the investigation."
The police would not arrest Shao Jiaming as a murderer and interrogate him just because Qu Mingcong received a beating. Everything Qiao Yueying said was based on a lot of speculations and assumptions, and the most important thing in handling the case is real evidence.
"Unless we find the body." Qiao Yueying said softly, as if she heard his thoughts.
Qu Mingcong was stunned and speechless when he heard this. He looked around at the numerous buildings and lights, feeling deeply confused.
In such a late night, without any effective clues, it is impossible to find Xiao Fan's body.
"...Checking surveillance is the fastest way. As long as Shao Jiaming is photographed here, the police will link Xiao Fan's disappearance to Shao Jiaming." Qu Mingcong tried to find the camera, but there was no surveillance installed in this old community.
He quickly walked outside the community again and couldn't help but be stunned - huge advertising banners were hung on both sides of the road outside the community, saying that a certain real estate was on sale.
I didn't pay attention when I came here on a motorcycle just now, but now I realized that this advertising banner occupied the entire road and blocked the traffic cameras on the road.
Without seeing the surveillance video, what could he do to connect Shao Jiaming and Xiao Fan's disappearance? If they just called the police saying that Xiao Fan had been murdered without any basis, it would be impossible for the police to open a case for investigation.
"Can you raise the phone higher?" Qiao Yueying said.
Although Qu Mingcong was puzzled, he still raised his phone as instructed.
"Are those buildings on the left the grand palace?" Qiao Yueying asked.
Qu Mingcong frowned and looked over, "...Yes."
Qiao Yueying turned on her camera, took a photo of a high-rise building, and asked him: "Do you know Shao Jiaming's address? Can you find the window of Shao Jiaming's house from the photo?"
Qu Mingcong looked at the photos on his phone, called up the editing function, and marked a location in red, "He lives on the 26th floor of Building 3. I'm not sure which window it is, but it's roughly within this range."
Qiao Yueying looked at the area he circled, was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Assuming that Shao Jiaming knows the existence of Xiao Fan, then we can deduce that in addition to you, he also hired other private detectives. This private detective has been there before you."
After finding out the relationship between his wife and Xiao Fan, and telling Xiao Fan all his personal information, Shao Jiaming must have been very angry after learning about it, and wanted to teach him a lesson. At this time, he found out that Xiao Fan was blind, living alone, his parents were dead, and he was
Part of the social relationship comes from colleagues at work. Even if such a person disappears from the world, no one will deliberately look for it. Do you think that with Shao Jiaming's character, after realizing this, he will murder Xiao Fan?
?"
Qu Mingcong tried to recall the first time Shao Jiaming came to the office.
In fact, I don’t have a deep impression, because Wang Wei has always been responsible for receiving customers. Now that I think about it carefully, I can barely remember some details.
"Wang Wei said that Shao Jiaming was an executive of a well-known trading company, so he spent a lot of money... He also said that Shao Jiaming was highly regarded by the company boss and had led several big businesses. The risks of those businesses were very high, but after Shao Jiaming's
Work hard and finally get it done.”
As Qu Mingcong spoke, Shao Jiaming's appearance gradually emerged in his mind: Maybe it was just a disguise, but he did look calm and graceful on the outside, and he moved with the confidence of a business elite.
"He is a person who dares to take risks." Qu Mingcong concluded, "Maybe... he is a person who likes to seek excitement from risks."
"Perhaps we can add a little more, extreme confidence and arrogance." Qiao Yueying said, "Shao Jiaming wanted to take revenge on Xiao Fan. He stood in front of the window and saw that outside the community where Xiao Fan lived, advertisements blocked the nearby surveillance cameras.
This was a God-given opportunity for him, so he decided to escalate this revenge action. I guess he also verbally threatened Xiao Fan, which caused Xiao Fan to make a hasty decision to resign and go to Wucheng."
"Mobile phone..." Qu Mingcong's thoughts suddenly opened up and he said firmly, "Xiao Fan lives on the first floor. There are always many old men and women downstairs in the old community. If Shao Jiaming wants to avoid being noticed, it is impossible to come directly to the door. He can only use his mobile phone to call Xiao Fan.
Make a call or send a message!"
"Maybe there are some traces left in the phone." Qiao Yueying said, "If I can access Shao Jiaming's phone through Bluetooth, I might be able to find clues to Xiao Fan's disappearance."
Qu Mingcong was slightly startled and looked down at Qiao Yueying on his phone, "But you said last time that there are risks in doing this. You will get lost inside the electronic program."
Qiao Yueying curled her lips and replied with a straight face: "Please, this is a murder case, how does it compare with last time? Of course I am not happy to put myself at risk to investigate a cuckold, but the situation is different now."
She straightened her chest and raised her chin slightly, "I have a full sense of justice in my heart!"
Although it was a bit inappropriate, Qu Mingcong really wanted to laugh when he saw her like this.
The corners of his mouth had just curled up, and he thought that Xiao Fan might have been killed, so he couldn't laugh, and his chest was once again filled with heavy and complicated emotions.
After thinking for a moment, Qu Mingcong said: "Let's go to Shao Jiaming's house."
Qiao Yueying was slightly stunned, "Can you go? It's so late, he will let you in?"
"Don't worry, I have a way." Qu Mingcong got back on the motorcycle, turned the direction, and drove towards Shengshi Haoting Community.
…
Security in such a high-end community is very strict, and outsiders who want to enter must obtain the consent of the owner.
When Qu Mingcong arrived at the place, he called Shao Jiaming first and told Shao Jiaming that although some unpleasant things happened today, the firm would continue to complete the order tasks in line with the principle of due diligence and would not charge any fees.
Shao Jiaming refused in a bad tone on the phone: "No need, and you don't have to pretend to me. Anyway, I can't trust you. I will find someone else to investigate."
Qu Mingcong said calmly: "Then write me a note. Just write, 'I have decided to terminate the cooperation with Wang Xiaoming Investigation Firm, no longer accept the relevant services provided by it, and voluntarily give up the deposit.' After writing this
Then sign your name and I will come and get it now."
