Although he had made the decision to resign, his heart was still full of reluctance. After suffering for a whole morning, Lu Beicen typed up his resignation letter. It was a simple one-page paper, but he wrote and deleted it, deleted and wrote it again, and felt like
Thousands of words were said, but in the end, only the simplest language, the simplest reasons, personal reasons, four words were used to bury all the inner turmoil and reluctance.
Today, Lu Beicen is going to write the last article in her career as a journalist, which is also a case that left a deep impression on her.
When Zhang Ying turned fifteen, her life changed drastically.
First, her father, who loved her the most, was taken away by the torrent during the great flood that year because he was fighting against the flood. He was buried with an empty urn as if he had never been in this world.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ying's mother Han Li remarried within a few years and took her from a small county to Huxia. Zhang Ying also transferred schools and came to an urban-rural area that was incomparable to before.
School.
This year, Zhang Ying was in the third grade of junior high school. A girl with excellent academic performance found herself in a strange environment. There was a boy one year older than her mother who remarried, and the boy almost hated them.
Mother and daughter told her nakedly that her mother had had an affair with his father for a long time, and even his parents divorced because of her mother.
The letters exchanged and the photos of her mother and her father when they were young were placed directly in front of Zhang Ying's eyes by the boy. A girl of such an age is extremely sensitive. She recalled the past, all the disharmony between her parents, and her mother's indifference towards her and her father.
, all have been fully explained.
Zhang Ying is a very smart girl. She inherited her father's gene of being able to read, and she originally had good grades. However, such cruelty made her full of hatred towards her mother and this new family.
In a girl's sensitive heart, she thinks about these things thousands of times. Over time, she will even blame her father's early death on her mother's unfaithfulness to her father.
She didn't want to go home. To be precise, she didn't think it was her home. Of course, her situation was also very bad. At this time, a boy named Ajun gave her a lot of warmth.
Ajun is a child from a nearby village in the city. He is three or four years older than Zhang Ying. He stopped studying very early and has no job. He used his family's house to open a video studio. There are several schools nearby, including junior colleges and secondary schools.
The video studio business is pretty good.
A Jun's social relationship is actually quite complicated, but no matter what, he is really good to Zhang Ying. About a year or two after they met, by that time, the relationship between Zhang Ying and Han Li was already on the same level. A Jun
I simply rented a house for Zhang Ying and let her move out, and school has long become a thing of the past.
After Zhang Ying met Ajun, she helped him with ideas, rented some vacant houses, opened several Internet cafes and game arcades in the surrounding area, and made the business very prosperous. Huxia is a very big city, with colleges and universities
There are many colleges and universities. At Zhang Ying's suggestion, Ajun relied on these colleges and universities to replicate the experience of opening Internet cafes. At most, he opened thirty or forty Internet cafes and game halls, supporting a large group of brothers who were with him.
.
In a mixed environment, Ajun and his gang also offended many people. When Zhang Ying was 20 years old, Ajun had a major car accident while riding a motorcycle and was hit by a large truck and died on the spot.
Ajun's brothers were very good to Zhang Ying, but they sensed some crisis and asked her to leave Huxia urgently.
Zhang Ying left like this for five or six years. When she returned to Huxia, the situation was already calm. All those who were against A Jun back then were arrested. Of course, the glory that A Jun once created no longer exists.
.
Ajun's former brothers also had their own families and lives. Although they took great care of Zhang Ying, they were just help from friends.
Zhang Ying had some savings and opened a beauty shop on the street. Living alone was neither good nor bad.
Until suddenly one day, Zhang Ying met a man at the breakfast shop next to her beauty shop and was petrified. In her eyes, he was a thirty-year-old version of Ajun.
Zhang Ying worked hard to get to know this thirty-year-old version of Ajun. His name is Lei Hang. His family lives in a work dormitory behind this row of facades and he works in a public institution.
Zhang Ying is very beautiful, knows how to dress up, and is smart. Although she does not have a stable job, her shop is very prosperous, she is generous and enthusiastic, and she treats Lei Hang extremely well.
The two soon fell in love. Whenever Zhang Ying met Ajun's former brothers, she would show them Lei Hang's photos, and she was very happy to say that she had got Ajun back.
Those people were actually quite touched by Zhang Ying's nostalgia for the past. Although they wanted to persuade her to forget the past and start a new life, seeing how devoted she was and how happy she seemed to be, they didn't do much to persuade her.
Then a year or two later, the street where Zhang Ying opened her store was widened and rebuilt, and her store no longer opened.
At the beginning of this year, Han Li's family suddenly had some uninvited guests, who came to beg for their son. They made a big fuss at Han Li's house, claiming that Zhang Ying had secretly taken the child away.
Han Li was really baffled. She didn't even know how these people came to her door. Because a few years after Zhang Ying disappeared, they bought a renovated house in Han Li's unit and moved there. Zhang Ying definitely couldn't know the address of this new home.
Because she didn't even know Han Li's new employer, this was a work problem that Han Li's later husband Pan Weiqiang spent a lot of energy to help her solve.
Pan Weiqiang finally calmed down and suppressed those people before asking the reason.
It turns out that in the years when Zhang Ying suddenly disappeared, he went around in circles. He met Qian Jiping in a factory in Guangnan, and Qian Jiping launched a crazy pursuit of Zhang Ying. I don’t know what Zhang Ying was thinking at that time.
Probably because he was too lonely in a foreign land, he fell in love with Qian Jiping.
Later, the two of them returned to Qian Jiping's hometown of Beijiang Province and started a clothing business. Zhang Ying also gave birth to a son for Qian Jiping. Because they had to do business and take care of a child, they were too busy. The two of them were in the city.
I bought a house and brought Qian's parents to take care of the children.
According to Qian Jiping, the family often stumbled because Zhang Ying was willful and did not know how to do housework or breastfeed the child. He was also picky about his parents in every possible way, but this was how every family lived, so it was no big deal.
But suddenly one day, Zhang Ying disappeared. While there was no one at home, he took away most of her belongings and half of their joint savings. She also left a letter saying that she couldn't stand this kind of life and expressed that she
She would not come back and asked Qian Jiping not to look for her again.
For the sake of their one-year-old child, Qian Jiping still wanted to find Zhang Ying, but Qian's mother was not surprised by this kind of thing. She said that there were many such things in their town, and it was all about women getting married to cheat money.
It was impossible to find him back. Qian Jiping thought about it and found that he really didn't know where to find Zhang Ying. He only heard her say that her parents were dead and she didn't have any relatives...
Of course, these are all what Qian Jiping said, and only their family knows what the truth is, because if he really had no choice, he wouldn't have come to the door because his child was missing.
Han Li sneered angrily: "What's the use of you looking for us? In Zhang Ying's heart, my mother is already a dead person. You said that even if she takes your child away, she will send it to a dead person to hide?"
What's more, I don't know how many years I haven't seen her. Who knows if it was your family that harmed her. Now a thief is coming calling for the thief. If you don't get out, I will go to the police and ask the police to help us find our daughter.
By then you will be the biggest suspect..."
The two families made a fuss, but in the end Pan Weiqiang had no choice but to call the police.
After the police arrived, the Qian family revealed the basis for why they suspected Zhang Ying had taken away the child. They said that there was a canteen owner on the street in front of their community who had seen him before the child disappeared.
I was with a woman, and I vaguely heard him calling the woman mother.
Han Li originally thought that Zhang Ying was dead, but she didn't know that she would get herself into such trouble. Just as she was about to have an attack, Pan Weiqiang felt something was wrong and stood up and said, "I'm not going to hide it from you, this daughter of ours is
My stepdaughter, at that time she didn’t want her mother to marry me, and she had a very serious dispute with her family. She found a boyfriend and moved out a long time ago."
"It's not that we don't want to take care of it, it's really that we can't take care of her affairs. Later we heard that she went to other places. We don't know the specific situation. About five or six years ago, we heard that she came back, but she didn't
Even if she comes to us, we don’t dare to go to her, which is equivalent to completely losing contact.”
"As for what the canteen owner said, they are all vague. I think you must not go in the wrong direction, waste time, or find the child by then. As for our daughter, it is true that there is no
They have come back. If you don’t believe it, please ask the police comrades to take them to the yard and ask the neighbors and doormen to see if any strange women or children have appeared in our house."
"Of course, if you really think that Zhang Ying took the child away, you can also go to the police..."
The Qian family immediately started yelling again, which probably meant that they called the police. The police meant that if the mother took away the child, it would be a civil dispute and they would have nothing to do and would have to file a lawsuit in court.
Under such circumstances, Qian Jiping asked someone to find Zhang Ying's registered residence and her parents, and then approached her.
Seeing that the two families were quarreling again, the police had no choice but to take them to the police station. Pan Weiqiang was still relatively clear-headed. He always felt that this matter was weird, so he simply brought his household registration book out. Zhang Ying was still there.
On their household registration, Pan Weiqiang persuaded Han Li to call the police on the way.
When calling the police, Qian Jiping revealed some more information, that is, he had actually contacted Zhang Ying in Beijiang Province through the alarm procedure, and asked someone to do a thorough investigation, and submitted his son's DNA test materials, and reported it to Beijiang Province.
I have compared the unidentified deceased persons in the database, but there has been no concrete feedback.
At this time, Zhang Ying was completely invisible, as if he had disappeared from the world.
After the mediation, the Qian family passed the police investigation and probably believed that Zhang Ying had indeed not returned, so they drove back to Beijiang Province overnight. After all, finding the child was their top priority.
After the Qian family left, Han Li breathed a sigh of relief. Although she felt a little unhappy, she didn't show it too much. However, Pan Weiqiang still felt that something was wrong, so he found a friend from the criminal police team in his jurisdiction and explained the situation in detail.
A case of disappearance has been filed, and the criminal police team is also paying more attention to this situation. They collected Han Li's DNA and compared it with the city's database of unidentified dead persons. This is not as good as not knowing. It's really shocking.
The comparison came out.
At the beginning of this year, a unit was relocated and renovated, and a white skeleton was found in a semi-enclosed septic tank in the dry toilet that had been abandoned for many years in the yard of the unit. The female was about 30 years old when she died, 165 cm tall, and had a child.
, three to four years after his death, basically all the information matched up with Zhang Ying.
The police immediately launched an investigation. They first eliminated the suspicion of Qian Jiping's family and obtained photos of Zhang Ying as an adult from Qian Jiping. As for the disappearance of the Qian family's son, as Zhang Ying's death was confirmed, it had to be re-determined.
According to the direction of the investigation, it is speculated that he was probably abducted by human traffickers.
Zhang Ying's death was confirmed. According to more information provided by Pan Weiqiang and his wife, although they only heard this information through hearsay, they followed the clues and found Ajun's parents' home. Through two old people, they found some people who had been with Ajun.
As well as people who are familiar with Zhang Ying, most of these people know that Zhang Ying came back to Huxia to open a shop and fell in love with a man named Lei Hang.
One of the neighbors who grew up with Ajun, nicknamed Heizi, provided an important clue. He said that Zhang Ying once asked her for help to find trouble with Lei Hang, which probably meant that Lei Hang wanted to
Break up with her. Zhang Ying said she couldn't help it. She had died several times before, and now it was because Lei Hang really looked like A Jun that she felt she could live. If she didn't have him, she might as well go find A Jun and forget it.
Seeing that Zhang Ying was pitiful, Heizi thought of his former brother. In addition, Zhang Ying was indeed very kind to them in terms of money, so he really went to Lei Hang with two friends to talk to Lei Hang.
He was a bit cowardly. Although he hesitated to speak, he did not reveal why he broke up with Zhang Ying in the end, but he felt that it should be some issues that men could not tolerate, but he was too lazy to ask more about the young couple.
Under such circumstances, Lei Hang became a certain suspect. Following the clues provided by Heizi, the police began to search for Lei Hang again, and at the same time found some common friends of Heizi, Ajun and Zhang Ying to continue to understand the situation. After many rounds of
After investigation and questioning, two more people provided information about helping Zhang Ying find Lei Hang, both of which were about four years ago.
In other words, all together, in about that year, Zhang Yinglu successively found at least four groups of people to scare Lei Hang, and one person even actually attacked him.
But none of them knew exactly where Lei Hang had gone or where he was working now.
