The next day, Xu Lang sent Xiao Yueyue to school as usual, and then went to work at CSY.
After arriving at CSY, Xu Lang noticed that Luo Jiayan and the others were discussing something. Xu Lang frowned after listening to a few words.
Luo Jiayan and the others were discussing the latest news reports, and the protagonists of the news were two people, one was Carnegie who had been killed, and the other was the missing Jiang Liner.
In the past, after every case, the people killed were from various professions, and few were journalists. Faced with these news, reporters looked at the case from the position of outsiders. However, this time,
The person who died was a journalist, and he was also a person with a very family background and influence. The relevant reports were still very cautious, which was completely different from their previous style.
There are several reasons for this result.
First, the deceased was a journalist. No matter how much you care about this person, he is one of many journalists. If he is killed, it will give other journalists a feeling of sadness. Of course, there are also
Have a strong sense of vigilance.
Second, the background of caring is very strong. His father Guan Maocai is the former deputy director of the provincial TV station, his mother is a former popular female host in S City, his first wife is also a popular female host, and his second wife is a rich second generation. Although they
I have been divorced, but when reporting this, do I need to consider the feelings of the deceased's family? In the past, they could not consider these things, but now they care about the deceased and they have to consider it.
Maybe it was the leaders above who said hello, or maybe they were worried that someone would make a fuss about the journalist profession because of this incident. In short, the reports of concern are very superficial. However, despite this, many netizens
Still very concerned about this matter.
First, the accidental death case of Zhou Kai and his wife’s child some time ago was first reported by Life Daily.
Second, the day before Guan Shen was murdered, Zhou Kai and Zheng Susu committed suicide by jumping from the office building of the Life Newspaper.
Thirdly, Jiang Lin'er was accused by thousands of people because of the suicide of Zhou Kai and his wife. Now, her leader has been killed and she herself has disappeared. The case itself is shrouded in mystery. What's more, Jiang Lin'er had been there before.
An extremely scary and weird video has been uploaded. How much truth is hidden in it and how many melons can be eaten are the questions that most people are concerned about.
Therefore, even though various news reports were careful not to attract people's attention when reporting this case, it still attracted the attention of many people and soon made the front page headlines.
Hearing Luo Jiayan and the others talking about these topics, Xu Lang frowned and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Public opinion is a very scary thing. In many cases, the parties involved are most afraid of this kind of thing. But after a murder case occurs, the people who are most worried about public opinion are not the family members of the victim or the perpetrator, but the police. Public opinion will often
It will bring unnecessary influence to the police in detecting the case. Although this influence will not fall on a certain substantive matter, it will affect the investigators to some extent.
The difference from before is that people from the Life Newspaper were the first to arrive at the scene. Presumably, as reporters, they must have taken photos after seeing the scene. However, there are no relevant photos leaked on the Internet yet. See
Come on, they haven't gone so crazy over it, and most of the news on the Internet simply reported the case, with basically no relevant photos. In the end, it was said that the case was still under further investigation.
It ended in the middle, so it can be seen that someone is still controlling the further development of the situation, which is why Xu Lang breathed a sigh of relief.
Living in this era of rapid information, don't offend reporters easily, because you don't know when, with what purpose, and in what way they will report on you.
It's hard to be a good person, it's even harder to be a good person, and it's also difficult to be a bad person.
Compared to the families of victims and perpetrators, the police are more afraid of media reporters. Who knows how they will report an incident for clicks and traffic.
After everyone saw Xu Lang coming, they stopped discussing the matter and started working.
Lu Xing's eyes were red and he said to Xu Lang: "The video surveillance of the Life Daily office building found some clues."
Compared with the news that was not known to be true or false, Xu Lang was more interested in the clues discovered by Lu Xing, so he asked: "What clues were found?"
"Come and take a look."
Xu Lang did not hesitate and walked directly behind Lu Xing and saw the clues that Lu Xing had found.
The clues found in surveillance videos are naturally video.
Lu Xing clicked on an intercepted video. The video started in the afternoon. At that time, people from the daily life newspaper were getting off work one after another. Xu Lang saw many people from the video. Most of them, Xu Lang
I've seen them all, it's a reporter from Life Daily, and among them is Jiang Lin'er.
Jiang Lin'er looked very lost, as if she had lost her soul. Her colleagues who got off work with her did not choose to go with her, but rather walked around her.
After Jiang Lin'er walked out of the office building, she stood there, looking at an open space, in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
Xu Lang frowned when he saw this.
Lu Xing seemed to know what Xu Lang wanted to ask, so he explained: "The place where Jiang Lin'er was looking was exactly where Zhou Kai and Zheng Susu fell from the building during the day.
.”
Hearing what Lu Xing said, Xu Lang suddenly understood. No wonder Jiang Lin'er had this expression.
The scene that was still covered with blood at noon, by the afternoon, the blood had disappeared and was wiped clean. It was impossible to tell that someone had fallen there and that there had been blood all over the floor.
The video was still scrolling. Jiang Lin'er stayed there for about seven or eight minutes. Xu Lang became a little impatient. Then, he saw Jiang Lin'er leaving the office building. Walking towards the street, he stopped
He took a taxi and finally disappeared from the surveillance screen.
The video ends here.
After the first video ended, Lu Xing turned his head and looked at Xu Lang. He found that Xu Lang didn't seem to find anything, so he played the second video.
The video was shot at night, and the picture quality is very poor. If it weren't for the street lights next to it, and the cars passing by from time to time, with their car lights on, it would be impossible to see what was captured at the scene.
A taxi came from a distance and appeared in the video. After the car stopped, a woman in a white dress opened the door and got out. After getting out of the car, she walked straight towards the dark office building.
, the taxi driver still stopped where he was, stretching out a hand with a few bills in his hand, as if he wanted to give the woman change, but the woman had no intention of going back to get the money, and the taxi driver took it back when he saw this.
money and drove away.
When the woman passed the street light, Xu Lang saw the woman's face clearly. She was none other than Jiang Lin'er.
After Jiang Lin'er got off the car, she went straight to the door of the office building. She stretched out her hand and pushed the door. The door that should have been locked was open. She entered the office building directly, and the video ends here.
it's over.
Xu Lang glanced at the time on the video. The time when Jiang Lin'er appeared in the surveillance screen was two-eight in the morning.
Seeing this time, Xu Lang thought of Lin Tao saying that the time he saw Jiang Lin'er leaving the community was around 1:30.
Xu Lang estimated the distance from where Jiang Lin'er lives to the office building of the Life Newspaper. If you drive in the middle, it will take about twenty minutes. Of course, this is if there is no traffic jam. If there is a traffic jam, I'm afraid the time will be longer.
It will take longer, but Jiang Lin'er took a taxi here in the early morning, so there will definitely be no traffic jam. This means that it took Jiang Lin'er almost half an hour from leaving the community to arriving at her work place.
, This is basically consistent with the actual situation. It seems that Lin Tao did not lie.
After Xu Lang watched the video, he realized that Lu Xing was looking at him, so he said, "Look at me - what are you doing? When did Jiang Lin'er leave the office building?"
However, when faced with Xu Lang's question, Lu Xing shook his head and said, "After Jiang Lin'er entered the office building, she never came out."
"What's the meaning?"
Xu Lang looked at Lu Xing in surprise.
Lu Xing didn't speak, just looked at Xu Lang.
Xu Lang immediately understood that the last time Jiang Lin'er appeared in the surveillance video was around two o'clock in the morning on the 13th, and since she went in, she never came out again. This was obviously abnormal.
"Are you sure that Jiang Lin'er never came out after entering the office building?" Xu Lang asked still unsure.
Lu Xing nodded and said, "I carefully watched the video of Jiang Lin'er entering the office building several times. Jiang Lin'er did not appear before the police arrived at the scene."
"What happened after that? Did Jiang Lin'er show up?"
Lu Xing shook his head and said, "No."
Although Xu Lang already knew the answer when he asked this question, he still asked it.
Concerned's body was found. After the police arrived at the scene, they must have sealed off the entire building immediately. It was impossible for people to enter and exit easily without permission. Anyone with a little bit of brain would not choose to do so.
She refused to leave before the police arrived. However, the crux of the problem is that Jiang Lin'er never appeared again after entering the office building. She was not found at the scene. She was missing. So, where did she go?
How did you leave the office building?
"Does the office building have a back door?" Xu Lang thought for a moment and asked.
"have."
Lu Xing answered very simply. Xu Lang looked at Lu Xing, but Lu Xing directly gave an answer that Xu Lang didn't want to hear.
"I also watched the surveillance video of the back door, and I didn't see Jiang Lin'er appear."
Hearing this, Xu Lang frowned.
Jiang Lin'er was previously defined as missing, but now, after Lu Xing watched these videos, another result appeared: Jiang Lin'er disappeared from the world.
Is it haunted? Or is there something supernatural happening?
Xu Lang didn't believe in either of these possibilities, nor did he think so.
There are no ghosts in this world at all. Even if there are, they are ghosts in people's hearts. As for supernatural phenomena, Xu Lang admitted that the world is so big that there are always some things that cannot be explained by science. However, these things have nothing to do with the current murder cases.
It couldn't be related. How could a living person just disappear? Even if there was a supernatural scene, there would be some abnormalities at the scene. However, there were none of these.
Since it's not haunted or a supernatural phenomenon, there are only two possibilities.
First, when Lu Xing checked the surveillance video, he was not careful enough. Jiang Liner actually left the office building, but Lu Xing did not notice it.
already.
Second, Jiang Lin'er did not leave the office building at all. She hid somewhere in the office building. She did not leave quietly until the police left the investigation site.
However, both possibilities are unlikely.
Lu Xing is specifically responsible for monitoring. His control over the computer far exceeds that of Xu Lang and the others. Lu Xing may make mistakes on other matters, but when it comes to video, Lu Xing definitely does not.
There will be mistakes. Of course, nothing is absolute. Lu Xing is also a human being, not a cold machine. He will also make mistakes. However, the possibility of such mistakes is unlikely. For the sake of caution, Xu Lang still said: "You really
Didn’t you miss anything?”
Lu Xing was not surprised by Xu Lang's question. He nodded and said, "When I first discovered this problem, I thought I had overlooked something, so I read it again several times and still found it.
With the help of the program, Jiang Liner was still not found walking out of the building."
Hearing this, Xu Lang frowned.
Since this possibility has been eliminated, the second option becomes more feasible.
Seemingly knowing what Xu Lang was thinking, Lu Xing spoke again: "I asked Luo Jiayan and Lai Pi. After the police arrived at the scene, the office building was sealed. Only entry is allowed, no exit is allowed. Even if
To come out, you also need to verify your identity, and the comrades from the police station also searched the entire office building immediately, and Jiang Lin'er was not found. It is impossible for her to be hiding in the office building."
The second possibility has been basically ruled out. So, how did Jiang Lin'er leave the scene?
Just when Xu Lang was thinking about this problem, Lu Xing said again: "By the way, in addition to this clue, I also found other clues."
"What clue?" Xu Lang asked subconsciously.
"Look at this."
Lu Xing clicked on the third surveillance video.
Also at night, in front of the office building, a man dressed in black and wearing a peaked cap slowly walked to the door of the office building. He took out his key, opened the door of the office building, and then walked in.
, when entering the office building, he raised his head, glanced at the location of the surveillance camera, paused for a few seconds, and then walked into the office building.
It's obvious that this man knows where the surveillance is.
When Xu Lang saw this video, his pupils shrank violently. This person felt very familiar to him, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
"This person should be Sun Wenyao."
At this moment, Lu Xing spoke.
"Sun Wenyao?"
Xu Lang squinted his eyes, stretched out his hand, and pressed the pause button. Looking at the blurry face on the video, Xu Lang fell into deep thought.
Yes, Lu Xing was right. This man looked very similar to Sun Wenyao, both in height and body shape. However, Xu Lang still felt strange because this man looked very old.
, Before, during the Zou Renjiang case, when Xu Lang saw Sun Wenyao, although he looked very old, he was definitely not as old as he is now. In less than two months, how could he be so old?
So fast?
Could it be that he is sick?
However, this question was quickly forgotten by Xu Lang. He looked at Lu Xing and asked, "When did this person leave the office building?"
Lu Xing shook his head and said, "Like Jiang Lin'er, he never came out after entering the office building."
"What? Did he also disappear from the world?" Xu Lang said in surprise.
Lu Xing shrugged and said he didn't know.
Seeing Lu Xing's expression, the expression on Xu Lang's face became solemn.
If Jiang Lin'er's disappearance was an accident, then what happened to Sun Wenyao's disappearance? It is impossible for two people to disappear at the same time. There must be some connection between them.
After thinking for a while, Xu Lang asked again: "When was the last time Caring appeared in the office building?"
"It's around eight o'clock in the evening on November 10th."
"Then when was the last time he entered the office building?"
"It's also the 10th, but it's after six in the morning."
"What happens after that? Caring has never been in or out of the office building?"
Lu Xing shook his head and said, "No."
"How is this possible?"
Xu Lang murmured to himself.
Indeed, this thing is very strange. The last time Caring appeared in the office building was on the night of the 10th, and this was the same as what the people in the Life News said. This is for sure. However, since he did not appear in the office building again,
So, how did his body enter the office building? Did it fall from the sky? It seems impossible when you think about it.
How can one explain a person who left an office building but died on the roof of the office building without re-entering? There is no way to explain it.
The clues that Lu Xing found through the surveillance video were more of a few doubts than clues.
First, how did Jiang Liner disappear from the office building?
Second, how did the person suspected to be Sun Wenyao leave the office building?
Third, how did Caring appear on the roof of the office building and be killed?
If you want to solve this case, you must first understand these three doubts.
