The two of them drove to the warehouse. Lu Yiwei looked at everything in the bedroom with his falcon-like eyes.
Pan Chengjun's things were all there, and the clean clothes were still drying on the wire. Lu Yiwei touched it with his hand, and it was still a little wet. The quilt was neatly folded, as if he hadn't slept last night. There was also a suitcase on the ground. Lu Yiwei squatted down and opened it. He looked through it and saw a stack of money under the clothes. Even the ID card was lying there. Lu Yiwei got up and picked up a glass of water that was half filled with water. He smelled it and confirmed that it was plain water. All the signs at the scene showed that Pan Chengjun didn't leave without saying goodbye, but left suddenly.
Lu Yiwei looked back and said, "Sanjo, look, his money and ID card are in the suitcase. If he left normally, he would definitely bring these necessities, but he didn't. Are you sure you sent him back last night? "
"Yes, I promise!" Sanjo said, "We had dinner last night, and I drove him to the door. After saying goodbye, I left."
Lu Yiwei asked again, "When you came this afternoon, was the warehouse door open or locked?"
"It was locked," Sanjo said.
Lu Yiwei had already prepared for the worst. He sighed and said, "It's over. Pan Chengjun might have been taken away."
"Ah?" Sanjo couldn't believe it and asked, "Who took him away? How can you be so sure? "
"I'm not sure who took him away." Lu Yiwei analyzed, "The quilt was neatly folded, and the warehouse door was locked. I speculate that you were taken away after you left last night." After that, he quickly walked out of the door and carefully looked at the surroundings. The surroundings of the warehouse were relatively desolate. There were two or three vehicles driving lazily on the street. The trees on both sides of the road were small trees that had just been planted. There seemed to be no clues.
Lu Yiwei's mood was extremely bad. In addition, he didn't have a good rest last night, and his whole person was about to collapse. He angrily punched a tree in front of the warehouse door. There was a burst of pain in his abdomen, and big beads of sweat rolled down. Clutching his stomach, he squatted on the ground and pressed his fist against his stomach, groaning in pain.
When Sandao saw this, he was shocked. He squatted down and hurriedly asked, "Yiwei, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yiwei closed his eyes and shook his head. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm fine. I'll be fine after some rest."
"No!" Sanjue said, "I think you're quite serious. I'll send you to the hospital now!"
Lu Yiwei reached out his hand to stop him. "There's really no need. I might have eaten something bad. Let me rest for a while."
The three dragons were so anxious that they paced around on the ground, scolding themselves for not keeping an eye on Pan Chengjun.
Lu Yiwei rested for a while and felt a little better. Just as he was about to get up, he saw a few fresh, messy footprints at the entrance of the storage unit. He pushed them aside and crawled over them like a detective, trying to find some evidence.
Because Qiyang District was still under construction, there was a section of dirt road near the warehouse, and the footprints were relatively clear. One of the footprints caught Lu Yiwei's attention. The lines were clear and regular. It was obviously different from the other footprints. If he guessed correctly, it should be the footprints of sneakers because a brand logo was clearly engraved on the ground, and the others were in the shape of leather shoes. He quickly asked, "Sanjue, did anyone come to the warehouse today?"
"No!" Sanjue said, "My workers are busy in the store. There are materials for billboards piled up here. During this period of time, there isn't much work. What's wrong? "Sanjue also followed Lu Yiwei's eyes and looked at the footprints on the ground.
"What's there to look at?" Sanjue said, "There are a lot of people coming and going on this road. Maybe it belongs to someone. This doesn't mean anything."
"No!" Lu Yiwei said firmly, "Look at these footprints. They are crooked and dense, and they are relatively fresh. It means that there was a scuffle here. Now I am sure that Pan Chengjun must have been kidnapped."
Sanjue was anxious and said, "Yiwei, let's call the police."
Lu Yiwei shook his head and said, "No, we can't. It's not the time to call the police. Sanjue, quickly find a camera. I want to take pictures. "
"Camera? I have one in my car. I will get it for you now. "Sanjue was in the advertising industry, so he carried a camera with him.
After Lu Yiwei took the photo, he said, "Sanjue, is there a photo printer nearby?"
"No, we have to go back to the city."
Lu Yiwei took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Sanjue. He asked, "Sanjue, who else knows about Pan Chengjun?"
"No one knows. I have never told anyone, including my wife. When they asked me, I said that I hired him. No one doubted it," Sanjue said.
Lu Yiwei believed that Sanjue was telling the truth, but there must have been a mistake in the process that let others know about Pan Chengjun's true identity. He asked again, "Who does he usually interact with?"
Sanjue thought for a moment and said, "No one. He usually speaks very little, and his private activities are also according to your instructions. He rarely goes out. When decorating the store, the people he interacts with the most are the decorators and the newly hired waiters. This is his activity circle. However, as far as I know, he rarely talks to people about himself. I heard someone ask about his identity. He just said that he came to Xijiang to work, and the others didn't ask further. "
Pan Chengjun's accent was the only evidence that exposed him. However, this was unlikely. Lu Yiwei was in a dilemma and couldn't figure out any clues.
"Yiwei, I think we should call the police. I'm really worried that something will happen to him."
Sanjue pleaded again.
Lu Yiwei couldn't decide for a moment. He called Zhang Zhiyuan and explained the situation. Zhang Zhiyuan was also anxious and agreed to call the police.
After obtaining Zhang Zhiyuan's consent, Lu Yiwei and Sanjue went to the police station in the area together. What they didn't expect was that the police said that a case could only be filed after 48 hours of disappearance. Now that they had only been missing for 12 hours, they didn't meet the conditions to file a case.
The longer they delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for Pan Chengjun. The two of them didn't know what to do for a while. They were like headless flies, standing at the entrance of the police station and looking around. Sanjue's mobile phone rang one after another, causing Sanjue to curse, "What the f * ck is this? We won't open for business tomorrow. We'll talk about it in two days." After that, he hung up the phone and said to Lu Yiwei, "Yiwei, why don't we look around?"
This was the only way now.
Lu Yiwei said, "Sanjue, use your connections to look in Jiangdong City. I'll go to Maping County now. Pan Chengjun might have gone there. If I can't find him, I'll come back to find you. "
"Okay, then let's split up!"
"County Magistrate Zhang, I have bad news for you," Deputy County Magistrate Bai Yuxin said solemnly on the other end of the phone.
Zhang Zhiyuan had been used to all kinds of "surprises" these days. He was a little numb to it. He said, "Go ahead. I'm listening."
"Tao Anguo committed suicide."
Zhang Zhiyuan's head buzzed as he leaned forward.
His body leaned forward and his blood pressure rose. He couldn't speak for a long time.
Although Bai Yuxin wasn't in front of Zhang Zhiyuan, she could imagine his situation. She continued, "I'm at his house now. His wife told me that Tao Anguo hasn't been sleeping well for the past two days. She asked someone to buy some sleeping pills, but Tao Anguo didn't wake up after taking them last night. There's an empty sleeping pill box next to his bed. "
"You didn't send him to the hospital?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked.
"No! His wife called 120, and the doctor said that he's dead, "Bai Yuxin said.
"Then they didn't report it?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked.
"No! I just called Xiao Dingyuan. The county criminal police are on their way. But according to my investigation at the scene, we can rule out the possibility of homicide, "Bai Yuxin said.
"What about the scene? Did he leave any clues? "Zhang Zhiyuan asked again.
"No, I've asked his wife. She said that ever since Tao Anguo returned home from Shuyang Coal Mine, he's been in a trance and doesn't want to meet anyone. As for the specifics, we'll have to wait for the criminal police to arrive!" Bai Yuxin said.
Just like that, the storm came quietly. From Lu Yiwei to Ding Changhua, and from Pan Chengjun to Tao Anguo, many people were involved at the same time. So it wouldn't be reasonable to say that it wasn't premeditated. Moreover, everyone involved had an unclear relationship with the Two Treasures Coal Mine. The culprit was too bold. Who was it?
Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't sit still anymore. He had to report this matter to Guo Jinzhu. He instructed Bai Yuxin, "Get the criminal police to investigate carefully. Don't let any details go. Who has Tao Anguo met these days? Who has he contacted? See if there are any valuable clues left. You keep a close eye on the scene. I'll go to the city to meet Secretary Guo right now. "
When he arrived, Guo Jinzhu was in the middle of a meeting. Zhang Zhiyuan was sitting on pins and needles as he waited in his office. He would stand up from time to time and look at the door anxiously.
Half an hour later, Guo Jinzhu finally finished his meeting. He locked the door and brought Zhang Zhiyuan to the bedroom.
Zhang Zhiyuan reported what happened in Nanyang County, and Guo Jinzhu was also shocked. After a long time, he asked, "Who do you think did it?"
"Someone from an interest group." Zhang Zhiyuan said vaguely.
