At five o 'clock in the afternoon, in the office of the Special Investigation Group of the Yunzhou Police Station.
Miao Ying was watching the police's interrogation through the big screen.
In order to find the suspect more quickly, the police had deployed a large number of police officers. In addition to interrogating the drivers who had passed through the blind spot that night, they also did a detailed follow-up investigation on these drivers.
At that moment, the police detectives were interrogating a few of them.
Ran Tao then said, "Within an hour after Zhang Qile entered the blind spot, there were a total of 29 cars that passed through the blind spot. We are now focusing on the dozen cars in front of us!"
He then added, "Because, after Zhang Qile entered the blind spot that day, she didn't use her mobile phone, nor did she make any calls or chat on WeChat. So, we think that if she really stopped a car, it should have happened within the first ten minutes.
Or … Maybe even shorter … "
Miao Ying then asked, "Within these ten minutes, how many cars passed through that section of the road?"
"Including the ambulance, there were only four cars in total!" Ran Tao then said, "But, one of them was a single woman, and the other one was a family of three. If we exclude the ambulance, then there is only one car left …"
Ran Tao then pointed to the big screen and said, "Look, this is the person. He is a single man, an electrical maintenance worker!"
"It's not her!" Before Ran Tao could finish his sentence, Cui Lizhu waved her hand and said, "This man is too ugly, and he has no money. How stupid would Zhang Qi be to get a room with him?"
Ran Tao then said awkwardly, "But … We have verified the tracks of all 29 cars, but the driver's confession is wrong!"
Hearing Ran Tao's introduction, Zeng Ke turned up the volume of the real-time video on the big screen.
The driver was explaining to the police detective, "Police officer, I really went home. I didn't do anything illegal!"
"There is only one entrance to your community," the police detective said. "We didn't see your car in the surveillance, nor did we see you return to your community. How do you explain this?"
"No?" The driver said in surprise, "Is the surveillance broken?"
The police detective picked up his mobile phone and said, "You said that you went home. Call your wife now! We have to verify with her … "
"No, no! Please don't! " The driver was frightened. "My wife went back to her parents' house. There was no one at home that day, except for me. It's useless to ask her!"
"Really?" The police detective was a wily old fox. He sneered and picked up his phone again. "We have to check if she's home or not …"
After saying that, he was about to hit the driver, but the driver hurriedly reached out to stop him and pleaded loudly, "No! I … I said … I was wrong … I was wrong …
"Tonight … I went to my friend's house to play cards! If my wife finds out about this, she'll definitely kill me. I'm begging you … "
"You mean playing cards, right?" The agent obviously didn't believe him and put the phone in front of him again. "Call your friend and we'll verify it!"
"This …" The driver was once again in a dilemma, nervously rubbing his hands.
"Please!" The agent snorted. "Tell us honestly, where did you go? Don't you know you're involved in a murder case?
"If you don't tell the truth, the consequences will be very serious. You will be listed as a murder suspect!"
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you …" The driver finally gave in. "I went to the Astrolabe Bath Center and found … found a service …"
Whoosh …
Hearing this, the people in the special investigation group's office sighed.
"Another big mistake!" Cui Lizhu shook her head. "As I said, Zhang Qile is an artist who pursues perfection. How could she like such an ugly man?"
Zeng Ke said, "Could it be … Could it be a car that happened an hour later?"
"That's even more impossible!" Wu Xiumin said. "Although the outdoor temperature was suitable that day, the blind spot was surrounded by roads and no shops. So, how could Zhang Qile stay there for an hour?"
"Or …" Zeng Ke guessed, "Did she have another phone? Did she use another phone to talk to someone for a long time? "
"It was very late at that time," Cui Lizhu said. "Wasn't she afraid of standing on the side of the road and talking on the phone?"
"Indeed, it was very late!" Ran Tao said. "In the next hour, only 11 cars passed by. We have also verified the drivers of these cars, and so far, we haven't found any problems.
We even checked all the cars that passed by the blind spot that night. Although the investigation was not very detailed, it was really not suspicious! "
"That's weird!" Cui Lizhu looked at Zeng Ke and asked, "Zeng, could it be that your deduction is wrong? Is there any other possibility besides your speculation?
"How did this woman disappear into thin air?"
Miao Ying said, "Brother Tao, since we have already done it, let's stick to it. Check all the cars that day thoroughly. There must be an explanation for Zhang Qile's disappearance!"
"I know," Ran Tao said. "I'm already doing that!"
After Ran Tao finished speaking, Miao Ying gestured for Zeng Ke to turn off the big screen.
Next, everyone needed to brainstorm and analyze the case again.
At this moment, Miao Ying asked casually, "By the way, Brother Tao, did the driver of the ambulance come for questioning?"
"No!" Ran Tao said. "He hasn't gotten off work yet. He said he would come over tonight!"
"Oh …" Miao Ying nodded, then began to sort out the information and prepare for the case analysis meeting.
"As for the driver … Do we still need to check?" Cui Lizhu asked. "Didn't we rule him out yesterday?"
"Yes!" Ran Tao said. "We tracked the ambulance's trajectory and found that they did return to Chunjiang Hospital!"
"Then, there's no problem!" Cui Lizhu opened her notebook and said, "It can't be that three people kidnapped Zhang Qile together, right?
"Ha ha … Zhang Qile was kidnapped to the hospital?"
Ran Tao thought of something and reported to Miao Ying, "Oh … Speaking of ambulances, we didn't find any ambulances near Chenyang House, whether on the day of the incident or the day before …"
"Mm!" Miao Ying nodded. "Well, let's start the meeting! But … "She thought for a moment, then reminded Ran Tao," Don't just call the driver to the police station. Call the two nurses from the ambulance to make sure that nothing goes wrong!
"What if Cui Lizhu is right?"
Hearing this, Cui Lizhu shrugged her shoulders.
"I know, I've already called them!" Ran Tao said. "Maybe they're already here! I'm not a rookie. Even if I know that there's nothing wrong with them, I'm not going to be sloppy with my work! "
Cui Lizhu gave him a thumbs up.
Then, everyone sat in front of the whiteboard and began to discuss the new case.
However, just as the discussion began, Ran Tao's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?" After answering the phone, Ran Tao's expression suddenly froze. Then, he frowned and repeated, "Did she really say that? That's a bit weird, isn't it? "
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ran Tao quickly covered his phone and said to everyone.
"One of the nurses in the ambulance said that the two of them weren't in the ambulance that night. Because it was close to their home, they got out of the ambulance after sending the patient!"
"Huh?" Miao Ying asked. "Why didn't they say that last time?"
"They got out of the ambulance early and didn't return to the hospital for their shift, which is against the hospital's rules," Ran Tao explained. "They were afraid that their leader would find out, so they lied …"
"So …" Miao Ying's eyes widened. "The ambulance driver …"
"Oh … Oh …" At this time, Ran Tao hurriedly said to everyone, "The ambulance driver has arrived!"
