"What is it?"
Liu Yi clenched his teeth. "It might be left behind by Ren Jianhua."
Zhao Ming snorted. "So, you admit that it was the hotel staff who stole the customer's laptop?"
"No, no, absolutely not. He left it in the hotel. At first, we thought that he forgot about it, so we kept it for him. Later on, we don't know who it was … so we took it out and used it." Liu Yi hurriedly explained.
Tian Li also walked over. Checking the laptop, she questioned, "Since you know that it's the customer's lost item, why didn't you send it to the police station?"
"I …" Liu Yi wiped the sweat off his forehead. "I didn't know about it before. It was the hotel staff who acted on their own."
"What about your hotel's rules? Didn't you say that your hotel had a rule to reserve the customer's room for three days? Just because the customer owed your so-called three days' room fee, you took possession of the customer's item? "Tian Li's tone was a little strict as she berated.
"Do you know that this customer might have met with a mishap, and there's important evidence in this laptop? If the evidence is destroyed, can you bear the responsibility?"
Liu Yi was a little flustered. He looked at Tian Li, then at Zhao Ming, and finally at Han Bin.
Among the three, Han Bin appeared to be the calmest. Liu Yi was in the business of receiving customers and sending them off. He was also a discerning person and knew who was in charge.
"Officer Han, I know I was wrong. I will definitely manage the hotel staff well in the future. Something like this will definitely not happen again. I am willing to cooperate with the police. Whatever you want me to do, I will not hesitate." Liu Yi begged.
A small hotel like theirs was most afraid of getting involved in this kind of thing. A word from Han Bin could very well cause his hotel to be unable to operate.
Han Bin warned, "I don't care what method you use, and I don't care who you ask. I want to know the details of Ren Jianhua's stay in the hotel and the details of his departure. If I find any more lies, come back with me to the police station."
"Yes, yes. I will ask now and report to you." Saying so, Liu Yi took out his phone to make a call.
"Just play here and play on the speakers."
Although Liu Yi was reluctant, he still followed Han Bin's instructions and called the employees who had come into contact with Ren Jianhua in front of the three of them.
Zhao Ming turned on the laptop and began to check the information and surfing records.
Han Bin, on the other hand, listened to Liu Yi's phone call to prevent him from colluding with his employees.
In the process of questioning, Han Bin also roughly understood the situation.
Because it had been almost a month since the incident, the hotel staff could not remember the situation when Ren Jianhua checked in. However, they knew the time when he left the hotel. It was 9 am on January 11th. Some staff saw him leave the hotel and did not return after that.
As for the matter of the hotel detaining the items, perhaps it was as Liu Yi had said, the hotel had thought that the client might have forgotten or was unable to return in time, so they kept the items for the client for a period of time.
Later on, no one came to claim the items, so the hotel had other ideas. Other than a laptop, Ren Jianhua did not leave behind any other valuable items. A second-hand laptop was not worth much, so it would be a waste not to use it.
As for the matter of sending the client's lost items to the police station, Liu Yi did not even think about it. In his opinion, it was better to avoid trouble.
If it was not related to his own interests, who would be willing to deal with the police?
After understanding Ren Jianhua's situation in the hotel, Han Bin took the hard drive of the surveillance video and Ren Jianhua's items and left the hotel.
After watching Han Bin and the other two leave in the car, Liu Yi heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that his legs were weak, and he held onto the electric pole at the side.
I am not short of money. In the future, I will not be greedy for such small advantages.
Back in the car.
Han Bin and the other two began to discuss the case.
"Brother Bin, this Liu Yi is really not a good person. He should have handed over the evidence to the police station as soon as possible. Who knows, the police might have already discovered Ren Jianhua's whereabouts." Zhao Ming snorted.
"There are many people who love to take advantage of others." Han Bin said indifferently.
"If he can afford to open a hotel, he definitely does not lack money. As for the reason why he took the laptop that the client left in the hotel?" Zhao Ming said.
"This has nothing to do with money. Some people are born to take advantage of others. Even if he earns ten thousand yuan himself, it would be better to get one thousand yuan from someone else. What he wants is the feeling of taking advantage of others. It makes him feel happy." After Han Bin finished speaking, he changed the topic.
"Did you find anything on the computer?"
Zhao Ming opened the laptop screen. "I checked the internet records on the 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th. He probably browsed three types of websites. The first type is the websites with colors. They are all Japanese action movies."
"Pfft." Tian Li spat.
Zhao Ming laughed and continued, "The second type is the gaming website. The third type is the job hunting website. He is most likely looking for a job. "
Han Bin took the laptop and browsed through the website history for the past three days. He had a rough idea.
"Drive to the traffic police surveillance center."
Zhao Ming shrugged and did not say much. Although it was the same old story, checking the surveillance was indeed the most direct and effective way to investigate.
If they could find out who Ren Jianhua had contact with before his disappearance, the whole case would be solved.
Tian Li held her phone. "Team Leader, I just checked on the internet. Some of the phone numbers that Ren Jianhua called have a lot of recruitment information. It is very likely that he is looking for a job."
Han Bin thought for a moment. "Check carefully and see which companies he has been to."
"Yes."
Han Bin had been comparing the similarities between Zhao Xiaoshan and Ren Jianhua's disappearance. At first glance, the two seemed to be in the same city and basically had nothing to do with each other. However, with a little analysis, he could find that the two had something in common.
Or rather, the two had the same needs.
First, Zhao Xiaoshan had been hiding his real job. He did not tell his girlfriend or family. From this point, it could be seen that he looked down on his job.
Moreover, Zhao Xiaoshan had already planned to resign and no longer be a beautician.
Previously, Han Bin had always thought that after Zhao Xiaoshan resigned, he might become a full-time writer.
However, after investigating Ren Jianhua, Han Bin had some changes in his mind.
The online writer industry was also not recognized by the majority of society. Chen Xia was the best example.
As for Ren Jianhua, the other party pretended to be rich and treated his classmates to food and drink. He had face, but he also owed a lot of online loans.
After the holidays, Ren Jianhua did not go home immediately. Instead, he stayed in Qingdao City. It was very likely that he found a job before the New Year so that he could go to work next year to pay off his online loans.
Ren Jianhua was already in his fourth year and could do an internship.
The victims of the two cases did not seem to be directly related, but they both had the same need to find a job.
Han Bin boldly guessed that the two victims might have interviewed for the same company.
