ex-husband high energy

Chapter 42 S2.E21.

The sun rises as usual, another busy day.

Early in the morning, Zong Ming took Levi to visit the colleague who Qi Ran had given the red envelope to. As expected, after Qi Ran resigned, he had asked for reinstatement.

"Her daughter's grades were not good that year, so she wanted to stay without pay for a period of time to help her with her homework." A colleague told Zong Ming and Levi's, "At that time she was already the deputy manager of the sales department, and our director intended to raise her Manager, so I suggested that she hire a tutor or enroll her child in a cram school. But Qi Ran was very persistent at the time, and the director finally agreed to leave her without pay and ensure that she would still be the deputy manager after she came back.”

"Then why didn't she come back to resume her job?" Zong Ming asked.

"Because our director changed jobs." The colleague said regretfully, "He immigrated to a foreign country, and the company changed a new director, who happened to be the former manager who was almost dismissed by Qi Ran. What do you say about the new director, he is a bit narrow-minded Well, in addition to having a nepotism with the boss of the group company above, Qi Ran was embarrassed and asked her to go back to the store and start from grass-roots sales. We all felt that he did this unethically, and Qi Ran’s ability as a manager was more than enough , and when she left before, there was a suspension agreement, and it was agreed to keep the position."

"Didn't she apply for labor arbitration?" Zong Ming asked.

"The problem lies in the agreement." The colleague said, "The agreement only said to retain the position, but not to retain the original position. The new director just grasped this point and thought that as long as she was given a position, it didn't have to be a deputy manager."

"So Qi Ran left?"

"Yes, she was so angry that she resigned directly. Later we thought she would go to another company, but she just went home like this and never came out to work again."

Zong Ming pondered for a moment, then asked: "She came to give you red envelopes that day, didn't she talk to you about other things? Does she have any intention to come out to work again?"

"No, I was preparing for the wedding that day, and the family was full of people. She gave me a red envelope at the door, said congratulations, and left." The colleague said, "I wanted to invite her in for a while, but she said she still had something to do." go first."

Coming out of his colleague's house, Zong Ming frowned and thought deeply. He didn't ask Levi until he got in the car, "How long did you wait for her when you sent her over that day?"

Levi's remembers this very clearly: "10 minutes, she was very punctual, and she agreed that 10 minutes would be 10 minutes."

Zong Ming looked at his watch and said, "It took us one and a half minutes to walk from the place where you parked to the door just now, and it took 3 minutes to go back and forth. She only handed a red envelope at the door and said congratulations... that's at least She still has 5 minutes, will she go somewhere else?"

After thinking about it, Levi also felt a little strange: "Did she not only meet this colleague that night, but also other people?"

"Who could it be?" Zong Ming looked at the row upon row of buildings outside the car window, glanced at one window after another, and murmured, "We have to find this person. This person may be the 'eye' of the whole case."

Levi's eyes flicked out of the window, and he couldn't help nodding his head. In such a densely populated neighborhood, finding someone who doesn't know if he exists is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

When the car turned off the auxiliary road, Zong Ming's cell phone rang. It was Captain Liu, saying that they had just arrested a suspect in Zhao Yigang's disappearance.

Levi's was very surprised: "Have you found the suspect? So fast? Who is it?"

Zong Ming put away his phone and looked at the sky: "Who else? Jiao Lei's stick!"

After the beating incident on the street, Zong Ming expressed his regret for Jiao Lei's IQ, and gave this glorious firefighter a four-character comment - big chest and no brains.

"How on earth did he get into the ranks of the People's Liberation Army? Are vases popular in the ranks now?" Zong Ming complained sharper than Miss Omega.

In fact, Li Weisi thinks that Jiao Lei is not as bad as Zong Ming said. It is undeniable that his character is a bit reckless, but at the same time he is jealous and courageous. Lei was the first to climb up the ladder and rescue them.

He takes good care of his colleagues. He is the first to rush forward when there is any difficulty. He is also very kind to his sister. He also knows how to help her sister take care of the parrot. It can be seen that he is a kind and righteous person. .

Half an hour later, they arrived at the police station and finally learned the whole picture of the matter.

According to the procedure of handling the case, Captain Liu and the others sorted out Zhao Yigang's social relations immediately after the disappearance, and then investigated the people who had conflicts with him one by one. Jiao Lei was also under investigation because he had fought with him before. List.

Then they discovered that on the morning of Zhao Yigang's disappearance, Jiao Lei asked for leave from the fire brigade, left at 02:30 am, and did not return until [-]:[-] pm. During this time, no one knew where he had been.

This time period coincided with the time when Zhao Yigang disappeared, so Captain Liu sent Jiao Lei under arrest.

In the interrogation room, Jiao Lei sat on the chair opposite Captain Liu, still a little confused: "Yesterday morning? Yesterday morning I asked for leave to go to the northern suburbs."

"Where is the northern suburb?"

"Green Field Park."

"What do you do in the park on weekdays?"

"Zhao Yi just asked me to go." Jiao Lei said, "He called me and said that there was something very important about my sister and he had to talk to me."

"Have you seen him?"

"No." Jiao Lei said honestly, "I waited for him for several hours, but he didn't come and didn't answer the call, so I went back to the fire brigade."

Captain Liu looked at him for a long time and said, "Zhao Yi just disappeared yesterday morning."

"What?" Jiao Lei's eyes widened in surprise, "Missing? Impossible? He called me after nine o'clock... Wait, when did he disappear?"

"Just after you asked for leave and left." Captain Liu said, "Around 10:30."

Jiao Lei was stunned, and then understood something: "You suspect that I kidnapped him?"

Captain Liu was noncommittal, and asked him: "You said you went to Green Field Park, can anyone testify for you?"

Jiao Lei thought for a while, then shook his head: "No, I went there by motorcycle, and I met no acquaintances on the way. Yesterday was a working day, and there was no one in the park, and I didn't even meet the administrator..." While talking , while changing his face, he is now aware of the seriousness of the matter. As the only person who had a direct confrontation with Zhao Yigang, he suddenly disappeared at such a sensitive time. If he said that he had nothing to do with this matter, no one would believe it. .

"But I did receive a call from him." Jiao Lei took out his phone, and handed it to Captain Liu, "It's the number, you can check it."

Captain Liu asked someone to write down the number, went out to check the owner's information, and then said to him: "This is not Zhao Yigang's number. Are you sure the person you are talking to is Zhao Yigang?"

Jiao Lei was at a loss for words, paused, and shook his head: "I don't know. He called at the time and claimed to be Zhao Yigang. I think his voice is quite similar, so I don't doubt it."

Captain Liu nodded, indicating that he understood.After a while, the criminal policeman in charge of checking the number went back and forth: "I checked, the owner of the phone is a vegetable vendor, and he said he never made this call, so it is probably a set number. The information officer is still checking, but the ones found may be Not very sexual."

Jiao Lei brushed his hair irritably, and said, "Believe it or not, I really went to Beijiao Park. Because he said it was about my sister, I only waited there for three hours... In fact, I was a little skeptical when he didn't arrive on time at first, but... I just don't give up, my sister has been missing for so long, I'm worried... I'm worried that she won't come back again. "

He rubbed his face, looking sad and worried.Through a single-sided glass, Levi's felt uncomfortable, and asked Zong Ming: "Do you think he is suspected?"

"Impossible." Zong Ming said without hesitation.

Levi's breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then can he be cleared of suspicion?"

"Should be able." Zong Ming said, "Later they will call the traffic surveillance according to the route he said, as long as there are a few surveillance cameras photographing him, he will be cleared of suspicion. Even if he is unlucky to avoid it All surveillance and his mobile phone location track can be used as supporting evidence, the police have no direct evidence to prove that he kidnapped Zhao Yigang, and they will detain him for a few hours at most, and will not file a public prosecution."

"Who is calling him?" Levi asked with a headache, "Who would frame him in this way? What's the use of framing him?"

"It disturbs the line of sight, distracts the police, or there are other reasons that we don't know." Zong Ming said, "No matter what, the person who framed him will immediately make a move. The summons generally does not exceed 24 hours, and before noon tomorrow We'll know the answer."

At lunch time, Levi took a box lunch and fed it to Jiao Lei, comforting him by the way.Jiao Lei was quite calm, asked him about Montgomery's situation, and said that he might be able to take the little parrot home soon.

"Do you want to rent a house?" Levi asked, "Can't you live in a dormitory?"

Jiao Lei's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "I may not be able to do this for long."

Levi asked unexpectedly: "How?"

"Several incidents happened in a row, and the higher-ups were very dissatisfied with me." Jiao Lei said, "If I hadn't worked hard in the past, I might have been suspended...Our captain told me last time that there was too much pressure from public opinion, and I would He couldn't keep me from anything, so he told me to be careful. As a result, he only finished talking for a few days, and today I... Well, I knew that my bad temper would cause trouble sooner or later. "

In fact, his personality is not bad, and he is quite smart, but his temper is a little straight. Levi's advised him: "Don't think so, the clean is clean, you haven't done anything bad, why should you pay for the trumped-up charges?"

Jiao Lei pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said: "Don't persuade me, I understand, my character is too easy to be used, it was the same in the army, and it is the same now... let's change it slowly, this time the lesson is too big gone."

"You're a bit out of order because it's about your sister." Levi patted him on the shoulder, "It'll be fine after this hurdle, and everything will be fine."

"I hope." Jiao Lei pulled himself together and said, "It's all up to you. I can see that you and your director are the ones who do great things."

Levi thought about Zong Ming, and had to admit that he was right: "We will work hard."

After leaving the interrogation room, Levi went to Zong Ming's office for dinner - in order to facilitate them to observe the case, Captain Liu made a small room for Zong Ming as an office - when he entered, Zong Ming had already prepared a meal for him, fish-flavored eggplant , braised pork, stir-fried pumpkin with vegetables, the cafeteria aunt at the police station seemed to have a grudge against the ingredients, and fried everything beyond recognition.

Zong Ming is a picky eater, he would rather not eat something that is not tasty.It’s not easy to do special things in the police station and order takeaway every day, Levi can only try to take care of him, and give him a little bit of the pumpkin on his plate, and put the eggplant and fat on his plate to his side, Said: "Try to eat as much as possible, pumpkin is okay."

Zong Ming was a little touched, made him a cup of instant milk tea, and touched his head by the way: "I'll make chicken noodle soup for you when I get home tonight. Look at you, you've been helping me eat fat recently, and I've gained weight."

"..." Levi squeezed the non-existent swimming ring on his waist, not knowing where he saw that he was fat.

In fact, fat meat is quite delicious. Braised pork with pork, elbow, plum and vegetables... is easy to gain weight and has three highs. Oh, this seems to be the most taboo thing for old men?Levi looked at his boss sympathetically, thinking to himself that it is actually quite hard for him to maintain such a good figure, right?

After lunch, after a short rest, Sang Han sent a document.This kid is worthy of being a fast player. In the morning, he has sorted out a lot of Qi Ran's information on the Internet, including the WeChat groups she has participated in, the Weibo she has followed, the forums she has registered, and the Taobao stores she has purchased... and psychiatrists who have been consulted.

Yes, no matter how strong a person is, there are hurdles that he can't overcome. After failing to reinstate his job, Qi Ran once did psychological counseling for a period of time.

Levi and Zong Ming drove to a well-known psychological counseling center in the eastern suburbs, and made an appointment with the doctor who had consulted Qi Ran.

"Qi Ran? She is quite special." The doctor checked Qi Ran's medical records on the computer and said, "On the surface, she is perfect in all aspects. She works hard, has outstanding achievements, and has a harmonious family. Brilliant. But she actually has a little bit of a personality disorder."

"Personality disorder?" Zong Ming frowned, "Are you sure?"

"Yes." The doctor said, "I have done psychological counseling for her three times, and found that she has a very obsessive compulsive psychology towards herself and others, and she is too harsh. For example, her daughter, she always feels that she is not working hard enough and is too playful. , not studying well. But in fact, her daughter is already very good, she can enter the top ten in the class in the exam, and the teacher's evaluation is also very good. And her husband, she is very disappointed in him, thinking that he is not sociable and has too little emotional damage. As a result, her academic ability has not been recognized for many years. While criticizing others, she is also criticizing herself, thinking that she is not demanding enough and her supervision is not in place, which leads to her family’s failure to achieve success—the kind of extreme success she thinks.”

"I found a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder in her, ranging from home decoration to teaspoon placement, including her daughter's sitting posture and chopsticks. She will use a similar military standard to make requirements." The doctor read through Medical Records, went on to say, "Beyond that, she had a slightly theatrical personality. She demanded to be at her best all the time, to appear attractive, flawless, and enviable. For those who liked her, she thought The other party is smart and discerning, and will try his best to win over the other party and make himself a social center in a certain sense."

"I understand." Zong Ming said, "Have you talked to her about this?"

The doctor replied: "I saw her three times in total. The first two times I was almost sure that she had a personality disorder. The third time I met her, I gently reminded her that she would realize the seriousness of the problem and cooperate with my treatment. She was very surprised at that time. , she feels that she is just a little bit lost because of her unsatisfactory career and needs some comfort. She thinks that her high standards and strict demands on her family and herself are completely correct, and she has not even done enough. "

"Then what? She became angry and quit the consultation?"

"No, she said that she has recognized her problem and found a way to solve it." The doctor said, "I advise her to receive formal psychological treatment and not to believe those unqualified liars-now there are many people who claim to be A 'Master' who dares to be someone else's life mentor after publishing a few specious chicken soup books is very harmful. But she is very confident and does not accept my advice at all."

"You haven't been in touch since then?"

"Yes." The doctor said helplessly, "We are not a mandatory institution, we can only respect the opinions of the consultants."

After coming out of the consulting agency, Levi asked Zong Ming: "Her situation is very similar to Wang Hao. Wang Hao also suddenly got better and no longer received psychological treatment...they will be in contact with the same 'master' later. Or some underground organization?"

"I don't know." Zong Ming shook his head, "Wang Hao said before he died that he received a message on the campus network. I asked Sang Han to check it, but nothing was found. If there is really an underground organization, such as the first Nine Funds and the like, they must have very powerful hackers under their command, and they are responsible for clearing their traces afterwards."

"Then what should we do now?" Levi got into the car and asked Zong Ming while holding the steering wheel.

"Sort through Qi Ran's WeChat chat history, look at the posts she has read, and look for possible clues." Zong Ming said, "Sang Han said that she once participated in a mutual aid meeting. I checked, and that mutual aid meeting is held every Friday night. We'll check it out tomorrow night."

After four o'clock, they returned to Shihu Farm and looked at the materials collected by Sang Han in Zong Ming's room.At seven o'clock in the evening, Zong Ming went down to make chicken noodle soup, and Barton told Levi to go down half way.

"Ask me to help?" Levi walked into the kitchen and found that the chicken soup was still boiling in the casserole. Zong Ming had reconciled the dough and was sitting on a high chair looking at his phone.

"Come and see, regarding Jiao Lei, the sufferer has issued a statement." Zong Ming waved.Levi's leaned over and found that he was watching a Weibo video posted by the big V who interviewed Zhao Yigang last time.

In the video is a familiar face——Qi Ran. She looks very haggard, her eyes are red and swollen, and her face is pale. Although she deliberately uses makeup to cover it up, she still looks old and tired.Her voice was also hoarse, probably because she had been crying for too long, but her tone was much calmer than when the crime happened yesterday, and her speech was as clear and logical as before.

Big V asked her what she thinks about the arrest of Jiao Lei by the police, and whether she thinks he is related to her husband's disappearance.Qi Ran's answer was sad and restrained. On the one hand, she expressed her indignation at the murderer who kidnapped her husband, and on the other hand, she expressed her high support for the work of the police. As for Jiao Lei, she said that she fully believed in the police's judgment: "I will not be detained because of the police report." Who would rashly focus their hatred on a certain person, the truth is unknown, and any emotional behavior will hinder the police from solving the case. I will not do this kind of thing that makes relatives hurt and enemies happy. I also hope People from all walks of life can deal with it calmly, and don't criticize Jiao Lei too much. I believe that the law is fair, and sooner or later I will give an explanation to my children."

The big V asked her her opinion on the selection of young scientists.Qi Ran expressed that she was very disappointed, and even wished that her husband had never participated in it: "I don't care if my husband wins any awards, even if there are no awards, his academic achievements in the field of optoelectronic display are objective and indelible. I Thank you for the affirmation given to him by the organizing committee after the arraignment, whether it was due to pressure from public opinion or for other reasons. But now I really hope they can disqualify my husband from the election."

"Anyway, the result is the same now." She looked at the camera almost indifferently, her eyes were a little desperate, a little mocking, "At least he won't disappear. I would rather he bear the stigma of being disqualified than My kids have lost the best dad ever."

After closing the video, Zong Ming asked Levi: "Didn't you ask me, what's the use of framing Jiao Lei?"

Levi's vaguely understood something, Zong Ming sneered, put the woken dough into a noodle press and pressed it into fine noodles, saying: "It's not over yet, things will be clearer tomorrow morning."

As expected, at 11:30 the next morning, when Jiao Lei was about to be released, the Young Scientists Selection Organizing Committee issued an announcement stating that the disappearance case of this year’s selection had caused a great social impact, and four consecutive Candidates disappeared without reason. In order to ensure fairness and extensiveness, the tradition that previous candidates must be present for defense is no longer followed, and all links are completed in writing by the reviewers.

For those candidates who cannot be present for some reason, their family members can attend on their behalf and accept the award on the stage.

At noon, Zong Ming stood at the narrow office window, looked at the sky with dark clouds outside, and said quietly, "It's time to close the net."

Levi's looked at the address he wrote on the sticky note and the dense lines drawn on the map, a little clear and a little confused.

Zong Ming stood for a while, then turned around and said, "Let's go, let's find the missing person."
