Grocery Store No.514

On April 3021, 4, after Jiang Chengyan left the hospital in the morning, instead of going to the police station, he called Li Tong, and the two made an appointment to meet at the gate of Huacheng Mall.

Seeing Jiang Chengyan approaching from afar, Li Tong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Captain, here."

Jiang Chengyan walked over quickly and said, "Go to the manager of the mall."

Li Tong followed Jiang Chengyan's footsteps and said, "Captain, have you found anything?"

"Hua An woke up and came up with an idea. I think it's very likely, so I came here to verify it." Jiang Chengyan had no intention of hiding it.

Since Ling Hua'an's accident, although Jiang Chengyan still went to work as usual, the team members who had been with him for many years knew how tight his spirit was, and feared that his string would break, and he would completely collapse.These two admissions of Ling Huaan made them deeply understand how important Ling Huaan is to Jiang Chengyan.Now that Ling Huaan was awake, Li Tong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking back to Jiang Chengyan's tone of voice just now, he laughed and said, "Captain, can you restrain yourself? You forcefully stuff dog food into our mouths every day, really. Can't take it."

Jiang Chengyan's face became hot, and he didn't refute for the first time. After he was deeply aware of Ling Hua'an's influence on him, he chose to accept it calmly, and he also wanted those close to him to realize this. "There's so much nonsense, you have time to think about the case."

Li Tong whispered: "It's not because the captain shows off every day in front of us."

Jiang Chengyan gave him a threatening look, Li Tong quickly shut up.The two soon came to the office of the manager on duty in the mall, because they had been here once before, and they knew the way very well.Gently knocking on the door, Jiang Chengyan pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Hao was on the phone when he saw Jiang Chengyan walking in, he was startled, and then said: "Captain Jiang, you sit down first, I will take care of some things."

Jiang Chengyan nodded, and sat on the sofa beside Li Tong.

Li Hao quickly finished the matter at hand, hung up the phone, looked at Jiang Chengyan, and said, "Captain Jiang, you just came here, are you still here to lose the child's case?"

"Yes. Manager Li, have any of your cleaners resigned recently?"

"Cleaner?" Li Hao frowned slightly, thought for a while and said, "Yes, there was indeed a cleaner who left the job two days ago. Team Jiang, is this related to the case?"

Jiang Chengyan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Who? Manager Li should have her information here."

"Two resigned recently, one is Zhang Cuilian and the other is Ma Hongmei. Team Jiang, wait a minute, I'll look for information." Li Hao opened the employee file, found the information of the two, printed it out, and handed it to Jiang Chengyan.

"Team Jiang, it's just these two. It's strange to say that they resigned at the same time. They didn't say it in person, but sent text messages directly. I was so angry because of this. It's too shameful for them to behave like this. The hasty resignation made it impossible for me to find a replacement for a while, which delayed a lot of things." Li Hao kept complaining.

Jiang Chengyan took the documents and looked carefully, walked to Li Hao, looked at the one-inch photo of the two on the computer screen, and said, "Manager Li, who of the two of them is responsible for the bathroom where the child was lost?"

"You mean the fifth floor? Both of them."

"Who was on duty when the child was lost?"

"Our cleaning work is divided into two shifts. The morning shift is from 9:3 am to 3:9 pm, and the evening shift is from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm. The child disappeared when Zhang Cuilian was at work and Ma Hongmei was on the evening shift."

Jiang Chengyan took out his mobile phone, dialed Wang Bin, and said, "Wang Bin, you and Liu Ran go to No. 32 Xiaowangzhuang, find a middle-aged woman named Zhang Cuilian, confirm his safety, and I will send you the photo later. "

"Yes, Captain."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chengyan called Guo Hai again and said, "Guo Hai, you and Chen Miao go to Unit 4, Unit 1, Building 303, Heping Community, find a middle-aged woman named Ma Hongmei, and bring her back to the police station. I'll send it to you later."

"Yes, Captain."

Jiang Chengyan took photos with his mobile phone and sent them to the two respectively. He looked at Li Hao and said, "Manager Li, we still need to go to the monitoring room to take a look. Please come with us."

"Okay, let's go, I just happen to be not very busy right now."

The three of them came to the monitoring room of the shopping mall together, and at Jiang Chengyan's request, replayed the scenes before and after Lin Miaomiao's disappearance.

"stop."

Jiang Chengyan suddenly called to stop, and the security guard quickly clicked the mouse.

Jiang Chengyan pointed to a middle-aged woman wearing a cleaner's uniform on the screen, and said, "Manager Li, is this cleaner Ma Hongmei?"

Li Hao took a closer look and said, "That's right, it's Ma Hongmei, but it's not yet time for shift change, why is she here?"

Li Tong looked at the surveillance video and asked puzzledly: "This woman is an advanced toilet, and then Lin Fanglu and her daughter walked in. Captain, is there any problem?"

Jiang Chengyan patted the security guard on the shoulder and said, "Brother, please go back and play it from 10:[-]."

"Ok."

Jiang Chengyan pointed to the right side of the screen, where Ma Hongmei appeared, and said, "She followed Lin Fanglu, look at her gaze."

"She's looking at Lin Fanglu's mother and daughter. Captain, what's going on here?"

"stop."

The security guard clicked on the screen again. Jiang Chengyan pointed to the frozen frame and said, "Look at Lin Fanglu's movements. She squatted down to talk to Lin Miaomiao, and then pointed to the toilet. Look at Ma Hongmei again. She did this after Lin Fanglu After the action, enter the toilet."

Jiang Chengyan patted the security guard again, and said, "Brother, keep letting it go."

The security guard gave one command and one action, and played the surveillance video again.

"Li Tong, look, after Ma Hongmei entered, Lin Fanglu rummaged in the bag for a while, and then led Lin Miaomiao into the toilet." Jiang Chengyan paused, and then said: "Stop."

The security guard paused the surveillance video again. Jiang Chengyan pointed to the middle-aged woman on the screen and said, "Manager Li, is this Zhang Cuilian?"

"Yes, that's right. Zhang Cuilian is short and fat, and Ma Hongmei is tall and thin. They are easy to recognize."

Jiang Chengyan nodded and said, "Brother, let it go."

Until Ma Hongmei's figure appeared in the surveillance video again, Jiang Chengyan had confirmed Ling Huaan's guess.

"Ring ring ring", the phone rang, Jiang Chengyan looked at the screen and connected the phone directly. "Hey, Guo Hai, how's it going? Did you find someone?"

"Captain, we have knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded. It should be because there is no one at home."

"Go to the monitoring room of the community, get the surveillance video after the 14th, and confirm whether Ma Hongmei is still renting in the Heping community."

"Captain, what's going on with Ma Hongmei? Why are you investigating her?"

"I suspect that it was she who took Lin Miaomiao away, so when you check the surveillance, you must pay attention to whether she has ever dragged a suitcase or other things that can hold Lin Miaomiao."

"Yes, Captain." Although Guo Hai was still at a loss, he finally knew the reason.

"Captain, why do you say that Ma Hongmei is the one who took Lin Miaomiao away?" Li Tong is also Zhang Er's monk now - he couldn't figure it out.

"Manager Li, we have to go to the bathroom where the accident happened, and I have to ask you to send someone to invite the customers out."

Hearing that Lin Miaomiao was taken away by an employee of the mall, in order to get rid of the suspicion, Manager Li cooperated very much. After checking the duty list, he went directly to the absorber who had the accident.The cleaner put a sign of "under maintenance" at the door of the bathroom, waited for a while, saw no one came out again, went in to check again, and then came over and said: "Manager, there is no one in there, do you need us to clean it?" ?”

Li Hao didn't answer, but looked at Jiang Chengyan.

Jiang Chengyan looked at the cleaning truck parked at the door. In front was a bucket for rinsing mops, next to brooms and dustpans, in the middle was a three-tiered shelf with various cleaning supplies, and behind it was a big brown cloth bag, about 1 meter high, 30 cm wide and 80 cm long.Easy for a 5 year old to get in.

"Manager Li, is this cleaning vehicle available on every floor, and is it fixed somewhere for use?"

"Yes, two cars per floor, use fixed."

"The bathroom doesn't need to be cleaned. Let's go in and have a look. There are also two cleaning vehicles on this floor that we need to take back to collect evidence."

"Okay, we must cooperate with Team Jiang's work, and hope Team Jiang can solve the case soon." Y. U. X. I.

"I'll do my best." Jiang Chengyan naturally understood what he meant. After all, this is a shopping mall, and the police would always come to investigate cases, which would easily arouse the suspicion of the public and even affect their business.

Jiang Chengyan walked into the women's toilet and carefully checked the layout inside. There were four rows of cubicles facing each other, and each row had five cubicles. There were a total of twenty squatting seats. The corridor in the middle was not wide, only about one meter long. But even so, compared to other shopping malls, this place is not small.

Jiang Chengyan explained Ling Huaan's hypothesis to Li Tong in detail, and then said: "The surveillance video shows that Lin Fanglu took out a few tissues and stuffed them into Lin Miaomiao's pocket. We can at least speculate about this behavior. Two points, one: Lin Miaomiao also needs to go to the toilet; two: Lin Fanglu has no plan to go with her. Do you agree?"

Li Tong nodded and agreed, "It's very likely."

"Ma Hongmei entered the toilet in advance and coaxed Zhang Cuilian away, and every move of Lin Fanglu's mother and daughter was monitored by her. If she entered the cubicle where Lin Miaomiao was, she would knock Lin Miaomiao into a coma, and then clean the cubicle in the name of cleaning. If the door of the room is locked, then the development of the matter is exactly as Hua An guessed."

"Captain, do you suspect that Ma Hongmei transferred Lin Miaomiao to the cleaning van before Lin Fanglu returned to the toilet to look for it?"

"I really guessed that. As for whether it is true or not, I have to send it to the forensic department for verification."

The phone rang again, Jiang Chengyan looked at it, connected the phone directly, and said, "Liu Ran, did you find Zhang Cuilian?"

"Captain, Zhang Cuilian is missing."

"Missing?" Jiang Chengyan frowned, and said, "Did the family report the crime?"

"Yes, the case was reported three days ago."

"Tell me about the situation. When did Zhang Cuilian disappear?"

"On the 14th, Zhang Cuilian went to work in the mall in the morning, and never came back after that."

"No. 14? It's been more than ten days. Why did the family members report the crime three days ago?"

"At 14:3 p.m. on the 35th, Zhang Cuilian's husband, Huang Aimin, received a text message from Zhang Cuilian. Zhang Cuilian said that her mother was sick and needed to go back to her natal home for two days. Huang Aimin didn't care about it until Zhang Cuilian's natal home three days ago. When someone came, I realized that Zhang Cuilian hadn’t gone back at all, and the phone was turned off after calling, so I called the police.”

"Okay, I see. Please find out the specific situation of the day. Ask Huang Aimin if you know a middle-aged woman named Ma Hongmei who also works as a cleaner in the shopping mall."

"Yes, Captain."
