Chapter 580 Stories in the Diary
Chen Yan still understands Li Yun's abilities.
He handles cases carefully and has rich experience. He has been working in the Third Detective Team for half his life and has experienced hundreds to dozens of cases.
Although there are very few major cases, there are indeed a lot of trivial cases, cases of stealing and missing persons, and cases of missing persons.
It can be said that every leader of the grassroots detective team who has risen from the ranks of frontline detectives is an expert in handling these small cases.
Although it does not mean that every case they handle can be solved, the experience they have accumulated is indeed rich.
In these aspects, Chen Yan is actually inferior to them.
After all, this is something accumulated, an experience gained from solving crimes over many years.
Taking this disappearance case as an example, Li Yun has actually investigated almost all the clues that can be investigated now.
The route that Chen Ziqiang went missing that day was just a short distance away, and the surveillance cameras were all checked, but nothing was found.
What does this mean?
This shows that Chen Ziqiang’s disappearance was probably not his own wish.
But it is carefully planned.
Coincidence cannot be avoided by so many surveillance cameras.
It is only possible with careful planning.
So, if Chen Ziqiang was skipping classes or leaving the campus by himself, would he be so cautious?
Looking at Chen Yan's serious expression, Li Yun seemed to have other guesses in his mind.
"Captain Chen... do you think Chen Ziqiang's disappearance... is a problem?"
has a problem?
What could be the problem!
The entire school was searched, but nothing was found.
What does this mean?
Chen Yan nodded solemnly: "If Chen Ziqiang simply skipped class, he shouldn't have left any traces."
"It is impossible for a student to study the surveillance cameras in the school so thoroughly. Besides, the 100 meters away from where Chen Ziqiang disappeared is a surveillance cage."
"No matter where Chen Ziqiang leaves this surveillance blind spot, there are surveillance cameras around him that can spot him."
It is true that Li Yun and the others sent a lot of manpower, and after three days of searching, no trace of Chen Ziqiang was found.
"Captain Chen, what do you mean?"
"Carry out a carpet search!"
Chen Yan stood at the door of the laboratory building and pointed to the nearby surveillance cage: "Send on-site investigators to conduct a carpet-like search of the nearby area."
"Especially in hidden corners such as bathrooms and floor drains, search them according to the standards of a murder scene!"
Murder scene?
Li Yun was slightly startled, and his expression was a little surprised, but he did not object to Chen Yan's judgment.
Chen Ziqiang disappeared without a trace. If he was just skipping class, it seemed unreasonable at all.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now!"
Afterwards, Li Yun contacted the school.
Using the excuse of maintenance of the experimental building, this area was blocked.
More than twenty detectives moved in and conducted a blanket search of the area.
Chen Yan arrived at Chen Ziqiang's dormitory.
The boys' dormitory of Liancheng Vocational and Technical College has eight rooms. There are eight big boys living in the small house. The house is not neat and tidy, it is dirty and messy.
"Uncle Detective, the bed on the upper right side by the window is Chen Ziqiang's bed."
The person who led Chen Yan over was Wang Canyang, Chen Ziqiang's roommate in the same dormitory, and Chen Ziqiang's best friend.
"Has Chen Ziqiang told you recently that he is leaving school?"
Wang Canyang shook his head: "I didn't say that. He said he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach during class that day. He had diarrhea in the morning. We all know that he came back on his own after the teacher allowed the leave."
"Later, when we went back to the dormitory for lunch break, I didn't see him and didn't care. But in the afternoon, we hadn't seen Chen Ziqiang back yet."
"Then I called him, but the phone was always turned off and there was no connection."
"We told the teacher about this during class in the afternoon and then called the police."
"Does Chen Ziqiang usually skip classes?"
Wang Canyang shook his head: "Those of us who entered vocational and technical colleges were not good at learning at first. Chen Ziqiang and I studied beauty and hairdressing."
"Generally those who learn these things are from poor families. Our tuition fees are very expensive every semester, so the teacher doesn't care whether you skip class or not during class."
"Whether we learn well or not is our own business. So when we first started school last year, everyone skipped classes and went out to play, including nights at Internet cafes, etc. But this year we stopped going out."
"Besides, there is no question whether we should skip class or not. The teacher doesn't care about us. We can go out at any time if we want. There is no need for Ziqiang to run out on our backs."
"I think something must have happened to him!"
problem occurs?
"Does he have any enemies?"
Wang Canyang shook his head: "We are just poor students, how can we have any enemies?"
"There are some gangsters in the school, but they have nothing to do with us. We all avoid them."
"Usually, there are some fights between classmates, but if you want to talk about enemies, you can't talk about them."
Chen Yan was very tall and could see everything on Chen Ziqiang's bed without tiptoeing.
The bed was a little messy and not folded, and the quilt was a little dirty. It could be seen that it had not been washed for a while.
Looking at the other beds, they are all similar.
"Does Chen Ziqiang have a girlfriend?"
"How can he have a girlfriend?"
"I heard that there are many girls in your vocational and technical college, and the relationship between classmates is not so good...How come Chen Ziqiang doesn't have a girlfriend?"
Wang Canyang shook his head: "That's all from the old calendar. Our school used to be exactly what you said."
"The teachers in the school don't care. The former students were just crazy about having sex. Both men and women had sex with each other."
"But we didn't catch that good time."
When Wang Canyang talked about it, he seemed to yearn for the old school atmosphere: "It's no longer like that now."
"Most students are busy learning a trade so they can find a job and make money after graduating early."
“The female classmates in our school are having sex with us and they don’t like us at all.”
"No matter how handsome we are, no matter how good we are at hip-hop, and no matter how cool we are, in the end we will just be haircutters and spoon-weavers."
"Girls nowadays are very realistic. When looking for a boyfriend, they only look for rich men."
"How can any girl like us, who have no money at home and learn a craft here?"
When Wang Canyang spoke again, Chen Yan carefully analyzed the changes in his expression.
Only regret, no lies.
Chen Yan opened the quilt on Chen Ziqiang's bed and looked at it carefully.
There was just a pillow, a quilt, and two nails driven into the wall at the head and end of the bed, and clothes were hung on them.
Dormitory shops are all configured in this way.
The room is small, there are many people, and there is no wardrobe. All the clothes can only be hung on the wall.
Those in the upper bunk will drive nails into the wall, while those in the lower bunk will tie ropes directly to the two bedposts.
At the door, there are two rows of iron cabinets on the left and right.
Each person has a small square space. Clothes cannot be placed, but some personal belongings can be placed.
"Which cabinet belongs to Chen Ziqiang?"
"Well, the cabinet with the yellow lock in the middle on the right belongs to Ziqiang."
Chen Yan followed the direction of Wang Canyang's finger and looked at the small cabinet.
The key to the lock on the small cabinet must have been missing. Chen Yan stepped forward, put on his gloves, and pressed lightly.
Click.
In Wang Canyang's shocked eyes, the lock snapped.
"You...this..."
Chen Yan smiled slightly and weighed the lock he had just taken off: "This small lock looks strong, but it is not resistant to twisting. It can be fixed with a little force."
Ignoring Wang Canyang's still shocked and confused gaze, Chen Yan looked at the small cabinet that had been opened.
The cabinet has very little space and can't hold much, but because it can be locked, everyone's valuables in the dormitory are in the small cabinet.
Chen Ziqiang is no exception.
Chen Yan took a quick look and found that there were actually no valuables. A poor student would not have anything valuable.
In a book, there was 320 yuan and a game console.
This was somewhat beyond Chen Yan's expectations. Although this handheld console was not a new model, it was not cheap to buy it back then.
"Do you like Chen Ziqiang finishing the game?"
Wang Canyang seemed to have not recovered from the shock of Chen Yan breaking the lock with one hand just now, and his eyes were still staring at the lock that Chen Yan had put aside.
"Xiao Wang..."
"ah?"
Chen Yan patted Wang Canyang on the shoulder and woke the young man up from the shock: "There is a handheld console in Chen Ziqiang's cabinet. Does he like to play games?"
"This stuff isn't cheap."
"Ah, you asked this."
Wang Canyang nodded: "I like to play. We all like to play handheld games in our dormitory, but they are too expensive and we can't afford them."
"Zi Qiang's is a second-hand item I bought last month. It belongs to a second-generation rich man in our school. He has been playing with it for several years. I gave it to Zi Qiang for 500 yuan."
"This guy had to eat instant noodles for a month before he could save the money to buy a handheld device."
Chen Yan nodded and put down the phone.
Apart from a book holding 320 yuan and this handheld computer, there was only a diary left in the cabinet.
Taking out the diary, Chen Yan opened it and looked at it casually.
"Xiao Wang, does Chen Ziqiang have the habit of writing a diary?"
write diary……
Most people don't have this habit. Among the many people Chen Yan knows, there are only three or five who often keep diaries.
Among the cases I handled, I only encountered one person who kept a diary.
However, most of the things recorded in the diary are very real thoughts of the diary writer, and even some secrets that will not be mentioned to outsiders.
For handling cases, the diaries of the parties can often provide some very important evidence.
Wang Canyang nodded: "Ziqiang and I were classmates when we were in junior high school. He started keeping a diary when he was in the third year of junior high school."
"But I don't write often. I just record something occasionally, but I don't know what I wrote."
Chen Yan nodded and opened the diary.
The date on the first page is August 19, one year ago.
"Today is my first day entering Liancheng Vocational and Technical College, and it is also the beginning of a new life for me."
"I'm very happy that Wang Canyang and I have been assigned to the same dormitory. From now on, the two of us will definitely study hard and become leaders in Liancheng's hairdressing industry!"
"Come on! Chen Ziqiang, you can definitely do it!"
This diary was obviously started by Chen Ziqiang since he entered school last year.
After that, Chen Ziqiang kept a diary about trivial matters about once a week.
"The technical school is really good. No one cares about it, but the monthly money is a bit low."
"Haha, let's go to the Internet cafe for a night today!"
"It's a sunny day today. I paid some money and went out to the bar!"
"Disgusting, my goddess got into the car of idiot Wang Er... Damn, isn't it just two stinky rich people? When I get rich, I will do this..."
…
"We skipped class today. The teacher didn't care about us. We stayed at the Internet cafe all night."
"But my father had an accident at the construction site and his leg was broken by a steel bar. My sister got appendicitis. My living expenses this month will be reduced by a hundred yuan..."
"Wang Canyang's father was in a car accident, and he will be the only man in his family from now on..."
"We...are going to change..."
There is not much content in the diary, but through this diary, Chen Yan seems to have experienced the changes in Chen Ziqiang's mentality over the past year.
The ambition I had when I first started school last year was that I wanted to learn something and start all over again.
However, the study life in the technical school was unsupervised and free and unorganized. Skipping classes and clubbing became a required course for Chen Ziqiang every day.
Then today in April, Chen Ziqiang's father had his leg broken by a steel bar at a construction site and was unable to make money. Wang Canyang's father also died in a car accident in those two days.
The changes in the family made the two finally recognize the reality.
From that day on, Chen Ziqiang’s diary writing frequency became once every two weeks.
There are very few things recorded.
"I learned how to iron iron during this period, but the tuition is too expensive and my family doesn't have that much money..."
"I did the tinfoil perm by myself today. The teacher praised me. Tomorrow I can go to Amy's Barber for an internship. Haha, I'm going to make money!"
"Today is the 34th day of my barber internship at Amy. I finally did highlights on a customer by myself, and the boss gave me a 50-yuan share!"
“This is the first time in my life that I’m making money!”
"Feifei is so pretty... I wonder if she has a boyfriend..."
On June 12 this year, a girl named Feifei appeared in Chen Ziqiang's diary.
Since then, Chen Ziqiang has written diaries more frequently. He will write a diary every day or two.
"Feifei seemed to smile at me today. Does she like me too?"
"The first thing we talked about today was that I treated her to a drink of Mixue Ice City. I deliberately chose a couple's set meal. I wonder if she noticed?"
For the next month, Chen Ziqiang's diary was all about that girl Feifei.
Including what clothes she wore and what the two of them said, Chen Ziqiang would write down everything.
Until July 9, that is, two months ago, in a diary written by Chen Ziqiang, there was secret joy between the lines.
"Feifei finally agreed to go to the movies with me!"
"Haha, she must like me too, what should I do? Should I prepare a gift for her?"
"What should I prepare? I still have 180 yuan in my pocket. It costs 80 yuan to watch a movie, 100 yuan..."
The next day's diary.
"Feifei is a good girl. She bought the drinks and popcorn when we watched the movie. She said that we are all students and we don't have much money. We all have AA standards... Feifei is so good."
"Haha, I held Feifei's hand today hahaha!"
"What should I do...I should help her...I will definitely be able to help her!"
On August 6, a month before his disappearance, Chen Ziqiang wrote his last diary entry.
Help her?
Chen Yan closed the diary. It was obvious that something had happened to the girl named Feifei.
"Xiao Wang, does Chen Ziqiang have a girlfriend?"
"girlfriend?"
"No, no, the conditions at home in our dormitory are not good. It costs money to have a girlfriend. That girl will make friends with us."
Wang Canyang's smile was a bit bitter, but very realistic: "Ziqiang definitely doesn't have a girlfriend. If he has a girlfriend, I will definitely be the first to know."
No girlfriend?
Then who is Feifei in Chen Ziqiang's diary?
"By the way, I found a girl named Feifei in Chen Ziqiang's diary. Chen Ziqiang mentioned it several times. Do you know this person?"
Feifei?
Wang Canyang shook his head in confusion: "There are two girls in our class with Fei in their names. One is Sun Xiaofei and the other is Zhao Feiyan."
"But they all have boyfriends, and I don't know Ziqiang very well. They... don't have much interaction in the class."
Sun Xiaofei, Zhao Feiyan...
Chen Yan wrote down the names of the two people, and then asked: "Aimee Haircut, do you know this place?"
