Chapter 46: Humbert XIII

"Impossible, impossible!"
It is now past midnight, and the head of the administration of the Youth Palace was obviously forced out of his sleep, a pair of sleepy eyes swelled to the brow bone, the shirt button and donkey lips were not the same as the horse's mouth, and a pair of slippers were pulled under the feet: "How many children come in and out here all day long? Security is the strictest, and even parents have to register to go in and monitor 360 degrees without dead ends. You say there are traffickers here, what's a joke? I use my head to guarantee, Absolutely impossible! Unless the child walks on his own legs, or else the aliens invade the earth and can't enter our school! "
"Deputy Tao, we just turned on remotely through the tracking software on Zhang Yuchen's mobile phone. We have found the approximate location, near Baitao Lane!"
"Bai Tao Lane," Tao Ran stunned, "how come to Bai Tao Lane?"
Baitao Lane is about three stops away from the Children's Palace here. It is a well-known small commodity distribution center in the city. Many online stores are open here, and they are often open overnight. There are wholesale clothes and small accessories sold by the catty. The wholesalers of large bags and small bags are scrambling everywhere, and if they are not careful, they will catch the way of pickpockets and crooks, which will be lively and chaotic.
For the children who sneak out to play, Bai Tao Lane is too chaotic and there is nothing fun, and for the perverted child abduction, Bai Tao Lane is too crowded and the risk is too high.
Tao Ran squeezed his bridge of his nose: "Slowly, let me think ..."
His voice hadn't ended yet, and Chen Chen's mother had dialed two criminal police officers and rushed over: "Sergeant Tao, I heard. Did you locate Chen Chen's mobile phone? Where is she?"
Lang Qiao, who arrived temporarily in the middle of the night, hurried over and stopped her to whisper.
"I told her clearly. I was talking to her every day. I went out to pay attention to safety, do n’t go with strangers, do n’t go to unfamiliar places, and I have to send messages to adults at any time. I said I have to feel annoyed, if this mouth is iron, it has been worn away ... "
Chang Ning wiped her tears with one hand, and held her with her hand: "Sister, don't do this."
When Tao Ran saw Chang Ning wipe his tears, the three-point anxiety rose to ten: "Little Qiaoer, you stay here to investigate the surveillance video. You guys follow me and go to Baitao Lane."
The police car passed meteor-likely through the night. The four wheels almost left the ground. The three stops had already arrived in five or six minutes. The season was about to change. The earliest batch of autumn clothes was about to be put on the shelves. The shoulder-to-shoulder businessperson created a local urban heat island by breathing.
People shuttled between them. Within three or two minutes, they were sweating.
Tao Ran looked around blankly and asked the technicians: "Can you narrow it down a bit?"
"Near the west exit of Baitao Lane," the technician's voice sounded in his headset. "The other party hasn't found that the phone is on yet, Mr. Tao, you need to do it as soon as possible."
Tao Ran gave a few winks to his subordinates, and several of them immediately acted tacitly, approaching the west side of Baitao Lane from several directions, Tao Ran stepped out of his legs and ran out, glanced at everyone who passed him by. . Garbage trucks, small trucks, one-person bags ... all the places where people may be hidden, one by one, searched in the past, although no one sounded the siren, but this quickly searched down, in Baitao Lane The atmosphere was suddenly tense.
Suddenly, a technician's warning came from Tao Ran's headset: "Mr. Tao, the other party noticed something abnormal and shut down!"
Tao Ran's tight eyes swept subconsciously towards the surroundings, and he fell right next to a large trash can. A thin man looked up inadvertently, and the two just looked at each other. The man paused for a second, then saw Tao Ran clearly. Uniform, threw down something in his hand, and ran away.
What he threw away was a white cell phone with a mess of small stickers on the back.
Tao Ran's pupils shrank, "Stop!"
On the face of a wholesaler who just pushed a small truck, the man was familiar with the light truck, and the monkey stepped on the side of the truck like a monkey. In the exclamation of the woman on the trolley, the clothes on the trolley fell off like a landslide. A hard-moving "E-Donkey" hurriedly braked to avoid what was rolled under the wheel, and yelled.
In the chaos, the man had already stepped over the fence on the side of the street, his body turned over, and he saw that he was about to cross the road, and a small policeman slammed out of a small intersection to catch a chick. Holding his back around his neck, twisting his back, he pressed the person to the ground, Tao Ran turned around, picked up the white mobile phone that was left aside, and restarted. The desktop was Chenchen's cat face selfie.
With a long breath, he strode to the man who was already under control: "What about people?"
The man stabbed his nose when he was thrown, and looked up colorfully. He exclaimed in a crying cry to Tao Ran: "I, I, I, and I are wrong. Done ... oh ... hiss ... you, you tap ... "
Tao Ran grabbed his collar: "What about the girl?"
"what?"
At this point, Luo Wenzhou had driven to the gate of the Children's Palace.
Lang Qiao saw the familiar license plate at a glance, and rushed over in three steps: "Boss!"
"What's the situation, Tao Ran?" Luo Wenzhou said, waving his hand back in the car, "you sit in the car first."
The man in the car didn't listen to his suit and walked down with one arm.
Lang Qiao couldn't help but hesitated: "Yo, Fei, how come you ... 're you wearing your armor?"
"Small accident," Fei Du glanced up at the building near the Children's Palace, "Is there any news?"
Before Lang Qiao had time to answer, a squawking police car stopped suddenly at the gate of the Children's Palace, and Tao Ran and several criminal police officers dumbed the car.
Seeing Luo Wenzhou's questioning eyes, Tao Ran shook his head: "Chen Chen's mobile phone was stolen, old churros, recidivist, just released from the detention center, he said that there was a girl tying shoelaces on the roadside, and the mobile phone was placed beside On the stone flowerbed, she left after tying her shoelaces, and forgot her cellphone there, so he just 'picked' it. "
Luo Wenzhou: "Which street? When did you steal it?"
"Should be near the Children's Palace ..." Tao Ran yanked his hair, his brows tied together, "The boy found seven or eight mobile phones ready to be sold, all of which are the performance of today, the specific time He couldn't say the location himself. "
"Brother," Fei Du asked, "What are you panicking about?"
"I asked Chang Ning, Chen Chen wore a floral skirt today." Tao Ran's face was ugly, and his voice was fast and anxious. "If it is ... the murderer kidnapped two children continuously for five days, this frequency is too high. It ’s high, indicating that Qu Tong has been 100% ... Chen Chen was abducted around five o'clock in the morning, and it has now been more than seven hours. It is likely that ...
"Shh-" Fei Pat patted his arm, "you calm down."
"What's wrong with me?" Tao Ran smiled bitterly. "I'm not the child's parent-I haven't dared to mention it to Chen Chen's family until now ... the suspicious character you told me last time is an old man, right? sure?"
"I'm not sure, it's too far away," Fei Du said. "Chenchen is a sensitive girl. I warned her when I warned her last time. She shouldn't have forgotten so soon, including the elderly and acquaintances. Inside, I believe she will not be unguarded. Even if someone lied to her, she would not forget to send a message to her family. "
"Vice Tao, the child was found in the studio monitor!"
Tao Ran turned abruptly, and just about to lift his leg, Luo Wenzhou held his shoulders: "Leave it to me, and you are responsible for talking with the little girl's parents to see if the child has anything unusual recently, whether the parents have offended anyone, their families How is the relationship-we cannot miss any possibility. "
Fei Duo leaned aside: "May I help you?"
Luo Wenzhou hesitated: "What are you doing?"
Fei Du replied shamelessly: "I count relatives and friends."
Luo Wenzhou stretched out a finger and nodded him slightly with a warning, but still didn't say to let him cool down.
The monitoring of the studio was very clear. At about half past four, other children were picked up by the parents one after another. In the morning, one sitting in the classroom alone, looking at the album left by the teacher one by one, looking out the window from time to time. In ten minutes, she stared at the window for more than five minutes.
Luo Wenzhou wondered, "What is she looking at?"
Lang Qiao: "Mirror."
Luo Wenzhou looked inexplicable.
"The little girl uses the glass window as a mirror. She only needs to turn her head to see the scenery. She doesn't have to twist her head to get close. She also curls her hair with a ballpoint pen," Lang Qiao said. "The girls understand ... ? "
When her voice faded, she saw Chen Chen sitting upright suddenly, and the whole person slightly left the chair, and suddenly smiled, stood up and quickly packed up and ran-the record in the corner showed that the time was about 4:40.
Luo Wenzhou immediately raised his eyes to see where the studio was, the window was facing the playground.
The monitoring on the building closest to the playground was quickly adjusted. You can see that Chenchen quickly ran out of the teaching building and walked towards a group of children gathered on the playground. The camera was a little far away, only she was photographed there The group of children stayed in the heap for a while, then walked with some of the girls to monitor the dead end, and quickly left the scope of the camera.
According to the scene judgment, they should go in a row of red buildings in the northwest corner of the Children's Palace.
"What's the matter?" Luo Wenzhou asked with a frown. "Isn't the person in charge saying there are no dead ends in the park?"
"The row of red houses in the northwest corner are public toilets, without cameras."
"The didn't say it earlier! Determine the identities of the children on the surveillance video, and immediately ask them-bring the map."
A small park is connected to the northwest corner of the Children's Palace, and the management is very sparse. The lawn on the outer circle has been trampled by residents who walked. Footprints complement the shit. No one goes in the depths. The vegetation grows like a mosquito bomber. , Flashlight and dog barking one after another.
Fei Du thoughtfully listened to the conversation between Tao Ran and Chen Chen's father.
"I arrived at about five-fifths, and told her ... I called at the door, heard the shutdown, and thought it was out of power, so I checked in with the doorman-but there was no one in the classroom. At that time, I did n’t expect that she could lose it. This is the Children ’s Palace, which is no different from school. I thought she was going to the toilet or where to play ... I kind of angrily waited in their studio for a while, until the security guard had already I started to check the doors and windows to turn off the lights one by one. I was a little panicked. I was asking around and asking the female teacher to help me find someone in the bathroom ... "
Chen Chen's mother clutched his shoulders with tears in her face: "Is she the kind of child? Knowing that an adult is waiting for her, she ran out without saying a word ... Ah? Do you have such a father?" If something is wrong, think of blameing my daughter first. If something happens to the child, I ... "
Chen Chen's father was pulled by a puppet, she closed her mouth and said nothing, Tao Ran and Chang Ning quickly separated them from each other.
Fei Du suddenly asked: "It is said that the child tracking system on the mobile phone can be turned on and off remotely. Just now the police officers should also locate Chen Chen's mobile phone. Why didn't you remember to turn on her mobile phone?"
"I thought about it," Chenchen's dad showed an expression that was about to collapse, desperately held back, and kept gasping with extreme depression. "But I didn't know what was wrong with the software at that time, and kept telling me that the remote service connection failed ... ... I'm not used to this ... "
"Chenchen's cell phone was retrieved," Tao Ran said. "At least half of the electricity is still there. It should have been stolen by a pickpocket when you first called. Is it possible that the child found that the cellphone was lost and went out on their own? Find?"
"The risk of burglary in the Children's Palace is too great," Fei shook his head. "It is not very likely. It should be that she left the park for some reason, and it took more than half an hour from the class to the time agreed with you." She buys snacks and plays with her classmates in the surrounding shops, but it is usually not within a kilometer of the surrounding area, so that as soon as you receive your call, she can immediately return to the door of the Children's Palace-home tutoring What if she stole something outside? "
"Teached it," Chang Ning glanced at Tao Ran, and said softly, "I was joking with her a few days ago, and said that I can find Brother Tao Ran if I encounter anything in the future. She knows how to call the police, and she doesn't know how to go back to school to find security. . "
Tao Ran patted the back of her hand, passed a comforting look, and whispered, "There is a downtown area around the Children's Palace. It was the rush hour at work. It should be safer, except in the northwest corner of the small park ..."
"No," Chang Ning sought to comfort him by grabbing his wrist. "Chen Chen was so guilty that she didn't dare to sleep alone after reading the suspense story. She couldn't run to nobody's place by herself!"
Fei Du suddenly said, "If not for yourself, is it with classmates?"
Several people stared at him dumbfounded.
Fei Du walked in front of Chenchen's father: "When was the first time you tried to open her mobile phone remotely, what time was it?"
"Six o'clock ... more than six o'clock," Dad Chenchen said, "her teacher reminded me."
Fei Du: "How did you do that at the time? Can you show me?"
"Boss, the teacher over there contacted the children in the monitor just now!" Lang Qiao pushed away a cluster of branches in front of him and quickly caught up with Luo Wenzhou. "They went to the bathroom to change clothes, and then they went together again. Ran to the small park to take pictures. "
"Take a photo?"
"There was a child in the photography class who had to hand in homework. I had a few girls as models, and a few of them brought clothes for taking pictures. After a while, after taking the pictures, Zhang Yuchen was going back to the Children's Palace, and they were right in front of the park. No one knows where Zhang Yuchen went later. "
Luo Wenzhou took a deep breath—it was broken.
If Chen Chen finds out that her mobile phone is gone after being separated from her friends, and the child's first reaction is that she has fallen into a place where she took pictures, she will return to the inaccessible small park-but that small park is not the street, what happened after that, I'm afraid it will be difficult to track down.
Lang Qiao: "Boss, what should I do?"
Luo Wenzhou groaned for a moment, took out his mobile phone and called the person responsible for tracking Xu Wenchao.
"Report on Xu Wenchao's movements today."
"Xu Wenchao copied the driving recorder to Deputy Tao. He left our office at 5:40. He drove to a fast food restaurant for twenty minutes and packed it home. He never moved."
Luo Wenzhou whispered, "Are you sure he has been home?"
"Okay, he didn't pull the curtains. People have been in the study and haven't left our field of vision-what's wrong, boss?"
"Boss, either we suspect the wrong person," Lang Qiao said, "or this case has nothing to do with the disappearance of Qu Tong-I'm weird, why are there so many perverts in the world?"
Before Luo Wenzhou had time to talk, the phone rang, and the caller ID was "troublesome."
"how?"
Mr. "Fai Shier" said there without hesitation: "The thief didn't steal the phone from Chen Chen. He reasoned so eloquently. The girl who took the phone really did 'forget' it there. "
Luo Wenzhou immediately asked: "How do you know?"
"Mr. Zhang tried to turn on the child's cell phone remotely at about six o'clock, but that remote operation failed. I think his operation was okay. In this case, either one of the two of them had no signal at the time, or the child's cell phone battery It was cut out. "Fei Du gave a slight meal." The thief doesn't have to pull out the battery and put it on, and he may not know what software is on the phone. All I can think of is one possibility-in the group of children. Someone used her morning to change clothes or pose, hid her cell phone, and after she found out in the morning, she suggested that she go back to the small park and volunteer to accompany her. "
She will naturally trust her friends and tell them that they have a remote system on their phone.
"You mean a child-most likely a girl who planned this." Luo Wenzhou breathed a sigh of relief. "Not only does he kidnap a friend, but also deliberately throws out the victim's phone to confuse the audience? This is too ... ... "
Fei Du laughed softly, unclearly.
Luo Wenzhou remembered the gloomy and cold-eyed teenager and swallowed the words behind him.
"Why are you thinking in this direction?"
"Because I warned her to be careful of adults, familiar, unfamiliar, men and women, and even the elderly," Fei Du said, "the only thing not to say is the same children as her."
Why can't it be a child?
The little girls in their early tens are as beautiful and delicate as they are, and they are ignorant and fragile. The whole world regards them as potential victims, as if they lack the soul and wisdom, and they are too late to take care of them.
Luo Wenzhou hung Fei Du's phone and turned to Lang Qiao: "When the teacher of the Children's Palace just called, were there any calls that were not answered by the parents at first?"
When Lang Qiao went to grab the knife murderer with his bare hands, he never showed such a horrible look: "Okay ... there seems to be one ..."
