Chapter 10 Important Information

Tan Kaishan shook his head: "To say that she intentionally left it behind is somewhat illogical. Was it really necessary to leave the phone? Could she not have simply sent a message? Or even an email would suffice, wouldn't it?"

"Who called the police?" Fan Cheng asked again

Fan Cheng forced a smile and said, "He did mention it to Old Mo, and Old Mo said it pertains to a major case, and he will report it directly to the director"

Fan Cheng extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray: "I hope the technical department can make some discoveries. Additionally, I have already assigned someone to keep an eye on that kid. I must say, that kid really does not make things easy for us."

Tan Kaishan frowned: "What are you thinking?"

"Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng!" Tan Kaishan called out twice, but Feng Ziqi did not respond, seemingly lost in thought. He couldn't help but raise his voice a few notches.

Tan Kaishan handed a cigarette to Feng Ziqi and said, "Xiao Feng, what else did she say when she asked you out before?"

Shen Fei nodded: "Hmm, Director Tan and the others just returned. Feng Ziqi did not see Huang Xiaolan, he only found Huang Xiaolan's phone. Now Team Leader Ling has already arranged for people to search for Huang Xiaolan and has notified various police stations to assist in the search. It is estimated that we will have to work through the night again tonight"

Fan Cheng shook his head: "She insists she doesn't know where Zhang Yan is, but I believe she is lying. We have checked her call records and are currently investigating those phone numbers."

Shen Fei stepped forward: "Fan Da, Director Tan and Ling Li took some people out, saying they were going to Qingyun Lake. Du Hongze's wife arranged to meet with Feng Ziqi, but when Feng Ziqi arrived, Du Hongze's wife was nowhere to be found, and he only picked up her mobile phone."

Feng Ziqi was taken aback and looked towards Tan Kaishan: "Ah?"

Tan Kaishan said: "Xiao Feng mentioned that he has looked into it and found nothing related to the books. Ling Li also checked it once, but for the sake of caution, it has already been handed over to the technical department"

Lu Ping replied without hesitation: "I don't know"

Shen Fei stuck out his tongue, not daring to say anything more

Tan Kaishan glanced sideways at Fan Cheng, understanding the implication of Fan Cheng's words. If the phone was lost by Huang Xiaolan unintentionally, it would indicate that she was likely in trouble; she must have encountered some incident and lost her phone in a state of panic while waiting for Feng Ziqi. Of course, if it was left intentionally, then the phone would certainly contain some messages, suggesting that she was unable to wait for Feng Ziqi and had left first.

Director Tan, I have heard about the situation at Qingyun Lake. This Feng Ziqi is truly outrageous, completely lacking organization and discipline. He does not regard himself as a member of the task force at all! I was against letting him join the task force from the very beginning. " Fan Cheng became somewhat emotional when mentioning Feng Ziqi. Tan Kaishan smiled and said, "Old Fan, I have already criticized Xiao Feng about this matter. Sigh, you know his relationship with Xiao Gang. He is also eager to clear Xiao Gang's name as soon as possible. Some of his actions were indeed inappropriate, but they are somewhat understandable. I told him that if such incidents occur again, you, Old Fan, need not say anything; I will directly expel him from the task force." Tan Kaishan smiled again, "Old Fan, I have already criticized Xiao Feng about this matter. Sigh, you know his relationship with Xiao Gang. He is also eager to clear Xiao Gang's name as soon as possible. Some of his actions were indeed inappropriate, but they are somewhat understandable. I told him that if such incidents occur again, you, Old Fan, need not say anything; I will directly expel him from the task force."

Who knows? If I had informed us about this matter a bit earlier, such an incident would not have occurred

Hmph, then what is the matter with your promise to take Xiao Gang to see him

Fan Cheng glanced at Tan Kaishan and said, "Director Tan, why do I feel that you are just someone who muddles through things?"

Fan Cheng said: "We do not know whether this mobile phone was accidentally lost by Huang Xiaolan or left behind by www.hetushu.com."

Shen Fei was somewhat puzzled: "The case of Xiao Gang should be handled specifically by the special investigation team. Even if it truly involves some major case, the special investigation team should be informed."

Lu Ping pointed at the cigarette in front of Fan Cheng and said, "Please give me one."

Lu Ping bit her lip and said, "I really don't know, officer, I have already said what I needed to say, I am not a criminal, you have no right to restrict my personal freedom"

Fan Cheng looked around and saw that there was no one present. He asked softly, "I heard that Feng Ziqi went to see Huang Xiaolan, and that Huang Xiaolan is missing?"

Fan Cheng glared at him and said, "The work of the anti-drug team has its own particularities. Since Old Mo mentioned that he would report to the director, there will certainly be specific arrangements from the bureau on how to proceed. Shen Fei, just focus on doing your own part well."

Shen Fei said: "Fan Da, did Xiao Gang not say anything at all?"

Tan Kaishan smiled, and Fan Cheng smiled along with him

However, soon Fan Cheng's expression turned serious again: "Could there be some secrets hidden in the phone left by Huang Xiaolan?"

Please allow me to clarify, we are not restricting your personal freedom; we are merely asking for your cooperation in assisting with the investigation of the case. Every citizen has the obligation to cooperate with the public security authorities in their investigations, and I believe you would not refuse to cooperate, would you

Feng Ziqi returned to the bureau, although he did not actually want to come back. The words kept floating in his mind: The item is located at Unit 3, Building 6, Hongqi New Village 202. Xiao Gang did not commit murder. Delete after reading.

"Mobile phone?" Fan Cheng's eyes lit up, and then he leaned closer to Shen Fei's ear: "Keep an eye on the technology side and see if they have made any discoveries. Didn't you say you have a buddy over there? If there are any findings, notify me immediately."

"Think carefully again about where Zhang Yan really is. Don't rush to answer; speak only after you have thought it through clearly." Fan Cheng stood up and walked out.

Tan Kaishan nodded slightly

Important things. Tan Kaishan frowned and squinted his eyes: She wouldn't be referring to that mobile phone as the important thing, would she? Could it be that she came and, not having waited for you due to some urgent matter, left her phone here?

Fan Cheng tapped the table, his gaze piercingly directed at Lu Ping: "Do you really not know where Zhang Yan is?"

Fan Cheng nodded after listening, and Tan Kaishan made a very valid point

Feng Ziqi shook his head: "No, he just said he wanted to meet me, as he has something important to hand over to me"

Feng Ziqi smiled wryly: "I am wondering where Huang Xiaolan has gone, whether she left on her own or if something happened."

Fan Cheng, however, stated: "Director Tan, do not forget that there is no connection between Huang Xiaolan and Feng Ziqi. She cannot have any means of contact with Feng Ziqi other than by phone. If Huang Xiaolan felt that calling or texting Feng Ziqi was unsafe and decided to meet him instead, then in the absence of a response from Feng Ziqi, it is very likely that she would have edited the matters she wanted to discuss on her phone and left it behind. Huang Xiaolan is a meticulous person, as can be seen from the location she chose for the meeting. Qingyun Lake Park is not far from Feng Ziqi's home; it would take less than ten minutes by car, but she did not account for the possibility of traffic. Moreover, the location of Qingyun Lake Park is relatively secluded, and there are almost no people there at night, making it an extremely discreet place to meet."

What exactly is that thing? Can it prove that Xiao Gang is innocent? He is somewhat anxious and has been waiting for the document, perhaps obtaining that item could clear Xiao Gang's name. In fact, he really wants to inform Tan Kaishan about this matter, but Huang Xiaolan's instruction to delete it after reading suggests she has her own intentions. He does not know what case Xiao Gang has been handling recently, but today when Ling Li and Fan Cheng interrogated Xiao Gang, they also asked about this issue, yet Xiao Gang did not respond, insisting that he must see Director Mo. His caution and Huang Xiaolan's reminder to delete after reading made Feng Ziqi realize that they seemed to be on guard against something.

Fan Cheng said coldly: "You claim that you have no idea where Zhang Yan is, and that you brought him to Maojian Town is certainly a lie. Aren't you afraid that once he finds out you deceived him, he will kill you just the same?"

Tan Kaishan closed the office door, sat down on the chair, took out his phone, and made a call. It was not long before Fan Cheng arrived.

Tan Kaishan fell into deep thought. Fan Cheng's words were quite reasonable. If it were truly as Fan Cheng suggested, then Feng Ziqi, as the first person to come into contact with the mobile phone, should have long ago seen the message left by Huang Xiaolan. However, he claimed that there was no discovery in that mobile phone. Could it be that he is lying

Tan Kaishan squinted his eyes and said, "I suggest we release her"

Lu Ping was taken aback; she truly did not know how to respond to Fan Cheng's question.

"Old Fan, please take a seat." Tan Kaishan stood up, poured him a cup of tea, and handed him a cigarette.

"You really don't know? Lu Ping, do you really think we police are fools? It was Zhang Yan who reported it, right?" Fan Cheng leaned back slightly, picked up a cigarette from the table, and lit it.

Lu Ping said with great grievance: "He has a gun in his hand. If I don't do it that way, he will definitely shoot and kill me. Hasn't he already killed someone?"

Shen He did not understand how his superior thought, but since Fan Cheng had already given the order, he would certainly comply, as he held great admiration for his superior.

Fan Cheng said, "Alright, I will inform Old Ling about this matter. He is short on personnel over there, so I will send someone to follow up on Lu Ping's side."

Fan Cheng took out a cigarette and walked in front of Lu Ping, lighting it for her

Lu Ping had an innocent look on her face: "Officer, you have already asked countless times, I truly do not know. Yes, I am Zhang Yan's girlfriend, but I have never inquired about his matters, and he does not allow me to ask. He has not been in contact with me for quite some time."

Feng Ziqi silently lamented that it seemed impossible for him to leave anytime soon

"How is it? Is that Lu Ping still not saying anything?" Tan Kaishan leaned back slightly and exhaled a round smoke ring

Feng Ziqi did not expect Tan Kaishan to think this way either. He smiled wryly and said, "I am not sure about this. I arrived and did not see anyone. When I heard her phone ringing, I immediately reported this matter to you, Director Tan."

"Let her go?" Fan Cheng was momentarily taken aback, and Tan Kaishan replied, "Yes, let her go. There is currently no evidence linking her to the Xiao Gang case. At most, we could detain her for 48 hours, but it would be better to release her and see what she does next."

Oh? Du Hongze's wife, Huang Xiaolan, and Xiao Gang were once lovers. It is likely that she sought out Feng Ziqi for matters related to Xiao Gang.

Tan Kaishan walked towards his office. After taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "You stay in your office. If she contacts you again, you know what to do, right?"

Lu Ping took a puff and exhaled a cloud of smoke, looking somewhat indulgent
