Chapter 1405 - 1454 Suspect
The pause was caused by the woman named Wang Chunmei, so she is the most likely suspect. Lin Qiong immediately arranged personnel to search for Wang Chunmei.
Wang Chunmei’s home address was quickly found. After the divorce, the house belonged to Wang Chunmei, so she has been living here. Because she was rotating shifts, her whereabouts after the night shift were unknown. The police arranged by Lin Qiong went to Wang Chunmei’s house, rang the doorbell for a long time, but no sound came from inside. The police tried calling Wang Chunmei’s mobile phone, only to hear the message that it was switched off.
After reporting the findings to Lin Qiong, Lin Qiong immediately issued an order to forcibly enter Wang Chunmei’s house. After breaking in, the police still couldn’t find Wang Chunmei. The house was tidy, and the bed was very clean. After careful inspection, the officers concluded.
Li Yifei took the phone and asked, "You mean Wang Chunmei might not have come back home these past few days?"
The officer replied, "Yes, that’s the preliminary judgment. One window in the house was left open. Wang family lives on the side facing the street, where traffic is heavy. The tenth floor is in the dust stratum. At this level, if the window is open for one or two days, some dust will gather. Wang Chunmei’s colleagues all say she is a very tidy person. She often says she does house chores like cleaning the floors after returning from work and takes it as a fun activity, joking it’s like exercising. But after we entered, we found a layer of dust on the bedroom floor where the window was open, and walking over it left footprints. Apart from our dusty footprints, there were no other footprints, let alone a woman’s. So we conclude Wang Chunmei might not have been here these past few days."
Missing? Li Yifei furrowed his brow and asked, "How many houses does she have?"
"Just this one, given to her after the divorce by her ex-husband."
"Trace and hold onto this lead, keep investigating."
"Got it, we will pursue this lead. Wang Chunmei’s colleagues also provided some clues, we will expand the search area."
Mile City has invested a lot of police power. Song Zhentao also used his influence, opened many green lights in the provincial city for Lin Qiong and Song Ranmin, even went to record it at the provincial head office, highlighting the importance of the matter. As the provincial head, naturally outside the influence of the Sunx and Song families or any family within the province, he only said the person must be found, but not to cause a huge stir, setting a scope for the case.
That was quite remarkable, considering there were objections within the province. Whoever opposed, Li Yifei didn’t care about him. Right now, all he wanted was to find Meng Xiaofei as soon as possible.
