chasing the dark

Chapter 137 Monitoring
Ye Zhanzhou glanced at Qiao Mingshan who was sitting in the chair: "How about this, I will ask Deputy Director Qiao for instructions, and I will reply you later."

"Deputy Qiao is right next to you, what else can I ask for instructions?" There was a pattering sound from the phone, like the sound of palms being slapped on a leather sofa.

"Okay, you go and arrange the work in the team and take people there right away. The address will be sent to you later." Qiao Mingshan picked up the receiver while talking. He was not used to the hands-free function.

Ye Zhanzhou, with his palms on the edge of the table, reluctantly stood up, muttering: "I'm so busy, I haven't eaten yet."

Holding the phone, Qiao Mingshan mouthed the word "roll".

In fact, in terms of rank, he is no lower than Zheng Bohan.But in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, I still have to say a few words of comfort to show my concern.

With a twitch of his lips, Ye Zhanzhou left the deputy director's office.

They went to the cafeteria for dinner, called Ding Xuan and Jiang Yu, and the three drove to the home of Zheng Bohan and Wei Lan.

On the way, Ding Xuan asked while driving: "Brother Ye, why did Wei Lan suddenly figure it out?"

At the meeting in the afternoon, Ye Zhanzhou said that Zheng Bohan and Wei Lan did not cooperate with the police.

With his hands behind his head, Ye Zhanzhou half-closed his eyes and said, "She said someone was following her, and she was scared."

"Stalking? Who is it?" Jiang Yu leaned forward and asked, grabbing the back of the front seat.

She clearly remembered how Wei Lan rejected them.

Ye Zhanzhou told the general process.

Of course, the part where Qiao Mingshan lost his temper was directly ignored.

Ding Xuan looked at him sideways while waiting for the signal: "Brother Ye, who do you think it is?"

"I'm not a fortune teller." He didn't know the implication.

but……

Judging from his leisurely posture, it seemed that he was very happy that someone was following Wei Lan.

According to the navigation to reach the destination, Wei Lan had already greeted the gate of the community, and the security guard let him go after a brief inquiry.

Wei Lan was already anxiously waiting at home, before she sat down in the living room, she said, "Why did you come here? Old Zheng is on a business trip again, and I'm the only one at home. What if something happens?"

"There should be no problem with the security of this community, right? I walked around downstairs just now and saw two security guards patrolling." Ye Zhanzhou lifted his trousers and sat down.

Wei Lan shook her head in disapproval: "That's just a situation. If you really meet bad guys, they must run faster than anyone else."

Ye Zhanzhou did not respond to her words belittling the security of the community, but asked, "You also have a house in the municipal committee's family courtyard, right? Why don't you live there?"

The municipal party committee's family courtyard is next to the criminal police detachment, and there are also special security personnel. In terms of security, it must be better than the residential area.

Wei Lan seemed unwilling to answer this question, she stood up and said, "Sit down first, I'll make tea."

"Don't be so troublesome." Ye Zhanzhou got up, "Director Wei, let's go to the supermarket to check the monitoring first, and they should get off work later."

The supermarket is not far away, and it takes about ten minutes to walk out of the community.

The on-duty supervisor of the security department was a young man in his 20s. When he learned that he was a criminal police officer from the other city bureau, he immediately took him to the monitoring room.

Ye Zhanzhou looked at Wei Lan: "When did you see that person?"

"Come out from the supermarket..." Wei Lan roughly recalled, "It's about [-]:[-], he's at the gate."

"In addition to the main entrance, our supermarket also has two side entrances, east and north. Which one are you talking about?" the security supervisor asked.

"The main entrance." Wei Lan added, "The one facing the main road to the south."

"Let's adjust the time to 05:30 first." The head of security put his hand on the shoulder of the young man sitting in front of the monitoring platform.

The young man in the short-sleeved security uniform was a little shy and didn't make a sound, just nodded.

The time displayed on the screen after adjustment is [-]:[-], which is the evening peak time, and there are many people entering and leaving the supermarket.

Wei Lan half-bent, with her neck stretched forward, following the changes in the picture, she suddenly stretched out her finger: "That's him! The one in the black T-shirt and the hat!"

The high-pitched voice was a bit harsh, and the security guy was so frightened that his hands trembled, and he quickly pressed down on the mouse that almost slipped out.

Following Wei Lan's fingers, everyone's targets were concentrated on the lower right corner of the screen.

There was a man there with a black T-shirt, baggy black cropped overalls, a black baseball cap, and black ultra-sunglasses. Except for the white skull pattern on his chest and the thorns on the cap, his whole body was black.

Because he was wearing a hat and sunglasses, most of his appearance was covered up. Judging from his body shape, he should be a young man.

However, this outfit is not uncommon, and many young people nowadays like this tune.

The man took out a cigarette from his pants pocket and lit it, smoking slowly.

"There is a trash can next to here." The security supervisor pointed to the edge of the screen, "Smoking is prohibited in supermarkets, and customers who want to smoke usually go here."

The implication is that it is quite normal for a smoking man to appear in this position.

He glanced at Wei Lan intentionally or unintentionally. He didn't know who this woman was, but he just felt that her startled look was a bit fussy.

"Go ahead." Ye Zhanzhou crossed his arms and reminded the security guy to continue.

The stagnant picture immediately came alive. As Wei Lan said, at 45:[-], she came out of the supermarket with her things.

The man in black took a puff of the remaining cigarette with his index finger and thumb, stretched his hand out of the screen, paused for a moment, and walked towards it.

"Look, he's following me!" Wei Lan's voice sounded again.

Her fingers flicked across the screen, as if to prove that the man was leaving in the same direction as her.

In fact, there was nothing unusual about the man's behavior. He smoked a cigarette at the entrance of the supermarket, pressed it in the trash can after he finished smoking, and then continued his journey.

Compared with some people who became addicted to cigarettes, smoked while walking, and finally threw their cigarette butts on the ground at will, he was somewhat cultivated.

"It's off-duty time, and there are people coming and going on the street. Maybe he happened to be on your way."

What Jiang Yu said was the thought of almost everyone present, except Wei Lan.

"No! He has been following me for three consecutive days!" She retorted very firmly, "Yesterday and the day before yesterday, when I got off work, he showed up at the gate of my community!"

The head of security rolled his eyes subconsciously, which was a speechless gesture.

Jiang Yu felt that what he was thinking at the moment must be: There are at least hundreds of families living in a community, so why is it so strange to meet the same person for several days in a row?

But her thoughts are not the same.

Appearing in front of Wei Lan for three consecutive days, is it a coincidence?Or artificial?

The monitoring room of the supermarket is not a place to talk, so after copying this video, the group left and followed Wei Lan back home.
