chasing the dark

Chapter 86 Contradictions
Fang Kun's neighbor upstairs, Lao Qi, said that the woman he was with was tall and pretty, which was exactly what Director Guo said.

"Did he ever say what his girlfriend does?" Ye Zhanzhou asked.

"No." Director Guo shook his head, "I didn't chat a few words that day, Fang Kun was going to meet a client, so I just said it casually."

Ye Zhanzhou: "Is Zhang Shiwei in Mingyang now? Give me his contact information."

"He's here." Director Guo said while calling out a number from the phone's address book.

"You all came from the head office, why don't you live together?" Ye Zhanzhou wrote the number in his notebook.

"When we first arrived in Mingyang, we rented a private house to live and work together. After the business stabilized, we moved here. Fang Kun felt that the transportation was inconvenient, so he rented a house by himself."

After Director Guo finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Deputy Captain Ye, what do you think can happen to Fang Kun?"

"What do you think?" Ye Zhanzhou asked back.

"How do I know that?" Director Guo frowned slightly, "However, I don't think it's a big deal. Maybe the phone is lost or broken, and I haven't had time to buy a new one."

Ye Zhanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why do you think so?"

"Look," Director Guo reopened the WeChat dialog between him and Fang Kun. "According to the plan, he will not only go to the city this time, but also the surrounding villages and towns. It's not convenient to buy a mobile phone in a small place."

"How can he contact customers without a mobile phone?" Ding Xuan asked.

"I didn't think too much about it." Director Guo put away his phone, "I just think that Fang Kun is such a shrewd person who has traveled all over the world for so many years, so it is unlikely that anything will happen."

"One more question," Ye Zhanzhou changed the subject, "Does Fang Kun have any friends in Mingyang?"

"Not when I first came here, but now I don't know." Director Guo curled his mouth downwards and shook his head, "He visits clients every day, and he might become friends with whomever he falls in love with."

"Do you have a list of his clients here?" Ye Zhanzhou asked.

Director Guo showed a slightly embarrassed smile: "That is someone else's resource, how could I have it."

"The signed form should have the name of the unit and the contact person, right?" Ye Zhanzhou closed the notebook in his hand.

"How could I have forgotten this!" Director Guo patted his leg, "I'll check. However, we have to make it clear in advance that we cannot give you the order, after all, it is considered a commercial secret."

"We are not interested in those. You just need to make a list of the unit name and the individual's name and contact information."

"Wait a minute, I'll check."

Leaving Jiamao Building with a list, Ye Zhanzhou called Zhang Shiwei and made an appointment to meet at his home at 01:30 in the afternoon.

"Brother Ye, why do I feel Director Guo doesn't care about Fang Kun's disappearance." Ding Xuan said while driving.

Ye Zhanzhou flipped through the list of clients and said, "Except for work, I don't usually keep in touch with you. How good do you think their relationship will be?"

After a pause, he added: "I think they not only have a bad relationship, but they may also have conflicts."

"Then tell me, does Director Guo have anything to do with this matter?" Ding Xuan asked.

"It's hard to say." Put the list back into the bag, "Judging from his expression, he didn't know that Fang Kun was missing. If it was a fake, then we may have encountered a master of disguise."

"Brother, the blue nectar from their company is delicious, why haven't you tried it?" Ding Xuan suddenly remembered the bottle of blue drink.

Ye Zhanzhou squinted his eyes slightly and leaned back: "When I saw that thing, I thought of the Smurfs, so I couldn't say anything."

"Your imagination is really..." Halfway through speaking, Ding Xuan thought of something, and couldn't help but feel suffocated, "Brother, you are talking about that Smurf, right?"

"Among Fang Kun's customers are people from entertainment places such as bars and KTVs. It is estimated that Lan Ganlu should sell well in these places." Ye Zhanzhou acquiesced to his words.

"I looked at the packaging. There are food production licenses and product standard codes." Ding Xuan said.

Ye Zhanzhou smiled: "You think too much, if it is really a three-no product, Director Guo will not be able to show it."

Ding Xuan wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead: "Let me tell you this, why do I feel a little dizzy?"

What the Smurfs are and how harmful they are, of course he knows, last year when he worked with the anti-drug and special police, Xiao Yi gave them a popular science.

He didn't think so much when he drank it, but now that Ye Zhanzhou said it, Ding Xuan felt that he was not well.

……

At 01:30 in the afternoon, the two arrived at Zhang Shiwei's house on time.

"My roommate is not at home, so it is convenient for us to talk. He is a senior student, and he will take the postgraduate entrance examination next year, so he will go to a cram school." Zhang Shiwei said as he asked people into the room.

Sitting down on the sofa in the living room, Ding Xuan looked at the house and asked, "Why didn't you share the rent with Fang Kun and Director Guo?"

In a two-bedroom house, although each person has one bedroom, the living room, kitchen, and bathroom are shared.If it's someone you don't know well, it will always feel awkward.

Zhang Shiwei poured water for the two of them, and sat on the single sofa beside him: "When I first came to Mingyang, I lived together, but later I felt it was inconvenient, so I lived separately."

"It's not convenient to live with my fellow countrymen and colleagues, but it's convenient to live with strangers?" Ye Zhanzhou directly found out the loophole in his words.

Zhang Shiwei twitched the corner of his mouth: "Actually, I don't care. If we don't come out, we should rent together. It's the two of them...how should I put it..."

Ye Zhanzhou and Ding Xuan didn't rush, they just looked at him and waited.

It doesn't feel good to be stared at, Zhang Shiwei rubbed his hands awkwardly: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Our company is a private enterprise, and we have done a good job in recent years, but we still can't break away from the family management model." Director Guo was appointed by the superiors, and Fang Kun has a strong performance ability, and neither of these two people accepts the other."

"When I first came to Mingyang, it was okay. Fang Kun didn't have any objection to what Director Guo said. Later, it was not the case. Regarding Director Guo's request, Fang Kun didn't say anything on the surface. It depends on him whether he cooperates or not. I was in a bad mood. Later, the two had a quarrel because of their performance, and when the house over there was due to expire, Director Guo wanted to rent an office, saying that it seemed normal, so we simply found a place to live."

"What happened to your performance?" Ding Xuan asked.

"Fang Kun's customer, Director Guo followed up, and the order is considered to be shared by the two. Fang Kun disagreed, he said that he was running the whole process, and Director Guo signed a contract with someone in the end, and the two cannot share it equally. " Zhang Shiwei spread his hands, "Just because of such a matter, the two of them were arguing red-faced. It's better to live separately, so that I won't be caught in the middle."
