I am a super cop

Chapter 1777 Old House [2 in 1 Chapter]

Chapter 1777 The Old House 【Two Chapters in One】

In the meditation room, the air instantly became quiet.

Seeing that Master Wu didn't respond for a long time, Gu Chen waited for a while and continued to remind: "Master Wu, are you listening to me?"

"Gu benefactor, I'm really sorry, I'm just a monk, I have a lot to do every day, and I won't pay too much attention to the world of outsiders."

"Many people who come to the Beiling Monastery have secrets in their hearts. They don't dare to confide their hearts to outsiders on weekdays, so they will tell the poor monks. I only answer their doubts and give them directions."

"As for where they are going after leaving the monastery? This is not something poor monks need to understand."

"But Sun Yunmei may be in danger." Gu Chen also continued to remind.

Master Wu frowned, looked up at Gu Chen under the dim light in the room and said, "Benefactor Gu, I really can't answer your question, why don't you ask some other questions?"

It feels like Master Wu really doesn't know Sun Yunmei's whereabouts, and Gu Chen can't make things difficult for him anymore.

But thinking that Sun Yunmei and Master Wu were old friends, Gu Chen continued to ask him: "I heard that Master Wu was in business before?"

"Yes." Master Wu nodded silently, and took the initiative to admit: "I was doing foreign trade business back then, but later on the international market was not easy to do, and I lost all the money I earned in the early years, so I wanted to open it, so I decided to do it. Escaping into Buddhism, now it is quiet."

"So that's the case?" Gu Chen nodded silently, and said, "Then you and Sun Yunmei should have known each other before, right?"

"Well, that's right, we did know each other before I escaped into Buddhism." Seeing that Gu Chen seemed to know his past very well, Master Wu didn't intend to hide it.

This made Gu Chen very satisfied, and felt that Master Wu was quite cooperative.

Although he is the master of the Beiling Temple, Keren is indeed amiable and very easy to communicate with.

Therefore, Gu Chen also let go of his burden and began to ask some in-depth questions.

"Master Wu, do you know Sun Yunmei well? I heard that every time Sun Yunmei comes to Beiling, she will talk to you."

"Plus you two are old friends, you two should have a lot of questions to talk about, right?"

"Uh……"

Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Master Wu was silent for a few seconds before slowly saying:
"That's right, because we are old friends, every time Sun Yunmei comes to Beiling, she will indeed come to the temple to talk to me."

"She is a miserable woman. Her husband and son have disappeared one after another. For many years, she has lived alone. For her, this blow is enough to destroy everything she has."

With a faint sigh, Master Wu was also thoughtful: "I remember that her son disappeared near Beiling many years ago, so she often comes to Beiling to pay homage to her missing son."

"Sometimes, she chooses to stay here for a while."

"And during this time, she usually comes to talk to me."

"What are you talking about specifically?" Gu Chen asked.

"Uh, it's just some principles of Zen. I will let him read scriptures and copy scriptures to divert her sadness."

"I remember that every time she came here, she was in a very low mood, but after a few days of practice in our Beiling Monastery, her mood seemed to return to normal."

"What about the last time? I remember the last time she came to Beiling Monastery, it should be years ago, right?" Gu Chen asked.

Master Wu nodded silently: "That's right."

"Then how many days did she stay in Beiling Monastery?" Gu Chen asked.

Master Wu stretched out three fingers: "She stayed for three days that time."

"Just three days?" Gu Chen frowned, and quickly asked again: "But as far as I know, every time Sun Yunmei comes to Beiling, she usually stays for about a week, usually four or five days."

"But this time I will only stay for three days, it seems that the time is very short. Is she going to do something important?"

Faced with Gu Chen's continuous inquiries, Master Wu was obviously not used to this kind of communication rhythm.

In the Beiling Monastery, Master Wu is good at spiritual guidance and communication.

And this kind of communication is more about complaining to the other party, and then Master Wu gives certain guidance based on the actual situation of the other party.

However, when Gu Chen communicated with Master Wu, he followed the rhythm of handling cases, one question after another.

This kind of fast pace of question and answer made Master Wu unable to grasp the initiative of communication, and seemed a little embarrassed for a while.

However, due to Gu Chen's identity as a police officer, Master Wu could only try to calm down, and continued to reply:

"As for Sun Yunmei's benefactor, why only stay for three days, I don't know how to explain it?"

"Because last time, Sun Yunmei told me that she encountered some difficulties related to her old villa and her son's room."

"Her son's room?" When Gu Chen heard this, he had obviously discovered something.

One must know that it had been several years since Sun Yunmei sold the old villa to Zhao Ke.

During this period, Zhao Ke never discovered the secret room he sealed up.

So it's been all right.

But now, Zhao Ke discovered the secret room because of the decoration of the villa, and Sun Yunmei soon found out the news.

It can be seen that Sun Haifang must have notified Sun Yunmei by phone or text message.

Or when Sun Yunmei returned to Sun Haifang's house, Sun Haifang told her about it by the way.

In this way, Sun Yunmei knew about the discovery of the secret room, which seemed to make sense.

Master Wu nodded silently, and took the initiative to respond: "Sun Yunmei's benefactor is indeed telling me about her son's room."

"She told me that she was guilty and that it was her selfishness that allowed the room that was supposed to disappear to remain there for many years."

"She said that she knew that the secret room she had sealed up would be discovered sooner or later."

"However, she hopes to keep the original appearance of this room for one more day, but this matter can no longer be concealed. She told me that the room was still discovered."

"So? What did she tell you?" Gu Chen asked.

Master Wu sighed, and said helplessly: "I told her, it's time to let go of those psychological burdens in the past. After all, no one lives in that room, and her son will never appear again."

"It's better to choose to let go of these empty things than to always regard them as an important part of life."

"Is that so?" It felt like what Master Wu said was right, he was indeed enlightening Sun Yunmei to give up those useless persistence in the past.

After all, the reality is that Sun Yunmei's son can basically be declared dead.

It has been missing for so many years and has not been found, and it is even more impossible to find it now.

Moreover, Sun Yunmei often came to Beiling to pay homage to her son. It can be seen that she basically accepted the fact that her son was dead.

Thinking of Sun Yunmei's early years, when her overseas Chinese husband had no news, and then lost news of her son, this kind of shock may not be bearable by ordinary people.

Even if her overseas Chinese husband left her an old villa, living in an empty villa, wouldn't it be a kind of suffering?

Gu Chen blindly guessed that Sun Yunmei was an old lady with a hollow heart, at least she had too many things hidden in her heart, such a person was destined not to be happy.

Talking to Master Wu is undoubtedly the best relief.

"Reading scriptures, copying scriptures, um, it's indeed a good way to divert attention." Gu Chen nodded slightly, acquiescing to these methods, which indeed enlightened Sun Yunmei's heart.

So Gu Chen asked Master Wu again: "Does Master Wu know? How did Sun Yunmei know about her secret room and was discovered? Who told her?"

Master Wu shook his head: "She never told me about this."

"Okay." Gu Chen was a little helpless, but he could basically guess that it might be her sister Sun Haifang.

So Gu Chen asked again: "Master Wu, besides you, who else does Sun Yunmei have contact with?"

"Hmm... Which area are you referring to? In the monastery? Or outside?"

"It's all." Gu Chen said.

Master Wu sighed faintly, sitting cross-legged on the bed, thinking carefully.

After a few seconds, he said calmly, "I don't know much about people outside."

"After all, the poor monk doesn't gossip, and he doesn't intend to care about the family affairs of the benefactors. Unless the benefactors have puzzles in their hearts that are hard to answer, I can raise one or two points."

"As for who Sun Yunmei usually has close contacts with? I don't know the people outside the temple, but I heard that she has a younger sister named Sun Haifang, maybe this is the only person?"

"I know that." Gu Chen felt that Master Wu's answer was correct.

Logically speaking, with Sun Yunmei's personality, it's really hard for her to have true friends outside.

As her younger sister, Sun Haifang gave Sun Yunmei a place to stay. It can be seen that the two have a close relationship, but it seems that the relationship between the two is not as beautiful as imagined.

So Gu Chen continued to ask: "What about the monastery? Her Sun Yunmei often comes here to practice, so she should know a lot of people who practice here, right?"

"Well, there are quite a few practitioners I know, but Sun Yunmei is usually reticent, so there are not many people who know her very well, but I know that there is indeed one."

"Who is it?" Seeing Master Wu speak, Gu Chen's eyes were filled with anticipation.

Master Wu grinned and said: "The contractor who is helping our temple repair the house now is a middle-aged fat benefactor named Xu Dewen. He seems to be staying in our temple tonight, right?"

"I know this person, we talked about it tonight." As soon as Master Wu mentioned this person, Gu Chen immediately understood, and said:

"But I still want to know, besides this person, is there anyone else?"

Master Wu shook his head silently.

"Is this the only one?" Gu Chen asked again.

Master Wu nodded silently.

"No way? We asked him about this person, and he doesn't know Sun Yunmei's whereabouts." Gu Chen suddenly felt depressed.

I feel like I asked Xu Dewen, a fat middle-aged man, and then Master Wu, but neither of them knew anything about it.

Seeing this, Master Wu also grinned and reminded Gu Chen, "This person is very familiar with Sun Yunmei, and he was the one who helped seal the wall of Sun Yunmei's house before."

"What? That wall was built by him, Xu Dewen?" Hearing this statement, Gu Chen frowned suddenly, feeling a little surprised.

Master Wu nodded and smiled: "That's right, this is the tacit understanding that the two reached when they were practicing in a monastery a few years ago."

"Sun Yunmei wanted to preserve her son's room in its original form to commemorate her son, and Xu Dewen happened to be in this business, so the two hit it off right away."

"After Sun Yunmei left Beiling Monastery, she asked Xu Dewen to repair the wall, and Xu Dewen also promised to keep this matter a secret for her, so the relationship between the two has always been good."

"But Xu Dewen said that he doesn't know about Sun Yunmei's whereabouts." Gu Chen felt a little surprised when he heard such an explanation, but he was still a little depressed.

Surprisingly, the repairer of the wall has been found, and he is also one of the insiders.

What is frustrating is that Xu Dewen, a middle-aged fat man, has a good relationship with the old lady Sun Yunmei, but when communicating with her before, Gu Chen did not get the desired result from Xu Dewen.

Seeing that it might be futile with Master Wu, Gu Chen hurriedly asked again: "Then Master Wu, since you don't know where Sun Yunmei is going? Can you guess where she might go?"

"Uh...this..."

Facing Gu Chen's question, Master Wu hesitated again.

Looking at his expression, Gu Chen felt that Master Wu should be able to provide some useful clues.

Sure enough, not long after, Master Wu proposed to Gu Chen: "You can go around the Wujia Alley. As far as I know, it is her husband's old house. Although it has been donated to the Cultural Relics Bureau, it has become a cultural relic protection unit."

"But the vicinity of that old house is, after all, the place where Sun Yunmei and her missing husband met for the first time."

"So, based on my understanding of Sun Yunmei, she is a person who is extremely nostalgic. It is not difficult to see from her sealing up her son's room."

"Therefore, if you want to find her, you might as well try your luck at Wu's Alley."

"Great." After learning this important clue, Gu Chen took out a note, a pen and paper from the pocket of his down jacket, and began to record:
"Then do you know where Sun Yunmei's husband's old house is located in Wu's Alley?"

"Number 11 in Lane 11, right? I remember this number is special and easy to remember." Master Wu said.

Gu Chen quickly recorded it.

Looking up at Master Wu again, at this moment, Master Wu seemed exhausted.

Thinking of Master Wu going to other monasteries to communicate during the day, and going back to the monastery on Beiling Mountain at night, and now at two or three o'clock in the morning, he is still doing oral recordings with him, it is really embarrassing for others.

Gu Chen is not a cold-blooded machine, after recording the clues he wanted, he decisively ended the inquiry, stood up and thanked:

"Master Wu, thank you very much tonight, I feel really sorry for disturbing your rest."

"Where are you talking?" Seeing that Gu Chen was finally about to leave, Master Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and tried his best to put on his shoes from the cushion on the bed, preparing to send Gu Chen off.

Originally, Master Wu thought that Gu Chen was just a confused young man, and wanted to come to him for advice.

Thinking about my many years of experience in enlightening others, it may not take long for this young guy to suddenly see the light and be reborn from the ashes.

But Master Wu was a little careless, did not expect Gu Chen's identity to be a policeman?
Communicating with Gu Chen feels like being interrogated.

It feels like this Gu Chen wants to dig out all the things he knows about himself.

This back and forth also consumed a lot of my time and energy.

At this moment, Master Wu could hardly keep his eyelids open.

But after all, a master has to look like a master, and he can't fall asleep halfway through talking while instructing others.

So Master Wu, despite his age, suppressed his sleepiness and was sitting and talking with Gu Chen.

I felt that if Gu Chen didn't leave, I might almost be hypnotized by Gu Chen.

Fortunately, Gu Chen had already got up, so Master Wu breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly to the door.

Then he nodded slightly to Gu Chen, and then closed the door.

Walking out of the room, Gu Chen also felt that the coldness of the Beiling Mountains was overwhelming. He was only wearing a down jacket, not even outer pants and socks.

Braving the cold wind, Gu Chen could only trot all the way back to the room.

……

……

The next morning.

7:[-] am.

Gu Chen's phone rang, and seeing that the caller was Lu Weiwei, Gu Chen answered the phone decisively: "Hello, Senior Sister Lu."

"Junior Brother Gu, are you awake?" Lu Weiwei asked on the phone.

Seeing that Police Officer Wang had been woken up and was stretching, Gu Chen replied quickly, "Already awake."

"Then come out quickly, let's have breakfast together. I heard that there is a free vegetarian meal in the temple. I was so hungry last night. Now it's time to replenish energy."

Lu Weiwei seems to be very hungry, and now she is inviting Gu Chen to have breakfast together.

"Okay, then wait for us, we'll come out right away." Gu Chen hung up the phone, and then said to Police Officer Wang, "Senior Brother Wang, Senior Sister Lu invited us to have a vegetarian meal."

"Understood." Officer Wang yawned and sat up reluctantly.

The temperature in the Beiling Temple in the early morning is very low, and the room is just an ordinary brick structure. The gaps in the windows are very large, so it is not warm.

Officer Wang was covered with the quilt provided by the monastery, but it was still not warm.

I have to add some of my own clothes on top of it.

I slept until dawn, but my legs were still icy cold.

Officer Wang suddenly felt that sleeping in this kind of place was no different from suffering.

Rather than saying that you come here to practice, it is more realistic to say that you are "suffering".

After getting dressed, Officer Wang asked Gu Chen, "Gu Chen, how did you sleep last night?"

"It's okay." Gu Chen put on his shoes and said casually.

"It's okay?" Police Officer Wang said suspiciously, but also in a bad mood: "This place is too cold, I feel that there is no tool to warm up, it is simply suffering."

"This window, in particular, is still the ancient wooden window structure. Although it is equipped with glass, compared with the modern sliding window, this sliding window has no insulation at all, and there are gaps everywhere around it."

With a faint sigh, Officer Wang complained again and again: "I slept here last night, and I felt the wind blowing in."

"Hehe, Senior Brother Wang, when you come to Beiling Mountain, it's not bad to have a place to stay. After all, this is not a hotel, and other temples don't charge you money, so be content." Putting on her clothes, Gu Chen was in the bathroom of the room, simply using the After wiping his face with a wet towel, he took a sip of water by the faucet with his mouth, and after simply rinsing his mouth, he was considered finished.

Seeing this, Police Officer Wang imitated Gu Chen's gargling action, bent down, and filled a sip of water by the faucet.

As soon as Gu Chen went out, he heard a scream from Police Officer Wang inside the room.

"What's wrong with Lao Wang?" Lu Weiwei who was waiting for Gu Chen at the door asked.

"Maybe the water is too cold?" Gu Chen said.

At this moment, Officer Wang pushed open the door, and said with a bitter face: "The water here is too icy, and I feel like I'm going to freeze my teeth."

"Old Wang, don't make trouble. If the monks in the monastery hear about it, they will be angry. They think it's good to give you free accommodation, but you still pick and choose?" Lu Weiwei also reminded.

"Yeah Senior Brother Wang, here is no better than at home. It's not bad to have such conditions. This is still on the mountain, and the water source is tight. You must remember to save water." Yuan Shasha also quickly echoed.

Officer Wang waved his hand: "I see, eh? Didn't you say you're going to eat a free vegetarian meal? Where are you going to eat?"

Lu Weiwei pointed to a direction in the backyard and said, "I heard that the kitchen and dining room are over there."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up." Officer Wang touched his growling stomach, feeling that he was about to starve to death.

All of us, following the other practitioners who got up, walked towards the kitchen.

When I came to the kitchen, I suddenly felt a rush of heat from the house, which made everyone feel warm in the cold.

At this moment, there are already four or five people queuing up.

Gu Chen walked behind the last person and patted his shoulder.

Xu Dewen, the fat middle-aged man who was chatting with Gu Chen and the others last night, turned his head and said, "It's you, little brother? You woke up so early?"

"Well, after breakfast, we have to go down the mountain." Gu Chen said.

Xu Dewen grinned: "Haha, you lived in the monastery last night, so you probably didn't sleep very well, right? I guess you don't have any fire tools or electric blankets in your room."

"Don't you guys have them?" Officer Wang, who was behind Gu Chen, was immediately envious when he heard this.

The middle-aged fat man Xu Dewen grinned: "That's for sure. It's not the first time we've worked here. We already know the weather here."

"So, those tools for warming the fire, as well as heating tools such as electric blankets, were all brought up from the mountain by us."

"Damn, I knew I would borrow it from you guys. Yesterday I felt like I was sleeping in a hole in the ice, and I didn't feel my feet until now." Thinking of this, Police Officer Wang couldn't help but stamp his legs.

It feels like these legs are no longer my own.

Lu Weiwei grinned: "It's just you, Old Wang, who have a lot of trouble."

"Aren't you cold when you sleep?" Officer Wang glanced at Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei grinned, hugged Yuan Shasha beside her and said, "Of course I sleep on the same bed as Xiao Yuan."

"Although the bed is a bit small, it's really warm to hug and sleep together."

"Didn't Senior Brother Wang sleep in the same bed as Senior Brother Gu last night?" Yuan Shasha asked him curiously.

As soon as the words fell, Officer Wang was a little embarrassed.

The two little girls hugged each other and slept on the same bed, and there seemed to be no major problem.

But the two big men hugged each other and slept on the same bed, and the style of painting felt a little weird.

After all, this society is still too demanding on men.

For example, on the street, women hold hands, and everyone feels that everything is normal.

But if you see two men holding hands on the street, it may cause criticism.

Or women and women go to eat and feed each other, there is no problem at all.

But if you find two men feeding each other in the restaurant, you will probably be called a "pervert".

This seems to have become a kind of default right in society.

So when Yuan Shasha asked this idea that didn't seem to have too many problems, Officer Wang felt embarrassed.

"Senior Brother Wang, it's your turn." Officer Wang here is still thinking wildly, while Gu Chen on the other side has already made breakfast and is looking for a vacant seat with the breakfast.

There is a small door between the kitchen and the dining room.

The dining room is composed of several long tables, and the stools are benches.

As for the vegetarian breakfast, it is also very simple.

Just some steamed buns and millet porridge, very light.

Sitting next to Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei ate with great relish, and praised from time to time: "Junior Brother Gu, I usually feel that this steamed bun is ordinary, and I never even eat it in the cafeteria."

"But today I feel different. Today's steamed buns taste extra delicious."

"Maybe Senior Sister Lu is too hungry? This steamed bun feels similar to the steamed bun in our cafeteria." Gu Chen also said casually.

Lu Weiwei nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Well, maybe, the millet porridge here is also good, it would be better if you can add some sugar."

Here, Lu Weiwei was still praising the good vegetarian food for breakfast, so Officer Wang, who was sitting opposite Gu Chen, reminded him, "Eat quickly, and go to Master Wu after eating to see if he's back today?"

"No need, let's go straight down the mountain." Gu Chen said while eating steamed buns and drinking millet porridge.

Officer Wang raised his brows and said with a smile: "Gu Chen, what are you talking about? We are here to find Master Wu. If Master Wu is not here, how can we go down the mountain early?"

"Senior Brother Wang, I..."

"Did you meet Master Wu in your dream?" Before Gu Chen finished speaking, Police Officer Wang smiled teasingly:

"Don't tell me, last night, I really dreamed that Master Wu came back late at night, and then you Gu Chen got up to look for him. I guess you met him in your dream?"

"Uh……"

Gu Chen didn't know how to explain it for a while, and after a few seconds of embarrassment, he nodded silently: "Senior Brother Wang, I may have really met Master Wu in my dream, and I even recorded the conversation with Master Wu in a transcript. record it."

As soon as the voice fell, Gu Chen directly took out the note paper recorded last night from his pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Police Officer Wang.

Officer Wang stared blankly, opened the post-it note with one hand, and looked it up suspiciously.

But when he saw that Gu Chen had densely recorded many dictations about Master Wu, he was taken aback.

So I flipped the note to the end, and there was even the date of signing, which was 3 o'clock in the morning.

Officer Wang raised his head and said in a daze, "Gu... Gu Chen, did you really meet Master Wu in your dream?"

"Pfft!" Hearing what Police Officer Wang said, Gu Chen couldn't help holding back a laugh, and quickly explained: "I wanted to wake you up last night, but Senior Brother Wang was very tired and snoring all the time. , and I can't bear to wake you up."

"Besides, at that time of night, I wasn't sure if Master Wu had returned to the temple, so I went there alone to see what was going on. In the end, I really ran into Master Wu."

"Junior Brother Gu, did you really see Master Wu last night?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei's eyes were also dull.

Everyone slept soundly last night, and didn't hear anything outside at all.

Gu Chen nodded silently, and took the initiative to admit: "That's right, I was in Master Wu's room last night, and I chatted with him until about 3 o'clock in the morning, and I have already asked everything that should be asked."

"Really?" Yuan Shasha was also very excited when she heard Gu Chen's remarks, "It seems that Brother Gu is very efficient in his work, so what exactly did we talk about?"

"You can see for yourself." Police officer Wang handed the note to Yuan Shasha after briefly flipping through it.

Gu Chen turned his head and looked behind him.

At this moment, Xu Dewen, a fat middle-aged man, was having dinner with his fellow workers, still discussing today's construction tasks.

So Gu Chen turned his head and said in a low voice, "It turns out that the contractor we saw last night is Xu Dewen, and he helped Sun Yunmei to seal up that room in her house with bricks."

"So he did it?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei was also quite surprised: "Then the relationship between her and Sun Yunmei should be good?"

Gu Chen nodded silently: "Of course, but he doesn't know where Sun Yunmei is now? But Master Wu told me, we can go to Wujia Alley, Lane 11, No. 11 to try our luck."

"Because it used to be the old house of Sun Yunmei's missing husband's family, and Sun Yunmei is an extremely nostalgic person, maybe you can find her there."

"As long as there are clues." Lu Weiwei is not too demanding now.

At least find some clues from Master Wu.

In this way, it is much easier than having no clue before.

For the rest of the time, everyone circulated Gu Chen's notes to each other, and probably understood what Gu Chen talked with Master Wu last night.

……

……

7:30 am.

After breakfast, everyone bid farewell to the monk who cleaned the courtyard in the monastery, and then hurriedly left Beiling and walked down the mountain.

After finding the vehicle, everyone rushed to Wujia Alley without stopping.

On the way, Gu Chen also explained to everyone: "Master Wu told me that every time Sun Yunmei came to Beiling to worship her son, she basically prayed in the monastery."

"She is not very familiar with the people in the monastery, mainly because of her personality."

"That's right, this Sun Yunmei should be a taciturn person." Lu Weiwei also roughly guessed Sun Yunmei's character.

Officer Wang also said, "It's surprising. In the monastery, the people Sun Yunmei knows best are the fat contractor and Master Wu."

"Does this Sun Yunmei have no friends outside? In this society, having no friends is really a very pitiful thing."

"Isn't there her sister Sun Haifang?" Yuan Shasha reminded.

Gu Chen who was driving also nodded silently: "That's right, Sun Yunmei's only acquaintance outside is her sister Sun Haifang."

"When her husband disappeared, she still had her son as her spiritual support, but then her son also disappeared, and she also began to lose focus on running her own business."

"And in this world, her sister Sun Haifang is the only one who has a close relationship with her."

"And the relationship between the two is not very harmonious." Listening to Gu Chen's words, Lu Weiwei also added.

Police Officer Wang clicked his tongue twice, and couldn't help but sighed, "Did you find out? It's okay for Sun Yunmei to be a widow, but her younger sister, Sun Haifang, lives there alone."

"I noticed that too." Gu Chen, who was driving, nodded silently, and said involuntarily, "I asked Brother He to investigate this Sun Haifang, and found that Sun Haifang had a very short marriage and divorced very early."

"After the divorce, I almost lived alone, and I didn't have any children, and I didn't reorganize a new family."

"That's very strange." Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and said thoughtfully, "If a woman has no children, she will be very lonely in the future."

"Her sister Sun Yunmei is fine without her husband and son, why doesn't her Sun Haifang choose to continue getting married?"

"And now it seems that at this age, even if you want to find a wife to live with, it will be difficult."

"Even if you are single, you still want to spend the rest of your life with an 18-year-old girl."

"Hehe, maybe both of these sisters had an unfortunate marriage? The psychological trauma is serious, and they no longer believe in love. Maybe that's the case."

Police officer Wang also guessed randomly.

I always feel that the life of these twin sisters is too rough.

At this age, it stands to reason that they are full of children and grandchildren.

But now it seems that is not the case at all.

Other families are holding grandchildren, but these two sisters have always been lonely, which makes people feel distressed.

Just as everyone was teasing, the vehicle soon arrived near the entrance of Wujia Lane in the old city.

Gu Chen parked the car in an empty parking space beside him, got out of the car with everyone, and started looking for No. 11, Lane 11.

After several inquiries, everyone came to the door of a small courtyard.

The house number is No. 11, Lane 11, which matches the address provided by Master Wu.

Everyone carefully looked at the old house in front of them.

Although the courtyard is small, the building has 3 floors.

Moreover, this kind of building has obviously been repaired and maintained.

There is also an introduction board hanging on the wall by the door.

The general content is to introduce the history of this house, which feels like a hundred years.

Thinking that people could live in this kind of house a hundred years ago, it is obvious that Sun Yunmei's overseas Chinese husband's family was quite prominent back then.

It's just that this old house is now under the management of the Cultural Relics Bureau.

The gate was also locked, so it was impossible to get in.

Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and looked at the old house in front of her with emotion: "Could it be that Sun Yunmei will appear here?"

Looking around, Lu Weiwei said again: "But the alleys here look very old and haven't been repaired much, so these old houses are simply reinforced."

Gu Chen took out his mobile phone, turned on the map to locate it, and then sent it to He Junchao, and then replied by voice after the content of the message, probably asking He Junchao to help find nearby surveillance cameras.

While waiting for He Junchao to search, Gu Chen was not idle. He clicked on the photo album on his mobile phone, showed Sun Yunmei's photo in front of everyone passing by, and asked about Sun Yunmei's whereabouts, hoping to get some clues from the passers-by.

But it is a pity that almost no one who passes by pedestrians knows.

Just 10 minutes later, Gu Chen's phone rang suddenly.

The caller was He Junchao, so Gu Chen quickly pressed the answer button and asked, "Senior Brother He, how did the investigation go?"

"Gu Chen, I... I found Sun Yunmei's whereabouts." He Junchao spoke with a choked voice.

When Gu Chen heard it, he immediately felt that it might not be good news.

So he hurriedly asked He Junchao again: "Senior Brother He, what's going on?"

"Sun Yunmei did appear nearby a few years ago, and the surveillance captured it. At that time, Sun Yunmei directly stayed in this old house, which is where you are now, for a while."

"Later along this alley, I walked to the end, and finally disappeared."

"Walk to the end of the alley? And then disappeared?" Gu Chen's expression was blank, some did not understand, so he asked He Junchao:

"Senior Brother He, what do you mean by that? Is there no monitoring at the end of the alley?"

"Uh... It can be understood in this way, but what I want to tell you is that there is not only no surveillance at the end of the alley, but there is also a river."

"A river?" Hearing He Junchao's remarks, Gu Chen stared blankly, and suddenly realized: "You mean...Sun Yunmei might jump into the river?"

"Yes, but I can't confirm it at the moment, but since then, I have never found Sun Yunmei's whereabouts in the surveillance, and she just disappeared."

"And it was late at night when Sun Yunmei walked to the end of the alley. She only walked to the river at night."

"Jumping into the river in the middle of the night? Could it be suicide?" Gu Chen couldn't imagine it any longer, and couldn't help but froze in place, looking towards the end of the alley.

"Gu Chen, that's all I can help you with. You'd better go to the other side of the alley to see what's going on."

"Okay, I see, thank you Senior Brother He."

After a brief communication between Gu Chen and He Junchao, he hung up the phone decisively.

At this moment, Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha were also surrounding Gu Chen.

Everyone could hear Gu Chen's call with He Junchao just now, and it felt like Sun Yunmei might have committed suicide by jumping into the river at the end of Wu's alley.

"Junior Brother Gu!" Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen for no reason.

"Let's go, go to the end of the alley." Gu Chen didn't have time to explain at this moment, and led everyone to run quickly to the end of the alley.

This alley is not too long. After trotting for about 50 meters, we came to the river.

There are many ancient alleys built along the river like Jiangnan City, and many of them are arranged in rows.

And at the end of the alley, there is this small river.

And along the small river is another trail, which cannot be passed by cars at all, and can only be walked and cycled.

But at this moment, Gu Chen was lying on the guardrail, staring at the clear river and couldn't help but be dazed.

It seems that one can already imagine the sad scene of Sun Yunmei walking to the river in desperation and then jumping down that night.

"Sun Yunmei jumped from here? Is there a mistake?" Police Officer Wang panicked, feeling that this was a bit strange.

After all, at night, run here to commit suicide?What kind of grievance is this?

Gu Chen also shook his head, and said involuntarily: "At present, I don't know the specific situation? But it is very likely that Sun Yunmei committed suicide by jumping into the river from here."

"And Brother He told me that the surveillance here can only monitor these areas. After Sun Yun came here that night, the surveillance did not capture her again. She disappeared out of thin air here."

"If she didn't commit suicide by jumping into the river, where would she go?" Yuan Shasha was also curious.
