I am a super cop
Chapter 1999 Secret Channel [2 in 1 Chapter]
In the office, everyone felt relieved.
The non-stop work in the past few days has made everyone exhausted.
Fortunately, hard work has brought about various breakthroughs in important clues, which naturally doubled everyone's confidence.
Especially after cracking the hacker's deception tricks and finding out the behind-the-scenes personnel who destroyed the monitoring system of the freight center.
This breakthrough directly advances the cause and effect of Xu Ting's killing by a big step forward.
Gu Chen calmed down, and hurriedly said: "Senior Brother He, let Xiao Yuanshan be the focus of the breakthrough now, don't startle the snake for the time being."
"On the one hand, we are monitoring and looking for various traces of Xiao Yuanshan these days."
"On the other hand, dispatch a plainclothes team to keep an eye on Xiao Yuanshan 24 hours a day. This time, Xiao Yuanshan cannot be allowed to escape."
"That's right." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Master Xi couldn't wait to say:
"This time, if we find the briquettes, we will also find the fish that slipped through the Wangxiangu side, and we can catch them all in one go."
Taking a deep breath, Master Xi covered his chest with his hands, as if praying for the safe completion of the task.
He Junchao nodded silently, and echoed, "Leave the monitoring of Xiao Yuanshan's whereabouts to me. I will check Xiao Yuanshan's current activities first, and you can arrange the plainclothes team yourself."
"Plainclothes team, I asked Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong to take people there, they are more experienced in this area." Gu Chen said.
Master Xi nodded silently: "Then do this."
……
……
7 pm.
Office of the Criminal Investigation Squad.
Everyone was reluctant to go to the cafeteria to eat and waste time, so they greeted Master Nie in the cafeteria and asked the auntie in the cafeteria to pack everyone's dinner into lunch boxes.
Then the criminal investigation team sent people to pick it up, and everyone was going to solve the dinner problem in the office.
However, not long after, Nie Xiaoyu walked into the office panting with two bags of lunch boxes.
Seeing everyone sitting around He Junchao, Nie Xiaoyu also called out.
When everyone saw this, they immediately went over to help her get food.
"Xiaoyu, why is it you?" Since Nie Xiaoyu was admitted to university, she rarely appeared in the Furong branch, so Lu Weiwei was quite curious.
Seeing this, Nie Xiaoyu also smiled and said: "Isn't this just going home today? I heard that you ordered some packed lunch boxes. I knew that you must have an important case."
"I thought I didn't need to bother you to come to the cafeteria to pick up the food, so I told my old Nie that I will get your dinner for you."
"Thank you so much." Lu Weiwei quickly took out the lunch boxes and distributed them to everyone in proportion to the meals.
Seeing that Nie Xiaoyu was still carrying her schoolbag, Lu Weiwei asked again: "What's in the bag?"
"Sour plum soup, I just made it in the cafeteria. I put two big bottles in a drink bottle and share it with you."
As soon as Nie Xiaoyu finished speaking, he immediately unloaded the backpack.
Yuan Shasha immediately came over and couldn't help but marvel: "Xiao Yu, you are too polite, aren't you?"
"It should be." Nie Xiaoyu let out a long breath, and said to Police Officer Wang who was grabbing food: "Officer Wang, please bring some disposable paper cups, I will share sour plum soup with you."
"Really? And sour plum soup?" Police officer Wang's eyes lit up when he heard that the dinner was rich enough. He immediately put down the lunch box he had snatched, and ran to the water dispenser in a hurry to get a disposable paper cup from underneath.
Passing by his desk, Police Officer Wang directly picked up his thermos and came directly to Nie Xiaoyu.
Lu Weiwei asked vigilantly: "Old Wang, what do you mean by bringing a thermos?"
"Put sour plum soup, can't you save a paper cup?" Officer Wang swore, feeling that this reason would be too ridiculous?
Lu Weiwei glanced at him, but also exposed the trick and said: "Don't think I don't know, your old king wants to fill your thermos."
"Let me tell you, Xiaoyu has worked so hard to deliver the sour plum soup. Everyone is equal and distributed equally. You old king don't want to eat alone."
"Hey! Look at what you said. If you don't know, you think my old king can't afford it."
Seeing what Lu Weiwei has said, if I fill this thermos by myself, I feel like I'm taking advantage of everyone.
So Police Officer Wang unscrewed the cover, handed it to Nie Xiaoyu and said, "Xiaoyu, you can pretend as you see it."
"Pfft." Seeing that everyone was fighting for sour plum soup, Nie Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing, and quickly poured a full cup of sour plum soup in a large Coke bottle for Police Officer Wang.
Officer Wang was also overjoyed when he saw this, and showed off in front of Lu Weiwei, "Did you see it? Xiaoyu still has a conscience."
"Get lost." Lu Weiwei rolled his eyes at him, so she quickly said softly to Gu Chen, "Junior Brother Gu, let me make you a glass too."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lu." Gu Chen has been carefully analyzing Xiao Yuanshan's movements with He Junchao and Master Xi, but just casually said.
But not long after, Lu Weiwei directly used Gu Chen's thermos and handed the filled sour plum soup to her: "Junior Brother Gu, here it is."
"So much?" Gu Chen was also taken aback for a moment, unscrewed the lid, and took a casual sip.
Seeing this, Nie Xiaoyu leaned over and asked, "Brother Gu Chen, how does it taste?"
"It's great, it's even better than the sour plum soup I drank in the hot pot restaurant." Gu Chen appreciated it.
Nie Xiaoyu was satisfied, and said with a smile, "Isn't that right? This sour plum soup is made by me and my old comrade Nie, with sour plum powder and the best proportion of mineral water. The taste must be authentic."
"Thank you Xiaoyu, thank you for your sour plum soup." After a few words of casual praise, Gu Chen continued to take a sip, then hurried back to the computer and continued to stare at Xiao Yuanshan's movements.
Nie Xiaoyu originally wanted to hear a few more compliments from Gu Chen, but Gu Chen's compliment seemed short and quick, which made Nie Xiaoyu quite disappointed.
But at the same time, he hurriedly asked Officer Wang: "Officer Wang, are you investigating a big case? Even Lord Xi is dispatched?"
"Isn't that so? This case is extraordinary. We've already spent too much time, and the suspect is very cunning. If we can't find the suspect's evidence this time, Bureau Zhao will probably have to hang us up and use us as sandbags to vent our anger. "
"Is it so serious?" Hearing Officer Wang's alarmist words, and seeing Gu Chen's concentration on his work, Nie Xiaoyu also let out a long sigh:
"It seems to be another sleepless night. If you need supper or something, feel free to talk to our cafeteria. We will be on duty late in the cafeteria tonight."
Seeing that everyone was devouring it, it seemed that they were not listening to themselves at all.
Nie Xiaoyu let out a long sigh, walked directly beside Gu Chen, took out two tea eggs from his pocket, put them on Gu Chen's desk, turned and left.
There was a sound of chewing and chewing, and everyone enjoyed a different kind of dinner like a starved ghost reincarnated.
After 15 minutes, everyone finished eating.
Only then did Gu Chen pat He Junchao on the shoulder, signaling He Junchao to go eat first, and follow the whereabouts by himself.
It can be said that the current Xiao Yuanshan has been stared to death in Fuxing Village by the plainclothes team led by Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong.
Everyone was guarding different intersections. In order to observe Xiao Yuanshan at close range, many people even received high-powered binoculars from the police equipment warehouse.
On the other hand, Gu Chen, with the cooperation of He Junchao, gradually pieced together Xiao Yuanshan's various whereabouts these days.
It can be said that on the night Xu Ting was killed, Xiao Yuanshan also left Fuxing Village in the middle of the night.
And in terms of time, Xiao Yuanshan arrived near the storage center first.
And that deck car is the best evidence.
It can be seen from the monitoring that Xiao Yuanshan usually drives to a hidden location first, and then completes the replacement of the license plate in the blind spot of the monitoring.
In the subsequent whereabouts, Xiao Yuanshan will change various clothes to conduct anti-reconnaissance.
He even put on a white wig and pretended to be an uncle, deliberately concealing his age.
But even so, this kind of trick may be able to hide it for a while from the eyes of ordinary people.
However, under the strict investigation of Gu Chen's team, taking Xiao Yuanshan as a specific target, it is still very easy to find Xiao Yuanshan's disguised appearance through the investigation method.
"It's here." Gu Chen tapped the screen, confirming, "Xiao Yuanshan hid his camouflage clothes in this area. I guess it's somewhere in the old alley here."
"Do you need to send someone to investigate?" Master Xi asked while eating.
Gu Chen silently nodded: "Let Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe do it."
"Understood." Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe, who had just finished their meal, heard Gu Chen's order, immediately put away the lunch box, and hurried over to check the location.
Gu Chen clicked on the map, and after confirming the location, he explained to the two of them: "This place, let me check it out."
"Because of this Xiao Yuanshan, every time he appears in this surveillance blind spot, his license plate number will change, and his clothes will also change."
"You can focus on investigating in this alley..."
After the words fell, Gu Chen showed some of the surveillance pictures that were retrieved in front of Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe, reminding him:
"The key point is these clothes. When Xiao Yuanshan was in Fuxing Village, he usually wore black clothes."
"But after changing his license plate outside and disguising his identity, he usually wears either white or blue clothes, which are the clothes in the picture."
"After you find it, immediately send it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau, and hand it over to the team of forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng, so that they can extract various clues from the clothing and prepare for the investigation of Xiao Yuanshan later."
"Understood." Wu Xiaofeng, who understood Gu Chen's meaning, immediately nodded and confirmed, "We'll go there now."
"Be careful." Gu Chen said.
After a brief communication between the two groups, Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe quickly left the office and disappeared at the end of the aisle.
On the other side, Ding Liang, who was lurking outside Fuxing Village, also happened to call.
Without further ado, Gu Chen pressed the answer button and asked, "Ding Liang, how is the situation on your end?"
"It's very strange, this Xiao Yuanshan seems to be staying at home all the time, and there is no sign of going out."
"It's best not to go out." When Gu Chen got the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"We have now asked other teams to focus on investigating some clues about Xiao Yuanshan."
"Your task is to stay firmly in Fuxing Village and closely monitor Xiao Yuanshan's movements. You must not let him have another chance to escape."
"After we complete the evidence collection work here, we can arrest people immediately."
"Don't worry." With Gu Chen's explanation, Ding Liang also confirmed and said:
"My brothers and I will just stare here, so that Xiao Yuanshan won't have the possibility of escaping."
"It's fine with your words." Hearing Ding Liang's reply, Gu Chen felt relieved.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen has already completed various investigations on Xiao Yuanshan in the recent period, and collected a lot of strange movements of Xiao Yuanshan in total.
The most direct way is to change the license plate number in the monitoring blind spot.
There are also disguised as old people, changing clothes of different colors.
These camouflage techniques are indeed difficult to distinguish the real from the fake in front of ordinary people, but Gu Chen's team has solid experience in handling cases.
For some disguise techniques, everyone can even be Xiao Yuanshan's teacher.
So after eating a simple dinner, everyone began to be on standby.
……
……
At 10:20 in the evening, Wu Xiaofeng, who was carrying out a search mission outside, suddenly called.
Without further ado, Gu Chen pressed the answer button and asked, "Xiao Wu, how is the situation?"
"Senior Brother Gu, as expected, we found in the old alley here, there is an old house, the door lock is very new, but there are some sundries piled inside."
"Later, we inquired from the surrounding residents and heard that the room in this old house was rented out to store some sundries."
"When asked about the tenants, the answers given by the local residents are basically in line with Xiao Yuanshan's appearance and characteristics."
"Didn't you sign any rental agreement?" Gu Chen asked.
Wu Xiaofeng denied it with a smile: "That's not true, because the old house is very dilapidated and the rent is not much, so after the landlord negotiated with the tenant, the tenant paid the money directly and wrote a rental contract by hand."
"Anyway, this old house is still on the shelf. It can be rented out, and the rent will be charged a month, which is not bad for the landlord."
"What's more, there are still some messy items piled up in the old house, and the landlord doesn't care."
"However, from what the landlord said, we can be sure that this person may be Xiao Yuanshan."
"Then have you entered the house yet?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Entered the house." Wu Xiaofeng quickly replied: "Because we explained the situation to the landlord, the landlord gave us a key and let us enter the house to search."
"Sure enough, we found a set of white clothes and a set of blue clothes in the room, as well as a white wig, and some other matching accessories."
"It can be said that these are Xiao Yuanshan's disguise props, and now we have confiscated them according to law."
"If necessary, we can take it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau at any time and hand it over to forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng."
"Okay, you can go to the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau now and bring these evidences." Gu Chen said.
"Understood, then Senior Brother Gu, do you have anything else to say?" Wu Xiaofeng paused for a few seconds, then hurriedly asked again.
"Not yet. I will immediately ask the plainclothes team lurking near Fuxing Village to carry out the arrest mission."
"If all goes well, we will meet at the gate of the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau."
"Okay, then we will meet at the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau."
After a brief communication, both parties hung up the phone together.
Afterwards, Gu Chen called Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong's team on the outskirts of Fuxing Village, ordering them to arrest Xiao Yuanshan immediately.
Everyone sat in the office, quietly waiting for the result of the arrest.
However, after half an hour passed, Gu Chen's mobile phone on the table did not ring for a long time, which gave Gu Chen an ominous premonition.
He thought that under the circumstances of conclusive evidence, the arrest of Xiao Yuanshan would take at most ten minutes.
But now half an hour has passed, but there has been no response to the phone call.
Officer Wang who was sitting on the side couldn't help complaining: "What are Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong doing? Why haven't they responded yet? Will something go wrong?"
Master Xi glanced at Gu Chen, crossed his arms and asked, "Gu Chen, why don't you call and ask?"
"Okay." Feeling that there is no way to wait any longer, Gu Chen picked up the mobile phone on the table and dialed it directly.
After a while, the call was connected, but it was Ding Liang's frustrated response: "Gu Chen, we... we screwed up."
"What's the situation?" Gu Chen hurriedly asked when he heard that the situation was not good.
"Xiao Yuanshan ran away." Ding Liang said.
"What did you say? Xiao Yuanshan ran away? Haven't you been staring at Xiao Yuanshan? Why did you let him run away? What's going on?"
Feeling that there was no phone call just now, Gu Chen had an ominous premonition.
But now it seems that my premonition was right, and there was still a flaw in the arrest operation.
Ding Liang couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the truth: "The situation is like this. We have been monitoring Xiao Yuanshan's home from the outside."
"Because there are surveillance cameras everywhere around Fuxing Village, we dare not get close. We can only monitor Xiao Yuanshan according to the surveillance deployment map you provided, and focus on the peripheral areas of the surveillance blind spots."
"Before we saw that the lights were always on in Xiao Yuanshan's house, because we knew that Xiao Yuanshan lived alone, so we thought that as long as the lights were on, he should be at home."
"Moreover, we are still in the peripheral area, and we have found Xiao Yuanshan with the window open."
"Thinking about it, arresting Xiao Yuanshan is a sure thing."
"Then what happened later?" Hearing Ding Liang's words, Gu Chen knew that something went wrong in the process.
Ding Liang also looked frustrated, and sighed: "Who would know later? This Xiao Yuanshan disappeared out of thin air."
"We searched all the upstairs and downstairs of his house, but there was no one there."
"Could this Xiao Yuanshan really disappear out of thin air? Or, your monitoring is sloppy..."
"No, absolutely not." At the same time when Gu Chen questioned, Huang Zunlong on the side quickly denied the words, saying:
"Gu Chen, our plainclothes team is monitoring the front and back doors of Xiao Yuanshan's home without any blind spots."
"And there are colleagues on duty to observe all the time, as long as Xiao Yuanshan goes out, we can find out."
"But the point is, from the beginning to the end, we didn't find out that Xiao Yuanshan had left the house. He couldn't have gone out."
"But when we thought we could arrest Xiao Yuanshan and bring him to justice immediately, Xiao Yuanshan disappeared without a trace. It was like seeing a ghost, disappearing out of thin air."
"Let's do this." Seeing that Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong were staying at the scene of Fuxing Village, it seemed that they couldn't solve the current problem at all.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, and also explained: "You protect the scene well, and I will bring people over to support you."
"Okay, then we will wait for you in Fuxing Village."
The two sides also communicated briefly, and then hung up the phone together.
Unlike the communication with Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe just now, the communication with Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong gave Gu Chen a headache.
Logically speaking, everything is going according to plan.
Originally, the work of collecting evidence had been basically completed, and Xiao Yuanshan could be arrested soon.
But at a critical moment, Xiao Yuanshan disappeared from his home.
This made Gu Chen a little confused, and didn't know what was going on at the scene?
Thinking that Xiao Yuanshan might be his eyes everywhere for the entire Fuxing Village.
When necessary, He Junchao can also use the monitoring system purchased by Fuxing Village to investigate Xiao Yuanshan's whereabouts.
So Gu Chen called other police officers including He Junchao, and went to Fuxing Village to find out.
……
……
When Gu Chen and the others drove to the scene of Fuxing Village, Ding Liang, who was guarding the intersection, immediately took Gu Chen and the others who got off the car, and went straight to Xiao Yuanshan's home, explaining the situation to Gu Chen and the others while walking.
When he came to the living room, Ding Liang said helplessly, "This is the situation. Although the front and rear doors of Xiao Yuanshan's house are not locked."
"But we have searched many times, but we couldn't find any trace of Xiao Yuanshan."
"This guy, it's like disappearing out of thin air." Huang Zunlong also walked over and said.
Gu Chen looked around and shook his head: "No, if you see with your own eyes that Xiao Yuanshan is at home, then he can't disappear from your eyes."
"The only possibility is that Xiao Yuanshan is still in the house, just hiding in a hidden corner and not being discovered by you."
"However, we have searched Xiao Yuanshan's house several times, inside and out, but we haven't found any place to hide him." A trainee policeman also complained.
Gu Chen didn't talk nonsense, turned his head to look at He Junchao beside him, and said, "Senior Brother He, take someone with you to the monitoring room of the villagers' committee in Fuxing Village."
"Check all the monitoring tonight, and see if this Xiao Yuanshan has left the house tonight."
"If there is, then the monitoring of Fuxing Village will definitely be able to catch it."
"I understand." After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Junchao immediately called the trainee policeman and accompanied him.
Afterwards, Gu Chen glanced at Lord Xi, Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha again, and said:
"Then, let's search Xiao Yuanshan's house again to see if there are any new discoveries?"
"Okay, you can do whatever you want." Master Xi also sighed softly, looking left and right with his hands on his hips.
Originally, everyone thought that they had the chance to win, and they thought they could catch Xiao Yuanshan at home under the premise of having evidence.
But now it seems that everyone's wishful thinking seems to have come to nothing.
Xiao Yuanshan disappeared, as if he disappeared right under everyone's noses.
So, everyone started to act in groups and started another search for Xiao Yuanshan's home.
Time soon came to the early morning, and a call from He Junchao came from the monitoring room of the village committee committee.
"Gu Chen, I have investigated all the surveillance cameras in Fuxing Village tonight, especially near Xiao Yuanshan's house, and found no movement of Xiao Yuanshan going out."
"So I judge that Xiao Yuanshan should still be hiding at home now, you should look for it carefully."
"Understood." Upon receiving He Junchao's reply, Gu Chen also sighed softly.
It feels like things are getting complicated.
Since the investigation tonight was a bit noisy, many names of Fuxing Village wanted to come and join in the fun, but they were advised by the police to stay at home and not go out without authorization.
After checking on the first floor for a while, Gu Chen came to the kitchen and found that there seemed to be some traces of friction between the kitchen closet and the wall.
Even the surrounding dust seemed to show signs of being scratched.
This made Gu Chen a little curious, and Dang even squatted down to check the kitchen closet.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei hurried to Gu Chen's side and asked, "Junior Brother Gu, what did you find?"
"There seems to be something wrong here." Gu Chen knocked on the closet a few times, and then opened the closet door.
I saw all kinds of tableware in the kitchen closet.
Ding Liang walked to Gu Chen's side and reminded him, "We have checked here."
"Then, have you noticed that in the corner of the closet, there are some dusty parts in a regular shape?" Gu Chen also cut to the chase, pointing out the problem.
"Regular shape?" Ding Liang was a little puzzled, and couldn't help looking at Huang Zunlong beside him.
Huang Zunlong was also a little confused, so he asked Gu Chen directly, "Gu Chen, just say what you want?"
"The dust on the ground has obvious traces of being rubbed." Gu Chen, who was wearing white gloves, first pointed out the traces he found with his hands.
Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong looked at each other, and hurried forward to find out.
But after a while, the two suddenly realized.
Huang Zunlong was also incredulous: "So, Gu Chen, do you think there is something wrong with this closet?"
"Let's see if there is any problem." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he stood up directly.
Afterwards, Gu Chen grabbed the corner of the closet with both hands and began to exert force with both hands.
Soon, the closet that was originally fixed on the wall suddenly started to move backwards.
Gu Chen easily moved the closet back a certain distance, so he continued to exert strength.
After a while, the entire closet was instantly dented inward.
At the same time, a tiny door was revealed on the side wall.
Yuan Shasha on the side was stunned and said, "My God! Is this a secret room?"
"I'll go take a look." Seeing this, Lu Weiwei wanted to go over to check what happened, but was quickly stopped by Gu Chen.
"Senior Sister Lu, don't move yet." Gu Chen grabbed Lu Weiwei, pulled her back, and then took out the bright flashlight, shining it on the small door on the side.
Seeing that there was no movement in the cave, Gu Chen took out his mobile phone again, turned on the light of the mobile phone, and turned on the camera function.
I saw Gu Chen aiming the camera of his mobile phone at the entrance of the cave, slowly approaching the inside, and then turning around.
It was also after some operations that Gu Chen took back the phone and continued to click the play button.
Soon, everyone gathered together to observe Gu Chen's shooting.
It was only then that everyone was surprised to find that the small hole in the wall actually had a hole in it.
In addition to the position of the cave entrance and some concrete floors, there is actually a slope structure in another part of the cave.
And because the end of the slope was just in a blind spot, Gu Chen couldn't photograph the specific situation below the slope.
At the end of the playback, Gu Chen sighed faintly and said, "Xiao Yuanshan is probably hiding inside, no wonder he disappeared under your noses, now you need to go into the cave to check."
"I'll go." Ding Liang said.
Gu Chen grabbed him and said, "Let me come, you all follow me."
"Junior Brother Gu, be careful, maybe this Xiao Yuanshan is hiding in the dark, be careful that he is not good for you." Seeing that Gu Chen insisted on going in, Lu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat, with unspeakable nervousness and worry.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, smiled lightly, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, this hole is not too small, it's not difficult to get in, I'll pay attention."
"Gu Chen, go ahead and check the surrounding situation. If there is no problem, we will arrive later." Master Xi said.
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Understood."
Afterwards, Gu Chen put the bright flashlight into the secret room first, and got in flexibly.
The entrance of the secret room is equivalent to a one-third the size of the door space, and it is not difficult for Gu Chen's stature to enter the hole.
Also after getting into this small space, Gu Chen immediately picked up the strong flashlight on the ground and pointed it at the slope in front of him.
However, there was not much abnormality in the direction of the slope, so Gu Chen waved to the hole behind him.
Then, Police Officer Wang, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong entered the secret passage one after another.
The four quickly lined up, holding mechanical batons as defense.
Lu Weiwei, who was about to enter the cave, asked curiously, "How's the situation inside?"
"It's strange." Officer Wang squinted his eyes to observe, and said indifferently: "Where does the slope in front lead to? It feels like a big space."
"Let's go and have a look." Gu Chen didn't know the specific structure, but felt that the building was too weird.
It seems that from the very beginning, Xiao Yuanshan wanted to use this place as a storage area for certain items.
In the entire secret passage, the air is extremely turbid, giving people a very bad experience.
Fortunately, everyone wears a mask, but it still smells bad.
But Xiao Yuanshan disappeared from the house after all, and from the current point of view, only this secret passage is the only way for Xiao Yuanshan to escape.
Gu Chen looked back at Lu Weiwei at the entrance of the cave, and reminded: "Senior Sister Lu, you stay at the entrance of the cave and wait for our news. If there is a situation, we will retreat immediately."
"Understood, then you should also pay attention to safety." The four male police officers from the police station had already entered the secret passage.
Thinking that although Xiao Yuanshan was cunning, he would probably be very difficult to deal with the four policemen.
But Lu Weiwei was most afraid of Xiao Yuanshan, who had some dangerous weapons hidden in his hands, and this was what Lu Weiwei was most worried about.
But even in Longtan and Tiger's Den, for Gu Chen, he can only bite the bullet and continue searching.
It didn't take long for the lights near the entrance of the cave to fade away.
Gu Chen led the team, and everyone bowed their bodies and kept groping forward in this narrow passage.
The slope ahead leads to another narrow passage.
However, at a corner of the narrow passage, Gu Chen found an object resembling a water pipe, and this pipe seemed to lead to the direction of the roof.
"What is this?" Ding Liang seemed to have noticed something tricky, and couldn't help touching it a few times curiously.
"It should be the exhaust pipe." Police officer Wang, who has some experience, also studied for a few seconds before giving his own answer.
Gu Chen confirmed: "That's right, the air in the tunnel here is turbid and the oxygen is weak."
"If Xiao Yuanshan chooses to come in and out from here, then if he runs out of oxygen, he will definitely die here."
"So, this secret passage must also need some exhaust pipes to allow air to circulate."
Looking up at the position above, Gu Chen said again: "Perhaps this exhaust pipe should lead all the way to the roof."
"And here." Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, Huang Zunlong, who was on the far right, seemed to have noticed something tricky, and pointed in the direction of a light source:
"There seems to be a little airy structure here. This weak light source should be the moonlight outside."
"This may be the exit." Gu Chen also looked for a faint light source and quickly approached it.
However, the moment Gu Chen stopped, he suddenly felt the position of his footsteps, and there was a crisp sound of "dong dong".
Gu Chen took a step back and quickly shone the bright flashlight on it.
At this time, Gu Chen realized that the position of his footsteps seemed to be a hollow structure.
Gu Chen took out the mechanical baton, paused on the ground, and struck repeatedly.
"Boom! Boom!"
The hollow crisp sound continued to be heard.
Officer Wang said with great joy: "The bottom is empty, maybe this Xiao Yuanshan is hiding here."
When he stepped forward, Police Officer Wang also yelled, "Xiao Yuanshan, I know you're hiding here, come out quickly."
However, the words fell, but there was no movement underneath, which made Officer Wang quite embarrassed.
So Police Officer Wang justified himself: "Maybe Xiao Yuanshan is not here, there may be a passage here."
"Senior Brother Wang, let me go." Gu Chen pushed Police Officer Wang away and pressed his hands on the ground.
When Gu Chen's finger joints touched an area, he could clearly feel the difference in the concave-convex structure.
So Gu Chen grabbed the protruding part with both hands, and gently lifted the floor up.
Not long after, everyone found another solid board, which was lifted by Gu Chen with both hands.
Seeing this, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong immediately surrounded him and supported Gu Chen's sides.
The three of them easily put the plank to one side.
At this moment, a dark space suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Police officer Wang exclaimed: "My God, there is a secret room here? The secret room in the secret room, where does this go?"
"Uh, looking at the depth, it shouldn't be a passage leading to the underworld, right?" Huang Zunlong said hesitantly.
Ding Liang suddenly said nervously: "Don't...don't talk nonsense, what kind of hell are you going to? This is obviously a secret room, and you will know if you go and have a look."
"Then...then you go." The dark and narrow environment itself was already depressing and scary enough.
But now, in the dark and narrow environment, there is actually a secret passage, which is deeper and smaller.
This made Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong unavoidably fearful.
In various uncertain environments, fear arises as the times require, but this does not bother Gu Chen.
It was also at the same time that Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong were threatening each other, Gu Chen took a bright flashlight and walked down the passage according to the position of the steps.
At this time, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong also stopped arguing at the same time.
Officer Wang lay on the ground and asked softly, "Gu Chen, what did you see?"
"A passage." Gu Chen said.
"How long?" Officer Wang asked again.
"It's hard to say, but the passage has a curve, why don't we go and have a look." Gu Chen said.
Officer Wang's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of fear surged into his heart.
Although he was afraid, Police Officer Wang still pretended to be calm, and couldn't help smiling and said: "Then you wait, I'll come down right away."
After a while, Officer Wang followed Gu Chen's footsteps and went directly to the inside of the passage.
At this moment, everyone realized that the passage seemed to be a little far away, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance.
Moreover, the passage seems to be a curved structure, and because the front is blocked by the corner position, it is impossible to see the approximate direction at all.
But Gu Chen didn't care about this, and let Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, who were a little scared, stay at the entrance of the cave, waiting to meet everyone at any time.
On the other hand, Gu Chen took Police Officer Wang, and the two packed up the strong flashlight and mechanical baton, and walked forward cautiously.
I don't know how long I walked?Gu Chen noticed that there seemed to be some light sources in the distance.
So Gu Chen became more cautious, gradually slowed down, and slowly searched for the light source.
However, when Gu Chen walked to the end of the passage, he discovered that there were some framed light sources around the end of the passage.
Thinking that the passageway exit should be ahead, Gu Chen handed the mechanical baton and bright flashlight to Police Officer Wang behind him.
Then exert strength with both hands and began to push against the wall of the passageway.
After a while, Officer Wang discovered that Gu Chen had already pushed the passage away.
Suddenly a cool breeze hit, and the two felt the air was fresh, and it seemed that the oxygen had begun to increase.
Gu Chen pushed open the hole above his head, only to realize that he appeared in a vegetable field.
The cave door just now is made of some special materials to make camouflage turf.
Judging from the thickness, it should be able to bear the weight of an adult fat man.
Outside the cave door, there are all kinds of soil and weeds.
These are all real substances, used to cover the position of the cave door.
Gu Chen climbed up the ground directly along the simple steps.
At this time, Gu Chen realized that there was a light shining in the distance, which was the light source of the road lights around the village in Fuxing Village.
Gu Chen straightened his body immediately, and visually checked the distance to the street lamp, only to find that it was as much as 40 meters away.
And the position I was in happened to be a slope position.
And the surrounding weeds overgrown, so this site is difficult to find.
Seeing that Gu Chen, who was above him, did not move for a long time, Police Officer Wang simply poked his head out.
Seeing Gu Chen staring blankly into the distance, Police Officer Wang immediately came to Gu Chen's side and followed Gu Chen to observe with curious eyes.
But after a while, Police Officer Wang exclaimed: "Isn't Fuxing Village ahead? How did we get to the suburbs?"
"Could it be that the secret passage in Xiao Yuanshan's house actually leads to the back mountain outside Fuxing Village?"
"That's right." Following Officer Wang's interpretation, Gu Chen also nodded slightly.
Then pointing to the surrounding area, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This Xiao Yuanshan is really an escape ghost."
"On this passage, you can go directly to the outside of the village from your home."
"Even if Fuxing Village is completely surrounded, Xiao Yuanshan can still escape from the back mountain through the tunnel."
"You mean, Xiao Yuanshan seemed to realize something was wrong, so he hurried through his own tunnel and escaped from the back mountain?"
Looking at the vast weeds in the back mountain, Police Officer Wang frowned, feeling that Xiao Yuanshan seemed to be the reincarnation of a fox.
……
The non-stop work in the past few days has made everyone exhausted.
Fortunately, hard work has brought about various breakthroughs in important clues, which naturally doubled everyone's confidence.
Especially after cracking the hacker's deception tricks and finding out the behind-the-scenes personnel who destroyed the monitoring system of the freight center.
This breakthrough directly advances the cause and effect of Xu Ting's killing by a big step forward.
Gu Chen calmed down, and hurriedly said: "Senior Brother He, let Xiao Yuanshan be the focus of the breakthrough now, don't startle the snake for the time being."
"On the one hand, we are monitoring and looking for various traces of Xiao Yuanshan these days."
"On the other hand, dispatch a plainclothes team to keep an eye on Xiao Yuanshan 24 hours a day. This time, Xiao Yuanshan cannot be allowed to escape."
"That's right." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Master Xi couldn't wait to say:
"This time, if we find the briquettes, we will also find the fish that slipped through the Wangxiangu side, and we can catch them all in one go."
Taking a deep breath, Master Xi covered his chest with his hands, as if praying for the safe completion of the task.
He Junchao nodded silently, and echoed, "Leave the monitoring of Xiao Yuanshan's whereabouts to me. I will check Xiao Yuanshan's current activities first, and you can arrange the plainclothes team yourself."
"Plainclothes team, I asked Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong to take people there, they are more experienced in this area." Gu Chen said.
Master Xi nodded silently: "Then do this."
……
……
7 pm.
Office of the Criminal Investigation Squad.
Everyone was reluctant to go to the cafeteria to eat and waste time, so they greeted Master Nie in the cafeteria and asked the auntie in the cafeteria to pack everyone's dinner into lunch boxes.
Then the criminal investigation team sent people to pick it up, and everyone was going to solve the dinner problem in the office.
However, not long after, Nie Xiaoyu walked into the office panting with two bags of lunch boxes.
Seeing everyone sitting around He Junchao, Nie Xiaoyu also called out.
When everyone saw this, they immediately went over to help her get food.
"Xiaoyu, why is it you?" Since Nie Xiaoyu was admitted to university, she rarely appeared in the Furong branch, so Lu Weiwei was quite curious.
Seeing this, Nie Xiaoyu also smiled and said: "Isn't this just going home today? I heard that you ordered some packed lunch boxes. I knew that you must have an important case."
"I thought I didn't need to bother you to come to the cafeteria to pick up the food, so I told my old Nie that I will get your dinner for you."
"Thank you so much." Lu Weiwei quickly took out the lunch boxes and distributed them to everyone in proportion to the meals.
Seeing that Nie Xiaoyu was still carrying her schoolbag, Lu Weiwei asked again: "What's in the bag?"
"Sour plum soup, I just made it in the cafeteria. I put two big bottles in a drink bottle and share it with you."
As soon as Nie Xiaoyu finished speaking, he immediately unloaded the backpack.
Yuan Shasha immediately came over and couldn't help but marvel: "Xiao Yu, you are too polite, aren't you?"
"It should be." Nie Xiaoyu let out a long breath, and said to Police Officer Wang who was grabbing food: "Officer Wang, please bring some disposable paper cups, I will share sour plum soup with you."
"Really? And sour plum soup?" Police officer Wang's eyes lit up when he heard that the dinner was rich enough. He immediately put down the lunch box he had snatched, and ran to the water dispenser in a hurry to get a disposable paper cup from underneath.
Passing by his desk, Police Officer Wang directly picked up his thermos and came directly to Nie Xiaoyu.
Lu Weiwei asked vigilantly: "Old Wang, what do you mean by bringing a thermos?"
"Put sour plum soup, can't you save a paper cup?" Officer Wang swore, feeling that this reason would be too ridiculous?
Lu Weiwei glanced at him, but also exposed the trick and said: "Don't think I don't know, your old king wants to fill your thermos."
"Let me tell you, Xiaoyu has worked so hard to deliver the sour plum soup. Everyone is equal and distributed equally. You old king don't want to eat alone."
"Hey! Look at what you said. If you don't know, you think my old king can't afford it."
Seeing what Lu Weiwei has said, if I fill this thermos by myself, I feel like I'm taking advantage of everyone.
So Police Officer Wang unscrewed the cover, handed it to Nie Xiaoyu and said, "Xiaoyu, you can pretend as you see it."
"Pfft." Seeing that everyone was fighting for sour plum soup, Nie Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing, and quickly poured a full cup of sour plum soup in a large Coke bottle for Police Officer Wang.
Officer Wang was also overjoyed when he saw this, and showed off in front of Lu Weiwei, "Did you see it? Xiaoyu still has a conscience."
"Get lost." Lu Weiwei rolled his eyes at him, so she quickly said softly to Gu Chen, "Junior Brother Gu, let me make you a glass too."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lu." Gu Chen has been carefully analyzing Xiao Yuanshan's movements with He Junchao and Master Xi, but just casually said.
But not long after, Lu Weiwei directly used Gu Chen's thermos and handed the filled sour plum soup to her: "Junior Brother Gu, here it is."
"So much?" Gu Chen was also taken aback for a moment, unscrewed the lid, and took a casual sip.
Seeing this, Nie Xiaoyu leaned over and asked, "Brother Gu Chen, how does it taste?"
"It's great, it's even better than the sour plum soup I drank in the hot pot restaurant." Gu Chen appreciated it.
Nie Xiaoyu was satisfied, and said with a smile, "Isn't that right? This sour plum soup is made by me and my old comrade Nie, with sour plum powder and the best proportion of mineral water. The taste must be authentic."
"Thank you Xiaoyu, thank you for your sour plum soup." After a few words of casual praise, Gu Chen continued to take a sip, then hurried back to the computer and continued to stare at Xiao Yuanshan's movements.
Nie Xiaoyu originally wanted to hear a few more compliments from Gu Chen, but Gu Chen's compliment seemed short and quick, which made Nie Xiaoyu quite disappointed.
But at the same time, he hurriedly asked Officer Wang: "Officer Wang, are you investigating a big case? Even Lord Xi is dispatched?"
"Isn't that so? This case is extraordinary. We've already spent too much time, and the suspect is very cunning. If we can't find the suspect's evidence this time, Bureau Zhao will probably have to hang us up and use us as sandbags to vent our anger. "
"Is it so serious?" Hearing Officer Wang's alarmist words, and seeing Gu Chen's concentration on his work, Nie Xiaoyu also let out a long sigh:
"It seems to be another sleepless night. If you need supper or something, feel free to talk to our cafeteria. We will be on duty late in the cafeteria tonight."
Seeing that everyone was devouring it, it seemed that they were not listening to themselves at all.
Nie Xiaoyu let out a long sigh, walked directly beside Gu Chen, took out two tea eggs from his pocket, put them on Gu Chen's desk, turned and left.
There was a sound of chewing and chewing, and everyone enjoyed a different kind of dinner like a starved ghost reincarnated.
After 15 minutes, everyone finished eating.
Only then did Gu Chen pat He Junchao on the shoulder, signaling He Junchao to go eat first, and follow the whereabouts by himself.
It can be said that the current Xiao Yuanshan has been stared to death in Fuxing Village by the plainclothes team led by Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong.
Everyone was guarding different intersections. In order to observe Xiao Yuanshan at close range, many people even received high-powered binoculars from the police equipment warehouse.
On the other hand, Gu Chen, with the cooperation of He Junchao, gradually pieced together Xiao Yuanshan's various whereabouts these days.
It can be said that on the night Xu Ting was killed, Xiao Yuanshan also left Fuxing Village in the middle of the night.
And in terms of time, Xiao Yuanshan arrived near the storage center first.
And that deck car is the best evidence.
It can be seen from the monitoring that Xiao Yuanshan usually drives to a hidden location first, and then completes the replacement of the license plate in the blind spot of the monitoring.
In the subsequent whereabouts, Xiao Yuanshan will change various clothes to conduct anti-reconnaissance.
He even put on a white wig and pretended to be an uncle, deliberately concealing his age.
But even so, this kind of trick may be able to hide it for a while from the eyes of ordinary people.
However, under the strict investigation of Gu Chen's team, taking Xiao Yuanshan as a specific target, it is still very easy to find Xiao Yuanshan's disguised appearance through the investigation method.
"It's here." Gu Chen tapped the screen, confirming, "Xiao Yuanshan hid his camouflage clothes in this area. I guess it's somewhere in the old alley here."
"Do you need to send someone to investigate?" Master Xi asked while eating.
Gu Chen silently nodded: "Let Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe do it."
"Understood." Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe, who had just finished their meal, heard Gu Chen's order, immediately put away the lunch box, and hurried over to check the location.
Gu Chen clicked on the map, and after confirming the location, he explained to the two of them: "This place, let me check it out."
"Because of this Xiao Yuanshan, every time he appears in this surveillance blind spot, his license plate number will change, and his clothes will also change."
"You can focus on investigating in this alley..."
After the words fell, Gu Chen showed some of the surveillance pictures that were retrieved in front of Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe, reminding him:
"The key point is these clothes. When Xiao Yuanshan was in Fuxing Village, he usually wore black clothes."
"But after changing his license plate outside and disguising his identity, he usually wears either white or blue clothes, which are the clothes in the picture."
"After you find it, immediately send it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau, and hand it over to the team of forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng, so that they can extract various clues from the clothing and prepare for the investigation of Xiao Yuanshan later."
"Understood." Wu Xiaofeng, who understood Gu Chen's meaning, immediately nodded and confirmed, "We'll go there now."
"Be careful." Gu Chen said.
After a brief communication between the two groups, Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe quickly left the office and disappeared at the end of the aisle.
On the other side, Ding Liang, who was lurking outside Fuxing Village, also happened to call.
Without further ado, Gu Chen pressed the answer button and asked, "Ding Liang, how is the situation on your end?"
"It's very strange, this Xiao Yuanshan seems to be staying at home all the time, and there is no sign of going out."
"It's best not to go out." When Gu Chen got the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"We have now asked other teams to focus on investigating some clues about Xiao Yuanshan."
"Your task is to stay firmly in Fuxing Village and closely monitor Xiao Yuanshan's movements. You must not let him have another chance to escape."
"After we complete the evidence collection work here, we can arrest people immediately."
"Don't worry." With Gu Chen's explanation, Ding Liang also confirmed and said:
"My brothers and I will just stare here, so that Xiao Yuanshan won't have the possibility of escaping."
"It's fine with your words." Hearing Ding Liang's reply, Gu Chen felt relieved.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen has already completed various investigations on Xiao Yuanshan in the recent period, and collected a lot of strange movements of Xiao Yuanshan in total.
The most direct way is to change the license plate number in the monitoring blind spot.
There are also disguised as old people, changing clothes of different colors.
These camouflage techniques are indeed difficult to distinguish the real from the fake in front of ordinary people, but Gu Chen's team has solid experience in handling cases.
For some disguise techniques, everyone can even be Xiao Yuanshan's teacher.
So after eating a simple dinner, everyone began to be on standby.
……
……
At 10:20 in the evening, Wu Xiaofeng, who was carrying out a search mission outside, suddenly called.
Without further ado, Gu Chen pressed the answer button and asked, "Xiao Wu, how is the situation?"
"Senior Brother Gu, as expected, we found in the old alley here, there is an old house, the door lock is very new, but there are some sundries piled inside."
"Later, we inquired from the surrounding residents and heard that the room in this old house was rented out to store some sundries."
"When asked about the tenants, the answers given by the local residents are basically in line with Xiao Yuanshan's appearance and characteristics."
"Didn't you sign any rental agreement?" Gu Chen asked.
Wu Xiaofeng denied it with a smile: "That's not true, because the old house is very dilapidated and the rent is not much, so after the landlord negotiated with the tenant, the tenant paid the money directly and wrote a rental contract by hand."
"Anyway, this old house is still on the shelf. It can be rented out, and the rent will be charged a month, which is not bad for the landlord."
"What's more, there are still some messy items piled up in the old house, and the landlord doesn't care."
"However, from what the landlord said, we can be sure that this person may be Xiao Yuanshan."
"Then have you entered the house yet?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Entered the house." Wu Xiaofeng quickly replied: "Because we explained the situation to the landlord, the landlord gave us a key and let us enter the house to search."
"Sure enough, we found a set of white clothes and a set of blue clothes in the room, as well as a white wig, and some other matching accessories."
"It can be said that these are Xiao Yuanshan's disguise props, and now we have confiscated them according to law."
"If necessary, we can take it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau at any time and hand it over to forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng."
"Okay, you can go to the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau now and bring these evidences." Gu Chen said.
"Understood, then Senior Brother Gu, do you have anything else to say?" Wu Xiaofeng paused for a few seconds, then hurriedly asked again.
"Not yet. I will immediately ask the plainclothes team lurking near Fuxing Village to carry out the arrest mission."
"If all goes well, we will meet at the gate of the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau."
"Okay, then we will meet at the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau."
After a brief communication, both parties hung up the phone together.
Afterwards, Gu Chen called Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong's team on the outskirts of Fuxing Village, ordering them to arrest Xiao Yuanshan immediately.
Everyone sat in the office, quietly waiting for the result of the arrest.
However, after half an hour passed, Gu Chen's mobile phone on the table did not ring for a long time, which gave Gu Chen an ominous premonition.
He thought that under the circumstances of conclusive evidence, the arrest of Xiao Yuanshan would take at most ten minutes.
But now half an hour has passed, but there has been no response to the phone call.
Officer Wang who was sitting on the side couldn't help complaining: "What are Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong doing? Why haven't they responded yet? Will something go wrong?"
Master Xi glanced at Gu Chen, crossed his arms and asked, "Gu Chen, why don't you call and ask?"
"Okay." Feeling that there is no way to wait any longer, Gu Chen picked up the mobile phone on the table and dialed it directly.
After a while, the call was connected, but it was Ding Liang's frustrated response: "Gu Chen, we... we screwed up."
"What's the situation?" Gu Chen hurriedly asked when he heard that the situation was not good.
"Xiao Yuanshan ran away." Ding Liang said.
"What did you say? Xiao Yuanshan ran away? Haven't you been staring at Xiao Yuanshan? Why did you let him run away? What's going on?"
Feeling that there was no phone call just now, Gu Chen had an ominous premonition.
But now it seems that my premonition was right, and there was still a flaw in the arrest operation.
Ding Liang couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the truth: "The situation is like this. We have been monitoring Xiao Yuanshan's home from the outside."
"Because there are surveillance cameras everywhere around Fuxing Village, we dare not get close. We can only monitor Xiao Yuanshan according to the surveillance deployment map you provided, and focus on the peripheral areas of the surveillance blind spots."
"Before we saw that the lights were always on in Xiao Yuanshan's house, because we knew that Xiao Yuanshan lived alone, so we thought that as long as the lights were on, he should be at home."
"Moreover, we are still in the peripheral area, and we have found Xiao Yuanshan with the window open."
"Thinking about it, arresting Xiao Yuanshan is a sure thing."
"Then what happened later?" Hearing Ding Liang's words, Gu Chen knew that something went wrong in the process.
Ding Liang also looked frustrated, and sighed: "Who would know later? This Xiao Yuanshan disappeared out of thin air."
"We searched all the upstairs and downstairs of his house, but there was no one there."
"Could this Xiao Yuanshan really disappear out of thin air? Or, your monitoring is sloppy..."
"No, absolutely not." At the same time when Gu Chen questioned, Huang Zunlong on the side quickly denied the words, saying:
"Gu Chen, our plainclothes team is monitoring the front and back doors of Xiao Yuanshan's home without any blind spots."
"And there are colleagues on duty to observe all the time, as long as Xiao Yuanshan goes out, we can find out."
"But the point is, from the beginning to the end, we didn't find out that Xiao Yuanshan had left the house. He couldn't have gone out."
"But when we thought we could arrest Xiao Yuanshan and bring him to justice immediately, Xiao Yuanshan disappeared without a trace. It was like seeing a ghost, disappearing out of thin air."
"Let's do this." Seeing that Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong were staying at the scene of Fuxing Village, it seemed that they couldn't solve the current problem at all.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, and also explained: "You protect the scene well, and I will bring people over to support you."
"Okay, then we will wait for you in Fuxing Village."
The two sides also communicated briefly, and then hung up the phone together.
Unlike the communication with Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe just now, the communication with Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong gave Gu Chen a headache.
Logically speaking, everything is going according to plan.
Originally, the work of collecting evidence had been basically completed, and Xiao Yuanshan could be arrested soon.
But at a critical moment, Xiao Yuanshan disappeared from his home.
This made Gu Chen a little confused, and didn't know what was going on at the scene?
Thinking that Xiao Yuanshan might be his eyes everywhere for the entire Fuxing Village.
When necessary, He Junchao can also use the monitoring system purchased by Fuxing Village to investigate Xiao Yuanshan's whereabouts.
So Gu Chen called other police officers including He Junchao, and went to Fuxing Village to find out.
……
……
When Gu Chen and the others drove to the scene of Fuxing Village, Ding Liang, who was guarding the intersection, immediately took Gu Chen and the others who got off the car, and went straight to Xiao Yuanshan's home, explaining the situation to Gu Chen and the others while walking.
When he came to the living room, Ding Liang said helplessly, "This is the situation. Although the front and rear doors of Xiao Yuanshan's house are not locked."
"But we have searched many times, but we couldn't find any trace of Xiao Yuanshan."
"This guy, it's like disappearing out of thin air." Huang Zunlong also walked over and said.
Gu Chen looked around and shook his head: "No, if you see with your own eyes that Xiao Yuanshan is at home, then he can't disappear from your eyes."
"The only possibility is that Xiao Yuanshan is still in the house, just hiding in a hidden corner and not being discovered by you."
"However, we have searched Xiao Yuanshan's house several times, inside and out, but we haven't found any place to hide him." A trainee policeman also complained.
Gu Chen didn't talk nonsense, turned his head to look at He Junchao beside him, and said, "Senior Brother He, take someone with you to the monitoring room of the villagers' committee in Fuxing Village."
"Check all the monitoring tonight, and see if this Xiao Yuanshan has left the house tonight."
"If there is, then the monitoring of Fuxing Village will definitely be able to catch it."
"I understand." After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Junchao immediately called the trainee policeman and accompanied him.
Afterwards, Gu Chen glanced at Lord Xi, Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha again, and said:
"Then, let's search Xiao Yuanshan's house again to see if there are any new discoveries?"
"Okay, you can do whatever you want." Master Xi also sighed softly, looking left and right with his hands on his hips.
Originally, everyone thought that they had the chance to win, and they thought they could catch Xiao Yuanshan at home under the premise of having evidence.
But now it seems that everyone's wishful thinking seems to have come to nothing.
Xiao Yuanshan disappeared, as if he disappeared right under everyone's noses.
So, everyone started to act in groups and started another search for Xiao Yuanshan's home.
Time soon came to the early morning, and a call from He Junchao came from the monitoring room of the village committee committee.
"Gu Chen, I have investigated all the surveillance cameras in Fuxing Village tonight, especially near Xiao Yuanshan's house, and found no movement of Xiao Yuanshan going out."
"So I judge that Xiao Yuanshan should still be hiding at home now, you should look for it carefully."
"Understood." Upon receiving He Junchao's reply, Gu Chen also sighed softly.
It feels like things are getting complicated.
Since the investigation tonight was a bit noisy, many names of Fuxing Village wanted to come and join in the fun, but they were advised by the police to stay at home and not go out without authorization.
After checking on the first floor for a while, Gu Chen came to the kitchen and found that there seemed to be some traces of friction between the kitchen closet and the wall.
Even the surrounding dust seemed to show signs of being scratched.
This made Gu Chen a little curious, and Dang even squatted down to check the kitchen closet.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei hurried to Gu Chen's side and asked, "Junior Brother Gu, what did you find?"
"There seems to be something wrong here." Gu Chen knocked on the closet a few times, and then opened the closet door.
I saw all kinds of tableware in the kitchen closet.
Ding Liang walked to Gu Chen's side and reminded him, "We have checked here."
"Then, have you noticed that in the corner of the closet, there are some dusty parts in a regular shape?" Gu Chen also cut to the chase, pointing out the problem.
"Regular shape?" Ding Liang was a little puzzled, and couldn't help looking at Huang Zunlong beside him.
Huang Zunlong was also a little confused, so he asked Gu Chen directly, "Gu Chen, just say what you want?"
"The dust on the ground has obvious traces of being rubbed." Gu Chen, who was wearing white gloves, first pointed out the traces he found with his hands.
Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong looked at each other, and hurried forward to find out.
But after a while, the two suddenly realized.
Huang Zunlong was also incredulous: "So, Gu Chen, do you think there is something wrong with this closet?"
"Let's see if there is any problem." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he stood up directly.
Afterwards, Gu Chen grabbed the corner of the closet with both hands and began to exert force with both hands.
Soon, the closet that was originally fixed on the wall suddenly started to move backwards.
Gu Chen easily moved the closet back a certain distance, so he continued to exert strength.
After a while, the entire closet was instantly dented inward.
At the same time, a tiny door was revealed on the side wall.
Yuan Shasha on the side was stunned and said, "My God! Is this a secret room?"
"I'll go take a look." Seeing this, Lu Weiwei wanted to go over to check what happened, but was quickly stopped by Gu Chen.
"Senior Sister Lu, don't move yet." Gu Chen grabbed Lu Weiwei, pulled her back, and then took out the bright flashlight, shining it on the small door on the side.
Seeing that there was no movement in the cave, Gu Chen took out his mobile phone again, turned on the light of the mobile phone, and turned on the camera function.
I saw Gu Chen aiming the camera of his mobile phone at the entrance of the cave, slowly approaching the inside, and then turning around.
It was also after some operations that Gu Chen took back the phone and continued to click the play button.
Soon, everyone gathered together to observe Gu Chen's shooting.
It was only then that everyone was surprised to find that the small hole in the wall actually had a hole in it.
In addition to the position of the cave entrance and some concrete floors, there is actually a slope structure in another part of the cave.
And because the end of the slope was just in a blind spot, Gu Chen couldn't photograph the specific situation below the slope.
At the end of the playback, Gu Chen sighed faintly and said, "Xiao Yuanshan is probably hiding inside, no wonder he disappeared under your noses, now you need to go into the cave to check."
"I'll go." Ding Liang said.
Gu Chen grabbed him and said, "Let me come, you all follow me."
"Junior Brother Gu, be careful, maybe this Xiao Yuanshan is hiding in the dark, be careful that he is not good for you." Seeing that Gu Chen insisted on going in, Lu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat, with unspeakable nervousness and worry.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, smiled lightly, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, this hole is not too small, it's not difficult to get in, I'll pay attention."
"Gu Chen, go ahead and check the surrounding situation. If there is no problem, we will arrive later." Master Xi said.
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Understood."
Afterwards, Gu Chen put the bright flashlight into the secret room first, and got in flexibly.
The entrance of the secret room is equivalent to a one-third the size of the door space, and it is not difficult for Gu Chen's stature to enter the hole.
Also after getting into this small space, Gu Chen immediately picked up the strong flashlight on the ground and pointed it at the slope in front of him.
However, there was not much abnormality in the direction of the slope, so Gu Chen waved to the hole behind him.
Then, Police Officer Wang, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong entered the secret passage one after another.
The four quickly lined up, holding mechanical batons as defense.
Lu Weiwei, who was about to enter the cave, asked curiously, "How's the situation inside?"
"It's strange." Officer Wang squinted his eyes to observe, and said indifferently: "Where does the slope in front lead to? It feels like a big space."
"Let's go and have a look." Gu Chen didn't know the specific structure, but felt that the building was too weird.
It seems that from the very beginning, Xiao Yuanshan wanted to use this place as a storage area for certain items.
In the entire secret passage, the air is extremely turbid, giving people a very bad experience.
Fortunately, everyone wears a mask, but it still smells bad.
But Xiao Yuanshan disappeared from the house after all, and from the current point of view, only this secret passage is the only way for Xiao Yuanshan to escape.
Gu Chen looked back at Lu Weiwei at the entrance of the cave, and reminded: "Senior Sister Lu, you stay at the entrance of the cave and wait for our news. If there is a situation, we will retreat immediately."
"Understood, then you should also pay attention to safety." The four male police officers from the police station had already entered the secret passage.
Thinking that although Xiao Yuanshan was cunning, he would probably be very difficult to deal with the four policemen.
But Lu Weiwei was most afraid of Xiao Yuanshan, who had some dangerous weapons hidden in his hands, and this was what Lu Weiwei was most worried about.
But even in Longtan and Tiger's Den, for Gu Chen, he can only bite the bullet and continue searching.
It didn't take long for the lights near the entrance of the cave to fade away.
Gu Chen led the team, and everyone bowed their bodies and kept groping forward in this narrow passage.
The slope ahead leads to another narrow passage.
However, at a corner of the narrow passage, Gu Chen found an object resembling a water pipe, and this pipe seemed to lead to the direction of the roof.
"What is this?" Ding Liang seemed to have noticed something tricky, and couldn't help touching it a few times curiously.
"It should be the exhaust pipe." Police officer Wang, who has some experience, also studied for a few seconds before giving his own answer.
Gu Chen confirmed: "That's right, the air in the tunnel here is turbid and the oxygen is weak."
"If Xiao Yuanshan chooses to come in and out from here, then if he runs out of oxygen, he will definitely die here."
"So, this secret passage must also need some exhaust pipes to allow air to circulate."
Looking up at the position above, Gu Chen said again: "Perhaps this exhaust pipe should lead all the way to the roof."
"And here." Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, Huang Zunlong, who was on the far right, seemed to have noticed something tricky, and pointed in the direction of a light source:
"There seems to be a little airy structure here. This weak light source should be the moonlight outside."
"This may be the exit." Gu Chen also looked for a faint light source and quickly approached it.
However, the moment Gu Chen stopped, he suddenly felt the position of his footsteps, and there was a crisp sound of "dong dong".
Gu Chen took a step back and quickly shone the bright flashlight on it.
At this time, Gu Chen realized that the position of his footsteps seemed to be a hollow structure.
Gu Chen took out the mechanical baton, paused on the ground, and struck repeatedly.
"Boom! Boom!"
The hollow crisp sound continued to be heard.
Officer Wang said with great joy: "The bottom is empty, maybe this Xiao Yuanshan is hiding here."
When he stepped forward, Police Officer Wang also yelled, "Xiao Yuanshan, I know you're hiding here, come out quickly."
However, the words fell, but there was no movement underneath, which made Officer Wang quite embarrassed.
So Police Officer Wang justified himself: "Maybe Xiao Yuanshan is not here, there may be a passage here."
"Senior Brother Wang, let me go." Gu Chen pushed Police Officer Wang away and pressed his hands on the ground.
When Gu Chen's finger joints touched an area, he could clearly feel the difference in the concave-convex structure.
So Gu Chen grabbed the protruding part with both hands, and gently lifted the floor up.
Not long after, everyone found another solid board, which was lifted by Gu Chen with both hands.
Seeing this, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong immediately surrounded him and supported Gu Chen's sides.
The three of them easily put the plank to one side.
At this moment, a dark space suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Police officer Wang exclaimed: "My God, there is a secret room here? The secret room in the secret room, where does this go?"
"Uh, looking at the depth, it shouldn't be a passage leading to the underworld, right?" Huang Zunlong said hesitantly.
Ding Liang suddenly said nervously: "Don't...don't talk nonsense, what kind of hell are you going to? This is obviously a secret room, and you will know if you go and have a look."
"Then...then you go." The dark and narrow environment itself was already depressing and scary enough.
But now, in the dark and narrow environment, there is actually a secret passage, which is deeper and smaller.
This made Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong unavoidably fearful.
In various uncertain environments, fear arises as the times require, but this does not bother Gu Chen.
It was also at the same time that Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong were threatening each other, Gu Chen took a bright flashlight and walked down the passage according to the position of the steps.
At this time, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong also stopped arguing at the same time.
Officer Wang lay on the ground and asked softly, "Gu Chen, what did you see?"
"A passage." Gu Chen said.
"How long?" Officer Wang asked again.
"It's hard to say, but the passage has a curve, why don't we go and have a look." Gu Chen said.
Officer Wang's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of fear surged into his heart.
Although he was afraid, Police Officer Wang still pretended to be calm, and couldn't help smiling and said: "Then you wait, I'll come down right away."
After a while, Officer Wang followed Gu Chen's footsteps and went directly to the inside of the passage.
At this moment, everyone realized that the passage seemed to be a little far away, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance.
Moreover, the passage seems to be a curved structure, and because the front is blocked by the corner position, it is impossible to see the approximate direction at all.
But Gu Chen didn't care about this, and let Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, who were a little scared, stay at the entrance of the cave, waiting to meet everyone at any time.
On the other hand, Gu Chen took Police Officer Wang, and the two packed up the strong flashlight and mechanical baton, and walked forward cautiously.
I don't know how long I walked?Gu Chen noticed that there seemed to be some light sources in the distance.
So Gu Chen became more cautious, gradually slowed down, and slowly searched for the light source.
However, when Gu Chen walked to the end of the passage, he discovered that there were some framed light sources around the end of the passage.
Thinking that the passageway exit should be ahead, Gu Chen handed the mechanical baton and bright flashlight to Police Officer Wang behind him.
Then exert strength with both hands and began to push against the wall of the passageway.
After a while, Officer Wang discovered that Gu Chen had already pushed the passage away.
Suddenly a cool breeze hit, and the two felt the air was fresh, and it seemed that the oxygen had begun to increase.
Gu Chen pushed open the hole above his head, only to realize that he appeared in a vegetable field.
The cave door just now is made of some special materials to make camouflage turf.
Judging from the thickness, it should be able to bear the weight of an adult fat man.
Outside the cave door, there are all kinds of soil and weeds.
These are all real substances, used to cover the position of the cave door.
Gu Chen climbed up the ground directly along the simple steps.
At this time, Gu Chen realized that there was a light shining in the distance, which was the light source of the road lights around the village in Fuxing Village.
Gu Chen straightened his body immediately, and visually checked the distance to the street lamp, only to find that it was as much as 40 meters away.
And the position I was in happened to be a slope position.
And the surrounding weeds overgrown, so this site is difficult to find.
Seeing that Gu Chen, who was above him, did not move for a long time, Police Officer Wang simply poked his head out.
Seeing Gu Chen staring blankly into the distance, Police Officer Wang immediately came to Gu Chen's side and followed Gu Chen to observe with curious eyes.
But after a while, Police Officer Wang exclaimed: "Isn't Fuxing Village ahead? How did we get to the suburbs?"
"Could it be that the secret passage in Xiao Yuanshan's house actually leads to the back mountain outside Fuxing Village?"
"That's right." Following Officer Wang's interpretation, Gu Chen also nodded slightly.
Then pointing to the surrounding area, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This Xiao Yuanshan is really an escape ghost."
"On this passage, you can go directly to the outside of the village from your home."
"Even if Fuxing Village is completely surrounded, Xiao Yuanshan can still escape from the back mountain through the tunnel."
"You mean, Xiao Yuanshan seemed to realize something was wrong, so he hurried through his own tunnel and escaped from the back mountain?"
Looking at the vast weeds in the back mountain, Police Officer Wang frowned, feeling that Xiao Yuanshan seemed to be the reincarnation of a fox.
