I am a super cop
Chapter 2006 Conviction [2 in 1 Chapter]
Chapter 2006 Previous Convicts 【Two Chapters in One】
In the duty room, the two parties looked at each other, and the middle-aged worker was the first to ask, "Comrade police, are you looking for me?"
"Sit down." Gu Chen signaled the worker to sit down first, and then asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Zhou Liang, and I'm the warehouse manager of the freight yard." Zhou Liang walked to the water dispenser familiarly, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it on his own.
Only then did Gu Chen explain the reason, and said, "That's right, Mr. Zhou, I heard that in your Binjiang freight yard, someone disappeared strangely back then. Is there such a thing?"
Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhou Liang, who was still drinking water just now, suddenly froze.
The paper cup in his mouth froze there.
"Mr. Zhou." Seeing that Zhou Liang overreacted, Gu Chen reminded him.
"Oh." Zhou Liang quickly put down the paper cup, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can beside him. Then he asked Gu Chen curiously:
"Comrade police, it's been such a long time, why do you suddenly ask about it?"
"Could it be that you have found the worker who disappeared that year?"
"We..." Lu Weiwei was about to say that we had found it, but was stopped by Gu Chen's hand.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei could only hesitate to speak.
But Gu Chen continued to ask: "You answer my question first, do you have any?"
Zhou Liang seemed a little dazed, but he still nodded and admitted: "Yes, there was indeed a worker who disappeared suddenly while working the night shift, and has never been heard from since then."
"You explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly."
Gu Chen casually found a duty list on the table, used the back as a record, and took out a writing pen from his body.
Lu Weiwei took out the law enforcement recorder, turned it on, and pointed it at Zhou Liang.
When the middle-aged leader saw this situation, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked weakly, "Then...the police comrade, should I avoid it?"
"No need." Gu Chen said.
"I... I'd better avoid it for a while." Feeling a little embarrassed to stay here, the middle-aged leader made another excuse and said:
"I want to have a cigarette."
"That's fine." Lu Weiwei saw that the middle-aged leader seemed unwilling to stay here.
The main reason is that the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
So the middle-aged man walked out of the duty room, lit a cigarette at the door, and smoked it.
In the room, Gu Chen continued to urge Zhou Liang to explain the situation that year clearly as soon as possible.
Due to the long time span, Zhou Liang was also in the process of thinking, and gradually pieced together the original memories.
"I remember that the missing person is called Zou Ping. He is a foreigner and looks strong."
"He hasn't read any books, but he has a lot of strength, so in our Binjiang freight yard, he is mainly engaged in some unloading work."
"Are you familiar with this person?" Gu Chen asked.
Zhou Liang shook his head: "I'm not very familiar with him, because we all work in the same unit, so I occasionally talk to him."
"Because he always speaks with a foreign accent, and his Mandarin is not very good, it is a bit difficult to communicate with him."
"But this person has a good personality and is generous. When he meets an acquaintance, he will pass you a cigarette if he has nothing to do."
After a pause, Zhou Liang continued to recall and said: "I also smoked his cigarettes. Although they are cheap, they can be regarded as a kindness."
"Then how did he disappear later? Can you explain in detail?" Gu Chen continued to listen to Zhou Liang's explanation while recording.
Zhou Liang nodded silently, and said slowly: "I remember, it was Zouping's turn to be on the night shift that day."
"Speaking of the night shift, it actually means going out at a certain time of night, usually once an hour."
"The main thing is to check around the freight yard to see if there are any abnormalities, and to beware of some petty theft."
"Because we stack containers in Binjiang Freight Yard, so there are generally few problems."
"However, we still pile up some scattered goods here, which need to be checked regularly."
"I remember that day, it seemed that I was the one who took over from him."
"When will you take over the shift?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Well... usually at 7 o'clock in the morning, I come to work, and then he gets off work." Zhou Liang said.
"What happened that day? When you came to take over, Zou Ping disappeared, right?" Gu Chen asked.
"Almost." Zhou Liang raised his head to think, and said thoughtfully, "When I came to the duty room, I didn't see Zou Ping."
"Generally speaking, when I come to take over, he usually sleeps in the duty room."
"But I didn't see him that day. I thought he was out shopping, so I didn't care about it."
"How do you judge that he went out to buy things instead of going home?" Gu Chen continued to raise his doubts while recording.
Zhou Liang thought for a moment, and then quickly explained: "His cigarettes and lighters were still left in the duty room at that time, but this guy never leaves his cigarettes."
"So just from this point of view, I think he is only going out temporarily, and he will definitely come to get cigarettes when he comes back."
"Besides, he is a foreigner, so he lives in the staff dormitory near our Binjiang freight yard, while I live at home."
"But then I couldn't get in touch with Zou Ping, because the handover required handing over the keys, but Zou Ping took the keys of many places with him."
"So I kept calling, but Zouping's phone was always turned off."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Liang also sighed and said, "So, I have no choice but to call the leader, and the leader told us to look for someone everywhere."
"It's strange to say that we searched the entire freight yard, but there was no trace of Zou Ping."
"It's not that you wait a little longer." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei couldn't help being curious, and continued to ask: "Don't you have surveillance cameras installed in your warehouse?"
"Uh, it's a coincidence." Zhou Liang thought back for a moment, and continued:
"In the past, our Binjiang cargo yard was relatively deserted, and most of them were containers, so there were no cameras installed."
"And these cameras were only installed after Zou Ping disappeared, so we don't know where he went."
"I just remember that the leader said that day that Zou Ping might have accidentally fallen into the river during a night patrol and was washed away by the river."
"Otherwise, we can't explain why such a good-looking person suddenly disappeared?"
"So? You started searching Jiang?" Gu Chen asked.
Zhou Liang nodded silently: "Other than that, we have no other choice. After all, this good-looking person just disappeared in the warehouse. The leader is a little flustered."
"So, they contacted the Blue Sky Rescue Team and used multiple kayaks to search the lower reaches of the river."
"Anyway, I remember that I searched and rescued for a few days, but I didn't find any traces. In the end, I had no choice but to let it go."
"Then he doesn't have a family?" Lu Weiwei felt that Zou Ping's identity was a bit strange when she heard the explanation from the middle-aged leader.
But now it seems that it is really the case.
But Zhou Liang was very nervous, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Gu Chen saw the problem, and asked weakly, "Mr. Zhou, where is Zou Ping's family?"
"Zou...Zou Ping, he...he seems to have no family."
"What do you mean? Could it be that he jumped out of a pile of rocks?" Lu Weiwei was puzzled.
But Zhou Liang continued to explain: "Because the mysterious disappearance of Zou Ping in our freight yard made the leader a little embarrassed."
"Because this freight yard was contracted by a private person, so if the leader can't find the person, the above will treat it as missing."
"After all, disappearance and death are completely different in nature. If Zouping's family members come to make a fuss, then our warehouse will definitely have to give a sum of compensation."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Liang said again: "But those unscrupulous bosses above, let us not contact Zou Ping's family members, and don't call the police."
"Because no one was found, there was no way to say whether he was dead or alive."
"Even if Zou Ping's family members come here, the higher-ups will use the disappearance as an excuse and deal with it accordingly."
"After all, if a person is drowned, the body must be found."
"But it has been several years, and there is no news about the corpse at all."
"It's not that you wait a little longer." Hearing Zhou Liang say this, Gu Chen suddenly reached out to interrupt.
Zhou Liang hesitated, and asked weakly, "What... what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say that Zou Ping is usually popular? Has no one contacted Zou Ping's family in these years?"
"This one……"
It seemed that Gu Chen asked about the vitals, Zhou Liang was a little embarrassed, but he took the initiative to explain: "That's right, comrade policeman."
"Because the superiors told us not to care about it, and we usually have a good relationship with Zou Ping, but Zou Ping's cell phone can't be found, so it's simply unrealistic to contact his family."
"Besides, Zou Ping must have been working in our Binjiang freight yard for half a year, but he never mentioned his family."
"Not only that, Zou Ping should have mentioned to his family that he worked in our Binjiang freight yard, but he didn't, which made us very curious."
"I wonder why he, Zouping, has no family? And after he disappeared, almost no one came to look for him."
"It's as if this person suddenly appeared beside you and then disappeared suddenly. In this world, there are almost no people who seem to be related to him."
After a pause, Zhou Liang took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and seemed to remember something?So he quickly said:
"Oh, by the way, there is another reason. Zou Ping is a foreigner, so we don't know the situation of his family very well."
"Okay." Hearing this, Gu Chen almost recorded it.
Basic information has also been recorded.
But for now, Gu Chen still doesn't know what the so-called Zou Ping actually looks like?What is the ID number?
So Gu Chen asked Zhou Liang again: "His photo, and his ID card records, do you have them here?"
"Uh, this..." Zhou Liang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't seem to have one here, but you can go to the administration department of Binjiang Freight Yard, which also handles personnel matters."
"It stands to reason that there should be records, because each of our employees has relevant certificate records when they come to work here, but we have to wait until tomorrow to go to work."
"Okay." After getting the clue, Gu Chen basically had a general understanding of Zou Ping.
At this moment, Gu Chen's cell phone rang suddenly. Gu Chen saw that the caller was Gao Chuanfeng, and immediately swiped the answer button.
"Gu Chen, we have arrived at the scene, your situation is a bit complicated."
As soon as the phone was connected, Gu Chen heard He Junchao's little complaint.
Indeed, a corpse that had been decomposing for a long time suddenly needed to be dug out from the ground of the dilapidated room, which really tested the skills of the forensic team.
It's not an exaggeration to say archeology.
Not only does it need to excavate the corpse intact, but it also needs to clean up the many corrosive substances on the surface of the corpse.
For Gao Chuanfeng's team, this was enough reason for him to call and complain.
Since Forensic Liu was recently invited by a university in the provincial capital to give a lecture, there was obviously not enough manpower in the testing room of the city bureau.
Gao Chuanfeng felt that it was impossible to sleep tonight, and just digging up the corpse was enough trouble.
Gu Chen signaled to Lu Weiwei to help with the finishing work, while he walked out of the duty room with the phone in hand.
At this moment, the middle-aged leader who was at the door had long since disappeared, so Gu Chen simply answered the call from outside the door:
"Gao Chuanfeng, work hard tonight and dig out that corpse."
"I know that this is really difficult for your team, but didn't Senior Brother Wang communicate with you on the phone before? He also explained the specific situation."
"Don't." Before Gu Chen finished speaking, Gao Chuanfeng retorted directly:
"Your Senior Brother Wang is really good enough. He only told me on the phone that in the No. 2 warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard, he found a corpse buried in the ground, and asked our team to bring the tools and get the corpse out. "
"At first I thought it was a complete corpse, but now when I arrived at the scene, I realized that I was still young. Is this called exhumation? Is this called archaeology?"
Seeing Gao Chuanfeng on the other end of the phone chattering endlessly, Gu Chen also chuckled twice, and quickly comforted:
"Don't worry, I know this corpse is quite difficult to dig up, but you guys are professionals. If it doesn't work, I'll let Senior Brother Wang and Xiao Yuan help you."
"Anyway, this person must be dug out, and his true identity must be identified."
"Because a mysterious woman told us the specific location of this corpse, and I still have to find a way to find that woman."
"Okay, okay." Seeing Gu Chen's various explanations, Gao Chuanfeng also let out a long sigh, and said indifferently:
"Forget it, who told me to be a professional? You ask Comrade Wang and Xiao Yuan to help me. Besides, if you are busy, you can go to your own work."
"Okay, I see. After the corpse is processed, transfer it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau as soon as possible."
"The handling of the case on my side will also be advanced simultaneously, and the cooperation of your forensic team will be needed at that time."
"Understood, let's do it like this." Gao Chuanfeng is also having a big head at the moment, feeling that he is a forensic doctor who has become a regular, and he will become an archaeologist in an instant.
As soon as Gu Chen hung up the phone, Lu Weiwei came out of the duty room.
Seeing Gu Chen, he also reminded him: "Zhou Liang has already explained all the clues that should be explained."
"But I've already told him that as soon as I go to work tomorrow, the staff of their administration department will send me the information about Zouping directly by email."
"Nice job." Seeing that Lu Weiwei had completed all the operations for herself, Gu Chen also took a deep breath, and then said slowly:
"Let's go back now to check the excavation of the body. If necessary, we can help Gao Chuanfeng and the others by the way."
"Yeah." After Lu Weiwei put away the transcript, she also nodded and said, "Let's go now."
……
……
Not long after, the two returned to the scene of the room where the body was found.
At this moment, Gao Chuanfeng had already asked his forensic team to drive the vehicle into the waste warehouse.
From inside the car, Gao Chuanfeng basically put the tools that could be moved down on the ground.
But at this moment, the hard-working forensic assistants are still digging at the burial site.
Seeing that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei had arrived at the scene, Gao Chuanfeng pointed to one side and said:
"Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, you just stay aside, you don't need to come here. This excavation work is a bit complicated. I have already contacted other colleagues in our technical department and asked them to come over quickly to support."
"And you, hurry up and deal with your own cases."
"Is it really possible?" Yuan Shasha, who was already helping forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng, couldn't help asking.
"Let's all go. This is a professional job done by professionals. If you help, I feel that the more you help, the more you will help." Gao Chuanfeng still has self-knowledge.
Police officer Wang said with a smile: "That's fine, we won't bother you, and we will contact you at any time if there is any situation. We will be on duty in the office tonight and will not go anywhere."
After a brief explanation at the scene, Gu Chen contacted the police officers who were on duty at night at the sub-bureau, and asked them to come here to maintain order and beat them up by the way.
Gu Chen drove everyone back to the Furong branch.
……
……
11 pm.
Gu Chen and the others returned to the office of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Sub-bureau.
Seeing that Gu Chen opened the folding bed on the spot, Yuan Shasha asked weakly: "Brother Gu, don't we come back at night to handle the case?"
"Oh." Gu Chen settled the folding bed, then sat on it and said, "We have already investigated the clues that should be investigated."
"There are indeed missing persons over there, but the identity information is stored in the administrative department, and we need to wait until tomorrow to get work."
"So, are we tonight?" Yuan Shasha seemed to understand something?
Lu Weiwei smiled and said, "Tonight's task is to get a good night's sleep, and then start investigating the information of the deceased tomorrow. Xiao Yuan, you should go to sleep too."
"We worked together for a long time, and we slept here, while Gao Chuanfeng and the others spent the night digging up the corpse?" Yuan Shasha scratched the back of her head, a little embarrassed and said:
"Would it be too much for us to do this?"
"The division of labor is different. There is nothing that is not too much, as long as Gao Chuanfeng and the others don't know." Police Officer Wang had already placed his folding bed in place while speaking.
……
……
The next morning.
Gu Chen directly dialed the phone number provided by Zhou Liang yesterday.
It was already 7 o'clock in the morning.
Zhou Liang answered the call and asked curiously, "This is the duty room of Binjiang Freight Yard. Who are you?"
"This is the criminal investigation team of the Furong Branch, and I'm Lu Weiwei." Lu Weiwei clicked on the speakerphone, and she also reported herself straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, the other party said politely, "Yo? So it's Police Officer Lu?"
"How is it? Has your colleague from the administration department come over?" Lu Weiwei was waiting for the result, so she also used a urging tone.
But Zhou Liang on the other end felt a little guilty: "I have already called and explained to them that the police from the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Branch wanted these materials."
"Moreover, many patrolling police cars came to the No. 2 Warehouse last night and sealed off the place. Only then did we know that a rotten corpse was found in the No. [-] Warehouse."
"Oh, that's right, we're going to tell you, but...we don't want to jump to conclusions before the identity is confirmed, so we didn't tell you too clearly."
Lu Weiwei also briefly explained her concerns to Zhou Liang.
Zhou Liang nodded silently, and said involuntarily: "I know, so I was also very nervous. I didn't sleep all night last night and called my colleagues a lot."
"But the colleague in charge of personnel in the administrative department said to come back at 7 o'clock, but it's just 7 o'clock now, and the others haven't arrived yet."
After the words fell, Zhou Liang paused for a few seconds, and then quickly changed his words: "Oh, someone else is here. In this way, if I find Zouping's information, I will send it to you by email right away, okay?"
"Then thank you, Master Zhou." When Lu Weiwei got the news of going to work there, the stone hanging in her heart finally let go.
The two exchanged a few words briefly, and both hung up the phone.
So everyone sat in front of the computer and waited quietly for half an hour, Lu Weiwei's email, and then received a strange email.
After Lu Weiwei clicked on it directly, she found that it was a spreadsheet of entry files.
Lu Weiwei squinted her eyes, and said to He Junchao who was beside her, "He Junchao, take a picture of this, and then check the details of this Zou Ping."
"Understood." He Junchao, who was called to work early in the morning, took pictures with his mobile phone, returned to his seat, and immediately began to investigate Zouping's information.
However, after entering the information, He Junchao frowned slightly.
So He Junchao immediately turned on the investigation mode again, and not long after that, He Junchao was stunned again.
Gu Chen also noticed the repeated changes in He Junchao's expression, so he asked curiously, "Senior Brother He, is there a problem?"
"This... this..."
He Junchao said two "this" in a row, so he quickly turned his head, looked at Gu Chen and said:
"Gu Chen, the information about Zouping is fake."
"Fake?" Hearing what He Junchao said, other police officers in the office immediately came over.
Gu Chen also bowed down to check the information on the computer.
He Junchao also pointed to the screen and explained: "There is a problem with Zou Ping's ID card information. This ID number is not called Zou Ping at all, but another person."
"And this other person's ID card can be found."
"That is to say, Zou Ping's ID number is copied from someone else's number?" Officer Wang asked.
"It can be understood in this way." He Junchao nodded slightly, and said involuntarily:
"Then who is Zou Ping? There is his photo on it, Senior Brother He, hurry up and enter the system to see if it can be compared."
"Wait a minute." He Junchao directly scanned the profile picture on Zou Ping's fake ID card to enter the system.
Soon, the system began to automatically screen.
Ten minutes later, the identity information matching Zou Ping suddenly appeared on the screen.
Everyone took a closer look and found that the photos were almost exactly the same.
He Junchao immediately found the real information about the so-called "Zouping" based on the investigation results.
"I found it." He Junchao tapped the keyboard, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "This man is not called Zou Ping, but Zhao Xiaohu, and he is from the Anhui Province."
"I still had a criminal record before. I was imprisoned for manslaughter. Just three years ago, I was just released from prison."
"Later, according to the information of the Binjiang Freight Yard employer, it can be seen that after Zhao Xiaohu was released from prison, he used a fake ID to apply for a job at the Binjiang Freight Yard, and became a stevedore at the Binjiang Freight Yard."
"Work with a fake ID card?" Yuan Shasha crossed her arms and said thoughtfully, "Could it be because she was imprisoned before and was afraid of being discriminated against at work, so she got a fake ID card?"
"It's possible." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and said involuntarily: "Generally, people who have been in prison have an inferiority complex after they come out, and they are afraid that others will discriminate against them, which is also reasonable."
"What's more, Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned for manslaughter, so he stayed in prison for a long time."
"After I came out, I wanted to start a new life and seek a good job, so I took a fake ID and came to apply for an ordinary job."
"The employers here don't know how to investigate carefully, so Zhao Xiaohu was allowed to get away with it, and then he participated in the work under the false identity of Zou Ping."
"Well, it makes sense." Hearing Gu Chen's analysis, Police Officer Wang nodded slightly, also in agreement.
Lu Weiwei said: "No matter what, this Zhao Xiaohu, working under a false identity is in violation of the regulations."
"However, he was imprisoned for manslaughter, so the sentence should be quite heavy, right?"
"Looking at it this way, Zhao Xiaohu's family is not around, so it seems reasonable. This also satisfies what Zhou Liang of Binjiang Freight Yard said. He doesn't seem to have any family to talk about."
"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and continued: "But what I want to know now is how he was imprisoned for manslaughter?"
"If possible, it's best to call up the dossier from that year to have a look."
"In this way, we may be able to find out who killed him."
In the middle of speaking, Gu Chen suddenly stopped speaking, and hurriedly said: "No, it is still impossible to determine that the body is Zhao Xiaohu, so Zhao Xiaohu's characterization can only be that he is missing now."
"We still have to wait for Gao Chuanfeng's test results, and then carry out investigations based on Zhao Xiaohu's characteristics, and finally make a comparison."
"En." Hearing the words, everyone nodded in agreement.
Gu Chen's thoughts seem to be everyone's thoughts.
Police Officer Wang hurriedly said again: "How about this, He Junchao, help me to contact the relevant department and see if I can get Zhao Xiaohu's file out for inspection as soon as possible."
"In addition, Gao Chuanfeng also needs to urge her, and there is the woman who sent a letter to Gu Chen."
"From the current situation, she is the most suspected. After all, she should know that there is a corpse buried in the No. [-] warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard."
"It's just that it's not clear yet, what is the purpose of this woman telling us?"
"However, she must have a great relationship with this burial."
"I agree with Brother Wang's opinion." It was only after hearing Officer Wang's remarks that Gu Chen's thoughts returned to the previous state.
It was originally a strange letter, but no one took it seriously.
But when Gu Chen discovered that the material for writing the letter turned out to be blood, Gu Chen realized that things were not as simple as imagined.
In such an extreme way, telling myself that there is a dead body buried in the warehouse seems very strange.
At least for now, this woman's anti-reconnaissance ability is doing very well.
Even though Gao Chuanfeng used his own monitoring and tracking, he still couldn't capture the specific appearance.
This brought the case processing to a standstill.
Gu Chen put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked back and forth and said, "At present, the investigation on the woman's side has to continue. Although there is no target now, the investigation cannot be slack."
"Especially focus on checking around Binjiang Park, after all, it's where she appeared."
"Also, Gao Chuanfeng should follow up in time."
"The last thing is the investigation of the files. We must find out why Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned back then? This is crucial to the handling of the entire case."
Looking up at everyone, Gu Chen immediately began to arrange again, dividing all the personnel into several groups.
Everyone has a clear division of labor and quickly organizes relevant investigations.
……
……
9 o'clock in the morning.
With He Junchao's unremitting efforts, he finally contacted the relevant department and got the information from the relevant department.
He Junchao immediately reminded Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, the dossier has been found."
Hearing this, Gu Chen immediately put down the work at hand and came back to He Junchao's side.
"Look." He Junchao clicked to view the electronic version of the dossier.
Gu Chen squinted his eyes and started reading along with the words.
After reading it silently, Lu Weiwei turned her head and asked Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, what did you say?"
"It probably means that when Zhao Xiaohu was in the barbecue business in his hometown, he fought with his peers because of his internal involvement."
"The last one accidentally pushed his colleague down, and as a result, the victim landed on the back of his head, and died not long after."
Taking a deep breath, Gu Chen said helplessly, "So, Zhao Xiaohu constituted manslaughter."
"So that's the case?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that impulsiveness is really a devil. If Zhao Xiaohu had been able to endure it, maybe the tragedy would not have happened."
"But life cannot be repeated." Yuan Shasha said.
Officer Wang hurriedly said: "Well, let's find a way to contact Zhao Xiaohu's family immediately to see if Zhao Xiaohu has had any feud with anyone recently?"
"Also, let us find out if Zhao Xiaohu suffered revenge after he was released from prison because of his negligent homicide at the beginning?"
"After all, it's not impossible for something like this to happen."
"I agree with Brother Wang's opinion." Gu Chen also quite agrees with this point.
So everyone turned their eyes to He Junchao together.
He Junchao sighed and said helplessly, "I understand, just wait."
Also based on Zhao Xiaohu's real information, He Junchao quickly found the contact information of Zhao Xiaohu's family.
Afterwards, He Junchao dialed the number of Zhao Xiaohu's wife.
After a while, the call was connected.
A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone, with some Anhui accent: "Who is it?"
"Hello, what is it..." He Junchao immediately glanced at the contact person's name when he heard the woman's words, and said:
"Excuse me, is this Ms. He Lili? I am the criminal investigation team of Furong Branch of Jiangnan City. Excuse me, is your husband Zhao Xiaohu?"
He Junchao's voice fell, and there was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.
He Junchao frowned, and continued to ask: "Hello? Hello? Ms. He Lili, can you hear me? Is Zhao Xiaohu your husband?"
"We're already divorced." After a few seconds, a deep voice came from the phone.
"Divorce?" Lu Weiwei on the side was a little puzzled, and also asked He Lili: "Ms. He, what happened to your divorce with your husband? But on Zhao Xiaohu's emergency contact, the name is you."
"Harm!" He Lili also sighed after hearing what Lu Weiwei said, and said weakly:
"At the beginning, my husband was imprisoned for manslaughter. Later, in order to prevent the victim's family from retaliating against me, he signed a divorce agreement with me before he was imprisoned."
Taking a deep breath, He Lili on the other end of the phone continued: "So, after that, Zhao Xiaohu divorced me. In name, I am not Zhao Xiaohu's wife."
"Also, that incident was actually caused by the aggressiveness of the other party. The man accidentally slipped his foot, and Zhao Xiaohu happened to push him again."
"This caused the man to fall to the ground, the back of his head hit the ground, and he just disappeared."
With a faint sigh, He Lili on the phone seemed a little uncomfortable, and her speech began to become choked up.
He Junchao heard the words, and continued to ask her: "So, your husband, oh no, after your ex-husband Zhao Xiaohu was released from prison, did he contact you?"
"No." He Lili said.
"No? Impossible?" He Junchao expressed puzzlement.
But He Lili on the phone also said helplessly: "To be honest, after I divorced Zhao Xiaohu, I found another man to marry, and now I reorganized a new family."
"I went to the prison to see him twice and explained the situation to him."
"Then how did Zhao Xiaohu react?" Gu Chen, who was standing beside He Junchao, asked.
He Lili on the other end of the phone said: "He seems... very calm. I know he is reluctant. He asked me to divorce him for my safety."
"But when I visited the prison for the first time, I explained to Zhao Xiaohu what the family often troubled me about."
"I told Zhao Xiaohu that after he was imprisoned, I was often bullied by this family. I was very wronged, and Zhao Xiaohu was also very sad to hear it."
"Originally he was discussing with me that we would remarry after he was released from prison."
"But later he found out that this could not protect me at all, so he became cruel and asked me to find someone to remarry instead of waiting for him."
"After all, I was alone and helpless outside. After Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned, my barbecue business, because of that incident, also went bankrupt."
"So I have no choice but to look for other jobs, but it's easy to find a job, but it's hard to keep working."
"Because the family members of the deceased couldn't go to the prison to trouble Zhao Xiaohu, so their family members took all their grievances on me."
"They thought that the death of that person was because Zhao Xiaohu intentionally hurt others, and they wished that Zhao Xiaohu would be buried with him..."
"Wait a minute." Upon hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly interrupted and asked:
"Then that family, do you really want Zhao Xiaohu to kill someone to pay for his life?"
"That's right." After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Lili on the phone immediately nodded and confirmed:
"That's what they think. Every time they meet me, they always talk about killing and paying for their lives. They feel that they can't deal with Zhao Xiaohu, but they can deal with me, a weak woman, more than enough."
Taking a deep breath, He Lili also choked up and said: "Comrade policeman, you don't know that I have really suffered so much for so many years."
"So during the second visit to the prison, Zhao Xiaohu asked me to remarry and find a reliable man to live with. Don't wait for him anymore."
"In this way, I can also have someone to rely on and someone to protect."
"After all, Zhao Xiaohu believes that all the consequences are caused by him, and he needs to be responsible for me."
"So you agreed?" Gu Chen asked.
"I agreed." He Lili choked up twice, and said on the phone: "I have no choice, the whole world collapsed at that time."
"Zhao Xiaohu's departure made me helpless, and I was often gossiped by my neighbors."
"Honestly, I've had enough, and I can't afford to wait."
"So, I married my current husband, and in another city, I'm also doing catering business, so I can barely make ends meet."
After the words fell, He Lili seemed to feel that the situation was wrong, so she asked everyone:
"By the way, comrade policeman, you suddenly mentioned Zhao Xiaohu, and I haven't contacted him for a long time."
"When he was released from prison, he came to see me and saw that I was doing well, so he left, saying that he was going to work in other places."
"After that, I lost contact with him. I haven't received any calls from him for so many years."
"And you are calling me now because of Zhao Xiaohu, so did Zhao Xiaohu do something wrong again?"
"This..." Gu Chen didn't know how to organize the words for a while, so after a short moment of contemplation, he said slowly:
"Ms. He, it's like this. Your ex-husband disappeared a few years ago, and his whereabouts are still unknown."
"What? He's missing?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Lili was at a loss, and hurriedly asked:
"Comrade policeman, where did he disappear? Jiangnan City?"
"That's right." Gu Chen didn't play around with her, and said straight to the point:
"Your ex-husband, Zhao Xiaohu, got a fake ID card after he got out of prison."
"Therefore, he used this false ID card, and has been using Zou Ping's false name to work in Binjiang Freight Yard in Jiangnan City."
"Then... what happened next?" He Lili still focused on the disappearance of her ex-husband Zhao Xiaohu.
Gu Chen replied directly: "Later, he mysteriously disappeared during the night shift together."
"The work unit sent many people to look for it. After many days, there is still no whereabouts of Zhao Xiaohu."
"According to what they said, your ex-husband, Zhao Xiaohu, may have accidentally fallen into the river while patrolling at night."
"But they didn't find Zhao Xiaohu's body in the river. Instead, we dug up a rotten corpse under the floor tiles of a room in the No. [-] warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard."

Ask for votes, with a sincere face. ╰(‵ ′)╯
(End of this chapter)
In the duty room, the two parties looked at each other, and the middle-aged worker was the first to ask, "Comrade police, are you looking for me?"
"Sit down." Gu Chen signaled the worker to sit down first, and then asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Zhou Liang, and I'm the warehouse manager of the freight yard." Zhou Liang walked to the water dispenser familiarly, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it on his own.
Only then did Gu Chen explain the reason, and said, "That's right, Mr. Zhou, I heard that in your Binjiang freight yard, someone disappeared strangely back then. Is there such a thing?"
Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhou Liang, who was still drinking water just now, suddenly froze.
The paper cup in his mouth froze there.
"Mr. Zhou." Seeing that Zhou Liang overreacted, Gu Chen reminded him.
"Oh." Zhou Liang quickly put down the paper cup, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can beside him. Then he asked Gu Chen curiously:
"Comrade police, it's been such a long time, why do you suddenly ask about it?"
"Could it be that you have found the worker who disappeared that year?"
"We..." Lu Weiwei was about to say that we had found it, but was stopped by Gu Chen's hand.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei could only hesitate to speak.
But Gu Chen continued to ask: "You answer my question first, do you have any?"
Zhou Liang seemed a little dazed, but he still nodded and admitted: "Yes, there was indeed a worker who disappeared suddenly while working the night shift, and has never been heard from since then."
"You explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly."
Gu Chen casually found a duty list on the table, used the back as a record, and took out a writing pen from his body.
Lu Weiwei took out the law enforcement recorder, turned it on, and pointed it at Zhou Liang.
When the middle-aged leader saw this situation, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked weakly, "Then...the police comrade, should I avoid it?"
"No need." Gu Chen said.
"I... I'd better avoid it for a while." Feeling a little embarrassed to stay here, the middle-aged leader made another excuse and said:
"I want to have a cigarette."
"That's fine." Lu Weiwei saw that the middle-aged leader seemed unwilling to stay here.
The main reason is that the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
So the middle-aged man walked out of the duty room, lit a cigarette at the door, and smoked it.
In the room, Gu Chen continued to urge Zhou Liang to explain the situation that year clearly as soon as possible.
Due to the long time span, Zhou Liang was also in the process of thinking, and gradually pieced together the original memories.
"I remember that the missing person is called Zou Ping. He is a foreigner and looks strong."
"He hasn't read any books, but he has a lot of strength, so in our Binjiang freight yard, he is mainly engaged in some unloading work."
"Are you familiar with this person?" Gu Chen asked.
Zhou Liang shook his head: "I'm not very familiar with him, because we all work in the same unit, so I occasionally talk to him."
"Because he always speaks with a foreign accent, and his Mandarin is not very good, it is a bit difficult to communicate with him."
"But this person has a good personality and is generous. When he meets an acquaintance, he will pass you a cigarette if he has nothing to do."
After a pause, Zhou Liang continued to recall and said: "I also smoked his cigarettes. Although they are cheap, they can be regarded as a kindness."
"Then how did he disappear later? Can you explain in detail?" Gu Chen continued to listen to Zhou Liang's explanation while recording.
Zhou Liang nodded silently, and said slowly: "I remember, it was Zouping's turn to be on the night shift that day."
"Speaking of the night shift, it actually means going out at a certain time of night, usually once an hour."
"The main thing is to check around the freight yard to see if there are any abnormalities, and to beware of some petty theft."
"Because we stack containers in Binjiang Freight Yard, so there are generally few problems."
"However, we still pile up some scattered goods here, which need to be checked regularly."
"I remember that day, it seemed that I was the one who took over from him."
"When will you take over the shift?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Well... usually at 7 o'clock in the morning, I come to work, and then he gets off work." Zhou Liang said.
"What happened that day? When you came to take over, Zou Ping disappeared, right?" Gu Chen asked.
"Almost." Zhou Liang raised his head to think, and said thoughtfully, "When I came to the duty room, I didn't see Zou Ping."
"Generally speaking, when I come to take over, he usually sleeps in the duty room."
"But I didn't see him that day. I thought he was out shopping, so I didn't care about it."
"How do you judge that he went out to buy things instead of going home?" Gu Chen continued to raise his doubts while recording.
Zhou Liang thought for a moment, and then quickly explained: "His cigarettes and lighters were still left in the duty room at that time, but this guy never leaves his cigarettes."
"So just from this point of view, I think he is only going out temporarily, and he will definitely come to get cigarettes when he comes back."
"Besides, he is a foreigner, so he lives in the staff dormitory near our Binjiang freight yard, while I live at home."
"But then I couldn't get in touch with Zou Ping, because the handover required handing over the keys, but Zou Ping took the keys of many places with him."
"So I kept calling, but Zouping's phone was always turned off."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Liang also sighed and said, "So, I have no choice but to call the leader, and the leader told us to look for someone everywhere."
"It's strange to say that we searched the entire freight yard, but there was no trace of Zou Ping."
"It's not that you wait a little longer." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei couldn't help being curious, and continued to ask: "Don't you have surveillance cameras installed in your warehouse?"
"Uh, it's a coincidence." Zhou Liang thought back for a moment, and continued:
"In the past, our Binjiang cargo yard was relatively deserted, and most of them were containers, so there were no cameras installed."
"And these cameras were only installed after Zou Ping disappeared, so we don't know where he went."
"I just remember that the leader said that day that Zou Ping might have accidentally fallen into the river during a night patrol and was washed away by the river."
"Otherwise, we can't explain why such a good-looking person suddenly disappeared?"
"So? You started searching Jiang?" Gu Chen asked.
Zhou Liang nodded silently: "Other than that, we have no other choice. After all, this good-looking person just disappeared in the warehouse. The leader is a little flustered."
"So, they contacted the Blue Sky Rescue Team and used multiple kayaks to search the lower reaches of the river."
"Anyway, I remember that I searched and rescued for a few days, but I didn't find any traces. In the end, I had no choice but to let it go."
"Then he doesn't have a family?" Lu Weiwei felt that Zou Ping's identity was a bit strange when she heard the explanation from the middle-aged leader.
But now it seems that it is really the case.
But Zhou Liang was very nervous, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Gu Chen saw the problem, and asked weakly, "Mr. Zhou, where is Zou Ping's family?"
"Zou...Zou Ping, he...he seems to have no family."
"What do you mean? Could it be that he jumped out of a pile of rocks?" Lu Weiwei was puzzled.
But Zhou Liang continued to explain: "Because the mysterious disappearance of Zou Ping in our freight yard made the leader a little embarrassed."
"Because this freight yard was contracted by a private person, so if the leader can't find the person, the above will treat it as missing."
"After all, disappearance and death are completely different in nature. If Zouping's family members come to make a fuss, then our warehouse will definitely have to give a sum of compensation."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Liang said again: "But those unscrupulous bosses above, let us not contact Zou Ping's family members, and don't call the police."
"Because no one was found, there was no way to say whether he was dead or alive."
"Even if Zou Ping's family members come here, the higher-ups will use the disappearance as an excuse and deal with it accordingly."
"After all, if a person is drowned, the body must be found."
"But it has been several years, and there is no news about the corpse at all."
"It's not that you wait a little longer." Hearing Zhou Liang say this, Gu Chen suddenly reached out to interrupt.
Zhou Liang hesitated, and asked weakly, "What... what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say that Zou Ping is usually popular? Has no one contacted Zou Ping's family in these years?"
"This one……"
It seemed that Gu Chen asked about the vitals, Zhou Liang was a little embarrassed, but he took the initiative to explain: "That's right, comrade policeman."
"Because the superiors told us not to care about it, and we usually have a good relationship with Zou Ping, but Zou Ping's cell phone can't be found, so it's simply unrealistic to contact his family."
"Besides, Zou Ping must have been working in our Binjiang freight yard for half a year, but he never mentioned his family."
"Not only that, Zou Ping should have mentioned to his family that he worked in our Binjiang freight yard, but he didn't, which made us very curious."
"I wonder why he, Zouping, has no family? And after he disappeared, almost no one came to look for him."
"It's as if this person suddenly appeared beside you and then disappeared suddenly. In this world, there are almost no people who seem to be related to him."
After a pause, Zhou Liang took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and seemed to remember something?So he quickly said:
"Oh, by the way, there is another reason. Zou Ping is a foreigner, so we don't know the situation of his family very well."
"Okay." Hearing this, Gu Chen almost recorded it.
Basic information has also been recorded.
But for now, Gu Chen still doesn't know what the so-called Zou Ping actually looks like?What is the ID number?
So Gu Chen asked Zhou Liang again: "His photo, and his ID card records, do you have them here?"
"Uh, this..." Zhou Liang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't seem to have one here, but you can go to the administration department of Binjiang Freight Yard, which also handles personnel matters."
"It stands to reason that there should be records, because each of our employees has relevant certificate records when they come to work here, but we have to wait until tomorrow to go to work."
"Okay." After getting the clue, Gu Chen basically had a general understanding of Zou Ping.
At this moment, Gu Chen's cell phone rang suddenly. Gu Chen saw that the caller was Gao Chuanfeng, and immediately swiped the answer button.
"Gu Chen, we have arrived at the scene, your situation is a bit complicated."
As soon as the phone was connected, Gu Chen heard He Junchao's little complaint.
Indeed, a corpse that had been decomposing for a long time suddenly needed to be dug out from the ground of the dilapidated room, which really tested the skills of the forensic team.
It's not an exaggeration to say archeology.
Not only does it need to excavate the corpse intact, but it also needs to clean up the many corrosive substances on the surface of the corpse.
For Gao Chuanfeng's team, this was enough reason for him to call and complain.
Since Forensic Liu was recently invited by a university in the provincial capital to give a lecture, there was obviously not enough manpower in the testing room of the city bureau.
Gao Chuanfeng felt that it was impossible to sleep tonight, and just digging up the corpse was enough trouble.
Gu Chen signaled to Lu Weiwei to help with the finishing work, while he walked out of the duty room with the phone in hand.
At this moment, the middle-aged leader who was at the door had long since disappeared, so Gu Chen simply answered the call from outside the door:
"Gao Chuanfeng, work hard tonight and dig out that corpse."
"I know that this is really difficult for your team, but didn't Senior Brother Wang communicate with you on the phone before? He also explained the specific situation."
"Don't." Before Gu Chen finished speaking, Gao Chuanfeng retorted directly:
"Your Senior Brother Wang is really good enough. He only told me on the phone that in the No. 2 warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard, he found a corpse buried in the ground, and asked our team to bring the tools and get the corpse out. "
"At first I thought it was a complete corpse, but now when I arrived at the scene, I realized that I was still young. Is this called exhumation? Is this called archaeology?"
Seeing Gao Chuanfeng on the other end of the phone chattering endlessly, Gu Chen also chuckled twice, and quickly comforted:
"Don't worry, I know this corpse is quite difficult to dig up, but you guys are professionals. If it doesn't work, I'll let Senior Brother Wang and Xiao Yuan help you."
"Anyway, this person must be dug out, and his true identity must be identified."
"Because a mysterious woman told us the specific location of this corpse, and I still have to find a way to find that woman."
"Okay, okay." Seeing Gu Chen's various explanations, Gao Chuanfeng also let out a long sigh, and said indifferently:
"Forget it, who told me to be a professional? You ask Comrade Wang and Xiao Yuan to help me. Besides, if you are busy, you can go to your own work."
"Okay, I see. After the corpse is processed, transfer it to the technical department of the Municipal Bureau as soon as possible."
"The handling of the case on my side will also be advanced simultaneously, and the cooperation of your forensic team will be needed at that time."
"Understood, let's do it like this." Gao Chuanfeng is also having a big head at the moment, feeling that he is a forensic doctor who has become a regular, and he will become an archaeologist in an instant.
As soon as Gu Chen hung up the phone, Lu Weiwei came out of the duty room.
Seeing Gu Chen, he also reminded him: "Zhou Liang has already explained all the clues that should be explained."
"But I've already told him that as soon as I go to work tomorrow, the staff of their administration department will send me the information about Zouping directly by email."
"Nice job." Seeing that Lu Weiwei had completed all the operations for herself, Gu Chen also took a deep breath, and then said slowly:
"Let's go back now to check the excavation of the body. If necessary, we can help Gao Chuanfeng and the others by the way."
"Yeah." After Lu Weiwei put away the transcript, she also nodded and said, "Let's go now."
……
……
Not long after, the two returned to the scene of the room where the body was found.
At this moment, Gao Chuanfeng had already asked his forensic team to drive the vehicle into the waste warehouse.
From inside the car, Gao Chuanfeng basically put the tools that could be moved down on the ground.
But at this moment, the hard-working forensic assistants are still digging at the burial site.
Seeing that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei had arrived at the scene, Gao Chuanfeng pointed to one side and said:
"Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, you just stay aside, you don't need to come here. This excavation work is a bit complicated. I have already contacted other colleagues in our technical department and asked them to come over quickly to support."
"And you, hurry up and deal with your own cases."
"Is it really possible?" Yuan Shasha, who was already helping forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng, couldn't help asking.
"Let's all go. This is a professional job done by professionals. If you help, I feel that the more you help, the more you will help." Gao Chuanfeng still has self-knowledge.
Police officer Wang said with a smile: "That's fine, we won't bother you, and we will contact you at any time if there is any situation. We will be on duty in the office tonight and will not go anywhere."
After a brief explanation at the scene, Gu Chen contacted the police officers who were on duty at night at the sub-bureau, and asked them to come here to maintain order and beat them up by the way.
Gu Chen drove everyone back to the Furong branch.
……
……
11 pm.
Gu Chen and the others returned to the office of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Sub-bureau.
Seeing that Gu Chen opened the folding bed on the spot, Yuan Shasha asked weakly: "Brother Gu, don't we come back at night to handle the case?"
"Oh." Gu Chen settled the folding bed, then sat on it and said, "We have already investigated the clues that should be investigated."
"There are indeed missing persons over there, but the identity information is stored in the administrative department, and we need to wait until tomorrow to get work."
"So, are we tonight?" Yuan Shasha seemed to understand something?
Lu Weiwei smiled and said, "Tonight's task is to get a good night's sleep, and then start investigating the information of the deceased tomorrow. Xiao Yuan, you should go to sleep too."
"We worked together for a long time, and we slept here, while Gao Chuanfeng and the others spent the night digging up the corpse?" Yuan Shasha scratched the back of her head, a little embarrassed and said:
"Would it be too much for us to do this?"
"The division of labor is different. There is nothing that is not too much, as long as Gao Chuanfeng and the others don't know." Police Officer Wang had already placed his folding bed in place while speaking.
……
……
The next morning.
Gu Chen directly dialed the phone number provided by Zhou Liang yesterday.
It was already 7 o'clock in the morning.
Zhou Liang answered the call and asked curiously, "This is the duty room of Binjiang Freight Yard. Who are you?"
"This is the criminal investigation team of the Furong Branch, and I'm Lu Weiwei." Lu Weiwei clicked on the speakerphone, and she also reported herself straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, the other party said politely, "Yo? So it's Police Officer Lu?"
"How is it? Has your colleague from the administration department come over?" Lu Weiwei was waiting for the result, so she also used a urging tone.
But Zhou Liang on the other end felt a little guilty: "I have already called and explained to them that the police from the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Branch wanted these materials."
"Moreover, many patrolling police cars came to the No. 2 Warehouse last night and sealed off the place. Only then did we know that a rotten corpse was found in the No. [-] Warehouse."
"Oh, that's right, we're going to tell you, but...we don't want to jump to conclusions before the identity is confirmed, so we didn't tell you too clearly."
Lu Weiwei also briefly explained her concerns to Zhou Liang.
Zhou Liang nodded silently, and said involuntarily: "I know, so I was also very nervous. I didn't sleep all night last night and called my colleagues a lot."
"But the colleague in charge of personnel in the administrative department said to come back at 7 o'clock, but it's just 7 o'clock now, and the others haven't arrived yet."
After the words fell, Zhou Liang paused for a few seconds, and then quickly changed his words: "Oh, someone else is here. In this way, if I find Zouping's information, I will send it to you by email right away, okay?"
"Then thank you, Master Zhou." When Lu Weiwei got the news of going to work there, the stone hanging in her heart finally let go.
The two exchanged a few words briefly, and both hung up the phone.
So everyone sat in front of the computer and waited quietly for half an hour, Lu Weiwei's email, and then received a strange email.
After Lu Weiwei clicked on it directly, she found that it was a spreadsheet of entry files.
Lu Weiwei squinted her eyes, and said to He Junchao who was beside her, "He Junchao, take a picture of this, and then check the details of this Zou Ping."
"Understood." He Junchao, who was called to work early in the morning, took pictures with his mobile phone, returned to his seat, and immediately began to investigate Zouping's information.
However, after entering the information, He Junchao frowned slightly.
So He Junchao immediately turned on the investigation mode again, and not long after that, He Junchao was stunned again.
Gu Chen also noticed the repeated changes in He Junchao's expression, so he asked curiously, "Senior Brother He, is there a problem?"
"This... this..."
He Junchao said two "this" in a row, so he quickly turned his head, looked at Gu Chen and said:
"Gu Chen, the information about Zouping is fake."
"Fake?" Hearing what He Junchao said, other police officers in the office immediately came over.
Gu Chen also bowed down to check the information on the computer.
He Junchao also pointed to the screen and explained: "There is a problem with Zou Ping's ID card information. This ID number is not called Zou Ping at all, but another person."
"And this other person's ID card can be found."
"That is to say, Zou Ping's ID number is copied from someone else's number?" Officer Wang asked.
"It can be understood in this way." He Junchao nodded slightly, and said involuntarily:
"Then who is Zou Ping? There is his photo on it, Senior Brother He, hurry up and enter the system to see if it can be compared."
"Wait a minute." He Junchao directly scanned the profile picture on Zou Ping's fake ID card to enter the system.
Soon, the system began to automatically screen.
Ten minutes later, the identity information matching Zou Ping suddenly appeared on the screen.
Everyone took a closer look and found that the photos were almost exactly the same.
He Junchao immediately found the real information about the so-called "Zouping" based on the investigation results.
"I found it." He Junchao tapped the keyboard, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "This man is not called Zou Ping, but Zhao Xiaohu, and he is from the Anhui Province."
"I still had a criminal record before. I was imprisoned for manslaughter. Just three years ago, I was just released from prison."
"Later, according to the information of the Binjiang Freight Yard employer, it can be seen that after Zhao Xiaohu was released from prison, he used a fake ID to apply for a job at the Binjiang Freight Yard, and became a stevedore at the Binjiang Freight Yard."
"Work with a fake ID card?" Yuan Shasha crossed her arms and said thoughtfully, "Could it be because she was imprisoned before and was afraid of being discriminated against at work, so she got a fake ID card?"
"It's possible." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and said involuntarily: "Generally, people who have been in prison have an inferiority complex after they come out, and they are afraid that others will discriminate against them, which is also reasonable."
"What's more, Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned for manslaughter, so he stayed in prison for a long time."
"After I came out, I wanted to start a new life and seek a good job, so I took a fake ID and came to apply for an ordinary job."
"The employers here don't know how to investigate carefully, so Zhao Xiaohu was allowed to get away with it, and then he participated in the work under the false identity of Zou Ping."
"Well, it makes sense." Hearing Gu Chen's analysis, Police Officer Wang nodded slightly, also in agreement.
Lu Weiwei said: "No matter what, this Zhao Xiaohu, working under a false identity is in violation of the regulations."
"However, he was imprisoned for manslaughter, so the sentence should be quite heavy, right?"
"Looking at it this way, Zhao Xiaohu's family is not around, so it seems reasonable. This also satisfies what Zhou Liang of Binjiang Freight Yard said. He doesn't seem to have any family to talk about."
"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and continued: "But what I want to know now is how he was imprisoned for manslaughter?"
"If possible, it's best to call up the dossier from that year to have a look."
"In this way, we may be able to find out who killed him."
In the middle of speaking, Gu Chen suddenly stopped speaking, and hurriedly said: "No, it is still impossible to determine that the body is Zhao Xiaohu, so Zhao Xiaohu's characterization can only be that he is missing now."
"We still have to wait for Gao Chuanfeng's test results, and then carry out investigations based on Zhao Xiaohu's characteristics, and finally make a comparison."
"En." Hearing the words, everyone nodded in agreement.
Gu Chen's thoughts seem to be everyone's thoughts.
Police Officer Wang hurriedly said again: "How about this, He Junchao, help me to contact the relevant department and see if I can get Zhao Xiaohu's file out for inspection as soon as possible."
"In addition, Gao Chuanfeng also needs to urge her, and there is the woman who sent a letter to Gu Chen."
"From the current situation, she is the most suspected. After all, she should know that there is a corpse buried in the No. [-] warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard."
"It's just that it's not clear yet, what is the purpose of this woman telling us?"
"However, she must have a great relationship with this burial."
"I agree with Brother Wang's opinion." It was only after hearing Officer Wang's remarks that Gu Chen's thoughts returned to the previous state.
It was originally a strange letter, but no one took it seriously.
But when Gu Chen discovered that the material for writing the letter turned out to be blood, Gu Chen realized that things were not as simple as imagined.
In such an extreme way, telling myself that there is a dead body buried in the warehouse seems very strange.
At least for now, this woman's anti-reconnaissance ability is doing very well.
Even though Gao Chuanfeng used his own monitoring and tracking, he still couldn't capture the specific appearance.
This brought the case processing to a standstill.
Gu Chen put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked back and forth and said, "At present, the investigation on the woman's side has to continue. Although there is no target now, the investigation cannot be slack."
"Especially focus on checking around Binjiang Park, after all, it's where she appeared."
"Also, Gao Chuanfeng should follow up in time."
"The last thing is the investigation of the files. We must find out why Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned back then? This is crucial to the handling of the entire case."
Looking up at everyone, Gu Chen immediately began to arrange again, dividing all the personnel into several groups.
Everyone has a clear division of labor and quickly organizes relevant investigations.
……
……
9 o'clock in the morning.
With He Junchao's unremitting efforts, he finally contacted the relevant department and got the information from the relevant department.
He Junchao immediately reminded Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, the dossier has been found."
Hearing this, Gu Chen immediately put down the work at hand and came back to He Junchao's side.
"Look." He Junchao clicked to view the electronic version of the dossier.
Gu Chen squinted his eyes and started reading along with the words.
After reading it silently, Lu Weiwei turned her head and asked Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, what did you say?"
"It probably means that when Zhao Xiaohu was in the barbecue business in his hometown, he fought with his peers because of his internal involvement."
"The last one accidentally pushed his colleague down, and as a result, the victim landed on the back of his head, and died not long after."
Taking a deep breath, Gu Chen said helplessly, "So, Zhao Xiaohu constituted manslaughter."
"So that's the case?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that impulsiveness is really a devil. If Zhao Xiaohu had been able to endure it, maybe the tragedy would not have happened."
"But life cannot be repeated." Yuan Shasha said.
Officer Wang hurriedly said: "Well, let's find a way to contact Zhao Xiaohu's family immediately to see if Zhao Xiaohu has had any feud with anyone recently?"
"Also, let us find out if Zhao Xiaohu suffered revenge after he was released from prison because of his negligent homicide at the beginning?"
"After all, it's not impossible for something like this to happen."
"I agree with Brother Wang's opinion." Gu Chen also quite agrees with this point.
So everyone turned their eyes to He Junchao together.
He Junchao sighed and said helplessly, "I understand, just wait."
Also based on Zhao Xiaohu's real information, He Junchao quickly found the contact information of Zhao Xiaohu's family.
Afterwards, He Junchao dialed the number of Zhao Xiaohu's wife.
After a while, the call was connected.
A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone, with some Anhui accent: "Who is it?"
"Hello, what is it..." He Junchao immediately glanced at the contact person's name when he heard the woman's words, and said:
"Excuse me, is this Ms. He Lili? I am the criminal investigation team of Furong Branch of Jiangnan City. Excuse me, is your husband Zhao Xiaohu?"
He Junchao's voice fell, and there was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.
He Junchao frowned, and continued to ask: "Hello? Hello? Ms. He Lili, can you hear me? Is Zhao Xiaohu your husband?"
"We're already divorced." After a few seconds, a deep voice came from the phone.
"Divorce?" Lu Weiwei on the side was a little puzzled, and also asked He Lili: "Ms. He, what happened to your divorce with your husband? But on Zhao Xiaohu's emergency contact, the name is you."
"Harm!" He Lili also sighed after hearing what Lu Weiwei said, and said weakly:
"At the beginning, my husband was imprisoned for manslaughter. Later, in order to prevent the victim's family from retaliating against me, he signed a divorce agreement with me before he was imprisoned."
Taking a deep breath, He Lili on the other end of the phone continued: "So, after that, Zhao Xiaohu divorced me. In name, I am not Zhao Xiaohu's wife."
"Also, that incident was actually caused by the aggressiveness of the other party. The man accidentally slipped his foot, and Zhao Xiaohu happened to push him again."
"This caused the man to fall to the ground, the back of his head hit the ground, and he just disappeared."
With a faint sigh, He Lili on the phone seemed a little uncomfortable, and her speech began to become choked up.
He Junchao heard the words, and continued to ask her: "So, your husband, oh no, after your ex-husband Zhao Xiaohu was released from prison, did he contact you?"
"No." He Lili said.
"No? Impossible?" He Junchao expressed puzzlement.
But He Lili on the phone also said helplessly: "To be honest, after I divorced Zhao Xiaohu, I found another man to marry, and now I reorganized a new family."
"I went to the prison to see him twice and explained the situation to him."
"Then how did Zhao Xiaohu react?" Gu Chen, who was standing beside He Junchao, asked.
He Lili on the other end of the phone said: "He seems... very calm. I know he is reluctant. He asked me to divorce him for my safety."
"But when I visited the prison for the first time, I explained to Zhao Xiaohu what the family often troubled me about."
"I told Zhao Xiaohu that after he was imprisoned, I was often bullied by this family. I was very wronged, and Zhao Xiaohu was also very sad to hear it."
"Originally he was discussing with me that we would remarry after he was released from prison."
"But later he found out that this could not protect me at all, so he became cruel and asked me to find someone to remarry instead of waiting for him."
"After all, I was alone and helpless outside. After Zhao Xiaohu was imprisoned, my barbecue business, because of that incident, also went bankrupt."
"So I have no choice but to look for other jobs, but it's easy to find a job, but it's hard to keep working."
"Because the family members of the deceased couldn't go to the prison to trouble Zhao Xiaohu, so their family members took all their grievances on me."
"They thought that the death of that person was because Zhao Xiaohu intentionally hurt others, and they wished that Zhao Xiaohu would be buried with him..."
"Wait a minute." Upon hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly interrupted and asked:
"Then that family, do you really want Zhao Xiaohu to kill someone to pay for his life?"
"That's right." After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Lili on the phone immediately nodded and confirmed:
"That's what they think. Every time they meet me, they always talk about killing and paying for their lives. They feel that they can't deal with Zhao Xiaohu, but they can deal with me, a weak woman, more than enough."
Taking a deep breath, He Lili also choked up and said: "Comrade policeman, you don't know that I have really suffered so much for so many years."
"So during the second visit to the prison, Zhao Xiaohu asked me to remarry and find a reliable man to live with. Don't wait for him anymore."
"In this way, I can also have someone to rely on and someone to protect."
"After all, Zhao Xiaohu believes that all the consequences are caused by him, and he needs to be responsible for me."
"So you agreed?" Gu Chen asked.
"I agreed." He Lili choked up twice, and said on the phone: "I have no choice, the whole world collapsed at that time."
"Zhao Xiaohu's departure made me helpless, and I was often gossiped by my neighbors."
"Honestly, I've had enough, and I can't afford to wait."
"So, I married my current husband, and in another city, I'm also doing catering business, so I can barely make ends meet."
After the words fell, He Lili seemed to feel that the situation was wrong, so she asked everyone:
"By the way, comrade policeman, you suddenly mentioned Zhao Xiaohu, and I haven't contacted him for a long time."
"When he was released from prison, he came to see me and saw that I was doing well, so he left, saying that he was going to work in other places."
"After that, I lost contact with him. I haven't received any calls from him for so many years."
"And you are calling me now because of Zhao Xiaohu, so did Zhao Xiaohu do something wrong again?"
"This..." Gu Chen didn't know how to organize the words for a while, so after a short moment of contemplation, he said slowly:
"Ms. He, it's like this. Your ex-husband disappeared a few years ago, and his whereabouts are still unknown."
"What? He's missing?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, He Lili was at a loss, and hurriedly asked:
"Comrade policeman, where did he disappear? Jiangnan City?"
"That's right." Gu Chen didn't play around with her, and said straight to the point:
"Your ex-husband, Zhao Xiaohu, got a fake ID card after he got out of prison."
"Therefore, he used this false ID card, and has been using Zou Ping's false name to work in Binjiang Freight Yard in Jiangnan City."
"Then... what happened next?" He Lili still focused on the disappearance of her ex-husband Zhao Xiaohu.
Gu Chen replied directly: "Later, he mysteriously disappeared during the night shift together."
"The work unit sent many people to look for it. After many days, there is still no whereabouts of Zhao Xiaohu."
"According to what they said, your ex-husband, Zhao Xiaohu, may have accidentally fallen into the river while patrolling at night."
"But they didn't find Zhao Xiaohu's body in the river. Instead, we dug up a rotten corpse under the floor tiles of a room in the No. [-] warehouse of Binjiang Freight Yard."
