I am a super cop

Chapter 2215 Dangerous People
As the sky gradually brightened, the crisis was temporarily lifted.

But the psychological shadow left on the three of them last night also lingered on them.

Listening to Gu Chen's explanation, Police Officer Wang felt that he had just saved his life, but when he looked back, they just came here to find Zhou Xiaotong's whereabouts, how could they get killed?

"No, this matter can't be left alone, it needs to be discussed in the long run." Officer Wang couldn't hold back his breath.

Lu Weiwei said indifferently: "No matter how angry you old Wang is, you have to leave this forest, right?"

"Okay, I don't want to stay in this place for a minute." Officer Wang stood up, twisting his whole body habitually, and suddenly found soreness in many places, and he complained again and again:
"Staying outside here all night, I feel like my bones are falling apart."

"You also said that the two of us slept soundly last night, but Junior Brother Gu didn't sleep all night, so he stayed by our side and guarded our safety. That's it, Junior Brother Gu didn't say he was tired, but your old Wang Call first." Lu Weiwei sneered at Police Officer Wang's complaint.

Gu Chen also interrupted: "Don't say anything now, I want to see that guy's evacuation route last night, and then we are leaving here."

"What did you say? Gu Chen, you're not kidding, are you?" Hearing that Gu Chen was going after that person, Police Officer Wang felt a little bit in his heart.

But Gu Chen was determined: "That guy, we must figure it out. Now that the sky is getting brighter, it's just right that we can look for the other party's clues."

"With luck, we may be able to find some important breakthroughs. In this way, when we return, we may be able to use these clues to find out the identity of that person."

Although Gu Chen said something idealistic, this is the best solution at present.

Last night, if he hadn't worried about the safety of his colleagues around him, with Gu Chen's courage, Gu Chen would have followed to find out no matter what.

It can be said that Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang indirectly became Gu Chen's drag.

Of course, the oil bottle can sometimes be a strong support.

If they met a gang last night, then the other party would never evacuate so easily when they knew that Gu Chen was alone, but would choose to deal with Gu Chen in the dense forest.

But the three of them formed a team, and they didn't dare to act rashly when it came to convenience.

So, sometimes it's just that subtle.

Gu Chen missed the opportunity to chase the suspicious person last night, so Gu Chen will not miss this opportunity when the day comes.

After discussing for a while, the three of them put on their equipment and prepared to follow Gu Chen to find clues.

Gu Chen first came to the place six meters away from himself based on the position he judged last night.

At this moment, many surrounding plants have been severely trampled. It can be seen that someone stayed here for a long time last night, which caused many weeds to fail to stand up.

This is like the area where everyone rested last night. At this moment, there are already many weeds that cannot stand up.

Gu Chen then searched all the way according to the other party's evacuation route.

Visibility was extremely low last night due to the dark weather and heavy fog.

And the other party didn't dare to turn on the strong light rashly.

Perhaps at a certain moment, the other party turned on a weak light source to illuminate his feet, but this will inevitably bring a lot of inconvenience to his actions.

Therefore, there will not be too many scruples along the way, and there will be many signs of overtrampled vegetation.

Since last night, Gu Chen's team was in a vertical queue, that is, Gu Chen was in front, Lu Weiwei and Police Officer Wang were behind, but everyone was stepping on each other's footsteps and moving forward step by step.

Therefore, in the process of walking, a relatively narrow trace will be formed.

And the other party also followed this trace, and they may have followed the footprints when they came, but when they retreated, they did not dare to use excessive light to illuminate themselves, which led to many traces that deviated from the footprints of Gu Chen's team.

"This guy really evacuated from here." Gu Chen squatted down and carefully checked the relevant area before confirming his judgment.

Lu Weiwei thought for a while and was terrified: "Could it be that that guy was really standing six meters away from us last night and remained motionless for more than an hour?"

"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and said with relief: "This guy is really good at endurance."

"We sat cross-legged in the haystack, and we all felt exhausted, but this guy, standing here for more than an hour, exhausted a lot of energy."

"However, in order not to be discovered by us, this guy stood firm for more than an hour until a strong wind started blowing around, causing the surrounding weeds to rub against each other more."

"This is the only way to escape with the help of friction."

"It's so hateful." Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Police Officer Wang also gritted his teeth with hatred, and said involuntarily:
"Gu Chen, don't say anything, chase after him, even if you can't find anyone, at least you need to know where that guy escaped from."

"I'll try my best." Gu Chen was not sure if he could find the other party's evacuation trace.

So, after a brief rest in place, the three of them continued to form a column and began to search along with Gu Chen.

Since the line of sight was blocked last night, the walking traces left by the other party were quite obvious.

Gu Chen searched all the way without spending too much energy.

It wasn't until Gu Chen came under a big tree that he stopped involuntarily and began to look around.

"What's the matter, Junior Brother Gu?" Seeing Gu Chen's nervous expression, Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked.

"It's too scary." Gu Chen said.

"But... scary?" Lu Weiwei looked around and asked with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong? Did you find the other party's trace?"

"No, Senior Sister Lu, what range can you see from this angle?" Gu Chen asked a question.

"What range can you see?" Lu Weiwei was a little puzzled, but continued to observe the surroundings according to Gu Chen's prompt.

After a while, Lu Weiwei's gaze stayed on a wide area, and she couldn't help being surprised:
"Isn't that the place where we found the empty mineral water bottle last night?"

"That's right, we found the mineral water bottle at that place." Seeing this, Police Officer Wang quickly agreed.

Gu Chen nodded silently, and said slowly: "It can be seen from this that when we gathered in that area to study the empty mineral water bottles, the guy on the other side stayed in our current area and secretly observed us."

"Here, that guy can see almost everything, but he can use this big tree as cover."

"Oh my god." Feeling more and more evil, Lu Weiwei shrank her neck involuntarily, and said in fear:
"Isn't this guy too a thief? He has been following us, but we didn't find out."

"It seems that it was right not to provoke him last night, and you might suffer a loss if you provoke him." Officer Wang couldn't help being surprised when he thought of this.

You know, what everyone is facing is definitely a jungle master.

Thinking about it now, I really have to thank the darkness and fog last night.

"Stop talking about this, follow me." Gu Chen continued to search according to the traces.

Since the current walking traces are too obvious, it is not difficult for Gu Chen to find them, but in order not to get lost along the way, Gu Chen still makes marks along the way.

But with the experience of last night, Gu Chen didn't tie up with vines anymore, but directly took out a police dagger and carved walking marks on the relevant branches.

The three of them didn't know how long they walked, but they felt that the sun was beginning to shine through the gaps in the woods, and the fog was gradually dissipating.

When Gu Chen and the others walked around according to each other's traces and came to a spacious path, Gu Chen realized that the dense forest hut was not far from him.

"It seems that we have returned to the original point." Gu Chen looked at the dense forest hut and said.

Lu Weiwei looked at the traces on the ground, then at the direction of the dense forest hut, couldn't help but feel a little bit in her heart, and said quickly:

"The other party may have been watching us from the very beginning, and I remember very clearly that we entered the jungle hut from there. There is a fir forest over there."

"And this guy, entering the dense forest, is less than tens of meters away from us. He may have hidden in the woods and observed us secretly."

"Then watched us come out of the dense forest hut, and continued to follow all the way, destroying our markers all the way, and finally came to the place where we confronted each other."

"It seems that this guy is not simple." Hearing Lu Weiwei's analysis, Police Officer Wang also said after a moment of fear:

"This guy is a dangerous person, but at the very least, that guy followed us late at night, obviously knowing our movements."

After a pause, Officer Wang looked up at Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, and continued:
"I suspect that guy is one of these people we contacted."

"You mean?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"The one-eyed owner of the fast food restaurant, as well as Da Ge Zhang Da, Zhuang Qiang who is his deadly enemy, and Zhuang Qiang's apprentice, that young man."

"Except for a few of them who are major suspects, I can't think of anyone else for the time being."

Just as Police Officer Wang was speaking, Gu Chen also took out his mobile phone.

Since he was afraid of exposing the target last night, Gu Chen turned the phone to silent.

Only now did I realize that there were a few missed calls, and the caller was Yuan Shasha.

So Gu Chen quickly dialed back the phone, and after a while, the phone was connected, and Yuan Shasha also hurriedly said hello:

"Brother Gu, have you finally answered the phone?"

"What's the matter, Xiao Yuan?" Gu Chen also asked curiously.

"It's nothing." Yuan Shasha on the other end of the phone smiled habitually and explained:

"You arranged for me to send Zhou Xiaotong's father away. I have already completed the task. When I came back, I found that you were not there, so I called you back and found that your phone was connected, but no one answered."

"I don't know what's going on with you. I knew it might be inconvenient for you to answer the phone, so I muted the phone. So, after a long time, I didn't call you again until dawn, but Still no one connected."

"Haha." Just as Yuan Shasha finished speaking, Lu Weiwei smiled and said:

"Xiao Yuan, it's a good thing you didn't keep calling. You don't know how dangerous we were last night. I almost died calling you."

"What? What are you talking about? Why did you almost die on the phone?" Yuan Shasha was suddenly confused by Lu Weiwei's words, and she was so nervous.

Gu Chen hurriedly comforted: "It's nothing, it's just our side. During the investigation last night, something happened, but it's all right now."

"The specific situation, let's talk about it after we go back."

"That's fine." Seeing that Gu Chen seemed to be fine, Yuan Shasha on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Then Senior Brother Gu, when are you guys coming back?"

"It may take some time." Gu Chen said.

"Okay, then you all pay attention to safety."

She was also exchanging simple greetings with Gu Chen and the others before Yuan Shasha hung up the phone.

Lu Weiwei also patted her towering chest, and said involuntarily: "Fortunately, Junior Brother Gu foresaw such an incident last night, so he turned his phone to silent mode early."

"Otherwise, as soon as the three of our mobile phones ring, we will immediately reveal our whereabouts."

"Isn't it?" Officer Wang felt a little scared when he thought about it now, and said involuntarily:
"Fortunately, Xiao Yuan is smart, knowing that it must be inconvenient for us not to answer the phone, so he didn't keep calling."

"It seems that everyone has worked for so long, and there is still a tacit understanding."

"En." Gu Chen nodded slightly to express his approval, and after turning his phone into a normal answering state, he said again:
"Now we have to go back quickly, just like Senior Brother Wang said, to pay a good return visit to the last possible people, and see what these people were doing last night?"

"I think, first of all, we should go to Xinxin Hotel and ask. After all, the fat female receptionist at Xinxin Hotel knows that we are going to the back mountain to find someone."

"Besides, she is the one who told us how to go about the specific situation in Houshan. I think she should be the clearest."

"If we want to investigate, then this fat woman must not be let go."

"Agreed." Gu Chen just nodded slightly, and immediately followed the road on the mountain last night, and started to return the same way.

After experiencing the frightening moment last night, Gu Chen felt more and more that among the people he met in this area before, it seemed that everyone had something on their minds.

When Gu Chen and the others came to Xinxin Hotel, the fat female receptionist was lying on the recliner behind the receptionist and sound asleep.

When Gu Chen and the others came to the front desk, they didn't wake her up immediately.

Gu Chen bypassed the front desk and carefully observed the woman's legs. Seeing that there was no dirt on her feet, he touched the woman's arm and woke her up: "Wake up."

"Ah?" The fat woman shuddered and woke up from her sleep.

She immediately rubbed her eyes, took a closer look, and found that it was Gu Chen and the others who came, and then said with relief: "Why are you? Why did you come so early?"

"We didn't leave at all." Lu Weiwei said.

"Didn't leave?" The fat woman yawned and said it casually, but remembering what happened last night, she came back to her senses and said quickly:
"That's right, you went to the back mountain last night, then you went to the back mountain, did you find anything?"
