I am a super cop

Chapter 2353 Lucky Cat [Two in one chapter]

Since it was already after midnight, Lu Weiwei was still surprised by the sudden appearance of the kitten in the old community.

"Isn't this a night owl? The domestic cat is probably sleeping in the room so late." Lu Weiwei has studied these animals, so she has her own judgment on the kitten that appears at Gu Chen's feet.

Gu Chen couldn't care too much. After looking around, he said helplessly:

"It's already after midnight and most people have gone to bed. Even if we want to find the man, we can only wait until tomorrow."

"However, I still want to come here early and ask the residents here so that I can..."

"Meow!"

Just before Gu Chen finished speaking, the kitten rubbed Gu Chen's feet a few times, and then walked towards a street lamp.

When Gu Chen saw the kitten stopping from time to time and always looking back at him, he also felt that the kitten was a little spiritual.

Yuan Shasha took a step forward and reminded her, "Senior Brother Gu, do you still remember the kitten we met on the hillside when we went to handle the case?"

"You mean, when you were in the nunnery?" Gu Chen asked.

Yuan Shasha nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "The kittens in the mountains are very spiritual, so what did that kitten want to tell us that time?"

"So, in this way, we followed the past. Fortunately, we did this at the time, and finally found the old lady who sprained her ankle on the mountainside."

"Yes, I remember this too." Yuan Shasha finished speaking, and Lu Weiwei reacted.

Officer Wang couldn't help but said: "Could it be that this kitten wants to take us somewhere? Could it be that the kitten's mother is injured or something?"

"Who knows? How about... go and have a look?" Gu Chen also suggested.

Considering that it was also late at night, it was indeed difficult to investigate the mysterious man.

Even if everyone meets someone now, they all want to know why.

But now, everyone is watching this kitten turn its head three times, as if it is taking everyone somewhere.

I also thought of the kitten that everyone met in the mountains before, and suddenly felt that following the kitten to see it should be rewarding.

So everyone followed the kitten and kept walking under the dim street lights.

After bypassing two angled alleys, everyone suddenly heard the sound of a spatula.

Along with it, there were signs of human communication.

The kitten meowed at Gu Chen a few times before running into the alley.

At this moment, Gu Chen didn't care too much and just led everyone behind him.

When Gu Chen walked out of the dark alley, he discovered that there was a highway ahead, and on one side of the highway, there was a noodle stall.

At this moment, there were some men in work clothes sitting around the noodle stall, who seemed to be working the night shift at a nearby construction site, and everyone was chatting and laughing.

Many people were holding beers and eating fried noodles.

Seeing Gu Chen and others appearing in front of him, the sharp-eyed middle-aged fat boss also looked at the ground curiously, and then said with a smile:

"Okay, bring me another customer, okay, I will reward you with something to eat later."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fat middle-aged boss also waved the spatula, and with skillful movements, he quickly prepared a portion of fried noodles, and scraped it onto the dinner plate with a few "clangs".

He handed the fried noodles to a worker who was playing with his mobile phone and said, "Your fried noodles."

"Thank you." The worker who was playing with his mobile phone immediately took out the disposable chopsticks and put them on the table for a moment. Then he picked up a small jar on the table, poured the chili sauce into the noodles, and stirred it a few times.

Back in front of Gu Chen and others, the middle-aged fat boss also smiled and said: "Guys, what do you want to eat?"

"Ah?" Lu Weiwei froze on the spot, feeling that she wasn't here for a late-night snack at all.

But after hearing the boss's question and the fact that it was already early in the morning, my stomach couldn't help but growl when I smelled the fragrance.

Looking back at Gu Chen and the others, Lu Weiwei also smiled and said, "How about something to eat here?"

"That's fine." Officer Wang rubbed his stomach, which was exactly what he meant.

So Lu Weiwei quickly said: "Then let's have four beef fried noodles."

"Okay, you guys sit down at the empty seat over there for a moment, and I'll cook it for you right away." As the middle-aged boss spoke, he had already finished cleaning the iron pot.

The proficiency of the movements is simply done in one go without any pause.

Gu Chen took two steps forward, then stopped, turned his head and asked the middle-aged fat man, "By the way, boss, what did you mean when you said that this kitten brought you guests?"

In fact, Gu Chen brought everyone here with Mao Mao because he wanted to find out.

After all, he followed the kitten and saved an injured old lady.

But now, Gu Chen couldn't understand it.

When the middle-aged fat boss heard this, he immediately glanced at the little kitten sitting obediently at his feet, and couldn't help but smile and said:

"What are you talking about? This little wild cat usually likes to come to my stall to get food."

"Every time I finish my work, I will take out some food to feed it. Over time, we have reached a tacit understanding."

"Because my stall is only open at night, it always comes at night. Maybe it feels like it always eats my food. This little guy is a little embarrassed."

"So, one day, this little wild cat appeared in front of me again, but then there were some customers following it."

"That's it, this little guy feels very smart and helps me attract some customers every time."

Waving the shovel in his hand, frying the fried noodles in the pot, the middle-aged fat boss also continued:

"Presumably, the four of you followed this kitten here just now, right?"

"It's true." Listening to the boss's narration, Lu Weiwei on the side also smiled and said:
"Hey, let me go, this little kitten is really amazing, is it so attractive to customers?"

"At that time, it was always rubbing up and down under our feet, meowing all the time, and then leaving us, turning back every three steps, and always barking at us."

"We were curious, so we followed it. Unexpectedly, it actually wanted to attract customers to you?"

"Hahahaha!"

Listening to Lu Weiwei's story, the middle-aged fat boss couldn't help laughing and said: "It's normal. This guy often helps me attract customers like this."

"Anyway, it still helps me a lot, so as usual, I will give it corresponding food as reward every time based on the number of guests it brings me."

"The more customers it attracts, the more food it gets. So, in order to eat more food, it will work very hard to attract customers to me."

While talking, everyone looked at the little wild cat, and immediately walked into the alley again, and quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Eh? It's gone." Yuan Shasha also reminded her when she saw this scene.

The middle-aged fat boss said indifferently: "It went to find customers for me again. Anyway, before I close the stall, it will come back to me and come to collect the reward."

"Haha, this cat is pretty good." Officer Wang was shocked when he heard these words:
"I didn't expect such a small cat to solicit customers for you. Oh, the world is really big, and there are all kinds of wonders. Today is a good experience for me."

"Isn't it?" As Yuan Shasha spoke, she also sat next to Officer Wang.

Lu Weiwei put her hands on her hips and couldn't help but said: "But this guy is too powerful, isn't he? In just a short time, it can attract four of our guests."

"How does it manage to attract customers to you every day?"

"It's very simple." The boss fried the noodles and kept adding seasonings to the pot, and he couldn't help but said:
"First of all, this little wild cat is quite beautiful and very lovable."

"Secondly, its intention is very obvious, which is to ask you to follow it. Ordinary people can see this."

"Most people will follow the kitten out of curiosity to find out."

"So most of the customers who come here have a certain desire to explore, and when they come to my noodle stall, they are infected by the atmosphere here."

"Many people just thought, since they are here, why not have something to eat here?"

Glancing at Lu Weiwei, the middle-aged fat boss asked: "Is this what you think?"

"Hey! It's true." Listening to the boss's story, Lu Weiwei was also eye-opening.

At this time, the beef fried noodles in the boss's pot seemed to be finished.

The boss quickly took out four plates and placed them one by one. Then he evenly distributed the fried noodles in the pot among the four plates and said, "Your beef fried noodles are ready."

"So fast?" At the same time that the boss completed the action, Lu Weiwei was also stunned.

You know, just now I was chatting with the boss, and in a split second, the four portions of beef fried noodles I asked for were already finished.

The smoothness of this movement is simply beyond my imagination.

The middle-aged fat boss also wiped the oil stains on his hands with a rag on the side and said:
"It's nothing? It's just that I've been doing it for many years and I'm good at it."

"thank you boss."

Lu Weiwei carried two plates of fried noodles and walked directly to the dining table, while Gu Chen followed closely with the other two plates.

"Boss, another case of beer."

At this moment, a group of workers were shouting at a stall nearby.

"Okay, right away." After the words fell, the middle-aged fat boss skillfully moved a case of beer from behind him, and delivered it directly to the workers.

After returning, the boss began to use the rag in his hand to clean up the garbage on the stove.

Lu Weiwei and the others were full of praise when they ate the beef fried noodles.

Glancing at the middle-aged boss behind her, Lu Weiwei asked curiously: "Boss, you have been doing business here for a long time, right?"

"That's right." After the boss cleaned the stove, he swept the garbage into the trash can, then sat on a plastic stool nearby and talked eloquently:
"I have been doing this kind of mobile stall business for almost 10 years. It's just that this year there are several construction sites here, so I do business here every night."

"So that's the case?" Listening to the middle-aged fat boss's narration, Gu Chen also asked curiously:

"Then you should be very familiar with the characters in this area, right?"

"Well, how should I put this? After all, I only do business at night, but I still have some impressions on everyone who has eaten here."

"If it were daytime, I probably wouldn't have seen it."

"Then what time do you open for business?" Yuan Shasha asked while eating fried noodles.

"Well, I started at about 5 p.m. and worked until I closed the stall at about 3 a.m.," said the fat middle-aged boss.

"That is to say, you have actually come into contact with a lot of people. At least you are familiar with this area? Is it understandable?" Gu Chen heard the key information and asked in confirmation.

After all, judging from the business hours of the middle-aged fat boss, the middle-aged fat boss actually covers dinner time.

And Gu Chen also wanted to find out about the mysterious man through the middle-aged fat boss.

The middle-aged fat boss also looked at the people with a smile and asked curiously: "Yes, but why are you asking these questions? What do you do?"

Without thinking too much, Gu Chen took out the police officer's card from his pocket and showed it in front of the fat middle-aged boss.

After confirming that the middle-aged fat boss saw it clearly, he took back the ID and said, "We are here to inquire about you."

"Uh... do you have any specific photos?" Seeing that they all seemed to be policemen, the smile of the middle-aged fat boss disappeared immediately.

Instead, he started to become cautious.

Gu Chen directly took out his mobile phone and clicked on various previous surveillance screenshots about the mysterious man.

Take the initiative to stand up and prepare to walk towards the boss.

The boss was one step ahead of Gu Chen. He carried the red plastic stool directly to Gu Chen's table, took Gu Chen's mobile phone and started checking it.

"These photos are surveillance screenshots, but we can't see the person's appearance clearly. I don't know if you have any impression of this person?"

Gu Chen also expressed his problem and stared at the fat middle-aged boss in front of him.

At this moment, the middle-aged fat boss also frowned and said thoughtfully:
"This person looks familiar. He must have eaten in my store often."

"Often? How long?" Officer Wang heard this and quickly asked.

The fat middle-aged boss raised his head and thought. After a moment, he nodded slightly and continued:

"I remember that this person has some impressions. The first time he came to my place for late-night snacks was probably a month ago, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged fat boss suddenly changed his words: "Oh no, it should be a month and a half ago, yes, it was a month and a half ago."

"This person should live over there in Fude Community. I remember it like this."

Hearing what the middle-aged fat boss said, Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha suddenly looked at each other.

This is indeed consistent with the man everyone is looking for.

Moreover, the mysterious man did get off the car at the entrance of Fude Community.

After careful calculation, everything seemed to be right.

So Yuan Shasha quickly asked: "Boss, has he ever chatted with you?"

"Yes." The middle-aged boss handed the phone back to Gu Chen and tried to think back and said:
"As long as my place is not busy, I will chat with customers or something."

"While chatting with the customer, I learned that he lives in Fude Community." "Then do you know what he does?" Gu Chen asked again.

"What do you do? I guess... you make music?" As the middle-aged fat boss spoke, he took out a pack of cheap cigarettes from his pocket and distributed them to Gu Chen and Officer Wang.

After seeing that both of them declined, he lit one on his own.

After puffing for a while, the middle-aged fat boss continued: "I remember that he seemed to have told me that he was in the music industry."

"I asked him, are you a singer? He said he is just a nobody, a singer or something? Out of reach."

"I feel that these people who make music work very hard. It feels like they invest a lot but get very little in return."

"Is he in a band?" Gu Chen thought of Hu Zhe and Zhang Ying, who were in a metal band.

As for Sister Jin, only senior musicians will understand her.

Therefore, Gu Chen judged that the mysterious man might also be a senior musician, otherwise he would not know about Sister Jin's situation.

"Being in a band?" When the middle-aged fat boss heard Gu Chen's words, he hesitated for a few seconds, and then said slowly:
"I remember that he didn't seem to tell me this. He just told me that he was in the music industry."

"Anyway, from the conversation with him, I can probably guess that he is just an ordinary musician who usually rents in Fude Community."

"Because the rent here is relatively cheap compared to other places in Jiangnan City."

"You have to say, if he is a senior musician, he must be very profitable, and he will not come to a cheap noodle stall like mine for late-night snacks."

"Besides, living here, it's a long way to the city, and the transportation there every day is actually quite hard."

"So, I made my own judgment. He should be an ordinary musician, maybe a resident singer in a bar, or a post-production DJ or something like that."

"And I don't make much money. I'm the kind of person who spends money more cautiously. That's probably the impression I have."

"You said it very well." Seeing that the middle-aged fat boss could describe the man's general situation in such detail, Lu Weiwei also sincerely admired him.

The middle-aged fat boss smiled and said: "Where is it? I am in the late-night snack business here and have met all kinds of people, so I know everyone's basic situation fairly well."

"After all, the people who come to my place for late-night snacks are not rich, they just want to get cheap."

He looked up at the high-rise buildings across the road that had not yet had their safety nets removed. The middle-aged fat boss said again:

"I mainly do business at several construction sites across the street. There are more workers there, and they often work overtime at night."

"So, at night, especially after early morning, business will be better."

"Many workers who don't work the night shift, or who have finished get off work, will come in groups to my place for late-night snacks, drinks, etc."

Turning to look around, the middle-aged fat boss also smiled and said: "Did you see? Except for you, almost everyone here is a worker from the construction site over there."

"I saw it." Lu Weiwei nodded silently and continued to ask:
"By the way, boss, I also want to ask, when did that person come to your shop for consumption? What time exactly?"

"Uh, this...let me think about it." It felt like Lu Weiwei's question was too precise, and the middle-aged fat boss felt that he needed to think about it in the long term.

After a short thought, the middle-aged fat boss slowly said: "By the way, that person should be after midnight, around midnight, until 1:[-], right? Basically, this is the time period every time he comes. .”

"Are you coming every day? Or..."

"I don't come here every day." Before Yuan Shasha could finish her words, the middle-aged fat boss quickly explained:
"Sometimes it's three or four days, sometimes it's a week, it's not fixed."

"That's it." Yuan Shasha nodded silently, and then asked again:
"Then do you know any other specific information about this person? The more detailed the better? For example, what habits does he have?"

"This one……"

It felt like he was being questioned as a clue witness. The middle-aged fat boss felt a little embarrassed, but he was still willing to cooperate:
"I don't know this person very well, because I often come to my place to spend money. Everyone just nods and says hello when we meet."

"He sits here eating noodles with me. Sometimes he chats with me, and sometimes he plays with his mobile phone."

"I also had some impressions of him during various chats with him."

After the words fell, the middle-aged fat boss also gestured with his hands and explained to everyone:

"For example, I learned through chatting with him that he is a musician and rents in the nearby Fude Community. His salary is not very high, and he is alone."

"As for other information, I haven't really found out. After all, he will leave after eating his supper and taking a short rest. That's it."

"Okay, thank you very much." After listening to the middle-aged fat boss, Gu Chen also thanked him, then took out one of his business cards and handed it to the boss and said:
"If you meet this person again, remember to call us and use this number on your business card."

"And you have to remember..."

After the words fell, Gu Chen turned his head and looked around.

There were still all kinds of noises around, and the workers only focused on playing and making noise among themselves, not paying attention to Gu Chen and the others.

In addition, the construction site across the road made some mechanical noise from time to time, so only a few people could hear clearly the conversation between Gu Chen and the boss.

But Gu Chen still reminded: "We are looking for him. I hope you won't leak it or tell him."

"I understand." After all, the boss is a man with rich social experience. After hearing what Gu Chen said, he quickly understood the secret and nodded to confirm:

"Did he commit something? But please don't worry. If he comes to my place again to spend money, I will notify you as soon as possible without alerting him. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes." Seeing that her boss was sensible, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Then, Gu Chen asked again: "Then do you remember what he looks like?"

"Well... I know that, but I didn't use my cell phone to take a picture of his appearance?" The middle-aged fat boss also felt a little worried when he heard what Gu Chen said.

But Gu Chen quickly took out a sketch pen from his body.

Lu Weiwei laid down a piece of paper to record the pages of the book and helped Gu Chen lay it on the table.

Officer Wang also reminded: "Can you describe now, what does that person look like? We will draw him right now."

"Draw it?" After hearing what Officer Wang said and looking at Gu Chen, the middle-aged fat boss hesitated:

"Can this be painted?"

"Let's talk about whether it looks like it or not. First, describe the person's appearance and give us a reference." Yuan Shasha also reminded.

"Okay." Feeling that he was cooperating with the police in handling the case and thinking that he could help, the middle-aged fat boss no longer hesitated and immediately began to think back:
"I remember, that person has a narrow head, tall and thin body, thin eyebrows, and small eyes."

"Where's the nose?" Gu Chen quickly drew the basic frame based on the middle-aged fat boss's description.

"Nose? High nose bridge, no, it shouldn't be too high, just medium."

"The mouth is a bit big, oh, the upper lip is a bit turned out."

"The chin...the chin is a bit pointed, and the jawline is quite obvious..."

As the middle-aged fat boss described more and more situations, the sketches in Gu Chen's hands also continued to enrich in descriptions.

After the fat middle-aged boss revealed the last details, Gu Chen scratched the sketch pen in his hand a few times, then picked up the paper and looked at the middle-aged boss and asked, "Is this this person?"

"Eh?" Also impressed by Gu Chen's painting skills, the fat middle-aged boss was stunned for a moment, and his head tilted forward involuntarily.

After observing carefully for a few seconds, he looked at Gu Chen in disbelief, gave a thumbs up and said:

"Comrade police, you are really good at it. With this level of painting, you must have graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, right?"

"Don't talk about it, I'll just ask you, do you look like it?" Gu Chen didn't want to waste too much time with the fat middle-aged boss, so he asked again.

The middle-aged fat boss nodded silently, and said involuntarily: "Don't say it, I really feel like I've seen a real person when you draw this picture, and the one you drew is called a portrait."

"How similar are they?" Officer Wang was unsure and asked one more question.

"It's probably close to ten," said the fat middle-aged boss.

With this reply, everyone suddenly felt confident and looked at each other.

So, after everyone quickly finished the beef fried noodles, paid the money, packed up their things, and then walked towards Fude Community along the alley they came from just now.

Because everyone had investigated Fude Community before, they discovered that there was only one gate in the entire community.

Because the old community was built many years ago, the planning is somewhat unsatisfactory.

There is basically no road behind the community, so there is only one road in front of the gate.

Gu Chen and others came to the car.

Considering that it would be easy to alert someone, everyone parked the police car far away from Fude Community.

At this moment, everyone returned to the car. Gu Chen first sent the sketch he drew by himself to He Junchao, and asked He Junchao to use AI to concretize the appearance of the character.

Then he called Ding Liang and He Junchao and asked them to drive over in a civilian car so that everyone could stay at the door.

Then Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong can drive back in their own police cars.

……

……

At 3 o'clock in the morning, as Ding Liang drove a civilian car and slowly parked next to the parking space of Gu Chen's police car, Gu Chen lowered the window and looked at Ding Liang.

Afterwards, the people in the two cars quickly switched vehicles in a quiet state.

Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong drove the police car back to the branch.

Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha continued to drive the civilian car and drove slowly to the entrance of Fude Community.

It just so happens that there is a free parking space here, which is at an oblique angle to the entrance.

A few people sat in the car and could monitor every move at the gate.

"The location here is very good. From now on, everyone will take turns to be on duty and observe the gate of Fude Community."

"Once you find that a man like this appears, you must wake everyone up in time." Gu Chen also assigned tasks in the car.

"No problem." Everyone heard the words and echoed in unison.

Gu Chen then said again: "Then I will be on duty first. You guys can sleep for a while. I will wake you up at about the same time."

When Lu Weiwei heard this, she quickly said: "Junior brother Gu, let me come first. You always say that you are on duty first. Why do you have a two-hour shift? In the end, you shouldered everything by yourself. This made us It’s so embarrassing.”

"Yes, Senior Brother Gu. Every time you take turns on duty, you do everything yourself. This is too much for your body. Senior Sister Lu and I will take the first two shifts."

Yuan Shasha also felt a little sorry.

Judging from past experience, Gu Chen has taken great care of everyone, but everyone can't just take it for granted.

Of course, Gu Chen would not tell everyone that he had an energy drink that could withstand fatigue that ordinary people could not imagine.

But since Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha said this, if I still want to refute and continue to take over everything, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the two of them.

After thinking about it, Gu Chen could only agree: "Okay, I'll be in third place."

"Don't be third, Gu Chen. Leave these hours of the night shift to us. I, Old Wang, will be third. Just rest and leave the rest to us."

Officer Wang also said it with confidence, feeling that it is time to share the pressure of Gu Chen.

Seeing the humility of the three partners in the car, Gu Chen reluctantly agreed:

"Okay, I'll help you all, and leave the monitoring during the day to me."

"Row."

"Then it's settled."

"You go to bed first, I'll keep an eye on you."

……

It was also through everyone's words that everyone had finished scheduling.

Gu Chen tilted his seat a little and lay down on it, pretending to rest. But in fact, Gu Chen couldn't sleep at all. He just quietly looked at Lu Weiwei, who was looking at the entrance of Fude Community.

From the back seat, Officer Wang's snoring soon came.

As time passed by, Lu Weiwei seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, because three or four o'clock in the morning is often the most tired time of the day.

Although Lu Weiwei tried her best to hold on, she felt tired. At first, Lu Weiwei's head was still in a knot, but later, she leaned directly against the car door and her eyes began to become blurry.

"Alas! Senior Sister Lu, it's not that I want to be the first on duty, it's really..."

Gu Chen thought to himself, but there was nothing he could do because Gu Chen was very aware of Lu Weiwei's habits.

At this time, fatigue can make Lu Weiwei fall asleep quickly.

If there is no double shift, it will be difficult for one person to carry it out.

Thinking that Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha were still sleeping soundly in the back row, Gu Chen simply helped Lu Weiwei to lie down on the seat while he observed the gate of Fude Community.
