I am a super cop

Chapter 2364 The bloody white cat [two in one chapter]

How could the man in white No. 10 dare to refuse?When Gu Chen handed over the phone, he quickly took it.

Then, within the range given by Gu Chen, one of the prescription locations was marked for Gu Chen to check:

"right here."

Gu Chen squinted his eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

"You can't be wrong. Look here. This is a grassland. After this path, there is an uninhabited village."

After a pause, the man No. 10 in white pointed to one of the paths: "Do you see this? This is the road into the village. You can park your car here and go around here."

"There are... about a dozen empty houses inside. We usually gather in the tallest house in the middle because the door lock there has been destroyed by us."

"You are breaking into a private house." Lu Weiwei said angrily after listening to the story of the man No. 10 in white.

The man No. 10 in white nodded silently and admitted proactively: "Yes, the house belongs to others, but no one has lived in it."

"And we often camp there. It's empty anyway, so we break the door lock and live in it."

"If the owner comes back, we'll just pay for the lock and some camping fees. I think the owner won't mind. After all, the houses are old, and the plants have grown along the eaves and onto the roof. "

"Okay." Seeing that the man in white clothes No. 10 spoke clearly, Lu Weiwei didn't want to get entangled with him, so she immediately asked: "Then how many days do you usually live here?"

"Not necessarily. Sometimes it's a day or two, sometimes a week. It's just a short break from the limelight."

"You also know that Zhang Quan specializes in collecting debts from people, and he has offended some people."

"So, those of us who sometimes need our own place to live, and this is a perfect venue for that."

"Yeah." After hearing what the man in white No. 10 said, Officer Wang also patted him on the shoulder and said:
"If what you said is true, then I thank you, but if you play tricks on us again, you know the consequences."

"Oh, I don't dare." Feeling that Officer Wang was sincerely trying to scare him, the man No. 10 in white also quickly showed weakness and said:

"You all said that this may be involved in a murder case. If I play tricks on you, what good will it do to me?"

"I don't want to get involved. I just hope you can find Zhang Quan. I don't want to care about anything else, and I don't dare to care about it."

"Then will you secretly inform Zhang Quan?" Yuan Shasha said at the side.

Man No. 10 in white immediately put his palms together, bowed to everyone and said:

"Oh, dear ancestors, I can't get through Zhang Quan's phone number, how can I tell him the news?"

"But you didn't tell us that there might be other ways of contacting you?"

"Zhang Quan's cell phone can't get through. Maybe he has another cell phone?"

"Absolutely not." After listening to Yuan Shasha's analysis, the man No. 10 in white quickly waved his hand and denied:

"The only contact between us is this one number. If we can't get through, it means we can't be contacted. There are no other numbers. Please believe me on this."

It felt like this No. 10 in white was almost scared to death by everyone. He was also a coward. It was not obvious that he had any actor-level performance. Gu Chen also winked at everyone.

Everyone understood, packed up their things, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Gu Chen recorded the identity information and contact information of the man No. 10 in white, handed him the business card of the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch, and reminded him:
"If there is news about Zhang Quan, remember to inform us as soon as possible. This is the phone number of our office. You should know what to do?"

"I know." Understanding what Gu Chen meant, the man No. 10 in white took the business card with both hands decisively, then bowed respectfully to Gu Chen and watched Gu Chen and others leave.

Not long after Gu Chen left, he used his master-level observation skills to hear that the woman in denim overalls was complaining to the man No. 10 in white:
"Didn't you say that you are the second generation of rich people? A chef is just a chef, and he is probably still an apprentice, right? You dare to brag like that?"

"That's right." Seeing this, the best friend next to the woman in denim overalls couldn't help but joke:
"You don't have much ability, but you still try to imitate other people's pretense. Haha, you've tricked girls a lot, right?"

Man No. 10 in white: "..."

It felt like it was all Lu Weiwei's fault. She revealed her profession in a loud voice, which instantly exposed the man in white, No. 10.

……

……

On the other side, Gu Chen drove and took everyone to the Jiangnan Lake Scenic Area.

Due to the large area of ​​Jiangnan Lake Scenic Area, there are developed areas and undeveloped areas.

The location that the man in white No. 10 told him was in an undeveloped area of ​​Jiangnan Lake.

This area is also a corner of Jiangnan Lake. When Gu Chen and others came here according to the navigation, the sun was slowly setting.

The grass in the entire area was given a golden filter by the setting sun.

"It should be here, right?" Lu Weiwei looked at the map on her phone and guessed.

Gu Chen had already memorized the specific location on the map, so he parked the vehicle in an open area and then motioned for everyone to get off.

Everyone came to the roadside and looked at the shoal in front of them, which was all green pasture.

"Sure enough, it is a natural check-in spot for Internet celebrities. Taking photos here should be very photogenic, right?" Yuan Shasha was also attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of her.

Officer Wang smiled and said: "These people are really good at picking places. They can be found in such a remote place."

"They are not those photography enthusiasts. These people just wander around and like to go everywhere to collect scenery. Ordinary people can't find such beautiful scenery." Lu Weiwei sighed softly and quickly looked in the direction of Gu Chen.

At this moment, Gu Chen had already taken off his equipment and stared at the area in front of him.

Because this place is relatively remote, there are a lot of weeds and many plants blocking the surrounding view.

But Gu Chen knew that to go to the uninhabited village, he needed to cross this road and then enter from a small road.

"It should go from here." After searching for a while, Gu Chen still didn't see the intersection.

However, relying on his own marks on the mobile phone map, Gu Chen was still able to determine the basic direction based on the on-site situation.

So everyone followed Gu Chen and soon came to a narrow path.

Since no one lives here, the weeds on both sides of the road have long been higher than people's heads.

The path in front of it might have been a bit spacious before, but now it looks like a curtain that isolates it from the outside world.

Officer Wang couldn't help but marveled: "It's really a bit of a paradise. Walking through this weed field, it feels like you can enter a new world."

"Let me clear the way." Gu Chen pulled out his mechanical baton and began to move the weeds in front of him to both sides.

Because he was afraid of alerting others, Gu Chen was very careful in his movements, and everyone tried to avoid making any noise.

After walking around for a while, Gu Chen discovered that the paths here were winding and winding, and so were the weeds, making it seem like they were entering a maze.

After realizing that the scenery in front of him began to slowly appear in his sight, Gu Chen realized that he had walked out of this path.

Arriving at the open area, Gu Chen looked around and found that the uninhabited village was in the area ahead. The road connecting the uninhabited village was very narrow, and it was estimated that only one car could pass.

But if you drive there now, you will probably leave various scratches of weeds on both sides of the vehicle.

"These places should be the areas where villagers used to farm. Unfortunately, they are all abandoned now." Officer Wang looked at the fields in front of him and felt that it was a pity to waste them.

Yuan Shasha said indifferently: "The residents have moved away from here, so it is natural for them to keep these fields here."

"After all, no one goes to farm anymore. Maybe these villagers would go to breeding before, but it's impossible now."

"I feel like it would be good to plant some medicinal materials. Good medicine can be found in the mountains." Officer Wang also said casually.

But Gu Chen was already one step ahead of everyone else, heading straight towards the uninhabited village along the winding road in front of him.

When everyone saw this, they immediately followed him.

There is a building at the entrance of the village with some faded propaganda slogans painted on the wall.

As he walked inside, Gu Chen found that there seemed to be only two rows in the entire village.

One row is against the roadside, and the other is against the mountain behind.

Moreover, the entire uninhabited village is spread out in strips.

Gu Chen directly found the house on higher ground based on the suggestion of the man in white No. 10.

So Gu Chen stopped and reminded Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha: "You two stay here and observe the movements in the outer area. Stand separately, not too far apart, so that you can take care of them."

"Senior Brother Wang and I will go in and search to see if Zhang Quan is hiding here."

"Okay." While speaking, Lu Weiwei also took out the mechanical baton and took it in her hand, echoing: "I will stay here and not let anyone come in or out at will."

"Okay." Seeing that the perimeter security had been completed, Gu Chen winked at Officer Wang, and the two of them immediately took out their batons and started walking towards the old house ahead.

There are all old houses here, not a single new one.

And this high-up old house is in the second row of houses, close to the mountain.

Therefore, Gu Chen and Officer Wang were extra careful when inspecting.

When they arrived at the door, Gu Chen and Officer Wang did not rush in, but took the lead in checking the branch of the door.

Officer Wang walked around to the back row and then back to the front door, carefully reminding Gu Chen: "There is a door in the back, but it is locked. Only the front door can be entered."

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently and looked at the lock position of the front door. It was obviously open and not locked. Only then did he believe what the man No. 10 in white said before.

Without saying much, the two quickly used mechanical batons to gently push open the wooden door.

Because the wooden structures here are relatively old, when Gu Chen and Officer Wang pushed open the wooden door, a harsh noise was heard one after another.

In order to prevent the noise from continuing to prolong, Gu Chen simply pushed away at once.

With a "squeaking" sound, Gu Chen and Officer Wang immediately walked into the house.

However, at this moment, all I saw was a dilapidated scene.

Everything here seems to have no trace of human movement, and many items are piled randomly.

Gu Chen signaled Officer Wang to check the right side, while he walked towards the left side.

Gu Chen checked the stove and found some traces here, so he quickly lowered his body and sniffed it with his nose.

"Someone left food here, probably not long ago. Could it be that Zhang Quan has really been here?"

After noticing some new smells coming from the stove, Gu Chen became more vigilant, feeling that Zhang Quan should be hiding around.

In the trash cans on the ground, some food waste bags were also discarded.

Officer Wang on the other side also returned to Gu Chen after completing the inspection.

"How is it?" Gu Chen asked Officer Wang.

"That's strange." Officer Wang frowned and couldn't help but said, "There was a lot of garbage in the place I checked. It should be newly left."

"I conclude that this old house must have been lived in in the past few days."

"Isn't it?" Gu Chen pointed to the stove and reminded:
"There are also obviously some new traces here, as if someone has lived there."

Looking up and looking around, Gu Chen added: "Except for some of the furnishings here that have not been touched, there are traces of people living in other places."

"Perhaps they only live here for a short time and will not destroy the owner's belongings at will." As Officer Wang spoke, he also looked upstairs.

This is a two-story structure, and there is a wooden staircase connecting the second floor.

So Gu Chen and Officer Wang continued to climb up the stairs step by step.

The footsteps on the wooden stairs also made some obvious "dong dong dong" sounds.

But it was difficult for Gu Chen and Officer Wang to conceal these movements.

Just like pushing the door just now, no matter how lightly you move, you can't change the fact that the noise is made.

I thought that instead of doing this, it would be better to inspect this place openly.

So Gu Chen quickened his pace, arrived at the second floor, and quickly began to check the room on the left.

Officer Wang also acted quickly and searched directly to the right.

After searching, Gu Chen quickly returned to the corridor on the second floor. He saw Officer Wang sticking his head out of the room and shaking his head. Gu Chen knew that there was still no one in the room.

Officer Wang returned to Gu Chen and reminded him, "Gu Chen, there are some cardboard boxes piled up in this room. It seems that these people must have slept on the cardboard boxes before."

"It's just that I don't see Zhang Quan now, but there are still some traces of food on the ground, which should have been left recently."

"I don't have it here." After listening to Officer Wang's explanation, Gu Chen also informed him about the inspection on the left side:

"Although the house on my side is empty, it doesn't look like anyone is living in it. I guess that's the room they live in."

"Maybe." Officer Wang glanced back and then said:

"Gu Chen, tell me, is this Zhang Quan somewhere outside and hasn't come back yet?"

"After all, if you think about it, even if Zhang Quan wants to hide here, he can't hide here forever, right?" "He always has to go out to stretch his muscles and go for a walk in the mountains, otherwise he will stay in this old house all day. In the room, won’t you be suffocated to death?”

"What's more, his phone is still turned off. If it were me, I would definitely be very upset."

"That makes sense." After listening to Officer Wang's suggestion, Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but say:
"It seems that this is indeed the area where Zhang Quan is hiding. We have only obtained the information through the man No. 10 in white. However, it is difficult to say whether Zhang Quan lives here."

With a faint sigh, Gu Chen said again: "Let's go out."

"Okay." Officer Wang was also uncomfortable with the smell in the room and wanted to leave this place for a long time.

So he followed Gu Chen and walked out of the old house again and came outside.

When Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha saw this, they quickly gathered around.

"How?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"There are traces of human habitation, and some residual food and garbage were also found at the site, which should have been left recently." Gu Chen sighed softly and said helplessly:

"However, we found no trace of Zhang Quan in the room."

"We suspect that Zhang Quan went out for a walk and hasn't come back yet." Officer Wang on the side also added.

Yuan Shasha frowned slightly and said angrily: "Then we don't know how long he will be out for, right?"

"It doesn't matter." Gu Chen looked around and reminded: "If he is really hiding in this area, then we will definitely be able to find him."

"Now, we can check all the surrounding houses to see if there are other places to enter the old houses with locked doors."

"Don't let Zhang Quan fool you. He may have climbed into the house from some areas of the old house where the door can be locked. We need to search carefully."

"It makes sense." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei also took the initiative to ask:

"Junior Brother Gu, if you don't let Lao Wang and Xiao Yuan stay outside, I'll check the rest of the house with you to see if there are any signs of anyone crawling in."

"That's okay." Seeing that Lu Weiwei had said so, it was hard for him to say anything else.

After looking at Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, Gu Chen also said: "Then please trouble Senior Brother Wang and Xiao Yuan to pay attention to what's going on around them."

"Especially since the weeds are very high here, maybe this guy is hiding in the weeds."

"Don't worry, we will definitely strengthen our vigilance." Yuan Shasha affirmed after listening to Gu Chen's explanation.

Afterwards, everyone separated at the intersection. Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei turned back to the entrance of the village, starting from the first house.

Probably just check the door of the house, is it really locked?

Then check around to see if there is any possibility of someone climbing into the second floor of the house.

This kind of inspection is relatively easy and it is easy to find the problem.

Therefore, while constantly inspecting these old houses, Lu Weiwei always looks towards the top of the houses.

After checking the last old house, Lu Weiwei shook her head at Gu Chen and said helplessly:
"It seems that these houses are all locked, and there are no signs of anyone climbing in."

"It seems that the man No. 10 in white was right. They only broke the door lock of one of the old houses and lived in that old house. They did not enter the other houses."

"Maybe." After hearing Lu Weiwei's report, Gu Chen felt helpless and could only walk outside the house.

There is a fenced yard, but it is overgrown with weeds and looks unkempt due to neglect.

When Gu Chen came in, he pushed aside the weeds at the gate of the fence and found that there seemed to be no trace of anyone coming in here.

After all, the yard is paved with some sand and gravel, but after being washed away by all kinds of rain, it has long become extremely soft.

When you step on it, it's easy to make a mark.

But there were no traces of footprints in the entire yard.

"Let's go." Seeing that there was nothing to gain here, Gu Chen sighed softly and prepared to take Lu Weiwei away from here.

But at this moment, Lu Weiwei suddenly stopped Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, wait a moment."

"What's wrong?" Gu Chen looked back and found Lu Weiwei standing there, staring at the side of the house.

Gu Chen followed Lu Weiwei's gaze and looked directly at the target area. Only then did he realize that a white wild cat was hiding in the pile of wood piles on the side of the house.

He also saw Lu Weiwei staring at him. The white wild cats seemed to be very alert, and one of them maintained a vigilant posture.

No one noticed the white cat just now, so the white cat lay there, pretending that nothing happened, and waited for the two strangers Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei to leave quickly.

Since the white cat doesn't make any noise when walking, the two of them didn't notice it just now.

But now, the white cat seems to be highly wary of Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei.

"That cat should be wild, right?" Lu Weiwei said.

Gu Chen walked to Lu Weiwei, observed briefly, and nodded silently: "That's right? After all, no one lives here anymore."

"If this feral cat is going to survive, it needs to go out and find food on its own."

"Can that be understood in this way?" Listening to what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei suddenly had a whim, and turned back to glance at Gu Chen, and then said:

"Junior Brother Gu, you also said that no one lives here, so if the night owl wants to eat, he needs to find it by himself, and there will be no human feeding."

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded in agreement.

Lu Weiwei nodded silently and added: "What if, I mean if, if there was a lot of food waste left by humans on the second floor of the old house we just inspected."

"So, for this wild cat, what do you think is the chance of digging in and finding these food scraps?"

Listening to Lu Weiwei's analysis, Gu Chen blurted out: "It should be possible to climb in, maybe because Zhang Quan and his gang often come to the old house, right?"

"Therefore, the windows of many old houses are left open, probably for ventilation and to prevent unpleasant odors from gathering inside the old houses."

"Yes, it is easy for wild cats to climb in through the ajar windows. In other words, wild cats can find the food residues." Lu Weiwei said, looking at Gu Chen unconsciously.

Gu Chen was stunned for two seconds before he realized what Lu Weiwei said and said:

"Yes, but when we checked, the food residues were still fresh. This means that these foods are the latest ones left behind and the wild cats haven't had time to find them yet."

After the words fell, Gu Chen looked at the white wild cat. The wild cat seemed to be still wary of the two of them and did not dare to make any move.

"Senior Sister Lu, let's exit first." Gu Chen reminded.

"Okay." Lu Weiwei also had this intention, and quickly followed Gu Chen, exiting outside the fence, and then hid behind a patch of weeds to observe secretly.

Not long after, the white wild cat that had been wary of Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen walked out of the wooden pile and began to walk cautiously towards the high house.

The wild cat is very vigilant. Although it knows that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei are hiding nearby, it will still walk towards the taller house.

Until Gu Chen saw the figure of the wild cat disappearing from his sight.

"Junior Brother Gu, the wild cat has left." Seeing that there was no trace of the wild cat, Lu Weiwei also reminded him.

But seeing Gu Chen still staring at the place where the wild cat disappeared, in a daze, Lu Weiwei was a little puzzled and quickly asked:

"Junior Brother Gu, what's wrong with you?"

"That wild cat seems to have some red marks on its body." Gu Chen said.

"Did you see red marks on wild cats?" Lu Weiwei was stunned and said weakly: "But why didn't I notice it?"

"It's the thigh of a wild cat." Gu Chen said and fell into a brief thought.

After a while, Gu Chen looked up at the houses higher up and said to himself:
"This white wild cat has white hair all over its body, but why is there a red mark on its thigh? What is this dye? It's..."

After the words fell, Gu Chen suddenly looked at Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei seemed to have quickly thought of a possibility after Gu Chen's prompting.

"is blood!"

The two spoke almost in unison.

"Yes, it's probably blood." Gu Chen took a deep breath and his expression became nervous.

Lu Weiwei also turned blue and said quickly: "Junior brother Gu, where did the white wild cat get the blood in this wilderness? Or did it get it from hunting? But it's not like that. Cats love to be clean."

"Yes, cats love to be clean." Gu Chen agreed affirmatively, and then said:
"Sister Lu, let's go back to the old house now. I want to see it again."

"Yes." Lu Weiwei nodded immediately when she heard that Gu Chen had this intention.

Afterwards, the two of them slowed down their pace and began to jog towards the house they had inspected before.

Arriving at the outskirts of the house, Gu Chen signaled Lu Weiwei to pay attention to the ajar window above the house, while Gu Chen re-entered through the door and began to look for traces of the wild cat.

Returning to this old house, Gu Chen gently closed the door, and suddenly felt that the area he had checked before seemed to become strange.

Since he lost track of the wild cat, Gu Chen was not sure whether the wild cat would come to this old house in search of food.
Due to uncertainty, Gu Chen did not dare to act rashly.

But at this moment, Gu Chen suddenly noticed that there was a faint, thumping sound coming from above the house.

"Could it be that cat?" Gu Chen thought of what happened when he and Officer Wang went up and downstairs together.

Although the two of them have kept quiet enough, they still make a lot of noise due to the effect of gravity.

But now, the noise was very weak, so Gu Chen judged that it should be the noise made by small animals.

Although the wild cat moved lightly, the wooden stairs were in disrepair and had long since rotted away.

Any creature that steps on it will make some faint noise.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen quickly found a place to hide and quietly observed the surrounding situation.

Not long after, Gu Chen noticed that the movement was getting closer and closer.

Immediately afterwards, there was no movement.

Then, Gu Chen quietly poked his head out and found that the white cat he met in the fenced yard was walking towards the stove.

There were rubbish and some food bags left by someone here. Therefore, the white cat seemed to be familiar with everything here and soon started rummaging through the trash can.

It didn't take long for Gu Chen to discover that the white cat began to enjoy some food residues in the food packaging bags. Although it was not much, it was obviously delicious to the white cat.

It seemed that he was aware that there were other smells around him, so while eating, the white cat suddenly froze, and then slowly looked around.

When Gu Chen saw this, he quickly took his head back.

However, the white cat seemed to have discovered Gu Chen's traces.

Soon, Gu Chen heard that the food waste bag that had made noise had long since stopped making any noise. Then, the white cat, who didn't know when, jumped out and came directly to Gu Chen.

One person and one cat, just looking at each other face to face.

Only then could Gu Chen get up close and discover that the white cat's thigh was indeed stained with some red marks.

"It's blood, yes, it's traces of blood." Gu Chen found the clue at a glance and identified the object stained on the white cat's thigh.

At this moment, the white cat seemed to be startled by Gu Chen's appearance. Before Gu Chen could react, he quickly ran upstairs with a "whoosh".

"Dong dong dong dong!"

After a fast-paced run, the white figure quickly disappeared from Gu Chen's sight like a bolt of lightning.

Of course, Gu Chen would not foolishly chase up to the second floor. Instead, he opened the door on the first floor, closed the door, and quickly came to Lu Weiwei.

"Junior Brother Gu, the white cat just jumped from the window into the mountain behind. That cat took advantage of the height of the mountain to jump directly into this old house."

Lu Weiwei finally saw the trace of the white cat and quickly explained to Gu Chen.

"I know that the white cat's legs are stained with blood. We must catch up with the white cat right away, right now." Gu Chen knew that if he didn't take action now, he would wait until the white cat disappeared. , then there is really no way.

So Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei also walked directly along the slope of the back mountain, using their hands to support themselves, and quickly climbed up the slope.

So I continued to chase the white cat in the direction it had just run.

Gu Chen came to a high ground and took advantage of the terrain to observe his surroundings.

It didn't take long for Gu Chen to find the trace of the white cat running.

Every time the white cat runs for a while, it will stop and look back vigilantly, mainly to observe whether humans will follow it.

Fortunately, Gu Chen hid behind a big tree and used the tree's cover to prevent himself from being discovered by the white cat.

The white cat walked up and down. After repeated testing, it was confirmed that there was no danger following it. Then it felt relieved and began to walk slowly and leisurely deep into the forest.
