Chapter 2377 The man who jumps over the wall in a hurry [two in one chapter]
In the office, Gu Chen felt very surprised when he heard what the fat man said.
It stands to reason that when a normal person goes to rent a warehouse, he or she has to at least shop around, or at least go back and forth on the price. These are normal operations.
But it can be heard from the fat man's tone that Hu Zhe seemed to be eager to win these two stalls.
Therefore, there is not much bargaining, just signing the contract.
Of course, these are in line with Gu Chen's expectations, because the person behind the scenes is not Hu Zhe, but the forces hiding behind Hu Zhe.
And Vujicic is just a signer.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen also sighed and quickly asked: "Is that contract still there?"
"Can electronic contracts be used?" said the fat middle-aged man.
"Okay, show me." Gu Chen said.
The fat middle-aged man didn't hesitate at all. He immediately opened the computer file and started looking for a specific date.
Then, open the electronic contract file.
Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang took a closer look and found that there were not many problems with the contract.
Officer Wang looked at the amount and asked the fat man: "Then the rent of your two stalls is expensive? Or is it cheap?"
"This one……"
"Truthfully." Seeing that the fat man was still hesitant, Officer Wang reminded him.
"Okay." The fat man didn't dwell on this, but said straightforwardly:
"To be honest, it's cheaper than an ordinary wet market stall. After all, it's right there and there's no traffic at all."
"But as a warehouse, it is a bit expensive. After all, it is inside the vegetable market and is quite close to the market stalls."
"Some vegetable merchants have set up their warehouses in this market, so it is more convenient to get things."
"So, the price is not too expensive, but it is not cheap either."
"Okay." It felt like the fat man was just beating around the bush, but from the fat man's tone, Officer Wang could roughly guess that the price was actually quite reasonable.
Lu Weiwei asked again: "After you sign the contract, does Hu Zhe have any other requirements?"
"No." The fat man shook his head and said truthfully:
"This customer is easier to get along with, maybe because he is young? He doesn't have many requirements."
"Originally, I thought he would let us install the lights in the warehouse. After all, there is only one incandescent lamp hanging at the intersection in the E5 area."
"And there are no lights shining inside the warehouse."
"Then why don't you install lights?" Lu Weiwei asked again.
The fat man smiled faintly and quickly explained: "Because this place cannot be rented out for a long time. It just so happens that there are some warehouse stalls, and their light bulbs sometimes get damaged."
"Then we will install the original light tubes in this warehouse directly in other stalls, so there will always be no lights here."
After a pause, the fat man continued: "But, this customer doesn't seem to care about this."
"I've even thought about it, ready for him to ask about installing light bulbs, and I can do it for him right away."
"But in the end, he didn't say anything and just left. I was a little confused at the time. I felt that this customer was quite nice."
"No lights?" Gu Chen was also confused after hearing this explanation.
You know, Hu Zhe went to the warehouse late at night and left early in the morning.
But if there is no light, what would Hu Zhe do in the dark corner of the warehouse?Does he need to carry a luminous body himself?
After all, it was a mystery, and Gu Chen didn't know what Hu Zhe was thinking at that time.
But one thing can be confirmed, Hu Zhe must have his own plans, and he doesn't want others to know.
After thinking about it, Gu Chen asked the fat man again: "What happened next? When Hu Zhe used these two stalls as warehouses, did you go there and see them?"
"Uh……"
"No, right?" Looking at the fat man's expression, Gu Chen could guess something.
The fat man didn't hide it, he nodded and admitted: "That's right, how can we have any free time to take care of him? The warehouse is rented out, we get the money, and then he enjoys the management services of our market, that's fine .”
"As for other things, we don't want to pay too much attention to them."
"So you don't know what exactly is in his warehouse, right?"
"Uh... I guess so." After hearing Gu Chen's words, the fat man nodded in agreement.
After understanding these situations, Gu Chen seemed to have guessed something, that is, before Hu Zhe rented two stalls, someone had actually known about the situation of the warehouse in advance.
But who could this person be?Of course Gu Chen knew that it must be someone inside the market.
But there are so many people inside the market here that it would be impossible to investigate them one by one.
If nothing else, just checking the merchants in this market seems to be an impossible task.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen hesitated.
Although I am constantly narrowing the scope of the investigation, it seems that the clues are still in an area that looks like the sea.
And what he has to do now is undoubtedly to find a needle in a haystack.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Chen also said slowly: "I would like to ask, does anyone here know the market layout very well?"
"This one……"
After hearing what Gu Chen said, the fat man hesitated for a few seconds and then said with a smile: "Our market is actually an old market. It has been in business for three or four years. This is the fourth year."
"If we want to say that those who know the layout of this market better, it should be the people in our office."
"After all, the floor plans of merchants and various market structure diagrams are all here with us."
“Sometimes, we can find out the specific situation of a merchant just by checking.”
"Who is familiar with Area E5, Warehouse No. 001 and Warehouse No. 002?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Well, generally speaking, it's only people within our market."
"Even some merchants within our market may not go to that place because it is just a corner."
"Okay." After receiving such a reply, Gu Chen probably knew that the market merchants or the personnel of the market management center had the best understanding of the layout of this area.
But how to find out the mastermind now?Obviously, it will take time to resolve.
Gu Chen was going to use the stupidest method, which was the elimination method.
Use the elimination method to exclude related persons within these markets one by one.
If we focus on the remaining most suspicious persons, we can at least narrow down the scope a lot.
Gu Chen stepped forward and said in a gentle tone: "Then please help me bring back a copy of the information on these merchants."
"Uh, this..."
Upon hearing what Gu Chen said, the fat man who had been relatively polite before suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Weiwei asked hurriedly: "What? Is it inconvenient?"
"It's not inconvenient, it's just...our leader has said that merchant information is the secret of our company and is absolutely not allowed to be given to outsiders."
"But we are investigating a case, and we don't want your business secrets." Officer Wang also told the truth.
The fat man also nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "I know this, but you may not know much about Mr. Zou, but he will definitely be extra cautious when it comes to business secrets."
"After all, shopping malls are like battlefields. Whoever masters the customer's information can occupy an absolute dominant position in the business war, right?"
"But..." After hearing what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei also looked puzzled and said:
"But the colleague you took over from before also allowed us to go to the warehouse to investigate and also allowed us to access customer information."
"Because we are the police handling cases, these situations..."
"Haha." Before Lu Weiwei could finish her words, the fat man smiled and said:
"Comrades police, I understand you very well, and I also understand my colleague very well."
"But what I want to tell you is that unless our President Zou personally authorizes it, anyone who leaks customer information without authorization will definitely be punished by our President Zou, that's for sure."
After a pause, the fat man also tugged on the collar of his jacket, and then said: "So, last night, my colleague must have informed Mr. Zou and explained the situation, right?"
"No, he didn't." Faced with the fat man's remarks, Officer Wang retorted directly.
"No?" After hearing what Officer Wang said, the fat man was stunned and said in disbelief:
"He didn't notify Mr. Zou and just let you investigate?"
"Are there still fake ones?" Lu Weiwei also asked with raised eyebrows.
"This guy is harmful." The fat man sighed and said helplessly: "This guy will definitely be scolded, and I don't have the authority here."
"But you just investigated the contract situation for us." Lu Weiwei said.
"That's because my colleague has already investigated it for you. I thought he reported it to our President Zou, but I didn't expect that he didn't."
With a faint sigh, the fat man also looked helpless: "If I had known this, I would have made a call first to communicate with Mr. Zou."
"Don't go to such trouble, right? Everyone knows that it is every citizen's obligation to cooperate with our police in case investigations." Officer Wang also understood.
But the fat man waved his hand helplessly: "That's all, I'm already cooperating with your investigation anyway. I'll just explain it to Mr. Zou later. I think he will curse a few curse words at most."
After the words fell, the fat man also walked back to the desk and reminded:
"The customer information table and the stall distribution map of these merchants are all in this file. You can copy it."
"Thank you, it's really helpful." Seeing that the fat man was quite understanding of justice, Gu Chen thanked him, then took out the mobile USB flash drive and started to copy the merchant information.
After copying the files, Gu Chen asked again: "What about the information sheet for the managers of the wet market in your Yuhua Logistics Park?"
"Do you want this too?" The fat man looked surprised.
Gu Chen nodded silently.
The fat man had no choice but to pick up the mouse on the table, click on another folder, and then said:
"Here, here is the contact list for the marketing management department, including basic information on all employees."
"Even the staff responsible for cleaning the market have their information here."
"This is best." Gu Chen appreciated the fat man's frankness and quickly copied the information.
After completing the operation, Gu Chen stood up, shook hands with the fat man and thanked him: "Thank you for supporting our work."
"Haha." Facing Gu Chen's enthusiasm, the fat man just smiled and said self-deprecatingly:
"Anyway, this scolding is inevitable."
"Don't be so pessimistic. Why don't we call your leader later to explain? I've never seen such a long-winded leader like you, and it's so cumbersome to cooperate with the investigation of the case?" Lu Weiwei felt that the other leader was making a fuss out of a molehill?
But the fat man explained: "You don't know something. There have been cases of theft in our market before, and some comrades from the police station came to us to investigate the situation."
"I also checked the merchant information within our market. Originally, it was just a very common thing, but because we didn't get the authorization from Mr. Zou, Mr. Zou directly fired the employees who managed the information."
"No way?" Listening to what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei suddenly felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with his worries.
Officer Wang also said angrily: "Does such a big boss have such a strong desire to control?"
"Isn't it?" The fat man picked up the thermos cup on the table, took a small sip, and explained:
"Our boss is good at everything, but he is too controlling, especially when it comes to business secrets. Without his permission, they must not be leaked."
"Last time the police station came to collect information, he got angry in the office. Now that we are providing these information files to the police without reporting them to him, I don't know if the boss will fire us."
"It's not that serious." Seeing the fat man demonizing his boss, Officer Wang quickly comforted him:
"Big deal, let's explain to your boss that this is nothing? Make sure he won't fire you because of this."
"Hey! Did you say this yourself?" Seeing Officer Wang saying the same thing, the fat man quickly took out his cell phone and asked:
"Then can you give me your phone number?"
"What to do?" Officer Wang looked confused.
"You just said it yourself, if our boss gets angry and fires us all, then you will definitely have something nice to say."
"When the time comes, I will definitely call you for help."
"Harm! What do I think?" It felt like this fat man was indeed making a fuss.
Of course, Officer Wang didn't blame him. After all, he could understand the hardships of being a working man.
So he took the man's mobile phone in his hand, entered his phone number directly, and dialed it.
Then he threw the phone to the fat man and said, "If you have any difficulties, just call me, Mr. Wang from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch, and I will help you solve everything."
"That's good, that's good." Seeing that Officer Wang had already spoken, he felt like he had asked for a gold medal to avoid death.
The fat man was happy and sent everyone out of the room.
Returning to the vehicle downstairs, Gu Chen started the vehicle directly and drove to Furong Branch.
…………
9 o'clock in the morning.
The Office of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Branch.
At this moment, everyone is already busy with the work at hand.
Since He Junchao and Yuan Shasha worked all night, they could take time off during the day.
So Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang directly to the branch's small conference room.
Project the copied information pictures directly onto the projection screen in the conference room.
Looking at the market distribution map and merchant information tables, Gu Chen called Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe and asked them to sort out the basic situation of these merchants on the spot.
As for himself, he was sitting in the middle of the small conference room, looking up at the curtain in front of him.
"Junior Brother Gu, do you think the mastermind behind this is among these people?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"That's right." Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but said:
"What we need to do now is to conduct a unified investigation of all merchant information in this market to see who among these people has had contact with Hu Zicic."
"And it is absolutely impossible for Vujicic to rent the warehouse by himself. There must be other people behind this."
"However, we are still looking for a needle in a haystack." Officer Wang did feel a little confused about such investigation work.
But Gu Chen disagreed and said: "Although it is time-consuming, it is also the stupidest and most effective method."
"Okay." Seeing that Gu Chen had said so, Officer Wang spread his hands to express that he had no objection.
……
……
Time passed by minute by second, and it soon came to three o'clock in the afternoon.
At this moment, Yuan Shasha had arrived from the dormitory and walked directly into the small conference room.
Gu Chen also called more police officers from the criminal investigation team to start working in this small conference room.
The focus is to investigate who had frequent contact with Hu Zhe before he rented this warehouse.
However, from the morning inspection to the afternoon, everyone's work was not progressing smoothly, and there was no breakthrough.
"Senior Brother Gu." Yuan Shasha walked to Gu Chen and took the initiative to invite him: "I have rested, please arrange tasks for me."
"Okay." Seeing Yuan Shasha walking up to him, Gu Chen pointed directly at the data table on the computer and said:
"These are the list of managers of the wet market in Yuhua Logistics Park."
"Your job now is to investigate these people and find out who had contact with Hu Zhe before he rented the warehouse."
"Are these all?" Yuan Shasha glanced at the computer screen and asked with confirmation.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "All of them."
"Okay, then I understand." Taking the computer in front of Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha was familiar with it and quickly got into working mode.
At this moment, Wu Xiaofeng's investigation work has ended, and he stretched his waist and said:
"Senior Brother Gu, I have finished checking the information on hand."
"How is it?" Gu Chen raised his head and asked.
Wu Xiaofeng shook his head and said helplessly: "No one from the merchants I investigated has had contact with Hu Zhe. There is no interaction at all."
"The list of merchants on my side has also been investigated." As soon as Wu Xiaofeng finished speaking, Ji Zhe had also completed the investigation and shook his head at Gu Chen and said:
"I haven't found anything here. All merchants have no contact with Hu Zhe."
"I don't have it here either."
"Neither do I have one here."
……
As more and more police officers arrived and reports came one after another, Gu Chen also felt confused.
At least on the merchant side, the people who come into contact with Hu Zhe are not ideal.
So Gu Chen looked directly at Yuan Shasha and reminded him: "Xiao Yuan, the next step is up to you."
"I understand, but Senior Brother Gu, you have to give me some time." Yuan Shasha stared at the screen intently and echoed.
"I'll give you time. You can investigate slowly, the more detailed the better." Gu Chen said.
At this moment, Officer Wang's cell phone suddenly rang.
Officer Wang, who was already lying on his seat to rest, was disturbed by the ringtone of his cell phone and picked up the cell phone from the table.
When he saw that it was an unknown caller, he quickly opened the answer button and asked, "Who is this?"
"Is this Officer Wang?" A man's voice came from the phone.
Officer Wang sounded familiar. He turned on the speaker phone directly, put it on the table and asked, "Yes, I am Lao Wang from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch. Who are you?"
"I'm the person from the Yuhua Logistics Park Market Management Center. Just this morning, you didn't come to my office. Do you remember?"
"Oh, so it's you?" After hearing the person's identity, Officer Wang quickly sat upright.
But when I looked back, I thought about what I had said to the fat man this morning, and my heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if I had an ominous premonition.
So Officer Wang quickly asked: "Eh? Are you really fired by your boss?"
"That's not the case." The fat man on the phone also sighed and said helplessly:
"Because I didn't know about it before and my colleague didn't report it to the boss, so I will give you the information."
"I was scolded here, but my colleague who was on duty last night was fired after being scolded by the boss."
"Excuse me... fired?" After hearing such words, Officer Wang felt sulky and said in a bad mood:
"Oh no, is your boss sick? Are you going to have to deal with such a trivial matter as your employees?"
"Oh! Isn't it?" The other end of the phone also sighed, and then came the fat man's reply:
"Our company has its own rules and regulations, but my colleague did not strictly follow the rules and regulations."
"The boss actually didn't say he wouldn't cooperate with your police work. He was just angry that my colleague didn't report the relevant situation to him while you were investigating."
"He just asked you to investigate the company's customer information, so he was angry about it."
"Haha." Listening to the fat man complaining like this, Officer Wang also laughed dryly, somewhat dumbfounded:
"Co-author, last night, we had to investigate customer information. Your colleague had to call your boss late at night to report it?"
"Well, that's the truth." The fat man on the other end of the phone said.
Officer Wang said angrily: "Hey, I found out, is your boss sick? Do you have to fire employees for this kind of thing?"
"Because of those bullshit rules and regulations? You know, it is every citizen's basic obligation to cooperate with our police in investigating cases."
"Besides, didn't you report it to your bullshit boss afterwards? This can also rise to the level of dismissal?"
Shaking his head, Officer Wang also looked at the people present in the small conference room and found it very difficult to understand.
Gu Chen asked curiously: "Then you called this time because you want us to call your boss and ask your boss not to fire your colleague, right? If that's the request, we can... "
"No, no, no." Before Gu Chen finished speaking, the fat man on the other end of the phone retorted:
"That's not why I called. My colleague was scolded by his boss just because of what happened yesterday. As a result, he felt that his self-esteem was frustrated, so he quit his job."
"The boss also took the opportunity to fire him. I guess it's not easy for you to call now, so you might as well not call at all."
"Eh?" After hearing what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei on the side also asked curiously:
"Then since you are not doing it for your fired colleague, you are calling us specifically to tell us that you have been wronged?"
I think this is quite interesting, but Lu Weiwei is also confused.
But soon, the fat man's retort came on the phone: "No, no, I'm not doing it for this. I want to tell you that just because of this, I will also be punished."
"Although my boss didn't fire me, I was scolded and fined 300 yuan."
"What I want to say is that I can't pay for this myself. I'm also here to help you investigate the case, so you have to help me reimburse you for the 300 yuan loss."
"Also, if possible, please give me some additional mental damages."
"It's not much, just...just put together 100 yuan, 200 yuan is fine, anyway, come up with a round number, and help me reimburse 500 yuan?"
As soon as the voice on the phone fell, the entire small conference room fell silent.
Everyone was stunned.
Do you think this is for debt collection?
Officer Wang also looked embarrassed and quickly said into the phone: "Then... what? As for this situation, we will explain it to your boss when the time comes and ask him not to deduct your money. Is that okay?"
"After all, you are assisting our police investigation, and your boss is probably not the kind of inhumane person."
After a pause, Officer Wang continued: "Let me tell you, your boss is that... that, Zou... Zou..."
"Zou Yuhua." Seeing that Officer Wang was speechless for a long time, the fat man on the other end of the phone blurted out.
"Yes, yes, that's your boss Zou Yuhua. We also know his old man. He's the one who sells eggs in the market. You should know that, right?"
"Yes, that's his old man." Listening to what Officer Wang said, the fat man on the other end of the phone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we are very familiar with his old man. Later, I asked the old man to say a few words. Isn't this too outrageous?"
"Oh, he is helping our police handle the case, but he still wants to take it out on your employees? Isn't this nonsense?"
After a pause, Officer Wang said angrily: "Anyway, you don't have to worry, we will help you solve the matter."
"What about this 500 yuan?" The fat man on the phone seemed to still be thinking about the money.
Officer Wang chuckled and continued: "Don't worry, brother, we will settle this."
"It's okay to settle things. If we don't deduct wages, can you compensate a little for the mental damage?" the fat man on the phone asked again.
"Okay, okay, let's just say this for now. We're still in a meeting here. We'll talk about it another day, okay? Anyway, I'll help you get everything done. Well, that's it."
After the words fell, Officer Wang hung up the phone neatly and took a deep breath. He folded his hands behind his head and said angrily:
"What's going on with this guy? He wants to pay for mental damages? I thought he was so righteous? He wants to help his colleagues."
"In the end, he just wants to get some mental compensation from us. You said this guy..."
After thinking about it, Officer Wang also waved his hand and said: "Harm! Forget it, I don't blame him. If I do, blame his boss who is very controlling. I feel that his old man is quite good."
"I could have enjoyed my old age in peace, but I was willing to do business in the market for the eggs of my fellow villagers."
"But his son, for such a big boss, why does he have such a small belly?"
"Perhaps I have also suffered losses, so I am more concerned about the company's core information." Lu Weiwei was open-minded and answered directly:
"After all, the reason why people can make their industry so big is through rules and regulations, and they use these to regulate their employees."
"If the employees under them do not act according to the rules and regulations, but rely on subjective consciousness to decide something at will, then I think management will be quite chaotic."
"At least in terms of human sophistication, it is a major hidden danger. Even the old man who sells eggs knows that he cannot violate his son's company regulations."
"You know how perverted, or rather strict, this guy named Zou Yuhua is about control."
"Senior Sister Lu is right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen, who had his arms crossed, also calmly analyzed:
"It seems that the big boss named Zou Yuhua is too aggressive."
"However, for someone with his social status, he really shouldn't fire employees and fine him wages for such a trivial matter. It's too trivial."
"Isn't it? This Yuhua Logistics Park alone is so large, with so many vehicles coming in and out every day. How much money will it make? There is also a vegetable market."
"I feel like for such a big boss, there is really no need to do this. It's a bit of a fuss." Officer Wang also couldn't stand this guy named Zou Yuhua.
But Gu Chen looked around and expressed his opinion: "Perhaps, we can investigate this Zou Yuhua carefully."
"what?"
After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang suddenly spoke in unison, feeling a little incredible.
Gu Chen glanced in the direction of Yuan Shasha and said, "Little Yuan."
"Ah?" Yuan Shasha looked back and asked hurriedly: "Senior Brother Gu, what's the matter?"
"Is Zou Yuhua on the list of managers of the wet market in Yuhua Logistics Park?"
"No." Yuan Shasha took a second look, shook her head and said, "There are some managers here, including the cleaners, who also have personal information, but there is no information about the boss Zou Yuhua."
"Yeah." After hearing what Yuan Shasha said, Gu Chen also expressed his opinion:
"Such a big boss really shouldn't lose his temper over such a trivial matter, or in other words, this matter has offended his sensitive nerves."
"Junior Brother Gu." After hearing what Gu Chen said, what seemed to be on Lu Weiwei's mind?He hurriedly asked: "You mean, the person who is most likely to jump over the wall in a hurry?"

(End of this chapter)
In the office, Gu Chen felt very surprised when he heard what the fat man said.
It stands to reason that when a normal person goes to rent a warehouse, he or she has to at least shop around, or at least go back and forth on the price. These are normal operations.
But it can be heard from the fat man's tone that Hu Zhe seemed to be eager to win these two stalls.
Therefore, there is not much bargaining, just signing the contract.
Of course, these are in line with Gu Chen's expectations, because the person behind the scenes is not Hu Zhe, but the forces hiding behind Hu Zhe.
And Vujicic is just a signer.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen also sighed and quickly asked: "Is that contract still there?"
"Can electronic contracts be used?" said the fat middle-aged man.
"Okay, show me." Gu Chen said.
The fat middle-aged man didn't hesitate at all. He immediately opened the computer file and started looking for a specific date.
Then, open the electronic contract file.
Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang took a closer look and found that there were not many problems with the contract.
Officer Wang looked at the amount and asked the fat man: "Then the rent of your two stalls is expensive? Or is it cheap?"
"This one……"
"Truthfully." Seeing that the fat man was still hesitant, Officer Wang reminded him.
"Okay." The fat man didn't dwell on this, but said straightforwardly:
"To be honest, it's cheaper than an ordinary wet market stall. After all, it's right there and there's no traffic at all."
"But as a warehouse, it is a bit expensive. After all, it is inside the vegetable market and is quite close to the market stalls."
"Some vegetable merchants have set up their warehouses in this market, so it is more convenient to get things."
"So, the price is not too expensive, but it is not cheap either."
"Okay." It felt like the fat man was just beating around the bush, but from the fat man's tone, Officer Wang could roughly guess that the price was actually quite reasonable.
Lu Weiwei asked again: "After you sign the contract, does Hu Zhe have any other requirements?"
"No." The fat man shook his head and said truthfully:
"This customer is easier to get along with, maybe because he is young? He doesn't have many requirements."
"Originally, I thought he would let us install the lights in the warehouse. After all, there is only one incandescent lamp hanging at the intersection in the E5 area."
"And there are no lights shining inside the warehouse."
"Then why don't you install lights?" Lu Weiwei asked again.
The fat man smiled faintly and quickly explained: "Because this place cannot be rented out for a long time. It just so happens that there are some warehouse stalls, and their light bulbs sometimes get damaged."
"Then we will install the original light tubes in this warehouse directly in other stalls, so there will always be no lights here."
After a pause, the fat man continued: "But, this customer doesn't seem to care about this."
"I've even thought about it, ready for him to ask about installing light bulbs, and I can do it for him right away."
"But in the end, he didn't say anything and just left. I was a little confused at the time. I felt that this customer was quite nice."
"No lights?" Gu Chen was also confused after hearing this explanation.
You know, Hu Zhe went to the warehouse late at night and left early in the morning.
But if there is no light, what would Hu Zhe do in the dark corner of the warehouse?Does he need to carry a luminous body himself?
After all, it was a mystery, and Gu Chen didn't know what Hu Zhe was thinking at that time.
But one thing can be confirmed, Hu Zhe must have his own plans, and he doesn't want others to know.
After thinking about it, Gu Chen asked the fat man again: "What happened next? When Hu Zhe used these two stalls as warehouses, did you go there and see them?"
"Uh……"
"No, right?" Looking at the fat man's expression, Gu Chen could guess something.
The fat man didn't hide it, he nodded and admitted: "That's right, how can we have any free time to take care of him? The warehouse is rented out, we get the money, and then he enjoys the management services of our market, that's fine .”
"As for other things, we don't want to pay too much attention to them."
"So you don't know what exactly is in his warehouse, right?"
"Uh... I guess so." After hearing Gu Chen's words, the fat man nodded in agreement.
After understanding these situations, Gu Chen seemed to have guessed something, that is, before Hu Zhe rented two stalls, someone had actually known about the situation of the warehouse in advance.
But who could this person be?Of course Gu Chen knew that it must be someone inside the market.
But there are so many people inside the market here that it would be impossible to investigate them one by one.
If nothing else, just checking the merchants in this market seems to be an impossible task.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen hesitated.
Although I am constantly narrowing the scope of the investigation, it seems that the clues are still in an area that looks like the sea.
And what he has to do now is undoubtedly to find a needle in a haystack.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Chen also said slowly: "I would like to ask, does anyone here know the market layout very well?"
"This one……"
After hearing what Gu Chen said, the fat man hesitated for a few seconds and then said with a smile: "Our market is actually an old market. It has been in business for three or four years. This is the fourth year."
"If we want to say that those who know the layout of this market better, it should be the people in our office."
"After all, the floor plans of merchants and various market structure diagrams are all here with us."
“Sometimes, we can find out the specific situation of a merchant just by checking.”
"Who is familiar with Area E5, Warehouse No. 001 and Warehouse No. 002?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Well, generally speaking, it's only people within our market."
"Even some merchants within our market may not go to that place because it is just a corner."
"Okay." After receiving such a reply, Gu Chen probably knew that the market merchants or the personnel of the market management center had the best understanding of the layout of this area.
But how to find out the mastermind now?Obviously, it will take time to resolve.
Gu Chen was going to use the stupidest method, which was the elimination method.
Use the elimination method to exclude related persons within these markets one by one.
If we focus on the remaining most suspicious persons, we can at least narrow down the scope a lot.
Gu Chen stepped forward and said in a gentle tone: "Then please help me bring back a copy of the information on these merchants."
"Uh, this..."
Upon hearing what Gu Chen said, the fat man who had been relatively polite before suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Weiwei asked hurriedly: "What? Is it inconvenient?"
"It's not inconvenient, it's just...our leader has said that merchant information is the secret of our company and is absolutely not allowed to be given to outsiders."
"But we are investigating a case, and we don't want your business secrets." Officer Wang also told the truth.
The fat man also nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "I know this, but you may not know much about Mr. Zou, but he will definitely be extra cautious when it comes to business secrets."
"After all, shopping malls are like battlefields. Whoever masters the customer's information can occupy an absolute dominant position in the business war, right?"
"But..." After hearing what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei also looked puzzled and said:
"But the colleague you took over from before also allowed us to go to the warehouse to investigate and also allowed us to access customer information."
"Because we are the police handling cases, these situations..."
"Haha." Before Lu Weiwei could finish her words, the fat man smiled and said:
"Comrades police, I understand you very well, and I also understand my colleague very well."
"But what I want to tell you is that unless our President Zou personally authorizes it, anyone who leaks customer information without authorization will definitely be punished by our President Zou, that's for sure."
After a pause, the fat man also tugged on the collar of his jacket, and then said: "So, last night, my colleague must have informed Mr. Zou and explained the situation, right?"
"No, he didn't." Faced with the fat man's remarks, Officer Wang retorted directly.
"No?" After hearing what Officer Wang said, the fat man was stunned and said in disbelief:
"He didn't notify Mr. Zou and just let you investigate?"
"Are there still fake ones?" Lu Weiwei also asked with raised eyebrows.
"This guy is harmful." The fat man sighed and said helplessly: "This guy will definitely be scolded, and I don't have the authority here."
"But you just investigated the contract situation for us." Lu Weiwei said.
"That's because my colleague has already investigated it for you. I thought he reported it to our President Zou, but I didn't expect that he didn't."
With a faint sigh, the fat man also looked helpless: "If I had known this, I would have made a call first to communicate with Mr. Zou."
"Don't go to such trouble, right? Everyone knows that it is every citizen's obligation to cooperate with our police in case investigations." Officer Wang also understood.
But the fat man waved his hand helplessly: "That's all, I'm already cooperating with your investigation anyway. I'll just explain it to Mr. Zou later. I think he will curse a few curse words at most."
After the words fell, the fat man also walked back to the desk and reminded:
"The customer information table and the stall distribution map of these merchants are all in this file. You can copy it."
"Thank you, it's really helpful." Seeing that the fat man was quite understanding of justice, Gu Chen thanked him, then took out the mobile USB flash drive and started to copy the merchant information.
After copying the files, Gu Chen asked again: "What about the information sheet for the managers of the wet market in your Yuhua Logistics Park?"
"Do you want this too?" The fat man looked surprised.
Gu Chen nodded silently.
The fat man had no choice but to pick up the mouse on the table, click on another folder, and then said:
"Here, here is the contact list for the marketing management department, including basic information on all employees."
"Even the staff responsible for cleaning the market have their information here."
"This is best." Gu Chen appreciated the fat man's frankness and quickly copied the information.
After completing the operation, Gu Chen stood up, shook hands with the fat man and thanked him: "Thank you for supporting our work."
"Haha." Facing Gu Chen's enthusiasm, the fat man just smiled and said self-deprecatingly:
"Anyway, this scolding is inevitable."
"Don't be so pessimistic. Why don't we call your leader later to explain? I've never seen such a long-winded leader like you, and it's so cumbersome to cooperate with the investigation of the case?" Lu Weiwei felt that the other leader was making a fuss out of a molehill?
But the fat man explained: "You don't know something. There have been cases of theft in our market before, and some comrades from the police station came to us to investigate the situation."
"I also checked the merchant information within our market. Originally, it was just a very common thing, but because we didn't get the authorization from Mr. Zou, Mr. Zou directly fired the employees who managed the information."
"No way?" Listening to what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei suddenly felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with his worries.
Officer Wang also said angrily: "Does such a big boss have such a strong desire to control?"
"Isn't it?" The fat man picked up the thermos cup on the table, took a small sip, and explained:
"Our boss is good at everything, but he is too controlling, especially when it comes to business secrets. Without his permission, they must not be leaked."
"Last time the police station came to collect information, he got angry in the office. Now that we are providing these information files to the police without reporting them to him, I don't know if the boss will fire us."
"It's not that serious." Seeing the fat man demonizing his boss, Officer Wang quickly comforted him:
"Big deal, let's explain to your boss that this is nothing? Make sure he won't fire you because of this."
"Hey! Did you say this yourself?" Seeing Officer Wang saying the same thing, the fat man quickly took out his cell phone and asked:
"Then can you give me your phone number?"
"What to do?" Officer Wang looked confused.
"You just said it yourself, if our boss gets angry and fires us all, then you will definitely have something nice to say."
"When the time comes, I will definitely call you for help."
"Harm! What do I think?" It felt like this fat man was indeed making a fuss.
Of course, Officer Wang didn't blame him. After all, he could understand the hardships of being a working man.
So he took the man's mobile phone in his hand, entered his phone number directly, and dialed it.
Then he threw the phone to the fat man and said, "If you have any difficulties, just call me, Mr. Wang from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch, and I will help you solve everything."
"That's good, that's good." Seeing that Officer Wang had already spoken, he felt like he had asked for a gold medal to avoid death.
The fat man was happy and sent everyone out of the room.
Returning to the vehicle downstairs, Gu Chen started the vehicle directly and drove to Furong Branch.
…………
9 o'clock in the morning.
The Office of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Furong Branch.
At this moment, everyone is already busy with the work at hand.
Since He Junchao and Yuan Shasha worked all night, they could take time off during the day.
So Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang directly to the branch's small conference room.
Project the copied information pictures directly onto the projection screen in the conference room.
Looking at the market distribution map and merchant information tables, Gu Chen called Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe and asked them to sort out the basic situation of these merchants on the spot.
As for himself, he was sitting in the middle of the small conference room, looking up at the curtain in front of him.
"Junior Brother Gu, do you think the mastermind behind this is among these people?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"That's right." Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but said:
"What we need to do now is to conduct a unified investigation of all merchant information in this market to see who among these people has had contact with Hu Zicic."
"And it is absolutely impossible for Vujicic to rent the warehouse by himself. There must be other people behind this."
"However, we are still looking for a needle in a haystack." Officer Wang did feel a little confused about such investigation work.
But Gu Chen disagreed and said: "Although it is time-consuming, it is also the stupidest and most effective method."
"Okay." Seeing that Gu Chen had said so, Officer Wang spread his hands to express that he had no objection.
……
……
Time passed by minute by second, and it soon came to three o'clock in the afternoon.
At this moment, Yuan Shasha had arrived from the dormitory and walked directly into the small conference room.
Gu Chen also called more police officers from the criminal investigation team to start working in this small conference room.
The focus is to investigate who had frequent contact with Hu Zhe before he rented this warehouse.
However, from the morning inspection to the afternoon, everyone's work was not progressing smoothly, and there was no breakthrough.
"Senior Brother Gu." Yuan Shasha walked to Gu Chen and took the initiative to invite him: "I have rested, please arrange tasks for me."
"Okay." Seeing Yuan Shasha walking up to him, Gu Chen pointed directly at the data table on the computer and said:
"These are the list of managers of the wet market in Yuhua Logistics Park."
"Your job now is to investigate these people and find out who had contact with Hu Zhe before he rented the warehouse."
"Are these all?" Yuan Shasha glanced at the computer screen and asked with confirmation.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "All of them."
"Okay, then I understand." Taking the computer in front of Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha was familiar with it and quickly got into working mode.
At this moment, Wu Xiaofeng's investigation work has ended, and he stretched his waist and said:
"Senior Brother Gu, I have finished checking the information on hand."
"How is it?" Gu Chen raised his head and asked.
Wu Xiaofeng shook his head and said helplessly: "No one from the merchants I investigated has had contact with Hu Zhe. There is no interaction at all."
"The list of merchants on my side has also been investigated." As soon as Wu Xiaofeng finished speaking, Ji Zhe had also completed the investigation and shook his head at Gu Chen and said:
"I haven't found anything here. All merchants have no contact with Hu Zhe."
"I don't have it here either."
"Neither do I have one here."
……
As more and more police officers arrived and reports came one after another, Gu Chen also felt confused.
At least on the merchant side, the people who come into contact with Hu Zhe are not ideal.
So Gu Chen looked directly at Yuan Shasha and reminded him: "Xiao Yuan, the next step is up to you."
"I understand, but Senior Brother Gu, you have to give me some time." Yuan Shasha stared at the screen intently and echoed.
"I'll give you time. You can investigate slowly, the more detailed the better." Gu Chen said.
At this moment, Officer Wang's cell phone suddenly rang.
Officer Wang, who was already lying on his seat to rest, was disturbed by the ringtone of his cell phone and picked up the cell phone from the table.
When he saw that it was an unknown caller, he quickly opened the answer button and asked, "Who is this?"
"Is this Officer Wang?" A man's voice came from the phone.
Officer Wang sounded familiar. He turned on the speaker phone directly, put it on the table and asked, "Yes, I am Lao Wang from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch. Who are you?"
"I'm the person from the Yuhua Logistics Park Market Management Center. Just this morning, you didn't come to my office. Do you remember?"
"Oh, so it's you?" After hearing the person's identity, Officer Wang quickly sat upright.
But when I looked back, I thought about what I had said to the fat man this morning, and my heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if I had an ominous premonition.
So Officer Wang quickly asked: "Eh? Are you really fired by your boss?"
"That's not the case." The fat man on the phone also sighed and said helplessly:
"Because I didn't know about it before and my colleague didn't report it to the boss, so I will give you the information."
"I was scolded here, but my colleague who was on duty last night was fired after being scolded by the boss."
"Excuse me... fired?" After hearing such words, Officer Wang felt sulky and said in a bad mood:
"Oh no, is your boss sick? Are you going to have to deal with such a trivial matter as your employees?"
"Oh! Isn't it?" The other end of the phone also sighed, and then came the fat man's reply:
"Our company has its own rules and regulations, but my colleague did not strictly follow the rules and regulations."
"The boss actually didn't say he wouldn't cooperate with your police work. He was just angry that my colleague didn't report the relevant situation to him while you were investigating."
"He just asked you to investigate the company's customer information, so he was angry about it."
"Haha." Listening to the fat man complaining like this, Officer Wang also laughed dryly, somewhat dumbfounded:
"Co-author, last night, we had to investigate customer information. Your colleague had to call your boss late at night to report it?"
"Well, that's the truth." The fat man on the other end of the phone said.
Officer Wang said angrily: "Hey, I found out, is your boss sick? Do you have to fire employees for this kind of thing?"
"Because of those bullshit rules and regulations? You know, it is every citizen's basic obligation to cooperate with our police in investigating cases."
"Besides, didn't you report it to your bullshit boss afterwards? This can also rise to the level of dismissal?"
Shaking his head, Officer Wang also looked at the people present in the small conference room and found it very difficult to understand.
Gu Chen asked curiously: "Then you called this time because you want us to call your boss and ask your boss not to fire your colleague, right? If that's the request, we can... "
"No, no, no." Before Gu Chen finished speaking, the fat man on the other end of the phone retorted:
"That's not why I called. My colleague was scolded by his boss just because of what happened yesterday. As a result, he felt that his self-esteem was frustrated, so he quit his job."
"The boss also took the opportunity to fire him. I guess it's not easy for you to call now, so you might as well not call at all."
"Eh?" After hearing what the fat man said, Lu Weiwei on the side also asked curiously:
"Then since you are not doing it for your fired colleague, you are calling us specifically to tell us that you have been wronged?"
I think this is quite interesting, but Lu Weiwei is also confused.
But soon, the fat man's retort came on the phone: "No, no, I'm not doing it for this. I want to tell you that just because of this, I will also be punished."
"Although my boss didn't fire me, I was scolded and fined 300 yuan."
"What I want to say is that I can't pay for this myself. I'm also here to help you investigate the case, so you have to help me reimburse you for the 300 yuan loss."
"Also, if possible, please give me some additional mental damages."
"It's not much, just...just put together 100 yuan, 200 yuan is fine, anyway, come up with a round number, and help me reimburse 500 yuan?"
As soon as the voice on the phone fell, the entire small conference room fell silent.
Everyone was stunned.
Do you think this is for debt collection?
Officer Wang also looked embarrassed and quickly said into the phone: "Then... what? As for this situation, we will explain it to your boss when the time comes and ask him not to deduct your money. Is that okay?"
"After all, you are assisting our police investigation, and your boss is probably not the kind of inhumane person."
After a pause, Officer Wang continued: "Let me tell you, your boss is that... that, Zou... Zou..."
"Zou Yuhua." Seeing that Officer Wang was speechless for a long time, the fat man on the other end of the phone blurted out.
"Yes, yes, that's your boss Zou Yuhua. We also know his old man. He's the one who sells eggs in the market. You should know that, right?"
"Yes, that's his old man." Listening to what Officer Wang said, the fat man on the other end of the phone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we are very familiar with his old man. Later, I asked the old man to say a few words. Isn't this too outrageous?"
"Oh, he is helping our police handle the case, but he still wants to take it out on your employees? Isn't this nonsense?"
After a pause, Officer Wang said angrily: "Anyway, you don't have to worry, we will help you solve the matter."
"What about this 500 yuan?" The fat man on the phone seemed to still be thinking about the money.
Officer Wang chuckled and continued: "Don't worry, brother, we will settle this."
"It's okay to settle things. If we don't deduct wages, can you compensate a little for the mental damage?" the fat man on the phone asked again.
"Okay, okay, let's just say this for now. We're still in a meeting here. We'll talk about it another day, okay? Anyway, I'll help you get everything done. Well, that's it."
After the words fell, Officer Wang hung up the phone neatly and took a deep breath. He folded his hands behind his head and said angrily:
"What's going on with this guy? He wants to pay for mental damages? I thought he was so righteous? He wants to help his colleagues."
"In the end, he just wants to get some mental compensation from us. You said this guy..."
After thinking about it, Officer Wang also waved his hand and said: "Harm! Forget it, I don't blame him. If I do, blame his boss who is very controlling. I feel that his old man is quite good."
"I could have enjoyed my old age in peace, but I was willing to do business in the market for the eggs of my fellow villagers."
"But his son, for such a big boss, why does he have such a small belly?"
"Perhaps I have also suffered losses, so I am more concerned about the company's core information." Lu Weiwei was open-minded and answered directly:
"After all, the reason why people can make their industry so big is through rules and regulations, and they use these to regulate their employees."
"If the employees under them do not act according to the rules and regulations, but rely on subjective consciousness to decide something at will, then I think management will be quite chaotic."
"At least in terms of human sophistication, it is a major hidden danger. Even the old man who sells eggs knows that he cannot violate his son's company regulations."
"You know how perverted, or rather strict, this guy named Zou Yuhua is about control."
"Senior Sister Lu is right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen, who had his arms crossed, also calmly analyzed:
"It seems that the big boss named Zou Yuhua is too aggressive."
"However, for someone with his social status, he really shouldn't fire employees and fine him wages for such a trivial matter. It's too trivial."
"Isn't it? This Yuhua Logistics Park alone is so large, with so many vehicles coming in and out every day. How much money will it make? There is also a vegetable market."
"I feel like for such a big boss, there is really no need to do this. It's a bit of a fuss." Officer Wang also couldn't stand this guy named Zou Yuhua.
But Gu Chen looked around and expressed his opinion: "Perhaps, we can investigate this Zou Yuhua carefully."
"what?"
After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang suddenly spoke in unison, feeling a little incredible.
Gu Chen glanced in the direction of Yuan Shasha and said, "Little Yuan."
"Ah?" Yuan Shasha looked back and asked hurriedly: "Senior Brother Gu, what's the matter?"
"Is Zou Yuhua on the list of managers of the wet market in Yuhua Logistics Park?"
"No." Yuan Shasha took a second look, shook her head and said, "There are some managers here, including the cleaners, who also have personal information, but there is no information about the boss Zou Yuhua."
"Yeah." After hearing what Yuan Shasha said, Gu Chen also expressed his opinion:
"Such a big boss really shouldn't lose his temper over such a trivial matter, or in other words, this matter has offended his sensitive nerves."
"Junior Brother Gu." After hearing what Gu Chen said, what seemed to be on Lu Weiwei's mind?He hurriedly asked: "You mean, the person who is most likely to jump over the wall in a hurry?"
