I am a super cop

Chapter 2389 Cliff Village [Two in one chapter]

Of course Gu Chen understood Zhang Ying's difficulties. No matter how bad Zhang Guifa was, he was still Zhang Ying's father.

In terms of blood relationship, even if Zhang Ying hates Zhang Guifa, this is a blood relationship after all.

Although Zhang Ying kept saying that she had nothing to do with Zhang Guifa, she lost her composure when she heard that Zhang Guifa might be a murderer.

After saying so many words of severance, Gu Chen could still see from Zhang Ying's eyes that she was still worried about her father.

"So, do you think he is two-faced?" Gu Chen said.

"I don't know what to say now?" Faced with Gu Chen's question, Zhang Ying shook her head and tried to look stronger.

After briefly calming down, Zhang Ying also said firmly: "He Zhang Guifa is a bastard. I said that I am not surprised if he has done any despicable things."

"Because he is a bastard, he is a heinous bastard."

"Okay, I understand how you feel." Seeing Zhang Ying's emotions, there seemed to be no end to them.

It seems that Zhang Ying has been unable to let go of Zhang Guifa's debt to her mother and daughter for so many years.

Now for Zhang Ying, it seems that the time has come to kill her relatives out of justice.

"Zhang Ying, do you know where Zhang Guifa is?" Gu Chen asked again seriously.

Zhang Ying hesitated for a few seconds and looked at a few people with evasive eyes.

"You know, right?" Although Zhang Ying's eyes were just a little erratic, for the sharp-eyed Lu Weiwei, Zhang Ying's erratic eyes could not escape her detection.

When asked by Lu Weiwei, Zhang Ying seemed a little nervous, but she did not answer.

Upon seeing this, Officer Wang quickly said: "Zhang Ying, you said it yourself, what's going on with Zhang Guifa? What things has he done? None of this has anything to do with you."

"But since it doesn't matter, and you don't think it's surprising that he did so many despicable things?"

"Then you can boldly tell us his current location."

Seeing that Zhang Ying was a little shaken at this moment, Officer Wang continued to increase his firepower and persuaded: "I know, asking you to betray your father, no, this is not called betrayal, it should be called a report."

"By reporting Zhang Guifa, you are actually helping Hu Zhe. You must know that Hu Zhe's life or death is uncertain now."

"Furthermore, according to our investigation, it is very likely that he has been working for Zhang Guifa."

"Thus, many secrets of Zhang Guifa were obtained. Therefore, Zhang Guifa may have killed Hu Zhe and silenced him."

After saying this, seeing Zhang Ying's expression fluctuating slightly at this moment, Officer Wang quickly said again:
"Think about it, Vujicic is your best friend, and you have formed your own metal band since college."

"And for so many years, you have shared the joys and sorrows together and are more like a family. But Zhang Guifa, he killed Hu Zhe. In order to continue his criminal activities, he brutally killed Hu Zhe."

"And Hu Zhe, from the beginning, maybe he just wanted to help your metal band, and Zhang Guifa happened to also want to make up for you in this way."

"But an accident still happened. In the face of interests, Zhang Guifa didn't seem to care about Hu Zhe's life. He could even kill Hu Zhe without mercy."

"That's right." Officer Wang here had just finished speaking. Seeing that Zhang Ying's mood swings were still continuing, Yuan Shasha on the side quickly agreed:
"Zhang Ying, think about it, Hu Zhe hopes that the metal band can survive so much that he is even willing to go to the relevant personnel of the East Lake Camp Music Festival for this metal band."

"Why is he working so hard? After all, isn't it for this metal band? For you? Or you."

Yuan Shasha's words were like a bolt from the blue.

If Zhang Ying was like a piece of wood before, then Zhang Ying now was definitely awakened by Yuan Shasha's thoughtful words.

Zhang Ying, who had regained consciousness, took a deep breath and said in a choked voice:
"If things are really as you say, if Zhang Guifa really killed Hu Zhe? I will not forgive him, absolutely not."

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei quickly walked to the nurse station, patted Zhang Ying on the shoulder, and said softly:

"We know that this matter has nothing to do with you. It's all Zhang Guifa's fault."

"The crimes he committed are enough to hurt too many people. We should protect these innocent people. Therefore, we must find him, make him stop committing crimes, and bring him to justice."

After all, women are most effective when persuading women.

At this moment, Zhang Ying was upset. Faced with the cruel reality that her friend might be killed by her father, Zhang Ying was exhausted mentally and physically.

After trying to calm down her mood, Zhang Ying nodded and said:
"I know that he brought all this on himself, but I really don't know the specific situation of Zhang Guifa now."

"Because you also know that the relationship between me and him has long been in name only, and we are even like strangers."

"He would call me and send me messages every year and during holidays, but I didn't reply to him. I never did."

"Then how did he contact you?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"He will take the initiative to come to me." Zhang Ying said.

"Looking for you?" After hesitating, Lu Weiwei added: "So, if he wants to see you, he will take the initiative to come to your workplace to find you, right?"

"Yes." At this point, Zhang Ying felt that there was nothing to hide, so she said straightforwardly:

"There were several New Year holidays when I was on duty in the hospital. He wanted to take me home to celebrate the New Year with me, but I wouldn't go with him."

"So, during those few New Year celebrations, he couldn't do anything to me, so he bought some things and put them in our nurse's station as a New Year gift for me. But when I turned around, I threw away all these things. I didn't need him. of these mercies.”

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Ying also said with tears in her eyes: "If he had pity on me, he would not have divorced my mother back then."

"If he pitied me, he shouldn't be with that woman. If he pitied me, he should know where he went wrong? Instead of always feeling no guilt about my mother's death."

With a heavy sigh, Zhang Ying tried her best to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with choked sobs:
"He is just a cold-blooded and ruthless man. For this kind of person, I will never contact him again."

"I understand." Gu Chen expressed his understanding, and then said:

"Other than that, is there no contact between you?"

Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhang Ying shook her head: "Barely not, but he often tells me that sometimes he really wants to go back to the past, to that mountain nest."

"Although the conditions at home were not good at that time, our family lived a very happy life."

Looking up at Gu Chen, Zhang Ying also thought about it and said: "Every time he encounters difficulties and wants to relax, he will go back to the old house in his hometown and stay there for a while to relax himself. Being able to relax your head.”

"Is it every time?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Zhang Ying shook her head: "I don't know, but one thing is very certain. Before his business was successful, he often did this."

"However, since his business has improved and he has been with other women, I have never had anything to do with him."

"My grandparents passed away last year. I went to the funeral and saw him at the funeral."

"Since then, he can only see me at the hospital where I work, and that's it."

Listening to Zhang Ying's story, Gu Chen also walked back and forth in front of the nurse's desk and said with some hesitation:
"Then according to what you said, when he is desperate, he might escape back to his hometown and hide in his hometown, is that right?"

"Yes." Zhang Ying did not deny it, but said truthfully:
"That's what it is, and hopefully he'll be there this time, and I hope you can catch him."

After saying this, Zhang Ying seemed to be relieved.

If anything, I had some concerns about Zhang Guifa and his identity before.

But when he heard that his best friend Hu Zhe might have been working for Zhang Guifa.

Moreover, when Hu Zhe might have died at the hands of Zhang Guifa, Zhang Ying's inner conflict became extremely complicated.

Fortunately, Zhang Ying finally chose to cooperate with the police and arrest Zhang Guifa.

From this point of view, Gu Chen expressed relief that at least Zhang Ying was not like her father and still had a conscience.

"Okay, can you provide the address of your hometown?" Seeing Zhang Ying give the clue, Gu Chen decided to go there and try his luck.

After all, at this stage, it seems that it will be difficult to find Zhang Guifa who is hiding.

Zhang Ying did not hesitate at this moment. She directly took out the writing pen from her chest and wrote down the address of her hometown on a piece of paper.

Then he tore it off and handed it to Gu Chen: "This is the address of my hometown, Beishan Town, Zhangjiacun."

"Beishan Town?" Gu Chen's eyes lit up when he saw the name.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Gu Chen's expression, Zhang Ying also asked curiously.

"No, there was a person who was related to Zhang Guifa before. He was also from Beishan Town."

"Really?" Seeing what Gu Chen said, Zhang Ying nodded silently and couldn't help but say:

"This Beishan Town is actually inside Beishan. Beishan divides the terrain into three parts."

"My home is in the mountains. In fact, it was previously under the jurisdiction of other counties. Later it was transferred to Beishan Town and finally belonged to Jiangnan City."

"Understood." Gu Chen also had some understanding of Beishan Town.

Later, after Gu Chen briefly communicated some details with Zhang Ying, he took everyone back to Furong Branch.

……

……

The next morning, 6 am.

Due to tight time and heavy tasks, everyone didn't sleep long last night, but today's goal is still very clear, which is to capture Zhang Guifa.

It can be said that Zhang Guifa is cunning. Since he started embarking on this criminal path, he has been cautious in everything.

As Zou Yuhua explained, it was easier to contact him before, but later on, it became very difficult.

In the end, I couldn't even contact him and I could only passively accept Zhang Guifa's contact.

This change of situation also made Gu Chen understand that this Zhang Guifa seemed not to be easy to catch.

"Get in the car." Gu Chen bit the bun in his mouth and swallowed it in several bites.

Lu Weiwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, quickly handed Gu Chen milk: "Junior Brother Gu, take a sip."

"Yes." Gu Chen took the milk from Lu Weiwei's hand and took a sip through the straw.

However, he originally thought it was the milk Lu Weiwei gave him, but as soon as Gu Chen sucked it halfway, Lu Weiwei took it back directly.

Then he pointed the straw at himself and took a few leisurely puffs.

Officer Wang, who was sitting in the back row, was stunned and smiled teasingly: "Lu Weiwei, isn't this Gu Chen's milk?"

"This is my milk." Lu Weiwei said.

Officer Wang was stunned and then said: "Oh no, didn't you, Lu Weiwei, buy the breakfast? Then why did you only buy your own milk? And not Gu Chen's?"

"Because everything else is not yet hot, drinking cold milk early in the morning will easily make your stomach uncomfortable." Lu Weiwei has her own set of myths.

Officer Wang was a little speechless, but he still knew Lu Weiwei's little thoughts. Together with Lu Weiwei, he deliberately bought one less box of hot milk, and then drank one bottle with Gu Chen.

Thinking that this little girl is quite scheming, Officer Wang quickly picked up his own milk and said, "How about I give Gu Chen some of mine? It's also hot."

"But Senior Brother Wang, you've already drank." Yuan Shasha on the side didn't understand the situation and said straightforwardly.

Officer Wang made a "tsk" sound and pointed at Lu Weiwei and said, "Have you drank Lu Weiwei's milk too? The milk she drank can be given to Gu Chen, but the milk I drank can't be used?"

"No." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei turned around and retorted.

Officer Wang was stunned and quickly asked: "Why?"

"Because you have bad breath." Lu Weiwei said.

Officer Wang: "..."

It feels like I can't argue.

But Gu Chen didn't mind and said quickly: "It doesn't matter, just one less box of milk. I've already finished my breakfast anyway."

Turning to look at Lu Weiwei, Gu Chen also said gratefully: "Thank you, Senior Sister Lu, for buying breakfast for us."

"Hehe, you're welcome." Seeing Gu Chen say this, Lu Weiwei's tone immediately became softer.

Soon, Gu Chen started the vehicle. The destination he was going to this time was one that everyone had been to before, which was Beishan Town.

……

……

On the way, Gu Chen also thought about it and said, "Last time we went to Beishan Town, we were going to investigate the nephew of the old vegetable seller, but this time we were going to investigate Zhang Guifa."

"And I have checked that Beishan Town covers a wide area, and the Zhangjia Village given by Zhang Ying has a really special geographical location. It is in the hinterland of Beishan Town, on the mountainside."

With a sigh, Gu Chen said helplessly: "Actually, it's quite convenient to find people in a village like the one we went to before."

"The terrain is relatively flat, but the Zhangjia Village we are going to now is in the hinterland of Beishan, and around the village, there are a lot of woods covering it, and it is very dense."

"I know." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei quickly replied:
"This shows that even if we come to Zhangjia Village and the forest hinterland of Beishan Town, we may not be able to find Zhang Guifa easily."

"After all, that is Zhang Guifa's home. He has lived there since he was a child and is very familiar with the situation in that area."

"So, it seems... it seems a bit difficult to find Zhang Guifa in the forest."

"What does 'seems a bit difficult' mean? It means quite difficult, okay?" Officer Wang felt that Lu Weiwei's metaphor was inappropriate, and he quickly complained.

Lu Weiwei rolled her eyes at Officer Wang: "You, Mr. Wang, talk a lot, who doesn't know? But no matter how hard it is to find, we still have to find Zhang Guifa, right?" "Okay, Senior Sister Lu, Senior Brother Wang, please don't Noisy." Yuan Shasha yawned and said involuntarily:

"Last night, I was busy till late, and I have to leave for Beishan Town early this morning. I feel like your energy is so high."

Patting her mouth, Yuan Shasha was also very sleepy and said: "Unlike me, I am really sleepy, even though I fell asleep last night."

"It's not that I'm not tired." Lu Weiwei came back to her senses, tried hard to think about it, and then said again:

"It seems...I'm a little sleepy too."

"Then stop arguing and save some energy. Gu Chen is really hardworking." Officer Wang couldn't help but complain.

Looking at Gu Chen, Officer Wang asked again: "Gu Chen, if you are very tired later, remember to pull over and I will drive for you."

"It's okay, I'm in good spirits." Faced with Officer Wang's knowing concern, Gu Chen still decisively refused.

Of course, Officer Wang also knew that Gu Chen was famous for his good spirit, and felt that this guy would always have endless energy.

Comparing his energy with him, Officer Wang felt that he was humiliating himself.

"Okay, then I have to sleep for a while. Remember to wake me up when you get to your destination." Officer Wang said.

"Okay, you go to sleep first, I'll call you when we get there." Gu Chen said.

……

……

I don’t know how long it took, but when Officer Wang woke up again, he was surrounded by Yuan Shasha who was pushing him awake.

"Senior Brother Wang, are you finally awake?" Yuan Shasha said.

"Yeah." Officer Wang agreed perfunctorily and quickly looked around.

After Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei disappeared, Officer Wang quickly asked: "Where are those two guys?"

"Senior Brother Gu and Senior Sister Lu have already gone over to explore the road. The car here has reached the end of the road." Yuan Shasha said.

"It's over? Shouldn't we drive directly to the village?" Officer Wang looked confused. Is there something wrong?
But Yuan Shasha shook her head, pointed to the area ahead and said: "This is the end of the rural road, and in Zhangjia Village, we still need to walk a section of dirt road, which seems to be climbing."

"Is it so troublesome?" Officer Wang, who was a bit strange, quickly sat up straight, put on his equipment, and then ordered in the tone of an old comrade: "Get out of the car."

The two got out of the car one after another and closed the door. Officer Wang stood beside the vehicle and looked at the road in front of him, also stunned.

"Senior Brother Wang." Yuan Shasha, who had put on her equipment, also walked up to Officer Wang.

"My dear." Officer Wang quickly rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief: "Isn't this village built on top?"

"Yes." Yuan Shasha nodded silently and said involuntarily:

"Senior Brother Gu said that there don't seem to be many families in that village."

"Although every village is now connected to roads, they are all roads with flat terrain."

"There have been few families living here in the village here for a long time. Many villagers have moved to the city."

“So, it’s not cost-effective to build roads in this kind of terrain.”

"I understand." After knowing that Zhangjiacun might be a mini natural village, Officer Wang was instantly relieved.

Regardless of Sanqi 21, he waved directly and said: "Let's go, let's go find Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei and see how they are doing?"

"Yeah." Yuan Shasha didn't care too much, straightened her shoes, and then started to follow Officer Wang towards the mountains.

Indeed, as Officer Wang expected, since the population here is very small and the village is built in a ravine, it looks somewhat isolated from the world.

Officer Wang even had to climb the slope and walked toward the mountain, and he complained with a look on his face:

"It's really strange. Who would build a house in a ravine like this? It feels strange."

"If this is really the case, how troublesome will it be to get in and out of the village?"

"Isn't it?" Yuan Shasha, who was following Officer Wang, also echoed and said:

"But didn't Senior Brother Wang win No. 1 on Beishan Mountain Climb? He also participated in Beishan's cross-country competition. Why do you feel so out of breath now?"

"Ah? Is there any?" It seemed that the noise from the panting just now was too loud, and there were so many complaints that Yuan Shasha behind her questioned her performance in mountain climbing.

Officer Wang paused immediately, tried to adjust his breathing, and said with a smile:

"Of course I had no problem climbing this kind of mountain back then. After all, I was young. But it's different now. When you reach middle age, you can't help yourself."

Taking a deep breath, Officer Wang said helplessly: "It would be great if God made me a few years younger, unlike young people like you."

Having said this, in order to prevent Yuan Shasha from following him all the time and feeling the powerlessness of climbing the mountain, Officer Wang quickly urged:

"How about? Xiao Yuan, you go first, I will follow you."

"Uh... that's okay." Although she felt that Comrade Lao Wang just lacked physical strength, Yuan Shasha still accepted it indifferently.

Then, the two continued to climb up the mountain.

It can be said that the dirt slopes here are relatively difficult to walk on. Since these roads have not been taken care of for a long time, there are many weeds covering the roads everywhere.

In addition, the gravel on the mountain is often washed away by heavy rains and covered on the road, which makes walking even more troublesome.

After much effort, Officer Wang followed Yuan Shasha to the entrance of Zhangjiacun.

Seeing that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were already sitting there, chatting with an old woman, Officer Wang walked up to them with heavy steps and said:
"This road is too difficult to walk on. It feels like a cliff village."

After breathing heavily, Officer Wang looked at the old lady sitting on the bench and said politely:
"Old man, can you ask for a drink of water?"

"There is water in the water tank, you can drink it yourself." The old lady spoke in a milky voice, and her voice was very small, but she could be heard clearly.

"Okay, thank you." Officer Wang nodded silently, crossed the threshold and walked into the house.

This is an old house with only one floor, and the water tank the old man mentioned is in the kitchen.

Officer Wang took off the wooden lid, found an aluminum alloy spoon from the water tank, scooped up a sip of water, and put it into his mouth.

At this moment, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were still sitting outside chatting with the old man. Yuan Shasha was standing on the other side of them, and the old lady found a small bench for her.

After drinking enough water, Officer Wang came to the door, stroking his stomach, and said jokingly:
"Old man, the water in your water tank is so sweet. It feels refreshing and cool."

"Haha, that's mountain spring water. There is mountain spring water behind our village. We usually go there to get water and drink it. We have been drinking it for several generations."

"Oh, is that so?" Listening to the old man's weak voice, Officer Wang touched his head and couldn't find his seat, so he could only stand there and ask Gu Chen:

"By the way, Gu Chen, you and Lu Weiwei came here, did you find anything?"

Gu Chen shook his head: "The old man said that she is the only one living here now."

"Live alone?" Officer Wang felt incredible when he heard Gu Chen say this.

So he quickly looked at the old woman wearing dentures and said, "Old man, are you the only one in your village?"

"Yes." The old lady nodded silently and spoke very simply.

"What about the others?" Officer Wang expressed confusion.

The old lady smiled and said: "Them? They don't want to live in the village, they all live in the city."

"I've lived here for many years. I'm not used to living in the city."

Speaking of this, the old lady waved her hands, feeling that this was her destination.

"Oh, so that's it?" Listening to the old lady's story, Officer Wang could probably guess something.

That is, the old man has a different feeling for his hometown. He has lived here for most of his life and is unwilling to leave.

Of course, in a place like this, most people would choose to live in the city.

In the opinion of Officer Wang, the village was built here because the ancestors of the village built the village in the mountains to avoid the war at that time.

Then relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, that's pretty much what it means.

Looking at Gu Chen, Officer Wang quickly asked: "Gu Chen, did you ask?"

"I've asked." Gu Chen replied directly: "Senior Sister Lu and I have already asked the old lady, and the old lady said that during this period, she is the only one living here, and there is no one else."

"I asked her, has Zhang Guifa ever come back? She said no, and said that Zhang Guifa had been here during the Chinese New Year and even set off firecrackers here."

Pointing to the old building on one side, Gu Chen added: "That's Zhang Guifa's old house. Back then, his family lived in this old house."

"Isn't this too old?" Seeing this, Officer Wang walked to the door of the house, looked up and down at the structure of the house, and couldn't help but sigh:
"This old house must be quite old. It looks like it is made of wood and bricks, but now the bricks on the roof don't seem very strong."

Turning to look at Gu Chen, Officer Wang said again: "Then have you gone in to check?"

"Not yet." Lu Weiwei shook her head and said truthfully:

"We just learned about the situation here with the old lady, and we are waiting for you to come over."

"Just in time, the old lady said that the key to Zhang Guifa's old house is stored with her. We can take the key and go in and have a look."

"Really?" Officer Wang was overjoyed when he saw the key was at the old man's house.

Thinking that even if Zhang Guifa didn't hide in his hometown village, he was already here, so he felt that he still had to go in and investigate.

So Lu Weiwei quickly communicated with the old lady. The old lady very slowly took out a large bunch of keys from her waist.

Then he squinted his eyes and began to look for the key slowly.

Lu Weiwei discovered that each of the old man's keys had a piece of white tape with some words written on it.

So Lu Weiwei quickly asked: "Old man, do the words on this key represent the origin of the key?"

"Yes, I'm older. Sometimes, it's hard to remember which key? Which lock to open?"

"So, we need to record all these keys."

"Let me help you." Seeing this, Yuan Shasha quickly took the bunch of keys from the old lady's hand and began to follow the text prompts to find the key to Zhang Guifa's old house.

Not long after, Yuan Shasha took the chosen key in her hand and said with relief;

"I found it, it's the key."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yuan Shasha took off the key and handed it to Gu Chen.

When Gu Chen saw this, he glanced at the old lady in front of him, stood up and walked towards the old house next door.

When Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha saw this, they all followed closely.

Gu Chen used the key to unlock the door in front of him.

It can be said that this door lock looks a bit old and looks a bit like an antique.

Gu Chen opened the door while wearing white gloves, and he was very careful with his movements, not wanting to damage anything here.

But when you push the old wooden door open, you see some old furniture, which gives you a sense of time-travel.

"Oh my God!" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw this scene:
"I just heard Zhang Ying mention it before. My family used to be relatively poor, but I didn't expect it. This is a bit subversive, right?"

"Yes." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but say:

"Every piece of furniture here feels very old, and the old house seems to have not been repaired very much, so it feels shabby."

Shaking her head, Yuan Shasha couldn't understand and said:
"Tell me, this Zhang Guifa made so much money before, why didn't he ever think about restoring this old house?"

"Perhaps they have lived in the city for a long time and don't want to go back to their hometown? After all, living in the city is comfortable." Officer Wang said.

"Maybe." Gu Chen also nodded silently and walked directly into the old house.

From when he unlocked it just now, Gu Chen could tell that the door lock was covered with a thick layer of dust, indicating that no one had been here for a long time.

This means that Zhang Guifa has never been to the old house.

However, for the sake of safety, Gu Chen chose to open the room in Zhang Guifa's old house and go in to see what was going on.

Lu Weiwei pointed at the structure of the room and complained: "It's hard to imagine that this old house is where Zhang Ying lived since she was a child."

“It’s really not easy to grow up in this kind of environment.”

"Maybe." Officer Wang looked around and said involuntarily:

"When it comes to living in this place, if you don't work hard, your life may be over."

"So Zhang Guifa must work hard to earn money in order to escape this fate of poverty."
