I am a super cop

"Northerners? Not all northerners like dumplings, right? I like dumplings very much." After hearing what the landlady said, Officer Wang quickly refuted.

The landlady waved her hands and said, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that their accents are a bit like northerners."

"Accent?" After being stunned, Officer Wang nodded silently: "Okay, besides that, how much do you know about them?"

"No more." The landlady shook her head.

"That's all?" Officer Wang felt that there were too few clues.

But the landlady smiled bitterly and said, "They just had a meal here. How much can I know about them?"

"Besides, they didn't talk much at first. They just said a few words when I brought the dumplings to them."

"When I heard the accent, it seemed like they were all from the north, that's all."

"Okay." Nodding silently, Officer Wang continued to ask: "After that, they paid for the meal with their mobile phones to..."

"No, they gave me cash." Before Officer Wang could finish his words, the landlady retorted.

Officer Wang was stunned: "Cash? Not paying with a mobile phone?"

"No." At this time, the boss also shook his head and quickly said:

"I said you could pay with your mobile phone, but they insisted on using cash. They said it was outdoors and there was often no mobile phone signal, so they prepared a lot of change."

"Is that so?" When Gu Chen heard this, he also frowned and asked quickly: "Then do you still have the cash they gave you?"

"Uh……"

The boss was stunned and a little confused.

Lu Weiwei quickly understood Gu Chen's inner operating system, so she quickly explained to her boss:

"Boss, don't worry. What my junior brother means is that they didn't wear gloves when paying cash, right?"

"That's not true." The boss shook his head and said truthfully:

"They didn't carry gloves when they ate, and when they paid cash, they took it out of their pockets."

"Are they a few pieces of paper and pen?" Lu Qiang asked.

The boss shook his head: "No, it's a hundred-yuan note. They said there would be no signal when going to the mountain and it would be inconvenient to buy things, so they wanted to use the hundred-yuan note to exchange some change with me."

"This is quite funny when I think about it. In the mountains here, that is, in some rural areas, there are signals in the countryside. There are also individual farmers who have small shops and can pay with mobile phones. It is perfectly fine."

"But they didn't seem to know much about this, so they gave me a hundred-dollar bill, and then I gave them some change."

"Yes." As soon as the boss finished speaking, the wife of the boss also echoed:

"I still remember this, because many of the people who come here to eat pay with their mobile phones, and some elementary school students will give some change when they come here to eat at noon."

"So, we still have some change here. For his 100 yuan, we had to give him a lot of change. So I joked with my husband at the time that this kid could just use change to pay the bill. Adults also use banknotes. .”

"Okay." After hearing this, Gu Chen quickly asked: "Is this note still there?"

"Yes." The landlady nodded silently and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"Maybe there will be their fingerprints on that note." Gu Chen said.

The landlady was stunned for a moment, with a look of horror on her face: "Then...then when we take the banknotes, we will also leave our fingerprints."

"It doesn't matter. I'll record your fingerprints later and compare the situation." Officer Wang also knew what Gu Chen was thinking, so he quickly explained it to these two people.

The two couples looked at each other, as if they felt that these police officers were really investigating the case.

But after all, we have to cooperate with the work. The landlady glanced at her husband, touched her shoulder, and signaled:

"Husband, go take a look in the drawer. It seems that the hundred-dollar bill is still in the drawer."

"Okay." The boss didn't dare to be lazy. He immediately turned back to the cashier, opened the drawer, and took out a stainless steel iron box from inside.

Then, he opened the iron folder and quickly found the hundred-yuan bill, so he hurriedly handed it to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen did not answer it immediately, but took out a small transparent evidence bag that he carried with him and asked the boss to put the hundred-yuan banknotes into it.

After that, Gu Chen took out the writing pen he carried with him, wrote the number on the transparent evidence collection bag, and took photos to collect evidence.

After completing the operation, Gu Chen looked at the couple and said, "We have to take this hundred-yuan bill back for investigation, and then we'll pay you for the meal."

"Okay." I have never seen the police operate like this. It was the first time they encountered this kind of thing, and the couple still seemed a little nervous.

The landlady quickly nodded in agreement, and then motioned to Gu Chen to scan the QR code on the table.

After completing the operation, Gu Chen used tape to simply extract the fingerprint samples of the two couples, which made it easier to distinguish the fingerprint samples on the hundred-yuan banknotes.

After completing all operations, Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Lu Qiang back to their respective dormitories.

In Gu Chen's dormitory, everyone gathered together to discuss the situation.

"I think there must be something fishy about this matter. It's definitely not that simple for these two northerners to suddenly come to Baisui Peak in Tai City. Moreover, the time they came here coincided with the disappearance of Yuan Shasha and Yanzi. Match."

"If it is a coincidence, it can only mean that they came at the wrong time. As for the other two groups of outdoor climbers, their suspicions are very small."

Officer Wang also shared his views with everyone.

Gu Chen glanced in Lu Qiang's direction and continued:

"Senior Brother Lu, you can take this hundred-yuan banknote sample to Taipei City for fingerprint sample analysis to see if you can extract the top fingerprints?"

"We will use the clues provided by everyone to find out the appearance of those two people, especially the surveillance cameras going to Baisui Peak Town."

"I understand." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Qiang nodded silently and couldn't help but said, "I can ask my colleagues from the municipal bureau to leave this to me."

"Very good." Gu Chen nodded silently and added, "Also, tomorrow we have to go to Hemu Village and conduct a search of the surrounding situation."

"You still want to go to Hemu Village?" Lu Qiang also frowned after hearing what Gu Chen said.

Gu Chen said with a smile: "Don't forget, Xiao Yuan and Yanzi's luggage is still at home. We will bring the lock picking tool tomorrow to pick the door lock, and then check their luggage to see if they can Can't find any useful clues."

Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Qiang slapped his head and suddenly realized: "Ouch! Look at me? I've been feeling a little dizzy every day, and I actually forgot about this."

With a faint sigh, Lu Qiang said again: "Okay, let's go to Hemu Village again tomorrow, then pry open the door lock, check the luggage of these two people, and see what's in it?"

Looking down at his watch, Lu Qiang added, "But now, can everyone go to bed early?"

"Of course." Gu Chen took the lead slightly, indicating that everyone could disperse early.

So, after a few brief exchanges, everyone went back to their dormitories.

……

……

The next morning.

Because everyone's investigation of Hemu Village yesterday gave everyone a preliminary understanding.

So, the next day, everyone got up early and prepared to drive to Hemu Village together.

"It's six o'clock in the morning, and Father Sun hasn't come out yet." Officer Wang looked down at his phone and said jokingly.

Gu Chen smiled and said: "Time waits for no one, we have to seize all the time. Let's set off now. We will almost arrive at Hemu Village at dawn."

"In this way, we can check Xiao Yuan and Yanzi's luggage earlier, and then take more time to investigate the situation around the village. This way, we will have more time."

"Okay, I'll let you take care of the situation." Seeing that Gu Chen had said this, Lu Qiang, who was a little tired, could only nod in agreement.

After all, the work attitude of this group of people is to work vigorously and resolutely. What about rest? In my opinion, this group of people is not tired at all.

So, after starting the vehicle, everyone drove to Hemu Village for the second time.

But this time, everyone was familiar with the roads and had a preliminary understanding of the roads, so Lu Qiang drove much faster.

But the fog in the mountains is still very heavy, and it feels like you are in a fairyland on earth.

And when everyone parked their vehicles in the parking lot outside Hemu Village, they discovered that the color of the sky also began to change.

Obviously, the sun has risen, but it still cannot penetrate the thick fog.

"Let's go." After getting out of the car, Gu Chen reminded him with a lock picking tool.

After everyone carried their own equipment, they walked directly to the Yanzi family's old house.

But this time, everyone quickly found the door of Yanzi's house.

Lu Weiwei looked around and said curiously: "It's strange, why didn't you see that old piece of wood today?"

"Is it still early? I guess he hasn't come out yet." Officer Wang said.

"That's right." Lu Weiwei nodded silently and said with a smile: "When we met Lao Mumu yesterday, he had just left the village, but today we came too early, so he probably didn't expect it."

"Stop talking about this, hurry up and unlock the door." Lu Qiang said.

"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded silently, and then picked up the tool pliers in his hand.

But while cutting the door lock, Gu Chen suddenly paused, walked to the window, and subconsciously glanced at the situation inside.

But this look made Gu Chen's face turn blue and he froze in place.

When Lu Qiang saw this, he also asked curiously: "What's wrong, Gu Bureau?"

"No." Gu Chen shook his head.

"What's wrong? Isn't this the Yanzi family's old house?" Lu Qiang was a little confused and continued to ask.

Gu Chen looked at everyone with a horrified expression and said, "Yan Zi and Xiao Yuan's luggage is missing."

"What?"

After hearing Gu Chen's words, everyone suddenly looked panicked.

Afterwards, the three of them hurried to the window and looked into the house along the window.

But after a while, everyone was stunned on the spot.

Lu Weiwei was also stunned and said: "This, this, what's going on? When I came yesterday, this luggage was still in the room, but why is it today..."

"No, has someone come in?" Officer Wang frowned and looked towards the door.

Lu Qiang pointed to the door lock and said, "But the door lock is locked. How can it be opened without the key?"

"The back door." Lu Weiwei reminded.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling that someone had secretly entered the Yanzi family's old house.

Because this kind of old house has front and back doors.

Since the front door was locked, it was likely that someone entered from behind.

So, everyone immediately put down the tools at hand, bypassed the side passage of the old house, and came to the back row of the old house.

But when they walked into the damaged yard and reached the back door, everyone was stunned again.

"The back...the back door is also locked." Lu Weiwei said blankly.

Gu Chen stepped forward, also wearing white gloves, and gently pulled the door lock with his hand.

But the door lock at this moment was still strong, and it didn't seem like the kind of door lock that would break when touched.

"Why is this happening? When I came to see it yesterday, everything was fine here. Why is it today..."

Officer Wang took a breath and couldn't believe his eyes.

Lu Qiang said in disbelief: "Could it be that Yan Zi, Xiao Yuan and the others have returned?"

"Impossible." Gu Chen shook his head and said involuntarily: "Xiao Yuan has been out of contact for a few days."

"And I have missed the time to go to work. If I were Xiao Yuan, even if I encountered some difficulties, I would contact us on the mobile phone as soon as possible. However, we did not receive any messages or calls from Xiao Yuan. Any phone call.”

"This shows that Xiao Yuan did not appear here, and the person who took their luggage may be someone else."

"Oh my god, how could this happen?" When Lu Qiang heard this, he fell into a panic.

Officer Wang also turned blue and said, "Something's wrong. There must be something wrong."

"Xiao Yuan and Yan Zi's luggage was clearly placed in the room. We all saw it yesterday."

"Moreover, people in the village have seen it before, if they have the key."

"Then, they will definitely open the door and go in to check the situation, but they have not done so in the past few days."

"But why did this happen so early this morning, just when we were about to open the door and investigate Xiao Yuan and Yanzi's luggage? It can only mean that there is one possibility."

"What's the possibility?" Lu Weiwei looked at Officer Wang curiously.

Officer Wang also looked gloomy and said slowly: "That is, the villagers have the key to this old house, and they used the key to open the door last night."

"Because when we picked up the car yesterday, we also came to the window to check on the luggage."

"That's right." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Qiang quickly echoed: "We all went to the window to observe. The luggage of the two of them was indeed placed in the room."

"That's why we discussed that we would come over early this morning to investigate and bring the lock removal tools."

"But." Lu Weiwei frowned slightly and said slowly: "But, who did it in just one night? And it was still silent, and the door lock was not broken?"

Officer Wang flicked his finger: "Go to the village chief. You can only go to the village chief for this matter."

"I'll go, you stay here, I'll call the village chief over." Lu Qiang also volunteered.

Afterwards, everyone stayed at the door of Yanzi's old house, while Lu Qiang ran to the village chief's house.

Not long after, everyone saw two figures looming in the fog.

Lu Qiang led the village chief in a military coat all the way to the door of Yanzi's old house.

At this time, the village chief seemed to have just been woken up from bed by Lu Qiang. He was wearing a warm hat and cotton shoes, breathing heavily, and walked up to the crowd with a puzzled look on his face.

"Village chief, what's going on?" Officer Wang said.

"Let me take a look." The village chief seemed a little confused by this incident, so he quickly moved to the window and shined a flashlight into the room through the window glass.

But after a while of observation, the village chief was stunned. He turned to look at Gu Chen and the others, and said with a puzzled look on his face:

"Um...I don't know what's going on? This was obviously still there before. I also came to see it yesterday. The luggage is indeed still there?"

"Then how come it disappeared?" Lu Weiwei said.

The village chief scratched his cheek, then went to the door again. Seeing that the door lock was intact, the village chief looked at Gu Chen and others.

"The door lock is good. We also checked the back door. The door lock over there is also good." Gu Chen knew what the village chief wanted to ask? So he answered directly.

The village chief was stunned and said without knowing what was going on: "Then what's going on? It's so late at night, could it be that there's a ghost?"

"It's impossible to see a ghost. There is only one possibility. Someone opened the door lock and took away the luggage inside." Officer Wang said.

"Is that so? Who could that be?" After hearing Officer Wang's words, the village chief also looked confused.

Officer Wang laughed dryly and couldn't help but said: "I still have to ask you this? You are the village chief here and you live in Hemu Village."

"When we returned to town last night, our luggage was still there."

"I know, I know the luggage is always there, but after you left, I don't know who has been here?"

The village chief is also in a panic now, and he seems unable to explain what is going on?

So he came to the door again and wanted to touch the door lock with both hands.

Lu Weiwei quickly called out: "Don't move."

The village chief's outstretched hand suddenly stopped there and turned to look at Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei stepped forward and reminded, "Don't leave your fingerprints on the door lock."

"Okay... okay." After hearing Lu Weiwei's words, the village chief retracted his hands and said anxiously:

"But how do you unlock this door?"

"How do I know?" Lu Weiwei was also helpless, so she turned to look at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen looked in the direction of the village chief and asked:

"Village Chief, when Grandma Yanzi passed away, did you give the keys to the old house to the villagers for safekeeping?"

"No." The village chief shook his head and quickly explained: "Only Yanzi has the key to the door lock of Yanzi's old house."

"When her grandmother passed away, she changed the door locks, but instead of leaving the spare keys with the villagers, she took them all with her."

"Later, when she returned to the village, she opened it with the key herself, and then she cleaned the room."

After thinking for a while, the village chief added: "Oh, by the way, she cleaned with the girl who came here with her. She just briefly cleaned the bedroom."

"As for other places, maybe they were simply cleaned? I don't know the details, and I haven't been in them."

"Okay." After hearing what the village chief said, Gu Chen asked again, "Did you hear any strange noises last night?"

"Last night?" The village chief was stunned and quickly replied:

"Oh! Last night, the wind blew outside, and there was quite a lot of noise. The surrounding trees were also rustling."

"You want to tell me what you heard last night? I think it might be the swaying of the trees?"

"Didn't you hear anything else?" Lu Weiwei said.

The village chief shook his head: "To be honest, I didn't hear anything else? Besides, I went to bed early."

"Okay." Seeing that the village chief couldn't ask much, Lu Weiwei looked in the direction of Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang understood immediately, so he picked up the tools on the ground and went directly to the door lock.

Aim the pliers at the door lock and cut the door lock with only a little force.

As the door lock fell to the ground with a bang, Lu Weiwei immediately put on white gloves, took out the small evidence collection bag, put the broken door lock back into the evidence collection bag, and completed the photo collection work.

Then, when everyone opened the door, an unpleasant smell suddenly hit their faces.

Everyone subconsciously fanned the flames with their palms.

"Ahem, no one has been living here for some days, right? Even if the swallows come back, she should open the windows for ventilation after cleaning."

"And now, with this smell, Yan Zi and Xiao Yuan must have not lived here for a few days."

Lu Weiwei also shared her feelings about the smell in the room with everyone.

Officer Wang also raised his nose and said involuntarily: "That's right, no one has been here for a few days."

"But, someone must have been here last night, otherwise Xiao Yuan and Yan Zi's luggage would not have disappeared like this."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chen had already started to put on the glove.

Seeing this, several other people also followed suit.

After completing the protective work, Gu Chen put on his mask and reminded the village chief: "Village Chief, please, please stand at the door and don't come in."

"Okay." After hearing what Gu Chen said, he watched Gu Chen and others put on protective equipment.

The village chief is a sensible person and knows how many people are going to enter the house to search.

The village chief, who wanted to avoid leaving any traces, could only stand at the door with his arms folded, his neck curled up, and wait quietly.

Gu Chen, who was the first to walk into the living room, subconsciously glanced in the direction in front of him, especially the surrounding furnishings. There didn't seem to be much doubt.

Of course, the key point for Gu Chen was to enter the room and conduct a search.

At this moment, when Gu Chen came to the door of the room, he discovered that it had only been briefly cleaned, including the bed, bedside table, dressing table, etc.

Others were not cleaned deliberately, including the gaps in some furniture, and there was still a lot of dust.

However, the focus of Gu Chen's investigation was obviously not these things, but the suitcases placed on the ground.

"Junior Brother Gu, when we looked in from the window earlier, these luggages were placed in this position." Lu Weiwei walked up to Gu Chen and pointed to one of the areas.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "I know, the ground here is made of cement, but there are not many traces of friction, only some new dust."

As Gu Chen spoke, he quickly found the light switch in the room.

So, Gu Chen went to the light switch and turned it on with his hand.

With a "click" sound, the light was not turned on.

Upon seeing this, Officer Wang quickly retreated to the living room.

Lu Qiang quickly found the main gate and quickly reminded: "The main gate switch is not turned on."

While talking, Lu Qiang pushed up the main switch, and soon, the lights in the room also turned on.

But even with the lighting, the room was still dim. Only then did everyone realize that the light in the room was just an ordinary light bulb.

The dim light brings some orange light to the whole room.

But for Gu Chen, these light sources are enough.

So Gu Chen squatted down and went to where Yuan Shasha and Yanzi were stacking their luggage, and used his bright flashlight to shine on the ground.

Officer Wang came over to take a look and reminded him: "The luggage should be placed here. Look, there are some small marks on the ground."

"There's a little bit of dust around here, but there's not much dust here in the middle."

"It can be seen that the luggage was left here and ate some dust, but later, last night, it was quietly taken away."

"Yes." After hearing Officer Wang's words, Lu Weiwei nodded silently and said involuntarily:

"The person who took the luggage is probably related to the disappearance of Xiao Yuan and Yan Zi."

"Otherwise, why took advantage of last night to secretly take away the luggage?"

"Who knows?" Lu Qiang stood at the door and said with a worried look on his face:

"If I had known earlier, I would have pried open the door yesterday. If you hadn't been worried that breaking the door lock without professional tools would damage the traces and disturb the villagers of Hemu Village."

"I could have just smashed the lock last night, and I wouldn't have encountered anything like this today."

"Don't worry." Seeing Lu Qiang's depressed face, Gu Chen quickly comforted him and said:

"This also just shows that the missing people like Xiao Yuan and Yan Zi are very likely to be related to this Hemu Village."

"Moreover, the other party is eager to take away the luggage for one purpose, and that is to prevent us from finding clues."

With a sigh, Gu Chen added: "It can be seen that the other party obviously knows that the police are already investigating this matter."

"Because the other party started to be afraid, that's why the other party started to act."

"Yes." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei quickly agreed: "Obviously, the other party has panicked and started to take action."

"No matter how well the other party hid it before, now it is starting to be exposed."

Looking left and right, Lu Weiwei said again: "We haven't been able to find relevant clues before, so we don't know where to start?"

"Okay, now, the other party couldn't calm down and was scared at first. Then, the other party secretly took away Xiao Yuan and Yan Zi's luggage here at night, which just shows that this person is near Hemu Village."

"Well, maybe." Lu Qiang didn't know what to say now. I just feel that this matter seems to be far from that simple.

Officer Wang crossed his arms and looked around, and then said: "In my opinion, the other party may be an acquaintance of Yan Zi."

"Now that I see the police coming here to investigate, I may be panicking, so I just want to quickly hide everything related to Xiao Yuan and Yanzi."

"No matter whether these things are helpful to our investigation or not, the other party will start destroying the evidence."

"This just shows that the other person should be a very familiar person to Yanzi."

With a faint sigh, Officer Wang looked at Lu Qiang and said, "Moreover, the other party started acting last night, after we came down from the mountain."

"But, at that time, there were not many people on the mountain. Could it be that this person is from Hemu Village?"

"You have to ask the village chief about this," Lu Qiang said.

Officer Wang snapped his fingers and said as a reminder: "Hurry up to the village chief and ask him to do a count to see if all the people in the village are here?"

"If last night, we secretly sneaked into Yanzi's old house and took away Yanzi and Xiao Yuan's luggage, then it would be difficult to hide these things."

"Or just throw it away in the mountains and forests, and then find a way to dispose of it after it is out of the limelight."

"Either you can hide it in your own home temporarily. After all, the time is so short and it's still early in the morning, so it's impossible to put it far away."

With a sigh, Officer Wang continued: "In this way, let's check the villagers in Hemu Village to see who went out last night, so we can roughly determine who entered the Yanzi family's old house."

"This is the only way." Seeing what Officer Wang said, Lu Qiang sighed heavily, and then led everyone to the door.

At this moment, the village chief, who was standing at the door and shivering from the cold, was still stamping his feet.

Seeing everyone coming out of the house, the village chief, who was shrinking his neck, also took a step forward and asked curiously: "How is it? Did you find anything?"

"You should know how many people there are in the village now, right?" Lu Qiang asked.

"It's clear, there are only a dozen or so people." The village chief said.

"Very good." Lu Qiang nodded silently and said as a reminder: "Village Chief, if you are like this, please help us do some statistics to see if all the people in the village are at home."

"In particular, I want to ask who was out last night."

"Now?" After hearing Lu Qiang's words, the village chief also asked curiously.

Lu Qiang nodded fiercely: "Yes, right now, hurry up and make statistics. The person who sneaked into Yanzi's old house and took away Yanzi's luggage may be a villager. You hurry up and make statistics."

"We remain here and continue to investigate other leads."

"Okay... okay." Seeing that Lu Qiang had said this, the village chief, who looked worried, could only reluctantly agree.

Then, based on his familiarity with the people left behind in the village, the village chief began to walk towards the head of the village, preparing to go door to door to conduct a census of the people.
