I am a super cop

Chapter 2653 The Secret in the Pentagram

Xu Yaxuan's room is very exquisite. It can be said that all the books are arranged very neatly. Gu Chen can even judge from the placement of these books that Xu Yaxuan has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

On Xu Yaxuan's desk, there is a family photo. From the photo, it can be judged that the woman might be Xu Yaxuan's mother.

At this time, Xu Yaxuan looked only a few years old.

At that time, Xu Tianxia had a beard and looked a bit greasy.

Temperament? Not really.

Perhaps Xu Tianxia himself didn't know that in the days to come, he would train himself to become a motivational lecturer for the college entrance examination.

And that kind of temperament that inspires others is completely worthy of the title of mentor.

However, Xu Tianxia in the photo looks more like an ordinary person, the kind of person who would walk on the street and no one would care about him.

"Junior Brother Gu, this might be Xu Yaxuan's mother?" Seeing Gu Chen staring at the photo album for a long time, Lu Weiwei said casually.

"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded silently, and said without hesitation, "Xu Yaxuan has always placed this family photo in front of her desk. It can be seen that she misses the days of family reunion."

"But Xu Yaxuan herself said that her mother abandoned her and her father Xu Tianxia when she was very young, and later left the family and has not been heard from since."

"It's really cruel. How old was Xu Yaxuan at that time? They just abandoned the child like that."

Speaking of this, Lu Weiwei was a little moved. Perhaps she put herself in Xu Yaxuan's shoes and felt that Xu Yaxuan was indeed quite pitiful.

Gu Chen nodded silently and said without hesitation: "It can be seen that Xu Tianxia did not have a good life when he was young."

"So the family conflict could not be resolved. Maybe her lover saw no hope in him, so she chose to leave."

"Or maybe the two people have obvious conflicts in their personalities, and being together is torture."

"only……"

Having said this, Gu Chen also sighed, and then said:

"It's just that Xu Yaxuan is still young, and it's really hard for her to endure the pain of family division."

"In my opinion, maybe it is because of this situation that Xu Yaxuan is stronger?"

"Alas! What's the point of saying this now?" Lu Weiwei picked up the photo frame, examined it carefully, and then put it back on the table, muttering:
"That woman is actually pretty. Even though she's not a great beauty, at least in that era, she would have been pursued by a bunch of men."

"Marrying Xu Tianxia, ​​well, to be honest, I feel that the two of us are not a good match, but at least it shows that Xu Tianxia was indeed attractive when he was young."

"Yeah." Gu Chen agreed with Lu Weiwei and opened Xu Yaxuan's bookcase again.

In addition to the basic classics, there are also some girls' handicrafts on display here.

At the top of the bookcase, Gu Chen found a heart-shaped iron box.

After taking the iron box, Gu Chen opened it and found that it was filled with hand-folded five-pointed stars.

"What is this?" Gu Chen was stunned.

Lu Weiwei turned her head and smiled, saying, "This is actually a five-pointed star that girls fold to kill time when they are bored."

"I remember playing this game when I was in school. I felt that as I saw more and more five-pointed stars, I felt a sense of accomplishment."

"Sometimes, I would write down some of my little secrets or blessings on the colorful paper strips folded into five-pointed stars."

"Hmm? Why don't you open it and take a look?" When Gao Hu heard Lu Weiwei say this, he also suggested opening the five-pointed star.

The young policeman next to him also quickly agreed: "Yes, open it and take a look, maybe we can find some secrets."

"Okay." Seeing that everyone requested this, Lu Weiwei stopped wasting time and immediately opened the folded five-pointed star.

After a while, I found that it was empty.

Lu Weiwei showed the colored paper to everyone and said, "Look, it's empty. Maybe Xu Yaxuan doesn't like to write secrets on it?"

"Maybe this one doesn't exist, but what about the others?" Gu Chen said casually.

Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Chen and asked weakly, "Gu... Junior Brother Gu, you don't want to take all these five-pointed stars apart, do you?"

"Well, if I can get clues to the case, I think I should give it a try." Gu Chen was still the same as always, everything started from the case.

But Lu Weiwei was a little uneasy, and reminded him, "Junior Brother Gu, you have to think it through. It will take a lot of time to dismantle them one by one."

"Besides, if these five-pointed stars are very important to Xu Yaxuan, and she finds out that you have torn down all the five-pointed stars she has accumulated over the years, have you considered the consequences?"

"At worst, you can just help her go back." Gu Chen's words made Lu Weiwei speechless.

Lu Weiwei also tried to suppress her embarrassment and quickly reminded him, "Brother Gu, let's put it this way. It takes a lot of time to disassemble these five-pointed stars. Then, the time it takes to fold the five-pointed stars is definitely several times that of disassembling them. This is a big project."

"Big projects also need to be dismantled." Gu Chen seemed determined to dismantle these paper five-pointed stars, and continued to explain:

"What if Xu Yaxuan really wrote all his secrets over the years in some of these five-pointed stars? If we can solve the case based on these clues after we open them, then what's the harm in spending some time?"

"At worst, we can mobilize the masses and ask the elderly people in the nursing homes to help us go back. They are also happy to kill time in this way."

Gu Chen also gave his own compensation plan.

Seeing that things had come to this, Lu Weiwei could only obey. She turned her head to look at Gao Hu and the young policeman and asked, "What do you think?"

"Uh..." Gao Hu hesitated for a moment, but still agreed:
"If things are really as Director Gu said, there may be Xu Yaxuan's secret hidden in it, then I think we need to take this risk."

Pointing at Gu Chen, Gao Hu said, "Just as Director Gu said, at worst we can mobilize the elderly people in the nursing home to help fold it back."

"We are just looking for clues when we have no choice."

"Okay." Seeing that everyone had reached a unanimous agreement, Lu Weiwei felt that this time she could only "destroy" Xu Yaxuan's childhood.

So everyone moved the iron box to the living room.

Everyone sat on the ground and began to pour the pile of paper five-pointed stars in the iron box onto the ground.

Lu Weiwei also reminded, "Put the unpacked five-pointed stars in the box after checking that there are no problems. If there are any problems, put them on the lid. Does anyone have any questions?"

"No." All the people sitting cross-legged on the ground said that there was no problem. Lu Weiwei nodded silently, then waved her hand and said, "Then let's start. Everyone, be careful."

Seeing this, everyone began to dismantle the pentagram.

But the young policeman seemed a little clumsy. When he was taking down the first five-pointed star, he accidentally tore some of the colored paper.

"Oh!" the young policeman couldn't help but scream.

Gao Hu frowned upon seeing this and reminded him, "Be more serious and don't be careless."

"Got it." After being scolded, the young policeman began to be cautious in his next actions.

However, Gu Chen's finger disassembly movements were smooth and fluid.

But after disassembling one-third of the paper five-pointed stars, Gao Hu felt a little regretful. After all, there was no problem with the colored paper used to fold the five-pointed stars.

Gao Hu couldn't help but sigh, looked up at Gu Chen who was still trying to dismantle it, and said:

"Director Gu, I think we're going in the wrong direction. We've already demolished nearly a third of the place, and there's still no clues."

“Aren’t there still two-thirds that haven’t been demolished? Let’s make a conclusion after all of these are demolished.” Gu Chen’s view is still to not give up until the goal is achieved.

Seeing Gu Chen's persistence, Gao Hu sighed softly, twisted his sore arm, and then continued to dismantle it.

Lu Weiwei was also getting impatient with the dismantling. She stopped, twisted her neck and arms, and complained:
"If Xu Yaxuan is not like I imagined and did not leave anything on these colorful five-pointed stars, then our efforts might really be in vain."

“Isn’t this the childhood you were talking about?” complained the young policeman whose fingers ached.

Lu Weiwei smiled awkwardly: "Maybe my childhood was like this, but it was not Xu Yaxuan's childhood."

"I just feel that Xu Yaxuan, as a girl who has been strong since childhood but lost the affection of her family, should have her own thoughts."

"And this kind of feeling is very distressing, and she usually won't share it with others."

"I like to keep these thoughts to myself, but sometimes, when the pressure is too much to bear, like when I miss my mother so much."

"I knew that would be the most devastating moment. There was nothing I could do except hide in a corner and cry silently."

"Especially when I see children of my peers all with their mothers, the sense of gap is infinitely magnified."

"At this time, Xu Yaxuan might write down his thoughts and pain on these colorful pieces of paper, and then quietly fold them into five-pointed stars."

At this point, Lu Weiwei took one of the colorful five-pointed stars in her hand and gave an example to everyone:
"For example, this five-pointed star, on the surface, is just an ordinary five-pointed star made of colorful paper."

"But for Xu Yaxuan, this may be her longing for her mother, or her yearning for family affection, and her envy of other people's happy families."

With a faint sigh and after calming down briefly, Lu Weiwei continued to take apart the five-pointed star in her hand.

But at this time, Lu Weiwei suddenly discovered that as the colored paper five-pointed stars were constantly being torn apart, Lu Weiwei could vaguely see that some handwritten strokes began to appear inside the colored paper strips.

"Uh..." Lu Weiwei was stunned, thinking that she was too busy and a little dizzy, and had hallucinations for a moment.

So he quickly rubbed his eyes and continued to take apart the colorful five-pointed star in his hand.

But after this teardown, Lu Weiwei made a new discovery: "Uh, I...I seem to have discovered something."

After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, everyone who was still dismantling the five-pointed star immediately turned their eyes to Lu Weiwei.

Gu Chen quickly took the five-pointed star from Lu Weiwei, which had not yet been completely opened.

In a few seconds, the five-pointed star was turned into a piece of paper.

It was only at this time that Gu Chen realized that this was a short sentence, and he read it out loud:
"I hate Zou Yang, I hate Liu Caixia, I hate Zhang Dongyang, I hate that math teacher with glasses, I hate them?"

After reading it aloud, Gu Chen was stunned for a moment and looked up at everyone.

"Let me see." Gao Hu was also confused, and quickly took the colored paper from Gu Chen and continued to check it.

Looking up at Gu Chen, Gao Hu also echoed, "Yes, there really is a secret? This Xu Yaxuan really wrote some of his inner troubles on these colorful five-pointed stars?"

At this point, Gao Hu couldn't help but look at Lu Weiwei beside him, and couldn't help but sigh: "Officer Lu, you are really amazing. You can even find this?"

"Well, it's just luck." I felt that I had discovered some clues by accident.

So Lu Weiwei turned her head to look at Gu Chen and continued, "Junior Brother Gu, it seems that your persistence is right. Maybe there are more secrets about Xu Yaxuan hidden in the remaining five-pointed stars."

"From the note just now, we can see that these people's names may be some of her classmates, as well as the math teacher with glasses. They must have been mean to her, and she feels very aggrieved."

“So, I wrote down all my grievances on the colored paper.”

"This shows that our judgment is correct. These five-pointed stars are Xu Yaxuan's punching bag."

"Then don't hesitate, just take down the rest and have a look." Seeing the new discovery, Gu Chen instantly became cautious and started to speed up the dismantling process.

Upon seeing this, Gao Hu and the young policeman immediately started to take action.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Lu Weiwei didn't want to be left behind.

If we say that everyone had some complaints before, they were complaining that doing these useless tasks was a waste of time and energy.

The current results make everyone realize that sometimes Gu Chen’s intuition is really accurate.

Especially Gu Chen's persistence in handling the case.

Sometimes, the most crucial clue may be in the most conspicuous place, but no one chooses to discover it.

"Hey, I found another one here." Everyone was still dismantling it, and Lu Weiwei seemed to have found another one.

So everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and gathered around Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei also began to carefully open the colored paper with traces of writing, and then open it again until she could see all the contents on it clearly.

But when she saw the content clearly, Lu Weiwei was stunned and silently said aloud: "I...I really want to kill someone?"
