I am a super cop

Chapter 696 18 Seconds Video

In the surveillance screen, a man wearing a peaked cap looked around for a week before walking up to the female manager and asking the female manager about the situation.

After the two stood at the door and exchanged a few words, the female manager pointed to a suite, as if introducing the situation of the room.

Not long after, the man nodded and left...

"Stop!" Gu Chen directly stopped the monitoring.

The security guard obeyed and asked, "Is there a problem here?"

"Who is he?" Gu Chen asked.

After the hotel manager stepped forward to observe, he also shook his head: "I have never seen this person before, he must be a customer of the hotel."

"This person has never been able to see his face, but judging from his walking posture, he should be a middle-aged man." Lu Weiwei stood aside and expressed her opinion.

Xiao Yang squinted his eyes and said: "This man is still bald, look at the back of his head, there is almost no hair."

"Baldhead, middle-aged man, strange customer." Gu Chen muttered to himself, and after thinking for a while, he asked the security guard on duty: "Can you call out the surveillance camera in the hotel lobby? Check out this bald man wearing a peaked cap."

"This is no problem." The security guard nodded silently, and directly moved the time forward, adjusting to the perspective of the hall.

It is worth noting that from the perspective of the lobby, the man in the peaked cap still cannot see the specific face clearly.

The man in the peaked cap seems to be very concerned about his privacy. The black mask covers most of his face, and the brim of the cap is also pressed very low.

No matter how the security guard adjusted the observation angle, it was always difficult to see the man's face clearly.

"Comrade policeman, I did my best." The security guard shrugged and looked at Gu Chen helplessly.

Gu Chen didn't speak, but continued to observe the situation in the hall.

When the man in the peaked cap walked into the elevator, the front desk staff just glanced casually and didn't pay much attention.

The man in the peaked cap also ran into the female manager and the cleaning lady after entering the floor where Chen Feng lived.

What happened afterwards was consistent with what everyone saw in the passage.

"Manager." Gu Chen looked back at the customer service manager and asked, "Is this female manager on duty tonight?"

"Not on duty, but she's staying at the Oasis Hotel."

"Call her over." Xiao Yang said.

The manager of the customer service department still hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing: "Alright then, I'll wake her up."

……

……

About ten minutes later, a fat female manager put on a coat and followed behind the customer service manager.

Seeing many policemen standing in the monitoring room, the female manager couldn't help being taken aback, and asked weakly, "Excuse me...you asked me to come here, what exactly do you want to know?"

"Do you still have any impression of this person?" Gu Chen asked, pointing to the video of the female manager talking to the man in the cap.

"Him? He seems to be here to ask about the price of the room." The female manager took a closer look and said with certainty, "Yes, that's right. He went to the floor of the apartment suite that day and wanted to see the accommodation here."

"I asked him to go down to the front desk to ask, but he told me, will our price be too high? There should be no one to live in or something."

"Then I told him that Chen Feng, the star of the Jiangbei Magic team, reserved this room, and then he wanted to see it, but I didn't agree, so I asked him to go directly to the front desk to get the key, and just like that, he said a few words and left. "

"So you think he's a customer staying at the store?" Lu Weiwei asked beside him.

The female manager Dai frowned slightly, and said weakly: "I'm not sure if it's a customer, but he asked about the price, and it seems that he wants to book a room for someone. I'm not very clear about the details, but it still feels strange." weird."

Xiao Yang glanced at Gu Chen, and said: "This guy is probably here to check out the location. He used the hotel reservation as a cover to get out of the room that Chen Feng reserved. The purpose is to make it easier for him to find the right time to cable down from the top floor to the exact location." .”

"That's right." Gu Chen also agreed with Xiao Yang's opinion very much, and said calmly: "This guy's stepping on the spot should be true. After all, if he wants to know the room Chen Feng booked, he must come to confirm it in person. The murderer in this link is unavoidable." of."

Turning around to look at the female manager, Gu Chen asked again: "Then do you still remember what this person looks like?"

"This..." The female manager hesitated, and said weakly: "He was wearing a peaked cap and a mask at the time, I really don't remember much."

"However, I remember that he had a sarcoma on one side of the corner of his eye, which was quite large, and he shaved his head bald."

"There's a sarcoma on one side of the corner of the eye?" According to the female manager's words, Gu Chen suddenly flashed a flash of lightning in his mind, as if he had seen this person somewhere before.

But in a blink of an eye, Gu Chen suddenly remembered the scene where he and Lu Weiwei helped the ponytailed man Alai outside the Red Arrow Stadium tonight. There was indeed a large sarcoma in the corner of Alai's eye, which seemed to be the same as what the female manager said. The situation is relatively consistent.

Gu Chen turned around and asked Lu Weiwei: "Senior Sister Lu, do you still remember that ponytail Alai?"

"Of course I remember, I even gave him a ticket." Lu Weiwei said.

"Then do you still remember the position of the corner of his eye, is there a sarcoid?" Gu Chen asked again.

"This... seems to be there." After thinking carefully for a few seconds, Lu Weiwei suddenly said: "Wait a minute, I seem to have a live video, wait a moment."

After the words fell, Lu Weiwei quickly took out her mobile phone and opened the photo album taken at the Red Arrow Stadium tonight.

Everyone lowered their heads and gathered together, wanting to see what it was.

But when you click on the first picture, Gu Chen's 45-degree profile shot is revealed. From the point of view, Gu Chen is watching the ball at the moment, and Lu Weiwei's angle is obviously a candid shot.

Lu Weiwei was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "I just randomly took pictures, and I will find them for you."

After returning to the directory, Gu Chen's photos and videos almost occupied the entire screen again.

Everyone looked at Lu Weiwei in confusion, but Lu Weiwei lowered her head and said shyly, "Anyway, I don't know much about basketball, so I just took some photos."

"Is this called random shooting?" Xiao Yang also laughed and said, "You are using Gu Chen as a model, let's see how many pictures you have taken? Wouldn't it be annoying for you to take three or four pictures from one angle?"

"Isn't this a snapshot? Pick one that looks good and keep it, and delete all the others." Lu Weiwei shrugged and said guiltily: "It's not important anyway, what matters is that I captured the video of the scene."

Lu Weiwei kept swipe down with her right hand, thinking that she should find it quickly, with so many eyes staring at her, it would be too embarrassing to see Gu Chen's candid photos in her cell phone album.

When she finally slid to a position below, Lu Weiwei quickly stopped and clicked on an 18-second video.

At this moment, the court is still hot.

The commentator in the front row, Mr. Zhang Keping, was still giving a wonderful commentary, but Lu Weiwei turned on the mirror camera at the moment, and with Gu Chen and A Lai with ponytail as the background, he made gestures of scissorhands from various angles.

In the 18-second video, Lu Weiwei went from far to near, and finally stuck to Gu Chen's side. It wasn't until the 16th second that Alai with the ponytail noticed Lu Weiwei, and then made an "OK" smiling face gesture towards the camera.

"Stop here." Gu Chen hurriedly said.

At this moment, the video has already finished playing, Lu Weiwei clicked the play button again, the time axis moved to the 16 second position, and pressed pause.

Gu Chen picked up Lu Weiwei's phone, pointed it in front of the female manager and said, "Look carefully, is it this person?"

"No, I've already said that the man is bald, not long-haired."

"Don't worry about your hairstyle." Gu Chen raised his left hand, followed the direction of the screen, covered Alai's face, and asked, "What about now? Just pretend he's wearing a mask, and take a closer look."

"Okay." The female manager nodded, and hurriedly bowed her body, looking left and right at the phone screen.

But soon, the female manager's expression changed subtly. From the indifferent at the beginning, she became more and more nervous.

"How is it?" Gu Chen asked, "Do you feel any similarities?"

"Yes." The female manager nodded slightly, and thoughtfully said: "The people in this video, if you cover your face, they do look alike."

"And there is indeed a sarcoma in the corner of his eye, which is very similar to the man I met in the aisle."

After hesitating for a few seconds, the female manager said again: "But, the man I saw at the beginning had a bald head, but this man has a ponytail."

"It doesn't matter." Gu Chen retracted his phone and let out a long sigh: "If you are sure that this person is right, there is only one explanation, the ponytail Alai in our video is actually wearing a wig. "

"And his true face is bald. He uses this method to make you only remember that he is bald, but you ignore that he can actually wear a wig."

"Especially this kind of long ponytail wig to increase the contrast, the purpose is actually to mislead the police investigation."

"That's right." Lu Weiwei also agreed very much: "But there is one thing that is difficult to change, and that is the sarcoma in the corner of his eye."

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and said, "I remember that Alai and Zhang Zhexi are already very familiar with Wang Zhigang, and they should belong to the people who have more exposure to basketball."

"Besides, Allais also worked in a sports operation company earlier, and had some contact with the team and club. If he was the one who played tricks, it is indeed possible."

"Then we need to investigate Alai's whereabouts immediately." After Xiao Yang got this information, he suddenly realized.

Gu Chen waved his hand and said, "No hurry, let me check first."

Taking out his mobile phone, Gu Chen searched for information about Alai in the search engine.

But there were a lot of link information that popped up, and then Gu Chen added the keyword "sportsman" in front of "Alai".

Soon, information about "Sportsman Alai" appeared at the top of the search engine.

"Yes, Alai's original name is Zhang Lai, and he is a native of Jiangnan City. Based on this, we can check his identity information." Gu Chen said.

Xiao Yang glanced at the police officer beside him and said, "Go and check Zhang Lai's information, and tell me where he is in Jiangnan City recently."

"No problem." The second-level superintendent nodded, and immediately began to investigate.

It didn't take long for the news from the second superintendent: "Zhang Lai is staying at a hotel near the Oasis Hotel tonight."

"Where is it?" Xiao Yang asked.

The second-level superintendent frowned, pointed out the window and said, "It's just across the road from the Oasis Hotel at Chenxin Hotel, and his room opening record is 302."

"I can't control that much anymore." Xiao Yang put on his equipment and said directly: "Follow me to Room 302 of Chenxin Hotel to arrest people."

……

……

Leaving the monitoring room of Oasis Hotel, the group walked across the main road and came directly to Chenxin Hotel.

After revealing his identity, he got the room card from the front desk and came to the door of room 302.

Xiao Yang didn't play tricks, he slammed the door and said, "People inside, come out for me, come out quickly."

"Who... who is it?" Gu Chen could hear Alai's movement from inside the room.

"Dong, dong, dong!" Xiao Yang slammed it three times, and shouted loudly: "The police check the room, open the door quickly."

Suddenly there was no movement in the house.

And Xiao Yang continued to knock on the door.

In the past five or six minutes, the cat's eye of the door suddenly went dark.

After a while, the lock in the room was unlocked. Alai poked his head out cautiously, and asked weakly, "What do you need from me?"

"Your name is Zhang Lai?" Xiao Yang asked him.

Alai with ponytail nodded silently: "No... that's right, my name is Zhang Lai, what's wrong?"

Xiao Yang stared at Alai in front of him, looked him up and down, and then said: "Have you been to the Oasis Hotel these few days?"

"No...no? What am I doing there?" Alai was also puzzled by Xiao Yang's words, so he couldn't help but said with a smile.

But when he turned around, he found that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, who were sitting with him at the Red Arrow Stadium watching the game, stared blankly, and asked weakly:
"Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, you... why are you here?"

"We are the police from the Furong branch, here to assist in handling the case." Gu Chen stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Lai's hair, and then lifted it upwards.

"Hey!" Zhang Lai screamed, and quickly covered his hair with both hands, angrily said: "Gu Chen, what are you doing?"

"Are you wearing a wig?" Gu Chen let go, and at this moment, the ponytail wig on the top of Zhang Lai's head has been tilted to one side, and there are obvious signs of degumming.

Zhang Lai pressed his scalp tightly in a panic, and then retorted: "What's wrong with me wearing a wig? Is it illegal to wear a wig?"

"Wearing a wig is not against the law, but murder is against the law." Lu Weiwei stepped forward and said, "You are suspected of being involved in a murder case. Now we are going to take you to investigate, please cooperate."

"Hehe, I'm suspected of being involved in the murder case?" Zhang Lai sneered twice, and retorted: "You have no evidence, so you can't slander people like this?"

While Zhang Lai was proud, Gu Chen had already shown the screenshot of the video in front of him, and asked, "Is the man in the peaked cap in this video you?"

Zhang Lai stared blankly: "This...what is this? I...I don't know, where is this?"

"Oasis Hotel, which is the floor where Chen Feng lives." Lu Weiwei answered.

"Chen Feng?" Zhang Lai was stunned, and asked weakly: "Where does Chen Feng live, what does it have to do with me? Besides, this is not me, I have never been there at all."

"Chen Feng died of poisoning in the apartment tonight, and the forensic doctor is currently conducting an autopsy on him." Gu Chen didn't want to go around with Zhang Lai, and said bluntly: "At present, we suspect that the person who went to the scene to check on the site is you."

"Chen Feng is dead?" Zhang Lai was taken aback when he heard Gu Chen's words, but he quickly came to his senses and said, "So, I became a murderer after I watched a football game with you? What does it matter to me whether Chen Feng is dead or not?"

"He died in the apartment, but I have never been to the apartment. What do you want me to do?"

"It doesn't matter whether you have been there or not, we will find out the track of your activities." Seeing Zhang Lai's glib tongue, Xiao Yang was also very upset.

Then he pushed Zhang Lai away and walked directly into the hotel room.

"Eh? What do you want to do? This is my room. What do you guys want to do?"

Zhang Lai couldn't stop Xiao Yang, to be precise, he couldn't stop the policemen at the door.

Everyone went directly into the room and found the same clothes as in the video on the hanger next to the bed.

The man in the peaked cap in the video is wearing black overalls and a beige jacket.

And on the hanger in the hotel room, the whole set of clothes is the same as that worn by the man in the peaked cap at the Oasis Hotel.

Gu Chen also found the black baseball cap on the desk. Judging from the comparison of the logo, it is almost exactly the same style as the cap worn by the man in the video.

All these clothes, plus the sarcoma at the corner of the eye that the female manager said, after careful comparison, Gu Chen found that it was indeed exactly the same as Zhang Lai in front of him.

Walking to the bed, picking up the black mask casually, Gu Chen asked, "Do you still have the habit of wearing a mask?"

"Yes...sometimes." Zhang Lai also panicked at the moment, lowered his head and said weakly, not daring to look directly into Gu Chen's eyes.

"You should be right." Gu Chen put the mask next to the peaked cap, found a place to lean on there, and said lightly: "You should recruit, if we need to use the monitoring network resources, we will use your monitoring network resources these days. If you find out the trajectory of your actions, I'm afraid you will be even uglier."

Looking down at the black leather boots beside him, Gu Chen raised them with his right hand and looked at the pointed part of the sole.

As I imagined, there are obvious signs of wear on the tip of the sole.

Gu Chen took out his mobile phone and compared the shoe prints he took on the outer wall of the Oasis Hotel tonight, they were almost identical.

"It should be the right pair." Lu Weiwei also stood next to Gu Chen to confirm, and then said confidently: "If you guessed correctly, you should be wearing these shoes to commit crimes tonight."

"The texture of the toe cap is exactly the same as what we found at the scene, and the traces of wear and tear, plus the clothes you stepped on, just explain everything."

"You...you are talking nonsense." Zhang Lai was also panicked at the moment, and quickly stood up straight and retorted: "I didn't kill anyone, and I never went to the Oasis Hotel. You must have made a mistake."

Gu Chen smiled lightly, stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Lai's hands, and turned them up.

The deep scratches on Zhang Lai's hands were completely exposed in front of Gu Chen.

He shrank his hands in fright, quickly retracted them and said, "You...what are you doing?"

"What am I doing?" Gu Chen smiled lightly, and directly showed him the 18-second video shot by Lu Weiwei: "Just look at this and you'll know."
