I am a super cop

Chapter 732 Hypocrisy [Two in one, ask for a monthly ticket]

"Is this a group photo of your survey team?" Gu Chen picked up the group photo by the bed and asked.

Zhao Kai glanced at it, and said, "That's right, this is a photo of my group when I first joined the company. Some people are no longer there."

Drinking the wine in his hand, Zhao Kai suddenly felt a little sad: "Maybe some people will never see each other again after leaving. This year, I stayed here the longest. Most of them have changed careers. Persevere." Not many came down."

"It's like this." Putting down the photo in his hand, Gu Chen turned and looked outside the door.

At this moment, the rain has passed and the sky is clear, looking down at the time, Gu Chen said again: "It's almost time to go."

"In a hurry to leave so soon?" Zhao Kai stood up, trying to persuade Gu Chen to stay: "Comrade policeman, do you want to stop sitting around? Anyway, it's not in a hurry right now."

"No, thank you." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and then helped photographer Wu Jun pick up the equipment, ready to return.

Everyone said goodbye to Zhao Kai at the door of the mobile prefab room.

To be honest, seeing Zhao Kai leaning against the door with a wine bottle alone, everyone knew that staying in this environment would really break people down.

The 2G signal is still intermittent, let alone others.

However, Gu Chen also saw Zhao Kai's bedside with a few thick novels, which should be used to pass the boring time.

Seeing that we are coming to the foot of the mountain soon, we can give up hiking and get on the long-lost vehicle.

At this time, Gu Chen found a familiar figure walking quickly in his direction.

When he saw Gu Chen, the man was stunned, and then he nodded and greeted Gu Chen: "Comrade police."

"Eh? Aren't you Zhao Kai's colleague?" Lu Weiwei next to Gu Chen recognized the person who was the colleague who was in the room with Zhao Kai just now.

The man was the younger of the two colleagues.

The young man nodded slightly: "That's right, I forgot something and I want to go back and get it. What's the matter? You guys just leave? Don't you want to rest there for a while?"

"I still have to work." The photographer Wu Jun on the side smiled and said, "If I don't want to work, I'd like to stay here and camp. This place has beautiful mountains and rivers, and I think it's a good place to travel."

"Haha, then come here often. There are many mountain springs here, which are very sweet, and there is a natural fish pond not far from our residence. You can go fishing there if you have nothing to do."

Hearing the man's remarks, Gu Chen smiled diligently and said: "Then according to what you say, Zhao Kai won't be too boring over there."

"Uh, how should I put it?" The young man scratched the back of his head and said with a light smile: "Anyway, the food is delicious, the air is fresh, and except for the fact that you can't play with your mobile phone, it's pretty good. Otherwise, those villagers wouldn't The reason why I didn’t want to go down the mountain for so many years is because it is a treasure land of geomantic omen.”

"That's true, I wouldn't want to move if I had to." Officer Wang followed suit.

The young man nodded silently, and then said: "Then I'll go there first, my colleague is still waiting for me to bring something over."

"Okay, you go." Gu Chen nodded slightly.

After a few people teased each other a few words on the trail, they went their separate ways.

On the way back to the city, Police Officer Wang was driving, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha were playing with their mobile phones, while Gu Chen closed his eyes and rested his mind, killing the boring time.

Bai Xiaolan and cameraman Wu Jun separated from everyone at a fork in the road and headed towards Jiangnan TV Station.

Gu Chen's team will return to the Furong branch.

Seeing that Gu Chen in the co-pilot was silent, Police Officer Wang couldn't help but smiled and said, "Gu Chen, I really have you this time. I thought those villagers were difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect you to convince them with just a few words. It’s much more reliable than those who do things.”

"It's nothing." Gu Chen closed his eyes and rested his mind, and said with a light smile: "Actually, put down your posture and communicate with them well. Many things are not that complicated."

"It's just that the previous working group, relying on the documents on it, is a bit bullying. It feels like it's not here to communicate, but to issue an ultimatum directly."

"In this case, how can you communicate well with these residents who have lived here for generations?"

"That's right." Lu Weiwei interjected involuntarily: "I feel that there is no one in this group of people who is reliable in handling things. If it wasn't for you, Junior Brother Gu, to come out, I don't know when this matter will come to an end."

"So it is recognized that Senior Brother Gu is efficient in handling affairs. Otherwise, Miss Xiaolan would not always appoint Senior Brother Gu to follow. I feel that the more contacts with outstanding people, the efficiency of many things will be higher, and I will become more efficient. Even better, right Senior Brother Wang?" Yuan Shasha suddenly looked at Police Officer Wang.

Police officer Wang smiled and said while driving: "I read some chicken soup on the Internet saying that you must get in touch with those outstanding people so that you can make progress. This seems to make sense."

"But then I found out it wasn't, because the more I get in touch with excellent people, the more I feel like a waste."

"Ah?" Yuan Shasha froze for a moment, and asked weakly, "Senior Brother Wang, what are you saying?"

"It affects your mood, doesn't it?" Police Officer Wang glanced at Yuan Shasha behind him, and said involuntarily, "So, I still like to play with sand sculpture friends around me, and I still have a good time."

"So Lao Wang is also a sand sculpture." Lu Weiwei laughed.

If the three groups hadn't been led by Gu Chen, they might all have become salted fish with Lao Wang.

Now that Gu Chen is with him, at least everyone feels that they have a safe haven. Sand sculptures or not sand sculptures don't affect everyone's mood.

"I don't know if you have such a friend around you?" Police Officer Wang looked at everyone in the rearview mirror of the car, and said involuntarily, "It was when you first met him, he was gentle and polite."

"But after he gets acquainted with you, you will find out which mental institution he was released from."

"Some people say that a true friend is when you are together, even if you don't talk, you won't feel embarrassed."

"Well, but I don't think that's enough. I think a real friend is when you are together or when you go out together, you don't need to use your brains."

As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha turned their attention to Gu Chen.

"So, you're the one who doesn't need to go out with his brain?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Officer Wang chuckled: "With Gu Chen by my side, does it make any difference whether I bring my brain or not? The strongest brain is here, and it feels like our brains add up to a fraction of others."

"Senior Brother Wang is too flattering on me." Sitting on the co-pilot, Gu Chen closed his eyes and meditated, opened his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Everyone here is indispensable, I hope that when I am not around, you guys You can also take the lead.”

"This is Senior Brother Gu." Yuan Shasha in the back row couldn't help but flattering Gu Chen: "With Senior Brother Gu around, I feel safe."

"Although I don't give much help, but by Brother Gu's side, I will have a kind of confidence, that is, I am also indispensable, hehe."

"Haha, that's the truth." Lu Weiwei was also amused.

Everyone talked and laughed and returned to the urban area, and drove quickly towards the Furong sub-bureau.

However, when the vehicle entered a traffic light intersection, Gu Chen's cell phone suddenly rang.

Picking up the phone, it was He Junchao calling.

"What's wrong, Senior Brother He?" Gu Chen pressed the answer button and asked him.

"Gu Chen, are you on your way back?" He Junchao asked.

Gu Chen smiled lightly and said, "That's right, we're almost at the branch office."

"Then you may have to go back and forth." He Junchao said.

Gu Chen frowned slightly...

From the words in He Junchao's mouth, it seemed that something happened in the place he had been to, so he hurriedly asked again: "Senior Brother He, tell me what you have to say."

"Let me tell you this, there was a murder near the place you went to just now, and someone was killed. I think you should be nearby, and I want you to go over and find out about the situation."

"Where have we been? You mean the village on the top of the mountain?" Gu Chen asked.

"No, it's an exploration team station on the mountainside." He Junchao said.

Gu Chen's expression froze suddenly...

Exploration team station, isn't this where Zhao Kai lives?
She was fine when she left before, so why did a murder case suddenly appear?
Gu Chen's expression showed a little hesitation, so he hurriedly said to Police Officer Wang, "Senior Brother Wang, let's not go back to the Furong branch, and go directly to the station of the exploration team."

"Now?" Officer Wang asked.

"Yes, it's now." Gu Chen said.

"Okay!" Police officer Wang didn't hesitate, and turned on the siren directly. At the red light, after confirming that it did not affect the surrounding vehicles, he turned around decisively and drove directly in the direction he came from.

When the police car came to the foot of the mountain, the middle-aged merchant who rented mules for everyone came out quickly and asked, "Comrade police, are you going to the survey team?"

"You also know?" Gu Chen asked him.

"Isn't that right? I heard that there was an accident with the exploration team. I guess you have to come back not long after you left."

"What's going on there?" Gu Chen asked.

The peddler scratched the back of his head and said involuntarily, "I heard from the prospecting team member up the mountain that something happened to my colleague. I don't know the details. Anyway, I feel that the matter is a bit serious."

"Thank you." Gu Chen knew that he couldn't get much information from the mule renter, so he took everyone and hurried up the mountain.

Different from the first time that we took the shooting equipment up the mountain, this time everyone went into the battle lightly, carrying only a few toolboxes and traveling lightly.

Arriving at the mountainside before, Gu Chen discovered from a long distance that some villagers were already watching near the mobile prefabricated house of the exploration team.

Gu Chen didn't care too much, and ran over directly.

At this moment, the middle-aged man from the exploration team who had left before was leaning against the door of the mobile prefab house with a rather depressed expression on his face.

"Give way." Gu Chen squeezed through the crowd and came to the man: "Why are you back again?"

"Police...Comrade police?" After realizing that the person who came was a policeman, the middle-aged man stood up straight and hurriedly greeted Gu Chen.

"What's your situation?" Lu Weiwei asked beside him.

"Two of my colleagues... just... the colleague who left with me before died, and was crushed to death by another colleague."

Speaking of this, the eyes of the middle-aged man are also full of disbelief.

Gu Chen couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "You mean...you two colleagues killed each other?"

"For details, ask Zhao Kai." The middle-aged man glanced at the room behind him.

Without hesitation, Gu Chen led everyone into the house.

At this moment, a man with blood on his head was lying in the house. Gu Chen recognized him. He was the prospecting team member that Gu Chen met at the intersection when Gu Chen went down the mountain.

But at this moment, Zhao Kai was sitting on the ground, looking at everyone blankly, as if waiting for everyone's final verdict.

Gu Chen put on white gloves, and hurried forward to examine the corpse.

After completing several operations, Gu Chen finally confirmed that the man had no signs of life.

And judging from the broken skull, it was obvious that he died on the spot as a result of a heavy blow, and the blood almost stained the entire ground.

But Gu Chen found that the bloodstains stretched all the way to the outside of the door, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked Zhao Kai: "Didn't you kill your colleague inside the house?"

"I..." Zhao Kai just wanted to speak, but he hesitated.

"I asked you, and you just answered, did you kill your colleague outside?" Gu Chen asked again.

"Comrade police, I... I was wronged. I didn't want to kill him. He wanted to kill me first. I... I just counterattacked passively. I was acting in self-defense."

Zhao Kai suddenly woke up from the sluggish state just now, and his whole body began to look excited.

"Justifiable defense?" Lu Weiwei on the side hesitated for a moment, pointed to the corpse on the ground and said, "Aren't you colleagues with him? Where did such a big hatred come from? You smashed people like this? Are you still in self-defense?"

"I...I." Zhao Kai was too nervous to speak.

"Talk slowly, and clarify the matter between you two." Officer Wang also reminded, feeling that the current Zhao Kai is completely out of shape.

"I..." Zhao Kai calmed down, and then said: "After you guys left, I was bored by myself, so I went fishing by the pond, but when I was staring at the buoy on the water, I heard something from my colleague. Wang Ke's call."

"I just found out that he came to ask me for the keys, saying that he had left something in the mobile home."

"Wait a minute." Gu Chen interrupted Zhao Kai suddenly, and asked, "Did you call in advance to inform you about your colleague Wang Ke's return?"

"No...no, he didn't make a phone call, he just appeared on the hillside suddenly, and I also felt very sudden."

"After all, he has already left the station and turned back suddenly. I feel that this guy is going to make something new."

"What's going on?" Listening to Zhao Kai's words, Gu Chen seemed to be able to hear that the relationship between the two of them was not as friendly as that of colleagues.

On the contrary, from Zhao Kai's tone, Gu Chen felt that the two were not dealing with each other.

The middle-aged surveyor at the door walked into the house, and then explained to Gu Chen: "Comrade policeman, in fact, the two of them have not been on good terms."

"If it wasn't for me being stationed here, these two people would have fought long ago, just to save me."

"The reason why I transferred this time and took Wang Ke away is because the two of them can't get along together at all. If I don't take Wang Ke away, I have to take Zhao Kai away. They have to go anyway. A person."

"How did this happen?" Police Officer Wang also became more and more confused the more he listened, feeling that everyone didn't see any clues just now, but how do you feel now that there are so many barriers between these people's work?

"Maybe you don't believe it." The middle-aged prospector glanced at Wang Ke's body on the ground, and said helplessly, "Anyway, Wang Ke is dead, so I'll just say something straight."

"Actually, I don't like Wang Ke very much. He likes to intrigue and is a relative of the leader. He is usually domineering in the unit, and he is extremely disrespectful to the old master."

"Originally during the Chinese New Year period this year, it happened to be Wang Ke's turn to be on duty, but this guy transferred the shift to Zhao Kai because of his relatives, and asked Zhao Kai to help him on duty."

"Furthermore, in terms of the regularization quota, it should have been reserved for Zhao Kai, who is outstanding in all aspects of his work, but this guy's relative is a leader, and the final regularization quota also fell on Wang Ke, who usually does not work hard. .”

"So?" Gu Chen asked.

"So... so the enmity between the two of them was forged in this way." The middle-aged prospector let out a long breath, and said helplessly: "I thought this matter would just pass away, after all, Zhao Kai was born to be very honest. "

"But honest people are used to being bullied, and there are times when they explode, so not long ago, Zhao Kai reported Wang Ke and his relatives and leaders with their real names, so Wang Ke was sent here to do exploration, and his relatives, too. Because of this abuse of power, I was held accountable by the higher authorities.”

Looking at Zhao Kai, who was trembling and staring blankly, the middle-aged prospector said in a protective voice, "But after all, Zhao Kai is about to leave the job, and the higher-ups couldn't save face, so they had to send the two of them here together."

"Only by completing the work here, Zhao Kai can theoretically not have to pay liquidated damages, so Zhao Kai agreed."

"It's just that I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I had already left with Wang Ke, but Wang Ke turned back halfway. If I had thought of such a thing, I would definitely not let him go back alone."

"This Wang Ke, we met on the road before, and he was the only one going back." Gu Chen said.

The middle-aged prospector nodded silently: "That's right, I just thought it was troublesome at the time. After all, I have already gone down the mountain, and I still have so much luggage in my hand. You said that if you go back with him to get the missing things, how tiring it will be." ?”

"So I stayed at the bottom of the mountain to look at the luggage, and asked Wang Ke to go up the mountain to get the missing things, but I just didn't expect such a thing to happen. Alas, I was too careless."

After listening to the middle-aged prospector's narration, Gu Chen probably knew what was going on.

Co-authored Wang Ke who met up the mountain at that time, just to find Zhao Kai to commit murder?

After all, Zhao Kai was the only one in the station at that time.

But Gu Chen didn't understand that even if there was a personal grievance, and Zhao Kai was about to leave the job, everyone might not see each other again in the future.

But under such circumstances, why did Wang Ke take the risk?
If it was me, I would definitely not do this. Obviously Wang Ke made a very wrong decision at the time.

Glancing at Zhao Kai behind him, Gu Chen asked him, "So, when you found him by the fish pond, you two started fighting?"

"No." Zhao Kai shook his head and said, "When I saw this guy, I was puzzled."

"After all, this guy didn't have a good relationship with me. He had already gone down the mountain and was about to return to the company by car, but he came back at this time. I felt that things were not so simple. I thought he should come back to take revenge on me. Solve the problem of personal enmity."

"So? How did he do it?" Yuan Shasha asked.

Zhao Kai said dejectedly: "I thought he was going to trouble me, but he didn't. He seems to be more polite than before."

"I asked him by the fish pond why he came back again. He said he had forgotten something important and asked me to give him the key."

"So you gave it?" Gu Chen asked.

Zhao Kai nodded silently: "Of course, after all, he came to get things, so I simply went back to the mobile home with him and opened the door for him with the key."

"And indeed, he did drop something. He found a string of pendants in the gap under the bed."

"I know the pendant. I heard it was given to him by his girlfriend, so it is very precious."

"I didn't say anything at the time, and told him to leave quickly with his things. In fact, I didn't want to see this person. I feel that this should be the last time we meet."

"But this time, Wang Ke changed his normal behavior and began to apologize to me. This makes me very incomprehensible."

Glancing at Gu Chen in front of him, Zhao Kai said again: "I know what kind of virtue he is, but suddenly he apologized to me, and I felt a little tricky."

"But after all, we worked together in this mountain forest for a long time before, and I actually didn't hate him a long time ago, and he and his relatives were also punished as they should be. We are settled."

Gu Chen shook his head when he heard the words: "But since the grievances between you two are settled, how could he, Wang Ke, die in your hands?"

"This..." Zhao Kai sobbed a bit, and said lightly, "Actually, I trusted others too much, thinking that this guy turned his back on his evil ways and really came to reconcile with me."

"So I wasn't prepared and told him to leave quickly with his things. After all, Brother Zhong was still waiting for him."

Zhao Kai said this, and glanced at the middle-aged prospector at the door.

"Then he didn't leave?" Gu Chen asked.

Zhao Kai nodded: "Yes, he said that Brother Zhong was talking to his friends over there. There was no rush, and there was still time, so he followed me to the pond."

"After all, I was fishing here before, and he disturbed me, so when I returned to the place where I was fishing before, he apologized to me and said that he wanted to talk to me. He felt that he was also depressed in the company. Envy me for quitting."

After glancing at everyone, Zhao Kai said again: "But his envy is right. Without the backing of his relatives, he can do whatever he wants. He feels like a burden."

"If it wasn't for Brother Zhong who was willing to take him along with his salary, this guy might have been fired a long time ago."

"So when I was fishing, I kind of sympathized with this guy. I felt that he had changed, learned to admit his mistakes, and turned his enemies into friendships. But in fact, the wrong person was me. I almost fell into his trick."
