Chapter 2012

,!

Following Gu Chen's reasoning based on the master's imagination, Gu Chen has more and more reasons to believe that there is some close connection between Wang Xinyu and Zhao Xiaohu.

If we say that Zhao Xiaohu's sudden disappearance was due to some accidents.

But judging from the body excavated from the No. 2 warehouse, this is not Zhao Xiaohu himself at all.

So this involves another body.

The victim has yet to be identified.

In other words, only by finding Wang Xinyu, who sent the blood letter to the police, can the identity of the deceased be finally known.

But Wang Xinyu hid herself, obviously not wanting to be discovered by the police, but she had no choice but to send the blood book.

This kind of ambivalence also reflects that Wang Xinyu actually hides some important secrets in her heart.

...

...

In the early morning of the next day, when Lu Weiwei woke up, there was no trace of Gu Chen.

The ones sleeping in the waiting area included forensic doctor Gao Chuanfeng in addition to his colleagues, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha.

Lu Weiwei rubbed her eyes sleepily, then stood up and stretched herself beautifully.

At this moment, Gu Chen was carrying a big bag of breakfast, and came in from the door. Seeing Lu Weiwei in the room doing morning exercises with the energy of getting up, Gu Chen subconsciously said hello: "Senior Sister Lu, are you awake?"

"Junior Brother Gu, you got up so early?" Lu Weiwei looked at the time, and it was only 6:30 in the morning.

Gu Chen put the breakfast away, and also reminded: "Wang Xinyu hasn't been found yet, so I dare not slack off."

"In addition, there is a large population flow in the early morning. We can take advantage of this, go to the neighborhood of the village in the city early, and ask the surrounding people to see who has seen Wang Xinyu."

"That's right." After thinking about it, it was the same reason, so Lu Weiwei opened the bag, picked out a box of milk and a few siu mai at random, then walked to Police Officer Wang, and kicked the folding bed:

"Old Wang, get up."

"Ah?" Officer Wang was startled, and quickly sat up.

Seeing that Lu Weiwei was having breakfast, Police Officer Wang yawned and said weakly, "What time is it? It looks like I haven't had enough sleep yet."

"It's already 6:30 in the morning." Lu Weiwei said.

Officer Wang wanted to cry but said without tears: "Well, I went to bed very late last night, and now I wake up so early, I feel that I am really incomparable to you young people."

"Just tossing like this, I don't know how much wolfberry tea I drink to make up for it."

Standing up, Officer Wang walked to the coffee table familiarly, and directly chose breakfast.

Then Yuan Shasha was woken up, and when Lu Weiwei was about to call Gao Chuanfeng, she was stopped by Gu Chen:

"Senior Sister Lu, Gao Chuanfeng should let him sleep a little longer. He went to bed very late last night."

"Okay, listen to Junior Brother Gu." Seeing that Gu Chen had said so, Lu Weiwei no longer cared about Gao Chuanfeng.

After everyone divided the breakfast equally, they left some for Gao Chuanfeng on the table.

After that, everyone walked out of the city bureau and came to the neighborhood of the urban village next door.

At this moment, everyone discovered that the alley outside the village in the city had become a mobile vegetable market in the early morning.

Many small merchants and hawkers, pushing tricycles, have already arranged the vegetables neatly.

There is an entire alley with no end in sight.

But just at 6:30 in the morning, there is an endless stream of residents who come to buy vegetables.

Coming here for the first time, Gu Chen looked a bit unfamiliar, so he said to everyone: "Let's start here first, ask these vendors who sell vegetables and the residents who buy vegetables, and see if anyone has seen Wang Xinyu .”

"Yes." Police officer Wang nodded silently, and then said: "It's best for everyone to look for them separately, so the speed will be faster."

"Okay, listen to your old king." Lu Weiwei said that there is no problem.

Yuan Shasha also said indifferently: "It's best to find Wang Xinyu quickly."

Everyone gathered together at the scene, and then began to divide into four groups.

Holding her mobile phone, Gu Chen walked into the grocery shopping crowd and began to inquire about Wang Xinyu's whereabouts.

However, after asking all the way, everyone seemed to have never met Wang Xinyu, which made Gu Chen curious.

Logically speaking, if Wang Xinyu rented here, he would definitely come out to buy ingredients.

As for the vegetable vendors here, it is reasonable to say that the customers they come into contact with every day are very fixed, so they should be very familiar with the appearance of the customers.

Especially for foreigners, the speaking accent is also different from the local ones, so they are highly recognizable.

But even so, no one knew Wang Xinyu, which made Gu Chen puzzled.

"Maybe it's because you just came here to rent a place, and you haven't bought food here before?"

Gu Chen thought to himself, and found an old man sitting under the fence, playing with his mobile phone at the moment.

Different from the shouting crowd around, the old man sells fish, but he doesn’t drink it, as if he wanted it or not.

This instead made Gu Chen interested, so he went straight to the old man.

But the old man seems to be still immersed in his mobile phone world, and doesn't care about Gu Chen at all.

Gu Chen smiled and called out to the uncle.

The uncle immediately raised his head, pointed at the big and small fish in front of him, and said, "Young man, just take a look. I caught these myself, but they are fresh."

"You catch so many fish by yourself?" Gu Chen also put on a curious gesture.

After all, the big and small fish in the foam box in front of them do look alive and kicking.

The fish sellers around are supplying oxygen to the fish, but the old man is indifferent.

But judging from the freshness of the fish, Gu Chen just came from another fishmonger, and it is not difficult to find that the old man's fish is obviously much fresher.

"Did you just catch this fish?" Gu Chen asked casually.

Seeing Gu Chen's knowledgeable look, the old man immediately put down his phone and grinned, "I usually go fishing at two or three o'clock in the morning, and then bring the fish I catch early in the morning to sell here, of course they are very fresh .”

When the voice fell, it may be that it was useless to talk too much. The old man reached out and grabbed a fish, held it in front of Gu Chen and said:

"See? I don't need oxygen, and I'm alive and kicking now. I never lie when I do business."

"I believe in your uncle." I felt like I was just chatting casually with the uncle, but I didn't expect that the uncle really regarded himself as a customer.

So Gu Chen quickly took out his mobile phone, clicked on the photo album, lit it up in front of the uncle and said, "Master, I'm asking you for someone, have you seen this woman?"

It was also when Gu Chen was wearing a police uniform, and now he was asking himself about someone's whereabouts.

So the uncle put down the fish in his hand, came over to have a look, and asked silently:

"Who is this man?"

"A suspect, we are looking for her, got off here the night before yesterday."

Gu Chen looked around, then hurriedly said, "Oh, by the way, the place to get off may be near your booth."

"Oh, is that so?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, the uncle immediately became serious.

He was also afraid that the hand he was catching fish would smell fishy, ​​so the uncle could only stick up his buttocks and stretch his neck.

Also after maintaining this funny posture for a while, the uncle suddenly turned his head to meditate.

"How? Have you seen her?" Seeing the complex expression on the uncle's face, Gu Chen hurriedly asked.

"Where have I seen this woman before?" After a pause for a few seconds, the uncle suddenly looked at Gu Chen, and suddenly realized:

"By the way, I saw her this morning."

"Have you really met her?" Seeing that the fish seller had met Wang Xinyu, Gu Chen was also overjoyed, and hurriedly asked:

"Then where did you meet her? This is very important to us."

"It's right where I'm fishing," said the uncle.

"Where do you fish?" Gu Chen was a little puzzled, so he asked again: "Excuse me, where do you usually fish?"

"Just under the nearby Rainbow Bridge, isn't there a reservoir dam over there? I usually fish under the reservoir dam."

"And that woman, I remember, seems to be somewhat similar to the one in your photo."

"She seems to live under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge, and there is a simple tent over there."

"Simple tent? Under the pier?" Hearing these two key words, Gu Chen suddenly became hesitant again.

You know, the Wang Xinyu in my impression should be renting a house in a nearby village in the city.

But now in the mouth of the old man, he has become a homeless person living under the bridge pier, which is somewhat of a contrast.

The key is the tent.

However, Gu Chen had conducted a detailed investigation into Zhang Jun's interrogation process. At that time, Wang Xinyu only had a small amount of luggage.

So where did the tent come from? Gu Chen expressed doubts, so he confirmed to the old man:

"Master, you said that this woman lives under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge, and there is a tent. What's the situation with the tent?"

"Ham, it was built temporarily with a canopy board and a few wooden brackets."

"To put it simply, this isn't a tent, it's a shelter from the wind and rain."

"Anyway, I have seen people living under bridge piers before, but they are usually fishing enthusiasts, and they are temporary resting places for fishing at night."

"But later I don't know whether it was discovered by the urban management, or who discovered this place and demolished it."

"But I have been fishing here for a long time, and it was also from the night before yesterday..."

After thinking about it, the uncle immediately changed his mind and said, "Oh no, to be precise, it should be last night. Last night, when I came back from fishing, I passed under the bridge pier."

"I just discovered that there was a simple tent in this place? So I took a second look, and I was going to go over to find out."

"I thought it might be some fishing friend resting here, but at first glance, it seemed that there was a woman living in the tent, so I didn't dare to approach, so I turned and left."

"Then what happened later?" Seeing the situation explained by the uncle, it seemed to be somewhat similar to the Wang Xinyu I was looking for.

So Gu Chen continued to urge.

The uncle said thoughtfully, "Then today, tonight, around three or four o'clock in the morning, I usually go out fishing during this time."

"When I came under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge, I found that the tent was still here. I felt very strange at the time. I felt that this woman was going to live here for a long time or something?"

"After all, there is something wrong with just a woman popping up for no reason and living here for two consecutive days."

"Then have you communicated with her?" Gu Chen was also eager to know this, so he asked.

The uncle shook his head: "I usually don't communicate with strangers I don't know."

"Besides, moving under the bridge pier and setting up a tent to live in is not a resting fishing friend, which makes me very puzzled."

"I feel that this woman may have a mental problem, or she ran away from home."

"But what kind of situation is it? I can't say, and I don't want to meddle in my own business."

"So, instead of going to the corner of the pier every time, I rode my electric tricycle along the riverside path, and pulled the fish I caught here to sell."

Also got the clue from the uncle, Gu Chen suddenly felt that it seems that it is not difficult to find Wang Xinyu.

Since Gu Chen seldom passed by here, but he knew very well that the Rainbow Bridge is not too far from here, so he asked the uncle:

"Master, can we go under the Rainbow Bridge from here?"

"Yes." The uncle bowed down, turned his head and pointed to the end of the path:

"You go down here, go to the end of the path, then turn left again, go to the first fork, and then go down a path on the right."

"Then, along this path, you can come to the river, and then walk along the river, you can go under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge."

"There, maybe you can find that woman."

"Thank you, sir." After receiving important information, Gu Chen was immediately overjoyed.

Standing up, Gu Chen looked towards the end of the path, only to realize that from this path, one can pass through the city bureau and the next-door urban village to reach the road by the river.

In this way, it seems to be very consistent with what Zhang Jun explained.

The woman that the uncle saw suddenly appeared under the pier the night before yesterday.

It was also the night before that Zhang Jun sent Wang Xinyu to the road next to the City Bureau.

If Wang Xinyu didn't go to the room she rented that night, or if she, Wang Xinyu, didn't rent a room nearby at all.

So it seemed like a good choice to cross this path that night, go to the river, and hide under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge.

After tossing himself back and forth, Gu Chen could guess with his toes that he ended up living in this kind of place. Wang Xinyu seemed to have encountered difficulties and dared not rent a house.

That's why they chose to camp in the open air. In this way, there is an advantage, that is, the police cannot find out where Wang Xinyu is renting through her ID card.

The reason is very simple, but Fan Wang Xinyu rents a house in the neighborhood next door.

Not to mention the neighborhood next door, any regular rental house in Jiangnan City needs to provide an ID card, which is convenient for the police to manage the floating population.

But Wang Xinyu is very smart, she chose to live under the pier, so it is very difficult for the police to find out her residence.

But Gu Chen has already found out where Wang Xinyu got off from Zhang Jun's dictation.

Fortunately, Wang Xinyu's residence was found in the mouth of this fisherman.

So Gu Chen immediately summoned Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha to go under the pier of the Rainbow Bridge to find out, to see if Wang Xinyu was really just living with a cat under the pier as the fish seller said.
