"Being... a substitute for Zhou Tian?"

When asked suddenly by Gu Chen, Fang Zhijun was obviously not mentally prepared.

Gu Chen didn't beat around the bush and said straightforwardly: "You posted Zhou Tian's mobile Moments updates for him, right?"

"No...no, comrade police, what exactly do you want to ask?"

Feeling a little confused, Fang Zhijun was a little confused.

Lu Weiwei said with a faint smile: "You and Zhou Tian's grades are exactly the same, so have you met Zhou Tian?"

"Zhou Tian? Who is Zhou Tian?" Fang Zhijun looked confused and shook his head: "I really don't know who this Zhou Tian is?"

"You don't know?" Officer Wang grinned: "You don't know who Zhou Tian is, but Zhou Tian's game check-in results are exactly the same as yours. There is not much difference between them. Have you never seen him?"

When asked by Officer Wang, Fang Zhijun lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said: "Is that the person you are talking about? I think I have seen him before. He checked in behind me during the game and even chatted with me for a few words."

"What did he talk to you about?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Fang Zhijun lowered his head in thought and quickly said: "It seemed that he was talking to me about some competitions. He told me that he had participated in hiking and outdoor cross-country competitions in many places, and his results were above average."

"Is that all?" Gu Chen recorded it and asked again.

Fang Zhijun thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, he told me this, because we met when we were almost at the finish line, so we chatted for a while."

"Then you saw him clock in and sign in with your own eyes, right?" Gu Chen continued to ask him.

Fang Zhijun still nodded: "Yes, he is right behind me."

"But Zhou Tian does not exist, and we have not seen Zhou Tian appear at the scene." Lu Weiwei explained clearly and simply.

But Fang Zhijun quickly defended himself: "Then I don't know. After all, Zhou Tian and I only met once during the game. You suddenly caught me here and said that I was running for Zhou Tian. I simply

You will die unjustly."

"You are not unjust." Gu Chen took out his phone, took some surveillance screenshots that He Junchao sent to him, stood up and came to him:

"Fang Zhijun, you said you only had contact with Zhou Tian during the game, but from the surveillance footage in the past few days, we can see that you actually had contact with Zhou Tian several times, and even had dinner together."

"This is contradictory to what you just said. How long do you want to make it up?"

Seeing that Gu Chen suddenly took out the surveillance screenshot as evidence, Fang Zhijun suddenly panicked.

After his eyes wandered from side to side, he smiled bitterly at Gu Chen and said, "Comrade police, there are too many contestants in this competition. I occasionally come into contact with a few contestants. This doesn't mean anything, right?"

"I just think he is a local in Jiangnan City, so I need to know some things from him, so I only talked with him a few times."

After saying this, Fang Zhijun raised his hand and swore: "But I swear, I really don't remember his name? We just talked."

"But then I met him again in the race, and I didn't seem to have much of an impression, because I didn't meet him again until the finish line."

"But at this time, maybe I was too tired, so I didn't recognize that this person was Zhou Tian, ​​who I had chatted with before."

"Your reason is very good." Gu Chen nodded silently, showing his appreciation.

But then, Gu Chen directly took out another picture and said: "This is the information picture just sent by the Haidong City Police."

"It can be seen from these pictures that you not only know Zhou Tian, ​​but also have had many contacts with Zhou Tian. These are surveillance screenshots provided by Haidong City Police."

Seeing Gu Chen conjuring evidence again, Fang Zhijun's face suddenly froze and he was a little at a loss.

Lu Weiwei said angrily: "You said that you obviously know Zhou Tian, ​​but you insist on saying that you don't know him."

"From this point of view, you have been lying to us from beginning to end. Not only did you know Zhou Tian, ​​but you also ran to the finish line on Zhou Tian's behalf and helped him complete all the check-ins."

"And the updates Zhou Tian posted on Moments during the game were actually your work. Your purpose is to tell everyone that Zhou Tian actually completed all the games, but he didn't."

"You...what evidence do you have to prove that Zhou Tian's Moments updates were posted by me?"

Seeing that the situation was not good for him, Fang Zhijun began to defend himself in various ways.

Officer Wang said: "Although it cannot be confirmed for the time being, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhou Tian's habit of sending messages to WeChat Moments is not this style at all."

"Although the photos and copywriting taken during the game are good, in fact, it is just a fake show that Zhou Tian was playing in the game."

"He is a person who shares great truth links and health links all day long. How can he send such counter-style things?"

"That doesn't mean it's not happening at all, right?" It feels like the police just subjectively believe that this is not in line with Zhou Tian's style, but there is no reliable evidence.

Fang Zhijun felt that he could still give it another try.

"Then you've known Zhou Tian for a long time, so what do you say about this?" It seemed that Fang Zhijun was a bit stubborn and was not afraid of boiling water, so Lu Weiwei also got straight to the point.

After Fang Zhijun thought for a moment, he also said seriously: "Yes, I admit that I knew him before, but so what? What if I don't know him? Just because of this, you think I am guilty?"

"So what if Zhou Tian and you checked in at the same time in the game? It can be said that you and Zhou Tian were together during the game, but we found no trace of Zhou Tian at the scene."

"No trace was found. It doesn't mean that Zhou Tian was not at the scene. Maybe you just didn't find it, right?"

Fang Zhijun already knows very well that everything seems to be very beneficial to him now.

As long as I insist on it, I will indeed complete the game with Zhou Tian.

If the police can't find Zhou Tian, ​​they can't cure themselves just by lying about it.

It is precisely because Fang Zhijun has considerable self-confidence that he shows an even more arrogant attitude than before.

Lu Weiwei leaned into Gu Chen's ear and whispered: "Junior Brother Gu, what should we do now?"

"This guy is obviously lying." Gu Chen said.

Lu Weiwei frowned slightly: "But we currently have no conclusive evidence, so there is nothing we can do against him. It seems a little premature to call him over to record a confession?"

"No." Gu Chen shook his head and said involuntarily: "I just want to get in touch with him so that I can understand him more comprehensively."

"From the current point of view, at least I can confirm that Zhou Tian's disappearance is definitely related to him, but in the future, we may have to trouble the organizers of the event."

"Why?" Lu Weiwei was a little confused.

However, Gu Chen took out his mobile phone at this moment and showed the screenshot of the surveillance video just sent by He Junchao in front of Lu Weiwei.

The screenshot is an image from inside the bus. It can be seen that Zhou Tian did not drive to the scene by himself, but squeezed into the bus with other players.

What surprised Lu Weiwei even more was that Fang Zhijun was sitting right behind Zhou Tian, ​​inseparable.

After temporarily detaining Fang Zhijun in the police station, Gu Chen and everyone returned to the Criminal Investigation Team Three.

At this moment, clues began to become clear.

Gu Chen also came to the whiteboard, pasted the screenshots of Zhou Tian's surveillance photos on the whiteboard with colored magnets, and introduced them to everyone:

"It can be seen from the picture that Zhou Tian actually participated in today's cross-country hiking competition, but it is still difficult to make a conclusion as to whether he reached the finish line safely."

"But what is certain is that there is no need to fear our police investigation on Sunday."

"If Zhou Tian chooses to abscond, that would further confirm his intention to murder Zhang Wen."

"But based on what I know about Zhou Tian, ​​he will not be so stupid. Cooperating with our police investigation is definitely a matter of benefit to him."

"That's right." After hearing Gu Chen's words, Officer Wang also stood up from his seat and said, "You are not stupid this week. There is no need to hide and seek with our police."

“But it’s true that Zhou Tian participated in today’s cross-country hiking race, but there was no sign of Zhou Tian at the finish line.”

"And it can be seen from Fang Zhijun's face that he is also full of lies. Although he denies that he posted the Zhoutian Moments post, I am 100% sure that this is what Fang Zhijun did, although I can't prove it yet.

Smoking gun evidence.”

"That's right." Seeing that Officer Wang said a lot, Gu Chen also expressed his position: "Actually, everyone knows it in their hearts, we know it, and Fang Zhijun knows it even better. Zhou Tian will not send this style of Moments updates."

"But after all, this doesn't mean anything, and it's precisely because of this that Fang Zhijun is confident."

"As long as we don't find Zhou Tian for a day, Fang Zhijun can continue to act like this."

"Then what should we do?" Ji Zhe asked.

Gu Chen glanced around and said: "At present, Zhou Tian is likely to encounter something unexpected, and the location is in the competition jungle."

"Why was Fang Zhijun able to check in at the same time as Zhou Tian? It was because he took away Zhou Tian's chip bracelet and pretended to be Zhou Tian to continue the game."

"Oh my god, aren't we going to search the mountain?" Wu Xiaofeng's eyes were stunned, feeling that this was a big project.

It's not like looking for someone in a city. There are surveillance and assistance everywhere.

You know, the venues for these outdoor cross-country hiking events are overgrown with weeds.

Moreover, it is spread over a wide area, and it would take even these experienced travel enthusiasts several hours to cross it.

This is just a time travel with the mentality of participating in a competition.

But for ordinary people, non-experienced travel enthusiasts, searching for missing persons in these places is slow and inefficient.

Therefore, Wu Xiaofeng's consternation is justified. After all, during the search process, if a police officer gets lost and disappears, wouldn't it be necessary to mobilize resources to find him?

It gives you a headache just thinking about it, doesn’t it?

Although Wu Xiaofeng didn't say anything, Gu Chen was also very aware of the seriousness of the task, so he explained to everyone: "Of course we are going to participate in the search for Zhou Tian."

"However, our strength alone is not enough. We also need the cooperation of players who have participated in this cross-country hiking competition."

"Junior Brother Gu, do you want these players to participate in the search?" Lu Weiwei looked curious.

You know, this is also a big project.

But Gu Chen was resolute: "Zhang Wen is already dead. If Zhou Tian can't find him, many investigation clues will be lost."
