2407,Who is lying?(1/3)
Of course, Gu Chen didn't know what kind of relationship the noodle shop owner had with his lover. So much so that the noodle shop owner's wife avoided her husband when discussing matters with outsiders.
To Gu Chen, this was indeed a bit unbelievable.
But are these situations just nonsense by the noodle shop owner? At present, Gu Chen is not sure.
But Gu Chen could tell that the noodle shop owner seemed to have low self-esteem.
In other words, he seems to be more honest, which is indeed a bit different from the eloquent boss lady.
But the two were husband and wife, and Gu Chen couldn't put their relationship aside, so he asked again:
"You said you belong to an outsider? What do you mean? You two are husband and wife."
"Yes." Faced with Gu Chen's doubts, the noodle shop owner nodded silently and couldn't help but say:
"We are husband and wife, but my wife usually makes the decision at home, and everything is handled by her."
"So even the cleaning work after closing is left to you?" Lu Weiwei had known this for a long time, so she mentioned it casually.
But this mention made the noodle shop owner lower his head, seeming extremely humble.
Officer Wang couldn't stand it any longer, so he said "tsk" and asked hurriedly:
"Brother, what is going on here? Why don't you two husband and wife look like a family?"
"We were not a family before." Facing Officer Wang's questioning, the noodle shop owner raised his head and said slowly:
"We are getting married for the second time, and this store used to belong to her family."
"It's not that you wait a moment." Yuan Shasha also looked confused when she heard this, and quickly said:
"If we co-operate this store of yours, we still want to split it up with each other?"
"Yes." I felt like I didn't know how to say it. The noodle shop owner looked up at everyone and said slowly:
"I don't have much ability. My previous wife ran away with someone, and I came to this city alone and destitute."
"At that time, she took me in and asked me to be a clerk in the store."
"At that time, the store was several times larger than it is now, and there were several employees."
"But later on, I slowly learned to make noodles. One day after cleaning, I just wanted to practice my craft."
"But that night, I accidentally burned down the store."
At this point, the noodle shop owner seemed to have a regretful look on his face.
Lu Weiwei, on the other hand, was stunned and quickly asked: "You said you burned down the store?"
"Yeah." The noodle shop owner nodded silently and said involuntarily:
"At that time, I just wanted to learn more skills, but I didn't expect that I accidentally burned down her noodle shop."
With a heavy sigh, the noodle shop owner lowered his head and said with deep self-reproach:
"Anyway, I shouldn't be careless."
"That night, the entire noodle shop was burned down. It could no longer operate, and all the employees were gone."
"And I also need to bear a lot of responsibility for the fire caused by my mistake. I know what this noodle shop means?"
"It was something she and her ex-husband worked hard for. Later, her ex-husband had another woman and they divorced. It was she who won over the noodle shop."
With a faint sigh, the noodle shop owner continued: "It can be said that this noodle shop is everything to her, but it was completely ruined by my carelessness. I even feel that she will not let me go."
"So?" Officer Wang raised his eyebrows and even began to sympathize with this man.
But the noodle shop owner shook his head and said helplessly: "But I thought wrong. Not only did she not blame me, she even took the initiative to invite me to a restaurant for dinner and a heart-to-heart talk."
"She said that she and her ex-husband worked together to build that restaurant. Now that it's burned down, it's gone. It can be regarded as the end of the relationship between her and her ex-husband."
"She said that if I want, I can open another restaurant with her. If I like making noodles, then I will be responsible for the future work of the chef."
"So...so, you two are together?" Lu Weiwei heard the clues.
The noodle shop owner nodded fiercely: "Yes, we two have the same experience, and she does not hold me responsible for the fire, and is even willing to live with me."
"I thanked her, and finally, I got married to her. After that, she used her only savings to open this noodle shop opposite this elementary school."
"From then on, I always did the most things with guilt and never complained."
"Because I know that I owe her all this."
"Ahem." Listening to what the noodle shop owner said, Officer Wang couldn't help but cough twice and said in a bad mood:
"So, do you and this boss lady have this kind of experience?"
Shaking his head, Officer Wang also sighed and said: "So, you don't want to ask about anything about your wife? Or, are you feeling guilty and don't want to ask?"
"They are all there." The noodle shop owner crossed his fingers and said nervously:
"She is very good to me, and I also know that I am useless. Therefore, I am fully responsible for everything in the store and try to let her do as little as possible."
"Her store was so big before, but now she can only open this small noodle shop with me. I feel very sorry for her."
"So, I don't ask about anything about her, and I don't want to ask about it."
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the noodle shop owner said helplessly: "So, comrade police, I really don't know about the situations you mentioned, and I don't want to take care of them."
"Maybe they have their own affairs and it's not convenient for them to tell me, and I don't want to ask. I just want to do my own thing well every day, that's all."
The noodle shop owner didn't look like he was being questioned by the police at all. Instead, he seemed to be complaining to the police.
Of course, Gu Chen also knew his difficulties and felt that he was a man with extremely low self-esteem.
It seems that I have always been dealing with my current wife with guilt, and I work hard without any complaints.

"You also said that there are many differences and contradictions between the two of them, but you can't explain why?"
"Yes, I can't say why? I don't want to ask about this." Faced with Gu Chen's doubts, the noodle shop owner shook his head and said righteously:
"I'm just an ordinary citizen. I don't want to worry about too many things. If I can make good noodles, I'll be satisfied."
"Okay." It felt like the noodle shop owner's idea was indeed simple.
But even so, the noodle shop owner has provided everyone with many investigation clues.
On the contrary, it is the current noodle shop proprietress who looks very suspicious.
According to the mine manager Zhao Deming, the noodle shop owner may be working with the pancake owner.
The unknown whereabouts of the pancake proprietress may actually be related to these two people.
But now, the noodle shop owner's statement is completely inconsistent with the mine manager's statement.
Everyone even learned about some conflicts between his wife and her best friend from the noodle shop owner.
Before He Junchao could investigate more relevant clues, Gu Chen felt that he needed to call the noodle shop owner out to ask for details.
After all, she should know best what the person involved said, which one is true and which one is false?
Since Gu Chen's team had already communicated with the noodle shop owner in the early morning, Gu Chen now needed to verify the clues that he was unclear about.
So he put the mobile phone that the noodle shop owner had placed on the table and gently pushed it towards him.
The noodle shop owner raised his eyebrows and looked in Gu Chen's direction with curious eyes.
"Make a call." Gu Chen said.
"You mean...call my wife?" the noodle shop owner asked tentatively.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "You can call her now and ask her to come."
"Are you telling the truth?" the noodle shop owner said.
Gu Chen shook his head: "Don't tell her that we are here, just say there are some problems in the store. Anyway, you can find the excuse yourself and ask her to come back. It's that simple."
"Okay." Understanding what Gu Chen meant, the noodle shop owner picked up his phone, silently found the number, and then dialed it.
Looking at Gu Chen in front of him, the noodle shop owner was also cautious when making phone calls, as if he was like a child who made a mistake.
Not long after, the call was answered.
Since the store was very quiet at the moment, Gu Chen and the others could hear the voice on the phone clearly.
"Why haven't you come back yet? Are you still in the store?" came the voice of the noodle shop owner's wife on the phone.
The noodle shop owner glanced at Gu Chen and then said slowly: "Yes, I'm still in the shop."
"Then come back quickly. What are you doing in the store? And why are you calling me?"
"I..." The noodle shop owner hesitated for a moment, but continued: "What about that? There is something going on in the store, please come over."
"What's the matter?" Faced with her husband's unusual reaction, the noodle shop owner's wife on the other end of the phone seemed to feel something strange.
But just when the noodle shop owner wanted to ask a few more questions, the noodle shop owner continued: "You just came, I'll wait for you in the shop, that's it."
After he finished speaking, the noodle shop owner hung up the phone directly before he could reply.
Everyone looked at each other, feeling that this noodle shop owner was a bit interesting, especially the communication with his wife, which was simple and direct.
But just now the noodle shop owner hung up the phone, Yuan Shasha was worried that the noodle shop owner wouldn't come over, so she quickly asked:
