Since Cheng Yu never responded to WeChat, Zhou Datong did not dare to disturb him.
Yesterday, Cheng Yu briefly described his day's activities to Zhou Datong. Basically, he didn't find much time to rest.
Moreover, it was already past twelve o'clock when Cheng Yu and Zhou Datong separated last night. They drove to the hotel and checked in. Zhou Datong estimated that Cheng Yu would not go to bed until around two o'clock at the earliest.
It just so happened that his WeChat message was also sent to Cheng Yu around two o'clock.
According to the sleep time of about eight hours for adults, it is normal for Cheng Yu to sleep until ten o'clock. Anyway, Lao Dapeng was originally scheduled to take the flight to Harbin this morning. When he waited, it was already twelve o'clock. If Cheng Yu got up at ten o'clock,
There's even time to eat and drink coffee.
When this happened, Zhou Datong felt extremely uncomfortable.
Cheng Yu was asleep, but Zhou Datong didn't sleep all night. By now, there was a fight between his eyes.
But he couldn't sleep because he had to wait until Cheng Yu responded to the message and tell Cheng Yu the information he got last night.
This is embarrassing.
After much hesitation, Zhou Datong finally called Cheng Yu. He thought it was a call that would wake Cheng Yu up, but he didn't expect that Cheng Yu answered it instantly.
"Hey, you got up quite early. That's right, the KTV is close to your place..."
Hearing Cheng Yu's energetic voice, Zhou Datong was stunned. He asked tiredly: "Mr. Cheng, are you awake early?"
"Well, I got up at early seven o'clock. Then I went downstairs to drink some porridge, came up and took a shower. I was changing clothes and getting ready to go out for a walk."
"Then why didn't you reply to my WeChat message? I thought you slept late last night, so I didn't dare to disturb you!"
"Have you sent me a WeChat message?" Cheng Yu felt a little strange.
Zhou Datong heard the sound on the phone getting quieter, and it was probably because Cheng Yu was checking the phone.
"It's true... I remembered it. I heard this WeChat message. I just lay down last night and heard my phone ringing. I picked it up and took a look. I saw it was from you and thought it was asking me if I had found the hotel.
I just deleted the notification. I forgot to read it when I got up today..."
Cheng Yu checked his phone and found that there was indeed a WeChat message from Zhou Datong. After clicking it, he saw that Zhou Datong's WeChat message showed two messages. The closer one had the word "picture" on it, so Cheng Yu
He didn't click on it, but chose to explain it to Zhou Datong first.
Zhou Datong was depressed.
"You see it now?"
"What did you see? I didn't see it... I just saw that you sent a picture, but you didn't click on it."
"You should open it!" Zhou Datong felt like crying.
Cheng Yu was surprised, but he still moved the phone away from his ear, then entered WeChat and clicked on Zhou Datong's message.
It was indeed a text message and a picture, but even if it was a small picture, it had not been clicked. Cheng Yu could not see clearly what the text message was, and Cheng Yu only felt his pupils suddenly shrink.
.
"Cheng Fu and Lao Dapeng?" Cheng Yu clicked on the picture and took a brief look at it. He also saw that it was a barbecue stall on the roadside. Moreover, from the angle behind Lao Dapeng, he could also see
A corner of Shangri-La Hotel.
This is a barbecue stall not far from Shangri-La?
So Zhou Datong discovered Lao Dapeng when he went back last night?
So if I had not come to the airport on my own initiative yesterday, but had gone back to Shangri-La with Zhou Datong, would I have been able to meet these two people?
but……
Wait, didn't Lao Dapeng just arrive on the plane today? When was this grandson already in Harbin?
What happened to Lao Bian? Everyone in Lao Dapeng left, but they didn’t notice?
"Master Cheng, Master Cheng..."
Zhou Datong's anxious voice came from the phone.
Cheng Yu quickly put the phone to his ear and said, "Is this not far from the hotel entrance?"
"Well, when I came back last night, I saw a barbecue stall at the intersection. Aren't you hungry after sitting at the KTV for so long? I just wanted to eat some barbecue. But after entering..."
Cheng Yu suddenly realized something was wrong and said, "That's not right. Wait, you don't know Cheng Fu or Lao Dapeng, do you?"
Zhou Dadong hurriedly explained: "Young Master Cheng, you will understand after listening to me.
I got out of the car, walked to the barbecue stall, and was choosing skewers.
I happened to hear Lao Dapeng lamenting there, saying that the barbecue in Northeast China is still the most delicious. I have lived in Wudong for a month and have never eaten authentic Northeast barbecue.
When I heard this, I felt a little strange, so I observed the two people and found that they looked somewhat similar to the ones you described about Cheng Fu and Lao Dapeng.
The key is that Mr. Cheng looks a little bit like you.
I secretly took this photo of them."
"Then why didn't you ask me at that time?" Cheng Yu realized it. According to time calculation, Zhou Datong returned to Shangri-La, at most, shortly after 12:30, and he had just driven onto the airport expressway at that time.
, if I had known about it at that time, I would have rushed back in time.
"I wasn't sure at the time. If these two weren't Cheng Fu and Lao Dapeng, there was no need for me to disturb you, right?"
"Then how did you confirm it later?"
"I left the barbecue stall on the pretext that my wife was urging me to go home. I actually wanted to send you a message to ask you, but suddenly, I thought that Mr. Cheng is a senior executive of the Cheng Group, and he must be on the management list.
, for companies like the Cheng Group, senior executives have to be posted on the official website. So I searched the official website, took a look, and thoroughly confirmed that it was Mr. Cheng."
"Then why don't you tell me quickly at this time?" Cheng Yu was really a little anxious. He couldn't sit still anymore. He got up and ran out. He didn't even check out the room. He ran directly to the parking lot, took the car and went
Open in urban area.
Zhou Datong felt aggrieved and said: "I only confirmed Cheng Fu's identity at that time, and was not sure that the person opposite was Lao Dapeng. It was just his statement that he stayed in Wudong for a month that attracted my attention.
After I left the barbecue stall, I calmed down and thought about it, and felt that the possibility of it being Lao Dapeng was extremely slim.
You think, your analysis is that Fu Cheng wants Lao Dapeng to be the scapegoat, and Lao Dapeng's mission is going to go wrong at eight o'clock this morning. How can they sit together and have a drink and a barbecue?
The key is that you said before that Lao Dapeng just returned to Northeast China today? You also said that you have friends from the police over there to help keep an eye on..."
Cheng Yu had just run to the parking lot at this time. Hearing this, he was stunned and knew that his attitude was somewhat wrong.
Indeed, the information Zhou Datong obtained was not equal to his own. He was unclear about too many things, so it was naturally impossible for him to react completely in line with his own wishes.
"Sorry, I'm just a little anxious. You continue. What happened next?"
Zhou Datong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "After I finished, I was thinking about it, but I found that the two people were standing on the roadside and stopped the taxi. I originally thought they would return to the hotel after eating. I thought at the time, this
Since Mr. Cheng was going to follow others, why did he need to get a room in Shangri-La? I quickly called an online taxi and followed them."
Cheng Yu was delighted when he heard this: "You followed them? So, do you know where they are now?"
"Yes, I know. They are at Lao Dapeng's home. Oh, it's Harbin's home. Lao Jin and his wife should have bought a villa for their son in Harbin."
"Very good!"
Cheng Yu got into the car, immediately started the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the parking lot.
Judging from the logic, even if Cheng Fu brought Lao Dapeng to the Russian killer, the killer would not kill Lao Dapeng at this time.
After all, this is China, and the Russian seems to be an extremely cautious person. Since he can plan the car accident against Cheng Guangnian, he should be able to create a near-perfect absence for himself while killing Lao Dapeng.
evidence.
At the very least, Lao Dapeng's death time can be set after he leaves China.
Therefore, since Zhou Datong knows Lao Dapeng's current location, everything should be done in time.
"Tell me in detail what you tracked last night." Cheng Yu connected his phone to the Bluetooth in the car while driving, and then chose to put it outside.
Zhou Datong started talking when he got into the online car-hailing car. He knew that Cheng Yu was driving to the hotel at this moment, so he was not in a hurry to be concise and to the point, but told it in extra detail.
It wasn't until he finished telling what happened in the single-family villa community last night that Cheng Yu asked: "In other words, you didn't see them entering that community, and you never saw them again?"
"I haven't seen it, but the taxi driver made it very clear that he took the two people to the door of Building 13 and saw with his own eyes that the two people pressed the code of the courtyard door and then left. And he was guarding the door.
The old man also confirmed that the house belonged to Lao Dapeng, and it was also because of this that I confirmed that the person was Lao Dapeng."
Cheng Yu thought about it and felt that there should be no problem, so he said, "Thank you for your hard work. You slept very late last night, and you woke up very early this time."
"Well, to tell you the truth, I didn't sleep at all last night."
"Ah? What are you doing here if you don't sleep after you go back?"
"After I came back, the more I thought about it, the more something was wrong. I was thinking, Lao Dapeng was desperate, but Master Cheng didn't give him any money, how could he still drink and eat meat with Master Cheng? So I thought,
Is your previous guess wrong? It's not that Master Cheng doesn't want to give Lao Dapeng money, but that he is indeed collecting money. So I..."
Zhou Datong also told Cheng Yu how he had returned to the hotel, how he had retrieved his computer, and how he had searched on the dark web.
Only then did Cheng Yu realize that Zhou Datong had been up all night just staring at the information on the dark web.
And when he learned that the darknet had ruled a violation, the next step was for them to deal with the matter.
"The Darknet hasn't announced the mission against Lao Dapeng yet, right?"
"I just took a look, and there are no tasks released against illegal members. The rules of the dark web will not release tasks against Lao Dapeng so quickly. I will definitely have to contact the Russian and go through the process of asking parents.
.”
"I'm almost there, can you hold on a little longer?" Cheng Yu has already entered the city. Now that he knows that Lao Dapeng has come to Harbin in advance and is still with Cheng Fu, it means he has fallen into the trap.
into the hands of the Russians.
He had to rush over as soon as possible and could not give the Russians time to kill Lao Dapeng.
"Which neighborhood do you want to go to?"
"Um."
"Then I'll go downstairs now."
Cheng Yu hung up the phone and immediately called Lao Bian.
