Chu Lingyun asked again, and Loach immediately took him to the door of a furniture store. This was a small and medium-sized furniture store. Ren Han just rode his bicycle to look at the furniture, but the car was stolen after a while.
This place is about 400 meters away from Hou Laosan's factory, which is not too far.
But the distance is not close. If you run, it will take at least more than a minute to reach 400 meters on this road. The other party needs to make an emergency notification to evacuate, so every minute and every second is important.
If Chu Lingyun hadn't been a step faster this time, Liu Dazhuang might have escaped.
"Team leader, I think Hou Laosan is still the best. You see, he was notified that this is the only way to the hotel. There are no rickshaws passing by on this alley. He wants to make a phone call faster. Stealing a car is definitely a problem.
The best way is that he has superb lock-picking skills, so it is not difficult to steal a car."
Loach pointed to the distance and said, especially when he found the hat at Hou Laosan's house, he was even more convinced that Hou Laosan was the person they were looking for.
"Don't be too subjective."
Chu Lingyun shook her head and walked out immediately.
If you just look at the map, you won't be able to tell anything about this area. Today's maps are far from as clear and accurate as the online maps of later generations. You can see any store on the roadside.
There are several furniture factories in this area, and there are many people selling furniture here.
Beyond this area, there is a commercial area about 800 meters to the east, where there are several shops and public telephones.
After checking the surrounding situation, Chu Lingyun returned to the car and bowed his head in front of the map without saying a word.
Hou Laosan is obviously closer to the business district than the hotel where he called. If he informs Liu Dazhuang, it will be faster and more convenient to go to that business district.
Moreover, there is a main road less than a hundred meters east, and there are many rickshaws on that road.
Of course, it is possible that Hou Laosan did not dare to take a rickshaw in order to avoid being found out, or he might have deliberately come west to go to a hotel farther away.
There are various possibilities. Before confirming the real caller, all issues must be considered comprehensively, and no suspicion can be ruled out at will.
"Didn't you say that there are two people who can open locks after touching paint? What about the other one?" Chu Lingyun suddenly asked.
"That man was thin and thin. The hotel clerk saw him and saw a big difference."
Ni Loach hurriedly replied that this was one of the reasons why he determined that Hou Laosan was the caller. Of the two key suspects, the other one could be eliminated, leaving only Hou Laosan.
Wu Da's figure is not right, it can be ruled out.
Hou Laosan is still the first suspect, but until these doubts are clear, Chu Lingyun will not arrest the person immediately, let alone conclude that Hou Laosan is a spy.
"Have you checked out Hou Laosan's disciples?"
"Not yet, do they want to check it too?" Loach was startled and asked hurriedly.
"Check, check all people who know how to pick locks."
Chu Lingyun glared at Ni Loach. If he hadn't been in charge of the case and handed it over to Ni Loach, I'm afraid he would have arrested Hou Laosan.
"Yes, I'll check it out right away."
Niliu was startled and realized that he had made some omissions in his work. He now identified Hou Laosan and didn't think about anyone else at all.
More than an hour later, Loach came back. Chu Lingyun did not leave and kept waiting for him in the car.
"I asked the police carefully. Hou Laosan had four apprentices. One of them was beaten to death by mistake in the early years. The two are not here. I don't know where they are now. They are probably still doing thieves. Currently, there is only one.
The apprentice is by his side."
The apprentice mentioned by Ni Loach refers to the person who has learned Hou Laosan’s lock-picking skills.
"This man's name is Huang Ye, he is a closed disciple of Hou Laosan. He has never been a thief and has always been with Hou Laosan. I just checked and his name is not on the list provided by Wang Sheng. It may be because he has no
I stole things and only studied with Hou Laosan, so there is no record of him.
"Huang Ye is also a carpenter now, but he is not in the same factory as Hou Laosan. He is in the Huayuan Furniture Factory in front."
Ni Loach pointed to a factory to the west. The factory was very close to the furniture store, diagonally across from it.
Chu Lingyun looked at the map again. Starting from this location, it is indeed the closest to the hotel, and it can be reached by bicycle in five minutes.
"Check the situation of Huang Ye." Chu Lingyun ordered, but Niyi didn't dare to talk nonsense and took the people away again.
"Team leader, Huang Ye is not in the factory."
Loach returned a few minutes later, still a little panicked: "I asked him about the people in the factory. Huang Ye went out at the time of the phone call yesterday, and he had a blue robe and the same one as Hou Laosan.
hat, and then he came back in a hurry, and no one saw him after that."
Wearing a blue robe and the same hat, Chu Lingyun's eyes tightened slightly.
"Go and find out who last saw him, what he was doing when you saw him, and what he was doing before the call yesterday?"
Chu Lingyun ordered the blue robe and the same hat in succession, and with this location, even though the hotel clerk had not yet confirmed it, Huang Ye also had a serious suspicion.
Most importantly, he disappeared.
"Yes, team leader, I'll go check it out right away."
Loach left in a hurry. He identified Hou Laosan, but a more suspicious person appeared, making him understand that his investigation was not detailed enough or comprehensive enough.
If the caller is really Huang Ye, once they catch Hou Laosan, Huang Ye will probably know that he has been exposed and escape.
More than half an hour later, the loach came back.
"Team leader, Huang Ye is a painter at a furniture factory and is mainly responsible for painting. The last person who saw him yesterday was the boss of the factory. He told the boss that something happened at home and asked for leave to leave."
"His home is not in Nanjing, but over there in Wuxi. When he left, he only took a box with him and nothing else."
"But I found out that Huang Ye likes to listen to the radio. He has a radio and he usually listens to it when he is working. Yesterday before he went out, he listened to the radio while painting as usual. His co-workers said they didn't know what was wrong.
, he suddenly said he had something to do and went out, took the radio away, and never came back again."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Go and ask him what the last thing he heard on the radio was."
Chu Lingyun's face was gloomy. He thought of sending notifications, phone calls and radio stations, but ignored the radio.
For those who receive information, there is no need for a radio station or a telephone. With a radio, he can receive any information he wants.
In this case, he was also negligent.
"Yes, team leader."
Loach ran out again. He understood that he had made a mistake before and arbitrarily determined that Hou Laosan was a spy. Now it seems that Huang Yecai is more like the person who made the phone call.
"Zhao Dong, go back to the office and call Team Leader Hu from the Technical Section, and pick up Yang Jian by the way."
After Ni Loach left, Chu Lingyun ordered Zhao Dong beside him. Zhao Dong was a soldier, did well and had good skills. Chu Lingyun specially transferred him to his side.
He is both a guard and his own communicator.
According to the existing clues, Huang Ye's suspicion is obviously greater. All the doubts can be clearly explained on him. Moreover, since the other person is missing, it is likely that he has been temporarily hidden.
Chu Lingyun judged that he was hiding instead of evacuating because he asked his boss for leave.
If you evacuate directly, there is no need to ask for leave and the person disappears, but it may also be to avoid making the factory suspicious and expose yourself too early.
Now that the person has disappeared, we can only rely on guessing if we can't find him.
Loach returned to Chu Lingyun first. Time was running out, so he directly found Huang Ye's coworkers and brought them back.
"Sir, I am really not what Huang Ye is doing. He likes to listen to an opera channel on the radio. I listened to it together when I had nothing to do. The opera was very good yesterday, but an advertisement suddenly came on. After listening to the advertisement, he took the radio and left.
Well, I also said he was stingy and didn’t leave the radio for us to listen to when he went out."
The worker saw so many people, and the person looking for him brought a gun, indicating that he was an official, which made him panic.
"Don't be nervous. What was the last advertisement you heard yesterday?"
Chu Lingyun had a good attitude towards him and comforted him, which made the worker feel a little more at ease.
"It's an advertisement for selling plasters. The name is quite hard to pronounce. When I think about it, it seems to be the Sanshan brand. Yes, it is the Sanshan brand."
"What were you doing before listening to the advertisement?" Chu Lingyun continued to ask.
"We are painting, and there are several sets of furniture that are urgently needed for delivery. We need to paint them as soon as possible."
"What color?"
"Dark yellow."
Loach hurriedly said: "This factory has also purchased those two types of paint."
The dark yellow paint matched the number. Huang Ye's suspicion increased again. Chu Lingyun looked at the worker and continued to ask: "What kind of clothes did he wear when he worked yesterday?"
"We only wear work clothes when we work. When we paint, it is easy to get paint on our bodies. Who would be willing to wear good clothes?"
"Did Huang Ye change clothes when he left?" Chu Lingyun asked again.
"We must change it. Our clothes are all covered in paint. How can we go out? He changed into the blue robe he was wearing before, took a hat and left."
The clothes you wear when going out should be matched again.
"Do you know Hou Laosan?" Chu Lingyun asked again.
"I recognize him. He is Huang Ye's master. He introduced Huang Ye to our factory. I heard that he used to do this and didn't learn well."
The worker stretched out his hand and made a gesture of holding something, which meant a thief.
"Is Huang Ye's body shape similar to that of Hou Laosan?"
"They look alike. Not only do they have similar body shapes, but they also look alike. We usually joke about Huang Ye, saying that the third child looks like his biological father."
The body shape is very similar, and they are opposite each other. With so many clues combined, it can almost be judged that Huang Ye is the real person who made the call.
"Team leader, I was wrong." Loach lowered his head in embarrassment.
"We'll talk about your business later."
After Chu Lingyun finished speaking, he asked the workers: "What are Huang Ye's hobbies? Do you know where he likes to go?"
If Huang Ye just hides, then he will probably come back, but before he comes back, Chu Lingyun will not wait. He must find Huang Ye's flaws and try to catch him as soon as possible.
"He likes to listen to advertisements and most of all operas," the worker said hurriedly.
Listening to plays and radio is not really a hobby. He is probably listening to the radio to wait for notifications all the time, or to wait for notifications at a fixed time.
"What else?"
"No, I'm not very familiar with him. Xiao Wu in the factory has the closest relationship with him. Maybe Xiao Wu will know what he likes."
The worker shook his head, and Chu Lingyun glanced at Loach, who immediately ran out.
"Team leader, Team Leader Hu and the others are here."
Before Loach came back, Zhao Dong had already returned and brought back the technical staff and Yang Jian with the boxes.
"Team Leader Hu, could you please go and extract your fingerprints later, and compare them to see if they have the half fingerprint we found on the car yesterday."
Chu Lingyun said to Team Leader Hu that if the fingerprints could match, then Huang Ye must be the person who made the call.
He suddenly disappeared on his own, and the place where he lost his bicycle was so close to him. He has the same clothes, the same body shape, he can open locks, and may have the same paint on his body. If you compare the fingerprints, all the evidence will point to him.
"Sir Chu, I'm here."
After Chu Lingyun finished giving instructions, Yang Jianxuan approached with a smile. Yesterday, he followed him for an inexplicable trip and was finally taken back. He did nothing, but he had no complaints. Chu Lingyun's monthly salary was not less than his.
, where can I find such a nourishing day?
He is not afraid of being asked to do things for himself, but is afraid of not being allowed to do things for him.
There is really no need for him anymore. He believes that people will throw him away at any time. He has no other skills except painting. If no one uses him, he will be reduced to the embarrassment of painting on the street.
"Yang Jian, get ready to paint."
Chu Lingyun didn't talk nonsense to Yang Jian. Yang Jian hurriedly took out the drawing board, laid out the paper, held the brush and waited for Chu Lingyun's instructions.
"I asked, you said, don't be nervous, just tell the truth." Chu Lingyun comforted the workers again, saying that if you are too nervous, it is easy to make mistakes.
"What kind of hairstyle does Huang Ye have? How long is the hair? Is it curly? Is it high on both sides?"
Chu Lingyun guided her step by step, while the workers kept describing Huang Ye's appearance. Yang Jian had experience and painted calmly.
This time I didn’t use so many pieces of paper, I only used six pieces to draw Huang Ye’s appearance.
"That's it. It's amazing. Just by saying that, you can draw the appearance of a human being?"
When the workers saw the final product, they exclaimed in surprise. People in this era didn't know much about sketching, and they had never seen people being able to draw people. It was very surprising to them.
"Team leader, he is Xiaowu."
Loach came back when he was painting just now. He saw that Chu Lingyun was busy and didn't dare to disturb him.
"Xiaowu, you have a close relationship with Huang Ye. Do you know him well?"
Chu Lingyun looked at Xiao Wu, who was equally nervous and shook his head hastily: "I have a good relationship with him, but Huang Ye is usually taciturn and doesn't talk much, so I don't know much about him."
"What does he like most, such as what he likes to eat, what he likes to do, whether he likes gambling, women, or fighting crickets? Just tell him all the hobbies you know."
Chu Lingyun continued to guide and asked directly, these workers would not know why.
Be specific and they'll understand what's going on.
"Huang Ye is usually alone. He doesn't drink or gamble. I've never seen him go to a brothel, and I haven't heard of him getting along with anyone. But once I heard him say that he liked fishing, and he said that he hadn't fished in a long time.
Fish."
Xiao Wu said quickly, there were more than 20 big men on Chu Lingyun's side, and they were hiding in the dark. He was really scared, so he said whatever he asked.
