The phone rang. Chen Shu took out his phone and looked at it. It was Zhu Chaoran calling.
"Brother Shu, bad news. In the past few days, the community's circuit maintenance has been carried out, and the property management company has cut off the power to the video surveillance system."
Zhu Chaoran, who went to the property office of Tianjia Garden Community, called immediately after learning the details.
"Okay, I understand." Chen Shu was silent for a moment, and then asked with a little expectancy, "How is Li Chaoyang doing?"
"Not long after we left, Xing Da and the others took Zhao Hu away. Alas!"
You could feel Zhu Chaoran's dejection on the phone.
The house leaked, but it rained all night, and the boat was late and encountered a strong wind. Chen Shu secretly sighed, turned to Zhu Chaoran, but seemed to be as steady as a mountain, and said calmly:
"Fat man, it's not a big problem. Then you go back to the institute immediately, follow up on what I told you earlier, keep an eye on it, and try to give me the results at ten o'clock in the evening."
"Okay, Brother Shu."
Zhu Chaoran seemed to have regained a little energy.
"That's it. Remember to keep in touch at any time and call me if there is any progress." Chen Shu still looked calm and composed on the phone and said slowly.
"Dudu!"
In fact, arranging for Zhu Chaoran to return to the institute was not Chen Shu's special concern for him. In fact, no one from top to bottom in the institute felt that Chen Shu or the Zhongshan Institute should bear this responsibility and pressure.
This was a major criminal case in itself, and was not under the direct jurisdiction of the police station. Even after the criminal officer took Zhao Hu away, everyone seemed to have forgotten the matter.
Chen Shu seemed to have a clear idea of this.
But as mentioned before, Chen Shu is not an ordinary person. In the past, especially in cases that occurred within his jurisdiction, no matter whether it was a fight, murder or arson, or even domestic violence or neighborhood disputes, he would be involved.
, surprisingly fast.
Perhaps he has a sense of justice that is different from ordinary people, or a sense of professional mission? In fact, he himself cannot say anything about this.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Shu felt sad for a moment. Although he lightly revealed the fact that the monitoring system was out of power on the phone, the actual situation was that he was also panicking in his heart.
Now that the video surveillance clue has been cut off, we can only go back to the scene to look for other clues.
Chen Shu turned his head and looked at the gate of Tianjia Home not far away, and then walked away.
"Hello, master!"
Looking at the security guard who was watching him with vigilance as he walked, Chen Shu smiled and took out his work ID: "I am a police officer from the Zhongshan Police Station. This is my work ID."
He handed over a cigarette with ease, shook it twice in front of the security guard, and said with a smile: "Want one?"
After the security guard saw his work permit, he put down his guard, raised his hand to take the cigarette, and said with a smile on his old face: "Officer, you are too polite. Do you have anything to do with me?"
Seeing the security uncle accept the cigarette, Chen Shu immediately took out the lighter from his pocket, lit it with a "click!" without showing any signs of carelessness, then flicked his hand back and took one for himself.
He didn't rush to ask questions, he just stood by the gate of the community with the security uncle, watching the people coming and going in the community, and slowly started to smoke cigarettes together.
After taking a few puffs, the smoke filled the air.
As smokers, the largest group in the country, at this time, as insiders, the two of them reached a consensus with each other, and they could be regarded as sympathetic to each other, and they also shortened the distance between each other.
Chen Shu didn't look at the security uncle, he just blew out a puff of smoke leisurely and asked casually: "Uncle, how many years have you been working? Are you a local?"
"Yes, I have been working for more than two years and I am a local."
The security uncle who had already accepted Chen Shu pointed to the old housing area on the corner of the street in the distance, coughing and said:
"Ahem! Just live there. When I got older, I couldn't stay at home, so I found a job close to home to kill time. Ahem!"
"Hey, look what you said, with your eyes, you don't look old at all!"
Chen Shu took out his mobile phone, swiped left and right on the screen for a few photos of Liu Yan's life sent by Li Chaoyang, and asked, "Do you know this person?"
"Well, this woman is our resident here."
The security guard glanced at his phone, thought for a moment, and replied: "I'm from Building B. I don't know what his name is. He drives a white Lamborghini sports car."
"Hey, uncle, it's very fashionable! I remember the name of the car clearly."
Chen Shu casually said cheap flattery, and he was already working hard for investigation clues.
Yes, it is consistent with the information on the hostage at hand. While speaking, I glanced at the pool on the left for a few times.
He stared at the security guard's tone and movements when he answered, and quietly wrote down all the details.
"Hey, I just listened to what the people next to me said, so I can't really do it."
The security uncle smiled and narrowed his eyes. He felt that the police officer in front of him was different from the usual ones with big hats. He was quite friendly.
"Young man, you're on your way." He raised the cigarette in his hand and started talking more, "It's a good smoke!"
Seeing that the security guard had completely let down his guard, Chen Shu got straight to the point.
"Something happened to this woman, and she can't be found now. About what time did she leave here yesterday?"
He played a trick and arranged a hat for Liu Yan, then skipped asking the security guard "Have you seen this person" or "Has this person been here", but lowered his voice and asked directly.
Hearing this, the security uncle was startled, and his eyes unnaturally glanced at Chen Shu's pocket where his work ID was kept.
Chen Shu remained silent, just stood aside and continued to smoke, watching his every move quietly, silently exerting pressure.
".I was on duty last night." The security guard spit out the key information.
Chen Shu couldn't help but tighten the cigarette in his mouth.
