"How weird is that?" Zhao Guozhi quickly asked as he felt like he was getting very anxious just listening to the receptionist lady's words.
"He just didn't check out or ask for the deposit back when he left. He just disappeared and was only discovered when our cleaning staff was doing daily cleaning," the female front desk said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was dead silence in the hall.
Everyone looked at each other, and their first reaction was that He Xizhou was going to run away.
"No, madam, do you think this is okay? Get the surveillance records of your hotel for that day and show them to us."
"Because this person, he...he is very dangerous, and we must bring him to justice."
"That's no problem." Seeing that the old policeman was very worried, he must have been so worried.
The female receptionist didn't hesitate, she directly picked up the intercom on the desk and communicated for a while.
Not long after, a man wearing a security uniform walked out from the side passage.
"Comrade police, come with me," the security guard said.
Everyone was busy and followed the security guard directly in.
It has to be said that the control room of a star-rated hotel is made to be high-end and classy.
Many corridor details can be seen clearly here.
Including some young couples hugging each other in the corridor.
Of course, this is not the focus of everyone's investigation.
You know, it is indeed very dangerous for a murderer to return to Jiangnan City and be active on the streets of Jiangnan City under another identity.
The key point is that the ID card used by He Xizhou could not be seen through when checking into a hotel room.
It can be seen that the degree of fraud is extremely high.
In Gu Chen's opinion, perhaps He Xizhou used some channel to assume someone else's identity.
Maybe this man named Wan Fakui looks similar to He Xizhou.
But no matter which one it is? What everyone has to do now is to find and arrest He Xizhou.
"Look." The security guard pointed to the surveillance camera that day and couldn't help but said: "This person did leave the hotel, took the elevator to the underground parking lot, and never showed up again after leaving."
"Then when you searched the room, did you find any of his belongings?" Gu Chen asked.
The security guard hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "Wait a minute."
Then the security guard took out his walkie-talkie and asked questions into the microphone.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman's response came over the intercom.
The two also communicated in foreign languages for a while, and then the security guard replied: "Comrade police, according to the housekeeper who was responsible for cleaning the presidential suite that day, the man didn't leave anything behind because he didn't bring anything with him when he checked in.
, so it was like this when I left.”
"However, he didn't check out when he left, and the deposit is still here. Anyway, we will treat it as if he checked out and no deposit will be required."
"He left in a hurry." After hearing what the security guard said, Zhao Guozhi frowned slightly.
I want to communicate further with Gu Chen and the others, but I can’t do it here.
So after confirming all the surveillance images, Zhao Guozhi asked everyone to go home and go back to the Furong branch first for further discussion.
…
…
7pm.
Furong Branch Canteen.
Everyone used the kitchen utensils in Master Nie's kitchen to heat up some dumplings to eat.
Everyone sat together and simply enjoyed it.
Zhao Guozhi "never forgets" He Xizhou, and also asked He Junchao: "By the way, Xiao He, have you found the vehicle that left?"
"Not yet... not yet. It is found that it is a fake car and the color of the car is wrong. It will take some time to investigate."
The work was not completed, and He Junchao also seemed cautious when speaking.
Zhao Guozhi sighed quietly and said, "Continue checking."
After he finished speaking, he continued to eat the dumplings in the bowl.
Officer Wang glanced at He Junchao and reminded in a low voice: "He Xizhou is very important to Bureau Zhao. If you find He Xizhou, it will be a great achievement."
"You don't have to say this? Don't I know?" He Junchao also whispered back.
I feel that investigating He Xizhou is indeed a bit difficult.
Zhao Guozhi looked up and asked, "What are you two muttering about?"
"Oh, I'm talking about the case." Officer Wang responded casually.
He Junchao also quickly replied: "Actually, I used road surveillance to track that car at first, but then I lost sight of it at the intersection of Guangming Road and Torch Road."
"After all, as you know, roads are being built everywhere in the city, and surveillance in many places has become a blind spot. I am also very helpless."
"In other words, the vehicle disappeared at the intersection of Guangming Road and Torch Road. Which road should we take?" asked Gu Chen, who was eating dumplings.
"I guess it's Guangming Road." He Junchao raised his head and expressed his opinion: "Because Torch Road is in other sections and there are not many surveillances, but there are still some, but the car didn't appear. I guess it's heading towards Guangming Road.
Go that way."
"Guangming Road?" Zhao Guozhi put down his chopsticks, lowered his head in thought, and murmured to himself: "Go straight on Guangming Road, which is beyond the boundaries of Jiangnan City. It is a county-level path to the brother city."
"This He Xizhou's home is in Jiangnan City, but according to the investigation, he does not live back home and has no contact with his family. So where will he go?"
Glancing at Gu Chen, Zhao Guozhi, who was puzzled, said again: "Gu Chen."
"Here." Gu Chen looked up at him.
"Tell me what you think." Zhao Guozhi said.
Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "Then I'll just say it casually, because this He Xizhou has two lives on his back, and he also assaulted the police. It can be said that if he is caught, his life will be over."
"And this He Xizhou can make a name for himself in such a complex environment in Southeast Asia, which shows that this guy is very cunning and has a very serious defensive mentality."
"So, if this is the case, I think that even if he returns to Jiangnan City and wants to see his family, he will not risk contact."
"He may arrange for his family to be taken abroad to meet him."
"Yes." Zhao Guozhi said with great agreement: "Gu Chen, you made this point very clear. We did investigate He Xizhou's family before and found out that they had several incidents in recent years.
The experience of going abroad.”
"And the destinations are some countries in Southeast Asia. They are nominally for tourism, but who knows if they are meeting He Xizhou."
Gu Chen nodded silently and added: "So, He Xizhou may have met his family abroad, but at home, he is afraid of being monitored, so he may not dare to be so blatant."
"It can be seen from the fact that he used a fake identity to stay in the presidential suite. This guy would rather live in the presidential suite that costs 5,000 a day than live at home."
"The last departure was also mysterious. Maybe he came back this time just to buy a few houses for his family and children to make up for the debt he had owed to his family over the years."
"But if he has no other contacts in Jiangnan City, or very close friends, I don't believe it. Maybe his friends prepared this car for him."
"Yes." Lu Weiwei snapped her fingers and said in agreement: "With He Xizhou's current status as a 'Scorpion', he can be considered the eldest brother."
"As the eldest brother, there are always some younger brothers to do things for him. It's not easy to get a car? But the key point is that he left in a hurry. Could it be that he was delayed because of something?"
"It's possible." Gu Chen nodded silently, then glanced at Zhao Guozhi: "Director Zhao, I suggest you start the search from Guangming Road, including all villages, hotels, and restaurants along the way. Don't let go of these. There may be some people.
Saw him."
"Okay." Zhao Guozhi nodded slightly, then took out his mobile phone and started talking to Qin Gang.
The two also communicated on the phone for a long time. Zhao Guozhi then hung up the phone, glanced at the new and old comrades surrounding him, and then said:
"Eat quickly. After eating, I will send some people to come with me to find He Xizhou's whereabouts."
"yes!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded in unison.
After leaving a small number of police officers on duty at the Furong Branch, Zhao Guozhi mobilized more than a dozen people, divided into four vehicles, and began to search for He Xizhou's whereabouts along Guangming Road.
This county-level highway, as a small road leading to sister cities, usually has a lot of traffic.
But during the Spring Festival holiday, there were very few vehicles on the road.
Before the investigation, Zhao Guozhi asked He Junchao to print hundreds of color photos in preparation for questioning along the way.
…
…
9:30 pm.
When everyone arrived at Hedong Town, the assault vehicle also needed refueling.
Officer Wang drove the vehicle into a nearby gas station, while the others got out of the car and began to search for some supermarket stores in Hedong Town.
According to experience, if He Xizhou drove away, he might go to a supermarket to buy cigarettes on the way.
As long as a relevant boss recognizes He Xizhou, it seems that finding He Xizhou will become easier.
"Boss, have you ever seen this person?" Gu Chen held up a color A4 photo of He Xizhou in front of a supermarket owner.
This is already the third store Gu Chen is looking for.
The boss was a white-haired old man. When he saw that the visitor was a policeman, he immediately put on his reading glasses and picked up the color photo in Gu Chen's hand to look at it.
After a while, the boss replied with a faint smile: "I know this person, he should live here."
"Live here?" After hearing what the old man said, Lu Weiwei frowned and quickly asked: "Master, can you take a closer look to see if it's him?"
When she felt that the old man might be spoiled for choice, Lu Weiwei remained cautious.
But when asked, the old man seemed a little unhappy. He frowned and retorted: "How could I get it wrong? He often comes to me to buy cigarettes during this period, and I even chatted with him. How could I get it wrong?"
Woolen cloth?"
Exchanging the color A4 paper photo to Gu Chen, the old man also said with certainty: "This man lives in the hotel opposite. Anyway, I often see him coming out from there."
"Hotel?" After hearing what the supermarket boss said, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei both looked to the left.
On an uphill section, a "hotel" LED sign was still flashing.
Perhaps due to its age and disrepair, the hotel at this time was directly transformed into a "square hotel".
After getting the exact information, Gu Chen quickly took Lu Weiwei and ran back to Zhao Guozhi.
"How's it going?" Zhao Guozhi and Yuan Shasha had just finished checking one of the supermarkets.
Seeing Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei rushing over, they quickly asked.
"Found it." Lu Weiwei said with joy, and quickly reported: "The old man from the supermarket over there said that He Xizhou lives in that hotel in the town."
In order to avoid alerting others, Lu Weiwei tried to lower her tone of voice.
Zhao Guozhi frowned and was immediately overjoyed. He quickly asked, "Are you sure?"
"It's probably close to ten." Gu Chen also said.
According to what the supermarket boss said, it doesn't seem to be a big problem.
At this moment, Zhao Guozhi waved his hand, and other old and new comrades also rushed over.
More than a dozen police officers immediately put on their equipment, and many officers pulled out their crack guns, preparing to arrest the fugitive He Xizhou.
After a simple deployment on site, everyone worked together to surround the hotel building.
Before the middle-aged woman at the front desk could react, Gu Chen led everyone into the hall and made a silent sign to the middle-aged woman.
Later, Lu Weiwei showed He Xizhou's color photo and asked softly: "Does this person live in your store?"
"Yeah." The landlady was a little surprised at this time.
When I saw so many police officers arriving, all wearing all kinds of strange equipment, I suddenly became nervous.
"What about others?" Zhao Guozhi asked again.
"Still...still in the room." The landlady didn't dare to speak loudly, so she could only reply in a low tone.
"Tell me the room number, quickly." Gu Chen continued to urge.
The landlady choked up and then said: "Let's live... on the third floor, room 302."
"Key." Gu Chen hooked his hand.
The landlady immediately handed it over.
"Walk."
Gu Chen, who got the key, and Officer Wang who came later, immediately pulled out their domestic crack guns and led a group of police officers to touch it softly.
When we got upstairs, we discovered that the building was extremely old. Although the walls had been repainted, they still had an old structure.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Judging from the structure of the house, it looks a bit like a converted school dormitory.
Moreover, there is an old-fashioned exhaust window above the door of each room.
All doors use old door locks, which can be opened with a copper key.
Arriving at the door of Room 302, everyone came to both sides to listen to what was going on in the room.
At this moment, the room was pitch dark.
Since He Xizhou is a murderer, he has several lives in his hands.
And he once injured a police officer.
It is precisely because of this that everyone knows that this guy is indeed difficult to deal with.
Therefore, everyone maintained a cautious attitude when preparing for the arrest.
I feel that He Xizhou should be the turtle in the urn.
But at this moment, Gu Chen smelled a familiar smell in the house.
"Click!" Officer Wang took out the key and twisted the door lock, only to find that the door lock was locked from the inside and it was difficult to open it with the key.
But just when Officer Wang was about to use his second plan, to forcefully break down the door and arrest him, he was stopped by Gu Chen.
"What's wrong?" Officer Wang stopped and looked confused.
"The smell of blood, a very strong smell of blood." Gu Chen reminded.
Officer Wang raised his eyebrows and quickly followed Gu Chen's prompts, leaning against the door and sniffing.
"It seems a little bit." As an old comrade, Officer Wang's face suddenly changed, and he seemed to smell this familiar smell.
How come there is such a strong smell of blood? There seems to be a strange smell in the surrounding air.
Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The two new police officers suddenly felt their hearts pounding, feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was too weird.
Gu Chen made a silent sign language to everyone, and then used tactical sign language to communicate with Officer Wang.
Officer Wang made an OK gesture, then retracted the crack gun and half-crouched at the door. Gu Chen stepped on Officer Wang's knees and straddled Officer Wang's shoulders.
With Lu Weiwei's support, Officer Wang took a deep breath and slowly lifted Gu Chen up.
And Gu Chen finally saw everything in the house through the exhaust window on the door.
At this moment, Gu Chen frowned and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"What did you see?" Officer Wang raised Gu Chen and asked softly.
It felt like something was wrong with Gu Chen's expression.
Gu Chen didn't say anything, but patted Officer Wang on the shoulder, indicating to put him down.
Officer Wang didn't think much, squatted down and put Gu Chen down.
But as soon as Gu Chen landed on the ground, he pushed Officer Wang away, grabbed the ground with his right toe, and kicked back.
With the help of help, Gu Chen's right leg was as fast as the wind and he kicked the door lock.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, the old wooden door was kicked open.
Suddenly, six or seven flashlight beams shone in.
Officer Wang rushed into the room first with a police officer.
But as soon as the lights were turned on, everyone froze on the spot and took a deep breath.
Just like Gu Chen's reaction just now, everyone was stunned and it was difficult to imagine the scene in front of them.
A man was lying on the bed covered in blood, with a knife stuck in his neck, and the ground was covered with masks.
"What...what's going on?" Seeing such a strange scene, Officer Wang took a step back for fear of stepping on the mask on the ground.
Gu Chen slowly squatted down and found that the mouths of all the masks in front of him seemed to be stained with a little blood.
Gu Chen decisively took out his gloves, muffs, and headgear, and finished putting on the equipment on the spot. Then he carefully stepped over the mask and came to the man beside the bed.
"How is it?" At this moment, Zhao Guozhi, standing at the door, was already anxious.
It seems that this unexpected situation caught me by surprise.
After Gu Chen repeatedly confirmed the man's appearance, he turned back and reported: "Director Zhao, this man has no signs of life, and according to my confirmation, he is the murderer fugitive He Xizhou we are looking for."
"Is it He Xizhou? Is it really him? But he..."
Zhao Guozhi was overjoyed, but the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
"Is he dead?" Zhao Guozhi asked with a puzzled look.
The atmosphere at the scene felt too weird.
Various masks were scattered on the ground, and with the dead He Xizhou lying on the bed, everything seemed too weird.
Gu Chen shook his head and said involuntarily: "Every mask here seems to have a little blood on its mouth."
After touching the body of the deceased He Xizhou, Gu Chen paused for a few seconds and then said: "And judging from the physical condition of the deceased He Xizhou, his death time should not exceed half an hour."
"Not more than half an hour?" Officer Wang frowned and said quickly: "Is that homicide or suicide?"
"It shouldn't be suicide." Gu Chen looked at the blade and couldn't help but said: "If it was suicide, then He Xizhou couldn't have buried his hands in the quilt after committing suicide."
"But the door is locked from behind." Lu Weiwei confirmed again as she looked at the door lock that was knocked open.
