When he heard Lu Weiwei pronounce the name "Zhou Wencai", Zhou Zhengnan's eyes were obviously full of fear and shock.
"This should be an old acquaintance of your father's, right? In other words, this should be an old acquaintance of yours, right?" Lu Weiwei said.
"You mean... the man who was burned to death was Zhou Wencai? Was... the Zhou Wencai I know?"
Zhou Zhengnan looked at everyone with suspicion in his eyes.
The name "Zhou Wencai" may have been heard more often back then, but now it seems to be a very strange existence to me, having not heard it for several years.
But associating Zhou Wencai with the body charred by the fire really shocked Zhou Zhengnan.
"Ahem." Officer Wang coughed twice and couldn't help but said: "Zhou Wencai is the former chairman of Wencai Xia Co., Ltd."
"Later, his company failed to manage well and went bankrupt. From then on, Zhou Wencai disappeared. However, he should be familiar to your Zhou family, right?"
"That's right." After hearing Officer Wang's words, Zhou Zhengnan nodded silently and agreed, "Zhou Wencai, our Zhou family is indeed very familiar with him."
"Because he is a sworn enemy of my old man. We both started our business in the same place, so we are in a competitive relationship."
"It's just that my old man is better at business than he is, but he focuses on charity."
After a pause, Zhou Zhengnan continued: "You also know that as a businessman, you must first pursue profits first. If your company does not make money, then doing charity is just doing it once and less once."
"And if your company can always make money, have good accounts, and a steady stream of cash flow, then you can do whatever charity you want."
Shaking his head, Zhou Zhengnan also sighed helplessly: "Anyway, our Zhou family doesn't like him very much. After all, he has conflicts."
"Then are you familiar with this Zhou Wencai?" Gu Chen asked him.
Zhou Zhengnan shook his head: "I rarely interact with him, and my old man also said not to interact with Zhou Wencai's family. After all, people who work in the same industry are enemies."
"In the past, my old man could still regard Zhou Wencai's company as a competitor, but now, with the size of our Zhengnan Group, we don't even look down on his bankrupt company."
"When it comes to bankruptcy, it is a normal phenomenon and there is nothing to say."
From Zhou Zhengnan's words, Gu Chen also roughly understood that both of them had the same surname of Zhou, but the two families seemed to have deep conflicts.
This is consistent with what Zhou Wencai’s daughter Zhou Hui said.
But Gu Chen also discovered from Zhou Zhengnan's words that Zhou Zhengnan didn't know Zhou Wencai very clearly.
The reason is very simple. Zhou Jiayou does not allow his son Zhou Zhengnan to have any contact with Zhou Wencai's family.
Therefore, it seems unrealistic for Zhou Zhengnan to know more about Zhou Wencai.
After thinking about it, Gu Chen felt that he still had to let Zhou Zhengnan lead the way to find his old man to understand the situation, so he got straight to the point:
"Since you don't know much about Zhou Wencai, we hope you can take us to meet your old man."
"The two of them have known each other for many years. Although they are both competitors, they definitely know each other relatively well."
Looking up at Zhou Zhengnan, Gu Chen added: "Now, Zhou Wencai is burned to death for no apparent reason. There may be some hidden secret behind this."
"Is there... another secret?" After hearing what Gu Chen said, there seemed to be something in it, so Zhou Zhengnan immediately asked again:
"Comrade police, what is going on? Why was Zhou Wen burned to death? Hasn't he disappeared for several years?"
"I haven't even heard any news about him in the past few years, but why was he burned to death?"
Zhou Zhengnan seemed to have many questions in his mind.
Although Zhou Wencai is not related to him, he has been his father's business rival for many years.
It is indeed incredible to get such a result now.
Therefore, when Gu Chen said this, Zhou Zhengnan also wanted to know, what has Zhou Wencai been doing all these years?
Gu Chen sighed quietly and said truthfully: "Zhou Wencai has been living a wandering life in the streets of Jiangnan City in the past few years."
"Wandering? Is he Zhou Wencai?" Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Zhou Zhengnan was completely confused.
He thought that after Zhou Wencai went bankrupt, he might choose to live in seclusion to avoid debt.
But after all, Zhou Wencai had a rich family back then. Even if the company went bankrupt, he could fully cope with the debts by using the company's fixed assets and some of his own fixed assets to pay off the debts.
But Zhou Zhengnan never expected that his competitor Zhou Wencai, who had given his father a headache back then, would actually become a homeless man after going bankrupt?
"It's incredible, right? When we learned his identity, we were also shocked." Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and shook her head and sighed:
"However, this person always has his back, and Zhou Wencai's character should be very complicated, because we have learned about some of his past events and found that he is also a tragic figure."
"Furthermore, according to our investigation of the fire scene, there is something fishy about Zhou Wencai's death. That's why we want to ask your father about the situation. After all, your father, Zhou Jiayou, should be the person who knows Zhou Wencai best."
"What's weird? You mean... Zhou Wen was set on fire and burned to death?" After hearing this, Zhou Zhengnan suddenly realized.
It seems that the police came to look for my old man this time just for this matter.
Officer Wang also nodded in acquiescence: "Yes, Zhou Wencai's death was a bit strange, but after all, we don't know much about his past."
"Especially because Zhou Wencai has been living a wandering life in the past few years, and his network of relationships has long been disconnected. Even his family can't find him."
"But now, he was burned to death in such a confused way. We suspect it is related to his enemies and want to know something about Zhou Wencai's past."
As soon as he heard Officer Wang say "enemy", Zhou Zhengnan's eyes suddenly widened and he quickly cleared the air and said:
"Police...comrade police, Zhou Wencai and our family did have conflicts in the past, but they were all normal business practices in the past."
"It is said that colleagues in the industry are enemies. This is normal. But now our Zhengnan Group's development scale is far beyond that of Zhou Wencai's company. His company's industry, even if you look up, you may not be able to see us.
Zhengnan Group.”
"In this case, Zhou Wencai is bankrupt and has been homeless for several years. We at Zhengnan Group, including my old man, have absolutely no need to harm him."
"So this enemy is definitely not our family, absolutely not."
"We didn't say it was your home." Yuan Shasha on the side saw that Zhou Zhengnan was still in a hurry this time, so she reminded her:
"We just said that we suspected that Zhou Wencai's death might be related to his enemies, but we didn't say it was your family."
"We just want to find your old man and learn something about him. After all, Zhou Wen has only disappeared for a few years, and social relations have long been severed. We can only find out about him from his old acquaintances."
After thinking about it, Yuan Shasha added: "Of course, the 'old acquaintance' mentioned here is not necessarily his friend, but can also be his former competitor, such as your father Zhou Jiayou."
"Well……"
Feeling that the police were right to consider this aspect, Zhou Zhengnan hesitated for a moment and then said: "Okay, I'll contact the old man, but since my old man retired, he usually has no fixed place to live."
"Sometimes I'm at home, sometimes I go to my friends. Anyway, I'll call and ask."
"Then it's hard work." Gu Chen said.
Zhou Zhengnan picked up his mobile phone and started to dial the number, but the phone was always turned off, which made Zhou Zhengnan a little embarrassed.
After all, four policemen were watching, and he couldn't contact his old man, which felt a little unjustifiable.
After calling to no avail, Zhou Zhengnan dialed another number.
Not long after, the call was connected, and Zhou Zhengnan immediately asked: "Aunt Liu, where is the old man?"
"What? You don't know either? How could you not know? Hmm, did he say anything to you? What? Okay, I understand, um, okay."
After several responses, Zhou Zhengnan hung up the phone, looked at Gu Chen and the others and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, comrade police, my old man...he is missing."
"Disappeared?" Lu Weiwei heard this and said angrily: "He is your father, why is he missing?"
"I don't know either?" Zhou Zhengnan shook his head and said with a puzzled look on his face: "I heard from my nanny that the old man went out a few days ago and hasn't come back yet."
"You went out a few days ago?" When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly felt a little strange.
Zhou Zhengnan was afraid that Gu Chen would misunderstand, so he immediately explained: "It's like this, my old man likes to walk around after he retires."
"Sometimes, I would go out without saying hello and stay with friends for a few days."
"So my nanny usually gets anxious when she can't contact the old man, but the old man will come back on his own in a few days."
"So when we went out this time, the nanny at home said that my old man was going to meet an old friend, so the nanny didn't pay attention. Maybe the old man was at a friend's house."
"On what specific day did you go out?" Gu Chen quickly asked again.
"The day before yesterday, right?" Zhou Zhengnan said.
"The day before yesterday? But the fire happened in these two days." Lu Weiwei also started to make connections based on the clues provided by Zhou Zhengnan.
When Zhou Zhengnan heard this, his expression was particularly embarrassing.
After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the old man doesn't go out in the morning or at night, but he went out in the past few days when his rival Zhou Wencai got into trouble.
And now I can't even get through the phone, which is tantamount to making the police suspicious.
It was a bit overwhelming to think about it, but Zhou Zhengnan still tried his best to defend his old man and said: "Comrade police, my old man must have gone to hang out with friends, and his cell phone must have run out of battery."
"I'll call him again after a while, and I'll definitely be able to get through."
"But we don't have so much time." Gu Chen told the truth, and then added: "Your nanny doesn't know where Zhou Jiayou has gone? Then is there anyone else who is familiar with your father Zhou Jiayou who knows his whereabouts?"
"Uh..." Zhou Zhengnan hesitated for a few seconds, then shook his head:
"This is the nanny in the family. This nanny also watched me grow up. My mother passed away early, so Aunt Liu has always been taking care of me."
"It can be said that if even my nanny Aunt Liu doesn't know about it, then no one else should know about it."
"After all, my old man will explain everything to Aunt Liu in advance."
"Understood." After hearing what Zhou Zhengnan said, Gu Chen also recorded the nanny Aunt Liu in the book and said:
"In order to find your old man as soon as possible, I suggest you take us home to check the situation."
"Uh..." Zhou Zhengnan resisted a little, but in this situation, if he refused, it would be tantamount to saying that there was something wrong with his family.
After all, a human life is involved.
Now Zhou Zhengnan is not sure whether Zhou Wencai's death has anything to do with his old man.
If so, taking the police to investigate would obviously put the old man in trouble.
But looking back, Zhou Zhengnan felt that his old man was not stupid.
In the past few years, Zhou Wencai, the old man didn't even have to look at him.
Do you need to take him seriously as a homeless person? Obviously not.
But with such a homeless man living on the street, is it necessary for my old man to harm him? I feel like the answer is no.
So after weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Zhengnan nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll take you to my house to have a look. As for whether you can find my old man, that's your business."
"Thank you for your cooperation." Seeing Zhou Zhengnan finally relent, Lu Weiwei was also relieved.
Although some incidents occurred during the investigation, it can at least be seen that Zhou Jiayou may have a certain connection with Zhou Wencai's death.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just relying on Zhou Jiayou's mysterious disappearance in the past few days, it is difficult for him to rule out suspicion.
Originally, everyone was still worried about the disconnection of Zhou Wencai's network of connections due to his wandering career in recent years.
Zhou Jiayou's disappearance during a sensitive time is very intriguing.
Later, at the request of Gu Chen and others, Zhou Zhengnan came downstairs to the company headquarters and led the way in his red Ferrari.
Gu Chen followed closely behind in a police car with license plate number AE86.
The two cars drove through the old city and came to the Ring Road. Then they passed the Ring Road, passed through the Furong Tunnel, and arrived at a tourist resort.
Not long after exiting the tunnel, the red Ferrari drove to the right.
This is an upscale residential community.
All buildings are built around a lake.
A variety of single-family, duplex and townhouses can be found everywhere.
It is surrounded by green trees and high-end plants.
The first impression you get is that of a wealthy residential area.
After communicating with the man in exquisite security uniform at the door, the security guard opened the underground parking lot gate.
Gu Chen drove closely behind him, and together they arrived at the underground garage.
The vehicles here are generally high-end, including many sports cars.
After Zhou Zhengnan turned left, he parked the car at the end of a passage.
Gu Chen parked directly next to Zhou Zhengnan's sports car.
After closing the car door, Zhou Zhengnan invited him and said, "This is where my old man will live after he retires."
"He has been busy all his life, and now he really likes peace and quiet, so he moved to this quiet place to retire."
"I can tell, the environment is pretty good." Lu Weiwei didn't know much about this Feng Shui treasure land.
I didn’t even see the community’s sign at the door, so I asked out of curiosity: “By the way, what’s the name of your community? Why is there no community sign at the gate?”
"Haha." After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Zhou Zhengnan led everyone to his home and explained to everyone:
"Our community is called Jiangnan City Wenge Community. It has a rather low-key name. Because it is a high-end residential area, the residents here generally have very high requirements."
"Originally, the name seemed a bit unimpressive to everyone, but the signboard at the entrance was not very high-end either."
"So many residents feel that this gate makes them lose face, so they ask the developer to redesign the sign with a high-end one."
"No, the previous old door sign has been removed. Now the custom-made high-end door and supporting modules have not been shipped yet, so there is no name at the door."
"So that's it?" Listening to Zhou Zhengnan's explanation, Lu Weiwei also felt that rich people really care about face.
While talking, Zhou Zhengnan also led everyone to his villa, then opened the courtyard door and led everyone in.
An old lady wearing nanny clothes suddenly frowned, walked out of the room door quickly, stood at the door and asked curiously: "Zhengnan, what's going on? Why are the police here?"
"I'm here to see the old man." Zhou Zhengnan led Gu Chen and others inside, and also told the nanny: "Aunt Liu, go make me some cups of tea."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, the old lady named Aunt Liu turned around and went to the restaurant.
When Yuan Shasha saw this, she asked him out of curiosity: "Mr. Zhou Zhengnan, is this the only nanny in your family?"
"That's right." Zhou Zhengnan sat on the sofa and nodded in agreement: "Aunt Liu has been in our family for many years, so we can be considered a family."
"The main reason is that Aunt Liu's cooking is good, and my father is also very picky about the taste of food, but Aunt Liu's cooking can just satisfy my father's taste buds."
"So, Aunt Liu has stayed in our home for so many years."
Glancing at Aunt Liu who was making tea for everyone, Zhou Zhengnan also said calmly: "But Aunt Liu is getting older now. She will probably retire next year after working this year. I am also helping my old man find a new nanny.
"
While talking, Aunt Liu had already brought the brewed tea to everyone.
Gu Chen thanked her and saw Aunt Liu turning around to leave, so he stopped her directly: "Aunt Liu, sit here, we have something to ask you."
"Ah?" Aunt Liu suddenly stopped when she heard this, and looked at Zhou Zhengnan at a loss.
Zhou Zhengnan was crossing his legs and drinking tea in his hand. He nodded silently and said, "Aunt Liu, just sit here for now. Whatever the police comrades ask you, just say it. Don't be nervous."
"Okay... okay." After hearing this, Aunt Liu sat directly opposite Gu Chen, touched a few silver hairs on her temples with her hands, and said lightly:
"Usually, Mr. Zhou will ask a lawyer to talk about anything, so I haven't had much dealings with the police, so I'm not used to it."
"It's okay, we are mainly here to find out about Zhou Jiayou's situation." Officer Wang also got straight to the point.
It feels like this huge villa, with only Aunt Liu and Zhou Jiayou living here, feels too deserted.
It's no wonder that after Zhou Jiayou retired, he wanted to go out and walk around.
Aunt Liu nodded silently: "If you have anything to ask, just ask."
"Very good." Gu Chen turned on the law enforcement recorder, took out the transcript and asked her: "You said, Zhou Jiayou left the villa the day before yesterday, right?"
"Yes." Aunt Liu nodded silently.
"What time is it exactly?" Gu Chen asked again.
"What time exactly? It seems...it seems to be around 7 o'clock in the morning, right? After breakfast, the old man drove out in his newly purchased electric car."
"Did he tell you anything before he went out?" Lu Weiwei asked quickly.
Aunt Liu was stunned for two seconds, and then said thoughtfully: "Explanation? It seems that there is no explanation. When he left, I asked him, where is Mr. Zhou going?"
"He said he was going to meet a friend, and then...and he hasn't come back yet."
"Can't get through on the phone?" Officer Wang asked.
Aunt Liu also nodded silently and echoed: "Yes, he didn't come home very late that night. I felt uneasy, so I called him to see when he would be back."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "As a result, I couldn't get through at all on the phone, and the phone was always turned off."
"Maybe there's no power?" Zhou Zhengnan said.
Aunt Liu nodded and said, "Maybe? But the phone is out of power, so it can be charged. If you don't bring a charger, you can borrow one, right?"
"Anyway, Mr. Zhou is good at everything, but he is not willing to disclose his whereabouts, which makes me don't know how to cook."
"The night before yesterday, the phone was already unreachable?" Gu Chen recorded these in the record, raised his head and asked Aunt Liu:
"Aunt Liu, what about the next few days? Have you received a call from Zhou Jiayou?"
"No, since then, Mr. Zhou has been unable to be contacted," Aunt Liu said.
Hearing this, Lu Weiwei also hurriedly asked her: "Then you can't contact him, Zhou Jiayou, so why don't you call the police to find him? Or you can inform Zhou Zhengnan and send someone to look for him."
"Haha." After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Aunt Liu laughed, shook her head and said, "Comrade policewoman, you don't know the temper of our old Mr. Zhou."
"He is a bit neurotic. He usually thinks of whatever he thinks of. When he wants to go out, he can immediately take some luggage and go out, and he can stay there for several days."
"Anyway, I don't ask about his whereabouts, and I don't dare to ask about him. Zhengnan should know this best."
After finishing her words, Aunt Liu looked at Zhou Zhengnan.
Zhou Zhengnan drank tea and nodded silently: "Yes, my old man has this habit. He especially hates people asking about his whereabouts."
"In those days, many partners wanted to meet my old man and talk about various cooperation matters."
"So my old man has a headache, because sometimes, even if he goes to play golf with his friends, he will meet business people who want to cooperate with my old man on the golf course, which is quite annoying."
"Therefore, from that period onwards, he strictly prohibited the company's secretaries from telling others his whereabouts privately."
"From that time on, even when Aunt Liu asked him about his whereabouts, he would just say what he was going for, but where exactly he was going? Maybe he wouldn't say."
"Such a weird character?" Yuan Shasha was quite curious when she heard this: "Then your father, Zhou Jiayou, usually doesn't disclose his whereabouts when he goes out. The key is that he can't be contacted by phone?"
"Isn't that right?" Zhou Zhengnan turned to look at Aunt Liu on one side, and said without complaining: "My old man changed his number after he retired."
"Aunt Liu, I, and a few friends know his current mobile phone number. Generally speaking, he doesn't want to be harassed after he retires."
"Anyway, he has a very weird personality. Anyway, I don't really like my old man's personality."
"Let's not talk about this for now." It felt like Zhou Zhengnan was rambling here and there, but he didn't explain clearly.
So Gu Chen raised his head and asked Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu, Zhou Jiayou usually calls you when he is away for a few days, right?"
"Yes." Aunt Liu nodded silently and agreed, "I usually call him at night to ask him when he will come back, and he will give a brief explanation."
"After all, Mr. Zhou sometimes brings friends back the next day, so if friends are coming, I need to prepare some ingredients for the guests in advance, so I will call to confirm every night."
"But Zhou Jiayou's departure this time was wrong, right?" Officer Wang said.
Aunt Liu nodded silently: "It's strange to say that Mr. Zhou's mobile phone is usually turned on. Even if the call cannot be reached for a day, he will contact me after charging."
"But this time..."
Speaking of this, Aunt Liu also shook her head: "But this time it's quite strange. After I left, I couldn't get through the phone for several days."
"But then again, this is normal operation, because Mr. Zhou has this kind of character, so I can't ask too many questions."
"If he wants to bring friends home, he will definitely notify me in advance."
Clenching her hands tightly, Aunt Liu said nervously: "But not this time, I can't get in touch."
"This is a bit abnormal." After hearing Aunt Liu's explanation, Gu Chen also raised his own question: "Could the friend Zhou Jiayou went to meet be Zhou Wencai?"
"Pfft!" As soon as Gu Chen finished his words, Zhou Zhengnan choked on the tea he had just drank in his mouth, and quickly waved his hand to persuade:
"Officer Gu, don't make any assumptions. Maybe it's a coincidence. My old man may just be having a party with friends."
"Then why can't the phone call go through?" Officer Wang said.
"This..." Although what he just said was reasonable, Zhou Zhengnan was speechless when faced with Officer Wang's question.
Because the police were right, they couldn't be contacted by phone, maybe there was a problem.
But during the period after Zhou Jiayou left the villa, a fire broke out in the debris warehouse of the railway freight yard, and Zhou Wencai was burned to coke.
Moreover, according to the investigation by Gu Chen and others, there is a high probability that Zhou Wencai was killed first and then set on fire.
This was used to take advantage of the cover of the fire to destroy the corpses and eliminate traces.
Obviously, the murderer was very successful.
When the firefighters found Zhou Wencai's body, Zhou Wencai was already a pile of cooked charcoal.
The whole body was burned beyond recognition and looked very scary.
But it happened that at this time, Gu Chen led someone to investigate. Zhou Zhengnan's father, Zhou Jiayou, was also Zhou Wencai's mortal enemy, but he disappeared at this time.
Now, the atmosphere has become heavier and heavier with the disappearance of Zhou Jiayou.
Although Zhou Zhengnan had various reasons, it was difficult for him to answer such a question.
"Officer Gu, although I don't know where my old man went exactly? But I'm sure that there will be no intersection between him and Zhou Wencai."
"I hope so." Gu Chen closed the notebook and sighed:
"Now your father is highly suspected of Zhou Wencai's death, but..."
Seeing that Zhou Zhengnan still wanted to refute, Gu Chen stopped him and said, "But this is just a suspicion. As for the truth of the matter? We will investigate further."
"Officer Gu, I feel relieved with your words." Seeing that Gu Chen also commented objectively, Zhou Zhengnan also broke into a cold sweat and said:
"I really don't know the whereabouts of my old man. If I want to know, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible."
"Okay." Gu Chen nodded silently, feeling that the clues he could get from Aunt Liu were very limited, so he could only stop here.
So after Gu Chen recorded the last bit of information completely, he asked Zhou Zhengnan: "What is the license plate number of the electric car driven by your father, Zhou Jiayou?"
"Uh... the number ends with 4 and 2. This is his usual car, a white car."
"Very good." After Gu Chen recorded the last message completely, he stood up and shook hands with Zhou Zhengnan to thank him: "Thank you very much for your cooperation. Please also contact us as soon as possible after contacting Zhou Jiayou."
After he finished speaking, Gu Chen handed two business cards to Zhou Zhengnan and Aunt Liu, also reminding him: "This has the landline number of our office. Once you contact Zhou Jiayou, please contact us immediately."
"Will do."
After hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhou Zhengnan and Aunt Liu almost spoke in unison.
Afterwards, after everyone exchanged a few words in the living room, Zhou Zhengnan thought that Gu Chen was about to leave, but Gu Chen suddenly stopped, looked at a bedroom on the first floor and said, "Zhou Jiayou lives on the first floor, right?"
?”
"Yes, Mr. Zhou lives there." Aunt Liu also nodded in agreement.
"Can you let us go in and have a look before we leave?" Gu Chen said.
Aunt Liu grinned: "Of course."
After the words fell, Aunt Liu walked directly to the door and pushed the ajar door open.
Everyone also followed in.
Generally speaking, Zhou Jiayou's bedroom is decorated in a simple style, and there is a partition door connecting the bedroom to the study.
Gu Chen pushed open the partition door and continued to the study.
At this moment, bookshelves are filled with various business books and autobiographies of various business elites.
The desk is empty and clean.
Gu Chen rummaged around in the study for a few times, then turned around and asked Aunt Liu, "What does the old man usually do in the study?"
"Read a book." Aunt Liu said.
"Before leaving, did you notice anything unusual about him?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Uh..." Aunt Liu was speechless for a moment. After thinking over and over again, she replied:
"There is nothing unusual. He usually talks a lot outside, but rarely talks at home."
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently, sat directly on Zhou Jiayou's chair, and opened the desk drawer.
At this moment, all kinds of exquisite notebooks inside occupy almost half of the long drawer.
Gu Chen then flipped through several books, almost all of which were about records in shopping malls.
Perhaps for people of Zhou Jiayou's generation, their recording method may be more inclined to use the most traditional handwritten notebook.
Because computers are obviously too advanced for people like Zhou Jiayou.
And Zhou Jiayou should also understand that computers are sometimes unreliable.
If the company's confidential documents are suddenly lost due to a computer virus, it will have catastrophic consequences for the entire Zhengnan Group.
Gu Chen put down the notebook in his hand and started to pick up another one and read through it.
Gu Chen, who has a master-level memory, flips through notes very quickly, and it basically doesn't take long to finish reading a book.
But so far, Gu Chen has not discovered anything about Zhang Wencai from these notes.
Until Gu Chen opened the notebook to the middle position, he suddenly found a handmade bookmark between the pages of the notebook.
The painting on the bookmark is a landscape. It is basically certain that it was painted with a pen and some colored paint.
And because this handmade rectangular bookmark is quite old, the color of the bookmark has also become a little yellow.
Moreover, the red ribbon tied in the small round hole drilled with an awl right above the bookmark has also faded badly.
But even so, Gu Chen could still tell that it was a red ribbon.
Because people in that era generally used red ribbons to tie small holes on bookmarks.
"This handmade bookmark is very beautiful and very special." Gu Chen held the bookmark in his hand and curiously asked Zhou Zhengnan:
"What's painted on this?"
"Uh! I...I don't know, isn't it just an ordinary bookmark? It feels like some scenery." Zhou Zhengnan said.
"Did your father Zhou Jiayou paint it?" Lu Weiwei asked.
Zhou Zhengnan was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know about that. Anyway, I saw it when I was a child, but I'm not interested in it and I won't ask."
"Okay." Gu Chen nodded silently, put the bookmark in it again, and continued to flip through the remaining pages.
After all the notebooks in the equal-length drawer had been flipped through, Gu Chen stacked the notebooks neatly and closed the drawer again.
"Do you have any questions?" Zhou Zhengnan said.
"Not yet." Gu Chen said casually, and then walked towards the door.
After Zhou Zhengnan saw off the guests, everyone returned to the parking lot.
Before Gu Chen drove, he repeatedly warned Zhou Jiayou to contact the police as soon as possible after returning home.
Then he drove back to Furong Branch.
…
…
11:40 am.
Seeing that it was almost time to eat, He Junchao immediately found the white electric car with the license plate number ending in four and two at Gu Chen's request, and immediately reminded him:
"Gu Chen, I have found the car you are looking for."
"Where?" Gu Chen turned around and asked.
"In... Xiaoxu Auto Home, it's a car maintenance store." He Junchao said.
"What about Zhou Jiayou?" Officer Wang asked him quickly.
He Junchao shook his head: "From the roadside surveillance, we can only see Zhou Jiayou driving the vehicle to the entrance of this maintenance shop and then leaving alone."
"In this place, roads are being built everywhere. Even the traffic lights are temporary solar-powered mobile traffic lights. I can only use the only remaining camera at a far away intersection to capture this information."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Then this Zhou Jiayou didn't come back to pick up the car?" Lu Weiwei also asked.
He Junchao shook his head: "No, the car seems to have been parked at that 'Xiao Xu Auto Home' after maintenance. It has always been there."
"Strange." Gu Chen also frowned after hearing He Junchao's words.
You know, if there is something fishy about Zhou Jiayou's mobile phone being shut down continuously in the past few days, then Zhou Jiayou's car was also left in the car maintenance store for several days, which will undoubtedly increase Zhou Jiayou's suspicion.
Now, not only is Zhou Jiayou's mobile phone unable to be connected, but even his car has not been retrieved.
Everyone looked at each other and felt that Zhou Jiayou's disappearance might have some connection with Zhou Wencai's death.
After all, if according to normal logic, Zhou Wencai's death was caused by murder, then the murderer must have a grudge against Zhou Wencai.
So according to this reasoning, Zhou Jiayou is obviously one of the suspects.
But now, everyone went to investigate Zhou Jiayou, but Zhou Jiayou disappeared mysteriously.
Not only could the phone not be connected, but the vehicle had not been retrieved either.
Obviously, Gu Chen's team cannot take Zhou Jiayou's disappearance lightly.
"Senior Brother Gu, this Zhou Jiayou must be a suspect. How could there be such a coincidence? Oh, Zhou Wencai was murdered in the past few days and burned into a charred corpse. However, Zhou Jiayou disappeared in the past few days. Could it be that these two people
Did you get together?"
"It's possible." Gu Chen crossed his hands and said solemnly: "These two people may be related in some way, but at present, there is no definite evidence."
"Furthermore, Senior Brother He can't find Zhou Jiayou's specific whereabouts, but roads are being built in that area, but I don't understand, why does Zhou Jiayou leave other stores that are not building roads? But he insists on going
Go to this road construction store?”
Looking at the specific address link sent by He Junchao, Gu Chen said again:
"You know, the location of this 'Xiao Xu Auto Home' maintenance store is not very good, and it is even a little remote."
"And in some of the better roads nearby, there are car repair and maintenance shops everywhere, but he didn't go there."
"Junior Brother Gu." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Is this the case? For example, Zhou Jiayou did it on purpose?"
"He just wants to find a store that is building a road to avoid nearby surveillance? This way our police will not be able to find his whereabouts later, what do you think?"
"It's very likely that is the case." Gu Chen has also handled many similar cases. It can be said that avoiding city surveillance is a required course for many criminals.
Obviously, Zhou Jiayou also had this motive.
After thinking for a few seconds, Gu Chen immediately picked up the phone and dialed Ding Liang's phone number.
Not long after, the call was connected, and Gu Chen asked directly: "Ding Liang, where are you now?"
"On the way back to Furong Branch, I'm rushing back for lunch. What's up? Are you busy?" Ding Liang asked on the phone.
Gu Chen said bluntly: "Then don't come back now, help go to a place to investigate."
"What?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, Ding Liang looked confused and said, "It's already lunch time. How about I help you investigate in the afternoon before I finish lunch?"
"Can't wait." Gu Chen knew that he was a little sorry for handling the case during the meal, but time was urgent now. If Zhou Jiayou's whereabouts were not found, it seemed that the case would reach a dead end.
So Gu Chen said again: "Okay, you come back for dinner now, and I will take someone over to investigate."
"No!" As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Ding Liang on the other end of the phone retorted directly:
"Looking at how anxious you are, I guess you have to go now. Okay, let's turn around now and have lunch outside. Please send us the specific address quickly. What is the specific investigation? Just tell me and I will help you figure it out.
"
After all, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong are Gu Chen's roommates and know Gu Chen's style of handling cases.
The current task seemed to be imminent, and it felt like Gu Chen was racing against time, so Ding Liang agreed quite readily.
