After discovering that Xu Peiwen was on guard, Gu Chen felt it was time to readjust the investigation plan.
Obviously, everyone's understanding of Xu Peiwen is obviously not that full.
Fortunately, Gu Chen discovered something fishy at the critical moment and decided to suspend the operation to ensure that no one would be exposed.
The vehicle arrived at the Furong Branch Sports Center Police Station.
At this moment, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong also happened to be resting here.
Seeing Gu Chen and others driving back, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong were standing at the door. They looked at each other and hurried over to greet them: "Gu Chen, how are your actions? Do you need us to keep an eye on Xu Peiwen?"
"It's not needed at the moment." After Gu Chen got off the car, he carried the equipment and walked directly to the police station office.
When Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong saw this, they immediately followed Gu Chen and walked into an office together.
"Gu Chen, are you successful? Why do you all look so unhappy?" Ding Liang obviously saw everyone's displeasure, and it didn't seem like he was successful.
Lu Weiwei said helplessly: "This Xu Peiwen is much more cunning than we thought."
"We were originally going to pry open his car door and install the equipment in his car, but who would have thought? He actually put hair in the gap of the car door to prevent anyone from sneaking into the car while he was away."
Taking a deep breath, Lu Weiwei went directly to the water dispenser and poured herself a glass of water.
When Huang Zunlong heard this, he also said in disbelief: "That means that Xu Peiwen was actually prepared for it?"
"Why do you need to say that?" After Yuan Shasha sat down, she couldn't help but sigh:
"This Xu Peiwen looks ordinary. He is the kind of person who can't be found in a crowd. Ordinary people can't be more ordinary."
"But who would have thought? Such a person, who was once a murderer and had been on the run for decades, could still be vigilant enough."
"If it were anyone else, he would definitely be slacking off. Perhaps this is the magic weapon that has kept him from being caught for so many years, and that is to be cautious."
"Isn't that right?" Officer Wang squeezed Lu Weiwei away, came to the water dispenser, poured himself a glass of water, and then said:
"Actually, I think Xu Peiwen is the kind of scheming master who must have rich experience in counter-reconnaissance."
After filling the cup with tea, Officer Wang walked in front of everyone holding the paper cup and said involuntarily:
"Think about it, this person started to be suspicious decades ago. How can he change his habits for so many years?"
"Perhaps the slightest relaxation could lead to his being caught. In order to survive, this guy has become a master."
After taking a few sips, Officer Wang continued: "So, Ding Liang, Huang Zunlong, our plan has changed. You go to the place where he parked his car at night to monitor this matter. I think we have to wait for a while."
"Now, we just have to stabilize him and not let him notice that someone is watching him around."
"Otherwise, with this guy's sensitivity, he will definitely run away, and we may be defeated by then."
"I understand, but you don't have to monitor me at night, so I leave it to Senior Brother He, right?" Huang Zunlong asked again.
Officer Wang nodded silently: "Just leave this kind of matter to He Junchao. There are surveillance cameras over there that can capture the general situation."
"It's just that I don't know much about the situation inside the car."
After thinking about it, Officer Wang asked Gu Chen again: "By the way, Gu Chen, the organizer should have some distributed materials, right?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded slightly, crossed his arms, and thought briefly: "But, we haven't found any materials that can be distributed yet."
"So the operation is temporarily suspended and we will look at the specific situation before we discuss it."
"In addition, I need to know what habits Xu Peiwen has when traveling around major cities doing business?"
"We didn't grasp this before. At critical moments, we may suffer losses. For example, we almost made a serious mistake at the entrance of the Beimen wet market."
"Leave this to Director Zhao. Let Director Zhao help coordinate with the brother cities and see if they can provide some surveillance information about Xu Peiwen."
"I just discovered Xu Peiwen late, so I guess it didn't attract much attention before," Officer Wang said.
"Then call Director Zhao immediately." Lu Weiwei said.
Officer Wang did not dare to slack off. After all, if he was given such a task, it would be embarrassing if he could not complete it.
After all, I thought it was an easy job before, as long as we relied on everyone's experience to monitor Xu Peiwen.
But now it seems that the problem is not as simple as imagined.
As time passed by, Gu Chen was also actively communicating with He Junchao.
During the phone call, He Junchao also reported the specific situation of Xu Peiwen in real time: "Gu Chen, this Xu Peiwen has now returned to the open space in the sports center. Just as you guessed, he is planning to set up camp there."
"Pay close attention to Xu Peiwen's specific developments and report any situation at any time," Gu Chen said.
"Understood, leave this to me."
…
…
7:20pm.
Gu Chen had had a phone call with He Junchao for the 10th time. During the phone call, He Junchao still reported that everything was normal and there was nothing abnormal.
Thinking that no one knew anything about Xu Peiwen's situation, Gu Chen was also thinking, should he take the initiative? Go over and communicate with Xu Peiwen?
Thinking that I would also have to serve as a security guard at the weekend food festival, why not use this status to ask Xu Peiwen about the specific situation.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen threw the finished lunch box into the trash can, stood up and said, "Everyone put on your police uniform, let's go over and meet this Xu Peiwen."
"Wearing a police uniform?" When Officer Wang heard this, he was also surprised: "Isn't this just a warning?"
"It doesn't count." Gu Chen said.
Lu Weiwei thought for two seconds and then said slowly: "Junior brother Gu, do you want to use your status as a security guard at the food festival to go over and ask Xu Peiwen if he needs help?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "After all, people have a place to stay at night, and he lives in a van, so it is normal for everyone to be concerned."
"If we let him stay alone in the public toilet and we don't ask him, it will make him suspicious. Isn't this the truth?"
"Yes." Seeing that Lu Weiwei understood her intention, Gu Chen also blurted out:
"Let's go over now and take the initiative to inquire about the relevant situation. Then, under the pretext of caring about his life, we can visit his car and put the monitoring equipment in it."
After a pause, Gu Chen said again: "Let's cooperate later and be careful to distract his attention."
"Yeah." After hearing this, Yuan Shasha also agreed: "This can be considered a method. At least we take the initiative and are much more flexible than installing equipment secretly."
"If you ignore it, it will indeed make Xu Peiwen suspicious."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha said again: "Senior Brother Gu, I think the method is feasible."
"Then I'll get the equipment." Lu Weiwei immediately started to open the drawer and take out the monitoring equipment.
After a short discussion, everyone immediately changed into their uniforms at the Sports Center Police Station.
At this moment, the time has also reached 7:30 in the evening.
Gu Chen and others drove the police car, first deliberately drove to the highway from another exit, then made a large circle and drove in from the entrance of the sports center on the other side.
In this way, it looks like a routine patrol.
Gu Chen deliberately drove the car through the path next to the van. When he passed the van, Gu Chen spotted Xu Peiwen in the car, who seemed to be preparing his dinner.
Everyone can see each other.
Of course, this is the effect Gu Chen wants. He has to come with you clearly and let you see the traces of the police car.
So Gu Chen quickly stopped the car after driving a short distance past the van, and directly backed up the police car until it was parallel to the van.
Gu Chen lowered the window, pretended to observe, and then said a few words to his teammates in the car. Everyone immediately opened the door and walked towards the van.
At this moment, Xu Peiwen happened to see everyone approaching him, and he suddenly became alert.
Gu Chen was very relaxed and casual when walking. He couldn't help but look at the situation on both sides, and then took the initiative to walk behind Xu Peiwen's vehicle.
At this moment, Xu Peiwen also opened the trunk of the car and put folding seats in the back row.
The food on the table is still steaming.
Gu Chen took the initiative to step forward, looked Xu Peiwen up and down, and asked curiously: "Why are you cooking here?"
"Oh, I usually cook in the back of the car." Xu Peiwen also smiled at Gu Chen and said earnestly.
Gu Chen walked to the back of the vehicle, pretended to observe the situation inside the vehicle, and couldn't help but say:
"You have too many things stuffed in your car. What's wrong? Are you using this place as your bedroom?"
The reason why Gu Chen said this was because he knew what he was asking.
Xu Peiwen smiled brightly and couldn't help but said: "Isn't that right? I usually live in my car."
"What's going on? Don't you live at home?" Yuan Shasha deliberately asked a silly question.
Xu Peiwen grinned: "I'm in the food business and I often travel around, so I don't have a fixed residence."
"If I live in a hotel, it's too expensive. I can't afford it. Living in a car can save a lot of money."
"Are you here to participate in the food festival?" Officer Wang followed Xu Peiwen's explanation and asked casually.
Xu Peiwen nodded silently: "Yes, I'm here to participate in the food festival."
Perhaps in order to make the police believe him, Xu Peiwen immediately put down the spoon in his hand, then lay down in the back of the vehicle, fidgeting with his hands, and quickly took out a packet of information and handed it to Officer Wang for inspection:
"This is the booth certificate I applied for."
Officer Wang took the information and checked it properly.
After a while, Officer Wang looked up at Xu Peiwen, then looked at the food festival booth information that Xu Peiwen handled, and said, "Your name is Zhao Pei? Are you from outside?"
"Yes, I also heard that the first food festival is going to be held in Jiangnan City, and the scale is quite large. I thought the flow of people should be okay, so I wanted to give it a try and wanted to come over and rent a booth and do some business.
.”
"That's it." After hearing Xu Peiwen's explanation, Officer Wang returned the information to Xu Peiwen and pretended to be concerned:
"But, are you used to living in a car? I think there are too many things in this car. As a mysophobic person, I feel uncomfortable just looking at it."
After the words fell, Officer Wang directly boarded the vehicle and began to visit the space of the vehicle because he was concerned about Xu Peiwen's accommodation environment.
Or did I press the portable mattress with my hand?
Xu Peiwen grinned and approached the vehicle, explaining: "I usually have a lot of things, mainly things for accommodation and daily necessities."
"But, I've been used to living there for so many years, so it's okay for me to have a smaller space. It's my living habit."
"Is this what you're eating tonight?" Xu Peiwen was still exchanging accommodation experiences with Officer Wang. Gu Chen's words attracted Xu Peiwen's attention again.
Xu Peiwen turned around and saw that Gu Chen was holding a spoon and scooping up some hot pot ingredients from the pot.
Xu Peiwen also grinned, returned to the folding table position again, and said with a smile:
"Yes, hot pot is convenient. I have a mobile power supply here. Just plug it in and cook it."
"It smells so good, it seems to taste pretty good." Lu Weiwei pretended to be attracted by the delicious food, couldn't help but get closer, and sniffed the delicious food in the pot with the tip of her nose.
For the sake of face, Xu Peiwen also grinned: "Haha, it's mainly the aroma of the ingredients. After all, I'm in the food business, so... do you want to have a taste?"
"Is that okay?" Seeing Xu Peiwen taking the initiative to invite, Lu Weiwei was also embarrassed.
But Xu Peiwen was very enthusiastic: "Actually, the food I cook is boiled. It's convenient and there are a lot of ingredients. You can eat it, but I still have a lot in the car?"
"Then forget it. This is your dinner. I ate it, so what do you eat?" Although Lu Weiwei is greedy, she also knows the rules.
But Xu Peiwen was also very enthusiastic. He took the initiative to pick up a plastic bowl and served Lu Weiwei a bowl. He also warmly entertained:
"Anyway, it's a lot. I have enough to eat. You can have a bowl and try it."
"Then how about I pay you some money later, and I'll buy this bowl." Lu Weiwei also pretended to be polite. Of course, the purpose was to distract Xu Peiwen.
After all, Comrade Lao Wang is still "visiting" this gourmet van, so Xu Peiwen cannot be allowed to focus all his attention on him.
Xu Peiwen smiled and waved his hand: "Oh, it's just a bowl of water, no need to pay, and I'm not a stingy person."
"Besides, the booth fee for your food festival in Jiangnan City is so low, much less than that in other cities. It is a boon to us merchants."
"What's wrong with me treating you to a few bowls of boiled water? It's normal!"
"Then since you said so, let me... have a taste?" Lu Weiwei picked up the plastic bowl and said.
Xu Peiwen raised his hands: "Try it, try it."
Seeing what Xu Peiwen said, Lu Weiwei stopped being polite and directly took out the disposable bamboo sticks on the folding table and started to enjoy the boiled delicacy.
At the same time, Gu Chen was always paying attention to Officer Wang's movements.
