Gu Chen was determined to find the murderer this time, especially since He Junlong's body was found in the basement of this abandoned building.
This made Gu Chen even more convinced that the murderer was actually hiding nearby, and He Junlong became his tool to silence him.
The murderer was very clever. He first used the fingerprints left by He Junlong on the pen and paper to let Gu Chen find out something fishy.
Then, he wanted Gu Chen to turn his attention to He Junlong.
But this time Gu Chen was not fooled. Instead, he saw the flaw and found this place based on the clues.
At this moment, Gu Chen first came to the location where He Junlong's body was found.
Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong have now completed taking photos of the body to collect evidence.
When Gu Chen arrived, several people quickly made way for a passage.
"Gu Chen, we are here." Huang Zunlong pointed at He Junlong's body in the sand and said.
Gu Chen knelt down to inspect the body, and soon discovered that the neck of the body had indeed been pierced by a sharp blade.
From the wound, Gu Chen could tell that it was probably a dagger.
Since this was a one-shot kill, He Junlong had almost no time to react.
Since the body was put into a sack, the covering of sand and gravel did not have much impact on the body.
After confirming the identity of the deceased, Gu Chen also stood up and said to the other police officers outside the basement:
"Using this place as the center, I will conduct a thorough search of every abandoned house here. If anyone is found hiding here, no matter who it is? Arrest him immediately."
"Yes!" Following Gu Chen's order, everyone immediately responded in unison.
Subsequently, according to everyone's previous communication and deployment, all search police officers immediately started searching the surrounding buildings in teams of two.
Gu Chen, with the help of Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, transported the body outside and waited for Gao Chuanfeng's forensic team to come and deal with it.
Officer Wang looked around and marveled: "This murderer is really a genius. He really took great pains to use such an old building as a hiding place."
"He may have thought of a way to escape, but God did not follow his wishes and accidentally stepped on the nail, causing all his plans to fail."
With a faint sigh, Officer Wang added: "The guy's soles are injured now, and the vehicle is also left over there. I guess he can't move even now and is somewhat trapped in a cocoon."
"That's what he brought upon himself." Lu Weiwei took a deep breath and said with annoyance: "Look at how he stabbed Uncle Zhang."
"Now he has killed the substitute He Junlong again. I think this guy had a premeditated plan and had already thought of a way to get rid of Uncle Zhang and this He Junlong."
"To be honest, the viciousness of this guy is beyond imagination, especially the knife that stabbed He Junlong in the throat. I estimate that it was exactly the same as the one that stabbed Uncle Zhang in the chest."
"If Uncle Zhang hadn't been vigilant, maybe he would have been stabbed in the same throat as He Junlong."
Hearing Lu Weiwei say this, Gu Chen suddenly felt a sore nose.
Thinking about the scene when Zhang Jingde was stabbed in the chest by the murderer when he was searching the abandoned factory, Gu Chen couldn't calm down.
You know, the murderer showed no mercy at all. Essentially, he wanted to kill Zhang Jingde and silence him.
Although Zhang Jingde is still in the ICU ward of the hospital, he is theoretically close to death, which makes Gu Chen nervous all the time.
I was afraid that I would suddenly hear a call from my parents from the hospital telling me the bad news about Zhang Jingde.
Therefore, now that he has not received a call from his parents, Gu Chen feels a little calmer.
But if he received the bad news from his parents on the phone, Gu Chen felt that he might not be able to bear such a terrible blow.
As the search team continued to investigate the nearby area, Gu Chen stood at the door of the abandoned building, waiting quietly.
At this moment, a commercial vehicle from the city bureau's technical department drove up. Gao Chuanfeng and two forensic assistants got out of the car with body bags and hurriedly came to Gu Chen.
Seeing Gu Chen sitting blankly on an abandoned marble stool, Gao Chuanfeng was about to say hello to Gu Chen, but was immediately stopped by Lu Weiwei.
"What's wrong?" Gao Chuanfeng looked confused and asked Lu Weiwei in a low voice.
Lu Weiwei pulled Gao Chuanfeng aside and explained in a low voice: "Isn't this Junior Brother Gu's Uncle Zhang, that is, Zhang Jingde is still in the hospital with his life and death unknown? Senior Brother Gu's current mood may be a little bad."
Glancing secretly in the direction of Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei added: "I have never seen Gu Chen like this before. I have never seen such a fragile Gu Chen since he joined the work."
"Fragile?" After hearing Lu Weiwei use this word to describe the current Gu Chen, Gao Chuanfeng looked at Gu Chen carefully.
I found that Gu Chen had indeed lost his previous energy, especially Gu Chen's sharp eyes, which were so empty at this moment.
Gao Chuanfeng, who understood the situation, nodded silently and expressed his understanding: "I understand, I won't disturb him and let him be quiet for a while."
"Yeah." After listening to what Gao Chuanfeng said, Lu Weiwei pulled him to He Junlong's body and reminded him:
"The body is right here. You can take it away for examination."
"Yes." Gao Chuanfeng nodded silently, then waved to the two assistants beside him.
Two forensic assistants quickly fetched protective equipment.
Later, after doing a basic evidence collection and registration of the corpse at the scene, we obtained some pictures of the scene and information about the specific situation from Lu Weiwei.
Only then did they begin to put the body into a body bag, then put it into a commercial vehicle and prepare to drive away.
Before leaving, Gao Chuanfeng also walked up to Lu Weiwei and reminded her again: "By the way... Is Gu Chen really okay? It feels quite scary to see him like this."
"Anyway, until the murderer is caught, I don't think Junior Brother Gu's mood will be any better." Lu Weiwei glanced in the direction of Gu Chen and then looked away.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gao Chuanfeng made an "OK" sign language, then followed his two assistants, boarded the vehicle, and drove away.
In order not to disturb Gu Chen, Gao Chuanfeng also deliberately made the noise of the vehicle starting as quiet as possible.
Seeing that Gao Chuanfeng had left, Lu Weiwei came to Gu Chen's side, sat on another round marble stool, smiled at Gu Chen and said:
"Junior Brother Gu, the body has been taken away. You don't have to worry. Just leave these trivial matters to us."
"Yeah." Gu Chen's expression didn't fluctuate much, and he still had a cold face.
At this moment, the sky has become a little dark.
So Lu Weiwei turned on the police car's lights and illuminated the area.
At the same time, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha also walked over from another direction.
Seeing Officer Wang, Gu Chen quickly asked: "Brother Wang, how is the investigation going?"
"No suspicious person found." Officer Wang put the bright flashlight on the table, took out the police water bottle and took a sip of water.
Yuan Shasha on the side also quickly said: "We searched several bungalows over there and didn't find many abnormalities. We also didn't find anything after a blanket search."
"I can only say, take your time, I don't know about other groups..."
Just before Yuan Shasha finished speaking, everyone suddenly heard a violent movement coming from a certain direction not far away.
Because it is located in an area of abandoned houses, there are almost no residents.
Therefore, any small movement can be heard clearly here.
"There's a situation." Gu Chen stood up immediately and looked around.
Lu Weiwei pointed to one of the abandoned buildings and said, "The sound seems to be coming from there?"
"Take this guy with you and go take a look." Gu Chen couldn't bear it at this moment, so he took out his mechanical baton and rushed over with a strong flashlight.
Seeing this, other people also followed behind.
For a moment, everyone began to run quickly towards the moving area.
Because it was dark, and there were many abandoned buildings and various ruins here, everyone could only stop and go, trying to identify the direction based on short-term movements.
Yuan Shasha was responsible for calling the major groups in the work group, and most of the groups responded, except for the Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong groups who did not reply.
Yuan Shasha, who was following Gu Chen closely, quickly reported: "Brother Gu, basically all the major groups have responded, only a few groups have not."
"And the team searching near us is Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong's team..."
"They must have discovered something?" Before Yuan Shasha could finish her words, Gu Chen guessed that perhaps Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong had discovered something.
Everyone immediately became nervous.
Gu Chen took out his cell phone and dialed Ding Liang's phone number, but there was no answer.
This made Gu Chen's tense nerves become even heavier.
"What did Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong's team discover? There was so much movement just now, but now there is no movement. What are these people doing?" Gu Chen said.
Officer Wang frowned and suddenly noticed that there seemed to be several lights not far away.
So Officer Wang quickly pointed in the direction of the light source and reminded, "There is light over there."
One sentence instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Gu Chen didn't have time to think too much and immediately led everyone to run towards the light source.
At this moment, the direction of the light source seemed to have spotted Gu Chen's team, and several light sources suddenly shone over them.
The two groups of people quickly converged, and Gu Chen discovered that there was a suspicious person underneath Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong.
At this moment, the two people had cuffed the suspicious person's hands behind their backs, and their bodies were covered in dust.
Gu Chen asked: "What's going on?"
"We found a suspicious person sneaking around in the ruins. Ding Liang and I immediately chased him."
"But this guy ran away when he saw us, and even ran into the rubble."
"This guy took advantage of the cover of the ruins and fooled the two of us around."
"Fortunately, our two soldiers separated into two groups, so we blocked this guy in the middle."
"This guy tried to resist, but I used a mechanical baton to knock the weapon out of his hand. It was difficult to subdue him." After Huang Zunlong said this, he was still panting.
Gu Chen quickly asked: "Are you two injured?"
"Maybe just scratch some skin." Ding Liang looked at his dusty arms and said casually.
When Gu Chen heard this, he also patted Ding Liang on the shoulder, and then pointed a bright flashlight at the suspect lying on the ground.
Seeing the suspect lower his head, Gu Chen stood down and observed carefully. He found that this man had a face covered in dirt and looked like a beggar.
It's really hard to judge the other person's appearance just from these facial features.
So Gu Chen asked him: "Who are you? Why are you running?"
The other party seemed unwilling to cooperate and turned his head directly, seeming to be very resistant.
"Get him up." Gu Chen stood up and said.
Officer Wang immediately walked up to the other party and lifted the man lying on the ground directly.
Only then did everyone use the flashlight light to roughly see the man's specific appearance.
The tall and thin figure is basically consistent with the character described by the witness before.
Through surveillance, Gu Chen repeatedly observed the suspect who followed Zhang Jingde during those days, and was very sure that the man standing in front of him at this moment was the person he was looking for.
Gu Chen asked him: "Are you the person who stabbed the policeman at the abandoned factory yesterday?"
When the man heard this, he also looked at Gu Chen, but soon lowered his head, as if unwilling to answer.
After Gu Chen walked back and forth in front of the opponent twice, he also kept himself restrained enough and continued to ask:
"Who are you? Why are you following Zhang Jingde? Asking about Zhang Jingde's situation?"
"Also, was it you who killed He Junlong?"
Seeing that the other party still refused to answer, Huang Zunlong looked around, quickly ran to an area, put on white gloves, picked up a knife blade on the ground, walked to Gu Chen and said:
"Gu Chen, this is the weapon this guy used when he resisted arrest."
"It looks like the murder weapon used to assassinate He Junlong." Yuan Shasha said at the side.
Gu Chen also put on white gloves and held it in his hand for a closer look.
Thinking of the wound on He Junlong's neck, it was very consistent with the murder weapon, and there was even some bright red blood left on the handle of the dagger.
Gu Chen knew that this person was the murderer he was looking for.
With a heavy sigh, Gu Chen also said angrily: "It seems that it is really you. The person who has been meeting He Junlong frequently these days should be you, right?"
Glancing down at the opponent's legs, Gu Chen quickly asked: "Ding Liang, Huang Zunlong, this guy's legs..."
"He is lame. His right leg is lame. You can tell from the way he walks." Before Gu Chen could finish speaking, Huang Zunlong knew what Gu Chen meant and quickly informed Gu Chen of the specific situation.
At this time, Ding Liang immediately lifted the opponent's right leg and showed it in front of everyone.
The man was very resistant and kept waving his body to resist.
After holding the other person's right leg, Officer Wang directly took off the other person's shoes.
The moment they took off their socks, everyone discovered that the soles of the man's feet seemed to have been simply bandaged.
