The search work did not progress very quickly. Gu Chen required detailed inspection, so everyone searched every corner of the villa and tried their best not to miss any detail.
And this kind of blanket inspection quickly achieved miraculous results.
When Lu Weiwei was checking the bedroom on the second floor, she suddenly found an exquisite iron box under the bed.
Since the gap under the bed was very small, Lu Weiwei had no choice but to stand up and look around.
"Junior Brother Gu, there seems to be something under the bed, but I can't reach it."
When Gu Chen heard this, he immediately lay down on the ground and turned on the strong flashlight.
"There is an iron box." Gu Chen said.
"Yes." Lu Weiwei nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "It must be a very important thing to be able to hide this kind of iron box under the bed in the bedroom."
"But this thing, placed in the center under the bed, is simply out of reach."
"Let's see if there are any other things we can take out of this iron box." Gu Chen stood up and looked around.
Officer Wang swung out his mechanical baton and was about to give it a try, but as soon as he reached the gap, he was stuck in it.
Officer Wang looked embarrassed: "It doesn't seem to work. Why should the gap in the bed be so narrow?"
"Otherwise, how can we hide things?" Yuan Shasha also noticed everyone's embarrassment, and then began to look around.
When she saw a book placed on the side of the bedroom, Yuan Shasha reminded Gu Chen: "Brother Gu, what do you think of that book?"
Gu Chen looked back and immediately understood what Yuan Shasha meant, and immediately nodded in agreement: "Okay."
"Use a book?" Lu Weiwei turned around and instantly understood what Yuan Shasha meant. She immediately took the book in her hand and checked its thickness.
"Is it okay?" Gu Chen asked.
"It should be okay." Lu Weiwei squatted down, placed the book in the gap under the bed, and made a rough comparison.
Looking up at Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei confirmed: "The thickness of the book is slightly smaller than the gap under the bed. You can use the book to knock out the iron box."
"Then I'll trouble Senior Sister Lu." Seeing that the book met the requirements, Gu Chen also handed over the task to Lu Weiwei.
"I'm happy to oblige." Lu Weiwei grinned and immediately leaned down.
After comparing, it will slide quickly under the bed like water wasted in an instant.
The book was accelerated and passed directly through the bottom of the bed, knocking out a rectangular iron box hidden under the bed from the other end.
As the iron box hit the wall, it made a crisp sound, and everyone gathered around to see what happened.
Gu Chen opened the iron box with his hands wearing white gloves and found that there was a sponge cushion inside the iron box.
But above the sponge cushion, there was a small bag of white pills packed in a transparent bag.
Gu Chen just opened the bag, put it to the tip of his nose, smelled it, and immediately handed it over to Officer Wang who was standing aside.
Officer Wang took a look at the gourd and took a whiff of the pills. He couldn't help but sneeze, pointed at the pills and waved his hand and said, "This thing is contraband. I didn't expect this thing to be hidden in Zou Yuhua's house."
"If there is one, there are two." Seeing that his search had yielded results, Gu Chen was still overjoyed.
At least it shows that Zou Yuhua is contaminated with illegal drugs.
But does a big boss like Zou Yuhua only have such a small amount in his home? At least Gu Chen doesn't believe it.
But seeing that the search had to continue, Gu Chen turned to look at Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe at the door and said:
"You two, go down and bring Zou Yuhua up."
"Understood." The two nodded silently and quickly walked downstairs.
Not long after, Zou Yuhua was caught by two people and taken to the bedroom on the second floor.
Looking at Gu Chen and the bag of things in Gu Chen's hand, Zou Yuhua seemed to know something? At this moment, he could only lower his head and dare not say anything.
"Zou Yuhua, tell me, what is this?" Gu Chen held the white pouch in his palm.
Zou Yuhua looked up and pretended not to know, "I don't know."
"You don't know?" When Lu Weiwei heard this, she was immediately overjoyed and said angrily to Zou Yuhua:
"I said Zou Yuhua, you said you don't know? Then let me ask you, whose bedroom is this room?"
"I...mine." Although I don't want to admit it, the items placed here and various photo albums indicate that this is Zou Yuhua's bedroom.
"That's right." Seeing that Zou Yuhua still knew that this was his bedroom, Lu Weiwei immediately said:
"Then let me ask you, who usually sleeps in this big bed in the bedroom?"
Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, Zou Yuhua also took a deep breath, and then said: "Normally... I sleep here."
"Very good." Seeing that Zou Yuhua still knew the basics, Lu Weiwei continued to ask:
"Then I want to ask you, since this is your villa, your bedroom, and the big bed where you sleep, then you say you don't know about this bag of things under the big bed?"
"I really don't know, and I don't know where you found it?" Zou Yuhua seemed not to admit it.
No matter how Lu Weiwei asked, he seemed to be determined to fight to the end.
Yuan Shasha couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and said angrily: "Zou Yuhua, this thing was found from under your bed."
"Let me ask you, don't you usually sleep here in your bedroom? Is there anyone else?"
"Or did someone else put this bag in your bedroom?"
"Harmful!" Feeling that he was being quarreled with, Zou Yuhua was also resolute at the moment and continued to deny it:
"It can't be said that this is my bedroom and my bed. The things you found in it are mine, right?"
"Could it be that your father, or your nanny, deliberately put this thing under your bed? Is that what you mean?" Officer Wang also noticed that this guy was pretending to be confused.
.
But Zou Yuhua's reaction was still cold. He just smiled and shook his head: "I never said it, but I don't know why this thing is under my bed."
"It doesn't matter." Gu Chen saw that Zou Yuhua was stubborn and had a tough mouth, so he didn't want to fight him.
So he turned to look at Yuan Shasha who was standing aside and said, "Xiao Yuan, put this thing away first, then go back and get a fingerprint sample."
"Understood." Taking the white bag from Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha put the pills into the iron box again and packed them in a transparent evidence bag.
After filling in the number, take a photo to collect evidence, and then put it into your bag.
Seeing the operations of Gu Chen and others, Zou Yuhua's face was gloomy and he seemed helpless.
Gu Chen also walked up to Zou Yuhua and said seriously: "Zou Yuhua, you don't have to be clever in front of us."
"Since this package was found from your home, especially from under the bed in your bedroom, there is a suspicion that you cannot wash it off."
"I advise you to be smarter, tell the remaining hiding places, and take the initiative to explain. It will be beneficial to you and us."
"Haha, I don't know what you are talking about?" Facing Gu Chen's question, Zou Yuhua still showed enough calmness.
But in Gu Chen's opinion, Zou Yuhua is now at the end of his rope.
It can be seen that if Zou Yuhua once revealed the hiding place of these contrabands, if they were searched and found, the amount would be staggering.
Then, what awaits Zou Yuhua will be a cruel reality.
So when faced with his own questioning, Zou Yuhua tried his best to defend himself and tried to clear the relationship with himself, which Gu Chen could understand.
After all, this is a serious crime.
Of course, Gu Chen didn't expect Zou Yuhua to explain it easily, but whether there were other contraband in the room, Gu Chen guessed that there must be.
Moreover, Gu Chen now probably knows why Zou Yuhua asked Hu Zhe to rent warehouses No. 001 and 002 in Area E5 of Yuhua Logistics Park Vegetable Market, and to carry some pickles in.
In Gu Chen's opinion, he only knew that this might be to cover up the smell of other items and avoid unnecessary trouble.
But now it seems that Gu Chen feels that these items that mask the smell may be contraband found in Zou Yuhua's home.
"Senior Brother Wang." Gu Chen looked around and reminded: "Ask the police dog training center to help us mobilize the police dogs."
"Understood." He knew what Gu Chen meant, he wanted the police dog to come over and help search for contraband.
After all, police dogs' sense of smell is much more sensitive than humans.
Although Gu Chen has master-level observation skills, he is not as good as a professional police dog when it comes to searching for contraband.
Taking out his mobile phone, Officer Wang immediately started to contact the police dog training center.
At this moment, Gu Chen also walked up to Zou Yuhua and continued to persuade: "Zou Yuhua, you still have a chance now. I hope you can consciously explain it before we find these things."
"Haha." Faced with Gu Chen's doubts, Zou Yuhua shook his head and continued to pretend to be stupid:
"I have no idea how this thing could be under my bed, and how can I cooperate with you?"
"Zou Yuhua." It felt like Zou Yuhua had a rogue face, and Lu Weiwei said in a bad mood:
"We have given you countless opportunities, but you have to give up."
"You need to know your current situation."
"What's wrong with my current situation?" Zou Yuhua looked at Lu Weiwei and asked with raised eyebrows.
Lu Weiwei wanted to say a few more words, but was stopped by Officer Wang on the side.
Officer Wang quickly said: "Lu Weiwei, there's no point in talking nonsense with this kind of person. When we find the contraband he hid, what else will he want to say?"
After looking at Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe, Officer Wang also waved his hand and said: "Take him to the first floor first. By the way, call the nanny up."
"Understood." After hearing Officer Wang's words, Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe immediately took Zou Yuhua down the stairs.
Not long after, Ji Zhe brought the middle-aged female nanny into the room.
Seeing Gu Chen and the others, the middle-aged female nanny looked a little nervous.
Gu Chen took the initiative to step forward and said comfortingly: "Don't be nervous, you are the nanny of Zou Yuhua's family, right?"
"That's right." The middle-aged woman nodded silently. She was also very frightened at the moment and quickly explained:
"I just help Mr. Zou's family clean the house, repair the flowers and trees in the yard, and serve as a nanny to cook for Mr. Zou's family. I don't know anything about their family."
"Don't jump to conclusions yet." After hearing what the middle-aged woman said, Gu Chen pointed to the corners of the room and asked:
"Are you familiar with this room?"
"This is Mr. Zou's room," the middle-aged woman said.
"I know." Gu Chen nodded silently and continued to remind:
"I mean, you are responsible for cleaning the room, so you come here to clean this room often, right?"
"No, no." Faced with Gu Chen's question, the middle-aged woman waved her hand and quickly denied it and said:
"Every area of Mr. Zou's villa, including the attic, needs to be cleaned. However, outsiders are never allowed in his room."
"Even Mr. Zou's father at home doesn't let him come in and out of his room at will."
"Anyway, Mr. Zou has an explanation, because the things placed in Mr. Zou's room are more important."
"He also told me that if something was suddenly lost in his bedroom, I would not be able to escape responsibility, so he told me not to clean my room."
"Then who usually cleans his own room?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"He is himself," the middle-aged woman said.
"Himself?" Yuan Shasha on the side heard this and said in disbelief:
"So you, Mr. Zou, still have to clean your own room?"
"Yes, that's what he asked for." Seeing that Yuan Shasha didn't believe it, the middle-aged woman continued to explain:
"He usually does things like cleaning windows by himself. We outsiders are not allowed to enter his room at all."
"Then his bedroom door is usually locked?" Officer Wang heard this and asked curiously.
But the middle-aged woman shook her head: "No, Mr. Zou's bedroom door is usually unlocked, but I won't go in. This is the rule."
"Mr. Zou and his family also trust me, so they handed over the management of the villa to me."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After saying this, the middle-aged woman was also very nervous.
After all, Zou Yuhua is now handcuffed and being held by the police downstairs.
The middle-aged woman would not know what Zou Yuhua's current situation is.
Gu Chen nodded silently and continued to ask: "Then do you know where Zou Yuhua likes to put things?"
"Ah?" It seemed that she didn't understand what Gu Chen meant. The middle-aged woman's expression was stunned and confused.
Gu Chen thought for a few seconds and then added: "We just found an iron box from under his bed."
"There are some contraband inside, so we want to know, if Zou Yuhua wants to hide similar items at home, where do you think he is most likely to hide them?"
"I'm sorry." After listening to Gu Chen's explanation, the middle-aged woman waved her hands and said:
"I really don't know this. I am the nanny of Mr. Zou's family. I usually clean the house, mow the yard, and cook for Mr. Zou's family. I don't know anything about the rest. Really, I really don't know anything.
Know……"
He also saw that the middle-aged woman did not know many things, and Gu Chen did not want to embarrass her.
After all, with this middle-aged woman, it was difficult for Gu Chen to know the area where Zou Yuhua hid his items.
Thinking about it, we can only take the middle-aged woman back to the yard temporarily.
Later, Gu Chen called Zou Yuhua's father directly from the yard to the bedroom.
When he saw Gu Chen and the others, Mr. Zou, who was standing at the door, lost his previous enthusiasm and energy.
All that's left is a look of loneliness and confusion.
"Uncle Zou, please come in." Gu Chen said casually when he saw Mr. Zou standing at the door.
Mr. Zou took a deep breath, walked slowly to Gu Chen, and asked curiously:
"Officer Gu, has my son Zou Yuhua committed something?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen didn't want to hide anything. He just nodded silently and confirmed:
"Judging from our current investigation, the situation of your son Zou Yuhua is indeed not optimistic."
"Bah!" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Mr. Zou's legs instantly softened and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Lu Weiwei on the side had quick eyes and quick hands and held him up: "Uncle Zou, are you okay?"
"Am I okay? How could I be okay?" With a choked tone, Uncle Zou pushed away Lu Weiwei's supporting hands, walked to Gu Chen with heavy steps, and asked tentatively:
"Officer Gu, I saw you handcuffed my son Zou Yuhua. I know he may be in big trouble."
"But, until now, I don't know what happened to him?"
"You don't need to know too much." Gu Chen didn't want to say too much to Uncle Zou here, so he simply revealed:
"We currently found some contraband under the bed in his bedroom."
"Contraband? Under the bed?" Listening to what Gu Chen said, Uncle Zou obviously knew the meaning of contraband.
The whole person suddenly became uneasy and said: "Impossible, how could my son be contaminated with such a thing? This must be a misunderstanding."
Looking at Gu Chen with a complicated expression, Uncle Zou continued: "Maybe... maybe he was his friend. When he was singing and drinking, he accidentally stuffed some into him."
"Perhaps he didn't know what it was at the time? Then he took it home in a daze."
"Maybe when he came to his senses, he realized that he had brought such things, and then he didn't know what to do with them for a while, so... so he just threw these things under the bed."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Uncle Zou also choked with sobs and said, "It must be like this, Officer Gu, it must be like this."
"Okay." Seeing Uncle Zou's excitement, Gu Chen quickly patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:
"Uncle Zou, I can understand your feelings and your attitude of protecting your son. However, the fact is that your son, Zou Yuhua, hides contraband under the bed in the bedroom."
"And you have to know that the reason why we were able to investigate your son's head is obviously because we have a lot of evidence."
"And all this evidence points to your son Zou Yuhua. We currently suspect that your son is engaged in some illegal activities and is suspected of being related to multiple murder cases."
"Murder case?" After hearing this, Mr. Zou lost his composure for a moment, and his mood broke even further: "No, you must have made a mistake."
"I know my son. He is the pride of our hometown. He is also a representative of outstanding entrepreneurs in Jiangnan City. The city leaders even awarded him a certificate."
"He also actively invests in businesses and provides job opportunities for many people. He has always been actively engaged in public welfare undertakings. These have been reported in the news."
After a pause, Uncle Zou also breathed a sigh of relief, and then said again:
"How could such an outstanding person become a murderer? You must have made a mistake. Really, he is a good person."
"A good person?" After hearing what Uncle Zou said, Lu Weiwei, who originally didn't want to expose Zou Yuhua's sinful face, couldn't hold back any longer. She walked directly to Uncle Zou and said angrily:
"Uncle Zou, you said your son Zou Yuhua is a good person? Then let me ask you, do you really know your son?"
"Or is it that the Zou Yuhua you know is just what Zou Yuhua wants you to see?"
"Comrade policewoman, why do you say this about my son?" He seemed a little dissatisfied, or in other words, Uncle Zou did not allow others to destroy his son's great image in his mind.
Uncle Zou retorted somewhat unconvinced.
But Lu Weiwei doesn't accept this trick. She feels that the old man has been so confused by her unfilial son that he doesn't even know Zou Yuhua's true face.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Weiwei also took a step forward and said righteously:
"If he was a good person, he would not hire some idle people for a long time and go around threatening ordinary people."
"If he is a good person, he will not use some abnormal means to achieve his own financial interests."
"It can be said that the horses he raises often cause harm to the party, and those victims have long been extremely angry with him."
Seeing that Uncle Zou was a little confused, Lu Weiwei continued: "Also, don't believe it. All the people working under your son Zou Yuhua have been captured by our police."
"Moreover, they also confessed evidence of your son Zou Yuhua's crime in the interrogation room."
"That's not all. He also hid contraband at home. Do you think such a son is what you want to see? Or are you living in the dream your son has compiled for you?"
"You...you...you're talking nonsense." She seemed to be overwhelmed by Lu Weiwei's strong retort.
Uncle Zou suddenly became so angry that he could hardly breathe.
Suddenly, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Jizhe at the door had quick eyesight and quick hands, and quickly helped Uncle Zou.
"You...you are talking nonsense. My son is not such a person. He is an outstanding entrepreneur representative in the city. He is the pride of the people of our hometown. This is not what you said at all."
"Okay, Uncle Zou, I think you should go back and have a rest first." Seeing that Uncle Zou was already very angry, Officer Wang quickly ordered Ji Zhe to take Uncle Zou to another bedroom on the second floor and let Zou
You can calm down your mood.
Seeing that Ji Zhe had taken the person away, Officer Wang glanced at Lu Weiwei, pointed at Lu Weiwei and said angrily:
"Lu Weiwei, Lu Weiwei, why are you so angry with Uncle Zou when you have nothing to do? Look at how angry you are. If something goes wrong, we still have to take responsibility."
"Can you blame me?" Feeling that she was still wronged, Lu Weiwei also defended herself:
"As you can see, this is Uncle Zou who keeps praising his son for how outstanding he is. He feels like he doesn't know anything."
"He has been living in the beautiful lie that his son compiled for him. One day, we exposed this lie and he couldn't stand it anymore. This can only be blamed on his lack of discernment."
"Okay, Senior Sister Lu, please stop saying a few words." Seeing that Lu Weiwei was also a little unconvinced, Gu Chen quickly stood up and interrupted:
"Actually, Uncle Zou is right. His son, Zou Yuhua, has made him proud."
"In the eyes of their fellow villagers, he does have a good son, so he is proud of Zou Yuhua."
"But living in this kind of atmosphere for too long will inevitably make him a little obsessed. Once he discovers that his son is not as good as he thought."
"One day, you may even become a prisoner."
"Such a huge gap is not something that ordinary people can handle."
Taking a deep breath, Gu Chen said helplessly: "But the most important thing for us right now is to search the entire villa."
"We need to find the contraband hidden in the villa. Only in this way will Zou Yuhua and the industrial chain behind Zou Yuhua be under our control."
"Well, I'll listen to you." Seeing Gu Chen say this, Lu Weiwei felt no psychological burden.
Afterwards, everyone worked together to continue searching the villa, but still found nothing.
The police who then came to support also brought police dogs, and with the assistance of Gu Chen's team, they continued to search the entire room.
The time soon came to early morning, and the search of Zou Yuhua's villa continued.
All the lights in Zou Yuhua's villa were turned on at this moment, and the light source illuminated the entire area.
Zou Yuhua was also taken into the police car. He sat in the police car in a daze, but still refused to confess where other contraband was hidden.
Of course, Gu Chen didn't expect Zou Yuhua to explain anything. At this stage, it would be complete if he gave an explanation, and it would be complete if he didn't.
If you don't confess, as long as the police can't find you, it might be good for you.
This is also a manifestation of the luck mentality of many criminals.
But Gu Chen was not prepared to let Zou Yuhua's luck succeed.
From the beginning of the search until early in the morning, Gu Chen was always on site to direct.
It was already early morning, and Gu Chen stood in the courtyard, looking at the brightly lit villa in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Junior Brother Gu, please drink some water." Seeing that Gu Chen's mouth was a little dry, Lu Weiwei quickly handed over a bottle of water to Gu Chen.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lu." Gu Chen took the water, unscrewed the bottle cap, and took a few sips.
Lu Weiwei also approached Gu Chen, looked at the brightly lit villa building in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh:
"This villa is really big enough. If Zou Yuhua really wants to hide something inside this villa, it will be really hard to find it."
"Unless Zou Yuhua had a back-up plan from the beginning of the renovation, but what is this back-up plan? I still can't find the problem."
After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Gu Chen, who was still thinking about the situation in the villa, suddenly his eyes lit up and he turned to look at Lu Weiwei: "Senior Sister Lu, what did you just say?"
"Ah?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, Lu Weiwei also looked dumbfounded, and then quickly replied:
"I said, if this Zou Yuhua has a back-up plan, it must have been designed when he renovated the villa. Otherwise, why is it so difficult for us to find out?"
"Backhand? During renovation?" After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Gu Chen suddenly raised his head and looked at the villa in front of him, and instantly became serious.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei looked curiously in the direction of the villa, then turned to look at Gu Chen, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Junior Brother Gu, what are you looking at?"
"I feel like this villa is not symmetrical." Gu Chen said.
"Isn't it symmetrical?" Lu Weiwei's expression was stunned, she quickly looked at the villa in front of her, and said with a smile:
"Junior Brother Gu, this villa is not originally built according to a symmetrical structure. Of course it is asymmetrical."
"No, I mean the details are asymmetrical." Gu Chen felt that Lu Weiwei didn't understand what he meant, so he added another sentence.
"Asymmetry in details?" Listening to Gu Chen's ambiguous reply, Lu Weiwei frowned and quickly looked at the villa in front of her.
But for a long time, Lu Weiwei still couldn't find the source of the problem, so she had to continue asking for advice. Gu Chen said:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Junior brother Gu, why don't you just say it straight? Where do you see the problem with this villa?"
"Window, the window on the second floor." Seeing that Lu Weiwei seemed to have difficulty seeing the details, Gu Chen couldn't help but point to the window on the second floor and explained:
"Generally speaking, the windows on the second floor are asymmetrical to the windows on the third floor because the structure is different. The structure upstairs is smaller."
"Yes." Following Gu Chen's prompt, Lu Weiwei also looked at the villa and replied:
"Because the structure of his villa is like this. The higher you go up, the smaller the building area becomes."
"So the area on the third floor is smaller than that on the second floor, and the windows are closer together, not as separated as on the second floor."
"But there is obviously a structural problem with the windows on the second floor." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen revealed the cause of the problem.
"The window on the second floor?" Lu Weiwei looked dumbfounded and observed by herself, but she still didn't understand what Gu Chen meant.
Gu Chen continued to point in the direction of the second floor and said:
"Sister Lu, look, the window on the left is Zou Yuhua's bedroom, right?"
"Yes, we searched it before, it was his bedroom." Lu Weiwei nodded silently.
So Gu Chen pointed to the right again and said: "There is also a small bedroom on the right."
"Yes, it is empty. No one has been living there. We have also checked it." Lu Weiwei said again.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Weiwei seemed to realize something. After being stunned for two seconds, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Gu Chen:
"Junior Brother Gu, are you saying that there is something wrong with the distance between these two windows?"
"Yes." Seeing that Lu Weiwei finally understood what she meant, Gu Chen quickly confessed:
"We just searched Zou Yuhua's bedroom and also searched the room next door. At that time, we felt that the window in the next room was closer to the corner of the wall."
"However, from the appearance, in this structure, the window should be closer to the middle of the bedroom, which means..."
"That means there is actually a compartment in the middle?" Before Gu Chen could finish speaking, Lu Weiwei quickly interjected:
"Because there is a partition in the middle, the window of the small bedroom becomes a little strange."
"Obviously from the outside, the window should be in the middle area near the bedroom."
"But in fact, inside the bedroom, the windows are closer to the corners of the wall."
"Because there may be a narrower partition between the two bedrooms."
With a snap of her fingers, Lu Weiwei also suddenly realized: "Yes, that's it, I found the root of the problem."
