Gu Chen had never paid attention to the ventilation ducts before, but now through his master's level of observation, he keenly observed the food under Master Liu's feet.
Gu Chen was convinced that there might really be important clues in this warehouse.
At this moment, Gu Chen discovered that the ventilation duct that he had ignored before might be the key to the problem.
When he walked to one of the ventilation ducts, Gu Chen raised his head and glanced twice, then turned to look at Master Liu and asked:
"Master Liu, where is the switch for the ventilation duct here?"
"At...at the door."
"Open them all." Gu Chen said.
"Now?" Master Liu looked surprised.
Seeing Gu Chen nodding silently, he ran to the door and started to find the switches of the ventilation duct according to the various words posted on it, and turned on all the switches.
At this moment, as various noises were heard, everyone discovered that several vents began to make some "buzzing" movements, which was a sign that the fans began to ventilate.
So everyone immediately found a place with ventilation and observed carefully.
"Senior Brother Gu, look at that." Yuan Shasha pointed to one of the iron frames.
Only then did Gu Chen realize that the position of the iron frame was just above and below the ventilation duct.
In other words, people can climb up through the iron frame and then leave through the ventilation duct.
"Go and have a look." Gu Chen couldn't wait at this moment. He wanted to know how this group of people escaped the police's investigation.
Not long after, when Gu Chen came under the iron frame, he found that there were obvious signs of movement on the four legs of the iron frame.
This situation usually occurs when people climb onto the iron frame, causing some slight shaking, which causes the iron frame to shift.
"Someone has climbed up before." Officer Wang saw the traces below and said quickly.
"I'll go up and take a look." Gu Chen said.
Officer Wang immediately warned: "Gu Chen, be careful, I'll go up with you to have a look."
He was also worried about Gu Chen's comfort. After all, if these people were really hiding in the ventilation duct, then they might fight to the death with the police.
So the best way now is to first discover the specific location of this group of people and then make long-term plans.
The two looked at each other and nodded silently.
Afterwards, Gu Chen first extracted some fingerprint information on the iron frame, and then took the lead in climbing the iron frame from another location, while Officer Wang followed closely behind.
Other personnel held on to the iron frame to prevent it from shifting.
When the two came to the top of the iron frame, the fan in the ventilation duct was still humming.
Gu Chen took out a police dagger and started trying it at the opening of the ventilation duct.
When it was found that there was no problem, they began to move the ceiling above the pipe along the gap.
At this moment, the fan's buzzing noise became louder and louder.
But Gu Chen did not enter the pipe immediately, but turned on the camera on his cell phone.
Then, position the camera deep into the ceiling above.
After taking some pictures, take the phone back.
Officer Wang immediately approached Gu Chen, and the two of them confirmed the internal conditions of the ventilation duct again.
"Is there any garbage?" Officer Wang's heart skipped a beat when he saw some food garbage bags.
Xin said that Gu Chen had guessed it right, there was indeed someone hiding here.
Thinking of this, Officer Wang took out his mobile phone again, and followed Gu Chen's example before, and went deep into it to explore again.
When Officer Wang took the phone back, he discovered that there were not only food packaging bags inside, but also some empty mineral water bottles.
However, except for some fan blades, no trace of people was found at the vents.
But when I looked up, the blades seemed to have been dismantled.
Officer Wang put on his gloves and began to twist the obstacle in front of him. When the obstacle was removed, he found that he could actually climb into the ventilation duct as long as he stood up.
"I'll go in and take a look." Officer Wang said.
"Senior Brother Wang, be careful." Gu Chen also warned.
Officer Wang waved his hand: "It's okay. This pipe seems to lead to the outside. There is no one inside now. I guess they escaped from the warehouse through the pipe."
Without any time to think, Officer Wang immediately started climbing into the pipe.
Due to his successful weight loss, Officer Wang's physical fitness has been remarkable in recent years.
Dealing with this environment is easy.
Not long after, Officer Wang crawled into the ventilation duct and used the flashlight to look at the situation inside.
Because of these four vents, only this place is supported by the iron frame below, so people can climb up.
So if you want to escape from the pipe, you can only go through this pipe, so just keep crawling along the pipe.
Officer Wang crawled forward for a while, and a flashlight light came from behind.
He turned around and saw that Gu Chen was already behind him.
Then, the two began to crawl forward, constantly searching forward.
On both sides of the aisle, there are many packaged bags of food.
Gu Chen, who was following Officer Wang, kept bringing these packaging bags in front of him, carefully observed them, and determined that they were the ones he had tried recently before continuing to crawl forward.
But the two of them didn't know how long they had been crawling in this dark pipe, when suddenly there was some light source in front of them.
Officer Wang looked back at Gu Chen and reminded him, "Gu Chen, there may be an exit ahead."
"Understood, please be safe, Senior Brother Wang." Gu Chen nodded silently, and the two of them nodded in agreement.
But when Officer Wang crawled toward the light source, he discovered that there was an air vent in front of him that looked like a blind.
When Officer Wang arrived at the vent, he discovered that there was a green space in front of him.
The screws at the seal have been removed and are only nominally stuck there.
Officer Wang easily removed the seal and then got out from the vent.
Gu Chen followed closely behind.
When they both came to the ground, they found that it was a lawn of the hotel, and the lawn seemed to be surrounded by some dense woods.
Not far away is the wall.
"These people won't escape from here, right?" When Officer Wang saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, thinking about the blind spot of surveillance here.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gu Chen did not reply, but immediately started walking towards the wall.
During this period, we passed through a dense forest.
The trees here have lush branches and leaves, so it looks very shady.
But when Gu Chen came to the wall, he discovered that there was a broken iron fence, and people could get out from here.
"This is it." Seeing this scene, Gu Chen took a deep breath and finally figured out where this group of people escaped from.
But when I thought back, I felt like something was wrong: "If these people took Wen Jun and escaped from here, then how could Wen Jun be willing to be kidnapped by them?"
"If it is a threat, then it is not easy to get out of the ventilation duct."
"Once Wen Jun refuses to cooperate, or in other words, cooperates passively, this group of people will suffer a lot."
"After all, you have to kidnap a person, crawl from inside the warehouse to the ventilation duct, then get out from another part of the ventilation duct, and climb over the wall to escape from the hotel."
"These circumstances alone add up to all kinds of uncertainties. How could the kidnappers be 100% sure? Instead of choosing the simplest way, kidnapping Wen Jun into a vehicle and then driving away.
?”
All kinds of questions suddenly made Gu Chen feel that the situation was not that simple.
At the same time, after receiving the call reminder from Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei and others hurriedly came to the ground from the underground warehouse, and after a long circle, they found the exact location of Gu Chen and Officer Wang.
"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei was the first to trot up to Gu Chen. When she saw the damage to the wall, her heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but say:
"How come this location was not found during previous searches?"
"There are many plants here as cover. People who are not familiar with the situation here will never find that there is a damaged wall behind these plants." Gu Chen also said casually.
"That's right." Lu Weiwei nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "Then these people must know the situation of the hotel, at least the layout, and they should be very, very familiar with the hotel."
"I dare say that the average hotel staff may not be aware of the loopholes here."
"Yes." Yuan Shasha also agreed with Lu Weiwei's remarks and echoed:
"It seems that these people have planned this for a long time, but..."
Halfway through her words, Yuan Shasha turned to look in the direction of Gu Chen and asked curiously:
"But Senior Brother Gu, it's quite difficult for these people to escape from here with Wen Jun. Without Wen Jun's cooperation, many links would be difficult to complete."
"That's right." As soon as Yuan Shasha finished speaking, Gu Chen also expressed his opinion:
"This is where I became suspicious, because just now Senior Brother Wang and I crawled all the way through the ventilation ducts in the warehouse, and we deeply felt that without Wen Jun's cooperation, it would be difficult for this group of people to achieve their goals."
"But how can they guarantee Wen Jun's cooperation in kidnapping Wen Jun? The time is too short."
Shaking his right index finger, Gu Chen added: "Especially when it comes to hotel lines being damaged, I feel like these people are really well versed in the internal conditions of the hotel."
"It's as if everything was arranged in advance. From this point of view, there are indeed many unreasonable things."
"That's right." Lu Weiwei couldn't help but say after hearing this:
"This is a bit strange no matter how you look at it. The key point is that even the porcelain bottle that Wen Jun took from his grandfather's neighbor's house is missing."
"Obviously, Wen Jun will definitely take such an important thing with him, that is, put it in his room."
"Then Wen Jun was kidnapped, and his things must have been taken away with him."
"The plan is to kidnap Wen Jun, take Wen Jun out of the room, then go to the warehouse to hide, wait for the opportunity, and then climb from the ventilation duct above the warehouse to the road here."
"Go through this dense forest again, come to the damaged wall, and then escape from here through this damaged wall."
"No matter how you look at it, it's not easy to achieve unless..."
"Unless Wen Jun cooperates." Before Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen directly answered:
"Unless Wen Jun cooperates on his own, it will be difficult to achieve all this."
"Yes." Officer Wang also snapped his fingers and expressed his opinion:
"When Gu Chen and I climbed out of the pipe before, I was thinking that if these people just escaped from the scene on their own and climbed out of the pipe, although it would be difficult, it would be achievable."
"But now if we also add the kidnapped Wen Jun and the porcelain bottle in Wen Jun's hand, it feels impossible to achieve it."
"If you take such a risk, you may succeed, but the probability of success is extremely low. Will they try it so easily? If you try, it will become a bit reckless, and the probability of failure will also greatly increase."
"They won't be reckless." As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, Gu Chen directly answered:
"If they can even destroy the wiring, if they can even know the damaged part of the wall, if they can even know the exit from the ventilation duct of the warehouse, they can climb all the way to this side."
Looking up at everyone, Gu Chen said again: "How could a group of people with such a well-organized plan do such a reckless thing?"
"Obviously, this matter looks like a kidnapping, but in fact, maybe Wen Jun himself is disappearing."
"You mean, Wen Jun created the illusion of being kidnapped? What about the blood on the blade at the scene?" Yuan Shasha asked.
"Obviously." Gu Chen also took a deep breath and said calmly:
"If all this is true, then the blood was left by Wen Jun himself."
"He just wants to use these things for us police to detect and make us believe that this is what the gangster is using his blood to warn."
"In this way, people will naturally not place suspicion on him."
"That's right." After listening to Gu Chen's analysis, Yuan Shasha nodded silently.
At this time, Officer Wang was walking back and forth in front of everyone and said involuntarily:
"But I just can't figure it out. What is Wen Jun's purpose for doing this? Why would he want to cause a kidnapping?"
"Previously, his father, Wen Tiexiong, said that his son had been kidnapped. Later, he said that he might have been involved in telecommunications fraud."
"But now it seems that it is not that simple. Maybe the first time was Wen Jun's own masterpiece. Maybe something went wrong, so Wen Jun chose to take the initiative to refute the rumors."
"But this time, maybe he has new ideas."
"I agree with Senior Brother Wang." After hearing what Officer Wang said, Gu Chen nodded in agreement:
"Perhaps Wen Jun has other arrangements this time, and the reason why he chose to stay in this hotel may have been discussed with the people here, and then he staged a bitter trick to paralyze us and make us careless."
Listening to Gu Chen's analysis, everyone looked at each other in confusion. It seemed that the truth was confusing and unpredictable.
But what can be judged now is that Wen Jun may be using deception to make everyone believe that he has been kidnapped.
Especially since he left the police alone and went to find the whereabouts of his grandparents, it is not difficult to see that he may be more eager to see his relatives, but he cannot let others know.
