In the office, Gu Chen discussed Aunt Liu's matter with Officer Wang, and felt that something seemed to be coming together.
You know, Wen Tiexiong's wife met a gangster and chatted for a long time, which is very abnormal.
In addition, Aunt Liu, the nanny who had been working for the Wen family for many years, suddenly left her job and retired. The timing seems to be very delicate.
This had to make Gu Chen and Officer Wang suspicious.
At this time, Lu Weiwei took a sip of milk tea, then came to the two of them and said: "If you ask me, the most suspicious task here should be Wen Jun's stepmother."
"Wen Jun told us frankly at the beginning that he had a bad relationship with his stepmother, and his two younger sisters also looked down on him."
"The main reason is that his appearance seems to have taken away everything that originally belonged to them, even though Wen Jun's mother did not get involved."
"But just because Wen Jun is the only male in the Wen family, he deserves to enjoy this incredible wealth."
"Yes." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Yuan Shasha stood up and said:
"Let me see, this gentle stepmother should be displeased with him. She couldn't give birth to a son, and she can't have children now."
"The two daughters will eventually marry outsiders, so even if all of the Wen family's fortune does not fall on Wen Jun in the end, Wen Jun can still get a small fortune."
"What do you think of this stepmother? Especially the family behind his stepmother, that's hard to accept."
"So, it seems reasonable for Wen Jun's stepmother and the two half-sisters to look down on him and reject him."
"Well." Officer Wang listened to everyone's analysis, crossed his arms and looked at Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, what do you think?"
"We can only wait for the news from Officer Liao from the Magic City and see what Aunt Liu has to say?"
"In addition, the bodyguard Da Zhuang will also go to help find out about the gangster Wang Laoliu."
"With the help of these people, I think it won't be a big problem to find Wen Jun."
"But what I'm most worried about now is that they will attack Wen Jun."
"Harm, let's just leave it to fate." Officer Wang also looked a little helpless.
You know, Wen Jun's disappearance is extremely strange.
Especially when Wen Jun was being taken away, he seemed to be very cooperative, which made Officer Wang a little confused.
The key is that the porcelain bottle was also taken away.
You know, that porcelain bottle is considered a defective product at best, but even so, it has to be taken away together.
If he didn't know the secret inside this porcelain bottle, Officer Wang felt that it was just an ordinary porcelain bottle.
…
…
The next morning.
It started to rain lightly in Jiangnan City, which brought a brief moment of coolness to the hot summer.
In the morning at the Furong branch, everyone was busy with the work at hand.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, continued to analyze Wen Jun's whereabouts.
On the whiteboard, Gu Chen had already drawn densely packed mind maps.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also reminded Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, are we going to urge this bodyguard to become stronger? Doesn't he have some connections in Magic City?"
"If there is still no news about Wang Laoliu from his side, then it won't be easy for us to start the investigation here?"
"We should hurry up." After hearing Lu Weiwei's suggestion, Gu Chen also took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Wen Tiexiong's number.
Not long after, the call was connected, and Wen Tiexiong on the other end also asked in an expectant tone: "Gu Bureau, is there any news about my son Ajun?"
"Not yet. I'm calling this time to ask you if your bodyguard, Da Zhuang, has helped find out about Wang Laoliu?"
"Oh, I haven't heard anything here. May I ask again?" Wen Tiexiong said.
"Okay." Gu Chen also agreed.
Subsequently, both parties hung up the phone.
It can be said that during the period when Wen Jun was missing, every phone call between Gu Chen and Wen Tiexiong seemed to sting Wen Tiexiong's nerves.
But Gu Chen wanted to know these fragmented clues even more.
At this moment, He Junchao suddenly shouted: "Found it."
"He Junchao, what's your name?" Lu Weiwei was startled by He Junchao's surprise and said angrily.
But He Junchao didn't care about this and hurriedly reported to Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, we found it. Wen Jun's grandmother and grandfather have been found."
When Gu Chen heard this, he stood up and hurriedly came to He Junchao.
"Look, I finally found their traces based on various investigations." He Junchao quickly called up the screen as he spoke.
In the surveillance footage, two old men were seen passing through an alley.
"Where is this?" Gu Chen asked.
"Peach Blossom Lane." He Junchao said.
A nearby map immediately appeared in Gu Chen's mind, and he quickly asked: "Is it the Peach Blossom Community?"
"Yes." He Junchao snapped his fingers and quickly replied: "It's an old community even in Taohua Community."
"I remember this place is very far away." Officer Wang seemed to remember this location and couldn't help but explain.
He Junchao quickly said: "Since there is something wrong with these two old people, and they have been hiding from their old neighbors since they moved here from Rongcheng, it means that there must be something wrong with these two people."
"Since there is something going on, there must be a problem. They will definitely move to a location with fewer people, so it is not easy to be discovered."
"That makes sense." After listening to He Junchao's analysis, Lu Weiwei swung her fingers and couldn't help but say:
"It seems that these two old men are not planning to return to Chengdu, but what are they doing here? Or are they avoiding something?"
"Also, where is their daughter Xu Guiying?"
"Only by finding these two old men can everything be revealed." Yuan Shasha said at the side.
"Go find them." Gu Chen couldn't sit still and immediately turned around to get the equipment.
Upon seeing this, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha also went to get their own equipment.
When Gu Chen walked out of the door, he also reminded He Junchao: "Send me the specific location. In addition, if you find any signs of movement of these two old people, send me the specific coordinates of the movement."
"Understood." Seeing that Gu Chen was about to go out again, He Junchao quickly agreed.
Now that we arrived at the compound parking lot, we immediately drove to Taohua Lane.
…
…
Peach Blossom Lane, like the previous old community, is also located in the suburbs.
The terrain here is also relatively undulating. It used to be an orchard where many peach blossoms were planted.
But as the city developed and continued to expand outwards, eventually this orchard ceased to exist and became the current community.
Peach Blossom Lane is an old road in an old community, surrounded by some old houses.
"Is this here?" Lu Weiwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, pointed to a location on the right according to the map navigation on her mobile phone.
"It should be." Gu Chen confirmed the direction and immediately parked the car in an empty space on the roadside.
Everyone got off the car and started walking towards Peach Blossom Lane.
The roads here are narrow, and the people living here are mainly middle-aged and elderly people, so it seems that there are not many people and it is very quiet.
When walking in the box, you can even hear your own footsteps echoing.
"Senior Brother He, specific location." Gu Chen walked toward the depths of the alley while confirming the location with He Junchao in the office.
He Junchao on the phone quickly replied: "Gu Chen, walk a little further in. When you come to the fork in the road, turn left. There is also a small alley over there, which is narrower than the road you are taking now."
"I think those two old people may be renting in this alley now."
"Okay." After listening to He Junchao's story, Gu Chen didn't care too much and immediately quickened his pace and soon arrived at this intersection.
Looking to the left, here is a narrow alley.
The green bricks even grew some moss due to lack of sunlight.
Gu Chen walked along the road and suddenly found that there were wooden doors on the left and right sides of the alley. It looked like there were several families, because there was a wall at the end of the alley.
"This should be the right place." Gu Chen reminded.
Yuan Shasha quickly said: "There are three families here."
"Knock on the door." Officer Wang couldn't wait any longer.
So everyone started knocking on the first door, but no matter how hard they knocked, there was still no movement in this house.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang knocked on the opposite door again.
However, after a knock on the door, there was still no response.
"Why is there no one?" Lu Weiwei was a little frustrated at this moment.
But Gu Chen did remind him: "Senior Brother He said that after the two of them entered here, they did not go out. I think..."
Turning to look at the wooden door on the right side of the alley, Gu Chen said again: "I think people live here, right?"
"I'm going to knock on the door." Lu Weiwei didn't give up. She went directly to the door of the last house, walked up the steps, and knocked on the door: "Dudududu, is there anyone there?"
Putting her ear against the wooden door and waiting quietly, Lu Weiwei quickly looked at everyone and warned: "There seems to be some movement."
"Knock again." Officer Wang reminded.
"Tuk tuk tuk." Lu Weiwei continued to knock on the door: "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
Also disturbed by Lu Weiwei's constant knocking on the door, a burst of footsteps finally came from inside the house.
When Lu Weiwei saw this, she quickly stood up straight.
I only heard the sound of a lock being drawn from behind the wooden door.
With a muffled "squeak" sound, the wooden door was opened, and an uncle stood in front of the door.
Seeing Lu Weiwei and others wearing police uniforms, her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly asked, "Is something wrong with you?"
"Excuse me, is Xu Guiying your daughter?" Lu Weiwei also asked cautiously.
"Ah?" He seemed a little confused by Lu Weiwei's directness. The old man was also stunned and seemed to be unable to react.
So Yuan Shasha, who was standing behind Lu Weiwei, also continued to ask: "Excuse me, is that Xu Guiying your daughter?"
"What on earth are you doing here?"
"Old man, don't worry." Feeling that the old man was a little worried, Gu Chen quickly stepped forward and said comfortingly:
"We are investigating a case that may involve your family. According to our investigation, your daughter should be named Xu Guiying, right?"
"Yes." Feeling that he couldn't answer now, the old man said reluctantly.
Gu Chen looked around and continued to ask: "Can we go in and talk?"
"But...it's okay." The old man lowered his head subconsciously and thought for a few seconds, but still agreed to let Gu Chen and others enter the house.
Everyone crossed the threshold, walked through a small courtyard, and then came to the living room.
Although the old houses in this place are relatively old, especially wooden structures, they are relatively well preserved.
When everyone walked to the front hall, they discovered that there was a patio inside.
Under the patio, there is a large tank filled with water.
"Old man, where is your lover?" Gu Chen asked curiously after observing the surroundings.
The old man quickly turned to face the room and called out: "Old woman."
"Here we come." After hearing the noise outside, an old lady walked out of the house and came to the crowd.
"Go and give them a cup of tea." the old man said.
"Okay." The old lady nodded silently, turned around and left quickly.
Gu Chen continued to ask: "Uncle, can you tell us now the whereabouts of your daughter Xu Guiying?"
"Comrade policemen, what on earth do you want to know? Why do you suddenly ask me for my daughter's name?"
"Uncle, can you answer our questions first?" Why does this uncle still have some emotions? But Lu Weiwei still insists on letting the uncle admit that he is Xu Guiying's father.
Forced by the police's sense of oppression, the old man could only nod silently and couldn't help but say:
"Yes, Xu Guiying is my daughter, but she passed away many years ago."
"What? Died?" After hearing the news, Officer Wang became a little uneasy and quickly stepped forward and asked:
"How did she die?"
"There was a car accident on the road, and I was seriously injured. That's all." The old man seemed unwilling to mention these past events.
It seems that this matter has been buried in my heart for a long time, but now I am forced to mention it again.
"Sorry." Gu Chen quickly apologized, but continued to ask: "Do you know that you have a grandson?"
"I know." The old man nodded silently, but then sighed:
"We do have a grandson, but we can't see him."
"Why?" Officer Wang also asked knowingly and wanted to test the old couple.
The uncle also suppressed his emotions and couldn't help but said: "Back then, my daughter Xu Guiying fell in love with a rich young man from Shanghai."
"She didn't know the other person's identity at all at the time, so when the two had a child and were about to discuss marriage, she discovered that the man was the son of the company boss."
Taking a deep breath, the old man said helplessly: "The conditions of our two families are very different. The other's father looks down on children from ordinary families like us."
"So, he didn't agree to the marriage, but turned around and arranged a matching marriage for his son."
"But my daughter already had that man's child, so she insisted on giving birth to the child, thinking that she could make the old man change his mind before he got married."
"I never thought that the other party's family was nothing. When my daughter gave birth to the child, they sent someone to take the child away directly."
When he said this, the old man gritted his teeth with hatred.
