After getting into the Luocheng Police Department's assault vehicle, Officer George led everyone to the intersection of the alley where the man in the peaked hat often disappeared.
After getting off the bus, everyone brought their necessary equipment and prepared to enter in batches.
"I think I need to explain it to everyone first."
Just when everyone was about to enter, George stopped in front of everyone, opened his hands and introduced: "This is a place where immigrants and stowaways often gather, so you know, pay attention to safety."
"Understood, thank you for the reminder, Officer George." After Gu Chen buckled up his police equipment, he expressed his gratitude to George for the reminder.
Looking at it, the alleys here are extremely narrow, the buildings are intricate, and the sanitary conditions seem to be very poor.
Compared with other clean and tidy streets in Luocheng, this place seems to be another world.
When Gu Chen entered the alley intersection, he observed the surveillance cameras on the surrounding streets.
Judging from the footage from the monitoring center of Luocheng Police Station, diagonally opposite the alley intersection is the last surveillance camera that I can observe in the monitoring center.
Of course, there are surveillance cameras in the alleys, but most of them have been smashed.
Some are even hanging upside down in the air, and the wiring of the monitoring device is exposed.
"It seems that the residents living here don't want others to monitor their privacy?" Gu Chen asked deliberately and teasingly.
Anna shrugged and smiled: "Who knows? But the security in this area is indeed not good. Many of them are the descendants of illegal immigrants and smuggled refugees."
"Here they live in groups and are relatively exclusive of non-ethnic people, so it is also designated as a dangerous place by our police."
"In short, if you want to investigate here, it's best not to anger them, so as not to make them take some drastic actions."
"Understood." Listening to Anna's words, Gu Chen roughly understood what was going on here.
Just as Officer George said during the investigation, the man in the peaked hat disappears every time he enters an alley and cannot be traced.
the reason is simple……
The camera equipment installed by the police in this area was deliberately damaged. It seems that the residents here do not welcome being monitored by the Italian police.
The reason is also very simple...
This is a place of right and wrong, and the composition of the people is also a mixed bag.
African Americans, Asians, and Latinos have formed an inherent circle here, and the groups are also growing.
The Italian police must consider appropriate ways to enforce the law appropriately, which is why Officer George is unwilling to bring anyone in for investigation.
At the intersection of the alley, two African-American children were sitting on a stone bench playing nearby. They seemed not to mind the arrival of the police.
In their opinion, they are not interested in anything that has nothing to do with them.
Based on what he had observed in the police surveillance center, Gu Chen quickly created a 3D map of the nearby neighborhoods in his mind.
The last time the man in the peaked cap appeared was at the intersection of an alley.
Therefore, if you want to track the whereabouts of the man in the peaked hat, you must also start from the entrance to the alley.
"Let's go in." Gu Chen suggested first.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
On the side of the Chinese police team, Gu Chen, along with Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, entered from the left side by side.
On the Italian police team's side, George, Anna, Mario, Fabio and Carmelo also chose to enter from the right.
"Kid, get out of here." Seeing that no adults were present, Carmelo drove the two African-American children away.
The little boys ran away in fear...
Carmelo put his hands on his hips, looked around and said: "This kind of place is where a group of people with low income, or no income at all, live here. They are a burden to the city. I think this kind of place should be rare.
wonderful."
Seeing a thin, unkempt little girl looking over, Carmelo glared at her, frightening the little girl to quickly close the window.
"Haha, I think they are still afraid of the police. They are not as scary as Uncle Fernando said. They are all a bunch of cowardly guys."
Anna glanced at him and said with disgust: "Speaking of Carmelo, I still want to remind you, don't think that because you scare away a few children, you think they are afraid of you."
"Haha, so what?" Carmelo shrugged, looking fearless.
"Okay, everyone, please stop arguing." Officer George interrupted everyone's conversation and turned to ask Gu Chen: "Officer Gu, this is the place. Do you see anything unusual?"
Gu Chen did not answer immediately, but walked to the middle of the alley, looked around 360 degrees, and then said: "Anyway, this is the place where the man in the peaked hat last disappeared."
"To find clues from a place like this, I think it's like looking for a needle in a haystack." Carmelo walked up to Gu Chen and said angrily: "Do you think it's necessary to come? Officer Gu."
Gu Chen smiled calmly and said: "Whether it is necessary or not, after we arrive at the scene, if you can first determine the area where evidence may be collected through observation."
"Then you start working on the scene, and then you probably have a 70 to 80 percent chance of success."
Glancing at the careless Carmelo in front of him, Gu Chen added: "Don't expect to have such a magic wand. Just wave it at the scene and those fingerprints will pop out in front of you, Officer Carmelo.
"
"You..." Carmelo was also so angry at Gu Chen that he was speechless for a moment.
George and Anna looked at each other and smiled.
Mario and Fabio also pretended not to hear and quickly looked away.
Carmelo was unconvinced and retorted directly: "In a place like this, it's just a place where the man in the peaked hat passes by. Even if we have well-equipped testing equipment, I don't think we may gain anything."
"You are wrong again, Officer Camero." Gu Chen seamlessly connected and said calmly: "In the process of processing the crime scene, even if you have the most advanced crime scene detection technology in the world, you must use it when using it.
Your brain."
After looking around for a week, Gu Chen looked at everyone and said, "If you don't know where to look for fingerprints, then no matter how much technology you have, it won't help."
"If you don't want to use your brain yet, then you can go back and read "The Sherlock Holmes"."
"Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes is a master of observation. He also uses various scientific techniques, but the most basic bottom line is... he is a master of observation."
"Junior Brother Gu, what you said is great." Lu Weiwei was very excited when she saw that Gu Chen had left Carmelo speechless.
"Officer Gu is right." Officer George also agreed with Gu Chen's statement, so he walked up to Camero, slapped him on the shoulder and said, "I asked you to come here to handle the case, not to listen to you.
I’m complaining here.”
"If Director Fernando hadn't been your uncle, I don't think you would have had the chance to stand here. Cherish it, young man."
With two heavy taps on Carmelo's shoulders, Officer George turned around and entered the observation stage.
"You... George, we are all Italian police, how can you help him speak to the Chinese police?"
Carmelo was also furious...
In my own opinion, when Gu Chen's Chinese police team first arrived in Luocheng, everyone was monolithic.
But as Gu Chen continued to solve cases at Luocheng Police Station, his status skyrocketed.
George also started to despise Gu Chen, but gradually became a little admired.
After all, Gu Chen is a person with real abilities, while Carmelo is a well-connected person.
Not only that, Carmelo also clearly felt the change in his uncle Fernando's attitude towards Gu Chen.
Logically speaking, Fernando is a person who has obvious prejudice against the Chinese police, but this person who is relatively repulsive to the Chinese police and is not even willing to publicize the visit of the Chinese police too much has actually begun to look at Gu Chen in a different light.
This is definitely not good news for Carmelo.
Now the Italian police team here is actually facing Gu Chen and the Chinese police team.
Carmelo feels isolated...
Seeing his former colleagues chatting animatedly with Gu Chen and the Chinese police, he couldn't even get a word in.
This is so embarrassing...
"Officer George, what do you think of this neighborhood?" Gu Chen and George walked side by side and asked as they walked.
George said thoughtfully: "In my working impression, there are many small grocery stores selling tobacco and alcohol in this neighborhood, and robberies often occur."
"For some reason, I told you before, after all, the personnel here are very complex and not easy to manage."
"But the weird thing about those cases is when you get a call about a robbery and you get to the scene."
"You'll see a few euros in the cash register and you'll wonder, what's going on? Could the robber leave any money for the victim?"
"Is there such a thing?" Gu Chen heard about it for the first time, so he was very curious.
"No." Officer George shook his head and said, "I have met one before. The grocery store owner was an immigrant."
"After the robbers leave, they will say: 'Okay, the robbery is over, it's time to start work. I have to tear off the tape myself and go back to sell some lottery tickets or something."
"Oh my god, is there such a thing?" Lu Weiwei was also amazed and asked weakly: "Isn't he going to resist? Protect the on-site club? He actually started business like that?"
"Who says it's not?" Anna also sighed helplessly and said, "These people have a high professionalism, but this is very detrimental to the protection of the crime scene."
"Some people are afraid of being robbed and don't want to provoke these people, but there's nothing they can do if the store is located there."
"Sometimes we even reach a tacit agreement with robbers. The robbers come to your door to steal money and only take the day's turnover."
"There will be no interruptions for the next ten days and a half, and these grocery stores will also prepare some cash at a certain time period. This is how they reached a tacit agreement."
"So in this area, our police occasionally receive such calls, but when they arrive at the scene, they find that their business is still open. The traces on the scene are so messy that it is impossible to collect evidence normally."
"So this is also the difficulty for us in enforcing the law in this area." Mario also added.
Gu Chen nodded silently to express his understanding.
Walking in such an area, it seems that everyone on both sides of the road is wary of each other.
This is a little different from what I imagined before.
It seems that this is the dark side in a corner of the metropolis.
It can be seen that the man in the peaked hat chose to get rid of surveillance and tracking in this area because he knew the essence of this area.
Gu Chen knew very well that when entering this area, you must have an extremely broad mind.
In Gu Chen's current dictionary, nothing is impossible.
Let your thoughts wander around, use your brain, and think about what this man in the peaked cap will do in this area, how to do it, where he is, and what he might do.
Gu Chen needs to enter into such a thinking process...
"Wait a minute." Just when Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei walked side by side to an intersection, Gu Chen suddenly stopped.
Then he took a step back, raised his gaze, and stared at the balcony of a residential building in front of him on the right.
"What's wrong, Junior Brother Gu?" Lu Weiwei asked him curiously.
Gu Chen did not answer the call immediately, but walked directly to the intersection of the residential building. Looking at the labor insurance clothes hanging on the balcony, he couldn't help but wonder: "Is there someone in his family doing cleaning work?"
"Of course you have to do cleaning work if you have a labor insurance suit. Is there any problem with that?" Anna walked to Gu Chen's side without saying a word, staring at the labor insurance suit in front of her.
Seeing Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Anna gathered there, Officer Wang, Mario and Fabio immediately followed suit.
Everyone trotted all the way and gathered together...
"What's wrong?"
"Any questions?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Did you find something?"
…
Everyone was chirping and asking about the situation.
Gu Chen crossed his arms and said hesitantly: "On the way to this area, I also saw some people wearing labor insurance uniforms working, but their labor insurance uniforms are very old, and they are all from a certain labor insurance company.
logo."
"But this labor insurance suit is very strange. It doesn't have the logo of the labor insurance suit, and it looks brand new."
"That's right." Lu Weiwei suddenly discovered something fishy and quickly said: "Isn't the labor insurance suit distributed by my company? There is no company logo, which means that the labor insurance suit is newly purchased."
"I understand." Anna suddenly interrupted Lu Weiwei's words and said: "Although our labor insurance companies here are subcontracted to different private companies, as you said, they do all have logos."
"Of course I don't rule out buying some myself, but there are quite a few. I remember that the cleaning work in this area is from a T company. They are responsible for all the cleaning in this area."
After looking at the clothes on the balcony, Anna frowned slightly and said, "Whether you are right or not, looking for traces of the man in the cap now is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"If you really get lucky, maybe..."
"It goes without saying that you are looking for a needle in a haystack. If you can find the key clues, everything that is complicated will only look simple."
Gu Chen interrupted Anna, pointed directly at the labor insurance suit upstairs and said, "I saw that logo on the labor insurance suit from the monitoring center screen."
"Sakura totem?" Lu Weiwei said first.
"Yes, this is exactly the same as the labor protection suit we found on the fat man standing aside doing cleaning after Schrödinger went out."
"On my way here before, I made a special inquiry about the local supply of labor insurance services."
“I discovered that in the Luocheng area, there is only one store selling labor protection clothing with a cherry blossom logo, a grocery store called ‘Fuji Mountain Labor Protection Supplies’, and the owner is from an East Asian island country.”
"This... you can find this?" Officer George couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Gu Chen's words.
To Officer George, Gu Chen seemed to be busy all the time.
How can so much information be captured by just a piece of labor protection clothing hanging out to dry?
At this moment, Officer George felt more and more that the gap between him and Gu Chen seemed to be widening.
"Whether it is or not, we will find out if we go and take a look." Anna seemed to be more confident after capturing this information.
At least Gu Chen kept narrowing this scope.
Gu Chen on the side also said as he walked: "This man in the peaked hat frequently disappears from this area, maybe he lives nearby."
"And based on previous judgments, the cigarette butts that appeared at William's house are indeed cheap goods and are in line with the income level of the residents in this area."
"I hope so. It would be great if that were the case." Anna nodded silently and knocked on the door of the resident's room directly.
About ten seconds passed before a tall, thin black woman gently opened the door and asked, "Please... what can I do for you?"
After Anna looked around, she asked, "How many people are there in your family?"
"It's just me, my husband, and two kids," the black woman said.
"Then does your husband do cleaning and labor insurance work?" Gu Chen also interjected and asked.
The black woman shook her head: "No, my husband does not work in Luocheng, but serves in the French Foreign Legion and is currently on a mission overseas."
"French Foreign Legion?" Police Officer Wang understood the black woman's English and asked directly: "Then why does your family live in Luozhou, Italy? Instead of France?"
"My husband is working hard to obtain French citizenship. After he retires, we will go to France." said the black woman.
Hearing this, Gu Chen also nodded silently and said, "That means that no one in your family is doing labor protection cleaning work at the moment, right?"
"Yes, no." The black woman answered quite simply.
"But... what's going on with the labor protection uniforms hanging on your balcony?" Anna hesitated, pointing in the direction of the balcony and asked.
The black woman was stunned and suddenly said in a panic: "Is it possible...does the owner of the labor insurance suit want to go back? I found this in a nearby trash can. I thought no one wanted it."
"I thought it would be a pity to lose such good clothes, so I picked them up, washed them, and planned to sell them at the night market. Maybe some workers would like them. After all, they looked pretty good."
Listening to what the black woman said, everyone now understood.
The black woman found the labor protection uniform with the cherry blossom logo printed on it in the trash can.
So, is it possible that the labor insurance suit is a disguise abandoned by the man in the peaked cap?
