It was mid-morning, a time when business in the bar street along Yanjiang Road was the most deserted.
Many store employees are just doing simple and boring cleaning work in preparation for the nightclub.
In the parking space at the entrance, there were a few lonely N-hand sports cars parked, most of which were the scooters of bar owners.
After Gu Chen parked the car, he said, "Let's start from the Electronic Music World that Xu Yun mentioned."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lu Weiwei opened the car door, and in front of her was the world of electronic music.
The names of the bars here are very trendy and have many similarities.
A man cleaning at the door couldn't help but look up at Lu Weiwei.
Lu Weiwei was not idle either. She took out her cell phone, showed Zhang Guowen's photo in front of her and asked, "Do you know this person?"
"It seems to have made an impression."
"Think again."
After hesitating for a while, the man said, "I remember, he seems to be a regular customer here, but I don't know his name. After all, he looks familiar."
"Then did he come to your bar to spend money yesterday?" Gu Chen also came over and asked.
The man shook his head: "I'm not sure about this. I didn't go to work last night. I came here to take over this morning."
After Gu Chen looked around, he pointed to a surveillance camera at the door and asked, "Can you show me the surveillance video?"
"Of course." The man took back the broom, stretched out his hand and asked, "Come with me."
Everyone followed the bar man and entered the front desk seat together.
Then, at Gu Chen's request, the man pulled up the surveillance footage, stepped aside and said, "You can check it yourself."
"Thank you for your cooperation." Gu Chen patted the man's shoulder and sat at the front desk.
The bar was quiet in the morning, and the surrounding area seemed particularly quiet.
But the arrival of the police seemed to break the tranquility.
The man seemed to have an ominous premonition that the bar patrons were causing trouble.
After all, it’s not uncommon for people who come here to spend money to engage in various sexual behaviors after drinking, and there are quite a few of them.
As a result, countless people who caused trouble in front of the bar were taken away by the police.
But when the man looked back, he realized that nothing special happened yesterday.
After all, if there is any movement in the bar street, it will go viral in the circle of friends of practitioners.
But that doesn't seem to be happening.
Based on the surveillance at the store entrance, Gu Chen checked all the surveillance between 11:20 and 6 pm last night.
But what is regrettable is that there is no trace of Zhang Guowen in any surveillance footage.
"Isn't it this bar?" Gu Chen frowned and looked up at Lu Weiwei.
Lu Weiwei glanced at the man next to her and continued to ask him: "Where is the backdoor surveillance here?"
"Here." The man assisted Gu Chen again and pulled out the backdoor surveillance camera.
Just like before, Gu Chen found no trace of Zhang Guowen.
With regret, Gu Chen continued to check other stores on the bar street, but the result was still the same.
Zhang Guowen didn't show up at all last night.
Gu Chen was helpless and had no choice but to call He Junchao.
Not long after, He Junchao's call was answered.
"Brother He, do you have the surveillance footage of Zhang Guowen after he got off work yesterday?"
"Yes, there is, but there is no connection." He Junchao also followed Gu Chen's previous request to track Zhang Guowen's route.
I originally wanted to report to Gu Chen, but Gu Chen called me directly.
Gu Chen asked him: "Where was the last place where Zhang Guowen disappeared from the surveillance footage?"
"On Heping Road, I found that this guy was deliberately avoiding surveillance. I tried to track him several times, but he used the blind spot in the surveillance to avoid him."
"Avoid surveillance?" Hearing He Junchao's words, Gu Chen felt a little confused.
"It's fine, why are you hiding from surveillance?"
He Junchao replied: "I have a guilty conscience. This is not the first day I have been tracking a suspect. Guys like this who deliberately avoid roadside surveillance and show their anti-reconnaissance capabilities are just doing bad things, but they are afraid of being caught by the police.
"
"Does this guy have a criminal record?" Gu Chen asked.
"No."
"Why is he avoiding surveillance if he has no criminal record?" Gu Chen felt more and more that Zhang Guowen's death was not that simple.
He Junchao said: "I also checked the bar street of Yanjiang Road. There was no trace of Zhang Guowen last night, so judging from the information you sent me, it seems that Zhang Guowen did not fall into the river there."
"That means... it wasn't an accidental fall into the river? Maybe it was a homicide?" Gu Chen asked a question.
He Junchao smiled and said: "I don't know if this is the case. You may want to go to the Heping Road area and have a look. You may be able to capture traces of Zhang Guowen from the surveillance cameras of some small shops."
"That's a good suggestion. Okay, send me the final surveillance picture and location, and I'll go over there and look for it."
Gu Chen no longer considered the option of falling into the river in a bar street.
After all, judging from the fact that Zhang Guowen deliberately avoided surveillance, finding Zhang Guowen's whereabouts seems to be the key to the problem.
Not long after, Gu Chen received the surveillance video and location from He Junchao.
So we took everyone and continued to Heping Road.
…
…
10:40 am.
Gu Chen parked his car in front of a retail store on Heping Road. At this time, Gu Chen took out his mobile phone and based on the final comparison of the surveillance video, he confirmed that the corner location was the place where Zhang Guowen last disappeared.
"That's right, this is it." Gu Chen opened the car door and walked out of the car.
Others also came to Gu Chen one after another.
Everyone looked around and found two surveillance cameras under the eaves at the side corners of the retail store, facing the two doors of the store respectively.
Since the retail store is located at the corner, the surveillance camera just makes up for the blind spot of road monitoring.
Gu Chen was overjoyed and walked directly into the store to find the boss.
"Uncle, excuse me." Gu Chen showed his phone, pointed at Zhang Guowen in the photo and said, "Do you know this person?"
"There are so many customers here every day, how can I know everyone?" The old man sitting on a rocking chair next to the cashier simply glanced at the characters on Gu Chen's phone and said with disdain.
Lu Weiwei quickly walked up to him and continued to ask him: "Uncle, this person died on the river this morning. The cause of death is currently unknown, but the last picture captured by our surveillance is right here in your store."
Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, the old man was stunned.
He changed his arrogant tone, sat up directly and asked: "You said... this person is dead?"
"Yes, that's exactly why we came here." Officer Wang said as he walked over.
The old man clicked his tongue twice, quickly took Gu Chen's phone again and looked at it, and suddenly fell silent.
Gu Chen, Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha looked at each other in confusion and did not dare to disturb him.
After about ten seconds, the old man raised his head to think, then looked at Gu Chen and said, "I have some impression of this person. He has bought cigarettes from my store several times."
"But his family doesn't live here either." Yuan Shasha knew Zhang Guowen's address, so she was very curious.
The old man shook his head: "I don't know about this. Anyway, he just buys cigarettes every time he comes here."
"Then did you find anything wrong with him?" Gu Chen asked again.
The old man scratched his cheek, thoughtfully: "If you want to say something is wrong, there seems to be something wrong. He seems to be waiting for people here all the time."
When Gu Chen heard this, he quickly moved a stool and sat directly opposite the old man. After focusing the law enforcement recorder, he took out the transcript and asked: "Tell me, what is the specific situation."
"Yes." The uncle nodded slightly and said, "Sometimes when buying a pack of cigarettes, he would lean against the door and stare at the building across the street in a daze for a long time."
"Anyway, it's like this every time. I guess his friend lives upstairs right across the street? Who knows?"
"What about the time? About what time period?" Gu Chen asked again after recording the previous information in the case.
The old man looked up at the sky and said with some uncertainty: "Maybe at night? Around seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Sometimes he might come out of a friend's house and happen to pass by me to buy a pack of cigarettes. When smoking,
From time to time, I would look at the floor opposite.”
"Is it that building?" Gu Chen pointed to the opposite floor with his pen.
The old man took a quick look, nodded and said, "Yes, that's the building."
Gu Chen got up, walked to the side door, looked up at the monitoring position, then looked at the side road, and asked the uncle: "Is your monitoring useful?"
"Yes, of course it is useful. It prevents thieves." The old man said.
"Can you show it to us?" Lu Weiwei asked.
The uncle nodded silently: "Of course, but I'm not very good at doing it. The owner of the store next door did it for me, and I don't need it at ordinary times, so..."
"It's okay, we will."
Before the uncle could finish speaking, Yuan Shasha took the initiative to ask for help.
The old man smiled and said: "That's okay, you can go get the surveillance by yourself."
As soon as the words fell, Yuan Shasha and Gu Chen had already arrived at the front desk.
There are three camera devices installed in the store. One is at the entrance of the store, which mainly observes the interior of the entire store from the front desk. There are two cameras under the eaves outside the door, which are used to observe the conditions at the road entrances on both sides.
However, due to the radiation range of the camera surveillance, other locations on the two roads can actually be seen.
This is what Gu Chen expected to see.
What Gu Chen called was another road surveillance. Here, Gu Chen adjusted the screen back to the last time period that He Junchao sent to him for surveillance.
At this moment, following the video posted by He Junchao, Zhang Guowen bypassed the store and entered the blind spot of public surveillance.
But at this time, the store's surveillance camera could still capture Zhang Guowen's back.
At about 7:30 in the evening, he had been lingering in front of the store, his eyes constantly observing the floor opposite, and taking out his mobile phone from time to time, as if he was sending messages or making calls.
But judging from Gu Chen's examination of Zhang Guowen's body this morning, Zhang Guowen's mobile phone seemed to have been lost.
"Who is he contacting?" Lu Weiwei looked a little lost and couldn't help but said: "Could it be the person he is waiting for? There is no Taoist yet, right?"
"It's possible." Officer Wang nodded silently and continued: "Let's see how he is doing."
In the following period, Zhang Guowen seemed to have gone into the store to buy some food, and after standing on the roadside to clean up the food, he also entered the unit building opposite.
But after that, he quickly came out again and continued waiting on the roadside.
However, when the surveillance footage reached around 8:40, Zhang Guowen seemed to realize something.
He immediately left the door of the shop and hid in an alley near the shop.
Not long after, two familiar figures appeared.
Officer Wang was stunned and quickly rubbed his eyes: "This...aren't these my cousins Wang Shaofei and Xu Yun? Why are they here?"
"Are you stupid, Lao Wang? You asked your cousin Wang Shaofei to send Xu Yun home yesterday, have you forgotten?" Lu Weiwei also said teasingly from the side.
Officer Wang patted his head and suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes, I asked him to send Xu Yun home."
"Look." Before Officer Wang could react, Gu Chen suddenly pointed at the surveillance screen and said: "The floor your cousin Wang Shaofei and his colleague Xu Yun entered is the building opposite the shop, and the same building Zhang Guowen just entered.
The entry point is the same."
"Could it be...could it be that the person Zhang Guowen was waiting for was actually Xu Yun?" Lu Weiwei seemed to have guessed something and quickly looked at everyone.
The scene... suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was attentive and fixed their eyes on the screen.
Wang Shaofei and Xu Yun went in, but not long after, Wang Shaofei walked out of the floor, took a taxi on the street and left the scene.
Not long after Wang Shaofei left, a figure slowly walked out of the alley.
This person is none other than Zhang Guowen from before.
"I'm really waiting for Xu Yun." Gu Chen leaned back and said thoughtfully: "Last night, I found that Xu Yun's cell phone kept ringing."
"There were phone calls and text messages, but she hung up in the end. I also asked her if her family was anxious for her to go home, but Xu Yun's answer at that time was yes, so we all let Wang Shaofei
I'm sending Xu Yun home."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, we all knew about this last night." Lu Weiwei said.
Yuan Shasha also asked: "Could it be that... the person who has been calling and sending messages to Xu Yun last night is really Zhang Guowen? Then what is he looking for Xu Yun for?"
"What else can be done?" Officer Wang frowned and reasoned based on experience: "I think the relationship between Zhang Guowen and Xu Yun is definitely not that simple."
"After all, didn't Xu Yun also say that when Gu Chen called before? Zhang Guowen is his master, and he has a somewhat entangled relationship with many female colleagues in the unit."
Looking back at everyone, Officer Wang added: "Also, Xu Yun also told Gu Chen when she was on the phone that Zhang Guowen likes to tell sexy jokes and hang out in nightclubs."
"So fundamentally speaking, Zhang Guowen is quite open-minded and a bit playful, so it seems a little less innocent for him to find Xu Yun at night."
Gu Chen nodded slightly, agreeing with Officer Wang's opinion, and said: "Senior Brother Wang is absolutely right, but there is still a prerequisite. Does Xu Yun live with his family?"
"If so, then it doesn't mean that Zhang Guowen came to see her late at night. But if Xu Yun lives alone and does not live with his family at all, it can only mean that the relationship between the two people may not be as good as ours."
It’s as simple as you imagine.”
"After all, what kind of person is Zhang Guowen? Xu Yun is telling us this information. We still don't know whether it is the real situation."
"That's easy." Seeing Gu Chen's new idea, Lu Weiwei said directly: "Ask the doorman at the apartment, maybe they know the situation."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Officer Wang couldn't sit still, feeling that there were signs of investigation clues.
It was previously said that it was an accidental fall into the river, but it seems that this reason is far-fetched and cannot withstand scrutiny.
There are now various signs that Zhang Guowen's death seems to hide many secrets.
But what exactly it is, we still don’t know.
With all kinds of questions, Gu Chen led everyone to the apartment where Xu Yun lived.
This entrance is actually the entrance to the underground parking lot, but you can take the elevator from the underground parking lot directly to the entrance of the apartment building.
There is only one railing at the entrance, and vehicles cannot enter or exit.
Gu Chen noticed that someone in front of him entered the underground parking lot through the pedestrian passage without registering anything.
It can be seen that strangers can enter this underground parking lot at will.
Gu Chen found the doorman and showed him the photo of Xu Yun sent by He Junchao: "Uncle, do you know the rental information of this female tenant?"
"Who is this person?" The uncle opened the window, squinted his eyes, and then nodded silently: "This person has just moved here not long ago, and the key card she applied for some time ago was given to her by me."
"It's good to know each other." Lu Weiwei also stepped forward and continued to ask him: "Sir, do you know the situation of this female tenant? Does she live on her own? Or does she share a room with others?"
"Single girl, I think you live alone. This is a single apartment. In fact, the space is not large. It is usually shared by one or two people, but there are many people who can rent it alone."
The doorman seems to know very well, after all, he is an expert in collecting intelligence in the apartment.
Gu Chen nodded slightly and asked, "Do you know which floor and number she lives on?"
The doorman hesitated for a moment, did not speak, but directly opened the drawer and began to take out one of his registration books.
He touched his tongue with his finger and then looked through it carefully.
Soon, the uncle pointed to a place on the form and said: "Yes, she registered for Room 1102, Building B. Her name should be Xu Yun, right?"
"That's right." Feeling that the uncle is still an uncle after all and has a solid memory, Gu Chen nodded and expressed his thanks: "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome." The uncle shook his head and asked, "By the way, why are you here looking for her?"
Gu Chen didn't think much and quickly showed Zhang Guowen's photo: "Do you know this person?"
"Who is he?" The doorman frowned slightly and looked out the window thoughtfully: "I have some impression, maybe because I have been here a few times? He looks familiar, but I can't remember who it is."
"Then he didn't register when he entered the apartment?" Officer Wang asked.
The doorman chuckled and said: "Our underground parking lot is open to the public, and cars from outside can come in at will. Therefore, there are also many non-apartment residents who come to park, so registration is generally not required."
But at this point, the uncle still opened his mouth and said: "But there seems to be something wrong with this person."
