Ye Chen took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and there was an unfamiliar number on it.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Liancheng came to his side and asked.
"It's just a phone call..."
Ye Chen looked at the other person and smiled softly.
"Are there any unknown calls during this time period?"
Gu Liancheng looked sideways at Ye Chen, with a somewhat intriguing expression on his face.
"Ye Chen, do you really know nothing about this case?"
Facing Gu Liancheng's questioning, Ye Chen could only smile bitterly.
"If I knew, why would I come to the scene? I've already said it, but this Su Ziheng has something to do with me."
"I'm a little concerned, so I came here..."
Gu Liancheng still looked at Ye Chen doubtfully.
"Hurry up and answer this call. Maybe there is something important."
"Um……"
Ye Chen nodded and pressed the answer button.
"Hello? Who are you?"
"Ye...chen!"
The buzzing sound of electricity passed into Ye Chen's ears. The other party didn't seem to have used a voice changer to reveal his true identity.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
The moment he heard the other party say his name, Ye Chen suddenly became alert.
"Hahaha……"
Due to current interference, the laughter of the person on the other end of the phone sounded more like the voice of a robot.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is...the black wooden box in your hand!"
Ye Chen's face changed drastically when he heard this. He didn't tell anyone except Niu Ergou and others that he had a black wooden box in his hand.
How did the other party know about this?
"what do you want to do?"
Ye Chen knew that at this stage, it was useless to pretend to be confused with the other party. It was better to state his position and attitude directly.
"I thought you would pretend to be crazy and act stupid..."
The other party seemed a little surprised by Ye Chen's direct confession, but then he was relieved.
"Listen, I know you have seven black wooden boxes in your hand. I want all seven of those boxes!"
Ye Chen frowned.
The man on the other end of the phone has a huge appetite.
Do you want to swallow all seven black wooden boxes in one breath...
"What would happen if I said I wouldn't give it to you?"
"snort!"
The other party's original electronically synthesized voice suddenly changed into a hoarse male voice. Needless to say, it was a voice changer.
"I don't recommend that you choose this path. These black wooden boxes are much hotter than you think. The power they represent is beyond the control of a little person like you!"
"If you don't hand it over, more and more tragic things will happen to you, and the opponents you will face will become more and more troublesome."
"Hold on to these things and you will only end up with your family and family destroyed!"
Ye Chen sneered lightly.
"Family ruined? You seem to know me very well..."
The other party seemed to realize that he had made a mistake and quickly stopped talking.
"Anyway, I'll give you a week to think about it. After one week, if I don't get what I want."
"Ye Chen, don't regret it!"
After that, the other party hung up the phone.
Ye Chen looked at the screen of his mobile phone that showed the end of the call, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Fight back!"
Gu Liancheng on the side suddenly said.
"What?"
"I said call back!"
The man's voice was unusually calm.
"Although there is a 80% chance that you won't be able to get through..."
The policeman muttered to himself for a while, and then Ye Chen heard the message from his cell phone - "The number you dialed is not available. Please check the number and dial again..."
"Although I am a little concerned about what the so-called black wooden box you call is..."
Gu Liancheng took off the headset from his ear and sighed softly.
"But it looks like you've been involved in some trouble again..."
He knew that Gu Liancheng had monitored the phone calls between him and the man just now.
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows, his face full of helplessness.
"You also know that there are too many troubles in our line of work."
“Sometimes we even receive death threats that are more serious than this!”
Knowing that Ye Chen didn't want the police to get involved in the matter, Gu Liancheng sneered.
"Okay, okay, I know what you mean."
"Don't worry, this case alone has made us very busy, and we don't have the time to worry about your nonsense anymore!"
Ye Chen quickly shook his head.
"Chief Gu, please don't get me wrong, I definitely didn't mean this!"
Gu Liancheng turned around and glanced at Ye Chen from the corner of his eye.
"I don't care what you mean. After all, I'm a policeman and I only care about the things I'm in charge of."
"But Ye Chen, if I find out that you are related to this case but you didn't report it."
"I'll put you in a detention center for ten days and a half..."
"I still have this little power."
Ye Chen secretly thought that the man in front of him was really not easy to mess with.
But looking at the car wreckage not far away with only the body left due to the explosion, a rickety figure suddenly flashed in Ye Chen's mind.
"Chief Gu! Wait a moment..."
Following Ye Chen's shout, Gu Liancheng stopped his steps and slowly turned around to look at him.
"Could it be that you didn't think of anything after listening to my words?"
Ye Chen reluctantly showed a smile and looked at Gu Liancheng.
"Oh... look at my memory... I suddenly remembered a person. Maybe he really has something to do with this case."
"But as you just said, when you police handle cases, you always need evidence in everything."
"I don't have any evidence at the moment, so of course I don't dare to say it outright and embarrass everyone!"
"But..."
"How about this! It's still the same as the Yan family's time! I'll find the evidence!"
"For the rest, I hope everyone at the Shen City Police Department can help me!"
Gu Liancheng looked at Ye Chen, and then looked at the wreckage of the police car behind him.
…
Shen City, Chunfeng Senior Club.
"Brother Ye, you rushed to find us all, what are you doing?"
Da Zhuang sat in the private room, looked at the people around him, and asked Ye Chen who was standing at the door.
Da Zhuang, Niu Ergou, Xia Bingbing and Song Weilong, all the people in Shen City who knew that he was collecting black wooden boxes were basically here.
Because this matter is quite sensitive, Ye Chen's collection progress and collection time are tightly sealed.
He also believed that the group of people in front of him were not people who spoke freely.
As for betraying him...
He didn't even think about it.
The reason why Ye Chen called everyone together was to discuss countermeasures!
