I am a super cop

Chapter 183 Don't go out after dark

Gu Chen's work today was indeed not very smooth.

First of all, lurking in the forest did not wait for the man in black to appear, wasting a night in vain.

Secondly, the man in black changed his previous course of action and hurt people in Xinghua Village for the first time, and this time the random target turned out to be a crew member.

And just last night and this morning, Director Guo specially comforted all the staff of the crew, telling everyone to work hard and not worry about the incident of the man in black hurting others, and said that this was not an attack against the crew.

But putting these words into the present, the rhythm of slapping the face is appropriate.

The man in black not only appeared in Xinghua Village, but also cut a crew member.

Now the staff of the crew quit, and spontaneously came to the door of the village committee to ask for an explanation...

Director Guo is at a loss what to do now, seeing Gu Chen is like seeing his own father.

In comparison, it is much easier to dump the burden on Gu Chen.

Gu Chen didn't think about what the scene would be like, whether the crew could continue filming after the wounding incident happened.

In addition to today's wounded, there are two other people who are being treated. It feels like the murderer is sparing no effort to create panic.

"Comrade police." Director Guo didn't have the domineering voice of last night, and he asked for help softly: "Look at this murderer, he came to Xinghua Village and injured one of our photographers. This guy is like a ghost. He came and went without a trace, if we don't find him, our crew may have to evacuate, but I can't explain this loss to the producer."

"Don't worry." Gu Chen comforted him first, and then asked, "Who are the witnesses?"

"Witnesses?" Director Guo thought briefly for a few seconds, then raised his head and said to the crowd, "Who was there when Xiao Liao was injured? Come out and tell us about the situation."

In the crowd, a few people chattered and chattered a few words before breaking through the crowd and coming out.

"When Xiao Liao was injured, the few of us went there after hearing the movement." A tall and thin man said.

Director Guo hurriedly introduced: "These are from the eighth film crew, and they are from the same department as Xiao Liao, and they were the first to discover Xiao Liao's injury tonight."

"Then have you seen what the man in black looks like?" Lu Weiwei who came after him also turned on the law enforcement recorder and asked.

"Not really." Another witness also shook his head and said, "When we arrived, the man in black slashed Xiao Liao's chest severely. When we saw us appear from the other side of the alley, the man in black It was just a run-up, stepped on a few dilapidated wooden boxes beside the alley, jumped over the wall and escaped."

"Are you still going to fly over the wall?"

After Xu Lang heard such remarks, the BGM image with "A Laugh from the Sea" began to appear in his mind.

"Comrade policeman, this man in black must still be in Xinghua Village, please find him." The old village chief looked at Gu Chen with a sad face.

For so many years as the village head, I have never encountered such a strange thing.

People in the village were attacked one after another, and now even the crew members are not spared.

The old village chief is helpless now, and can only turn to the police for help...

Gu Chen smiled and said, "Can you let the witnesses take me to the scene?"

All the people around who came to discuss the explanation are now silent.

Looking at the young trainee policeman in front of him, many people were not convinced when he directed everyone to do things.

But at any rate, they are the police, so they can only turn to the police for help in this kind of matter.

"I can lead the way." The tall and thin man raised his hand.

Gu Chen nodded: "Very well, let's go now."

Several people did not stay for a moment, and set off directly to the scene of the incident.

While the others consciously made way for a passage, they couldn't help pointing at Gu Chen's back.

"Is this young man a policeman?"

"Is he okay? Looks younger than me?"

"You don't know him well just by looking at him, right? This man's name is Gu Chen. He is a trainee policeman who just came to Furong Police Station not long ago. He has handled many cases."

"Yeah, I've seen his report on the news, even the old policeman has to give him a little face, have you seen the older policemen just now, the ones who have been following him, Those are his leaders."

"If he's really powerful, find out this hurtful man in black, so we won't have to worry about it every day."

"Anyway, don't go out after dark."

The more everyone talks, the more terrifying it becomes...

What the man in black brings to Xinghua Village and the crew is fear, an unknown sense of fear that does not know when the disaster will strike.

Now I feel that when I go out to go to the toilet, I have to gather in groups.

On the other side, Gu Chen followed several witnesses to the alley where the incident happened.

The architectural layout of Xinghua Village is actually very standardized, the alleys in it are also very neat, and every household has a small yard.

According to eyewitnesses, the photographer named Xiao Liao was only attacked at the intersection when he returned to the villager's home where he lived after saying goodbye to his companions.

"This place is really weird. There are street lights all around, but this section of the road is not." Gu Chen simply looked at the surrounding environment.

Indeed, the killers were particular about who they picked and where they struck.

This section of the road belongs to the corner of the alley, and it is also a blind spot. Although there is a street light, it can be seen that the bulb has been damaged.

"Everyone was saying goodbye at this intersection. We heard screams in front of us and turned back immediately. Then we saw the murderer fleeing over the wall, and Xiao Liao, who had been stabbed several times, was lying on the ground." Gao The thin man simply restored the scene of what he saw.

There was still a pool of blood on the ground...

On the wall, there are a few incomplete footprints of kicking legs, and the wooden box on the ground obviously has traces of being moved.

"This dilapidated box was originally supposed to be here." Officer Wang also quickly found the clue according to Gu Chen's gaze.

"Yes." Lu Weiwei shone the light of the flashlight, squatted down to examine carefully: "According to the moved position, the murderer can guarantee to climb over the wall from here."

As soon as the words were finished, Gu Chen jumped onto the wooden box with a brisk step, and then jumped onto the fence with a light kick. After looking at the situation in the yard, he finally showed that he really did.

"Junior Brother Gu, what did you see?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked, also wanting to look up and see what happened.

"I already know why he moved the wooden box to this position."

"Why?" Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang asked in unison.

"Because the original position of the wooden box was full of cacti under the corresponding wall, so the man in black wanted to avoid these things, so he moved the wooden box to the wall without cacti." Gu Chen rested his chin and meditated .

"Does that mean that the man in black is very familiar with this alley, and he has already arranged the escape route after committing the crime?" Xu Lang also expressed his opinion.

"Senior Brother Xu is right." Gu Chen nodded in agreement.

From Gu Chen's point of view, after being able to hurt someone, he immediately jumped over the wall and escaped, and avoided the cactus accurately. This is obviously because he came here to investigate the route before.

And if the murderer is from the same village, there is no need to investigate at all. He can know the corner of this alley, the street lamp has already been damaged, and there are cacti under the wall.

As for whether the murderer is a crew member, Gu Chen can already rule it out.

The early crew of the crew, that is, a group of people including Hu Mengyao, only came to Xinghua Village a week ago to prepare for the work.

However, it is generally impossible to have an absolute understanding of every location and every alley in Xinghua Village in a very short period of time.

What's more, in the fence of others, the existence of cacti can't be seen from the door at all.

It can't be said that the staff of the crew have to dig through everyone's yards in order to do the preliminary work?

And even in the normal shooting these days, the staff of the crew are all on duty, there are no idlers at all, and those who wander around the village have long been noticed.

But I asked many people in the village during the day, and most of the local residents did not find such a suspicious person.

From this point of view, the scope of the search seems to have been greatly reduced, and the murderer must be from Xinghua Village.

Moreover, he is agile and good at using knives.

According to the exclusion method, the elderly in the village can be excluded, children can be excluded, women are also unlikely, and then excluded based on some characteristics, and the only villagers who may be the murderer are only a dozen or so.

"It shouldn't be difficult to find the murderer among twenty or so people?" Gu Chen asked himself.

Lu Weiwei was puzzled: "Could it be that Junior Brother Gu already knows who the murderer is?"

"We can't be sure yet, we can only wait and see." Gu Chen didn't have much to say, only feeling that he was one step closer to the murderer.

If you have never met the man in black before, then your understanding of him can only be limited to the dictation of other witnesses.

Through the basic layout of this alley, Gu Chen can basically determine that the murderer must be from the village.

There were not so many twists and turns. The next day, Gu Chen went to the old village head and asked for the village roster, and asked the village head about the character traits of the more than 20 suspicious people in the village.

So seven or eight more were ruled out...

Among the remaining [-] people, the degree of similarity is relatively high and it is not easy to exclude them.

"Are you sure you are one of these people?" Officer Wang, who was sitting in the office of the village committee, couldn't help asking.

"I just suspect, but there is no evidence." Gu Chen rested his chin thoughtfully.

If the man in black is not found as soon as possible, then when night falls, anyone who is alone may become the target of the man in black again.

Just as he was thinking, a middle-aged man with a square face walked in, holding a big watermelon in his hand.

"Lucky everyone, the village chief asked me to bring some watermelon to the police officers to quench their thirst."

"I'm sorry, village chief." Lu Weiwei's eyes lit up when she saw the watermelon, she stood up quickly, and came to the table of the Eight Immortals.

The man took out a watermelon knife from the kitchen of the village committee hut and held it in his hand.

Then, holding the melon in one hand and the knife in the other, he completed a series of operations in his hand, cut the watermelon into sharp teeth from the middle, and then put it on the table and pulled it gently, and the two halves of the watermelon suddenly bloomed like two flowers flowers.

The man randomly took a piece from the tines and handed it to Lu Weiwei: "Here."

"Thank you." Lu Weiwei took the melon, took a sip slowly, and immediately said, "It's so sweet."

"This way of cutting melons is a bit special." Police officer Wang also came over, watching the man cut the watermelon into a work of art, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The man waved his hand: "What's the point? I also learned from others. There are still a few in our village who can cut to this level."

"That is to say, you are not the only one who has mastered this kind of saber technique?" Gu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, staring at the blade in the man's hand.

The middle-aged man was obviously taken aback by Gu Chen's gaze...

This look seems to be able to see through the little secrets in his heart.

The man just looked at Gu Chen for two seconds, and he already felt shuddering.

"Police...Comrade policeman, do you have any questions?" The man hesitated for a moment, but he still took the initiative to ask.

"No problem. I know your name is Liu San. You are the accountant in the village. You used to butcher pigs..."

Gu Chen told all kinds of things about Liu San at once, which surprised Liu San: "So you know so many things about me?"

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded, and continued to ask: "But now I want to know, who are the people with your sword skills? Can you help me identify them?"

Liu San laughed at the time: "I see, the police comrades want to see who among these people may be the man in black, right?"

Gu Chen nodded and said nothing.

"Okay, but, first of all, let me explain that I am definitely not the man in black." Liu San also hurriedly put out the exemption clause, as if he would also be included in the suspicion list: "I heard that the man in black is strong, but I Even running a step is full of body fat shaking, I am not that powerful."

"I didn't say it was you." Gu Chen actually didn't doubt Liu San, he could be ruled out from his potbellied figure.

At the same time, Lu Weiwei took out the village roster and asked the accountant Liu San to help with the selection.

"This, this, and this..."

Liu San selected a total of six people, except for two who were too obese, the other four were on Gu Chen's suspicion list.

"These people's knife skills are quite good. Two of them are chefs, and they are the two fat ones."

Seeing that Gu Chen lowered his head in deep thought and didn't respond, Liu San continued to smile naively: "Hehe, these two are impossible, and they are fatter than me. Do you have anything else to ask?"

"Thank you for your cooperation." Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and said, "Don't say what happened today, it is the greatest support for our police to handle the case."

"I understand this, and I will not talk nonsense." Liu San also hurriedly expressed his opinion.

After all, people in the village were injured one after another, and now everyone is looking forward to the police finding the murderer. After all, this is a person who dared to commit crimes under the nose of the police, which can be said to be very arrogant.

Now the crew and the village committee have issued notices: Don't go out when it's dark.

After all the shooting is over, you must return to the room and lock the door to be safe.

But after all, this situation cannot last forever.

If the murderer is not found, the villagers and crew members will have no peace for a day, and everyone begins to question the police's ability to handle cases.

"You can go back first." Officer Wang walked to Liu San's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your cooperation."

Looking at the watermelon on the table: "Oh, and your melon."

"You're welcome, you should." Liu San nodded, very politely: "If you need anything, just go to the financial office of the village committee to find me, I'm here during the day."

After a few simple greetings, Liu San left tremblingly.

Xu Lang and Lu Weiwei immediately walked to Police Officer Wang and Gu Chen.

Everyone made eye contact and seemed to know what the other was thinking.

"Now there are four targets." Gu Chen pointed out the four people who were checked, and continued: "From the perspective of various characteristics, they all fit the characteristics of the man in black, and they are all good at using knives."

"That is to say, if you keep an eye on these four people, it is very likely that you can find the real man in black?" Xu Lang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile.

"There are four of us, and one of us is watching the other at night. Is there any problem?" Police Officer Wang couldn't wait to assign the task.

He knows that this is also the common thought of everyone...

From the two different groups of people, and finally eliminated the four people in front of us, it can be said that there is finally something to look forward to in finding a needle in a haystack.

Everyone nodded silently, maintaining a tacit understanding with each other.

Time is coming to night soon...

After dinner, for the sake of safety, the crew and the village committee carried out the order not to go out after dark.

At about 7 o'clock, except for the three film crews shooting some outdoor shots, the other film crews did not start work at night.

Everyone returns to the room, and those who are bored can play cards, watch TV, and play chess.

However, Gu Chen and his colleagues watched the four suspects walk into the house according to the terrain they investigated during the day.

Subsequently, surveillance was carried out near the door until late at night.

The suspect that Gu Chen was following was named Liu Tiangui, a carpenter who relied on his craft for a living, and loved to smoke. He was nearly forty years old, but he was still a bachelor.

The overall impression given to Gu Chen is that he doesn't like to talk, rarely greets people when they meet, and is a bit autistic.

When other people get together to play cards, he always just stands on the sidelines and does not participate. It can be said that he is a marginal figure.

Minutes passed by...

9pm, 10pm, 11pm.

Several film crews also started to finish work one after another, and everyone started to go together and rush to their respective residences.

At the intersection of alleys, conversations can be heard everywhere, and flashlights illuminate every road.

12 points in the early hours.

The road started to get quiet...

After Gu Chen and three other colleagues confirmed the situation with a text message, they took out a bottle of energy drink and drank it.

The fatigue and anxiety just now began to subside instantly.

It is very necessary for the current situation to maintain enough energy to keep an eye on at night.

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Officer Xu have all greeted each other. If any suspicious movement occurs on either side and a warning is issued, the others must first go to the suspect's room to confirm their identity.

After confirming that it is not the man in black, immediately go to the suspicious direction to support.

For this reason, Lu Weiwei also set up a temporary group. Once there is a situation, everyone must send a message to the group immediately, and the dialog box is first set to voice input mode.

The bright moonlight shone on Gu Chen's body, like a stone statue, waiting alone for the appearance of prey.

However, the time soon came to one o'clock in the morning.

Gu Chen's ears began to hear "rustle", "rustle", as if something was approaching...
