I am a super cop

Chapter 272 Disguise? 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

"Before Zhou Wei reacted abnormally, did anyone come to see him?" After thinking about it, Gu Chen asked again: "For example, relatives, friends?"

The nurse shook her head: "No, the family members of these patients actually don't come to see them many times. I have seen some who don't come to see them once a year. They basically don't care about the patients here except to send money to the hospital. , and this is their pity."

"Yes." After observing the other three patients, Lu Weiwei walked back and said, "If the family members care more, maybe these people will recover faster."

"Lack of care, coupled with mental obstacles, how many people can really recover?"

"Not much." The nurse gave a specific opinion based on her years of experience: "In fact, the recovery rate is not high. This is related to the type and degree of mental illness, and it is also related to the surrounding environment."

"The difference between mental patients and ordinary people is that they have a relatively low threshold for mental illness. People with mental illness may be able to spend their lives normally if they do not encounter setbacks in their lives."

"My God." Lu Weiwei expressed her shock: "Psychopathic constitution? This is the first time I've heard of it. I hope I don't have one, otherwise I will have a mental breakdown due to overwork one day, and I will have to ask the leader to count it as a work-related injury."

"Hehe, you're so humorous." The nurse was a little nervous at first, but after being told by Lu Weiwei, she suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Is it true that people with psychotic physiques are more likely to get sick when they encounter setbacks?" Gu Chen asked her back based on the idea provided by the female nurse.

"Yes." The female nurse nodded and said seriously: "It is undeniable that once encountering setbacks, such setbacks may not be a big deal to ordinary people, but they may have exceeded the threshold for them to get mental illness, and they will get sick."

"So, even if it is cured clinically, problems may still recur. Some of them are transient, such as mental disorders in adolescence. Some people may return to normal after puberty."

"Then this Zhou Wei is obviously not insane in adolescence." Officer Wang also came over and sat on Zhou Wei's bed.

"He was in a stable mood before, but then he made such a big commotion in the cafeteria. Obviously, as you said, he encountered some setbacks, which led to the relapse of his old illness." Gu Chen was also in the female nurse's explanation, Gradually, I became aware of these symptoms.

Seeing Zhou Wei's name pasted by the window, Gu Chen asked, "Is this Zhou Wei's bed?"

"Yes." said the nurse.

"Then can I check?" Gu Chen asked.

The female nurse nodded: "Of course, just wait a moment."

Then she walked to the door of the room, took down a bunch of keys behind the door, and handed it to Gu Chen: "This is the key to Zhou Wei's wardrobe."

"Thank you." Gu Chen eagerly took the key, got up and walked to the closet, and opened the closet with Zhou Wei's name on it.

There are not many things inside, except for a few sets of clothes, there are almost no other extra items.

"Isn't this too space?" Lu Weiwei frowned and said, "Doesn't the patient usually have anything?"

The female nurse shook her head, pointed at the three patients behind her and said, "People like these, they usually just take a walk in the yard, watch TV, and some can play chess. When it's meal time, our nurses will come to look for them. They are like a group of Babies often need someone to take care of them, so they don’t have many belongings.”

"Don't you have a decent pair of shoes?" Gu Chen searched for a long time, but found no trace of the shoes.

"It's like this." The female nurse knew that Gu Chen had doubts, so she had to explain: "Our hospital has a rule that we usually distribute uniform slippers to patients. In order to prevent them from escaping, their previous shoes will be removed. They will be confiscated and will be returned to them when they are discharged from the hospital.”

"No wonder judging from the surveillance, although these people are wearing various coats, they are all wearing hospital slippers." Gu Chen didn't know whether the security guard Zhang Gen really didn't notice it or faked it.

But he felt that there seemed to be many doubts in it, but there was no definite evidence to prove it.

So he can only continue to wait, waiting for the results from the dispatch room, finding these people is the key.

"Why did Zhou Wei take three other companions to plan to escape from the mental hospital together? And these people are wearing slippers, how far can they run? Jiangnan City Mental Health Center is also on the outskirts of the city. Are these people going to the city? "

The easiest way to solve these puzzles is to continue searching along the road back to the city. Of course, first of all, it must be confirmed that these people do not carry the corresponding cash.

Gu Chen recorded all these doubts in a notebook, then turned around and came to the female nurse. The female nurse provided herself with many useful clues.

As she said, Zhou Wei was wary of other people, but not her alone.

"Did Zhou Wei ask you to borrow money these days?" Gu Chen asked straight to the point, several hours had passed since the four patients escaped from the hospital.

Every minute and every second is precious now.

"No." The female nurse answered very positively: "We do not allow patients to carry cash here. Under normal circumstances, part of the cash will be charged into the patient's meal card, and the patient hangs the meal card around his neck with a card. When you need to go shopping, you can directly use the meal card to pay by swiping the card, but we don’t charge too much each time.”

"Of course, this also depends on the patient's family situation. Some patients' families are richer and they give patients a lot of pocket money every month, but most of the time, our hospital does not encourage excessive consumption."

"Since this is the case, then these four patients should not be far away." Gu Chen stood up and saluted the female nurse, "I'm really bothering you for delaying your work for so long."

"No trouble, as long as Zhou Wei and the others can come back safely, that's more important than anything else."

The nurse didn't care.

It's the same whether you work early or late, but if patients get into trouble outside, the nurses who take care of them are actually the most worried.

After leaving Jiangnan City Mental Health Center, Gu Chen drove around slowly to check.

In the car, Officer Wang was actively communicating with colleagues in the dispatch room of the Furong Sub-bureau.

And Lu Weiwei, like Gu Chen, was also looking at both sides of the road.

"Junior Brother Gu, do you think these people really can't escape far?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"Don't worry, if I'm not mistaken, these patients wearing slippers may not be able to get on the vehicle to the city, otherwise the four people's goals are so big, and the dispatch room can't catch them on the road monitoring, it can only show that there is a possible……"

Before Gu Chen finished speaking, Police Officer Wang hung up the phone, and answered immediately: "There is only one possibility, that this group of people is still nearby, they may know that the courtyard and the police are looking for them, and they want to wait until dark before setting off. "

"Senior Brother Wang, you want to go with me."

Gu Chen thought about it many times before, and combined with the results of the transcript inquiry, Officer Wang actually began to understand what Gu Chen meant.

Where the dispatch room can't catch, it must be in the vicinity of the mental health center.

At the intersection ahead, Gu Chen directly turned on the left turn signal, turned around and drove again in the direction of Jiangnan City Mental Health Center.

This time, the car was in third gear, and it was going straight forward on the suburban road at a snail speed.

"Gu Chen, have you discovered something new?" After getting used to Gu Chen's character, Police Officer Wang could also spot some tricks from Gu Chen's expression.

"It's not a new discovery." Gu Chen observed while driving, "Judging from the situation of Zhou Wei and his group escaping from the mental hospital, it's obvious that there is an inner ghost helping them in the mental hospital."

"Inner ghost?" Lu Weiwei was startled at first, and quickly whispered: "You mean, there are people in the hospital who are lying. These people help the mentally ill, get the key cleverly, and pass through the small door of the hospital building smoothly. Run away?"

"Other than that, I can't explain why all the processes are so smooth. Even if the key was stolen by accident, then the circuit repair seems a bit extravagant."

"If this doesn't explain anything, Zhang Gencai in the security room answered the phone call, and the four patients were all wearing slippers. Zhang Gencai, the security guard, can see all of them, but he seems to be selectively blind."

"The most terrible thing is that after Zhang Gencai hung up the phone and found that several people were missing, he didn't choose to confirm. Instead, he didn't choose to confirm until the courtyard found that Zhou Wei and others had disappeared. When he contacted Zhang Gencai and asked him about the situation, Zhang Gencai suddenly realized that this is obviously not logical."

"You suspect him?" Officer Wang, who was sitting in the co-pilot, asked.

Gu Chen stared ahead, shook his head and said, "I doubt him alone, like Director Zou who lost the key, Director Liu, and the nurse who took care of Zhou Wei, they are all the objects of my suspicion."

In order to prove his guess, Gu Chen has actually been observing Dean Zou.

Although it is said that the new official took office, it is not necessary not to inform the patient's family members about this matter.

Moreover, when Gu Chen was in the mental health center, he asked a staff member when he went to the bathroom, and learned that the decision to repair the circuit was a temporary task imposed by Dean Zou on the spur of the moment.

It was not until five hours before the inspection of the circuit that everyone in the courtyard was notified.

This is the first doubtful point. Dean Zou forcibly repaired the circuit, causing some monitoring to stop running.

It may seem like a coincidence, but it seems like a premeditated one.

As for Director Liu, he remained calm from the beginning to the end.

Logically speaking, four patients escaped from the mental hospital. As the director, he should be very anxious.

But under the influence of Gu Chen's expert-level observation ability, Director Liu didn't see the slightest panic at all, as if he knew it would happen.

This surprisingly calm, did not have much doubt about Gu Chen at first.

But now through my questioning of Nurse Zhou Wei, I feel more and more that the people here really have problems?
The nurse who was taking care of Zhou Wei was talking to her more like a performance. Although she was nervous, she suddenly relaxed a lot in front of Lu Weiwei's joke.

Nervous at the beginning, but then because of a joke, can you let go of yourself?

Gu Chenxin said, I believe you are a ghost.

The contrast between personalities means that ordinary actors also need to brew emotions.

The characteristic of this nurse is that the second half of the performance is very normal, and it can be seen that she is an experienced nurse.

But in the first half, the performance was a little stiff.

Although it was true that she felt nervous when she saw the police, she acted a little exaggeratedly.

Gu Chen has handled quite a few cases, and has come into contact with many people of all kinds.

Therefore, in the speech and behavior of ordinary people, they like to observe with a questioning attitude.

Gu Chen informed Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei of the subtle changes he discovered.

The two of them were stunned at that moment...

"What? You suspect them?" Officer Wang asked.

Gu Chen didn't speak, just smiled.

"Gu Chen, could it be that you are too sensitive? No matter how you look at it, these people are fine." Officer Wang felt incredible.

"Although I don't know what Junior Brother Gu said, but Junior Brother Gu can observe so carefully, so he must not be joking."

Although Lu Weiwei hasn't observed it carefully, Gu Chen's eyes are like a window, when you open it, you can have a panoramic view of everything outside.

If he said there was a problem, then there must be a problem.

This is Lu Weiwei's lack of ability, but with capable people, she can always gain a sense of accomplishment.

"I think you, Gu Chen, must be crazy. No matter how you look at it, everyone looks like a suspect?" Police Officer Wang took a couple of sips of wolfberry tea that he carried with him, and continued: "Professional habits are good, but sometimes you can't overdo it." confidence."

"Our first priority now is to find the four escaped suspects. As for whether there are ghosts in the mental hospital, we will talk about that later."

Just as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, Gu Chen suddenly slammed on the brakes and stopped the car firmly on the side of the road.

Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei couldn't help bowing forward.

If it weren't for the seat belts, both of them would probably fly out.

"What's the matter, Gu Chen? Be careful when driving." Police officer Wang, who spilled a truck full of goji berry tea, felt distressed.

However, Gu Chen looked at Police Officer Wang with a face full of joy as if suddenly enlightened, and said, "Senior Brother Wang, hurry up and ask the colleagues in the dispatch room to find the surveillance outside the mental hospital to see what happened to the four mental patients after they escaped." During this period of time, Dean Zou, Director Liu, and the nurse who took care of Zhou Wei, have they entered the inpatient building from the outside, please take a look."

Seeing the urgency on Gu Chen's face, Police Officer Wang was also taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I'll just ask."

"Do you know something?" Lu Weiwei noticed that Gu Chen didn't show too much worry on his face, but it seemed that Officer Wang's sudden reminder made him find some key clues.

A few minutes later, Police Officer Wang received the related video from the police officers in the dispatch room.

Every person who walked into the small gate of the hospital building from the intersection, the police officers in the dispatch city took a small video of about ten seconds and sent it to Police Officer Wang.

"That's right, within a period of time after the four patients left, Dean Zou, Director Liu, and the nurse who took care of Zhou Wei also came to the hospital one after another," Police Officer Wang said.

Lu Weiwei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then don't they eat in the cafeteria of the mental hospital at noon? I remember that nurse once said that except for Zhou Wei who can eat in the cafeteria, the other three patients in the same ward need her to eat from time to time." Prepare meals in the cafeteria and send them to the ward."

"There should be another one, that's right, it's this person." Gu Chen kept flipping through Police Officer Wang's phone, and finally found another person.

"This person is the woman in the white coat standing next to Dean Zou when we first arrived at the dean's office."

"That's right, I also recognize her." After reading it, Lu Weiwei also said: "She also told us at the time that no matter whether these people encountered any unsolvable things, escaping from the mental hospital would be a big deal to the outside world." This is a serious threat as none of these individuals are eligible for discharge and could cause harm to others if we do not locate them as soon as possible."

After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei said again: "She still had an orderly tone at the time. I thought we were here to investigate and handle the case, not to accept your leadership."

"Do you remember this?" Police Officer Wang was also stunned for a moment, and then asked Gu Chen, "Eh? I said Gu Chen, how did you guess that they would enter the inpatient building after the patient left?"

At first I didn't realize it, but now that I think about it, Gu Chen can accurately grasp the four people's movement trajectories, which makes Officer Wang feel a little deliberate and terrified.

"If I'm not mistaken, these four people have never come out since they entered the inpatient building in the morning, but how did they re-enter the inpatient building of the mental health center from the outside? Have you ever thought about this?"

"This……"

Asked by Gu Chen, Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei were stunned for a moment.

This kind of problem seems to have never been thought of by anyone before.

When calling the mental hospital for monitoring, everyone's focus was on those four patients, while the others basically selectively ignored them, and it was impossible to spend too much time paying attention.

"Junior Brother Gu, what do you mean?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, as if thinking of something.

"Is there such a possibility?" Gu Chen calmed down and said calmly: "After these four people entered the mental hospital in the morning, they imprisoned these four patients in a secret place, and then they changed into civilian clothes. , put on slippers, and disguised himself as the four patients."

"Then Dean Zou, among them, used his own key to open the small door of the inpatient building, and quickly left with several other people."

"After that, a few people were nearby again, put on the work clothes they had prepared, pretended to have gone out, and entered the mental hospital in batches... one after another."

"And those four patients never left the hospital from the beginning to the end. Is all this a good show written, directed and performed by these people?"

"Uh……"

Listening to Gu Chen explaining his hypothesis, Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei were dumbfounded.

The brain circuits of the two of them couldn't be switched at all, and they looked a little out of touch with Gu Chen's thinking.

"You... You said that the four escaped patients were disguised by Dean Zou and his group?" Lu Weiwei looked serious, feeling her head buzzing.

"This possibility is not ruled out." Gu Chen once again questioned his soul: "You have seen four patients disguised as discharged patients and their family members, but have you seen the faces of the four clearly on the surveillance screen? "
