I am a super cop

Chapter 373 Fake News

Inside the living room.

Everyone surrounded Gu Chen.

Gu Chen also held two pieces of tape with both hands, and showed them in front of everyone.

"Can you see the difference between these two pieces of tape?" Gu Chen asked.

"The difference?" Gan Wenfeng looked at Gu Chen suspiciously, then turned his gaze to the tape in his hand.

"The two sheets of tape are the same model, eh? No." Gan Wenfeng suddenly paused, his eyes widened: "This..."

"That's right." Lu Weiwei quickly said, "The models of these two pieces of tape are indeed the same, but the objects covered on them are obviously different."

Afterwards, Lu Weiwei pointed to the tape in Gu Chen's left hand and said, "Like this tape, it's covered with all kinds of stolen goods from the cracks in the windows. When you tear it off, you will bring a lot of stolen goods."

Looking at Gu Chen's right hand, Lu Weiwei said again: "Only half of this tape has the same problem as the tape stuck to the window gap, but the other half is very clean."

"Senior Sister Lu." Gu Chen looked at Lu Weiwei, smiled and said, "You are right, this is the crux of the problem, because this is not a secret room at all."

"No...not the secret room?" Gao Cheng hurriedly got closer.

When he carefully looked at the tape in Gu Chen's hand, he suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

"That's right." Gu Chen smiled, looked back at the damaged door frame, and said, "The tape stuck to the door, the other half that is open, has no trace of sticking objects."

"It can be seen from this that the door is not sealed, but the murderer deliberately pasted tape on the door, making us mistakenly believe that the tape was torn off when the door was hit. It can be seen that Zhang Xiaoya did not commit suicide, but the real The murderer was someone else."

Hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Gao Cheng and Gan Wenfeng were suddenly stunned.

The two hadn't checked the scene carefully just now.

Although he also followed Gu Chen's footsteps and walked around each room, he only searched some household items roughly to confirm whether Zhang Xiaoya was the only one living in the room.

Gu Chen, who can be glued to the door, was the first to notice such a small detail.

It feels like being preempted by the police in Jiangnan City again...

In this way, it can be basically concluded that the deceased Zhang Xiaoya did not commit suicide, and Gu Chen has already taken the case a big step forward.

Gu Chen looked at Zhang Xiaoya's wound, it was already starting to stink, which means that the time of death of the deceased Zhang Xiaoya was most likely three days ago, after Liu Xun, the driver of the No. 11 bus, took her to the station for the last time.

Otherwise, the next morning, Zhang Xiaoya would definitely show up on Liu Xun's No. 11 bus on time.

"After Zhang Xiaoya was killed, the murderer pretended to commit suicide." Gu Chen folded his hands on his chest, pinched his chin with his right hand, walked around Zhang Xiaoya's body, and said: "Then she may be the same as what happened last week." It is related to the theft case of the gold store in the high-tech zone."

"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei walked up to him with a slight frown, and asked weakly: "So, you think he is with the murderer, that is, the gangster who stole the gold shop?"

"It's possible." Gu Chen was thoughtful, then looked at Police Officer Wang, and asked him, "Senior Brother Wang, do you know why the murderer left this bag of gold jewelry?"

"There are several possibilities." Based on Gu Chen's previous deduction, Police Officer Wang also quickly understood the crux of the problem.

"The first situation is that after the murder, the murderer was busy cleaning up and arranging the scene, ignoring the bag of gold jewelry on the ground. Of course, this possibility is unlikely."

"What about the second type?" Lu Weiwei asked him quickly.

"The second is that the murderer deliberately left this bag of gold jewelry here, so that Zhang Xiaoya was found dead in the house later. The people who felt the scene at the first time mistakenly thought that Zhang Xiaoya was the real murderer of the gold theft, and finally forced the police to Under strong psychological pressure, he chose to commit suicide in a secret room."

"Of course, this is also a way for the murderer to confuse the police, so that he can get away with it and let Zhang Xiaoya be the scapegoat."

Gu Chen smiled and said: "Brother Wang's analysis is very good. If I have to judge, I am more inclined to the second case."

"I think so too." Gao Cheng nodded quickly, and said, "The second case is more likely. This Zhang Xiaoya is very likely to be the murderer's scapegoat. After the murderer killed Zhang Xiaoya, he disguised her as stealing gold jewelry of criminals committed suicide under pressure."

"But these small details on the gate just revealed the cunning of the murderer. Fortunately, we discovered it in time."

Gu Chen took the adhesive tape, put it on the back of his hand and pasted it a few times, and said, "Actually, the main reason is that this adhesive tape is very sticky. It can still remove a lot of impurities and dust when it is pasted in the gap of the window. Why not stick it on the door?" ? The reason is very simple, the murderer is just to confuse."

Gu Chen then glued two pieces of tape to the corner of the dining table, and the two pieces of tape were only stuck on one side, and continued: "But this kind of tape has a common sense problem, that is, after one side is stuck for a long time, the other The side will naturally tilt up."

"So the other side of the adhesive tape stuck to the door will naturally rise up. After the murderer closed the door, the other side of the adhesive tape will not stick to the door frame. This has caused the current situation."

Gu Chen admired the murderer's brains very much, but because of the flaws in the characteristics of the tape, the murderer still showed his flaws.

However, the conjecture that Gu Chen took for granted shocked Gao Cheng, and even made Gan Wenfeng feel ashamed.

Discovering small details is often in a flash, but why is it not yourself who first discovered the problem?
"It seems that, Gu Chen, you still have a certain strength in your observation of small details." Gan Wenfeng, who has been unwilling to admit the facts, couldn't help but speak out what he kept in his heart.

Lu Weiwei on the side sneered twice: "What? Don't you think my Junior Brother Gu is born with the ability to control the case?"

"It should be luck, right?" Compared to Gan Wenfeng's resignation, Gao Cheng seemed to be more face-saving: "Actually, let us conduct an investigation, and we can find these tricks, but it just so happened that Gu Chen discovered it first."

"That's right!" Gu Chen also smiled: "I just discovered by chance that this can be discovered by an ordinary person."

Lu Weiwei, who was standing aside, laughed at that moment.

This made Gao Cheng even more embarrassing.

Because this case, or this incident, was led by Gu Chen from the very beginning.

Including the conversation with Liu Xun, the driver of the No. 11 bus. From his depressed state of mind, he learned about Zhang Xiaoya's mysterious disappearance.

And Gu Chen only used a screenshot of the car's video surveillance overlooking it, and was able to draw a sketch of Zhang Xiaoya's face in 6 minutes.

What is even more surprising is that it took only 10 seconds for the sketch to be converted to the computer to match the real information of Zhang Xiaoya among the massive information.

When arriving at Zhang Xiaoya's rented place, Gu Chen was the first to smell the smell of blood.

Logically speaking, after the blood coagulates, it should be difficult to smell this bloody smell, but Gu Chen can.

This is incredible.

What's even more bizarre is that when everyone was talking about the key issue of the secret room, it was Gu Chen who first discovered the trickiness of the tape, and combined with the bag of scattered gold jewelry, deduced the process of Zhang Xiaoya's death.

Gu Chen seemed to complete this chain of work inadvertently, but Gao Cheng knew it very well.

Without super strength as the foundation, luck will not come to you.

Gao Cheng's expression changed when he saw Gu Chen.

A small third-level police superintendent can actually lead the case and discover the story behind the case.

And all of this was just because of an accidental experience that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei had on the bus when they were shopping yesterday.

A face-to-face communication leads to a murder case.

Gao Cheng really admires such Gu Chen.

"Senior Brother Gao." Seeing Gao Cheng looking up at the ceiling again, as if he was thinking about something, Gu Chen hurriedly called him.

"Ah?" Gao Cheng reacted instantly.

"What are you thinking?" Gu Chen asked him with a smile.

"No." Gao Cheng also waved his hand and said, "Gu Chen, you did a great job, but the murderer hasn't been arrested yet, which gives me a bit of a headache."

"Old Gao." Officer Wang also stood up and said, "It's okay. Now that the missing Zhang Xiaoya has been found, the rest of the work will be easy. According to Zhang Xiaoya's network, I will start to investigate. I don't believe that I can't find the murderer. murderer."

"Yes, this person must be someone Zhang Xiaoya is familiar with. Otherwise, why did the murderer kill Zhang Xiaoya? And deliberately scattered these gold jewelry on the ground to blame Zhang Xiaoya?"

Gan Wenfeng took out the evidence collection bag, took pictures of the stolen goods and numbered them, and said, "I don't know if the murderer is still in Jiangbei City. If this murderer is allowed to stay in Jiangbei, it may be a hidden danger. We must find him as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, Gan Wenfeng involuntarily looked at Gu Chen.

the reason is simple.

Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei would unconsciously look at Gu Chen every time after they finished speaking, as if they were asking for Gu Chen's opinion.

Under the influence of this atmosphere, Gan Wenfeng also began to have this little habit.

In the past, he would only look at Gao Cheng, but now Gao Cheng seems to be marginalized, and he feels uncomfortable.

"Cough cough." Gao Cheng deliberately coughed twice, and hurriedly asked Gu Chen, "Gu Chen, what do you think about this kind of case? Is there any good way to find the murderer?"

Gu Chen asked: "How much is the difference between this bag of gold jewelry and the gold jewelry stolen from the gold shop in the high-tech zone?"

"This..." Gao Cheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "This bag may not even be worth one-tenth of it."

"That is to say, there are still a lot of gold jewelry on the murderer's body?" Gu Chen asked again.

Gao Cheng nodded: "You are right."

Lu Weiwei stared at Gu Chen, smiled and said, "Does Junior Brother Gu have any good methods?"

Lu Weiwei's OS is similar to Gu Chen's, she can deeply understand Gu Chen's every move, even an expression or a word.

When Gu Chen asked Gao Cheng, he just wanted to know the overall situation of the gold shop theft last week.

Judging by his indifferent expression, it is obvious that he also has a countermeasure in mind.

"Zhang Xiaoya is the real culprit in the robbery of the gold store in the high-tech zone last week." Gu Chen said.

"What?"

"What did you say?"

"Is Zhang Xiaoya the real murderer?"

"But you just said that she was framed by others, why did you change your words and say she was the murderer? Gu Chen, did you make a mistake?"

Everyone was shocked by Gu Chen's words, and everyone felt incredible.

This clue was also found. The tape stuck to the door was obviously planned by the murderer, but why did Gu Chen suddenly overturn all the previous inferences?
"Gu Chen!" Gao Cheng was also a little angry, feeling dizzy by a small third-level police superintendent, he quickly suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked lightly: "Why did you suddenly change your mind? This Xiaoya is obviously not a gold shop The perpetrator of the robbery?"

Gu Chen said with a smile: "It's possible that she is, she may be with the murderer, and because the murderer is afraid of being exposed, she kills to silence her."

Hearing what Gu Chen said, everyone was dumbfounded again.

Don't turn too fast...

"What Junior Brother Gu said... seems to make sense." Although Lu Weiwei was a little confused, she still stood in Gu Chen's position for no reason.

At this moment, Gan Wenfeng quit, and quickly retorted: "But Zhang Xiaoya obviously didn't commit suicide."

"I know she didn't commit suicide." Gu Chen paused, then suddenly smiled and said, "But you have to say that she committed suicide, and it's because after the theft of the gold store's property, she faced the police at various toll booths and intersections." The deterrent inspection with cards, unable to bear the strong pressure, committed suicide in fear of crime."

"Ah?" Gao Cheng was taken aback for a moment, as if he had returned to the top of the mountain from the abyss just now, and hurriedly asked Gu Chen, "You mean... to release fake news?"

"That's right." After walking around the scene twice, Gu Chen said, "Since the murderer used this trick to confuse us, then we might as well just follow the trick and say that the case has been solved."

"In addition, we must closely monitor the gold trading market in Jiangbei City and surrounding areas, especially the gold trading in the black market. Once someone is found selling a large amount of gold jewelry, he will be arrested immediately for investigation."

After thinking for a while, Gu Chen said again: "In addition, I suggest canceling the checkpoint in Jiangbei City immediately, and told the news that the theft of a gold store in the high-tech zone in Jiangbei City last week has been solved, and the gangster committed suicide in fear of crime, so that the mastermind behind the scenes Let your guard down and come out and trade."

Gao Cheng, who was said to be in a daze by Gu Chen, was also in a daze at the moment.

If the murderer is not caught, you declare the case closed?Want to tell fake news to the media in Jiangbei City and let these mainstream media report it?

Feeling that Gu Chen's operation was too crazy, Gao Cheng hurriedly said again: "Gu Chen, your method is too risky, isn't it? The amount of gold theft this time is huge, and the media attention itself is very high. Isn't it true that you have come here? Are you going to make trouble all over the city?"

"That's right!" Gan Wenfeng on the side couldn't sit still: "Gu Chen, it's not up to our Wutong branch to decide to withdraw the inspection post. After all, this case is not expensive for our Wutong branch to handle. It belongs to the Gaoxin District branch. matter, we will at most assist in the investigation.”

"Besides, if you do this, our Wutong branch will be in front of the Jiangbei media in the future, so how can we mess around? Why don't we be scolded to death by these people?"

It feels like this Gu Chen is a bit of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

If this is an ordinary superintendent, how can he dare to make such a statement? This is to lead the mobilization of the entire police force in Jiangbei City?
If it succeeds, it's okay, but I'm afraid it won't succeed. In the end, the entire Wutong branch will be implicated, and it will be miserable if it is laughed at by colleagues.

So Gao Cheng thought it over and over again, and felt that such an action was a bit risky.

Seeing that Gao Cheng and Gan Wenfeng were both hesitant, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask them: "Senior Brother Gao, Senior Brother Gan, let me ask you, did you gain anything by setting up checkpoints at toll booths and intersections?"

Gao Cheng and Gan Wenfeng looked at each other, and both shook their heads at the same time.

"That's right, it doesn't work. Which fool would carry a lot of gold through toll booths and intersection checkpoints? Could it be that this murderer will take the initiative to give away the head?"

When Gu Chen said this, Gao Cheng felt that it made sense.

Before the Jiangbei High-tech Branch received this case, because of the huge amount of money, it was also reported by the mainstream media in Jiangbei.

In front of the media, Jiangbei High-tech Sub-bureau was very passive, so they asked the city bureau to ask the police stations of each sub-bureau to help check the intersections, trying to find the thief in Jiangbei City.

But a week later, an internet fugitive from other places was caught by mistake, and other clues related to the gold case hardly appeared.

This made the Gaoxin Sub-bureau very passive. After all, the gangsters left very few clues, so it was undoubtedly futile to search the whole city.

After thinking about it, Gao Cheng asked weakly, "Gu Chen, are you sure about doing this?"

"Not sure!" Gu Chen shook his head.

"What?" Gao Cheng was shocked, "You...you are not sure, so you still let us do this?"

Gu Chen smiled and said, "If you feel unsure and don't do it, wouldn't you be even more unsure? The reason why the murderer dares to get away with it is because he feels that his technique of clearing the traces of the scene makes your police unable to track him down."

"And the murderer killed Zhang Xiaoya, and designed this rental house as a secret room, and used a small bag of gold jewelry as bait, so as to confuse the direction of the police's investigation."

"The murderer is so deliberate that he is deliberately challenging the strength of the police, which is obviously a bit arrogant."

"That's right." Gan Wenfeng was also filled with righteous indignation when he heard this: "This guy is obviously teasing our Jiangbei police. Obviously, he knows that we have nothing to do with him."

Gu Chen nodded: "Brother Gan is right, a murderer who is so conceited, of course wants to see the result of his careful design, and if he cannot wait for the result he wants, he will definitely be more cautious."

"At this time, if you want to catch him, it may be harder than reaching the sky. In this case, why not obey him and close the case as if you were looking for a murderer."

"Coupled with the repeated reports of Jiangbei's mainstream media, I believe that the man behind the scenes will definitely believe it. After all, the mainstream media's reports are authoritative."

"That's right." Police Officer Wang also agreed: "Gu Chen's idea is very good. If you want to convince the black hand behind the scenes, you should add mainstream media reports on this wave of operations, otherwise it will be difficult to convince him."

"Combined with the mainstream media's reports, and then canceling those checkpoints, then the mastermind behind the scenes will obviously relax their vigilance." Lu Weiwei couldn't help but express Gu Chen's thoughts.
