I am a super cop

Chapter 570 The Note Murderer

The extended Mercedes-Benz continued to gallop, and after passing through several small roads, it came to the vicinity of an abandoned chemical factory.

But the environment here is far better than Gu Chen imagined.

The surrounding family residential buildings, although old, still have a few lights.

It can be seen that even though the chemical plant no longer has the glory of the past, there are still several local residents living here.

Lao Zhou parked his car firmly on the outside of a fence, then turned around and said, "Mr. Xu, we are here."

"Are you there?" Xu Zhenggang lowered the car window and looked around. Except for a few street lights on the side of the road, there were almost no traces of other vehicles.

Xu Zhenggang looked at Gu Chen beside him again, and said, "Gu Chen, this is the address 24 gave me, isn't it weird?"

"It's really interesting that a person who ranks first in the international racing circuit should live in this kind of place." Gu Chen couldn't tell what was wrong.

However, the surrounding environment gave Gu Chen a sense of outdoor CS.

Moreover, in this area, apart from being backed by a forest park, the surrounding area is almost overgrown with weeds.

Several wreckages of old buses with a sense of age are parked outside the fence at this moment. Gu Chen can basically tell from the faded exterior paint of the old buses that they are some former factory cars.

After being scrapped, all the components are removed, leaving only the frame as a publicity display in the factory area.

After getting off the car, everyone also took out their mobile phones to take pictures of the quiet environment around them.

Lu Weiwei retreated to Gu Chen's side and asked him, "Brother Gu, do you think this 24 is a bad old man?"

"No way?" Gu Chen also smiled and said, "I don't think this 24 family will live here."

"Won't you live here?" Upon hearing Gu Chen's words, everyone immediately turned their attention to Gu Chen.

Ding Liang asked curiously, "Gu Chen, what's your reason for staying here at 24?"

"There's no reason." After Gu Chen looked around for a week, he said indifferently: "I also guessed casually, maybe this 24 is a lonely person, and he just wants to live here to be quiet."

"After all, think about it, isn't it true for all masters? What's more, 24 is still a racing master, but his style of doing things seems lonely."

"So, this 24 is really confusing." Police Officer Wang held his chin thoughtfully, looking at the old family buildings around him, he couldn't help but sigh:
"Looking at these houses, it must have been decades at least, and the walls are covered with creepers. Maybe this 24 is really a strange character."

Gu Chen also nodded, and said with a smile: "So, Gangzi, where is the specific address he gave you?"

"Wait." Xu Zhenggang reached out his hand to fumble in his pocket, and then took a crumpled note in his hand.

Gu Chen leaned against him and looked up the words on the note together, it turned out to be written in block letters.

"No. 4, Unit 1, Building 202?" Gu Chen looked around, and then found the gate not far away, and said, "The gate is there, let's go and have a look."

A group of people walked along the wall for more than ten meters before arriving at the gate of the family area.

The iron door at this moment is covered with rust, and the big lock in the middle has not been opened for a long time, so the rust on it is also particularly obvious.

All access is through a small door in the middle of the iron gate.

When Gu Chen walked into the family area, he found that in a small square not far away, several old people were sitting there, seeming to be chatting with each other.

Originally, there was a circular protruding cement mark on the side of each family building, which was used to mark the number of floors.

However, due to the age, the numbers painted with red paint at the beginning are already in dilapidated condition, and the number of buildings on the floors cannot be identified at all.

"Old man." Gu Chen walked onto the playground with a smile, and asked one of the old men, "Do you know where Building 4 is?"

"Building 4?" The old man seemed a little deaf, but he could still hear Gu Chen's words, so he pointed to a building behind him and said, "There is Building 4 behind this building."

"Are there still people living in those 4 buildings?" Xu Zhenggang also came over.

The old man nodded and said calmly, "Yes, there are two households."

Gu Chen and Xu Zhenggang looked at each other, feeling that they must have found the right place, so they thanked each other, and then returned to the team.

"How is it?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked Gu Chen.

"I've already found out that the 4th building is indeed inhabited, let's go over and have a look now." Gu Chen was already impatient.

Lu Weiwei nodded immediately, and followed Gu Chen and Xu Zhenggang. The three of them took the lead and ran towards Building 4 with small steps.

Others, with the mentality of traveling, took pictures of the surrounding environment.

With the help of Police Officer Wang, Yuan Shasha, Ding Liang, Huang Zunlong and others took some photographic materials with the old building as the background.

After all, this kind of environment with a sense of age is rare in the entire Jiangnan City. If you don't know it, you may think it is the filming base for TV dramas of the era.

"It should be here." Coming to Unit 4 of Building 1, Gu Chen looked at the residents on the second floor, but there was no light on anywhere, and he couldn't help feeling suspicious.

And Xu Zhenggang also took out a note, and after confirming it, he pointed to the residence on the right side of the second floor of Unit [-] and said, "It should be here, but why is there no light?"

"Didn't I leave you a phone number at 24?" Gu Chen turned to ask Xu Zhenggang.

Xu Zhenggang smiled: "This guy is so mysterious, it would be good if he could tell me his address, but you still expect him to leave you his phone number?"

"But didn't you say that the Jiangnan International Circuit will keep the mobile phone numbers of the members, you can use the database to find them." Lu Weiwei also heard it clearly.

Although various memberships are handled at the Jiangnan International Circuit, many drivers' phone numbers will be kept.

Logically speaking, as Xu Zhenggang's shareholder, it is not difficult to get 24's phone number.

Xu Zhenggang seemed to have seen everyone's thoughts, so he said with a smile: "To be honest, I really used my ability to call the number 24."

"And not only did I call him, but I also called and texted him frequently, hoping to get 24 to join our T team."

"But it's strange, this 24 has almost never been replied."

"No reply?" Gu Chen frowned, and said involuntarily, "Then is this number an empty number?"

"No." Xu Zhenggang shook his head, and said with a sure face: "Every time I dial 24, I can get through, but no one answers. Maybe this guy never answers calls from strangers?"

"But I also sent him a text message and revealed my identity to him. I told him that I was W who ranked third in the Jiangnan International Circuit. But even so, there was still no reply on 24."

"So I feel that this 24 should be a particularly aloof character, as if he is looking for defeat alone."

"If it wasn't for you, Gu Chen, who raised your ranking to the same level as 24 this time, 24 might not have appeared at all."

Looking at Gu Chen, Xu Zhenggang also said with a proud face: "So Gu Chen, it was you who stimulated me to 24, and he appeared this time to find you."

"I hope you are not talking nonsense." Gu Chen was dubious about Xu Zhenggang's words.

After all, these are just Xu Zhenggang's one-sided remarks.

And Gu Chen originally didn't want to participate in this excitement, but Xu Zhenggang was his good brother, so he couldn't justify not helping.

Moreover, my colleague Yuan Shasha is also a member of the T team of Jiangnan International Circuit, so she should show some face.

Looking around, Yuan Shasha, Police Officer Wang, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong also rushed over from behind.

Gu Chen didn't think much about it, and walked directly towards Room 1 of Unit 202.

Everyone came to the second floor together, Gu Chen just wanted to knock on the door, but found that the door seemed to be ajar.

Gu Chen immediately withdrew his right hand and looked at Lu Weiwei beside him.

Lu Weiwei also seemed to feel a little weird, and said weakly: "The house is dark and lit, why is the door open? Did 24 know that we are coming to visit tonight?"

Gu Chen didn't speak, but turned his gaze to Xu Zhenggang again.

Xu Zhenggang smiled: "I sent a text message to 24's registered mobile phone number before, informing him that we will visit tonight. I think he should know."

"Then why don't you turn on the light?" Gu Chen was also puzzled.

Xu Zhenggang was stunned, and couldn't explain clearly for a while, so he could only smile lightly and say: "Let's leave this alone, let's go in and have a look before we talk about it."

As soon as the words were finished, Xu Zhenggang was the first to open the door. Using the flashlight that came with his mobile phone, he found the switch by the door, and then turned on all the lights in the room.

At this moment, the family room with two bedrooms and one living room is brightly lit, but there is no one in the living room, giving people a sense of déjà vu that no one has lived in for a long time.

"Is anyone there?" Gu Chen couldn't help calling, but the living room was empty, and no one responded.

Lu Weiwei couldn't help asking curiously immediately: "I said, Junior Brother Gu, could it be that this 24 just left the house, so the door is so ajar?"

"It's possible." Gu Chen did not rule out this possibility.

So Lu Weiwei said again: "Then do you think there will be 24 among the few people chatting on the playground just now?"

Xu Zhenggang was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head: "I don't think so. If there is 24, then when we mentioned Building 4 just now, 24 should have responded, but it didn't."

"And you think, I have already sent a message to 24, telling 24 that we are coming to visit tonight, there is no reason for him not to know? Besides, knowing that so many strangers came to Building 4, even if the playground just now There are 24, won't he come with him?"

"That's the same way." Lu Weiwei nodded thoughtfully, and then walked towards the door of the room.

But when Lu Weiwei just walked to the door, she suddenly screamed, and she shrank back in fright.

"What's the situation?" Gu Chen suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurried to Lu Weiwei's side.

"Corpse... Corpse?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and her body couldn't help moving forward.

According to Lu Weiwei's gaze, Gu Chen turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and shined it on the room.

Only then did Gu Chen realize that there was a figure lying on the floor in the room, and there seemed to be some bloodstains around.

"Is...is it 24?" Gu Chen couldn't help thinking of this person's code name in his mind.

Xu Zhenggang was also stunned, and quickly turned on the lights in the room again.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but gasp. On the floor, there was a middle-aged man lying there.

It seemed that his body was injured by a sharp weapon, and a large pool of blood had dried up on the ground. Gu Chen didn't even think about it, and immediately stepped forward to check the situation.

At this time, Police Officer Wang, Yuan Shasha, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong who heard the movement also rushed to the door.

"What's the situation?" Officer Wang frowned, and quickly looked inside the room.

"It's 24, it's him, it must be." Lu Weiwei was also terrified just now, without any psychological preparation at all.

Police Officer Wang didn't think too much about it, and quickly pushed Xu Zhenggang aside, and the second one approached him.

At this time, Gu Chen had already checked the wound preliminarily, and when he saw Officer Wang approaching, he informed him: "This man seems to have been dead for a few days."

"How many days?" Officer Wang couldn't believe it.

"That's right." Gu Chen pointed to the dried blood on the ground, and then said: "From the characteristics of the blood of the deceased, it is preliminarily inferred that it took at least two days."

"In other words, this man died two days ago, but this legendary 24 reminded Xu Zhenggang today to bring you here to meet him..."

Thinking of this, Police Officer Wang seemed to realize something, and suddenly said in astonishment: "No, this is clearly a bureau."

He looked at Gu Chen and said seriously: "Gu Chen, think about it, maybe the person who informed you to come to Room 4, Unit 1, Building 202, is the murderer, and he is not 24 at all, he just wants to use this information , tricked us all into the family area of ​​this abandoned chemical factory."

"You mean...the one who slipped the note to me was the murderer, and the deceased was 24?" Xu Zhenggang was suddenly stunned, feeling that he couldn't understand this wave of operations at all.

At this moment, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong also came over, looking at the corpse on the ground, they couldn't help frowning.

Just now I came to the abandoned chemical factory with excited expectations, but now it seems that everyone has been designed by someone.

And this so-called note address is basically the purpose of inducing everyone to come here.

Gu Chen stood up suddenly, turned his head and asked Xu Zhenggang, "I said Xu Zhenggang, is there something else you are hiding from me? Did you really find this note from the locker?"

"This... this must be true." Seeing Gu Chen doubting himself, Xu Zhenggang said anxiously for a moment: "Gu Chen, we have been good brothers for many years, don't you believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, I just want to get more information, because this is related to a human life." Gu Chen glanced at the corpse on the ground, and said again:

"I don't care if he is 24 or not. Now I only care about who killed him, and the deceased has been dead for at least 2 days, but why? Why did that mysterious person tell us this address again? What is his purpose? what?"

"The person who stuffed the note is the murderer." Officer Wang also said with certainty after sorting out the logic.

Lu Weiwei also nodded, and said in agreement: "I agree with Lao Wang, the murderer is indeed the one who stuffed the note, otherwise how would he know that there is a dead body in Room 4, Unit 1, Building 202, Family Building of the chemical plant? Obviously this That's what he did."

"But why did he do this?" Yuan Shasha, who had been watching for a long time, couldn't help but said, "Since he killed the man in the house, why did he tell Xu Zhenggang in this way?"

"Maybe he wanted to call the police through Xu Zhenggang." Gu Chen said.

"Call the police through me?" Xu Zhenggang became more confused the more he listened, feeling that the world was changing too fast, and he hadn't figured it out at all.

Gu Chen glanced at Xu Zhenggang, and said calmly: "You said that the person who gave you the note, you have seen it through the surveillance video, do you have any impression of this person?"

Xu Zhenggang shook his head: "This guy can't see his face clearly. After all, he is using a 24 gold card, so I naturally think he is 24."

Thinking of this, Xu Zhenggang also froze for a moment, then looked at Gu Chen in astonishment, and said, "So... so, the person who slipped the note to me may... maybe not 24, but the murderer who killed 24 ? And the deceased in this room, he is 24?"

The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone fell into deep thought.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Gu Chen said lightly: "At present, there is no evidence to prove that the deceased in front of us is 24, maybe the deceased is not 24, but the person who gave Gangzi a note , is the real 24, after 24 kills people, it is also possible to choose to call the police through Xu Zhenggang."

"That's right." Yuan Shasha was also on Gu Chen's side, expressing her opinion based on Gu Chen's train of thought: "Since that mysterious person wants to slip a note to Xu Zhenggang, it means that the address he told may not necessarily be the same Where he lives is just where he wants us to come."

"Then what should we do now?" Huang Zunlong asked beside him.

Gu Chen frowned, looked around for a week and said, "What needs to be confirmed now is the identity of the deceased."

"The second thing to determine is whether this is the scene of the first crime."

"You can ask those uncles on the playground." Ding Liang said.

Gu Chen also looked at him, and said with a smile: "So, Ding Liang, please run down and call those old people over."

"No problem, leave it to me." After Ding Liang finished speaking, he immediately ran outside to find someone.

Not long after, the old men who were chatting with each other in the small playground in the family area were instantly called by Ding Liang to Room 4, Unit 1, Building 202.

Looking at the crowded crowd in the room, several uncles were also in shock.

Fortunately, everyone revealed their identities and told the uncles that they are policemen, which made the uncles calm down a little.

Gu Chen called one of the tall and thin old men to the door, pointed to the corpse in the room and asked, "Master, do you know this man?"

"I know...I know." The tall and thin uncle squinted his eyes, and after observing for a while, he said tremblingly:

"Isn't this person Liu Mazi? He's the only one living in Unit 1 of this building."

"Liu Mazi?" Xu Zhenggang was taken aback.

The tall and thin old man nodded immediately, and said again: "That's right, we old neighbors all call him that, because he has suffered from an illness, so there are many spots on his face, so we call him Pockmarked Liu."

"Then what's his real name?" Gu Chen asked again.

The tall and thin man seemed to be stopped by the question, he scratched the back of his head and looked behind him, and then asked, "Oh! Does any of you know what Liu Mazi's real name is?"

Several old men also shook their heads after looking at each other.

"I do not know."

"Isn't Mazi Liu just Mazi Liu? Who remembers his name?"

"That's right, we are all used to calling it by mouth. After so many years, don't we all call it that way?"

The tall and thin man turned around to look at Gu Chen, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Comrade Police, everyone doesn't remember."

"This...let's put it aside for now." Gu Chen also knew that it would be very difficult to change a group of people who have called others nicknames for many years, and no one would know their real names.

So Gu Chen asked again: "Leave the matter of the name aside, I just want to ask, is this Liu Mazi's family alone? Where is his family?"

"Family?" Upon hearing this, the tall and thin uncle quickly waved his hands and said, "He has no family, so he has been alone for a long time."

"Oh?" Gu Chen couldn't help frowning, and asked again: "Why?"

"Why? Divorce." Another fat man on the side interjected, "This pockmarked Liu had an ambiguous relationship with many female colleagues in the unit in the early years, so he divorced him because of his ex-wife."

"And his ex-wife loves his daughter very much, and is afraid that letting her follow Liu Mazi will affect her future growth and have a bad influence on her daughter."

"So when I divorced, I wanted to fight for the custody of my daughter."

"So, the court awarded his daughter to his ex-wife?" Lu Weiwei asked.

The tall and thin uncle shook his head: "How can it be so simple? Even if the daughter is willing to follow her mother, will Liu Mazi agree? In the end, it went to the court, and the court finally awarded the daughter to Liu Mazi."

"What about his daughter?" Officer Wang asked.

"Daughter?" The tall and thin uncle snorted coldly, shook his head and said, "This pockmarked Liu is really not a thing. Since the divorce, he has also been punished by the unit."

"So he vented all his grievances on his daughter. His daughter was overwhelmed. She didn't finish junior high school, so she followed some young people in society. She didn't know where she went."

When Gu Chen heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "So, at present, only Liu Mazi lives in Unit 4, Room 1 of Building 202 for a long time, can I understand that?"

"That's right, this... Liu Mazi lives alone in this house." The fat man said with certainty.

Out of professional habits, Gu Chen immediately took out the sticky note that he carried with him and recorded the information in the record.

As soon as Lu Weiwei saw it, she immediately turned on her mobile phone and took a picture of the live interview program.

At this moment, after recording the information just now, Gu Chen looked up at the tall and thin man, and asked again: "Then I want to know, this...Liu Mazi, what exactly is his job position in your unit?"

"Liu Mazi? He teaches at the school for children of the unit." The tall and thin uncle pointed to a building outside the window, and said, "See, outside the family area, there used to be a school for children."

"The children of employees in our unit can go to elementary school and junior high school in this school, and he works as a teacher in the school."

"Being a good teacher, but virtue is not worthy." Lu Weiwei couldn't help but shook her head, and said regretfully, "It seems that this pockmarked Liu is really a rat shit in the teaching team, isn't he, Junior Brother Gu?"

After Lu Weiwei finished speaking, she found that Gu Chen didn't answer at all, but returned to the corpse, as if re-examining something.
