"Are you going to visit Zhang Xiaomei's bungalow?" Zhang Wenqing was stunned for a moment, but his expression quickly returned to calm: "That...... Well, she handed over the key to the village committee and asked the people from the village committee to help her look at the house, and I happened to have one here. ”

"Zhang Xiaomei used the dirty money earned from child abduction and trafficking to build a bungalow, and finally let your village committee take care of it?" Lu Weiwei hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Isn't this house a big advantage for your village committee, and you should usually go to live in it, right?"

"Hehe, look at what you said. Zhang Wenqing's face was quite embarrassed, he walked back to the village committee, opened an iron cabinet door with a small key, and took out a bunch of keys from inside, and then said, "You come with me." ”

Subsequently, the three followed Zhang Wenqing of the village committee and came to Zhang Xiaomei's new home together.

At present, the construction of new rural areas is advocated everywhere, and all new rural housing construction is the same plan and unified style.

The buildings of other villagers are decorated with blue tiles and white walls, and the edges of the roofs are hooked, but Zhang Xiaomei's small bungalow is unique in the village, with a clear Western-style church architectural style.

Also discovering the strange eyes of Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang, Zhang Wenqing opened the door and explained with a smile: "A few years ago, Zhang Xiaomei donated a lot of money to build an ancestral hall in the village, so the village committee gave her a special approval for the house, and the structure can be done in the way she likes." ”

"I can't see that this Zhang Xiaomei is quite tasteful. Following Zhang Wenqing into the small western-style building, Gu Chen looked left and right, and couldn't help but be amazed: "This decoration is too extravagant, it is really ill-gotten wealth that has committed many crimes, but it is vividly reflected in her small western-style building." ”

"Hehe, comrade police, don't tease her, if what you say is true, then our Zhangjia Village Committee will definitely not forgive her, and we will definitely assist the police and bring her back to investigate. ”

Zhang Wenqing is still clear-headed and knows why the police came this time.

Therefore, when cooperating with the police investigation, the whole person also appeared extremely positive.

Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang turned around the room on the floor and found that there were many mahjong tables in the house, and almost every room was inhabited, and the quilts on the beds were messy.

Zhang Wenqing also blushed and said: "Anyway, this Zhang Xiaomei gave us the key, and she usually doesn't come back to live, so our village committee, and some people who come to the village to do business, we will arrange to live in Zhang Xiaomei's small bungalow." ”

"What about these mahjong tables?" asked Gu Chen, pointing to the mahjong tables on one of the floors.

"Hehe, usually boring, people in the village will occasionally come a few waves of people, playing mahjong or something here, but we play very small. ”

Zhang Wenqing explained that Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang couldn't find too many problems.

So after walking out of the bungalow, Officer Wang said: "I'll leave you a phone number, if Zhang Xiaomei returns to the village, please be sure to control her." ”

"I know, and then I'll contact you. Zhang Wenqing said.

"That's right. Officer Wang took Zhang Wenqing's phone, entered his number, and said, "Thank you for your cooperation." ”

"Yes, yes, cooperating with the police in handling the case, that is the obligation of every citizen. ”

"Then let's go back first, and call if we have something. ”

"Good. ”

After several people teased each other, Gu Chen started the vehicle and drove towards the road outside the village.

And Zhang Wenqing was sent to the intersection.

On the road, Gu Chen, who was driving, was silent, but Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang were discussing this related issue.

Seeing that Gu Chen was too quiet, Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked him: "Senior Brother Gu, after you came out of the Zhangjia Village Committee, you seem to have been silent, what's wrong?"

"Don't you think it's strange?" Gu Chen turned his head to look at Lu Weiwei in the passenger seat, and said: "Zhang Xiaomei's small western-style building can be inconsistent with the buildings of other villagers, you know, her building is in the center, just because of the donation of that little money?"

"Are you worried too much Gu Chen?" Officer Wang yawned, lay down on the back seat and said: "Like my hometown, there are also people who do not build buildings according to regulations, but there are only a few of them, and there is nothing strange about it." ”

"Yes, what Lao Wang said is the truth. Lu Weiwei also said.

Gu Chen nodded: "That's right, it may be that the village committee gave her the green light, but what kind of business is Zhang Xiaomei doing outside, do you think this Zhang Wenqing, or the village committee, can you not know?"

"Probably won't ask?" Officer Wang said.

Lu Weiwei also said: "In this way, it seems that what Senior Brother Gu said is also reasonable, you think, Zhang Xiaomei is in her sixties, every time she returns from other places, the people in the village know that she has made a lot of money, but if you ask her if she doesn't say, are these people stupid? ”

"For example, this small bungalow, although it is said to be Zhang Xiaomei's new home, have you ever found anything from Zhang Xiaomei in the room?"

Officer Wang squinted and thought about it, and only said after a few seconds: "Indeed, when I searched just now, I didn't find anything from Zhang Xiaomei, and all the beds and rooms seem to be occupied by other people, or maybe they are from their village committee, so it's convenient to play mahjong at night, right?"

Gu Chen hesitated: "A Zhang Wenqing who just asks Zhang Xiaomei what business she has done for many years, and a Zhang Wenqing who can live in the villagers' homes as his own, although he actively cooperates with our work, how can I feel like acting?"

"Acting...... Acting?" Lu Weiwei was also stunned, and asked weakly: "Gu Chen, you said that this Zhang Wenqing is acting?"

"No, I think he's sincere. Officer Wang didn't believe it either.

Although Zhang Wenqing seemed quite surprised by the arrival of the police, he did a good job in coordinating the handling of the case.

not only explained Zhang Xiaomei, nicknamed Aunt Mei, her details clearly, but also expressed her willingness to cooperate with the police to arrest Zhang Xiaomei.

Zhang Wenqing not only provided some locations where Zhang Xiaomei might haunt Jiangnan City, but also explained the situation in Zhang Xiaomei's home one by one.

In fact, in this way, Gu Chen already had a preliminary understanding of Zhang Xiaomei, whom he had never met.

Zhang Xiaomei was also controversial in the village because her husband died early and she could not have children.

However, I later heard that Zhang Xiaomei had a close relationship with many old men in the village, so she had a very stiff relationship with many women.

Seven years ago, she was still working outside the home, but in the next few years, she suddenly made a fortune, which seems like an inspirational history of old age.

But from this information, Gu Chen probably had a general analysis of Aunt Mei Zhang Xiaomei.

This is a person with an arrogant personality and a more extreme personality, and he does not have a good relationship with the villagers.

But what is surprising is that such a marginal figure in the village has returned with honor in a few years and has a close relationship with the leaders of the village committee.

His own small western-style building has actually become a welfare for the village committee.

Therefore, Zhang Wenqing gave himself the feeling just now as casually as entering and leaving his own home.

Returning to the third criminal investigation group, according to Officer Wang's arrangement, Zhang Xiaomei's portrait was immediately sent to all sub-bureaus, police stations and public security posts in the city.

All members of the police force were asked to pay close attention to the movements of Aunt Mei in Gangnam City.

At the same time, on the Internet in Jiangnan City, in the circle of friends, two portraits of looking for Aunt Mei quietly appeared in everyone's circle of friends.

Many people are relaying the relay.

At first, Officer Wang thought it was sent by an internal member of the police force, but later found out that Boss Bobo was too eager, so he sent Gu Chen's sketch manuscript and the computer-synthesized color portrait of Aunt Mei in the form of relay forwarding it to the circle of friends.

At first, it was just a small area of Bobo's boss industry group that began to forward the relay.

But later I found out that some people on the Internet sent the manuscripts of their drawings and the color images that were also synthesized by computers to the circle of friends.

For a while, pictures of real and fake Aunt Mei began to flood on the Internet.

......

......

The next day, 9 a.m.

Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang came to the door of the director's office.

Gu Chen knocked on the door "tuk tuk".

"Please come in. Zhao Guozhi's response came from inside the house.

"Ju Zhao, are you looking for us?" said Gu Chen when he came in.

Zhao Guozhi took off his glasses and said angrily: "What's the matter with the three of you? How did you let so many manuscript photos appear in the Weibo circle of friends in Jiangnan City? Some media didn't know about it, and even forwarded it." ”

"Bureau Zhao. Lu Weiwei was a little aggrieved, and said: "How do we know what's going on?" At first, it was the Bobo boss, who was too anxious, so he sent Gu Chen's manuscript and computer-synthesized color pictures to the circle of friends. ”

But later, who knew who was playing a prank, he actually put the manuscript characters he drew and the color computer-synthesized images together and forwarded them to the circle of friends. ”

"There are a lot of various manuscript photos on the Internet in the circle of friends, and the masses can't tell which one is true and which one is fake. ”

"Yes, Zhao Ju, it's entirely possible that someone is playing a prank. Officer Wang also answered.

Zhao Guozhi waved his hand, took a sip of the teacup, and then said: "I don't care who is true or who is fake, you should immediately explain it to the public now, after all, this is all made by you, and you should find a way to solve it." ”

After taking a few sips of tea, Zhao Guozhi said again: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, now even in the circle of friends of the director of the municipal bureau, there are several different sets of manuscript drawings. ”

"But the text is all about looking for Aunt Mei, and the city called me to ask what was going on? I didn't even understand what was going on, so you had to settle this matter for me. ”

Gu Chen also looked at Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang, and then said, "Why don't we make an official announcement?"

"I think it's okay. Lu Weiwei was the first to agree.

Officer Wang also said: "It's time to clarify, otherwise the misunderstanding will be a big one, if these guys are spoofed and use the avatars of the masses as Aunt Mei, then they will be complained." ”

"It's good to know. Zhao Guozhi also glared at Officer Wang, and said, "Now, immediately, immediately, draw up a statement for me, if you want to find this Aunt Mei, then mobilize all the police forces, as well as the masses." ”

"As long as this Aunt Mei is still in Jiangnan City for a day, we must bring her to justice, but we can't make the people feel cold, you three groups have to bear this responsibility. ”

"Yes, guaranteed to get the job done. Gu Chen took the lead in speaking, and then Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also echoed.

After returning to the third group, Lu Weiwei immediately edited the text on the document and prepared an official notice.

Later, the document was sent to the city media such as Jiangnan TV Station and Jiangnan Daily.

For a while, the accurate news about the search for Aunt Mei began to spread in accordance with the normal order.

......

......

Five days later.

When Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were sorting out the relevant documents, Officer Wang hurriedly walked into the office, came to the two of them and said, "Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, you two hurry up and put down your work now and go out with me." ”

"What's the situation, Senior Brother Wang?" Gu Chen looked at him unconsciously.

"It's about Aunt May, she showed up, in a vegetable patch on the outskirts of the city. Officer Wang was in a hurry not to want it, and his mouth was like a running train.

"Could it be that the citizens saw the notice and arrested Aunt Mei in the vegetable field on the outskirts of the city?" When Lu Weiwei thought of this, the whole person was also quite excited: "If that's the case, it's great, Boss Bobo must be happy." ”

"It's not that simple. Officer Wang said with a gloomy face: "When this Aunt Mei was discovered, she was already out of breath. ”

"Dead?" Gu Chen suddenly burst out in shock, and he hurriedly asked Officer Wang, "What's the matter, Senior Brother Wang?"

"I don't know. After Officer Wang walked back and forth, he explained: "According to the report of the masses, they found a female corpse in a vegetable garden on the outskirts of the city, and at a glance, they found that it was quite similar to the appearance of Aunt Mei reported by the police, so they immediately called the police." ”

"It's not clear what the situation is, I've asked the nearby patrol to go to the scene to maintain order, and we have to hurry over. ”

"Then hurry up. Gu Chen also quickly placed the documents on the side, took down the equipment from the wall and sent it to everyone.

Afterwards, the three of them drove to the outskirts of the city.

About forty minutes have passed.

Officer Wang was at a fork in the road at a billboard when he suddenly turned right and drove into a small road.

After driving for another three kilometers, I found that a large number of people were gathering in the nearby vegetable field.

The patrol police and some auxiliary police, who were the first to arrive, had already pulled a cordon at the scene.

All nearby residents were stopped by the police outside the cordon.

Seeing a police car driving in, some people took the initiative to give way to a passage.

Seeing that it was Gu Chen from the three groups who got out of the car, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong rushed forward.

"Gu Chen, it turned out to be you?" Ding Liang said.

"You guys are here too?" Gu Chen looked at the two of them.

"We were patrolling the neighborhood just now and received a call from Officer Wang, so we rushed here immediately. Huang Zunlong pointed behind him and said, "The scene has been controlled by us." ”

"Very well, now take us to see it. Gu Chen was a little impatient.

After all, Aunt Mei, who had been looking for many days, suddenly appeared, but in this way, it was inevitable that Gu Chen would be puzzled.

Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also followed, and everyone walked towards the river near the vegetable field.

When two auxiliary police officers saw the arrival of police officers from the Criminal Investigation Unit 3 of the sub-bureau, they took the initiative to give way to a passage.

Huang Zunlong pointed to a female corpse by the river and said: "The first was a crowd who came here to water vegetables, and he came to the river to fetch water, but suddenly found that there was suddenly a small dirt slope next to the path he often walked. ”

Because he was very familiar with the nearby terrain, he felt that there was something strange about this small dirt slope, so he used tools to cut the soil. ”

It just so happened that the soil here was relatively soft, so when he found out that it was a corpse, he was also frightened, so he quickly called the nearby residents to help. ”

Later, someone discovered that this female corpse was actually somewhat similar to Aunt Mei reported by the police before, so they called the police. ”

Gu Chen walked in front of the female corpse, squatted down, put on white gloves and examined it carefully, and sure enough, he found that the female corpse was indeed a woman about sixty-five years old, and her appearance was exactly the same as Zhang Xiaomei in her manuscript.

"How's it going?" Lu Weiwei behind him covered her nose and asked him.

"That's right, she is the 'Aunt Mei' we are looking for, Zhang Xiaomei. Gu Chen stood up, and then asked Huang Zunlong: "By the way, is the crowd who first found this female corpse still at the scene?"

"Yes, I'll bring him here. Huang Zunlong also hurriedly turned around.

It didn't take long for him to bring a white-haired old man from the crowd to Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, the person brought it to you is him." ”

When the white-haired old man saw Gu Chen, he also nodded politely and said, "Comrade police." ”

"What do you call it?" Gu Chen asked him.

"It's okay for you to call me Lao Bai. The white-haired old man said.

"Okay, Mr. Bai, I'll ask you a few questions now, and please answer them truthfully, okay?" Gu Chen took out his notebook and looked like an inquiry.

Lao Bai also nodded: "You ask, I will tell you what I know." ”

"Good. Gu Chen nodded and continued to ask him, "When did you find this female corpse, what time was it?"

"About ......" Lao Bai looked up and recalled for a few seconds, and then said, "About two hours ago, when I came here to water the vegetables." ”

"Were you alone at the scene?" Gu Chen asked again.

Lao Bai shook his head and said, "There is another owner of the vegetable field, his name is Lao Fang, and he was about a hundred meters away from me at that time." ”

"That is to say, when you found out that there was a corpse, you asked Lao Fang to come with help, right?" Officer Wang took Lao Bai's words and continued to ask him.

"That's right. Lao Bai also nodded, and responded very cheerfully: "I was scared at the time, so I called Lao Fang over, and I brushed away the dirt together and found that the appearance of this female corpse was somewhat similar to the 'Aunt Mei' we saw in the circle of friends before." ”

"We thought, this is a big deal, we can't afford to be sloppy, so we went to the neighborhood again, called more people to help, and together we picked up the dirt of this corpse, during which someone called the police, and then after ten minutes, your police came. ”

"Who can prove what you said?" Gu Chen asked.

The old man pointed to a group of people behind him: "They, they were all called by me at that time." ”

"That's right, we can all prove that Lao Bai was the first to find out, and then called Lao Fang to come over to help. A man in the crowd chimed in.

Gu Chen nodded, and then asked, "Then have you noticed any strangers haunting here recently?"

"Stranger?" Lao Bai scratched the back of his head, and the whole person fell into deep thought, but after a few seconds, his eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, the stranger you said is really there." ”
