Picking up the phone, seeing that the caller ID was Han Feng's number, Gu Chen suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Although this guy is paired with three groups, he rarely calls himself.

In addition, it is now the night shift, and Gu Chen's three teams are not on the night shift today.

This made Gu Chen, who often dealt with emergencies, realize that Han Feng must have come to ask for help when he was looking for him.

Scratched the answer button, and before Gu Chen could speak, Han Feng's urgency came from his ears: "Gu ...... Gu Chen, come on, there's an accident here in the film and television city. ”

"Senior Brother Han, don't worry, speak slowly. Seeing that Han Feng was already slurring his speech, Gu Chen tried to make him stabilize his emotions.

"Out of ...... Someone died, when the staff of the film and television city were patrolling, they found a body when they passed through the back mountain to shoot the scene, and we have now arrived at the scene in the night team and need support. ”

"Understood, you send me the address, and I'll come over right away. The voice fell, and Gu Chen hung up the phone.

When encountering this situation, ordinary people would be nervous in the future, but Gu Chen's psychology was as calm as water.

The shadow hidden in the film and television city means a huge risk.

Previously, Gu Chen was still guessing that if the shadow focused on his work in the crew, it might be difficult to find a flaw.

But now, there is a murder case in the mountain behind the film and television city, and Gu Chen is invisibly linked to the shadow.

"What's the situation?" Seeing Gu Chen's indifferent face, Lu Weiwei felt unsteady.

"Everyone packed up their things, went to the film and television city, and put on all the toolboxes by the way, and found a corpse in the mountain behind the film and television city......"

After Gu Chen briefly briefed him on the situation, everyone suddenly became nervous.

"It's the shadow, the shadow appears. Officer Wang couldn't help but be stunned.

Lu Weiwei also hurriedly said: "It must be, this shadow has been lurking for so long, what is he trying to do? How can there be a corpse?"

"Don't worry about it for now, just go. Yuan Shasha didn't ask much, and had already prepared various equipment for everyone.

Everyone drove all the way forward, and soon came to the outside of the film and television city, Gu Chen followed the address location sent by Han Feng, and directly drove along the left side of the film and television city, and finally found a police car parked nearby at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing someone driving over, Han Feng directly trotted over with a probationary police officer.

"Gu Chen, you're finally here. Han Feng looked behind him nervously, and then said, "When the nearby security guards were patrolling outside, they found a dead body in the woods at the foot of the mountain. ”

"It's just a corpse, it makes you nervous like this?" Officer Wang looked at Han Feng's cowardice, and couldn't help but tease.

Han Feng waved his hand and said, "Anyway...... Anyway, I can't say it right now, so you'll find out for yourself. ”

Without further ado, Han Feng turned around and left directly, leading everyone to the scene.

Gu Chen took a general look, at the foot of the mountain, several military tents were set up, and there were ancient battle flags around, which should be the outdoor part of this drama.

But in a ravine not far from the construction site, two security guards were standing on one side and whispering.

Seeing the police brigade coming, the two of them calmed down from their nervousness.

"What's the situation?" asked Gu Chen as he walked over.

An elderly security guard pointed directly to a location not far away and said, "Comrade policeman, you ...... See for yourself. ”

"Da!" Gu Chen directly turned on the bright flashlight in his hand and shone it at the dark area.

At this moment, a bloody corpse was lying in the ravine.

Gu Chen didn't think too much about it, and directly led everyone around.

"Xiao Yuan. Gu Chen turned his head and glanced at Yuan Shasha.

"Understood. Yuan Shasha put down the toolbox and immediately took out a roll of cordon.

At the same time, Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also put down their toolboxes one after another.

Gu Chen turned on the law enforcement recorder, squatted in front of the corpse with white gloves, and irradiated it with a strong flashlight.

"The corpse's face was badly mutilated. Gu Chen frowned slightly, and turned to look at the two security guards behind him.

The older security guard waved his hand: "We don't know who he is. ”

"This corpse was the first one you found?" Gu Chen asked.

The older security guard nodded: "Yes, at the beginning, we were just patrolling here every day, and the crew of "Concubine Laughing" will be filming an outstage scene in the back mountain tomorrow, and these tent camps have already been set up." ”

"So, the people from the management office asked us to come over at night to make rounds, although there were no props, only a few empty tents, but we were afraid that some people would destroy them, so we came over and walked around. ”

"That's right. The young security guard also answered: "But when we inspected this side, we had already checked it, and there was no big problem, and when we were about to return along the film and television city from the other side, we found that there seemed to be people in the ravine." ”

"When we went over to take a closer look, we found that the man was lying in a ditch, and there was blood everywhere, so we quickly notified the police station. ”

"So, you don't know who he is?" Gu Chen was a little troubled, first of all, the body could not be confirmed, which would definitely bring a lot of trouble to the investigation of the case.

Han Feng on the side comforted: "But ...... Maybe it's the crew, and the only ones who can go to the back mountain are the crew. ”

"Right...... Right. The probationary police officer beside Han Feng didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only nod dumbfoundedly.

"I see. Gu Chen nodded slightly, and then continued to systematically inspect the corpse.

At this time, Lu Weiwei was holding her mobile phone to shoot the scene.

Officer Wang took his own strong flashlight and stood on the other side to fill the light for Gu Chen.

"His head was almost cut off. Gu Chen frowned, and said angrily: "Now the neck is still bleeding, and the crime should not be long." ”

"That'...... So what should I do?" the elderly security guard on the side was a little flustered, he had never seen such a scene.

Gu Chen directly took out the hemostatic bandage from his individual police equipment, and temporarily treated the bleeding part of the deceased's neck.

After the bleeding decreased, Gu Chen found it when he examined other parts of the corpse.

He had severe cut injuries to the top of his shoulder and part of his neck.

Next to the body was a 7.5-inch circular saw with some blood stains on it.

And there was also a drill with a 1-inch auger bit lying nearby, as well as some other tools.

This is the outfield of the crew of "Concubine Laughter", and it is also a temporary venue, and many steel pipes and scaffolding are still thrown aside.

But Gu Chen could see from the man's dress that he should basically not be the on-site staff, at least Gu Chen didn't find calluses on his hands.

Then Gu Chen searched the pocket of the deceased's multi-functional vest a few times and found several folded line scripts.

When you open it, you will see a detailed explanation of the analysis.

"Is this the general script?" Gu Chen raised his head slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Ordinary actors only hold their own scripts, but his script is the general script, isn't it ......?"

Thinking of this, Gu Chen continued to search on the deceased's body, and soon found another work card.

At this moment, with the illumination of the lights, everyone was shocked to find that the man's portrait on the work card was the photo of Deputy Director Meng of the crew of "Concubine Laughing".

He ...... Is he Meng Dao?" Lu Weiwei, who looked at the photo, exclaimed.

"I'll see. Officer Wang also took the work card in disbelief, and then found Meng Liang's name below, and the position was displayed as assistant director.

Officer Wang was stunned at this moment, and said incredulously: "Isn't this Director Meng? Who is so ruthless?"

Seeing that Gu Chen's side had already identified the identity of the deceased, two security guards, as well as Han Feng and another probationary policeman, they swarmed over.

"Not to mention, in terms of body type, it really looks very similar to Director Meng. ”

"What do you mean by being very similar? This is clearly Director Meng, he usually wears this clothes. ”

"Oh my God, how could he die here......?" Looking at the corpse covered in blood, the young security guard couldn't help covering his mouth and nose, and was also shocked: "It's too miserable to be cut like this, right?"

Everyone began to speculate, but Gu Chen was not disturbed.

Gu Chen knew very well that judging from the current situation, he had to find a starting point for his investigation.

Therefore, Gu Chen stood up, walked to the nearby tools and began to observe.

"These tools must have been used on this corpse. Gu Chen squatted down, irradiated it with a strong flashlight, and said:

"I have just examined the corpse and found that there were two holes drilled with an auger in the neck and back of the corpse, and there were marks of circular sawing in the neck and back. ”

"But what happened to Director Meng's shirt, was it caused during the fight, why did it roll up like this?" Han Feng also pointed to Director Meng's corpse and couldn't help but ask Gu Chen curiously.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "I also saw it just now, and I can basically conclude that the chainsaw should have been entangled in the shirt and multi-functional vest of the deceased Meng Dao at that time." ”

Looking up at Han Feng, Gu Chen said again: "I saw some marks in the middle of the deceased's back, can Senior Brother Han help me turn Director Meng's body over?" I need to ask Senior Sister Lu to help take pictures of the corpse from all angles." ”

"Huh?" Seeing that Gu Chen was going to help the corpse turn over by himself, Han Feng was suddenly shocked.

But looking at Lu Weiwei who was filming, Han Feng couldn't refuse for a while, so he could only put on gloves and reluctantly excuse himself: "Okay...... Okay, turn him over in the future. ”

"Senior Sister Lu. Gu Chen turned his head to look at Lu Weiwei.

"Understood. Lu Weiwei made an "OK" gesture and began to photograph the sides and backs of the corpses at the scene.

And Han Feng reluctantly cooperated......

After completing some operations, Gu Chen turned to the security guard and said, "Contact the people on the crew, I want to know who Director Meng is in contact with in the end." ”

"I didn't ...... No problem, we'll just call the management and ask them to ask. The older security guard was also panicked, so he quickly dialed the phone to get in touch.

And Gu Chen, let's quietly inspect the tools and corpses of the crime at the scene.

About twenty minutes passed.

Several commercial vehicles arrived one after another.

A fat man in a white T-shirt walks in the forefront.

Gu Chen recognized him, he was Yan Wenqiang, the chief director of "Concubine Smile".

Behind him were all crew members.

As soon as everyone arrived at the scene, they began to chatter and talk about everything.

And Yan Wenqiang also felt Gu Chen's side with a confused expression, so he asked curiously: "Is this ...... Who's in charge here?"

"Me. Gu Chen stood up, walked up to Yan Wenqiang and said, "I am the person in charge here, Gu Chen." ”

"Oh, hello Officer Gu. Yan Wenqiang stretched out his hand to shake hands with Gu Chen, but saw that Gu Chen's white gloves had already been stained red with blood, so he hesitated, withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and asked weakly:

"Excuse me, is the body that died at the scene really Director Meng of our crew?"

"That's right, why don't you make a phone call and try it?" Gu Chen didn't find Director Meng's phone at the scene.

Director Yan Wenqiang did not hesitate, and directly took out his mobile phone to make a call.

The results that could be obtained were the same as Gu Chen imagined, no one answered, and the mobile phone was fixed at the murderer's place, and it was turned off.

Hanging up the phone, Yan Wenqiang spread his hands and said, "No one answered." ”

"It doesn't matter. Gu Chen didn't expect the phone to get through, and asked directly: "Let me ask you, when was the last time you saw Director Meng?"

"The last time I saw Director Meng? Yan Wenqiang's face was red, and he had a smell of wine on his body.

Gu Chen didn't have to guess to know that he must be drinking with someone after work.

Among the staff members who followed, many were red-faced.

"I think it was before dinner, because today's shooting mission went well, so we called it a day early. ”

"And for the outdoor scenes, because the venue has not yet been built, there is no night scene today. ”

"That is to say, the last time you saw Director Meng was when you finished work, right?" Gu Chen asked.

"That's right, it's time to finish work, and then I invited our Meng Dao to go to the city for dinner together, but he politely declined, he said that the work at hand has not yet been finished, and the construction of the outdoor scene, I also want to see it again, so we separated at that time. ”

When Yan Wenqiang said this, he also involuntarily wiped the beads of sweat from the corners of his forehead, and felt that when he saw the miserable corpse in front of him, the whole person's psychology was also chuckled.

Gu Chen turned his head to look at the others and asked, "Among you, has any of you seen Director Meng after?"

After a moment of silence at the scene, everyone looked at each other, and then a tall and thin man raised his hand and said, "Police...... Comrade policeman, I met Director Meng at this scene. ”

"Have you seen him?" Gu Chen hurriedly took a few steps forward and came to the tall and thin man.

"Yes, I've met him here. The tall and thin man also nodded fiercely, and said with great confidence: "At that time, I was in charge of the construction of the outdoor scene, and Director Meng came to inspect and wanted to see the progress. ”

"I remember I was with him and looked around the camp site, and he said that there were no major problems except for a few areas that needed to be improved. ”

"Then was there anyone at the scene at that time?" Gu Chen asked.

"There should be, there are several construction workers, and many of the outdoor scenes of our crew are specially built by these workers. The tall and thin man said.

After Gu Chen looked around the scene for a week, he continued to ask, "Time." ”

"It was around 6:30 p.m., I think it was around that time, and there were three or four workers on site doing the finishing touches. ”

Moreover, Director Meng also specially called a worker who was very familiar with him to learn more about the sturdy state of these wooden stake frames. ”

"Because tomorrow we are going to shoot the scene of hanging Weiya, the hero and heroine have to jump off the very high wooden frame, so for the sake of safety, Director Meng specially asked him to strengthen and improve. ”

Lu Weiwei on the side hesitated for a moment and asked, "Has only one worker communicated with him?"

"Yes, I only saw one worker talking to him, and the two seemed to know each other a little. The tall and thin man said.

Hearing this, the atmosphere suddenly became weird.

Officer Wang looked at Gu Chen, and just wanted to speak, but Gu Chen said directly: "It seems that this worker has to be called to investigate, who has his phone?"

"We have people in charge of logistics. Instructor Yan Wenqiang stepped forward and quickly took out his mobile phone to press his hand: "You wait a minute, I'll call the logistics right away and ask them to call the workers who are building the finishing work here." ”

"Good. Gu Chen saw that director Yan Wenqiang was proactive, and he didn't need to say anything.

At this moment, the strange atmosphere of the scene made many staff members discuss.

built all kinds of speculations, and seemed to feel that Director Meng's death must be strange.

But everyone stood aside and discussed for a long time, but no one had a suitable clue to provide to the police.

Gu Chen could only barely get some clues from the last few people Meng Dao had contacted.

About another twenty minutes passed, and a business van slowly approached from a distance.

Everyone made way for a passage.

The business vehicle stopped steadily in front of everyone, and a strong bald man, with several men in work uniforms, stepped down from the business car.

"Director, I brought it to you. The bald man wearing a black vest and revealing a body of tendon flesh walked to Yan Wenqiang's side.

Then he glanced at the corpse not far away, and then frowned and asked, "This ...... Is this really Director Meng?"

"Hmm. Yan Wenqiang nodded helplessly, and said angrily: "Who knew that this kind of thing would happen, now that the police are dealing with it, we just need to cooperate well." ”

"That'...... That's what I know. The bald man also nodded knowingly, and then walked up to Gu Chen and said, "Comrade policeman, I have already brought people, and a few of them are the workers who set up camp in the back mountain tonight, and they are all here." ”

"Let them come. Gu Chen glanced behind the man in front of him and urged.

The bald man beckoned, and the five workers in uniforms walked side by side in front of Gu Chen.

"Stand still, don't move. Seeing a few people walking casually, the bald man roared again.

"It doesn't matter. Gu Chen waved his hand, indicating that it was unnecessary.

Then he surrounded the five men and began to carefully observe everyone's situation.

Everyone looked at each other with innocent expressions.

But when they saw a bright red corpse lying on the ground, everyone couldn't help but get nervous, and they could only actively cooperate with Gu Chen's inspection.

Gu Chen looked everyone up and down in turn, and asked casually, "Who is the person who discussed the firmness of the wooden frame with Director Meng tonight?"

He ...... He. ”

When four of the workers heard this, they all pointed to a man standing on the far right.

Gu Chen walked up to him quickly and asked, "You were the only person who talked to Director Meng at that time, right?"

"Yes...... Yes. The man's eyes dodged, not daring to look at Gu Chen.

"Don't be nervous. Gu Chen asked him to try to calm down, feeling that there was something wrong with this person's eyes.

......
