Chapter 17 The Peninsula Hotel

The two drove straight to The Peninsula Hotel.

As soon as the car stopped in front of the door, a police car drove up close behind.

The rear door opened, and Tang Cheng was both surprised and a little surprised when he saw the people walking down. The person who came was Du Chen, the leader of the criminal investigation detachment who met yesterday.

When he saw Tang Cheng, the look on Du Chen's face was also slightly surprised, and he beckoned to him from afar.

"Yo, what a coincidence, we met again so soon!" Du Chen walked closer with a smile and looked up at the sky, "It's early in the morning, it's not like the time node of the hotel." Honestly, what are you two here for? ”

To say that Jiang is still old and spicy, with Du Chen's insightful ability, few cats can get through from under his nose.

"Morning, Officer Du, we're looking for someone." Tang Cheng replied truthfully.

"That's even more coincidental, we're also here to find someone." Du Chen said, glanced at Lin Yi, took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to her, "Miss Lin, please take a closer look, this lady is your roommate, right?" ”

Lin Yi took the photo and found that the person on it was the Tong Jiaojiao she and Tang Cheng were looking for. The police found out about the shared relationship between the two of them so quickly, could it be that Tong Jiaojiao had an accident?

She couldn't help but worry, "I'm indeed her roommate, and the two of us are here to find her." Officer, what's going on? ”

"Someone called the police to say that Tong Jiaojiao was missing, and we found this place according to the location of the last display of her mobile phone signal." Du Chen said.

"As far as we know, Tong Jiaojiao stayed in this hotel for a week." Tang Cheng was puzzled, "Who said she was missing?" ”

"The informant also came, right in my car." Du Chen turned his head and waved his hand over there, his tone suddenly became much more serious, "Come down, why are you still stunned there?" ”

The figure in the car cowered for a long time, and was dragged out by the police officer who couldn't stand it standing outside, "I'm not afraid to get into the police car, what are you doing at this time?" ”

"I, I, I didn't ......," the man muttered, pulling up his collar to cover half of his face.

"Zhao Xiaojun!" Du Chen suddenly screamed.

"Hey!" Zhao Xiaojun was so frightened that he immediately straightened up and raised his head. When his eyes met Tang Cheng's gaze, he dodged in a panic.

"I thought it was someone, but it turned out to be this guy." The corners of Tang Cheng's mouth raised slightly.

"You know?" Du Chen asked.

"I just saw it last night."

When Tang Cheng said this, Zhao Xiaojun's heart fluttered, and he suddenly became nervous. Everything that happened last night is still vivid, and the bruises on his face are Tang Cheng's punches. If you were told to the police that you had entered the house with a knife in the middle of the night, you would definitely be detained.

But fortunately, Tang Cheng didn't mention it, just walked over lightly and patted Zhao Xiaojun's shoulder.

"You're a dumbfounder, we did tell you to use legitimate means to get the girl back, that's right. But people ignore you, and you can't call the police just because you can't find anyone! ”

"No, it's not."

Zhao Xiaojun shook his head and looked at Du Chen, his eyes seemed to ask him for advice on whether to tell the truth.

Du Chen understood, stepped forward, and took over the topic, "Let me talk about it." Here's the thing, the reason why Zhao Xiaojun called the police was because he received a blackmail text message, and the other party claimed that if she wanted to save her girlfriend, she would prepare 200,000 cash to ransom people. He couldn't come up with that much money, so he called the police. ”

"When I was with her, she had already spent all my savings." Zhao Xiaojun said aggrievedly.

"How can there be such a thing?" Tang Cheng was stunned.

"What? Tong Jiaojiao was kidnapped? Lin Yi was also shocked after hearing this.

"It's not quite certain yet." Du Chen said, "Because we are worried that there will be false elements, we want to confirm the location of the victim mentioned in the text message before taking the next step." So, I found this place. ”

"We called her many times, but no one answered, and we were worried that something would happen to her, so we rushed over." Lin Yi said, "Officer, something should really happen to her, right?" ”

"Whether it's true or not, you have to go in and see if it's known." Du Chen's gaze pointed to the inside of the hotel.

Several people nodded and followed Du Chen into the hotel lobby.

In the name of assisting in the investigation, Du Chen asked the hotel front desk staff to check Tong Jiaojiao's check-in records. Tang Cheng didn't dare to tell him about his location, otherwise with Du Chen's keen detection ability, he would definitely dig deep into his intentions and find out the existence of the Turing machine, which would cause more unnecessary trouble.

It is a murder case, and it must go through the hands of the police in the end. But before he had a clue, Tang Cheng didn't want Du Chen to get involved in this matter too early.

So he looked into his kidnapping for ransom, and he looked into his courier leads. The purpose is different, but the end is the same.

Confirming that Tong Jiaojiao has not checked out so far, Du Chen asked the hotel staff to go with him to check. The Peninsula Hotel is one of the few three-star luxury hotels in Jiangcheng, and even the cheapest room can cost more than 10,000 yuan for a week's stay here.

An online female anchor who originally lived in a low-rent house, where did she get the money to spend so much money here? This point can't help but lead to reverie.

Tong Jiaojiao's room was No. 3008, and Du Chen, Tang Cheng and others knocked on the door several times, but no one answered. In an emergency, the hotel staff used a universal card to unlock the door and enter to check.

But when a few people rushed into the room, there was no one in the room. The bathroom, the cabinet, under the bed, all the places that can be found, Tong Jiaojiao's belongings are still messily placed everywhere, but she herself does not know where to go.

After a careful search, Du Chen took out the mobile phone that had fallen under the bed with a white-gloved hand, and pressed the power button a few times but there was no response.

Tang Cheng and Lin Yi glanced at each other, guessing that it might be due to the fact that the two of them had made too many phone calls, and there was a shutdown prompt in the last phone call this morning, probably because the power was exhausted.

If the mobile phone that fell under the bed rang for so long and no one answered, it means that Tong Jiaojiao may have left here last night. With her littering personality, it's not surprising to lose her phone.

But where will she go?

Without waiting for Tang Cheng to say anything, Du Chen, the capable criminal investigation team leader on the other side, gave an order as quickly as possible, and ordered the two young police officers beside him, "Xiao Zhang, you go to the hotel security room to check the monitoring and confirm the time when Tong Jiaojiao left." Xiao Li, try charging this phone, if the phone is not broken, there may be clues we need in it. ”

"Yes!" The two replied in unison and quickly began to execute.

In an emergency, he was able to complete his judgment and give a coping strategy so calmly and quickly, without dragging his feet, Tang Cheng couldn't help but sigh at the shrewdness and ability of Du Chen, the "old ginger".

Immediately after, another question suddenly occurred to him.

Turing 5467 didn't look for such a powerful police officer, but found him and told him not to disclose the news to the police, which seems to have another intention. Could it be that the mysterious organization behind the Turing machine wants to protect the person who has an ulterior secret?
