A week later.

10 a.m.

Seremban Branch.

Office of the Third Criminal Investigation Group.

Everybody's busy.

After Gu Chen sorted out and filed the newly handed in candid photography equipment, he threw it into the cardboard box next to him.

I don't remember how much it is, but to put it bluntly, I'm too busy.

However, compared to the previous few days, the amount of candid photography equipment handed in now is far less than that time.

In the Furong Branch, no less than 30 people were caught by the candid photographers alone.

Moreover, the two complete industrial chains have been destroyed in one fell swoop, and many hotels and guesthouses have also resumed their usual business.

For this reason, many hotels also specially sent pennants to the Furong Branch.

The rectification operation is not only in Seremban.

As an example of rectification, it was also listed as a model by Qin Gang, and it was promoted throughout the city, and the results achieved were also remarkable.

However, this kind of rectification is still not over, Gu Chen did not dare to slack off, as long as there is relevant police information, Gu Chen will personally go to deal with it.

After all, the rectification operation is the overall situation, but there are still various tasks, and there are many of them.

Of course, what Gu Chen has encountered so far is about the problem of the candid photographer being arrested on the spot.

Due to Gu Chen's popular science in place, many people have discovered some rules of clandestine photographers in the city, so clandestine photographers are often easier to find when committing crimes.

Anyone who has the main points of the police's prompts, if they encounter such people, will do their best to subdue them and wait for the police to come and harvest the rice.

From a certain point of view, the management of the chaos of candid photography has been deeply rooted in the bones of Jiangnan citizens.

With the help of the Jiangnan City Police Force to rectify the chaotic trend of candid photography, the consciousness of many Jiangnan citizens is obviously higher than that of other brother cities.

However, no matter how well Zhao Guozhi implements Gu Chen's plan, and with the support of the masses, there is no way to fundamentally put an end to the chaos of clandestine photography, but if there are signs, we must resolutely crack down.

Gu Chen's daily work can only be busy in various police calls.

Only by chance can there be a break.

The entire Jiangnan City Police Force canceled the vacation and all staff took up their posts, and the City Bureau even planned to use one month to eliminate all the chaos of candid photography in Jiangnan City and fundamentally eliminate it.

Of course, this is from the point of view of the city bureau.

In the Seremban Branch, in fact, everyone's rectification work can be said to have come to an end.

In the jurisdiction of Seremban District, it is basically difficult to have candid photography equipment.

Many police officers can basically have a small half-day off after dealing with the matter at hand.

In the entire Seremban sub-bureau, there will not be too many forced overtime.

Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong of the patrol team, when they passed by the three groups of offices with helmets, couldn't help but stop Gu Chen, who had just gone out.

"What's wrong?" Gu Chen looked at the two of them panting and hurriedly asked.

Ding Liang passed by Gu Chen, walked to Gu Chen's desk, and directly picked up a bottle of yogurt that Lu Weiwei gave to Gu Chen and drank it.

"Gu Chen, the proprietress of the West Street Elegant and Vulgar B&B, found a few candid cameras and wanted us to go over and help disassemble them. ”

Huang Zunlong looked at Ding Liang's appearance of pouring yogurt, and couldn't help but joke: "But we have just dealt with three police cases, and we are tired, your criminal investigation team is not busy now, can you send a few people over to deal with it?"

Seeing that there was no response from the people in the three groups of offices, Huang Zunlong said in a mocking tone again: "It's better for you to go, the others are not very familiar." ”

When Gu Chen heard this, he smiled and said: "You two are not physically strong, the previous record was four police incidents in one morning, and these three cases will make you tired like this?"

"Who is physically weak?" Ding Liang, who drank Gu Chen's yogurt, said twice, "We just proposed, see if you are interested, after all, you Gu Chen is the protagonist of the current rectification action." ”

"Alright, I got it. ”

Gu Chen smiled mysteriously, knowing that the two of them wanted to rest for a while, and that he was fine at the moment, so he agreed: "I'll go over with Senior Sister Lu to have a look, give me the address." ”

Ding Liang took Lu Weiwei very seriously, but when he saw Lu Weiwei packing up her things without any opinion, he was relieved in his heart.

He was not afraid that Gu Chen would have an opinion, but he was afraid that Gu Chen's partner would have an idea.

After all, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang are both difficult to mess with.

Seeing that Gu Chen readily agreed, Huang Zunlong on the side was also relieved: "The proprietress of that homestay is over seventy years old, and it is not very convenient to move, plus the scale of the homestay is not large, and there are no outsiders, so I can only ask the police for help, so I ......."

"So don't talk about it, leave it to me and Senior Brother Gu. Lu Weiwei directly interrupted: "There is no reason why serving the people is not hard, you two can take it with you when you are tired, don't make trouble for us." ”

"Senior Sister Lu is wise. Ding Liang couldn't help but call Lu Weiwei.

With police equipment and some disassembly tools, Gu Chen drove the police car and Lu Weiwei all the way to the West Street Elegant Folk Appreciation B&B.

After more than half an hour away, Gu Chen parked the car at the door of the homestay.

Compared with the commercial prosperity of West Street, the location of the elegant and vulgar B&B is equivalent to a small house in a courtyard at the edge of the block.

The B&B used to be an old house with a courtyard, but after being renovated and renovated, it became a B&B with Jiangnan style characteristics.

Most of the people who choose to live here are outsiders who book rooms online, and there are locals, but not many.

Hearing the movement of a vehicle stopping outside the door, an old lady wearing a set of Hanfu walked out slowly.

"Is it the police you called?" Gu Chen held the toolbox in his left hand and opened the law enforcement recorder with his right hand.

"Yes, I called the police, and I have worked hard for you, comrade police. ”

The shopkeeper was a dignified-looking and polite old lady, who immediately stepped forward to greet her.

Lu Weiwei smiled: "Old lady, what's the situation at your homestay? Take us in first." ”

"Okay, come with me. The old lady didn't say anything, and directly led Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei to a room on the first floor, pointed to a few places and said: "Here, here, and here, according to your police tips, I also checked the rooms at home and found that many places were installed with candid photography equipment." ”

"But I'm an old lady who can't disassemble it, so I can only call and ask your police to help. ”

"Don't worry, wife, I'll take a look first. Gu Chen closed the curtains, turned on the bright flashlight, and shone it at the target.

Sure enough, in the direction pointed by the old lady, several suspected candid cameras were indeed found.

Of course, the hiding methods of these devices are also very tricky, and even the old lady can find out, so it is conceivable that the candid photography has lost its secrecy.

Gu Chen opened the toolbox and began to disassemble the places that the old lady suspected one by one.

And Lu Weiwei was not idle, and took the initiative to help the old lady check the situation in other rooms.

After a round of inspection, Gu Chen also basically disassembled the candid camera equipment and was putting the finishing touches on it.

"How is it?" Gu Chen asked Lu Weiwei: "Have you found any other candid shooting equipment?" ”

Lu Weiwei shook her head: "Except for this house, I haven't found any other rooms, and I have carefully checked them." ”

After hearing this, the old lady was also delighted: "Thank you, comrade policeman. ”

Gu Chen patted the dust on his hands, walked over and said, "Old lady, you call up the information of the travelers who have stayed in this room before, and we will make a record in order to find the suspect who installed the candid camera equipment without permission." ”

"Of course you can, if you can catch it, it would be even better. The old lady's heart was full of joy.

Candid photography equipment is a disaster for this small homestay.

Originally, the old lady didn't pay attention to it, but since the police posted the anti-candid warning signs in conspicuous positions in the rooms of major hotels, the old lady instantly became Sherlock Holmes.

He has a very sensitive grasp of which places are likely to become the hardest hit areas for candid photography.

Looking at the occupancy records, in the past month, there have only been as many as 10 people staying in this room.

It seems that the business of the B&B is not very good......

"Have you recorded it?" Gu Chen asked.

Lu Weiwei put away the pen and stuffed it into her pocket: "Don't worry, take it back and let Lao Wang check the situation of these people, it is not difficult to find the candid photographer." ”

This time to rectify the chaos of candid photography, the Furong Branch has arrested many candid photographers according to this clue, so Lu Weiwei is also full of confidence.

"Alright, let's go. Gu Chen grinned.

According to the police, this is just a small police situation, but looking at the old lady's grateful, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei are still very pleased.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

The sun is shining.

Gu Chen drove around West Street and came to the commercial street that was extended.

Rushing back to the canteen of the Seremban branch is already unlikely.

But that's fine, on the contrary, Lu Weiwei doesn't mind, but is very pleased.

You can find a restaurant on the side of the road with Gu Chen and solve the problem of lunch.

After parking the car, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei began to look for food along the street.

"Senior Sister Lu, why don't you find a restaurant by the way?" Gu Chen asked.

Lu Weiwei waved her hand: "Senior Brother Gu, you can't eat lunch casually, let's find a restaurant with literary and artistic points, there will be an atmosphere and mood for eating like that." ”

Gu Chen hurriedly looked around......

You know, this is an old community, and most of the storefronts on both sides are simple restaurants, mainly doing low-end business.

When it comes to literature and art, Gu Chen really didn't see how much literature and art could go in such a place.

However, since Lu Weiwei wanted to, Gu Chen still nodded and agreed, followed Lu Weiwei, and the two continued to walk forward.

At this moment, Gu Chen suddenly heard a movement in his ears, a tarpaulin below between the two floors seemed to be smashed by something, and soon, a watch slipped from the tarpaulin and fell directly at Gu Chen's feet.

Lu Weiwei was also stunned: "What's the situation, what is this? I can bear the pie falling from the sky, how many consciousnesses are the guests dropping the watch from the sky? Who did it?"

"This watch is of good quality. Gu Chen squatted down, picked up the watch, and took it in his hand to examine it carefully.

Outwardly, under the cushioning of the tarpaulin, the watch was not damaged.

Seeing that no one responded, Lu Weiwei hurriedly turned around and asked Gu Chen, "How is it?"

"I don't know much about watches, so Senior Sister Lu will help me take a look?" Gu Chen didn't know much about watches, and what he was wearing on his hand was still given to him by Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei was not ambiguous, took it in her hand and studied it, and when she pulled up Gu Chen's left hand, compared with the watch she gave Gu Chen, she suddenly felt that the grade was comparable.

"This watch seems to be quite expensive, but how could it fall from the sky?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly looked around.

On both sides of the building, there are five-story residents.

And the streets are narrow, and it's really not easy to find the person who cast the watch.

"If this watch is really valuable, how could it be thrown here?" Gu Chen also looked up at the sides and found that many of the windows on both sides were open.

It's not easy to pinpoint where the watch fell from.

At the same time that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were standing in place, a man on the fifth floor suddenly poked his head out, and after searching downstairs, he found that the watch had fallen on the bodies of the two policemen, and the whole person couldn't help but be stunned.

"I'm sorry. The man shouted to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei downstairs: "Comrade policeman, that watch is mine, I'll come down immediately, you guys wait for me here." ”

Wei Wei said angrily: "Yes, the lost owner is here." ”

After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei said again: "But how did he do it?"

It didn't take long for a tall and thin man to run downstairs and come to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei.

"This watch is yours?" Gu Chen asked.

"Yes. The man was also quite embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, when I took off my watch just now, I accidentally fell off, are you okay?"

"It's fine. Gu Chen smiled and said, "But it's not good for you to be sloppy like this." ”

"That's right, it's good that I didn't hurt anyone, if I hurt Senior Brother Gu, I won't be done with you. Lu Weiwei was also quite dissatisfied.

It was a bit thrilling just now, an item of this weight like a watch fell from the fifth floor, if it wasn't for Gu Chen's walking full and there was a canopy as a buffer, otherwise this watch would probably have smashed on Gu Chen's head.

That's why Lu Weiwei was unhappy.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's my fault. The man looked at the two people in police uniforms, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, not daring to offend.

"It's fine. Gu Chen handed him the watch and said, "The watch is very beautiful, it should be expensive, right?"

"Thank you. The man took the watch, thanked him with relief, and then stuffed it into his pocket: "This is what my brother left me." ”

"Your brother?" Lu Weiwei on the side couldn't help but doubt.

"Yes, I passed away a year ago, many illnesses caused by excessive drinking. When the man said this, he was also quite sad and said, "After he died, I always carried this watch with me." ”

Seeing Gu Chen staring at him, the man said again: "But I'm healthy, and I'm still a middle school physical education teacher." ”

Gu Chen smiled: "That's right, you seem to be in good condition, and your body is also healthy in all aspects." ”

"Thank you, and it's also because of regular exercise. Seeing that he had talked too much with the police, the man couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Look at me, I'm telling you this, why am I telling you this? ”

With that, the man turned and left along the gap between the two buildings.

"It turned out to be a PE teacher. Looking at the back of the man leaving, Lu Weiwei sighed and said, "Fortunately, I didn't hit your senior brother Gu just now, otherwise I would definitely be injured, this person is too unreliable, and he is reckless." ”

Seeing that Gu Chen had been standing in place, Lu Weiwei asked again, "Senior Brother Gu, what's wrong with you?"

"Senior Sister Lu, I think we should not eat yet. Gu Chen said.

"Not eating?" Lu Weiwei glared and asked weakly, "What do you want to do without eating?"

"No, that's not what I meant. Gu Chen smiled, pointed to the route the man left just now, and said, "Don't you think this man is suspicious?"

"Suspicious?" was reminded by Gu Chenyi, Lu Weiwei hurriedly turned her head and looked at the aisle where the man had disappeared, her mind falling into deep thought.

"That's right. Gu Chen took two steps back and looked upstairs: "This watch fell in the middle of the alley, what does this mean?"

"Explain ......" Lu Weiwei hesitated slightly, and replied weakly: "It means that the watch was thrown out?"

"That's right, it was thrown out. Gu Chen's answer was still firm.

Lu Weiwei hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, why did this guy throw his watch out?

Looking at Gu Chen's disappointed look, Lu Weiwei waved her hand again: "It's not that you wait, let me think about it." ”

After a while, Lu Weiwei said again: "Oh, I know, he must have found that the watch had fallen into the hands of our police after throwing it out, and he was afraid that the police would hold him responsible, so he came to apologize and retrieve the watch, right?"

Seeing that Gu Chen still looked disappointed, Lu Weiwei fell into a tangle again, and said to herself: "Eh? That's not right, why did he throw the watch out? Or ...... This watch doesn't belong to this physical education teacher at all?"

"Senior Sister Lu, you've finally opened up. Gu Chen was also quite relieved, although Lu Weiwei was a little sluggish, she couldn't keep up with her thoughts.

"It's really not his?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and the whole person was curious.

Gu Chen looked at Lu Weiwei and said, "Senior Sister Lu, do you remember the situation of this watch at that time, have you noticed the special features of this watch?"

I also observed the watch just now, so Gu Chen still has a certain basis for his guess.

Lu Weiwei scratched the back of her head and said, "What's special...... Isn't it expensive?"

Seeing Gu Chen shaking his head, Lu Weiwei said again: "Senior Brother Gu, I really don't know this, don't sell it, what's so special about this watch, tell me about it?"

"Didn't you notice that only the sixth clasp on the strap buckle has buckle marks?" Gu Chen also got straight to the point, and said: "This shows that the watch has been worn by someone, if it has been worn by a man, there should be two buckle marks, because his wrist is relatively thin." ”

"And you also said that this watch is expensive, and I think it is true, but this man's behavior makes it difficult for me to imagine that this expensive watch is his. ”

"The reason is very simple, if the man said that he cherished this watch very much, and it was a relic of his brother, then the first time he got this watch, it should be to check whether the watch was broken. ”

But when the man got the watch, he didn't check whether it was damaged, but put it in his pocket, which means that he didn't want to look at the watch at all. ”
