"Senior Brother Gu, what are you looking for?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and immediately walked to Gu Chen's side.

Gu Chen still didn't answer, but took out a tissue, put it between the deceased's fingers, and gently pulled it out.

At this moment, a fried object appeared in front of him.

Gu Chen took out another paper towel again, wrapped the fried item in the middle, and slowly unfolded it.

At this moment, he also looked at Lu Weiwei with a puzzled expression and asked, "Senior Sister Lu, what kind of food is this?"

"This ......" Lu Weiwei, who has the attribute of a foodie, also said uncertainly after careful observation: "It won't be fried oyster yellow, right?"

"Deep-fried oyster yellow?" Gu Chen asked with reconfirmation.

Lu Weiwei couldn't judge for a while, so she had to call Yuan Shasha and Officer Wang.

"Xiao Yuan, Lao Wang, you two also come over and take a look, see what this thing is?"

"Fried?" Officer Wang took a closer look, and then took an observation: "There is starch on the surface of the fried object. ”

Gently breaking it away with his hand, Officer Wang frowned: "There are still ...... Eggs, it should also be peppered and salted. ”

"What do you think it should be?" asked Lou.

After careful study, Officer Wang affirmed Lu Weiwei's statement just now: "You judged correctly, it should be fried oyster yellow." ”

"Could it be the food that Liu Mazi ate that day?" Gu Chen frowned, and hurriedly walked out of the room and came to the kitchen.

At this moment, Gu Chen was really in an iron pot and found that he hadn't picked up a pot of oil to fry yet.

Not only that, but the other dishes made by Liu Mazi were basically unchanged.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen suddenly clasped his hands to his chest, thoughtful.

"Could it be that Liu Mazi was visiting before the meal, and then Liu Mazi picked up the food and went to open the door, but was killed?"

After Gu Chen thought about it, he immediately shook his head again, and denied himself: "No, is it true that Liu Mazi usually eats and grabs it directly by hand? What if it is just baked and hot?"

Thinking of this, Gu Chen hurriedly returned to the house, returned to Liu Mazi's corpse, and re-examined his right hand that grabbed the fried oyster yellow.

"Senior Brother Gu, what are you looking at?" Yuan Shasha didn't know what to expect, but when Gu Chen checked just now, Yuan Shasha had been paying attention.

Therefore, wherever Gu Chen went, or what subtle changes in his expression were, it was easy for Yuan Shasha to be curious.

The reason is very simple, the reason why Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang follow Gu Chen and can always improve a lot of case handling skills is that Gu Chen can always find important clues first.

And reasoning based on clues doesn't seem to be too difficult.

But the most difficult thing is to collect clues, which Yuan Shasha knows best.

Due to the limited number of times she can follow Gu Chen to attend, Yuan Shasha especially cherishes every time she handles a case with Gu Chen.

Gu Chen also re-examined Liu Mazi's palm in detail, and then said confirmatively: "Liu Mazi's palm obviously has burn marks. ”

"Burns, is it fried oyster yellow?" Ding Liang asked.

Gu Chen nodded and said, "If there are no other accidents, I think so." ”

The words fell, and the scene suddenly fell silent for a while.

Officer Wang also frowned, squatted down again, and confirmed Gu Chen's statement just now.

And Lu Weiwei also asked thoughtfully: "If, according to what Senior Brother Gu said, the palm of the deceased Liu Mazi was scalded by fried oyster yellow, then why didn't he use chopsticks, but grabbed it with his hands?"

"Also, is he still in the mood to eat in the face of the gangsters who assassinated him? ”

"It's kind of weird. Gu Chen picked up Lu Weiwei's words, then stood up and said, "I checked the kitchen just now, and there are still some fried oyster yellows in the pot that have not been scooped up. ”

"And in addition to that, there are a few other dishes, and none of them have been touched, what does that mean?"

"Description...... The deceased, Liu Mazi, was killed for meal money. Huang Zunlong replied.

Yuan Shasha also immediately added: "It means that the room may not be the first scene, Liu Mazi is likely to be killed in the living room, and then dragged into the room by the murderer." ”

Gu Chen looked at the two of them, nodded slightly, and said, "What you both said is right, if you look at the current situation, the deceased Liu Mazi was indeed killed before the meal, after all, the food has not been touched." ”

And Liu Mazi took the hot fried oyster yellow and poured it in the room, which is very telling in itself, which is also the biggest doubt. ”

"Suspicious?" everyone looked at each other, as if they didn't quite understand.

After Xu Zhenggang hesitated again and again, he asked Gu Chen bluntly: "So Gu Chen, what do you think is the suspicion?"

"The fried oyster yellow in his hand. Gu Chen said.

"Fried oyster yellow again?" Lu Weiwei was also instinctively startled, and then said: "So Senior Brother Gu, do you think that this fried oyster yellow that is a little hot is very likely to be the information that the deceased Liu Mazi wants to leave us?"

"Probably. Gu Chen was also quite sure, holding his hands on his chest and thinking left and right.

At this time, he looked at a few old men around him, and then found the tall and thin man just now, and asked him: "Liu Mazi teaches in the children's school, so what kind of course does he teach?"

"Which course?" this ......" the tall and thin man thought carefully, and then said: "I can't remember it clearly now, otherwise I'll help you ask." ”

Then, the tall and thin uncle said to the fat man not far away: "Lao He, do you know which course Liu Mazi taught when he was teaching in school?"

"Creature well, I seem to remember him teaching creature all the time. The fat man said.

"Is that for sure?" asked the tall and thin man again.

As a result, the fat man said categorically: "Of course I know, he also taught my grandson, I can't be wrong." ”

"Creature?" After getting the fat uncle's reply, Gu Chen frowned, and temporarily recorded this information on a sticky note.

At this time, Officer Wang also gathered these old people together and asked directly: "Since Liu Mazi lives alone, is there anyone who has a close relationship with him?"

"Close friends?"

When several big men heard this, they immediately looked at each other.

But after everyone whispered to each other, another white-bearded old man stood up and said: "If you want to say that there are people who have a close relationship with Liu Mazi, to be honest, there are really not many. ”

"But I remember that his ex-wife would often come to the house to negotiate with him because of the custody of the children in the divorce. ”

"However, every time the two of them broke up, and there was not a single time that they did not quarrel, and I lived opposite them, and I often heard the sound of miscellaneous things in the room. ”

"Do they have such a big hatred?" Gu Chen asked.

The white-bearded old man smiled and said: "Although it is said that it is a hundred days of grace for a husband and wife, but since the marriage has come to an end, it is another matter." ”

It was during that time that Liu Mazi's reputation in the unit became stinky, causing many female colleagues to avoid him. ”

"I always feel that as long as I get close to him, it is easy to be misunderstood, and seeing him is like hiding from the plague god. ”

So during that time, it was also the time when Liu Mazi and his wife quarreled the most, and the two often fought. ”

Gu Chen nodded slightly after hearing this, and said, "In other words, during that time, the two were almost incompatible, and the contradiction was the deepest?"

"Yes. The white-bearded old man was very sure, and he also raised his head and thought: "There have been a few times that the police have been alarmed, and the police have come to mediate." ”

"So if you want to say who has the most motive to kill, I think it should be his ex-wife, because I have heard his ex-wife say several times that if Liu Mazi does not return the custody of her daughter to her, she will let him die an ugly death. ”

She ...... Did she really say that, or was it just a momentary outrage?" asked Lou.

The white-bearded old man scratched the back of his head: "This ...... Anyway, I don't know very well, I just feel that these two couples are really incompatible, after all, his ex-wife has said this more than once, who knows if it's angry words. ”

After Gu Chen briefly recorded this information, he asked: "Except for Liu Mazi's ex-wife, what about the others? Are there any people who have frequent contacts with him but are hostile to him? For example, some female colleagues who are rumored to be very close to him, or the family members of these female colleagues?"

"After all, Liu Mazi has ruined their reputation, hasn't he?"

"This ......" The white-bearded old man frowned, looked at the tall and thin man beside him, and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think?" The tall and thin man looked helpless and said, "How can you say this? There must be anger, but I feel that the other party is quite rational, after all, the relationship with these female colleagues is not clear, and we are just hearsay." ”

"Besides, Liu Mazi is also a person with a regular life, every day after work, he is basically at home at night, just like that, what do you expect Liu Mazi to do? At most, at work, he may be too close to these female colleagues. ”

"Yes, and these female colleagues don't seem to have suffered any losses, and they don't want to admit that they are too close to him Liu Mazi, so there is no possibility of extreme hatred with him. ”

"Well, I think so, too. ”

"Those female colleagues seem to dislike Liu Mazi, right?"

The uncles instantly turned into Sherlock Holmes, and they all began to analyze the possible murderer of Liu Mazi according to the information they had.

Gu Chen didn't get too many useful clues in this information, so he asked again: "Then do you know that in addition to Liu Mazi's ex-wife, there are also these so-called female colleagues, as well as the families of female colleagues, and are there any other people who move around with him frequently?"

In order to get the point to these old masters, Gu Chen instantly changed his words: "Whether it is a conflict with him or not, are there any people who have frequent contacts with him during this time?"

"Yes!" After a while, the fat man stretched out his hand and said, "Comrade policeman, I think of one person." ”

"Who?" asked Gu Chen.

"His cousin, his cousin seems to have been here a few times during this time, and I met a few times on the playground. The fat man said.

Gu Chen frowned, hurriedly recorded this information, and said, "What kind of job does his cousin have, where does he live at home, and what is his name, do you know any of this?"

"It seems that you work in a bar in the city, right?" The fat man didn't reply, but the tall and thin man succeeded in answering.

"Bar?" Gu Chen pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Can you be more specific, like the name of the bar or something?"

"I guess it's called a rose bar, but it's on the other side of Sports Road anyway. The tall and thin man said.

"Very good. Gu Chen also nodded, and said happily: "So, except for his ex-wife and his cousin, no one has been moving around with him frequently during this time, right?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

The tall and thin man also couldn't help but say: "Comrade policeman, we have already explained everything that should be explained to you, if you want to say that there is any, it is indeed gone." ”

"After all, he Liu Mazi is also a very withdrawn person, and he usually doesn't want to communicate too much with us. ”

"And now that the enterprise is restructured, the talents of this chemical plant have been dug up to another company in the city, and the family members who can move away have already left here, and those of us who have no skills are basically still staying here. ”

"As long as we don't demolish it, we will basically retire here. ”

Listening to everyone's words, Gu Chen nodded frequently, and after sorting out the information, he smiled at several masters and said, "It's really troublesome everyone, if there are any latest clues, please notify us immediately." ”

Speaking of this, after Gu Chen wrote down the office phone number of the third criminal investigation group, he tore it off the sticky note paper and handed it to the tall and thin uncle: "This is our office phone, with the names of several of us on it, you just need to say that you can look for us." ”

"Yes. After the tall and thin man took the note, he asked weakly: "That...... Can we go now?"

"Absolutely. Gu Chen also said with a smile.

Several uncles left in a heartbreak......

At this time, Officer Wang also hung up the phone after contacting the technical department of the city bureau.

He looked at Gu Chen and the others, and said lightly: "The technical department of the city bureau, we will send a car over later, we need to protect the scene now." ”

"I understand. Ding Liang nodded understandingly, and said, "Leave it to me and Huang Zunlong here, you go and investigate Liu Mazi's ex-wife and his cousin." ”

"Then please. Officer Wang also smiled, but when he looked back, Gu Chen was gone, and he suddenly wondered, "Where did Gu Chen go?"

"I'm in the room. In another room, Gu Chen's response suddenly came.

When Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei, Yuan Shasha and Xu Zhenggang came to the door of the room, Gu Chen had already found Liu Mazi's ID card in a bedside table.

Then wrap it in a tissue and put it in your pocket......

"Do you need to continue the search here?" asked Lu Weiwei.

"Look for it. Gu Chen walked out of the room, looked at Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, and immediately said with a smile: "You two are in charge of guarding the scene here, and in addition, look for other clues in the room to see if there is anything missing." ”

"If you make a new discovery, don't hesitate to keep in touch with us. ”

"Huh. When Huang Zunlong heard this, he smiled at the time: "I said Gu Chen, with your anti-heaven observation, do we still have a chance?"

"There are always times when things slip through. Gu Chen patted the two of them on the shoulder, then took the ID card in his hand and said, "Liu Mazi, real name Liu Qi, that's all I know." ”

"But fortunately, those uncles just now provided us with two directions for investigation. ”

"It's Liu Qi's early stage and cousin, right?" asked Xu Zhenggang.

Gu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, at present, I can only target these two people, but there is one more thing that makes me very curious." ”

As soon as she heard that Gu Chen also had doubts, Yuan Shasha immediately asked again: "When Senior Brother Gu said curiosity, is he referring to the person who stuffed the note with W? Could he be another person? and not the real murderer?"

"Xiao Yuan, are you aware of it too?" Gu Chen wanted to say just now.

Although judging from the situation at the scene, the biggest suspects seem to have two, one is Liu Qi's early stage and the other is Liu Qi's cousin.

However, the person who stuffed Xu Zhenggang with a note and induced everyone to come to the scene of the crime seems to be the third person in addition to the two.

Judging from the only conditions on the scene at present, Gu Chen can't seem to deduce what the purpose of this mysterious person who stuffed the note is.

However, Gu Chen believed that what he saw in front of him would definitely have some mistakes.

After all, being able to lure everyone here shows that the other party has been prepared.

If this is the case, will there be other traps on the scene, which were deliberately arranged by the other party?

For now, Gu Chen is not easy to say, and he can only take one step at a time, trying to find out the real culprit as much as possible.

Xu Zhenggang also saw Gu Chen's concerns, so he approached him and said, "I said Gu Chen, hearing you say this, I suddenly feel as if I am very dangerous, and I feel that I am being targeted." ”

"You?" Gu Chen glanced at him.

"That's right. Xu Zhenggang said with great certainty: "Otherwise, why did that person just stuff a note for me? That obviously knows my relationship with you!"

"And thinking about it this way, it feels like the other party is hiding in the shadows, and we are in the light, and the ghost knows what unexpected things will happen?"

Gu Chen frowned and asked, "Then have you ever done anything that violates the law and discipline?"

"Uh......" Xu Zhenggang was stunned for a moment, and then asked weakly: "Huh...... Do you think I used to be quite arrogant, Gu Chen, was it arrogant and broke the law?"

Gu Chen: "......"

"Well, I'll admit it. Xu Zhenggang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "In addition to being arrogant on the field, I really haven't done anything out of the ordinary, even if I offended some team members on the racetrack, but that is a common thing on the race field, everyone is just fighting, and it will not rise to other aspects." ”

Looking at Gu Chen, Xu Zhenggang said lightly: "Besides, our brothers for so many years, don't you know me?"

"I believe in you. Gu Chen also smiled and said: "If you want to say justice or something, you guy has done a lot to make you commit crimes, I don't think you have the courage to do so now." ”

"That's right. Xu Zhenggang was also relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Chen asked him rhetorically: "So...... Since you haven't done anything illegal or undisciplined, what are you nervous about? What are you afraid of retaliation from?"

"Huh. Xu Zhenggang didn't know what to say, so he could only laugh dryly twice, and said indifferently: "Yes, I didn't do anything wrong, what am I afraid of?"

"This person who stuffed me with a note may just want to convey the news to your police through me, that's it, I'm worried about a fart!"

Speaking of which, Xu Zhenggang seemed to have been freed from the clouds just now, and he was not so worried and scared anymore.

Gu Chen looked at his watch, and then said, "It's not too early, we have to act immediately." ”

He looked at Officer Wang and said, "Senior Brother Wang." ”

"What do you say? Officer Wang understood.

"It's He Junchao who is on the night shift tonight, right?" asked Gu Chen.

Officer Wang nodded, shook his right index finger and said, "I understand, I'll call He Junchao and ask him to retrieve Liu Qi's ex-wife's information." ”

"Clever!" Gu Chen saw that Officer Wang cooperated tacitly, saving himself some cumbersome explanations, and the whole person was also happy in his heart.

Officer Wang took out his phone and started contacting, while Gu Chen opened the map of his mobile phone and found the rose bar near Tiyu Road.

It didn't take long for Officer Wang to receive a reply from Ho Junchao.

After some communication, he said to Gu Chen: "Liu Qi's ex-wife's address has been found, and it is some distance from here, why don't we go to Liu Qi's ex-wife first, and when we come back later, we will go to the Rose Bar on Tiyu Road?"

"Yes. "First far and then near, saving time is king, of course Gu Chen has to agree.

After cleaning up at the scene, everyone returned to the place where they had just parked.

At this moment, the assistant Lao Zhou is still lying in the driver's seat smoking a cigarette.

He turned the seat to 45 degrees and lay there with his whole body on his side while some soft music was playing in the car.

also found that everyone walked out of the gate of the family area, Lao Zhou quickly threw away the cigarettes, then pushed the door and got out of the car, came to Xu Zhenggang and said, "Xu Gongzi, have you seen 24?"

"Nope. Xu Zhenggang didn't know how to explain, but simply shook his head.

Assistant Lao Zhou frowned: "Didn't you see 24? So you have been there for so long? Could it be that the address is wrong?"

"Not really. Xu Zhenggang continued to shake his head, and said angrily: "Let's say, there is indeed nothing wrong with this address, but the person who stuffed the note didn't seem to let us go to 24 at all, but led us to this family area." ”

Saying this, Xu Zhenggang suddenly bowed down and approached the assistant Lao Zhoudao: "Do you know? ”

"Corpse...... Corpses?!"

Hearing this, Lao Zhou, the main force who was originally indifferent, couldn't help shrinking his whole body back, and looked at everyone with a dull gaze: "You...... You've been in there for so long because you found a body?"

"What else could it be?" Officer Wang also wondered: "Originally, I came to visit the 24th place in the International Circuit Billboard, but the result brought us a surprise. ”

After thinking about it, Officer Wang immediately changed his words again: "No, no, it should be said that it is 'fright', yes, it is fright, and sure enough, life is full of fright." ”

After some ridicule, everyone boarded the extended Mercedes-Benz one after another.

At this time, Lao Zhou, the assistant who was stuck on the outside of the driver's seat, asked Xu Zhenggang with a confused face: "Then Xu Gongzi, where are we going now?"

Xu Zhenggang sat in the carriage and leaned back: "Mountains and rivers home." ”

"Mountains and rivers home?" Assistant Lao Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "This place is quite far, and you have to run so far at night?"

......
