Chapter 2143

4:20 p.m.

With the unremitting efforts of Gu Chen and the others, everyone contacted the rescue team on the top of Fairy Peak, and together they put the bodies of Chen Li and Huba in front of the supply station on the top of the mountain.

As an important suspect, Liu Xing was brought to the top of the mountain by Gu Chen and others. Afterwards, everyone prepared to take Liu Xing to the Furong branch.

Originally, he wanted to ask Liu Xing about the situation, but Liu Xing insisted that he was acting in self-defense.

In order to make Liu Xing completely give up, Gu Chen planned to have the fire rescue team transport the bodies of Hu Ba and Chen Li down the mountain.

Afterwards, the bodies of the two will be sent to the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau and handed over to the forensic team for autopsy.

Especially Huba's body, although Gu Chen was already at the scene, he made a preliminary inference based on Huba's wound.

In addition, a detailed investigation of the situation at the scene was also conducted, but the final test by the forensic team was required to obtain the results.

Although everyone has found Huba and Chen Li among the missing persons, Chen Li's boss, Zou Xiong, is still missing.

But Gu Chen believes that Zou Xiong may also encounter an accident.

If Zou Xiong is dead, then Zou Xiong's body must be buried in a secret place.

From the current point of view, it seems that the only breakthrough to find this clue lies in the suspect Liu Xing.

"Gu Ju, we took him away." Wu Xiaofeng closed the car door and also reported to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "Take them back to the branch office first. In addition, Ji Zhe followed the fire rescue team and helped me take the bodies of Chen Li and Huba to the technical department of the city bureau."

"Understood, leave it to me, Gu Ju." Hearing this, Ji Zhe readily agreed.

Several cars started instantly and drove away from Fairy Peak.

Seeing this situation, Lu Weiwei also came to Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, should we go to the Explorers Club now? After all, this Explorers Club, it seems, is very problematic now."

"Of course." Gu Chen paused, and then said: "At the Explorer's Club, I have asked Senior Brother He to pay close attention."

"As long as there is a situation, he will report to me. It just so happens that we have cut off Liu Xing's contact with the outside world. If Liu Xing doesn't say anything, this just shows that there is actually a big problem with this Explorer's Club."

"Yes." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Police Officer Wang quickly answered:

"Our equipment is borrowed from the Explorer's Club. It just so happens that we can use this reason to go to the Explorer's Club to see the situation."

"Then what if someone inside the Explorers Club asks about the whereabouts of their boss Liu Xing? How should we answer?" Yuan Shasha also expressed her doubts.

"That is to say, Liu Xing was injured during the process of leading the way. I greeted the people around me and asked them not to tell what happened in Fairy Peak, and to keep it strictly confidential."

"Let's just say, Liu Xing is currently receiving treatment, and we will keep the mobile phone and so on for the time being."

As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Liu Xing's cell phone rang.

Because everyone stayed in the mountains before, the signal was not strong, so they lost contact with the outside world for a short time.

But now, as soon as he walked out of Fairy Maiden Peak, Liu Xing's cell phone received a call immediately.

At the same time, Gu Chen also found that there were several unread text messages along with the phone call.

However, since Gu Chen doesn't have Liu Xing's mobile phone password, he can't check it for the time being, and he plans to hand it over to He Junchao to help him decipher it.

But now, a call from Zhang De immediately alerted Gu Chen.

"Gu Chen, pick it up." Officer Wang looked at the phone screen and reminded.

"Okay." At this moment, Gu Chen didn't care too much, so he could only press the answer button.

Soon, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Liu Xing, what are you doing? You don't answer the phone."

"Hello." Gu Chen interrupted the man directly, and also replied: "This is Liu Xing's cell phone, but Liu Xing is not with you right now, who are you?"

"Uh, you're not Liu Xing?" After hearing Gu Chen's reply, the man on the other end of the phone visibly dissipated a lot, and then changed his tone and continued to ask:

"then who are you?"

"I'm Gu Chen, the acting deputy director of the Furong branch." Gu Chen also reported his family name.

Hearing that it was the acting deputy director of the Furong branch, the middle-aged man on the other end of the phone spoke in a much more polite tone than before:



"Hey, it's Director Gu? I'm sorry, I'm Liu Xing's partner. I have something to do with him. I don't know if it's inconvenient for the police officer. Give him the phone and ask him to answer it?"

"It's not convenient at the moment." As soon as the man here finished speaking, Gu Chen also said truthfully: "Liu Xing is currently injured and is receiving treatment. I will keep the phone temporarily."

"Injured?" The man on the other end of the phone was also taken aback, and then asked again:

"Gu Ju, how did he get injured?"

"As a guide for us, he fell and injured himself on the mountain." Gu Chen said.

"Oh." Hearing Gu Chen's speech, the man on the other end of the phone was also silent for a few seconds, and then said again:

"Then... let's do this first, it's really troublesome, thank you."

The voice of the man here fell, and when he was about to hang up the phone, Gu Chen hurriedly asked, "Your name is Zhang De, right?"

"Uh, yes." Zhang De on the other end of the phone quickly agreed.

"Are you Liu Xing's partner, are you a partner of the Explorers Club?" Gu Chen asked again.

"Yes, I am a shareholder of the Explorers Club and a partner of Liu Xing."

Zhang De continued to reply.

Gu Chen probably guessed it too, so he hurriedly asked again: "Then are you in the Explorers Club now?"

"Yes, what's the matter?" Zhang De looked puzzled.

"That's good." Gu Chen also said bluntly: "We borrowed a few sets of equipment from your Explorer's Club, and now we are going to return them to you. Would you like to wait for us at the Explorer's Club?"

"Uh, this." Hearing that Gu Chen was coming to the Explorers Club, Zhang De hesitated for a few seconds, and quickly made an excuse and said:

"Why don't you just hand over the equipment to the front desk when Gu Ju is here? Some of us will accept it."

"No, that's not what I meant." Seeing that Zhang De didn't seem to understand what he meant, Gu Chen hurriedly explained:

"I mean, I want to meet Boss Zhang and have a good chat."

"Ah?" Zhang De, who just understood at this moment, was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized, and said with a smile:

"So that's the case? That's fine, then I'll be at the Explorers Club, waiting for Gu Ju to visit."

The two were also on the phone, exchanged a few words of courtesy, and then both hung up the phone.

"Junior Brother Gu, what do you say over there?" Lu Weiwei hurried over and asked.

Gu Chen took a deep breath, and also thought about it: "This Zhang De, he hesitates when he speaks, he seems hesitant to speak."

"It seems that there are some things that I can't talk about in detail on the phone with me, or that there are some things that he just wants to communicate with Liu Xing and doesn't want me to know."

After changing the subject, Gu Chen said again: "However, I have already told him that we have to come to the Explorers Club to return the equipment, and let him wait for us there by the way."

"That's just right, let's go quickly? We can't waste any more time." Yuan Shasha hurriedly reminded her.

Everyone didn't waste time. After handing over the scene to Captain Hu of the fire rescue team, they immediately drove to the Explorers Club.

...

...

5:40 p.m.

When Gu Chen drove to the entrance of the Explorers Club, there were already many luxury cars parked at the entrance.

It seems that these members come to the club to exercise.

After all, everyone has done their homework on the Explorers Club before, and they also know the club's operations.

It is mainly patronized by old members, so there is no need to worry about no customers.

Moreover, the entry threshold is very high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to join even if they have money.

Invisibly, the Explorers Club quickly became a high-end social circle.

Gu Chen's police car was parked among many luxury cars, obviously out of tune with the surrounding environment.

After getting off the car, Gu Chen and the others, who had changed into police uniforms, also carried their climbing equipment and walked to the Explorers Club together.

At this moment, a young woman at the front desk, who looks like a part-time student, seems to have been waiting for something?

When she saw Gu Chen and the others walking into the gate of the club, she immediately stood up, stepped forward to greet her and said, "Which one of you is Director Gu Chen?"

"I am." Gu Chen said, carrying the equipment.

The young woman looked Gu Chen up and down, and she was a little unbelievable: "You are Director Gu? But you look quite young?"

"Can't you be the director if you are young?" Lu Weiwei who was on the side looked at the young woman's nympho look, and couldn't help but complain.

The young woman regained her composure and quickly replied, "I'm sorry, it's because our boss said that a director of the Furong branch is coming to return the equipment. Let me entertain you."

"I just didn't expect that the director of your Furong branch would be so young? I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

After all, she is the female receptionist of a high-end club, so the young woman's vision is naturally broadened.

I have seen many high-end people of all kinds, and I understand the truth that people should not be judged by appearances.

Gu Chen is so young, he can be seen as someone with a profound background.

Especially the boss repeatedly told her that the young woman naturally knew that she couldn't neglect her small receptionist.

So they led Gu Chen and the others to the warehouse on the first floor, put the equipment on the spot, and turned around to take everyone away.

When Police Officer Wang saw this, he also asked curiously: "Aren't you going to check it? This seems to be going into storage, right? Are you not afraid of missing things?"

"No need." The young woman smiled awkwardly: "We are a high-end club here, and the clients are all people of status and status, with a good reputation."

"Of course, our boss Liu can lend you the equipment, and you just have to return it. If I go into the warehouse for inspection again, wouldn't it appear that we are stingy."

After a pause, the young woman said again: "Besides, how could people of status and status like you damage our things? We can trust you."

"Thank you for your trust, but..." Yuan Shasha looked around, and hurriedly reminded:

"But, your boss Zhang Dezhang, did you say hello to you? We have an appointment with him."

"Yes, you reminded me." Seeing Yuan Shasha mentioning this matter, the young woman also nodded silently, and then said:

"Come with me, those few, I will take you to see Boss Zhang now."

"Okay." Gu Chen echoed, and briefly exchanged eye contact with his colleagues before following the young woman through the living room on the first floor.

At this moment, on the round seat in the living room on the first floor, several men in high-end casual clothes were exchanging matters.

Seeing that Gu Chen and the others were wearing police uniforms, he couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

As for the young woman, she directly led Gu Chen and the others to the second floor to the door of an office.

The young woman knocked on the door, and stood at the door to remind her, "Mr. Zhang, the guests from the Furong Branch have arrived."

"Please come in." A middle-aged man responded from inside the house.

"Okay." Hearing this, the young woman immediately opened the door, stepped aside and said, "Guys, please come in."

Gu Chen nodded slightly, and was the first to enter the office.

At this moment, only a few men were talking and laughing, and everyone had already stood up, as if they were about to break up.

When a bald man saw Gu Chen, he immediately joked with the people around him, "Then shall we talk next time?"

"OK."

"Then let's go first."

"Let's talk about it next time."

The three men were also chatting and laughing, and left the office directly. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

When passing by Gu Chen and the others, everyone subconsciously glanced at the uniforms of Gu Chen and the others.

The young woman hurried forward, came up to the bald man, and reminded, "Mr. Zhang, they are the guests of the Furong branch."

"Well, go make a few cups of tea." The bald man straightened his shirt, and after instructing the female receptionist, he walked towards Gu Chen and the others with a smile on his face.

"Hey, some guests are here for the first time, and some of them are not well received."

While speaking, the bald man directly skipped Gu Chen, came to Police Officer Wang, and shook hands with Police Officer Wang cordially:

"You are the well-known Director Gu Chen of the Furong Sub-bureau, right? You have heard the name for a long time, and you have heard it like thunder. You have wanted to meet Director Gu for a long time, but you just haven't had the opportunity."

"I didn't expect that today is such a coincidence that I can meet you in my explorer's club. I am so lucky."

While joking, Zhang De held Officer Wang with his familiar right hand, and patted Officer Wang's shoulder with his left hand.

Officer Wang raised his brows, and said jokingly, "Are you sure you've seen me?"

"Well……"

Zhang De hesitated for a few seconds, and quickly glanced at Gu Chen and the others from the corner of his eye.

Upon discovering that the police officer Wang had the highest rank at the scene, he immediately shook his right index finger and said with a smile:

"Of course I have. Director Gu's prestige is well-known in our Furong sub-bureau."

"I used to……"

Halfway through speaking, Zhang De pretended to raise his head to think again, and then slowly said: "I once attended a meeting, and it seemed that Director Gu was there. At that time, I felt that Director Gu was heroic, that is called a..."

"Mr. Zhang." The female receptionist who had made a cup of tea seemed to be afraid that her boss would be too embarrassing, so she came over and whispered: "He is not Gu Ju."
