Chapter 2237

The surveillance system in the supermarket was deliberately damaged, and finally the police were called in. This made the supermarket owner suddenly realize the seriousness of the situation.
After sniffing and calming down for a while, the supermarket owner said again: "Someone did this on purpose? Didn't it come for me?"
"Then I want to ask you, is there anything missing in your supermarket?" Lu Weiwei said.
The supermarket owner shook his head: "No, everything in the supermarket is normal, and nothing has been lost in the past few days."
"That's for Hu Peng." Gu Chen told the truth, and walked up to the crowd and said:
"Judging from the current situation, this surveillance system does show signs of being artificially damaged."
"And not only that, this method has also appeared once in Jiangnan City before."
Seeing police officer Xiaoxuan and old Zhang Qiqi looking at him, Gu Chen said again: "We were searching for Zhou Xiaotong in the forest of Jiangnan City before, and found that someone has been following us."
"Originally, based on the conditions at the time, we could quickly locate the suspect who was following us, but something happened at a hot strip factory."
"The suspect said that he had been at the entrance of the Latiao factory, but the monitoring at the entrance of the Latiao factory was destroyed in advance, which resulted in insufficient evidence for us."
"What else?" Gu Chen had communicated with police officer Xiaoxuan about this matter, but Lao Zhang didn't know about it.
But now, after hearing what Gu Chen said, Lao Zhang suddenly realized that the situation didn't seem so simple.
After a short pause for thinking, Lao Zhang looked at the crowd and said involuntarily:
"If this is the case, does it mean that the monitoring of this supermarket is also done by that group? After all, this case is cross-regional."
"There is such a possibility." Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and said slowly:
"As far as the current situation is concerned, if Hu Peng drives past the intersection of Hushan Town, then the surveillance here will definitely be able to capture it."
"But the problem now is that this surveillance was accidentally destroyed just before Hu Peng entered Hushan Town."
"Also, the purpose of man-made damage to the supermarket surveillance was not to steal from the supermarket. No matter how you look at it, it looks like it's aimed at Hu Peng."
"The purpose is to cover up Hu Peng's whereabouts, but this seems too deliberate."
"Ouch." Hearing several policemen discussing here, the supermarket owner trembled suddenly, dragged his lame leg, and walked to Lu Weiwei's side in small steps:
"Comrade police, what you say is so serious, it's scary."
"What's so scary about this?" Officer Xiaoxuan frowned, and said in a bad mood:
"As long as you don't lie, tell the situation clearly as soon as possible, so that we can come and investigate the situation as soon as possible."
"But you are just perfunctory in order to save trouble. Do you know how much trouble you will bring to our work?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The current supermarket owner, like a child who made a mistake, kept bowing and apologizing. It seemed that it was his own fault, which caused the police's investigation to be hindered.
When Lao Zhang saw this, he hurried over to smooth things over and said, "Okay, the cripple didn't do it on purpose. The current situation is that Hu Peng has indeed entered Hushan Town."
"Since he is in Hushan Town, he still drove that white car to Hushan Town, I think it shouldn't be difficult to find him."
"After all, Hushan Town is such a big place. If he wants to go out, he has to go through this intersection."
"So, the top priority now is to mobilize the grid personnel in Hushan Town, and let them mobilize the masses to see if anyone has seen the white car with the robot cat on the fuel tank cap."
"If there is any discovery, I will let these people respond immediately."
"Will it work?" Officer Wang asked incredulously.
Lao Zhang patted his chest and assured: "I dare not say anything else, I still have the ability to mobilize the masses, just wait."
As soon as Lao Zhang finished speaking, he immediately took out his mobile phone and began reporting the case in the grid group in Hushan Town.
After some text editing, Lao Zhang sent a voice message to the group: "Everyone, according to the situation I said, immediately mobilize the people in your respective grids, and ask everyone to help find this car, the sooner the better. "
"The license plate, vehicle status, and the photo of the man named Hu Peng. I have already sent it to the group. You forward it to your respective groups, so that everyone can mobilize and look for it."
"If you find anything, report it to me immediately, as soon as possible."
After sending the voice, everyone in the grid group immediately began to reply.
Taking a deep breath, Lao Zhang also said unhurriedly: "Then what? It's useless to talk too much now, as long as the car hasn't left our Hushan Town, then we can definitely find it."
"We are now squatting at this intersection and waiting for news quietly. Don't worry."
"Can you be in a hurry? What time is it?" Officer Xiaoxuan crossed her arms and said casually.
When Lao Zhang heard this, he also smiled and said, "Well, the responsibility lies with me."
Glancing at the supermarket owner, Lao Zhang said again: "And you, lame."
"Understood." The owner of the supermarket, who understood, immediately said to everyone with a smile on his face:
"Then what? I invite everyone to drink, whichever flavor you like, just take it."
"You don't have to think about anything, just sit at my door and wait for the news."
Seeing that everyone was still too cautious, the supermarket owner glanced at Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang is familiar with himself. He walked to the freezer in the supermarket, picked a few bottles of Coke at random, and brought them directly to everyone:
"Have some drinks, you can't be in a hurry, maybe we will have news in the next second?"
"I hope so." Yuan Shasha took the drink in Lao Zhang's hand, unscrewed the bottle cap, and took a sip.
But here, Yuan Shasha had just had a drink, and there seemed to be a response in Lao Zhang's grid group.
Lao Zhang clicked on it and exclaimed, "Yes, yes."
"What's the matter?" Officer Xiaoxuan asked.
"It's the white car. Some people found that car parked in an open space on Hushan Middle Road."
"Is it still there?" Gu Chen hurriedly asked.
"Should still be there." After Lao Zhang's voice fell, he looked at the crowd again.
Gu Chen hurriedly walked towards the vehicle and said, "Let's go now, and leave a few people here to guard."
"Okay." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Police Officer Xiaoxuan immediately said to several trainee police officers: "You guys, stay here and pay close attention to Hu Peng's movements."
"Once you find out that Hu Peng has left here, you will know what to do."
"Understood." Several trainee policemen looked at each other in blank dismay, and immediately understood what Officer Xiaoxuan meant.
After everyone got in the car, they drove directly towards Hushan Middle Road.
Hushan Middle Road is actually not too far from the supermarket here, and Hushan Town itself is not big, and it is built in the middle of the forest.
Therefore, it was only a few minutes away, and Lao Zhang brought everyone to the target area.
Parking the car on the side of the road, Gu Chen lowered the window and looked towards the open space.
This place seems to be a place of debris, like a base for recycling waste items.
At this moment, Gu Chen also noticed at a glance that the white car was parked among a pile of waste products.
Due to the messy piles of waste in the waste collection area, the white car parked in the middle served as a good cover.
After Gu Chen and the others got out of the car, they began to block the entrance and exit, and then Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha to the front of the white car.
But at this moment, there was no one in the car, and Hu Peng had long disappeared.
And Lu Weiwei also instinctively walked towards the fuel tank area of ​​the vehicle, looking at the Doraemon sticker on the fuel tank cap.
Coupled with the fact that the license plate numbers matched perfectly, Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We finally found it. That's right, this car belongs to Hu Peng."
"But where is Hu Peng now?" Yuan Shasha looked around, and there seemed to be no one managing the place.
All discarded items are discarded at will.
If it weren't for the roadside area, which is surrounded by iron nets and a container house, otherwise everyone would really think this is a garbage dump.
"What is this place for? Waste collection department?" Officer Wang walked up to Lao Zhang and asked.
Lao Zhang nodded silently: "That's right, this place is indeed a buyer of scrap products. The boss seems to be surnamed Xu, and he is an old man."
"Then is there no one to manage this place? Is it just empty all the time?" Gu Chen also asked curiously.
Lao Zhang shook his head: "I'm not sure, maybe that old man went out to buy scraps? However, his business is only in Hushan Town."
"Besides, he's the only one who buys scraps in Hushan Town."
"Then does this person know Hu Peng? Could he provide the venue?" Yuan Shasha wondered.
After all, Hu Peng's vehicle was parked in the scrap collection area, and the supermarket surveillance at the intersection was sabotaged.
To a certain extent, everyone has reason to believe that the damage to the surveillance system was caused by someone deliberately covering Hu Peng.
And Hu Peng's vehicle was parked at the scrap yard, maybe the owner of the scrap yard was covering him.
Lao Zhang was a little embarrassed, but he still took out his mobile phone and started making calls.
It was also after a few phone conversations that Lao Zhang seemed to want to get the contact information of the boss of the scrap purchase.
Afterwards, Lao Zhang called directly.
The call was connected not long after, and Lao Zhang communicated with him directly: "Then what? Is it Lao Xu? Are you the Lao Xu who bought waste from Hushan Town?"
After a pause, Lao Zhang glanced at Gu Chen and the others, and then explained to the phone:
"Then what? Where are you now? Hushan Town, okay, come over here quickly, we are in your waste collection department now, um, right now."
"Who am I? I am Lao Zhang, the chief of the Hushan Town Police Station. Yes, come here now, hurry up."
After a short stay, Lao Zhang moved the phone away, looked at the phone and it showed that it was hung up, then put it in his trouser pocket, and walked directly to Gu Chen:
"Gu Ju, I've already found him for you, don't worry, I think this must be a misunderstanding."
"Old Xu who buys scraps, I know him too well. He is an honest man, so he should not have anything to do with this Hu Peng."
"In addition, Hu Peng doesn't seem to have any direct relationship with him."
"Understood." Seeing Lao Zhang talking endlessly here, Gu Chen also stretched out his hand to interrupt:
"The current situation is, does Lao Xu, the owner of the scrap purchase, have anything to do with this Hu Peng? Well, when Lao Xu comes over, we will find out by asking."
"Then... that's fine." Originally, he wanted to play the role of the know-it-all in Hushan Town in front of Gu Chen.
But now, it seems that after the supermarket boss lied, his image has collapsed.
Several people waited for a short time at the scene, only to see an old man riding an electric tricycle, which was loading a pile of folded cardboard boxes, slowly driving towards the gate.
Parked the tricycle firmly in front of the crowd, the white-haired old Xu pulled up the handbrake, walked up to the crowd, and asked:
"You guys are looking for me?"
"That's right." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and then revealed his identity: "We are the police, and we are investigating a case. One of the suspects recently appeared in Hushan Town, and his car is in your waste collection department. .”
Turning to look at the white car behind him, Gu Chen pointed to the car and explained, "It's that car, what's the situation with that car?"
"Oh, that car you were talking about?" Hearing that Gu Chen mentioned it, the white-haired old Xu quickly explained:
"It's just a person who parked his car in my scrap collection department and said he paid the parking fee himself."
"I said, why don't you park somewhere else? Why park in my yard? After all, there are still some waste products I bought in my yard."
"It's going to be bumpy, it's not good to scratch his car, but he said it's okay, he paid me two hundred yuan directly, and then said he was in a hurry, and left in a hurry."
"Two hundred yuan for parking?" When hearing this figure, Officer Xiaoxuan stepped forward and reminded:
"I said, Old Xu, didn't you feel something was wrong at that time?"
"You mean it's wrong for this person to pay two hundred yuan for parking?" White-haired old Xu asked.
Officer Xiaoxuan nodded silently: "That's right, I paid you two hundred yuan for parking. This kind of person behaves very abnormally. Haven't you ever thought about going to the police station in Hushan Town to call the police?"
"Hehe." Hearing Officer Xiaoxuan's explanation, the white-haired old Xu also laughed and said: "I said, comrade policewoman, how much you pay for parking a car is her freedom."
"Besides, there are many rich people now, and some people like to spend money lavishly."
"Two hundred parking fees may be a large number in our Hushan Town, but in urban areas, especially in some commercial plazas, it may cost hundreds of dollars if people give a tip casually."
"I've also been to big cities, and I've seen people who spend a lot of money, so I don't think it's weird."
After a pause, the white-haired old Xu continued to explain: "In addition, he may be here for business in Hushan Town, and he doesn't want to meet acquaintances."
"I've seen quite a few people like this, so it doesn't feel very strange."
"Okay." Seeing that the white-haired old Xu was talking in a different way, Gu Chen didn't want to argue with him, so he directly took out Hu Peng's photo and said, "Is it him?"
