Chapter 2299

"Alone? Is he the only one living in the room?" Hearing what the middle-aged fat woman said, Gu Chen couldn't help becoming alert.
The fat woman also replied affirmatively: "Yes, the tenant said before that he came here to look for a job, so let's rent it for a short period of time."
"Then how long is he renting?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked.
"One month." The fat woman held out a finger.
Officer Li quickly asked, "Did you sign the contract? Also, you need identity registration to rent a house here."
"There are all those." After Officer Li's voice fell, the middle-aged fat woman turned back directly.
Not long after, she found the rental contract from a file bag, handed it to Gu Chen and said:
"This is a rental contract with his ID card registration information on it."
"Zhao Guohua?" Gu Chen looked at the tenant's name, frowned slightly, then handed the document to Officer Li and said:
"Senior Brother Li, please help investigate the authenticity of this Zhao Guozhi's identity information."
"Well, leave this to me." After accepting the rental contract, Officer Li took out his mobile phone, took a picture of the information, and then sent it to his colleagues to help them investigate.
On the other side, Gu Chen also reminded, "Do you have a spare key for the room he rents?"
"Yes." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, the middle-aged woman took out the key, stepped forward and said, "I'll open the door for you."
When everyone heard the words, they also followed closely.
Not long after, as the middle-aged woman opened the door, everyone immediately put on protective equipment and entered the house for search operations.
Gu Chen first checked the trash can in the living room, and Gu Chen found a very interesting problem, that is, there was no garbage in the trash can, which made Gu Chen very puzzled.
It stands to reason that if you live in a room, you will generate garbage anyway, but there is no such thing here.
Of course, Gu Chen can also understand it in this way. The suspect Zhao Guohua had already thrown out the garbage once when he went out.
So Gu Chen came to the bedroom again and searched the bedroom.
Since this is a two-bedroom house, the area is not too big, but the same is true for the bedroom, there is no garbage in the trash can.
Not only that, but Gu Chen couldn't even see any traces of people living here.
All items are neatly arranged, even the bed is clean, and the thin blanket is thrown aside and folded neatly.
"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei walked to Gu Chen's side, and also reminded, "This room looks weird, and there is no sign of people living there."
"That's right, it seems that Senior Sister Lu also sees the problem." Seeing that Lu Weiwei went with him, Gu Chen also reminded:
"This place doesn't seem to be where Zhao Guohua used to live, but a place to rest."
"And, judging from the furnishings in the room, he shouldn't have left too many traces of himself."
"Then, this Zhao Guohua should be quite defensive?" Lu Weiwei said.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "It can be understood in this way, and judging from the contract, this Zhao Guozhi has just rented this room for less than a week."
"But within this week, he didn't leave any trace of living in the room. Obviously, this is not normal."
"Hmm." Listening to Gu Chen's analysis, Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and said in thought:
"This Zhao Guozhi, no matter what, feels like he has other plans. He stabbed Uncle Zhang in the nearby abandoned factory building less than a week after renting the house."
"And judging from the action, it's all a deadly move. It feels like that guy wanted to set up an ambush here."
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei denied herself again: "That's not right. If the suspect wants to set up an ambush to deal with Uncle Zhang, then how can he conclude that Uncle Zhang will patrol here? In terms of timing, he can do it." Is it so perfect? ​​Shouldn't it?"
Hearing Lu Weiwei's analysis, Gu Chen subconsciously glanced at Police Officer Li, and asked curiously, "Brother Li by the way."
"Ah? What's the matter?" Officer Li, who was still checking the room, turned around quickly when he heard Gu Chen's call.
"Uncle Zhang patrolled here today, is there any rule?" Gu Chen said.
"Rules? I don't quite understand." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Police Officer Li couldn't help shaking his head.
Gu Chen crossed his arms and continued to explain: "For example, you and Uncle Zhang, have you often patrolled this area in recent days?"
"Uh... Hearing what you said, it seems that this is the case."
"What's going on?" Hearing what Police Officer Li said, Lu Weiwei seemed to feel that there was something else hidden in it?
Officer Li also quickly explained: "For a few days, master and I are indeed in charge of patrolling this jurisdiction."
"Anyway, it's almost noon when I transfer here every day. Anyway, every time it's this place, the master will let me go to the supermarket to buy something out of habit."
"Sometimes it's water, sometimes it's bread. Anyway, I buy some and put it in the car. When I'm hungry, I fill my stomach. It's a habit these days."
"Approximately how long did it last?" Hearing this, Gu Chen frowned slightly.
"Probably... a week?" Officer Li said after thinking.
"No." Gu Chen shook his head, as if realizing something, he raised his head and said:
"You and Uncle Zhang have patrolled the neighborhood for a week, and every time it's almost noon, you will stop at the entrance of that supermarket, and then you go to the supermarket to buy something."
"This scenario seems to be exactly the same as what happened today."
"And I've seen the rental contract named Zhao Guohua, and it's been less than a week."
"In this way, people may have discovered the rules of your patrols, so they rented the house here, and then investigated the surrounding terrain, and finally chose this abandoned factory."
"In fact, his goal is very clear, maybe he is here for Uncle Zhang."
"My God!" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei, who hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem before, couldn't help but exclaim, and said:
"Then, this Zhao Guohua is actually here for Uncle Zhang, and the other party has figured out your patrol rules."
"Even deliberately leading Uncle Zhang to follow him, and then came to the abandoned factory, seems to be a bureau?"
Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but gasped, and also said in a bad mood: "Then, it's very likely that he came prepared."
"No way? It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Hearing Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei's explanation, Officer Li couldn't help but feel a little bit of a shock at this moment.
It was just an unexpected incident before, but now, under the analysis of Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, it seems that the situation is much more complicated than I imagined.
Officer Li rubbed his face with his hands to calm himself down as soon as possible, and said slowly, "Let me think about it, what is going on?"
While everyone was waiting for the result of Officer Li's thinking, a phone call was made directly to Officer Li's cell phone.
Officer Li didn't care too much. He took out his mobile phone and swiped the answer button: "Hello? What? The identity is fake, are you sure? Well, I get it."
After hanging up the phone, Police Officer Li also looked at Gu Chen with a horrified expression, and explained: "My colleague has already verified that this guy named 'Zhao Guohua' has a forged ID card."
"That's a false identity." This is the same as Gu Chen guessed before, and he sighed and said:
"In that case, this person named Zhao Guohua may have planned it long ago, and the target is very likely to be Uncle Zhang."
"Including his understanding of your patrol rules and time, and even renting a house nearby, perhaps to provide convenience for his own actions."
With a faint sigh, Gu Chen said again: "From this point of view, Uncle Zhang seems to have something very important to him, or some secret."
"So, they have to do something to Uncle Zhang."
After the words fell, Gu Chen looked at Officer Li again, and continued to ask:
"Brother Li, you said that Uncle Zhang and you have been investigating the case of financial fraud against Sangji recently. Are you sure you have any important evidence in your hands?"
"No." When Gu Chen looked at him anxiously, Police Officer Li also said with a puzzled expression:
"We are only assisting in the investigation of Sanji's case, and to this day, we don't have much information about Sanji."
After a pause, Officer Li said again: "Yes, we have no relevant evidence."
"Could it be that Uncle Zhang knew it, but didn't have time to tell you?" Gu Chen also offered another possibility.
But Officer Li denied it flatly: "No, I work and patrol with my master every day. If he has some important clues, he will definitely provide them and will not not tell me."
"That's weird." Listening to Officer Li's explanation, Lu Weiwei who was on the side also said in puzzlement:
"If that's the case, then why did that guy target Uncle Zhang so much?"
"No." After walking back and forth twice, Gu Chen continued:
"We must find out, what happened to Uncle Zhang during this time?"
"If calculated according to the time, the other party obviously had their eyes on Uncle Zhang before renting the house, and then decided to start this move."
"That's why the other party rented a house nearby and waited for the opportunity."
"As for this kind of timing, the other party may have prepared several times, but today is just right to guide Uncle Zhang out alone and into the trap set by the other party."
"I think that the other party has spent so much money, it must have something to do with Uncle Zhang grasping some important clues about them, so they want to kill Uncle Zhang."
"No... no way?" Listening to Gu Chen's analysis, Officer Li felt more and more that all this seemed too weird.
But Gu Chen said firmly: "Brother Li, from now on, we must figure out what's going on with Uncle Zhang this week?"
"Especially during the period before the other party rents a house, this is an important time point."
"If you want to figure out why that guy wanted to assassinate Uncle Zhang, then you have to figure out the many situations before this, and you can't miss anything."
After thinking for a while, Gu Chen said again: "Also, the monitoring of the nearby streets must be checked more. Compared with this guy, he has also seen the distribution of monitoring, but there should be mistakes."
"As long as some clues can be captured in the monitoring screen, then reverse tracking can be carried out. I think we can definitely find that guy."
"Okay, I'll do my best." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Police Officer Li could only agree.
Later, Officer Li even took out his notebook and began to record some important clues.
Among them are those things that Gu Chen explained.
Because from Gu Chen's point of view, this incident of assaulting the police seems to be far from that simple, and there must be other circumstances involved.
It's just that Zhang Jingde is seriously injured and hospitalized now, if he wants to ask something from him, I'm afraid it won't be possible for a while.
Police Officer Li, as Zhang Jingde's apprentice, was also Zhang Jingde's partner during work, so he should be the most clear about Zhang Jingde's daily situation.
But the problem now is that even Police Officer Li doesn't know how Zhang Jingde offended Zhao Guohua?
Therefore, Police Officer Li needs to return to the unit and conduct a detailed investigation of the work done a week ago.
Since there were only some footprints at the scene, Gu Chen concluded that the other party might have just stayed in the room, but he hadn't used anything in the room.
Even fingerprints may not be left behind, so the evidence collection of footprints seems to be very precious.
Seeing that the brother unit had completed the evidence collection work, Gu Chen also patted Lu Weiwei on the shoulder, motioning to leave the scene.
Walking outside the rental house, Lu Weiwei also asked Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, don't you feel that? Did Uncle Zhang hide something from Police Officer Li?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen looked back at Police Officer Li who was still in the room dealing with work, nodded silently at Lu Weiwei, and whispered:
"Uncle Zhang may have something that he doesn't want Officer Li to know, so Officer Li doesn't know why the other party wants to assassinate Uncle Zhang."
"I think the problem may be before renting a house. We don't have evidence for this yet. It can only be said to be conjecture."
"However, the specific situation still needs to be investigated by the High-tech Sub-bureau as a basis. Maybe they will gain something, but I have an ominous premonition."
"What ominous premonition?" Looking at Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei also looked curious.
Gu Chen also sighed, and said helplessly, "Uncle Zhang has a habit of keeping dangerous things to himself. All the apprentices he has taught know it very well."
"Brother Li is his newest apprentice, and in terms of experience, he is obviously not as good as the others."
"Uncle Zhang brings him by his side. On the one hand, he is imparting experience. On the other hand, he will definitely not be allowed to participate in many dangerous actions."
After a pause, Gu Chen said again: "However, this time, I think Uncle Zhang still has something to hide from us. To be precise, he is hiding from Officer Li and other people in the unit."
