I am a super cop
Chapter 2394 Missing Persons [2 in 1 Chapter]
He Junchao agreed with Gu Chen's idea and responded: "Gu Chen, do as you say. You can contact the relevant colleagues from the High-tech Branch here and ask them to pay attention to the situation at night."
"According to my investigation, this guy has been committing crimes here for many days in a row."
"Moreover, people not only come here to commit crimes at night, but also during the day."
"What?" Lu Weiwei heard what He Junchao said and said in disbelief: "He Junchao, are you mistaken?"
"You said you went to the wooden house to steal money at night and secretly made pancakes yourself. I believe this. But during the day, the boss is here, how can he steal things?"
"Harm! Just listen to what I have to say." Feeling that Lu Weiwei was also impatient, He Junchao simply explained:
"That's for sure, stealing things at night, but this guy also comes to this stall during the day, and he comes here to buy pancakes."
"What?" Hearing what He Junchao said, Lu Weiwei was dumbfounded again and quickly replied:
"You said he comes to the stall to buy pancakes during the day? Is there something wrong with this person?"
"I feel it too." He Junchao laughed dryly and said a little speechlessly:
"I really don't understand this guy. He is obviously a thief, but he is obsessed with making pancakes."
"According to my observation on the surveillance camera, this thief who comes here to buy pancakes during the day is actually secretly learning the skills of making pancakes."
"Because I saw him entering the boardroom and secretly making pancakes. It didn't seem very familiar to him."
"But in the next few days, he came every day and just watched the boss making pancakes."
After a pause, He Junchao added: "After all, think about it, people are lurking in the boardroom every day, and they know the boss's ingredients and sauces clearly."
"But I'm not very familiar with the production process, so I guess people just come here to learn from me."
"Haha, you are still humbly studying. Is this guy really addicted to secretly studying?" Hearing this answer, Lu Weiwei's three views were subverted.
I feel that there is indeed something wrong with this thief. Not only is there something wrong with him, he is also very diligent and studious.
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen and said, "Junior Brother Gu, do you think that after this thief learns the making process, will he go to a certain place to set up a pancake stall?"
"Most likely not?" Gu Chen shook his head.
"How do you say this?" Lu Weiwei's expression was blank, and she didn't understand.
So Gu Chen hurriedly added: "Didn't Senior Sister Lu listen to what the couple said? The sauces are all prepared by them at home, and they are secret sauces."
"Although the thief would hide in their wooden house and make pancakes every night while the couple was closing the stall and returning home."
"But after all, the raw materials are ready-made, and the sauce is also ready-made. He just needs to bring it and use it."
"But if you really have to make the sauce yourself, I estimate that there is a high probability that you won't be able to make it."
"That's right." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei also felt that this was true.
At this moment, He Junchao on the other end of the phone quickly asked: "Is there anything else you can do?"
"No, thank you, Senior Brother He." Gu Chen smiled slightly and quickly thanked him.
"It's nothing. It's just the things that the High-tech Branch should take care of from now on. You'd better stop taking care of it. Isn't it just tormenting people every day?"
"You Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei are on vacation, and I have to work for your vacation. Haha, maybe I was really a tool in my previous life."
"Okay, I asked you to do something, so why don't I see you so negative when you were nagging me and stealing my snacks?" Lu Weiwei had her own way of saying things to ridicule people.
The two of them also started to joke around, and then they both hung up the phone.
Taking back her phone, Lu Weiwei also looked at Gu Chen and said, "By the way, Junior Brother Gu, do you want to contact your colleagues at the High-tech Branch?"
"Isn't this ready-made?" As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen saw two men in police uniforms walking slowly towards him side by side, as if they were on patrol.
"It's true." Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also grinned, stood up quickly, and stopped in front of the two police officers.
"Hello." Just as Lu Weiwei was about to speak, one of the trainee police officers stretched out his hand and said, "Aren't you a police beauty from Furong Branch?"
"Do you know me?" Lu Weiwei was just about to introduce herself, but now it's okay, she knows you directly, and you are still a trainee police officer.
Lu Weiwei suddenly felt happy, feeling that the trainee policeman's eyesight was quite good.
The trainee policeman smiled at Lu Weiwei and said: "You should be Lu Weiwei from Furong Branch. I know you. All the colleagues in our unit regard you as the lover of their dreams, including my senior brother."
As soon as the trainee police officer finished speaking, the second-level superintendent on the side immediately slapped the trainee police officer on the head: "What did you say?"
"Ouch." The trainee police officer said "Ouch" and retorted: "That's right! You also said that if you can marry a police beauty like Lu Weiwei in this life, you will really die without regrets."
"Ahem, I didn't say that. Don't you want to process it yourself? Who doesn't know that Gu Chen from Furong Branch is the police officer of Furong Branch and the face of Furong Branch."
"Everyone knows that where there is Lu Weiwei, there must be Gu Chen. The two of them are..."
Before he finished speaking, what did the second-level superintendent suddenly think of?So I quickly looked around.
However, when he looked to the left, Gu Chen was sitting on a public seat, waving to him awkwardly.
"Gu...Gu Bureau?" Seeing that Gu Chen was here, the second-level police superintendent instantly died and felt like he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Gu Chen also stood up directly and came to the two police officers.
"Are you Gu Chen?" The trainee police officer obviously just joined the police force not long ago. Looking at the handsome and handsome Gu Chen, he suddenly smiled and said:
"When I see you, I know that my senior brother will never get Lu Weiwei in this life. Oops!"
As soon as the trainee police officer finished speaking, he immediately started rubbing his toes.
Apparently, the Superintendent II gave him a kick as a reminder.
Lu Weiwei, who was standing aside, saw all this and covered her mouth and snickered.
The second-level superintendent, whose head was full of black marks, also educated the trainee police officers: "Gu Chen is the deputy director of Furong Branch. Don't be so insignificant in front of the leaders."
Looking back at Gu Chen, the second-level superintendent suddenly changed his face and smiled at Gu Chen:
"Gu Ju, everyone knows that you and Lu Weiwei are a perfect match, so everyone will usually use you as role models and occasionally tease us, so don't mind."
"It's okay." Gu Chen also smiled slightly. Isn't it normal for Lu Weiwei to be discussed?
When I first joined the Furong branch police force, the most discussed policewoman in the entire branch was Lu Weiwei.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei has always been the dream lover of all police officers. This is an open secret.
Gu Chen had just started working and didn't know the specific situation, especially since Lu Weiwei was too close to him, and many male police officers even regarded him as an imaginary love rival, which made Gu Chen a little confused.
Therefore, it was not surprising at all that Gu Chen was teasing the second-level superintendent and the trainee police officer. Excellent people shine wherever they go, and Lu Weiwei is like this.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense now, but I like to hear what you are saying." Lu Weiwei was happy, but she still had to pretend to be reserved.
The second-level superintendent grinned, nodded silently, and said jokingly: "It must be true. By the way, Director Gu's family is in the community here. Could it be that he is back from vacation this time?"
"Yes, come and see my Uncle Zhang by the way." Gu Chen said.
"Oh, you're talking about Officer Zhang Jingde and Zhang? Indeed, I heard that Officer Zhang was just discharged from the hospital yesterday and is still recuperating at home. Our colleagues also said that we would go over to see Officer Zhang during our vacation."
After a pause, the second-level superintendent quickly added: "So, Director Gu is here to buy something to take with you?"
"My family owns a supermarket, so we don't lack anything." When asked by the second-level superintendent, Gu Chen also grinned.
The second-level superintendent immediately slapped his head and said with a self-reproaching look on his face: "Look at me, I'm so out of my mind that I've even forgotten what the Gu Bureau family does."
"Like my uncle and aunt's supermarket, I still go there often, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the second-level superintendent touched the trainee policeman next to him.
"Oh." No matter how stunned the trainee police officer was, he still had some sharp eyesight. He immediately agreed and said quickly:
"We often go to Gu Bureau's supermarket to buy things, and we are very familiar with our uncle and aunt."
After thinking about it, the trainee police officer quickly asked: "Oh, by the way, Senior Sister Lu stopped us just now. Could it be that she was looking for our help?"
"That's right." Seeing that everyone had been chatting for a long time, she had forgotten the main thing, so Lu Weiwei quickly turned around and pointed to the pancake stall in line and said:
"That pancake stand..."
"Oh, that pancake stall is doing very well." Before Lu Weiwei could finish her words, the trainee police officer quickly interjected.
Lu Weiwei shook her head: "That's not what I'm talking about."
"Isn't it this?" The trainee policeman's eyes were blank, a little confused.
The second-level superintendent on the side patted the trainee police officer on the head again and said angrily: "Let me finish my sentence."
"Oh." The trainee policeman holding his head also had a bitter look on his face.
Lu Weiwei also grinned, and then quickly explained:
"The thing is like this, the owner of this pancake stall reported to us that he always felt like someone had been in their wooden house at night."
"Moreover, because they are busy with business, they often leave some change in the cabin."
"But every time I come here the next day, I always feel like I have a lot less change, but I don't know what's wrong?"
"Anyway, I just feel like there's been a thief in the store."
"There was a thief in the store?" After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, the second-level superintendent also asked curiously: "Then there was a thief in the store. The lock must have been broken, right?"
"The lock has not been broken." Lu Weiwei shook her head and said truthfully: "The lock has not been broken."
"However, the lock was indeed picked, and..."
Halfway through her words, Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen beside her.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, looked at the eagle-eye aerial camera high up and reminded:
"Did you see that camera up there?"
"I saw it. It seems to be a high-altitude eagle eye camera." The second-level superintendent on the side said.
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently and said truthfully: "I just applied for permission to use the high-altitude eagle eye camera through my colleagues in the office."
"And this high-altitude eagle eye camera happened to be able to capture the location of the board house, so we searched for what happened in the board house during this period after the couple closed the door and went home."
"Then... what happened then? After hearing what Gu Chen said, the trainee policeman also asked out of curiosity."
Gu Chen said slowly: "We found that during this period, whenever night falls, after the boss and his wife pack their things and go home, there is always a dark figure running into the boardroom."
"Use your lock-picking skills to pick the door lock, and then enter the board house to commit theft."
"Is that so?" After hearing what Gu Chen said, the second-level superintendent looked around for a few seconds, then nodded and said:
"That's right, this is a surveillance blind spot, and ordinary cameras can't capture it here."
Looking up at the high-altitude eagle-eye camera at the top of the mall, the second-level superintendent said: "Only this high-altitude eagle-eye camera can capture it."
After a pause, the second-level superintendent asked Gu Chen: "Well, Director Gu, what did you see in the high-altitude eagle eye camera?"
"I saw this guy stealing change, but this guy is quite cunning. He only steals a little bit at a time, so it's not easy for the couple to detect him."
"Even later, this guy might have been hungry, so he made pancakes directly in the cabin."
"What?!"
Upon hearing what Gu Chen said, the second-level superintendent and the trainee police officer were stunned on the spot. They were both stunned at the same time.
The trainee police officer also said in disbelief: "This...this guy not only stole change, but also made pancakes by himself?"
"Is this guy really doing this?" asked the second-level superintendent on the side.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei nodded at the same time.
"My dear." The second-level superintendent slapped his forehead and said in disbelief: "Is this guy stupid?"
"Not only that, they are quite diligent. Not only do they come here every night to steal money, but they also make pancakes here."
"In the first few days, I might be a little unfamiliar with making pancakes, so I started making pancakes very slowly."
"But this guy didn't give up. He came here to queue up again during the day and watched the boss lady making pancakes at such a close distance."
"I came here at night and during the day, and immediately learned the process of making pancakes. So in the next few days, this little thief made pancakes very smoothly in the family's wooden house."
Lu Weiwei also shared the situation that He Junchao told her in detail.
When the trainee police officer and the second-level superintendent heard this, they also looked at each other. After being stunned for a few seconds, they suddenly burst into laughter.
They were also a trainee police officer and a second-level superintendent. They covered their stomachs and mouths and laughed wildly. Lu Weiwei couldn't help but join in and said:
"Don't laugh, all of you. At first, I had the same reaction as you. I was also made to cry by this thief. I thought this was too weird."
"Isn't that right? Haha, my stomach hurts from laughing so much." The trainee policeman complained while holding his stomach.
The second-level superintendent on the side covered his stomach with his left hand and waved his right hand:
"I can't help it, I can't help it anymore. I really can't bear to laugh anymore. Do you still feel this weird?"
Shaking his head, the second-level superintendent said helplessly: "In the end, is this guy still so persistent?" "Yes." As soon as the second-level superintendent finished speaking, Lu Weiwei nodded and confirmed:
"According to the information sent by my colleague, it is true that this thief still comes here every night to practice making pancakes and steal some change along the way."
"Let's just say, the couple at this pancake stall said that they seem to have a lot less change, but it's not too much."
"After all, it's just change, but I feel that the amount may not be large, and I'm also afraid that our police won't accept the case."
"So I've been very confused. Just now, Junior Brother Gu and I were buying pancakes here, and they recognized me, so we had a little chat."
Glancing at Gu Chen beside her, Lu Weiwei added: "So my junior brother Gu directly asked one of our colleagues to apply for high-altitude eagle eye permission, and that's when he discovered this weird guy."
"As expected, the Phantom Thief Kid specializes in stealing diamonds, but this thief specializes in stealing change and secretly making pancakes."
The second-level superintendent shook his head and said helplessly: "I really can't tell, this guy should be called the Pancake Phantom Thief, right?"
"Pancake thief?" Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment after hearing the nickname chosen by the second-level superintendent, then covered her mouth and snickered:
"Pancake Thief? What a name. I like it."
"Now it's not a question of whether you like it or not, but a question of how to catch this pancake thief." Seeing that everyone was chatting, Gu Chen simply threw the question out.
The second-level superintendent patted his chest and assured Gu Chen: "Gu Bureau, don't worry about this. I'll tell the leader when I get back. I'll stay around here tonight and I'll definitely help you catch this pancake thief. "
"That's good." Seeing that things were done, Gu Chen felt happy.
Lu Weiwei joked from the side: "After you catch this pancake thief, remember to ask him what he thought at the time?"
"I also want to know, does this guy really like making pancakes? Or is he just trying to steal money and make pancakes to fill his stomach?"
"Haha, that's for sure. We will definitely catch this pancake thief and find out about this matter." The trainee police officer also quickly agreed.
I feel that such strange characters are indeed rare.
After everyone exchanged a few simple greetings at the scene, Gu Chen also asked Lu Weiwei to show the video of the thief sent by He Junchao to two colleagues, so that the two colleagues could use the surveillance screenshots as a reference.
Then the pancake monster thief can be captured in one fell swoop late at night.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were going to Zhang Jingde's house to see Zhang Jingde's injury.
……
……
A week later.
Gu Chen paused the documents on his desk and looked down at his watch.
It was 7 o'clock in the evening. Since Gu Chen had to take a break the next day, he was going to ask Lu Weiwei if he would go to his house for dinner?
Since the recent work has not been too busy, and when Xiao Yang went to Southeast Asia and the Philippines, his work was basically over.
Therefore, commendation meetings have been held recently, and the entire Furong Branch is also active in this atmosphere of honor.
"Junior Brother Gu." After finishing the work in hand, Lu Weiwei turned to look at Gu Chen behind her, and quickly asked: "Junior Brother Gu, I will also take the day off tomorrow. Can I go to your house for dinner?"
"I was just about to say this, and I wanted to ask you." Gu Chen also said with a smile.
I originally wanted to ask Lu Weiwei for her opinion, but usually Lu Weiwei would agree.
But Lu Weiwei asked herself directly that it was novel to go to her own home for dinner.
Of course, who told it to be Lu Weiwei?The Gu Chen family has long regarded Lu Weiwei as one of their own.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei got along quite harmoniously with Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang, as if they were really a family.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei had a lot of topics to talk about, and there seemed to be endless topics to talk about with Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang, making the two of them laugh non-stop.
Gu Chen thought, that's fine. Every time he goes home, the atmosphere is not so lively.
It can be said that Lu Weiwei's arrival has added a lot of joy and laughter to the family.
"Then it's settled." Lu Weiwei paused the documents on the table, put them in a folder aside, and then said:
"Then you can have a good rest tonight and start early tomorrow."
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently, then stood up.
In the office, there are several new police officers working the night shift.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other and walked out of the office side by side.
……
……
The next day, 10 am.
Gu Chen had already taken Lu Weiwei and drove to the outdoor parking lot of the shopping mall opposite the community.
"Let's buy some pancakes first and take them back to my parents to try. I guess they have never tasted such delicious pancakes."
While Gu Chen was speaking, he had already pulled the handbrake.
Lu Weiwei was also curious and asked: "Uncle and aunt are staying here, won't they come here to try this snack?"
"They don't have such hobbies. They are busy with their own things every day. As for finding delicious food, that is a matter for young people." Gu Chen also smiled teasingly.
"That's right." Lu Weiwei, who got out of the car and closed the door, also grinned and said:
"Let's go by the way to see the couple bosses and see if the High-tech Branch has helped them catch that little thief. Let's call it a return visit."
"Yes." Gu Chen just echoed, thinking in his mind, I don't know if what happened last week has been resolved?
Of course, Gu Chen also believed in the efficiency of his colleagues here. He felt that the evidence was there, and it was only a matter of time before he found someone.
Since it was 10 a.m., many stalls had just opened at this moment.
Many food stall owners are preparing ingredients and cleaning up.
From a distance, Gu Chen saw a few customers standing at the door of the pancake house.
Although there are not many customers in the morning, the queue still highlights the wonder of this pancake stall.
"Hey!" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh when she saw this scene: "This morning, people started queuing up to do business. I really don't know how much money this couple makes in a year?"
"It must be very profitable." Gu Chen also smiled and said casually.
Afterwards, the two came to the door of the pancake house and took the initiative to line up behind the others.
Since the queue was not very long, Gu Chen didn't have to wait too long.
But at this moment, Gu Chen discovered that the person making pancakes was the boss, not the wife.
I thought maybe the business was not so busy in the morning, so the boss could come here alone.
But when Gu Chen saw the boss making pancakes, his movements were much slower than his wife's, and the pace was not too fast either.
In addition, there is no helper, so all processes need to be operated by yourself.
So the movements back and forth were a bit ridiculously slow.
"Boss, here are four pancakes, add this, this, and this." Lu Weiwei still ordered four pancakes according to her own taste.
"Okay." The boss took a deep breath and then started to prepare the ingredients again.
Gu Chen saw that the boss didn't even look up at the customer, so he reminded him: "By the way, boss, has the thief from last week been caught?"
"Ah?" After hearing what Gu Chen said, the boss, who was a little slow to react, quickly stood up from his crouching position and looked up at Gu Chen in front of him.
When he saw that the people coming were Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, the boss immediately grinned: "Hey? Isn't this Gu Bureau? So it's you guys?"
The boss was also overjoyed to see an acquaintance.
Lu Weiwei quickly asked: "By the way, boss, you haven't told me yet, was the thief last week caught?"
"Caught, caught. I tell you that the day after this incident, this thief was caught by the police here."
“When I found out that this thief was still making pancakes in my cabin every day, I really couldn’t laugh or cry.”
"Moreover, I heard that this guy not only comes to my pancake stall at night, but also during the day. He also buys pancakes from me and watches the making process of my pancakes."
After saying this, the boss also took a deep breath and said helplessly:
"To be honest, this is the first time I have encountered this situation in my life. The police here call him the 'Pancake Thief'. It really makes me laugh to death."
"Just catch it." Gu Chen finally felt relieved after listening to the boss's story, so Gu Chen quickly said again:
"Oh, by the way, now that you've caught that thief, have you calculated how much money you've lost in total?"
"It's been counted." The boss replied to Gu Chen while preparing the ingredients:
"That thief came to my stall nine times in total, and he was caught red-handed on the ninth time."
"Anyway, adding up the first eight times, he stole a total of more than 700 yuan of change from my cabin, right?"
"How much?" when hearing that number?Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh:
"He came to your place 9 times and stole more than 700 yuan in total? For more than 700 yuan, he had to pick the lock every time."
"When you get in, you have to make pancakes for yourself, and then you have to clean the counter."
"Then lock it again and act like nothing happened."
Speaking of this, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh and shook her head: "I really can't see that this guy is really good enough."
"Yeah, I can't believe it. Every time I come here, I steal less than 100 yuan. I really don't know what he thinks?" Listening to Lu Weiwei's complaints, the boss couldn't help but say.
Gu Chen quickly asked: "After the police caught him, did they find out what he was thinking? Also, what did he steal the money for?"
"I told you." As he spoke, the boss had already started making pancakes and replied:
"I heard from the police comrades that that guy originally liked to surf the Internet nearby, but he didn't have a serious job, so he thought of going to a nearby food court to steal some change to surf the Internet."
"It turned out that I kept a lot of change in my cabin, so I started to have evil intentions."
With a faint sigh, the boss added: "But later, maybe this guy suddenly felt hungry, and then, seeing that I had ready-made tools and ingredients here, he thought, how about making some pancakes?"
"So, the result is that this guy is getting more and more motivated."
"At first, he was a little unsuccessful and his movements were slow. Later, this guy thought that he would pass by here often anyway, so he simply came to my place during the day to observe my production process in the name of buying pancakes. .”
After waving his hand, the boss shook his head helplessly: "So, this guy finally understood the process of making pancakes in 9 days."
"If it weren't for the secret sauce, which my wife and I made at home, I guess this guy would have learned all the steps and key techniques."
"Maybe, he really wants to open a pancake stall somewhere else."
"Is that considered your apprentice who has gone out here?" Lu Weiwei said jokingly, suppressing her laughter.
"Harm!" The boss waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Let's forget about this kind of apprentice. Anyway, we are at ease after being caught, so we don't have to be suspicious every day."
"It's just that this thief is too weird. He only steals from my family every time he steals things, and he doesn't bring such a heap of wool?"
"That's right." Lu Weiwei nodded with a suppressed smile and said jokingly:
"Who told you that your pancake stall is doing well? I guess they care about this."
After Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen looked left and right, then looked at the pancake boss and asked curiously:
"Oh, by the way, where is the boss lady? Don't you two usually do business together?"
"My wife..."
Halfway through his words, the pancake owner was stunned for a moment and seemed unable to continue.
Gu Chen, who saw the problem, quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
"I...my wife has been missing for a few days." The pancake owner lowered his head and said.
"Missing? How many days have you been missing?" Listening to what the pancake boss said, Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, feeling a little unbelievable, so she quickly asked the boss again:
"By the way, what's going on? The boss lady was fine, why did she disappear?"
"Besides, if I've been missing for a few days, why don't you go look for me? What if something happens?"
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei seemed to realize something?So he pointed at the boss and quickly asked:
"It couldn't be that...you two had a quarrel, right?"
"Yes, there was a quarrel." Faced with Lu Weiwei's question, the pancake owner quickly agreed.
"Harm!" Feeling that she might have made a fuss, Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly:
"So it turned out that the two couples were quarreling and having conflicts? But even if they were quarreling and having conflicts, they wouldn't run away from home, right? How many more days would they lose contact?"
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei asked the pancake owner again: "But, haven't you contacted your wife in the past few days?"
"I can't get in touch, and I can't get through on my cell phone either," the pancake owner said.
... (end of this chapter)
"According to my investigation, this guy has been committing crimes here for many days in a row."
"Moreover, people not only come here to commit crimes at night, but also during the day."
"What?" Lu Weiwei heard what He Junchao said and said in disbelief: "He Junchao, are you mistaken?"
"You said you went to the wooden house to steal money at night and secretly made pancakes yourself. I believe this. But during the day, the boss is here, how can he steal things?"
"Harm! Just listen to what I have to say." Feeling that Lu Weiwei was also impatient, He Junchao simply explained:
"That's for sure, stealing things at night, but this guy also comes to this stall during the day, and he comes here to buy pancakes."
"What?" Hearing what He Junchao said, Lu Weiwei was dumbfounded again and quickly replied:
"You said he comes to the stall to buy pancakes during the day? Is there something wrong with this person?"
"I feel it too." He Junchao laughed dryly and said a little speechlessly:
"I really don't understand this guy. He is obviously a thief, but he is obsessed with making pancakes."
"According to my observation on the surveillance camera, this thief who comes here to buy pancakes during the day is actually secretly learning the skills of making pancakes."
"Because I saw him entering the boardroom and secretly making pancakes. It didn't seem very familiar to him."
"But in the next few days, he came every day and just watched the boss making pancakes."
After a pause, He Junchao added: "After all, think about it, people are lurking in the boardroom every day, and they know the boss's ingredients and sauces clearly."
"But I'm not very familiar with the production process, so I guess people just come here to learn from me."
"Haha, you are still humbly studying. Is this guy really addicted to secretly studying?" Hearing this answer, Lu Weiwei's three views were subverted.
I feel that there is indeed something wrong with this thief. Not only is there something wrong with him, he is also very diligent and studious.
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen and said, "Junior Brother Gu, do you think that after this thief learns the making process, will he go to a certain place to set up a pancake stall?"
"Most likely not?" Gu Chen shook his head.
"How do you say this?" Lu Weiwei's expression was blank, and she didn't understand.
So Gu Chen hurriedly added: "Didn't Senior Sister Lu listen to what the couple said? The sauces are all prepared by them at home, and they are secret sauces."
"Although the thief would hide in their wooden house and make pancakes every night while the couple was closing the stall and returning home."
"But after all, the raw materials are ready-made, and the sauce is also ready-made. He just needs to bring it and use it."
"But if you really have to make the sauce yourself, I estimate that there is a high probability that you won't be able to make it."
"That's right." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei also felt that this was true.
At this moment, He Junchao on the other end of the phone quickly asked: "Is there anything else you can do?"
"No, thank you, Senior Brother He." Gu Chen smiled slightly and quickly thanked him.
"It's nothing. It's just the things that the High-tech Branch should take care of from now on. You'd better stop taking care of it. Isn't it just tormenting people every day?"
"You Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei are on vacation, and I have to work for your vacation. Haha, maybe I was really a tool in my previous life."
"Okay, I asked you to do something, so why don't I see you so negative when you were nagging me and stealing my snacks?" Lu Weiwei had her own way of saying things to ridicule people.
The two of them also started to joke around, and then they both hung up the phone.
Taking back her phone, Lu Weiwei also looked at Gu Chen and said, "By the way, Junior Brother Gu, do you want to contact your colleagues at the High-tech Branch?"
"Isn't this ready-made?" As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen saw two men in police uniforms walking slowly towards him side by side, as if they were on patrol.
"It's true." Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also grinned, stood up quickly, and stopped in front of the two police officers.
"Hello." Just as Lu Weiwei was about to speak, one of the trainee police officers stretched out his hand and said, "Aren't you a police beauty from Furong Branch?"
"Do you know me?" Lu Weiwei was just about to introduce herself, but now it's okay, she knows you directly, and you are still a trainee police officer.
Lu Weiwei suddenly felt happy, feeling that the trainee policeman's eyesight was quite good.
The trainee policeman smiled at Lu Weiwei and said: "You should be Lu Weiwei from Furong Branch. I know you. All the colleagues in our unit regard you as the lover of their dreams, including my senior brother."
As soon as the trainee police officer finished speaking, the second-level superintendent on the side immediately slapped the trainee police officer on the head: "What did you say?"
"Ouch." The trainee police officer said "Ouch" and retorted: "That's right! You also said that if you can marry a police beauty like Lu Weiwei in this life, you will really die without regrets."
"Ahem, I didn't say that. Don't you want to process it yourself? Who doesn't know that Gu Chen from Furong Branch is the police officer of Furong Branch and the face of Furong Branch."
"Everyone knows that where there is Lu Weiwei, there must be Gu Chen. The two of them are..."
Before he finished speaking, what did the second-level superintendent suddenly think of?So I quickly looked around.
However, when he looked to the left, Gu Chen was sitting on a public seat, waving to him awkwardly.
"Gu...Gu Bureau?" Seeing that Gu Chen was here, the second-level police superintendent instantly died and felt like he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Gu Chen also stood up directly and came to the two police officers.
"Are you Gu Chen?" The trainee police officer obviously just joined the police force not long ago. Looking at the handsome and handsome Gu Chen, he suddenly smiled and said:
"When I see you, I know that my senior brother will never get Lu Weiwei in this life. Oops!"
As soon as the trainee police officer finished speaking, he immediately started rubbing his toes.
Apparently, the Superintendent II gave him a kick as a reminder.
Lu Weiwei, who was standing aside, saw all this and covered her mouth and snickered.
The second-level superintendent, whose head was full of black marks, also educated the trainee police officers: "Gu Chen is the deputy director of Furong Branch. Don't be so insignificant in front of the leaders."
Looking back at Gu Chen, the second-level superintendent suddenly changed his face and smiled at Gu Chen:
"Gu Ju, everyone knows that you and Lu Weiwei are a perfect match, so everyone will usually use you as role models and occasionally tease us, so don't mind."
"It's okay." Gu Chen also smiled slightly. Isn't it normal for Lu Weiwei to be discussed?
When I first joined the Furong branch police force, the most discussed policewoman in the entire branch was Lu Weiwei.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei has always been the dream lover of all police officers. This is an open secret.
Gu Chen had just started working and didn't know the specific situation, especially since Lu Weiwei was too close to him, and many male police officers even regarded him as an imaginary love rival, which made Gu Chen a little confused.
Therefore, it was not surprising at all that Gu Chen was teasing the second-level superintendent and the trainee police officer. Excellent people shine wherever they go, and Lu Weiwei is like this.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense now, but I like to hear what you are saying." Lu Weiwei was happy, but she still had to pretend to be reserved.
The second-level superintendent grinned, nodded silently, and said jokingly: "It must be true. By the way, Director Gu's family is in the community here. Could it be that he is back from vacation this time?"
"Yes, come and see my Uncle Zhang by the way." Gu Chen said.
"Oh, you're talking about Officer Zhang Jingde and Zhang? Indeed, I heard that Officer Zhang was just discharged from the hospital yesterday and is still recuperating at home. Our colleagues also said that we would go over to see Officer Zhang during our vacation."
After a pause, the second-level superintendent quickly added: "So, Director Gu is here to buy something to take with you?"
"My family owns a supermarket, so we don't lack anything." When asked by the second-level superintendent, Gu Chen also grinned.
The second-level superintendent immediately slapped his head and said with a self-reproaching look on his face: "Look at me, I'm so out of my mind that I've even forgotten what the Gu Bureau family does."
"Like my uncle and aunt's supermarket, I still go there often, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the second-level superintendent touched the trainee policeman next to him.
"Oh." No matter how stunned the trainee police officer was, he still had some sharp eyesight. He immediately agreed and said quickly:
"We often go to Gu Bureau's supermarket to buy things, and we are very familiar with our uncle and aunt."
After thinking about it, the trainee police officer quickly asked: "Oh, by the way, Senior Sister Lu stopped us just now. Could it be that she was looking for our help?"
"That's right." Seeing that everyone had been chatting for a long time, she had forgotten the main thing, so Lu Weiwei quickly turned around and pointed to the pancake stall in line and said:
"That pancake stand..."
"Oh, that pancake stall is doing very well." Before Lu Weiwei could finish her words, the trainee police officer quickly interjected.
Lu Weiwei shook her head: "That's not what I'm talking about."
"Isn't it this?" The trainee policeman's eyes were blank, a little confused.
The second-level superintendent on the side patted the trainee police officer on the head again and said angrily: "Let me finish my sentence."
"Oh." The trainee policeman holding his head also had a bitter look on his face.
Lu Weiwei also grinned, and then quickly explained:
"The thing is like this, the owner of this pancake stall reported to us that he always felt like someone had been in their wooden house at night."
"Moreover, because they are busy with business, they often leave some change in the cabin."
"But every time I come here the next day, I always feel like I have a lot less change, but I don't know what's wrong?"
"Anyway, I just feel like there's been a thief in the store."
"There was a thief in the store?" After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, the second-level superintendent also asked curiously: "Then there was a thief in the store. The lock must have been broken, right?"
"The lock has not been broken." Lu Weiwei shook her head and said truthfully: "The lock has not been broken."
"However, the lock was indeed picked, and..."
Halfway through her words, Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen beside her.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, looked at the eagle-eye aerial camera high up and reminded:
"Did you see that camera up there?"
"I saw it. It seems to be a high-altitude eagle eye camera." The second-level superintendent on the side said.
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently and said truthfully: "I just applied for permission to use the high-altitude eagle eye camera through my colleagues in the office."
"And this high-altitude eagle eye camera happened to be able to capture the location of the board house, so we searched for what happened in the board house during this period after the couple closed the door and went home."
"Then... what happened then? After hearing what Gu Chen said, the trainee policeman also asked out of curiosity."
Gu Chen said slowly: "We found that during this period, whenever night falls, after the boss and his wife pack their things and go home, there is always a dark figure running into the boardroom."
"Use your lock-picking skills to pick the door lock, and then enter the board house to commit theft."
"Is that so?" After hearing what Gu Chen said, the second-level superintendent looked around for a few seconds, then nodded and said:
"That's right, this is a surveillance blind spot, and ordinary cameras can't capture it here."
Looking up at the high-altitude eagle-eye camera at the top of the mall, the second-level superintendent said: "Only this high-altitude eagle-eye camera can capture it."
After a pause, the second-level superintendent asked Gu Chen: "Well, Director Gu, what did you see in the high-altitude eagle eye camera?"
"I saw this guy stealing change, but this guy is quite cunning. He only steals a little bit at a time, so it's not easy for the couple to detect him."
"Even later, this guy might have been hungry, so he made pancakes directly in the cabin."
"What?!"
Upon hearing what Gu Chen said, the second-level superintendent and the trainee police officer were stunned on the spot. They were both stunned at the same time.
The trainee police officer also said in disbelief: "This...this guy not only stole change, but also made pancakes by himself?"
"Is this guy really doing this?" asked the second-level superintendent on the side.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei nodded at the same time.
"My dear." The second-level superintendent slapped his forehead and said in disbelief: "Is this guy stupid?"
"Not only that, they are quite diligent. Not only do they come here every night to steal money, but they also make pancakes here."
"In the first few days, I might be a little unfamiliar with making pancakes, so I started making pancakes very slowly."
"But this guy didn't give up. He came here to queue up again during the day and watched the boss lady making pancakes at such a close distance."
"I came here at night and during the day, and immediately learned the process of making pancakes. So in the next few days, this little thief made pancakes very smoothly in the family's wooden house."
Lu Weiwei also shared the situation that He Junchao told her in detail.
When the trainee police officer and the second-level superintendent heard this, they also looked at each other. After being stunned for a few seconds, they suddenly burst into laughter.
They were also a trainee police officer and a second-level superintendent. They covered their stomachs and mouths and laughed wildly. Lu Weiwei couldn't help but join in and said:
"Don't laugh, all of you. At first, I had the same reaction as you. I was also made to cry by this thief. I thought this was too weird."
"Isn't that right? Haha, my stomach hurts from laughing so much." The trainee policeman complained while holding his stomach.
The second-level superintendent on the side covered his stomach with his left hand and waved his right hand:
"I can't help it, I can't help it anymore. I really can't bear to laugh anymore. Do you still feel this weird?"
Shaking his head, the second-level superintendent said helplessly: "In the end, is this guy still so persistent?" "Yes." As soon as the second-level superintendent finished speaking, Lu Weiwei nodded and confirmed:
"According to the information sent by my colleague, it is true that this thief still comes here every night to practice making pancakes and steal some change along the way."
"Let's just say, the couple at this pancake stall said that they seem to have a lot less change, but it's not too much."
"After all, it's just change, but I feel that the amount may not be large, and I'm also afraid that our police won't accept the case."
"So I've been very confused. Just now, Junior Brother Gu and I were buying pancakes here, and they recognized me, so we had a little chat."
Glancing at Gu Chen beside her, Lu Weiwei added: "So my junior brother Gu directly asked one of our colleagues to apply for high-altitude eagle eye permission, and that's when he discovered this weird guy."
"As expected, the Phantom Thief Kid specializes in stealing diamonds, but this thief specializes in stealing change and secretly making pancakes."
The second-level superintendent shook his head and said helplessly: "I really can't tell, this guy should be called the Pancake Phantom Thief, right?"
"Pancake thief?" Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment after hearing the nickname chosen by the second-level superintendent, then covered her mouth and snickered:
"Pancake Thief? What a name. I like it."
"Now it's not a question of whether you like it or not, but a question of how to catch this pancake thief." Seeing that everyone was chatting, Gu Chen simply threw the question out.
The second-level superintendent patted his chest and assured Gu Chen: "Gu Bureau, don't worry about this. I'll tell the leader when I get back. I'll stay around here tonight and I'll definitely help you catch this pancake thief. "
"That's good." Seeing that things were done, Gu Chen felt happy.
Lu Weiwei joked from the side: "After you catch this pancake thief, remember to ask him what he thought at the time?"
"I also want to know, does this guy really like making pancakes? Or is he just trying to steal money and make pancakes to fill his stomach?"
"Haha, that's for sure. We will definitely catch this pancake thief and find out about this matter." The trainee police officer also quickly agreed.
I feel that such strange characters are indeed rare.
After everyone exchanged a few simple greetings at the scene, Gu Chen also asked Lu Weiwei to show the video of the thief sent by He Junchao to two colleagues, so that the two colleagues could use the surveillance screenshots as a reference.
Then the pancake monster thief can be captured in one fell swoop late at night.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were going to Zhang Jingde's house to see Zhang Jingde's injury.
……
……
A week later.
Gu Chen paused the documents on his desk and looked down at his watch.
It was 7 o'clock in the evening. Since Gu Chen had to take a break the next day, he was going to ask Lu Weiwei if he would go to his house for dinner?
Since the recent work has not been too busy, and when Xiao Yang went to Southeast Asia and the Philippines, his work was basically over.
Therefore, commendation meetings have been held recently, and the entire Furong Branch is also active in this atmosphere of honor.
"Junior Brother Gu." After finishing the work in hand, Lu Weiwei turned to look at Gu Chen behind her, and quickly asked: "Junior Brother Gu, I will also take the day off tomorrow. Can I go to your house for dinner?"
"I was just about to say this, and I wanted to ask you." Gu Chen also said with a smile.
I originally wanted to ask Lu Weiwei for her opinion, but usually Lu Weiwei would agree.
But Lu Weiwei asked herself directly that it was novel to go to her own home for dinner.
Of course, who told it to be Lu Weiwei?The Gu Chen family has long regarded Lu Weiwei as one of their own.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei got along quite harmoniously with Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang, as if they were really a family.
Moreover, Lu Weiwei had a lot of topics to talk about, and there seemed to be endless topics to talk about with Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang, making the two of them laugh non-stop.
Gu Chen thought, that's fine. Every time he goes home, the atmosphere is not so lively.
It can be said that Lu Weiwei's arrival has added a lot of joy and laughter to the family.
"Then it's settled." Lu Weiwei paused the documents on the table, put them in a folder aside, and then said:
"Then you can have a good rest tonight and start early tomorrow."
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently, then stood up.
In the office, there are several new police officers working the night shift.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other and walked out of the office side by side.
……
……
The next day, 10 am.
Gu Chen had already taken Lu Weiwei and drove to the outdoor parking lot of the shopping mall opposite the community.
"Let's buy some pancakes first and take them back to my parents to try. I guess they have never tasted such delicious pancakes."
While Gu Chen was speaking, he had already pulled the handbrake.
Lu Weiwei was also curious and asked: "Uncle and aunt are staying here, won't they come here to try this snack?"
"They don't have such hobbies. They are busy with their own things every day. As for finding delicious food, that is a matter for young people." Gu Chen also smiled teasingly.
"That's right." Lu Weiwei, who got out of the car and closed the door, also grinned and said:
"Let's go by the way to see the couple bosses and see if the High-tech Branch has helped them catch that little thief. Let's call it a return visit."
"Yes." Gu Chen just echoed, thinking in his mind, I don't know if what happened last week has been resolved?
Of course, Gu Chen also believed in the efficiency of his colleagues here. He felt that the evidence was there, and it was only a matter of time before he found someone.
Since it was 10 a.m., many stalls had just opened at this moment.
Many food stall owners are preparing ingredients and cleaning up.
From a distance, Gu Chen saw a few customers standing at the door of the pancake house.
Although there are not many customers in the morning, the queue still highlights the wonder of this pancake stall.
"Hey!" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh when she saw this scene: "This morning, people started queuing up to do business. I really don't know how much money this couple makes in a year?"
"It must be very profitable." Gu Chen also smiled and said casually.
Afterwards, the two came to the door of the pancake house and took the initiative to line up behind the others.
Since the queue was not very long, Gu Chen didn't have to wait too long.
But at this moment, Gu Chen discovered that the person making pancakes was the boss, not the wife.
I thought maybe the business was not so busy in the morning, so the boss could come here alone.
But when Gu Chen saw the boss making pancakes, his movements were much slower than his wife's, and the pace was not too fast either.
In addition, there is no helper, so all processes need to be operated by yourself.
So the movements back and forth were a bit ridiculously slow.
"Boss, here are four pancakes, add this, this, and this." Lu Weiwei still ordered four pancakes according to her own taste.
"Okay." The boss took a deep breath and then started to prepare the ingredients again.
Gu Chen saw that the boss didn't even look up at the customer, so he reminded him: "By the way, boss, has the thief from last week been caught?"
"Ah?" After hearing what Gu Chen said, the boss, who was a little slow to react, quickly stood up from his crouching position and looked up at Gu Chen in front of him.
When he saw that the people coming were Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, the boss immediately grinned: "Hey? Isn't this Gu Bureau? So it's you guys?"
The boss was also overjoyed to see an acquaintance.
Lu Weiwei quickly asked: "By the way, boss, you haven't told me yet, was the thief last week caught?"
"Caught, caught. I tell you that the day after this incident, this thief was caught by the police here."
“When I found out that this thief was still making pancakes in my cabin every day, I really couldn’t laugh or cry.”
"Moreover, I heard that this guy not only comes to my pancake stall at night, but also during the day. He also buys pancakes from me and watches the making process of my pancakes."
After saying this, the boss also took a deep breath and said helplessly:
"To be honest, this is the first time I have encountered this situation in my life. The police here call him the 'Pancake Thief'. It really makes me laugh to death."
"Just catch it." Gu Chen finally felt relieved after listening to the boss's story, so Gu Chen quickly said again:
"Oh, by the way, now that you've caught that thief, have you calculated how much money you've lost in total?"
"It's been counted." The boss replied to Gu Chen while preparing the ingredients:
"That thief came to my stall nine times in total, and he was caught red-handed on the ninth time."
"Anyway, adding up the first eight times, he stole a total of more than 700 yuan of change from my cabin, right?"
"How much?" when hearing that number?Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh:
"He came to your place 9 times and stole more than 700 yuan in total? For more than 700 yuan, he had to pick the lock every time."
"When you get in, you have to make pancakes for yourself, and then you have to clean the counter."
"Then lock it again and act like nothing happened."
Speaking of this, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh and shook her head: "I really can't see that this guy is really good enough."
"Yeah, I can't believe it. Every time I come here, I steal less than 100 yuan. I really don't know what he thinks?" Listening to Lu Weiwei's complaints, the boss couldn't help but say.
Gu Chen quickly asked: "After the police caught him, did they find out what he was thinking? Also, what did he steal the money for?"
"I told you." As he spoke, the boss had already started making pancakes and replied:
"I heard from the police comrades that that guy originally liked to surf the Internet nearby, but he didn't have a serious job, so he thought of going to a nearby food court to steal some change to surf the Internet."
"It turned out that I kept a lot of change in my cabin, so I started to have evil intentions."
With a faint sigh, the boss added: "But later, maybe this guy suddenly felt hungry, and then, seeing that I had ready-made tools and ingredients here, he thought, how about making some pancakes?"
"So, the result is that this guy is getting more and more motivated."
"At first, he was a little unsuccessful and his movements were slow. Later, this guy thought that he would pass by here often anyway, so he simply came to my place during the day to observe my production process in the name of buying pancakes. .”
After waving his hand, the boss shook his head helplessly: "So, this guy finally understood the process of making pancakes in 9 days."
"If it weren't for the secret sauce, which my wife and I made at home, I guess this guy would have learned all the steps and key techniques."
"Maybe, he really wants to open a pancake stall somewhere else."
"Is that considered your apprentice who has gone out here?" Lu Weiwei said jokingly, suppressing her laughter.
"Harm!" The boss waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Let's forget about this kind of apprentice. Anyway, we are at ease after being caught, so we don't have to be suspicious every day."
"It's just that this thief is too weird. He only steals from my family every time he steals things, and he doesn't bring such a heap of wool?"
"That's right." Lu Weiwei nodded with a suppressed smile and said jokingly:
"Who told you that your pancake stall is doing well? I guess they care about this."
After Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gu Chen looked left and right, then looked at the pancake boss and asked curiously:
"Oh, by the way, where is the boss lady? Don't you two usually do business together?"
"My wife..."
Halfway through his words, the pancake owner was stunned for a moment and seemed unable to continue.
Gu Chen, who saw the problem, quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
"I...my wife has been missing for a few days." The pancake owner lowered his head and said.
"Missing? How many days have you been missing?" Listening to what the pancake boss said, Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, feeling a little unbelievable, so she quickly asked the boss again:
"By the way, what's going on? The boss lady was fine, why did she disappear?"
"Besides, if I've been missing for a few days, why don't you go look for me? What if something happens?"
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei seemed to realize something?So he pointed at the boss and quickly asked:
"It couldn't be that...you two had a quarrel, right?"
"Yes, there was a quarrel." Faced with Lu Weiwei's question, the pancake owner quickly agreed.
"Harm!" Feeling that she might have made a fuss, Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly:
"So it turned out that the two couples were quarreling and having conflicts? But even if they were quarreling and having conflicts, they wouldn't run away from home, right? How many more days would they lose contact?"
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei asked the pancake owner again: "But, haven't you contacted your wife in the past few days?"
"I can't get in touch, and I can't get through on my cell phone either," the pancake owner said.
