I am a super cop
Chapter 2420 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix [2 in 1 Chapter]
The emergency rescue is still continuing. With the help of Gu Chen's team, everyone is carrying out their work in an orderly manner.
When the pancake proprietress was carried out on a stretcher and put directly into the ambulance, everyone's hearts were relieved.
Watching the ambulance start the vehicle and the flashing lights illuminate the dark sky, Gu Chen and others quickly got into the car and followed closely behind.
……
……
3:40 am.
Outside the emergency room of Jiangnan People's Hospital, everyone is waiting for the results.
At this moment, the pancake owner and the noodle shop owner came one after another from outside.
Both were notified by the police.
The pancake owner comes looking for his wife, and the noodle shop owner comes looking for her husband.
The two happened to meet in the waiting passage, and no one knew why.
The moment the pancake owner saw Gu Chen, he rushed forward and grabbed Gu Chen's sleeve: "Officer Gu, has my wife been found?"
Gu Chen said nothing and glanced in the direction of the emergency room.
The pancake boss looked dumbfounded, turned to look, and quickly looked back.
Looking at Gu Chen with a confused look on his face: "Officer Gu, what's going on?"
"Could it be that my wife has really been found? Is she still in first aid?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen didn't respond directly, just nodded slightly.
Now the pancake boss quit and quickly asked Gu Chen: "What happened to her? Where did you find her?"
"Calm down first." Gu Chen pushed away the pancake boss's hands and replied calmly:
"We found your lover in an abandoned mine near the mining area. Your lover is still in a deep coma due to lack of water and food."
"For now, no detailed instructions have been given from the emergency room, and we are still waiting for the results."
"How could this happen? Who did this?" Faced with Gu Chen's answer, the pancake owner turned blue and said in disbelief.
"We'll talk about this later." Gu Chen looked up at the time in the emergency room. It was almost 4am.
Gu Chen wants the pancake boss to wait for the treatment results in the hospital.
Because if the rescue was timely, the pancake proprietress might still be able to save her life.
But if the rescue is not timely, or the window period for rescue has been missed, then this will be the last time the pancake owner meets his wife.
Due to both emotion and reason, Gu Chen should let the pancake boss stay here.
As for the noodle shop owner’s wife, she did not see her husband come home after closing time and could not be contacted by phone. Therefore, the noodle shop owner’s wife was very worried about her husband’s safety.
Fortunately, after Gu Chen's team found the specific location of the pancake proprietress, they contacted the noodle shop proprietress and explained to her that her husband was only assisting the police in investigating the case.
Now people have been found and the truth has been revealed.
Gu Chen felt that the noodle shop proprietress might also come over to see her best friend. Maybe this would be the last time she would see her best friend.
As her husband, the noodle shop owner was also at the scene.
However, in order to give him dignity, Gu Chen asked not to put handcuffs on him and made it clear to the noodle shop owner.
Let him stay here honestly and wait for his wife to come over.
"Husband, what on earth is going on?" Seeing her husband sitting between Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused and asked weakly.
The noodle shop owner didn't respond, just lowered his head, as if he didn't know what to say?
"What's wrong?" Looking at her husband, sitting here listlessly, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused:
"What happened to you today? You didn't go home after closing time, and you didn't answer the phone."
"It was in the middle of the night that a comrade from the police called me and told me that you were assisting their investigation."
"But I was thinking, they are handling the case, why are you assisting in the investigation? And I heard that the person has been found, so I hurried over to take a look at the situation."
She said a lot, but the noodle shop owner didn't wait for her husband's response.
At this moment, her husband seemed like a walking zombie, completely lifeless.
"What...what's going on here?" Seeing this scene, the noodle shop owner's wife immediately became anxious.
"You don't need to worry now. You should be more worried about your best friend, because life or death depends on tonight." Lu Weiwei also quickly comforted her.
Of course, the noodle shop proprietress also understood the deeper meaning of Lu Weiwei, that is, her best friend might not survive.
Shaking his head, the noodle shop owner choked and said, "What happened tonight? What happened to all of you?"
"Yes." Seeing that everyone had weird expressions tonight, the pancake boss returned to everyone and couldn't help but said:
"You haven't said yet, who kidnapped my wife? What's going on?"
While the pancake boss was talking, the backup police force called by Gu Chen also rushed over from outside under the leadership of Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe.
Everyone immediately gathered around and obeyed Gu Chen's orders.
"Wu Xiaofeng, Ji Zhe, you two stay here and accompany him."
Gu Chen looked at the pancake owner.
"Yes." Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe heard this and responded in unison.
Later, the two of them also came to the pancake boss.
The pancake owner was stunned and said weakly: "Officer Gu, I don't need anyone to accompany me."
Seeing that Gu Chen was unmoved, the pancake owner immediately said: "Could it be that someone is going to do harm to me? Are you trying to protect me?"
"Just let them stay with you." Gu Chen patted the pancake owner on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the noodle shop owner's wife.
Signaling everyone to leave together.
……
……
When everyone arrived at the assault vehicle in the parking lot on the first floor, the atmosphere seemed extremely strange.
Sitting in the spacious space of the assault vehicle were Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, as well as the noodle shop proprietress.
The noodle shop owner was temporarily taken to another police car by two trainee police officers.
Obviously, the assault vehicle is now an independent interrogation room.
The noodle shop proprietress who got into the car also asked Gu Chen very puzzledly: "Officer Gu, what are you doing?"
"How much do you know about your husband?" Gu Chen asked.
"How much do you know about my husband?" Listening to Gu Chen's words, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused and said with a wry smile:
"Officer Gu, why are you asking this? Is it important?"
"For now, it is indeed very important." Officer Wang looked at the noodle shop proprietress and said slowly.
I want to talk about whether the noodle shop proprietress was involved?Everyone must verify for themselves.
You shouldn’t let the noodle shop owner make the decision.
As the best friend of the pancake proprietress and a friend who grew up in the same place, the relationship between the noodle shop proprietress and the pancake proprietress can be said to be very delicate.
In the previous interrogation of the restaurant owner, how much truth did he tell?How many lies are there?These need to be verified clearly.
At this moment, it is time for everyone to interrogate the noodle shop proprietress.
"Don't you know your husband?" Yuan Shasha asked again, and then adjusted the angle of the law enforcement recorder.
It feels like the police are serious. Although they don't know their intentions, the noodle shop owner seems to have a vague sense of the truth.
After a pause and trying to calm down, the noodle shop owner also said slowly:
"After I got married to my husband, I feel that we get along very well, at least we get along very well, and we have never had any conflicts?"
"He used to be an employee of your store?" Officer Wang asked.
"Yes." Although she didn't know Officer Wang's intention, the noodle shop owner responded calmly:
"He should have told you the story between us, right?"
Officer Wang nodded silently and said, "But I want to hear your side of the story more."
"Okay." Taking a deep breath, the noodle shop proprietress also said slowly:
"As for him, from the first day I met him, he seemed more mature and stable, and he worked very hard."
"I was also divorced at the time, and thinking about my last failed marriage gave me a headache."
"Although I divorced my husband and got the restaurant, I feel insecure. How am I going to live in the future?"
After a pause, the noodle shop owner pushed her long hair back with her hands and continued:
"Later, I just thought that since we are divorced, we should quickly find someone to marry. At least this person should be mature, stable and emotionally stable."
"And I can't be like my ex-husband who has no sense of responsibility. Therefore, I have been lamenting that it is indeed difficult to find such a person in the vast sea of people."
“But when I recruited my current husband at the restaurant, I felt like he was sent by God to help me.”
"Why do you say that?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Because, because his character is relatively good."
"Is this your first feeling?" Lu Weiwei said.
"Yes." Nodding silently, the noodle shop proprietress said without hesitation:
"He had just arrived in Jiangnan City at the time and had no job. Moreover, I heard that he also had an unfortunate marriage, which was very similar to mine."
"So, I guess it was out of compassion that I kept him working in the store."
"But you also know that my restaurant at that time was relatively large, but it didn't need too many people, so the salary I could give him was very limited."
Having said this, the noodle shop owner’s wife suddenly raised her voice again and continued:
"However, what I never expected was that he worked extremely hard. He did the work of several people by himself, and he worked hard without complaint. He came in the earliest and left at the last every day."
Shaking her head, the noodle shop owner's wife was also very curious and said: "I was very curious at that time, and I kept observing this person."
"I felt that he was emotionally frustrated, so he worked hard. Later, I communicated with him in depth and found that this person is indeed a good person."
"Then do you have the feeling that people are specifically looking for your store, or that they are specifically targeting you?" Yuan Shasha said.
Yuan Shasha was also suddenly interrupted. After saying this, the noodle shop owner was confused and quickly asked:
"Comrade police, what do you mean?"
"It means that he may want to stay with you, so he deliberately found your restaurant to work, and then tried every means to gain your approval."
"But actually, he has his own little plans. Have you considered these?"
"Uh..." It seemed a bit unexpected. The noodle shop owner lowered her head and thought for a few seconds before saying again:
"I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying that the reason why my husband behaved so well in the first place was just to please me?"
Seeing everyone nodding silently, the noodle shop owner's heart skipped a beat and she quickly said:
"Could it be that I am being targeted by my current husband? His purpose is to get close to me?"
Seeing everyone continuing to nod, the restaurant proprietress was really panicked now, and she quickly asked:
"How could this be? Have you made a mistake? Also, you called me here late at night to separate from my husband. Is it just to sow discord?"
"I think you misunderstood." The proprietress of the restaurant was very emotional, and Gu Chen quickly explained:
"As for your husband, we already know all about his situation. We want to know your attitude now."
"My attitude? What's my attitude?" The noodle shop owner was very puzzled.
Lu Weiwei grinned and then said, "Don't you see that your husband has been taking advantage of you?"
"No, he is my husband, what is he using me for?" Feeling that these police officers were confused, the noodle shop owner's wife instinctively became alert.
Officer Wang also laughed, and then said: "Don't you see that your husband's target has always been your best friend and her family?"
"His target is my best friend's family?" It feels a little baffling, but it reminds me of my husband's silent expression when I met him just now.
There was also the police who took him to assist in the investigation in the middle of the night, but finally found his missing best friend.
Then I saw my missing best friend, who was being rescued urgently.
All these things made the noodle shop proprietress suddenly enlightened, and she suddenly realized: "Could it be that my best friend was kidnapped by my husband?"
Seeing everyone but not speaking for a moment, the noodle shop proprietress seemed to understand something?The whole person was leaning against the vehicle, his eyes expressionless as he said:
"How could this happen? How could my husband become this kidnapper?"
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the noodle shop proprietress also said in a pleading tone:
"Comrade police officers, could you have made a mistake? Could it be that the situation is not what you imagined?"
"I think you should know this issue best," Gu Chen said.
"No way?" The noodle shop proprietress scratched the back of her head and said thoughtfully:
"Although, every time my best friend runs away from home with her husband and stays at our house temporarily, I always feel that my husband is a little strange."
"At first, it felt a little inconvenient, but after all, this is my best friend, and we grew up together since childhood, and we are from the same village." "She is more or less like a biological sister, although she also has many We have shortcomings, but they are not important. What is important is that we are like a family."
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the noodle shop proprietress continued:
"Although I can see that my husband seems to have some prejudice against his best friend, but you think that this is the reason why my husband kidnapped my best friend, isn't it a bit too farfetched?"
"We didn't say that this is why we kidnapped your best friend." Listening to the noodle shop owner's quibbles, Yuan Shasha immediately retorted:
"We called you here this time just to tell you that you have been being used by your husband. Can't you see it?"
"What's going on?" The noodle shop owner asked with a confused look and a choked tone:
"Comrade police, can you please tell me? What happened to my husband?"
Gu Chen glanced at Lu Weiwei beside him.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also understood it, and then slowly said: "Actually, this matter has to start a few years ago..."
Lu Weiwei told the story one by one from the noodle shop owner, how her father was killed, to her marriage to the noodle shop owner's wife, and then her revenge plan.
When the noodle shop owner heard this, her eyes became moist involuntarily.
For a full 15 minutes, Lu Weiwei explained the details one by one.
After finishing her words, Lu Weiwei also asked the noodle shop proprietress: "You know what's going on now, right?"
"Impossible." Although she now knew the truth of the matter, the noodle shop owner's wife looked at Gu Chen and the others with disbelief in her eyes.
Then, there was a burst of violent crying throughout the carriage.
The noodle shop proprietress was crying her heart out in the police assault vehicle on this late night.
At this moment, Gu Chen received a call from Ji Zhe, so Gu Chen quickly got out of the car, closed the car door, and quickly opened the answer button: "Jizhe, what's going on?"
"Senior Brother Gu, the pancake proprietress is out of danger."
On the other end of the phone, Ji Zhe's urgent report came.
"That means the pancake proprietress won't die for the time being, right?" Gu Chen asked simply and clearly.
"Yes, he can't die, but the doctor said that his current condition is still very bad and he needs to be transferred to ICU."
"What about her husband?" Gu Chen asked again.
"I have been with him all the time, and now I am going to the ICU ward with him," Ji Zhe said.
Gu Chen was silent for a few seconds, and then slowly said: "I understand, I'll come over right now."
After the words fell, Gu Chen reopened the door of the assault vehicle.
At this moment, the noodle shop owner's crying continued.
In the entire carriage, everyone felt a harsh sensation.
"Stop crying." Gu Chen's words instantly interrupted the crying of the noodle shop owner.
She looked at Gu Chen, also looking confused.
Gu Chen said slowly: "Your best friend has been rescued and is currently under observation in the ICU. She should be fine."
"Really?" After hearing that her best friend had turned the corner, and thinking that her husband's guilt might be reduced, the noodle shop owner quickly closed her palms, bowed to the sky, and then said some words of blessing.
Gu Chen continued to remind: "Don't you want to go see your bestie now?"
"Yes, of course I do." The noodle shop proprietress, who felt deeply guilty, just wanted to atone for her husband's sins.
If your best friend is killed by your husband, then your husband will definitely be sentenced severely.
But now, my best friend has turned the corner and feels that things can turn around, so the noodle shop proprietress immediately adjusts her mood and jumps out of the assault vehicle.
Later, he followed Gu Chen's team to the ICU ward.
……
……
When everyone came outside the ward, Gu Chen asked the noodle shop owner to come in and called out the pancake owner next to the hospital bed.
Gu Chen and the others did not go in, but stood outside the ward and waited quietly.
Not long after, through the glass on the door, everyone saw the restaurant proprietress and the pancake boss having a brief exchange, and the pancake boss walked over from the other side.
Gu Chen and others took a step back and took the initiative to give up their position.
The moment the ward door opened, the pancake owner plopped down and knelt in front of Gu Chen. He also kowtowed to Gu Chen and said:
"Officer Gu, thank you. Thank you for saving my wife. I thank you."
"You get up first." Seeing the pancake boss, he kowtowed to him, and Gu Chen also pulled him up.
"Thank you very much. Thank you for saving my wife. My wife is now out of danger. The doctor said she is fine. The doctor said she is fine."
Having said this, the pancake owner couldn't conceal his inner excitement, and tears fell involuntarily.
Gu Chen nodded silently and continued: "It's okay, I can talk to you now."
"Yes, you haven't told me yet, who kidnapped my wife?" Upon hearing this, the pancake owner wiped his tears and asked quickly.
Gu Chen did not respond, but Lu Weiwei, who was beside Gu Chen, answered directly for him:
"He is the husband of your wife's best friend."
"Is it him?" When he heard the result, the pancake owner was stunned, and his face instantly turned ugly.
After briefly calming down, the pancake owner also asked Gu Chen in disbelief:
"Comrade police, what is going on? Why does this bitch want to harm my wife?"
"I have to ask you." Gu Chen said calmly.
This actually confused the pancake boss.
After briefly thinking about it for a few seconds, he also looked up at Gu Chen and asked hurriedly: "Ask me? Could it be that this has something to do with me?"
Seeing Gu Chen nod, the pancake owner also said in confusion:
"No, Officer Gu, are you mistaken? I have no conflict with him, why is he still having trouble with me?"
"Moreover, he is the husband of my wife's best friend. Our two families have always had a good relationship. Everyone can prove this."
"That's not the problem." Officer Wang said casually after listening to the pancake boss's various remarks.
The pancake owner was stunned, and quickly looked at Officer Wang again. He also took a step forward and quickly asked:
"Officer Wang, why do you say that?"
"Do you still remember how you and your lover started this business?"
Officer Wang didn't follow him in vain and asked straight to the point.
"How did you start the business? We are in the pancake business and we have inherited the skills. Just working for others in the company is no different from running our own business."
"Besides, running your own business gives you more freedom and makes more money..."
"Okay, okay, that's not what I want to ask you." After listening to the pancake boss's story, Officer Wang quickly interrupted:
"What I want to say is about the inheritance of your pancake skills."
"Is the inheritance of pancake craftsmanship?" Scratching the back of his head, the pancake owner also looked confused, as if he still didn't understand.
Yuan Shasha sighed and said helplessly: "Just asking you, from whom did you learn your pancake-making skills?"
"We taught ourselves. There are many tutorials online. Also, it's not difficult. We can learn how to do it after we watch it a few times."
The pancake boss said calmly.
So Yuan Shasha asked again: "Then what is the reason for your booming business?"
"It's our family's unique secret recipe, which means our sauce is different from other people's. It's a special seasoning."
"That's right." When the pancake boss said this, Yuan Shasha also followed the topic and continued:
"Then let me ask you, who did you learn this secret sauce from?"
"A master from the north," said the pancake owner.
"Then you are his apprentice?" Lu Weiwei also stepped forward and asked.
The pancake boss hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "Yes...that's right, how else would I learn how to make this kind of sauce?"
"But some people say that your skill, that is, the skill of making special sauces, was stolen." Officer Wang raised his eyebrows in a sinister manner.
This statement made the pancake owner, who looked confident just now, panic instantly.
"Is that so?" Seeing that the pancake owner didn't respond, Officer Wang continued to ask.
"Nonsense... nonsense, who is talking nonsense? It's obvious that we, the couple, came here to study and be apprentices..."
"But your master seems to have been killed by you. Is this true?"
As soon as the pancake boss finished speaking, Lu Weiwei added something.
This sentence really frightened the pancake owner. He couldn't help but take two steps back. His eyes wandered and he said, "This must be someone deliberately spreading rumors and seriously injuring us."
Seeing that Gu Chen and the others didn't respond, the pancake boss raised his head and asked, "What's wrong? Who is framed us? It must be those fellow pancake makers in Jiangnan City, right?"
"They must be jealous that my pancakes are delicious and make a lot of money, which affects their business, so they deliberately spread rumors and slander me. That must be the case, right?"
Looking at Gu Chen and seeing that Gu Chen still had no expression on his face, the pancake owner suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Gu Chen also sighed, shook his head and said, "I have given you many tips and opportunities, but you just don't tell the truth."
With a faint sigh, Gu Chen added: "The so-called teacher I heard was pushed down by your lover. In the end, he died slowly due to excessive injuries."
"Nonsense!" After hearing Gu Chen's story, the pancake owner's mood had reached the extreme. He waved his arms angrily and retorted:
"This is slander, this is slander."
"But why don't you ask us, how did we know?" Lu Weiwei couldn't stand it anymore and asked the pancake boss.
Seeing that the pancake boss was silent, Lu Weiwei also said slowly: "Perhaps only you and your wife know about this matter. Also, how did you get your skills?"
"Did your master teach it to you normally? Or did you secretly learn it by using the surveillance system secretly installed in your master's house? You should know best, right?"
Seeing that the pancake boss was trembling nervously, Lu Weiwei also sighed, walked back and forth in front of the pancake boss, shook her head and said:
"Actually, you should know that if we can learn so many things, someone must tell us the truth."
"And you also know very well that when you were discovered by the old man for secretly learning skills, he came to you to argue, but was pushed to the ground by your lover and fainted."
"You were afraid that things would get serious, so you sent the old man to the hospital and finally escaped. You should know best, right?"
Nodding silently, Gu Chen also continued: "The old man at that time was indeed still breathing and was dying."
"He finally told the situation to his son who came to see him for the last time. Because of this incident, his son formed a quarrel with you and vowed to avenge you and your wife. Do you know this?"
"I...I..." Listening to Gu Chen's narration, the pancake owner was sweating coldly and said with sobs:
"I... have heard a little bit. I heard that someone has been to our hometown to find the whereabouts of our couple. However, I am not sure if they are family members of the old man."
"That means it's true, right?" When Officer Wang saw the pancake owner, he was directly bypassed by Gu Chen, and he asked casually.
But at this moment, the pancake boss seemed to know very well that he was reported by the old man's son.
But I don’t know, who is that person?So the pancake owner looked up at Gu Chen, wanting to get the result.
Gu Chen just said calmly: "The husband of your lover's best friend is the one who wants to seek revenge from you."
"Is it him?" Hearing Gu Chen's words, the pancake owner took two steps back in fright, and said with a crazy look on his face:
"How could it be him? We have a very good relationship. We have been getting along very well over the years. We are like a family."
"Besides, he is the husband of my wife's best friend, how could he..."
Speaking of this, what does Pancake Boss seem to be thinking of?Then he suddenly realized:
"Yes, my wife's best friend was divorced before, and then she got a bigamy with him."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, the pancake owner then thought carefully and said with horror:
"Could it be that this guy knew who I was from the beginning?"
Seeing Gu Chen nodding silently, the pancake owner said with a trembling voice: "Could it be that this guy started preparing to seek revenge from me a few years ago?"
"And the reason why he married my wife's best friend was because of us as a couple?"
"He first took advantage of the opportunity at work to get close to my wife's best friend, and then tried to find a way to be with her."
"In this way, he can approach us and our husband at any time?"
Speaking of this, the pancake owner covered his chest with both hands, his whole body was shaking, his eyes were wide open, and he was mumbling to himself:
"So, this guy has wanted to take revenge on me for a long time? He has been lurking next to me, but I don't know who he is?"
"Oh my God! How could this happen? Why is this guy so vicious? How can he be so vicious?"
"You and your lover are the ones who are vicious, right?" Listening to what the pancake boss said, Officer Wang also said angrily:
"Those things you did to his father, are you any better than him? It's just a joke at fifty steps and a hundred steps at a time. You are really sleeping dragons and phoenixes."
... (end of this chapter)
When the pancake proprietress was carried out on a stretcher and put directly into the ambulance, everyone's hearts were relieved.
Watching the ambulance start the vehicle and the flashing lights illuminate the dark sky, Gu Chen and others quickly got into the car and followed closely behind.
……
……
3:40 am.
Outside the emergency room of Jiangnan People's Hospital, everyone is waiting for the results.
At this moment, the pancake owner and the noodle shop owner came one after another from outside.
Both were notified by the police.
The pancake owner comes looking for his wife, and the noodle shop owner comes looking for her husband.
The two happened to meet in the waiting passage, and no one knew why.
The moment the pancake owner saw Gu Chen, he rushed forward and grabbed Gu Chen's sleeve: "Officer Gu, has my wife been found?"
Gu Chen said nothing and glanced in the direction of the emergency room.
The pancake boss looked dumbfounded, turned to look, and quickly looked back.
Looking at Gu Chen with a confused look on his face: "Officer Gu, what's going on?"
"Could it be that my wife has really been found? Is she still in first aid?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen didn't respond directly, just nodded slightly.
Now the pancake boss quit and quickly asked Gu Chen: "What happened to her? Where did you find her?"
"Calm down first." Gu Chen pushed away the pancake boss's hands and replied calmly:
"We found your lover in an abandoned mine near the mining area. Your lover is still in a deep coma due to lack of water and food."
"For now, no detailed instructions have been given from the emergency room, and we are still waiting for the results."
"How could this happen? Who did this?" Faced with Gu Chen's answer, the pancake owner turned blue and said in disbelief.
"We'll talk about this later." Gu Chen looked up at the time in the emergency room. It was almost 4am.
Gu Chen wants the pancake boss to wait for the treatment results in the hospital.
Because if the rescue was timely, the pancake proprietress might still be able to save her life.
But if the rescue is not timely, or the window period for rescue has been missed, then this will be the last time the pancake owner meets his wife.
Due to both emotion and reason, Gu Chen should let the pancake boss stay here.
As for the noodle shop owner’s wife, she did not see her husband come home after closing time and could not be contacted by phone. Therefore, the noodle shop owner’s wife was very worried about her husband’s safety.
Fortunately, after Gu Chen's team found the specific location of the pancake proprietress, they contacted the noodle shop proprietress and explained to her that her husband was only assisting the police in investigating the case.
Now people have been found and the truth has been revealed.
Gu Chen felt that the noodle shop proprietress might also come over to see her best friend. Maybe this would be the last time she would see her best friend.
As her husband, the noodle shop owner was also at the scene.
However, in order to give him dignity, Gu Chen asked not to put handcuffs on him and made it clear to the noodle shop owner.
Let him stay here honestly and wait for his wife to come over.
"Husband, what on earth is going on?" Seeing her husband sitting between Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused and asked weakly.
The noodle shop owner didn't respond, just lowered his head, as if he didn't know what to say?
"What's wrong?" Looking at her husband, sitting here listlessly, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused:
"What happened to you today? You didn't go home after closing time, and you didn't answer the phone."
"It was in the middle of the night that a comrade from the police called me and told me that you were assisting their investigation."
"But I was thinking, they are handling the case, why are you assisting in the investigation? And I heard that the person has been found, so I hurried over to take a look at the situation."
She said a lot, but the noodle shop owner didn't wait for her husband's response.
At this moment, her husband seemed like a walking zombie, completely lifeless.
"What...what's going on here?" Seeing this scene, the noodle shop owner's wife immediately became anxious.
"You don't need to worry now. You should be more worried about your best friend, because life or death depends on tonight." Lu Weiwei also quickly comforted her.
Of course, the noodle shop proprietress also understood the deeper meaning of Lu Weiwei, that is, her best friend might not survive.
Shaking his head, the noodle shop owner choked and said, "What happened tonight? What happened to all of you?"
"Yes." Seeing that everyone had weird expressions tonight, the pancake boss returned to everyone and couldn't help but said:
"You haven't said yet, who kidnapped my wife? What's going on?"
While the pancake boss was talking, the backup police force called by Gu Chen also rushed over from outside under the leadership of Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe.
Everyone immediately gathered around and obeyed Gu Chen's orders.
"Wu Xiaofeng, Ji Zhe, you two stay here and accompany him."
Gu Chen looked at the pancake owner.
"Yes." Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Zhe heard this and responded in unison.
Later, the two of them also came to the pancake boss.
The pancake owner was stunned and said weakly: "Officer Gu, I don't need anyone to accompany me."
Seeing that Gu Chen was unmoved, the pancake owner immediately said: "Could it be that someone is going to do harm to me? Are you trying to protect me?"
"Just let them stay with you." Gu Chen patted the pancake owner on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the noodle shop owner's wife.
Signaling everyone to leave together.
……
……
When everyone arrived at the assault vehicle in the parking lot on the first floor, the atmosphere seemed extremely strange.
Sitting in the spacious space of the assault vehicle were Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, as well as the noodle shop proprietress.
The noodle shop owner was temporarily taken to another police car by two trainee police officers.
Obviously, the assault vehicle is now an independent interrogation room.
The noodle shop proprietress who got into the car also asked Gu Chen very puzzledly: "Officer Gu, what are you doing?"
"How much do you know about your husband?" Gu Chen asked.
"How much do you know about my husband?" Listening to Gu Chen's words, the noodle shop owner's wife also looked confused and said with a wry smile:
"Officer Gu, why are you asking this? Is it important?"
"For now, it is indeed very important." Officer Wang looked at the noodle shop proprietress and said slowly.
I want to talk about whether the noodle shop proprietress was involved?Everyone must verify for themselves.
You shouldn’t let the noodle shop owner make the decision.
As the best friend of the pancake proprietress and a friend who grew up in the same place, the relationship between the noodle shop proprietress and the pancake proprietress can be said to be very delicate.
In the previous interrogation of the restaurant owner, how much truth did he tell?How many lies are there?These need to be verified clearly.
At this moment, it is time for everyone to interrogate the noodle shop proprietress.
"Don't you know your husband?" Yuan Shasha asked again, and then adjusted the angle of the law enforcement recorder.
It feels like the police are serious. Although they don't know their intentions, the noodle shop owner seems to have a vague sense of the truth.
After a pause and trying to calm down, the noodle shop owner also said slowly:
"After I got married to my husband, I feel that we get along very well, at least we get along very well, and we have never had any conflicts?"
"He used to be an employee of your store?" Officer Wang asked.
"Yes." Although she didn't know Officer Wang's intention, the noodle shop owner responded calmly:
"He should have told you the story between us, right?"
Officer Wang nodded silently and said, "But I want to hear your side of the story more."
"Okay." Taking a deep breath, the noodle shop proprietress also said slowly:
"As for him, from the first day I met him, he seemed more mature and stable, and he worked very hard."
"I was also divorced at the time, and thinking about my last failed marriage gave me a headache."
"Although I divorced my husband and got the restaurant, I feel insecure. How am I going to live in the future?"
After a pause, the noodle shop owner pushed her long hair back with her hands and continued:
"Later, I just thought that since we are divorced, we should quickly find someone to marry. At least this person should be mature, stable and emotionally stable."
"And I can't be like my ex-husband who has no sense of responsibility. Therefore, I have been lamenting that it is indeed difficult to find such a person in the vast sea of people."
“But when I recruited my current husband at the restaurant, I felt like he was sent by God to help me.”
"Why do you say that?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Because, because his character is relatively good."
"Is this your first feeling?" Lu Weiwei said.
"Yes." Nodding silently, the noodle shop proprietress said without hesitation:
"He had just arrived in Jiangnan City at the time and had no job. Moreover, I heard that he also had an unfortunate marriage, which was very similar to mine."
"So, I guess it was out of compassion that I kept him working in the store."
"But you also know that my restaurant at that time was relatively large, but it didn't need too many people, so the salary I could give him was very limited."
Having said this, the noodle shop owner’s wife suddenly raised her voice again and continued:
"However, what I never expected was that he worked extremely hard. He did the work of several people by himself, and he worked hard without complaint. He came in the earliest and left at the last every day."
Shaking her head, the noodle shop owner's wife was also very curious and said: "I was very curious at that time, and I kept observing this person."
"I felt that he was emotionally frustrated, so he worked hard. Later, I communicated with him in depth and found that this person is indeed a good person."
"Then do you have the feeling that people are specifically looking for your store, or that they are specifically targeting you?" Yuan Shasha said.
Yuan Shasha was also suddenly interrupted. After saying this, the noodle shop owner was confused and quickly asked:
"Comrade police, what do you mean?"
"It means that he may want to stay with you, so he deliberately found your restaurant to work, and then tried every means to gain your approval."
"But actually, he has his own little plans. Have you considered these?"
"Uh..." It seemed a bit unexpected. The noodle shop owner lowered her head and thought for a few seconds before saying again:
"I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying that the reason why my husband behaved so well in the first place was just to please me?"
Seeing everyone nodding silently, the noodle shop owner's heart skipped a beat and she quickly said:
"Could it be that I am being targeted by my current husband? His purpose is to get close to me?"
Seeing everyone continuing to nod, the restaurant proprietress was really panicked now, and she quickly asked:
"How could this be? Have you made a mistake? Also, you called me here late at night to separate from my husband. Is it just to sow discord?"
"I think you misunderstood." The proprietress of the restaurant was very emotional, and Gu Chen quickly explained:
"As for your husband, we already know all about his situation. We want to know your attitude now."
"My attitude? What's my attitude?" The noodle shop owner was very puzzled.
Lu Weiwei grinned and then said, "Don't you see that your husband has been taking advantage of you?"
"No, he is my husband, what is he using me for?" Feeling that these police officers were confused, the noodle shop owner's wife instinctively became alert.
Officer Wang also laughed, and then said: "Don't you see that your husband's target has always been your best friend and her family?"
"His target is my best friend's family?" It feels a little baffling, but it reminds me of my husband's silent expression when I met him just now.
There was also the police who took him to assist in the investigation in the middle of the night, but finally found his missing best friend.
Then I saw my missing best friend, who was being rescued urgently.
All these things made the noodle shop proprietress suddenly enlightened, and she suddenly realized: "Could it be that my best friend was kidnapped by my husband?"
Seeing everyone but not speaking for a moment, the noodle shop proprietress seemed to understand something?The whole person was leaning against the vehicle, his eyes expressionless as he said:
"How could this happen? How could my husband become this kidnapper?"
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the noodle shop proprietress also said in a pleading tone:
"Comrade police officers, could you have made a mistake? Could it be that the situation is not what you imagined?"
"I think you should know this issue best," Gu Chen said.
"No way?" The noodle shop proprietress scratched the back of her head and said thoughtfully:
"Although, every time my best friend runs away from home with her husband and stays at our house temporarily, I always feel that my husband is a little strange."
"At first, it felt a little inconvenient, but after all, this is my best friend, and we grew up together since childhood, and we are from the same village." "She is more or less like a biological sister, although she also has many We have shortcomings, but they are not important. What is important is that we are like a family."
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the noodle shop proprietress continued:
"Although I can see that my husband seems to have some prejudice against his best friend, but you think that this is the reason why my husband kidnapped my best friend, isn't it a bit too farfetched?"
"We didn't say that this is why we kidnapped your best friend." Listening to the noodle shop owner's quibbles, Yuan Shasha immediately retorted:
"We called you here this time just to tell you that you have been being used by your husband. Can't you see it?"
"What's going on?" The noodle shop owner asked with a confused look and a choked tone:
"Comrade police, can you please tell me? What happened to my husband?"
Gu Chen glanced at Lu Weiwei beside him.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also understood it, and then slowly said: "Actually, this matter has to start a few years ago..."
Lu Weiwei told the story one by one from the noodle shop owner, how her father was killed, to her marriage to the noodle shop owner's wife, and then her revenge plan.
When the noodle shop owner heard this, her eyes became moist involuntarily.
For a full 15 minutes, Lu Weiwei explained the details one by one.
After finishing her words, Lu Weiwei also asked the noodle shop proprietress: "You know what's going on now, right?"
"Impossible." Although she now knew the truth of the matter, the noodle shop owner's wife looked at Gu Chen and the others with disbelief in her eyes.
Then, there was a burst of violent crying throughout the carriage.
The noodle shop proprietress was crying her heart out in the police assault vehicle on this late night.
At this moment, Gu Chen received a call from Ji Zhe, so Gu Chen quickly got out of the car, closed the car door, and quickly opened the answer button: "Jizhe, what's going on?"
"Senior Brother Gu, the pancake proprietress is out of danger."
On the other end of the phone, Ji Zhe's urgent report came.
"That means the pancake proprietress won't die for the time being, right?" Gu Chen asked simply and clearly.
"Yes, he can't die, but the doctor said that his current condition is still very bad and he needs to be transferred to ICU."
"What about her husband?" Gu Chen asked again.
"I have been with him all the time, and now I am going to the ICU ward with him," Ji Zhe said.
Gu Chen was silent for a few seconds, and then slowly said: "I understand, I'll come over right now."
After the words fell, Gu Chen reopened the door of the assault vehicle.
At this moment, the noodle shop owner's crying continued.
In the entire carriage, everyone felt a harsh sensation.
"Stop crying." Gu Chen's words instantly interrupted the crying of the noodle shop owner.
She looked at Gu Chen, also looking confused.
Gu Chen said slowly: "Your best friend has been rescued and is currently under observation in the ICU. She should be fine."
"Really?" After hearing that her best friend had turned the corner, and thinking that her husband's guilt might be reduced, the noodle shop owner quickly closed her palms, bowed to the sky, and then said some words of blessing.
Gu Chen continued to remind: "Don't you want to go see your bestie now?"
"Yes, of course I do." The noodle shop proprietress, who felt deeply guilty, just wanted to atone for her husband's sins.
If your best friend is killed by your husband, then your husband will definitely be sentenced severely.
But now, my best friend has turned the corner and feels that things can turn around, so the noodle shop proprietress immediately adjusts her mood and jumps out of the assault vehicle.
Later, he followed Gu Chen's team to the ICU ward.
……
……
When everyone came outside the ward, Gu Chen asked the noodle shop owner to come in and called out the pancake owner next to the hospital bed.
Gu Chen and the others did not go in, but stood outside the ward and waited quietly.
Not long after, through the glass on the door, everyone saw the restaurant proprietress and the pancake boss having a brief exchange, and the pancake boss walked over from the other side.
Gu Chen and others took a step back and took the initiative to give up their position.
The moment the ward door opened, the pancake owner plopped down and knelt in front of Gu Chen. He also kowtowed to Gu Chen and said:
"Officer Gu, thank you. Thank you for saving my wife. I thank you."
"You get up first." Seeing the pancake boss, he kowtowed to him, and Gu Chen also pulled him up.
"Thank you very much. Thank you for saving my wife. My wife is now out of danger. The doctor said she is fine. The doctor said she is fine."
Having said this, the pancake owner couldn't conceal his inner excitement, and tears fell involuntarily.
Gu Chen nodded silently and continued: "It's okay, I can talk to you now."
"Yes, you haven't told me yet, who kidnapped my wife?" Upon hearing this, the pancake owner wiped his tears and asked quickly.
Gu Chen did not respond, but Lu Weiwei, who was beside Gu Chen, answered directly for him:
"He is the husband of your wife's best friend."
"Is it him?" When he heard the result, the pancake owner was stunned, and his face instantly turned ugly.
After briefly calming down, the pancake owner also asked Gu Chen in disbelief:
"Comrade police, what is going on? Why does this bitch want to harm my wife?"
"I have to ask you." Gu Chen said calmly.
This actually confused the pancake boss.
After briefly thinking about it for a few seconds, he also looked up at Gu Chen and asked hurriedly: "Ask me? Could it be that this has something to do with me?"
Seeing Gu Chen nod, the pancake owner also said in confusion:
"No, Officer Gu, are you mistaken? I have no conflict with him, why is he still having trouble with me?"
"Moreover, he is the husband of my wife's best friend. Our two families have always had a good relationship. Everyone can prove this."
"That's not the problem." Officer Wang said casually after listening to the pancake boss's various remarks.
The pancake owner was stunned, and quickly looked at Officer Wang again. He also took a step forward and quickly asked:
"Officer Wang, why do you say that?"
"Do you still remember how you and your lover started this business?"
Officer Wang didn't follow him in vain and asked straight to the point.
"How did you start the business? We are in the pancake business and we have inherited the skills. Just working for others in the company is no different from running our own business."
"Besides, running your own business gives you more freedom and makes more money..."
"Okay, okay, that's not what I want to ask you." After listening to the pancake boss's story, Officer Wang quickly interrupted:
"What I want to say is about the inheritance of your pancake skills."
"Is the inheritance of pancake craftsmanship?" Scratching the back of his head, the pancake owner also looked confused, as if he still didn't understand.
Yuan Shasha sighed and said helplessly: "Just asking you, from whom did you learn your pancake-making skills?"
"We taught ourselves. There are many tutorials online. Also, it's not difficult. We can learn how to do it after we watch it a few times."
The pancake boss said calmly.
So Yuan Shasha asked again: "Then what is the reason for your booming business?"
"It's our family's unique secret recipe, which means our sauce is different from other people's. It's a special seasoning."
"That's right." When the pancake boss said this, Yuan Shasha also followed the topic and continued:
"Then let me ask you, who did you learn this secret sauce from?"
"A master from the north," said the pancake owner.
"Then you are his apprentice?" Lu Weiwei also stepped forward and asked.
The pancake boss hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "Yes...that's right, how else would I learn how to make this kind of sauce?"
"But some people say that your skill, that is, the skill of making special sauces, was stolen." Officer Wang raised his eyebrows in a sinister manner.
This statement made the pancake owner, who looked confident just now, panic instantly.
"Is that so?" Seeing that the pancake owner didn't respond, Officer Wang continued to ask.
"Nonsense... nonsense, who is talking nonsense? It's obvious that we, the couple, came here to study and be apprentices..."
"But your master seems to have been killed by you. Is this true?"
As soon as the pancake boss finished speaking, Lu Weiwei added something.
This sentence really frightened the pancake owner. He couldn't help but take two steps back. His eyes wandered and he said, "This must be someone deliberately spreading rumors and seriously injuring us."
Seeing that Gu Chen and the others didn't respond, the pancake boss raised his head and asked, "What's wrong? Who is framed us? It must be those fellow pancake makers in Jiangnan City, right?"
"They must be jealous that my pancakes are delicious and make a lot of money, which affects their business, so they deliberately spread rumors and slander me. That must be the case, right?"
Looking at Gu Chen and seeing that Gu Chen still had no expression on his face, the pancake owner suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Gu Chen also sighed, shook his head and said, "I have given you many tips and opportunities, but you just don't tell the truth."
With a faint sigh, Gu Chen added: "The so-called teacher I heard was pushed down by your lover. In the end, he died slowly due to excessive injuries."
"Nonsense!" After hearing Gu Chen's story, the pancake owner's mood had reached the extreme. He waved his arms angrily and retorted:
"This is slander, this is slander."
"But why don't you ask us, how did we know?" Lu Weiwei couldn't stand it anymore and asked the pancake boss.
Seeing that the pancake boss was silent, Lu Weiwei also said slowly: "Perhaps only you and your wife know about this matter. Also, how did you get your skills?"
"Did your master teach it to you normally? Or did you secretly learn it by using the surveillance system secretly installed in your master's house? You should know best, right?"
Seeing that the pancake boss was trembling nervously, Lu Weiwei also sighed, walked back and forth in front of the pancake boss, shook her head and said:
"Actually, you should know that if we can learn so many things, someone must tell us the truth."
"And you also know very well that when you were discovered by the old man for secretly learning skills, he came to you to argue, but was pushed to the ground by your lover and fainted."
"You were afraid that things would get serious, so you sent the old man to the hospital and finally escaped. You should know best, right?"
Nodding silently, Gu Chen also continued: "The old man at that time was indeed still breathing and was dying."
"He finally told the situation to his son who came to see him for the last time. Because of this incident, his son formed a quarrel with you and vowed to avenge you and your wife. Do you know this?"
"I...I..." Listening to Gu Chen's narration, the pancake owner was sweating coldly and said with sobs:
"I... have heard a little bit. I heard that someone has been to our hometown to find the whereabouts of our couple. However, I am not sure if they are family members of the old man."
"That means it's true, right?" When Officer Wang saw the pancake owner, he was directly bypassed by Gu Chen, and he asked casually.
But at this moment, the pancake boss seemed to know very well that he was reported by the old man's son.
But I don’t know, who is that person?So the pancake owner looked up at Gu Chen, wanting to get the result.
Gu Chen just said calmly: "The husband of your lover's best friend is the one who wants to seek revenge from you."
"Is it him?" Hearing Gu Chen's words, the pancake owner took two steps back in fright, and said with a crazy look on his face:
"How could it be him? We have a very good relationship. We have been getting along very well over the years. We are like a family."
"Besides, he is the husband of my wife's best friend, how could he..."
Speaking of this, what does Pancake Boss seem to be thinking of?Then he suddenly realized:
"Yes, my wife's best friend was divorced before, and then she got a bigamy with him."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, the pancake owner then thought carefully and said with horror:
"Could it be that this guy knew who I was from the beginning?"
Seeing Gu Chen nodding silently, the pancake owner said with a trembling voice: "Could it be that this guy started preparing to seek revenge from me a few years ago?"
"And the reason why he married my wife's best friend was because of us as a couple?"
"He first took advantage of the opportunity at work to get close to my wife's best friend, and then tried to find a way to be with her."
"In this way, he can approach us and our husband at any time?"
Speaking of this, the pancake owner covered his chest with both hands, his whole body was shaking, his eyes were wide open, and he was mumbling to himself:
"So, this guy has wanted to take revenge on me for a long time? He has been lurking next to me, but I don't know who he is?"
"Oh my God! How could this happen? Why is this guy so vicious? How can he be so vicious?"
"You and your lover are the ones who are vicious, right?" Listening to what the pancake boss said, Officer Wang also said angrily:
"Those things you did to his father, are you any better than him? It's just a joke at fifty steps and a hundred steps at a time. You are really sleeping dragons and phoenixes."
