I am a super cop

Chapter 2645 Short-term Tenant

"A white SUV with a license plate from Xiangnan City and a number ending in 669. Its current location is... the underground parking lot of Lvyuan Community, Chengnan Fengqing Street."

When Gu Chen and everyone else heard the specific location reported by He Junchao, they were stunned.

Green source community?

Underground Parking Lot?
Isn’t this the neighborhood where we all live now?
"Then... then what?" Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively:

“What is our neighborhood called now?”

"What's your name?" After hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Officer Wang looked at Zhao Junlong and asked.

"Green...Green Source Community." Zhao Junlong was also surprised.

"So the car is in the neighborhood where we live?" Lu Weiwei felt that this was the first time that finding a target was so easy.

Zhao Junlong continued to nod: "Although... although I don't know why those people parked their cars in this community, but I swear, I have never seen them at all."

"I have no idea why they appeared in this neighborhood. If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance footage."

"Brother He." Just as Zhao Junlong finished speaking, Gu Chen continued to ask on the phone: "What's going on?"

"It really has nothing to do with him." He Junchao's reply came immediately on the phone:
"That group of people have been renting in this community for a few days. According to the surveillance footage, they have indeed not had any contact, but that doesn't mean they haven't had any contact."

"Have you contacted each other?" After listening to He Junchao's explanation, Gu Chen looked at Zhao Junlong.

"I swear to God, I have never seen them. I just know them, but I don't know how they ended up living in this neighborhood. I also don't know why they came here."

Feeling like he couldn't clear himself from the matter even if he jumped into the Yellow River, Zhao Junlong suddenly became anxious and wanted to distance himself from the matter.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Just take us there." Gu Chen couldn't completely believe what Zhao Junlong said, so he had to take Zhao Junlong with him.

Let's see if Zhao Junlong will reveal his true colors when he meets this group of people later.

Seeing that he now had no choice, if he wanted to prove his innocence, he could only follow Gu Chen and the others.

After thinking it over, Zhao Junlong could only sigh helplessly:

"Okay, I'll go with you."

……

……

After leaving Zhao Junlong's apartment, everyone, led by him, went directly to the underground parking lot downstairs in the community.

Based on the clues provided by He Junchao, everyone quickly found the white SUV in a corner.

Gu Chen walked around the vehicle half a circle, then touched the hood of the vehicle with his fingers.

"The dust is so thick? This car hasn't been used for a long time."

"That's for sure. These days, these people haven't left the community," said He Junchao on the phone.

"Senior Brother He, what else have you discovered?" Gu Chen asked again.

"There are not many clues. We just know that the car is parked here. I found that these people have never driven out." said He Junchao on the phone.

"Senior Brother Gu, let's go ask the property management. Maybe they know the situation." Yuan Shasha said on the side.

After thinking it over, Gu Chen could only agree: "Okay, let's go over and take a look."

……

……

When he arrived at the entrance of the parking lot, Gu Chen found an old man in security uniform sitting in the duty room.

The old man was drinking a cup of wolfberry tea and leisurely listening to a detective novel on his mobile phone.

For a moment, I didn't notice that Gu Chen and others were standing outside.

"Uncle, uncle." Perhaps because the volume of the audio book on the old man's mobile phone was too loud, the old man didn't pay attention for a moment.

Knowing what Lu Weiwei had shouted, he finally reacted and asked immediately, "What...what happened?"

"Do you know the owner of the car with the Xiangnan City license plate?" Lu Weiwei asked.

The old man narrowed his eyes, stood up quickly, glanced outside, and asked again: "Which car are you talking about?"

"That one." Lu Weiwei said, pointing at the off-road vehicle not far away.

"Let me take a look." The old man did not hesitate and followed everyone towards the off-road vehicle.

But when he arrived in front of the vehicle, the old man suddenly realized what was going on and quickly said, "I know this car. It was driven by five men with foreign accents."

"It seems like they just moved into our neighborhood recently. I'm familiar with all the vehicles coming in and out of here."

"They live here?" Gu Chen asked.

"Well, maybe, because our community is across from that Fengqing Street. Many outsiders rent houses in the community across from us, so the composition of our residents is quite complex, and many of them are outsiders."

“Some are renting long term, some are renting short term, and some are buying a house here.”

“As for these people, I guess they might be here to do business. Maybe their business is in the auxiliary police, so they rent a house here.”

"Then do you know where these people live?" Officer Wang quickly stepped forward and asked.

"Wait a minute." The old man hesitated for a moment, then took out his cell phone and scrolled down.

I quickly found one of the dialog boxes and immediately replied: "They live in Unit 9, Building 202, . They came to us to apply for the door card."

"I have all the records here. At that time, they left in a hurry, so I asked them to come to me to get the access card when they came back."

"This dialog box is still there. Luckily I didn't delete it."

"Thank you." With the clues given by the old man, no one dared to delay and immediately started walking towards Building 9.

When everyone came to the door according to the clues, there was no movement inside.

Logically speaking, if the vehicle is here, then the people should not have gone out.

So everyone started knocking on the door, but there was no response.

Gu Chen hesitated and thought for a moment, "Maybe these people are really doing business across the street as the old man said, so they parked their cars here."

"I don't think so." Lu Weiwei crossed her arms and said thoughtfully:

"This should be their first time in Jiangnan City. They are here to discuss business, so there is no need to rent a house in Lvyuan Community, right?"

"Then who knows? What is the purpose of these people coming here?" Gao Hu also expressed his doubt.

But He Qian on the side said slowly: "Maybe, the purpose of their coming here is related to Xu Yaxuan."

"After all, Xu Yaxuan's father had a good relationship with them. Now that Xu Yaxuan's father has died suddenly, these people may need to explain."

"No matter what, we must find these people first." Gu Chen also expressed his attitude.

But at this moment, a middle-aged woman carrying vegetables walked up the stairs. She was startled by the people in the corridor and asked curiously: "Who... are you looking for?" "Do you live here?" Gu Chen asked, pointing to the door opposite.

"Yes... yes." The middle-aged woman was already taking out the key, but she paused briefly.

"Do you know the person living opposite you?" Officer Wang asked again.

"I don't know him." The middle-aged woman shook her head and said without hesitation: "Maybe he's a new tenant?"

"Because the house we had here always had a new tenant. I guess it might be a new tenant."

"It seemed like a group of grown men, whom I didn't know. I only met them once in the corridor. They even asked me to mop and clean the house."

"Have these people gone out in the past few days?" Gao Hu asked again.

"Well, that's strange." The middle-aged woman seemed to realize that something was wrong and was thoughtful:
"After these people cleaned the room and moved in, at first, they could still hear the noise from next door every day."

"But these days, the room has been eerily quiet."

"There are obviously a group of people living here, but every night, there is no movement at all."

"What about during the day?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

"There was no movement during the day." The middle-aged woman immediately said.

"There is no noise during the day or at night. It doesn't make sense. Five grown men live here. Don't they talk to each other normally?" Gu Chen expressed his doubts.

After all, five people live in one house, so talking is inevitable.

So according to common sense, it should be very lively next door.

But in the words of this middle-aged woman, the resident next door seemed very mysterious.

"Did they tell us what they were doing here?" Gu Chen thought about it again and again, and continued to ask the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman thought for a few seconds and then said thoughtfully: "I'm not sure, I just remember that they all seemed to have foreign accents."

"And when she spoke to me, she was also very polite."

"At first they looked big and strong, and looked like rough people, but when they spoke, they were very polite."

"I lent them a mop, and they turned around and bought me some fruit."

After thinking for a while, the middle-aged woman continued, "They seem to want to live here for a long time, so they want to have a good relationship with their neighbors. I think that's the case."

"Okay." It seemed that these were the only conclusions that could be drawn from the middle-aged woman.

Gu Chen didn't ask for too much. He took the initiative to give up his seat and opened the door for the middle-aged woman to enter the house.

The middle-aged woman seemed to have some impression of Gu Chen and the others. When she opened the door, she turned to look at Gu Chen and asked weakly:

"You are that...that celebrity policeman in Jiangnan City, right?"

"Oh, I'm Gu Chen from the Furong Branch." Seeing the middle-aged woman suddenly asking, Gu Chen quickly replied.

"Yes, you are that Gu Chen. I thought you looked familiar. Are you here to handle a case?"

"Well, I guess so." Gu Chen continued to reply.

But at this moment, the middle-aged woman began to look a little nervous, and lowered her voice and asked Gu Chen:

"Well... well, Officer Gu, have those people on the other side that you're looking for committed any crime?"

"Not really." Seeing that the woman had some misunderstanding, Gu Chen quickly explained:
"We came to them to find out something. This matter is very important."

"But we can't find these people at the moment. We only know that they seem to be living in this room."

"Oh, they may still be in the room." Seeing Gu Chen say this, the middle-aged woman also hurriedly said.

"What is the basis for your feeling that they are in the house?" Seeing the woman's opinion, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask another question.

"From my feeling, I feel like they haven't gone out at all." The middle-aged woman said truthfully.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately turned to the door opposite.

But since we knocked on the door for a long time, there was no response from inside.

So everyone was helpless, and Officer Wang asked the middle-aged woman: "Well, do you have the phone number of the owner of the house opposite? Does the owner have a spare key?"

"Yes, yes, please wait a moment." Because I felt that the person living next door might not be a good person.

Therefore, the middle-aged woman was very panicked at the moment, and wanted to quickly help the police to solve the problem, so she took out her mobile phone and looked for contact information.

Soon, the middle-aged woman found the phone number and started dialing it immediately.

After a while, a man's voice was heard on the phone, and the two of them started communicating quickly.

The middle-aged woman did not seem to be from Jiangnan City and spoke with a foreign accent.

Not long after, the woman hung up the phone and quickly reported to Gu Chen, "Wait a moment, the owner will be here soon. The house opposite them and the one I'm living in now have the same landlord."

"A landlord? Then you are also a tenant?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"Yes, I have lived here for several years and I run a snack shop nearby," said the middle-aged woman.

"Okay." Seeing this situation, everyone stopped asking questions.

About ten minutes later, a tall, thin, middle-aged man came over from downstairs with heavy footsteps.

Seeing Gu Chen and the others standing there, he suddenly became a little nervous and took out the key unconsciously:
"Hello, police comrade, I am the landlord here." The man also greeted Gu Chen and others politely.

"How much do you know about the tenants of this room?" Gu Chen said, pointing at the door.

"I'm not sure, maybe they are doing business? They said they were doing business, and they looked rich, so I think they should be doing business."

When they reached the door, the middle-aged man told the truth.

So Lu Weiwei asked again: "Are they renting for a long term or a short term?"

"For a short term, you can pay one month in deposit and one month in rent. Of course, you can also pay one month in deposit and three months in rent. But if you rent for a long time, the rent will be cheaper."

“But these few people seemed to be here for business, so they rented a short-term place.”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man had already found the key and handed it to Gu Chen, saying, "This is the key to the door."

"Thank you." After getting the key, Gu Chen walked to the door cautiously, took a deep breath, then took out the key and inserted it directly into the keyhole.

With a "click" sound, the door was quickly opened.

However, at this moment, Gu Chen had already vaguely smelled a pungent odor.

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, as if they all felt something was wrong.
