I am a super cop

Chapter 2794 Outdoor Search
After being called, the man named Xiao He also stood up and said, "I can lead the way."

"Have you been there?" Gu Chen asked.

"Yes." Xiao He nodded silently, and said without hesitation: "At that time, a foreign customer came here, and Mr. Zhuang asked me to drive them there for hiking."

"The three of us stayed in the cabin for one night, and then started hiking in the mountains the next day. On the way back, we stayed in the cabin in the mountains for another night."

"I know the details of the situation there, but the cabin is not well maintained, so the surrounding environment is not very good. However, the decoration inside is quite good."

After a pause, Xiao He continued, "But I'm not sure if I can get there now."

"What do you mean?" Officer Wang was also very curious when he heard it.

Xiao He also quickly explained: "It has been raining heavily these days, and the road leading to the cabin is actually a mud road."

"And to get to the cabin, you need to cross several rivers. Some of the small wooden bridges on the rivers are recommended. Once there is heavy rain, the river water will easily wash back to the bridge."

"We need to wade across the water. Last time we went there, we asked someone to repair the small bridge in advance. This time, I'm not sure if the small bridge we used before can still be crossed?"

"Then can we get across by walking and wading?" Yuan Shasha asked.

"Yes, but if the current is strong, you may be submerged up to your waist, and the current can be very turbulent, so you will need some professional outdoor ropes."

"That's no problem. We can go prepare some equipment," said Lu Weiwei.

"Well, going there is a bit dangerous now. I want to make this clear in advance. Also, you will need some professional outdoor equipment."

"Okay, we'll provide it." As soon as Xiao He finished speaking, Lu Weiwei also agreed.

Xiao He continued, "Prepare three days of dry food and water."

"Okay." Lu Weiwei continued to nod.

Officer Wang also asked impatiently: "When can we set off?"

"Once we have all the equipment, we can go. I know the way." Xiao He said.

Officer Wang immediately replied, "That's no problem. I'll take care of the equipment. You just wait here."

As soon as Officer Wang finished speaking, he took out his cell phone and started making contact.

Soon, the call was connected, and Officer Wang said with a smile: "Hello, Lao Liu? I'm Lao Wang. Yes, yes, yes, I want to borrow five sets of outdoor equipment from you. Yes, professional equipment. I need to wade through the river. Please prepare ropes and other equipment for five people. Yes, and backpacks. Please prepare outdoor backpacks for five people for three days."

"Anyway, you have a lot of equipment over there. Yes, if you have any, please send it to us now. Also, please prepare some dry food and water for us, all for outdoor use. No need for tents or anything like that. Okay, um, I understand."

"When you are ready, I will send you an address and you can send it here directly for me. We will leave soon to find someone and handle the case. Yes, yes, okay, thank you. I will treat you to dinner later. OK, OK..."

After some pleasantries, Officer Wang hung up the phone with a smile.

But the moment he hung up the phone, Officer Wang's expression immediately became serious again and he said:

"I have asked someone to prepare the things. They will be delivered here soon. Then we can set off directly."

"But I haven't even prepared outdoor clothes. You can't let me go outdoors in a suit, right?" Xiao He hurried to explain when he heard it.

But Officer Wang waved his hand and said, "For outdoor equipment, including outdoor clothes, shoes, etc., just tell me the size and I'll send it over directly. I'll have them prepare it and send it over together."

"Is this possible?" Xiao He seemed very puzzled when he heard what Officer Wang said.

Officer Wang frowned and said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No, if you can prepare it, I don't mind."

"That's all, just tell me the size of your clothes and shoes," said Officer Wang.

Various sizes were also registered. After Officer Wang made the statistics, he sent a message directly to the friend named Lao Liu.

After waiting in the villa for about 40 minutes, Officer Wang's cell phone suddenly rang.

Officer Wang immediately pressed the answer button and heard a rough man's voice coming from the phone: "Old Wang, come out and get your equipment. I'm at the entrance of this community."

"Okay, just come in. I'll tell you the address. Tell the guard that you're here to deliver the equipment. OK." Officer Wang also communicated for a while and hung up the phone.

Then he stood up and said to everyone: "I have prepared everything and can leave at any time."

"Is it so efficient?" The lady was also very shocked when she heard it.

It only took 40 minutes from arranging the equipment to having it delivered to my doorstep.

Officer Wang also snorted and laughed, then he explained to everyone: "My friend's family runs an outdoor equipment store. He has his own warehouse full of outdoor supplies, and his business is very big."

"I rented some outdoor equipment from him, and he could get them all in an instant, because he also does outdoor equipment rental business."

"So that's how it is?" Xiao He suddenly realized it after hearing it.

Just as everyone was talking, a fat bald man, with the help of two assistants, came to the door carrying various equipment.

The villa's nanny quickly opened the iron gate, and the bald fat man directly instructed two assistants to place the equipment at the entrance of the living room.

So he greeted Officer Wang again: "Old Wang, long time no see."

"Old Liu, why have you gained weight again? I remember you weren't this fat before?" Officer Wang said jokingly.

"I haven't gone out for exercise in a while. Isn't it normal to gain some weight? Hahaha."

The two of them also hugged each other when they met, making it like a meeting between old friends.

So Officer Wang quickly introduced him to Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, let me introduce you to this guy, Old Liu, who likes to play outdoors. We've been friends for many years."

"No need for introduction, this should be Gu Chen, the youngest director of Furong Branch? I know you. Old Wang always praises you in front of me." Fat Old Liu seemed to know Gu Chen quite well.

Gu Chen also shook hands with him and thanked him: "Thank you so much this time for helping us prepare outdoor equipment for five people so quickly."

"It's no big deal. You are going to handle a case outside. I will definitely equip you with these equipments. They are also matched according to Lao Wang's requirements."

At this point, Lao Liu also walked in front of these equipments and began to introduce them: "Especially these ropes, they are all professional, they can be of great help to you in crossing the river."

"Also, it can be used for rock climbing. It's very sturdy, and all kinds of locks are provided for you."

"I have prepared your dry food and water for the next three days."

"You are so thoughtful." Lu Weiwei took one look and smiled.

Lao Liu also grinned: "Aren't you going to investigate a case? Lao Wang only asked me to prepare five sets of equipment. Actually, I want to go with you, but I have to fly to Guangzhou tomorrow, so I can't go with you." "Hahaha."

A few people joked around in the living room, and after Lao Liu greeted everyone, he left with his men.

As for the equipment that was left behind, everyone quickly changed into clothes according to their own sizes, using the rooms of the noble lady’s house.

When the five of them walked out of the room and stood together, the nanny at home was also very surprised: "Once you put on your outdoor gear, you feel like a model team."

"Thank you, but we have to go find Zhuang Hu now." Lu Weiwei responded casually and looked at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen looked at Xiao He and asked, "Can we set off now?"

"Sure." It seems that you have even prepared all the outdoor equipment, so I really can't find any reason not to go.

So he readily agreed.

We all went outside, threw our equipment into the trunk, and drove off.

……

……

He Wenjun in the car frowned and stared out the window, his mood was very complicated.

Seeing this, Officer Wang, who was sitting next to him, asked him curiously, "Are you worried about something?"

"No." He Wenjun shook his head and explained, "I'm afraid my guess is wrong. What if Mr. Zhuang is not in the cabin in Nanshan Forest Park? Wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

"He Wenjun, just remember that as long as there are any possible clues, we need to verify them. Even if your President Zhuang is not in that cabin, we will not blame you."

"At least, after we go to the field to investigate, we can rule out this possibility."

Gu Chen finished speaking and continued, "But then again, the first thing you thought of was the cabin in Nanshan Forest Park, which means you subconsciously believe that Zhuang Hu is here."

"Moreover, as far as we know, you are Zhuang Hu's most trusted assistant and also the confidant that Zhuang Hu has tried hard to cultivate."

"Many times, your subconscious mind also represents Zhuang Hu's subconscious mind."

"Yes." Facing Gu Chen's words, He Wenjun, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, nodded silently and said without hesitation:

"My thoughts often also represent the thoughts of our President Zhuang."

"At that time, I had just come to the company for an internship. Because I was quite smart, I was quickly noticed by our CEO Zhuang."

"Afterwards, Mr. Zhuang arranged for me to be his assistant. It was from that time that many of Mr. Zhuang's matters began to be handed over to me."

"Because most of the time, I am Mr. Zhuang's right-hand man, and our ways of thinking are highly unified."

"Mr. Zhuang is old after all. Oftentimes, he has many ideas that he cannot handle, so he hands them over to me."

"Most of the time, I am the one who runs errands for Mr. Zhuang and helps him realize his ideas."

"So your subconscious mind is very important and has strong reference value." said Lu Weiwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"I hope so." At this moment, He Wenjun seemed unable to explain why.

When the vehicle arrived at a village, He Wenjun reminded:
“Vehicles can only drive up to this village, so we can only walk from here to the forest.”

"I understand. I'll park the car in front of the house over there." Gu Chen said.

When the vehicle stopped at the door of a house, everyone got out to get their equipment, but found that the village seemed too quiet.

Officer Wang curiously asked He Wenjun: "Isn't there anyone living here?"

"There are several elderly people living here." He Wenjun put on his backpack and explained:

"The young people in the village all work in the city, so the elderly are reluctant to leave because the scenery and environment here are nice and it is more comfortable to live here."

"Many elderly people have lived here all their lives and don't like the noise of the city, so living here for retirement can prolong their life."

"That's true. Living in a place like this, it's hard not to live a long life," said Yuan Shasha.

After everyone had packed up their equipment, Gu Chen walked to the door of an inhabited house and saw an old lady sitting at the door basking in the sun. So Gu Chen hurried over and asked the old lady:
"Old man, old man."

Seeing that the old man was dumbfounded and didn't seem to react much, Gu Chen walked closer and continued to communicate with the old man: "Old man, can you hear me?"

Seeing Gu Chen approaching, the old lady who was basking in the sun finally reacted and said, "Ah? What did you say?"

"Has anyone gone into the mountains in the past two days?" Gu Chen asked.

"I'm not sure." The old lady shook her head.

"I see some vehicles parked in this village. Are they all from your village?" Gu Chen asked again.

The old lady still shook her head: "I don't know, there are cars coming to the village occasionally, but they are basically going to hike in the mountains."

"But not many people go hiking in the mountains here, so there won't be many. I'm not sure about what you're talking about."

Glancing at the direction of the forest, the old lady continued, "People outside usually park their cars at the entrance of the village and go directly into the mountains, so I'm not very clear about it and don't pay much attention to it."

"Sometimes, those who go into the mountains will come to my house to buy some things, such as eggs. Some people even buy some native chickens from my house and take them up with them after preparing them."

"Some of them would come back and use my bathroom to take a hot shower or something. Of course, they would pay me, but sometimes I wouldn't take their money."

The old lady kept talking about this and that, and seemed to be chatting with Gu Chen, with no intention of ending.

Of course, Gu Chen also quickly captured some important information, that is, there are generally not many people coming here to hike, and they come in intermittent numbers.

There may be a few people coming today, a few people coming tomorrow, and no one will come in a few days. But after a week, a few more people will come.

As more and more people have gone hiking in recent years, the villagers have become accustomed to it.

She wouldn't pay too much attention to these things, but when Gu Chen asked, the old lady still shared the specific circumstances of the past few days with Gu Chen.

"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude, Gu Chen returned to the crowd and said:

"Old man, I don't know if the cars parked at the entrance of the village were left by people who went hiking in the mountains, but do you know which car belongs to your boss?"

Facing Gu Chen's question, He Wenjun shook his head: "Not even one."
