I am a super cop

Chapter 2921: Single Person Arrested
Hu Lei's words actually made him feel quite aggrieved, as if he had been plotted against from the beginning to the end.

But now he is facing a group of ruthless people, and only by compromising can he have a chance of survival.

Gu Chen thought for a few seconds and asked Hu Lei, "Where does Zhuang Qing live?"

"I don't know." Hu Lei shook his head. "They wouldn't let me know because they were afraid I would tell on them, so they held Zhuang Qing hostage."

"No." Hearing Hu Lei say this, Lu Weiwei also said unhappily:
"You don't know anything, what are you doing? Zhuang Qing is your girlfriend, are you so confident in leaving her to them?"

I feel like Hu Lei is such a coward.

But Hu Lei didn't think so, and said calmly: "They won't do anything to Zhuang Qing."

"And Zhuang Qing is not my girlfriend. She is just an ordinary friend of mine. We are just getting what we need."

"Hu Lei, do you still have any shame? Zhuang Qing was willing to participate in the kidnapping for you. Do you know how much courage it takes?"

"Doesn't she know what she's getting into? She took such a big risk to help you, but you say she's not your girlfriend? Just an ordinary friend?"

Lu Weiwei really couldn't stand it anymore, because what Hu Lei did made her feel that he was not even a scumbag, but the worst of the worst.

As if realizing that what he said was indeed quite heartless, Hu Lei slowly said:
"Although Zhuang Qing is helping me and I am very grateful to her, there is no love between me and her."

"I don't care about your affairs. I just want to know how to find Zhuang Qing?" Gu Chen continued to ask.

Because in Gu Chen's opinion, if he finds Zhuang Qing, there is a high probability of finding Zhao Wenli.

Because of these two people, fate seems to have been linked together.

Moreover, this group of people went to great lengths to kidnap Zhao Wenli, it must be because Zhao Wenli was hiding some unspeakable secrets.

And the mastermind behind the scenes will not take any extreme actions until the goal is achieved.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to kidnap Zhao Wenli.

Hu Lei scratched his head with both hands and said thoughtfully: "I'm not sure, but it must be near the Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort."

"They will definitely find a secret house to hide her. They want to use this as a bargaining chip to threaten me."

After a pause, Hu Lei also sighed and said: "Although I am not a good-for-nothing, sometimes, I feel that Zhuang Qing has paid so much for me, and I can't bear it."

"So I don't want to betray them, otherwise Zhuang Qing might really be in danger."

"If we don't find out where Zhuang Qing is hiding now, she will be in real danger. They have set a trap for you from the very beginning. How can you defeat them?" Yuan Shasha said unhappily.

Hu Lei nodded silently: "But these are all I know."

"Tell me the identities of those people." Gu Chen said.

"They may be using fake identities." Hu Lei also quickly reminded.

So Gu Chen asked again: "You can always remember their appearance, right?"

"I remember this." Hu Lei nodded silently, and said without hesitation: "I remember their appearance."

"Okay." Seeing that Hu Lei remembered the faces of several people, Gu Chen quickly took out a 2B pencil and reminded Hu Lei:
"Give me a detailed description of their appearances. The more detailed the better."

"Uh, okay." Seeing Gu Chen's serious expression, Hu Lei nodded silently, and then began to describe the specific appearance of that thing.

Gu Chen, based on Hu Lei's description, began to sketch the appearances of several people.

When Gu Chen drew the first man's appearance and asked Hu Lei to confirm it, Hu Lei was stunned and looked at Gu Chen in disbelief: "Yes, he looks like this."

"Is there anything that needs to be modified?" Gu Chen asked.

After Hu Lei confirmed it again and again, he shook his head and said, "No, no need to modify it. It's just like this. It looks exactly like it."

"Okay, next one." Gu Chen didn't waste time talking to him and immediately started sketching the next one.

After Gu Chen and Hu Lei communicated and confirmed repeatedly, Gu Chen sketched out the appearances of all those people and asked Hu Lei to confirm them one by one.

Hu Lei was also stunned by Gu Chen's superb sketching skills.

He couldn't help but give Gu Chen a thumbs up and said, "Comrade police officer, you are amazing. It's a pity that you don't become a painter with your level."

"Shut up." Seeing Hu Lei start to flatter, Officer Wang beside him also reminded him:
"Hu Lei, you'd better think about it carefully now to see if there is anything you missed. Don't give me any bullshit about the rest."

"Okay...ok." Feeling that the middle-aged policeman in front of him was fierce, Hu Lei decided to quit while he was ahead and started to think about it again.

In the end, he told Gu Chen and others everything he knew.

……

……

After returning to the office, Gu Chen immediately gave the sketches of these men to He Junchao, asking He Junchao to use big data comparison to check their true identities.

Since Hu Lei was previously photographed with a group of people who seemed to be stealing a car, Gu Chen could not be sure that those were the people who kidnapped Zhao Wenli.

With Hu Lei's oral statement, Gu Chen described the appearance of these people, and compared it with the surveillance footage from He Junchao's side, which cleared up everyone's suspicions.

"It's not this group of people, not the group of people who follow Hu Lei, but another group of people."

"And the people in these surveillance videos are just Hu Lei's drinking buddies, but there is one person among them who is highly consistent with the person in your sketch."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Junchao immediately found the surveillance footage of the man and said:
"That's the guy. He's the only one that fits your sketch."

"Check his identity." said Officer Wang.

"Wait a moment." He Junchao was not in a hurry and began to match seriously.

Soon, the man's true identity was found in the database.

"It's him." He Junchao took a deep breath and quickly explained to everyone: "This man is Xu Gang, the security manager of a high-end club."

"Can we find out this person's network of relationships?" Gu Chen asked.

"I'll try, but from the surveillance, he basically goes between two places, either staying in high-end clubs or at home."

"But he was not at home recently. It is obvious that he participated in the kidnapping of Zhao Wenli."

"And I suspect that he was the one who brought the other people here."

"Because according to your interrogation of Hu Lei, it seems that this group of people wanted to drag Hu Lei into the water from the beginning."

"Check Xu Gang's whereabouts. Also, check the area around Wolong Valley to see if there are any traces of Xu Gang appearing there."

"And send Xu Gang's photo to the police at Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort, asking them to assist in the investigation and find out where Xu Gang is."

"I understand." Based on Gu Chen's request, He Junchao started to make contact.

……

...Everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

It was not until that evening that the police station at Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort called.

Gu Chen swiped the answer button, and the other party directly told him his identity: "Hello, Director Gu, I am Gao Ming, the director of the Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort Police Station. We have helped you find the person you asked us to assist in investigating."

"Found it?" Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Xu Gang was arrested, and quickly asked, "What about the other people who were with Xu Gang?"

"We are still investigating, because this person was alone in a hotel in a resort area, so when we checked, we only found him," said Gao Ming.

Gu Chen was silent for a few seconds, and reminded Gao Ming: "The missing persons we are looking for, Zhuang Qing and Zhao Wenli, are very likely nearby. I hope you can increase your efforts and check the surrounding area."

"It would be best if we could find these two people."

"I understand what you mean. Our police station will fully cooperate with you. The rescue team here has communicated with us before. They found that this group of people had signs of activities in the nearby forest."

"Because when our Wolong Valley was not yet developed, there were many cabins in the mountains, and the locations were relatively scattered. I suspect that the person you are looking for is likely to be hidden in one of the cabins by their accomplices."

"But because the locations are scattered, it will be difficult to find them, so it will take some time."

"What about this Xu Gang?" Gu Chen asked.

"We are still interrogating him. He is a tough guy and only admits that he just wanted to come here for vacation."

"Of course, we will continue to follow up and notify you as soon as there is any situation."

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble Director Gao."

Gu Chen also had a brief conversation with Gao Ming, and then they both hung up the phone.

Gu Chen leaned back in his chair, hoping that Gao Ming could find a way to get Xu Gang to speak.

After all, these kidnappers are being arrested one by one.

The next morning, when Gu Chen just arrived at the office, Gao Ming called.

Seeing this, Gu Chen quickly swiped the answer button: "Director Gao, how is it?"

“This guy has confessed.”

"You mean, Xu Gang confessed?" Gu Chen was also ecstatic.

Gao Ming also smiled and said, "It wasn't easy. We interrogated him all night long. He couldn't stand it anymore and finally confessed that Zhuang Qing and Zhao Wenli were currently being held in a small cabin in the mountains."

“And the other few people are currently watching them at the other end of the cabin.”

"Great." Seeing that they had found Zhao Wenli and Zhuang Qing, Gu Chen finally let go of his worries and said with a faint smile:

"Then please help us find these two missing persons, Director Gao."

"No problem, just leave it to us. After all, it is in our jurisdiction." Gao Ming was still very happy.

After a brief conversation, Gu Chen hung up the phone and quickly said to Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha in the office:
"According to the Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort Police Station, the arrested Xu Gang has confessed. Zhao Wenli and Zhuang Xue are currently being held in a small wooden house in the mountains by several other men."

"We are going to Wolong Valley now. Everyone, pack up and set off quickly."

"Good." Seeing that Gu Chen had found a breakthrough, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

So everyone simply cleaned up the table and immediately followed Gu Chen downstairs.

Everyone started the car and headed straight to the Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort Police Station.

……

……

After driving for two and a half hours, Gu Chen drove the car into the compound of Wolong Valley Hot Spring Resort Police Station.

At this moment, Gu Chen realized that there were many police cars around.

It is not difficult to see from the situation that Director Gao Ming requested support and many units began to assist in the arrest in the mountains.

Since there were no parking spaces in the compound, Gu Chen could only park his car in an empty space at the door.

Just as Gu Chen got off the car, two young police officers also walked out of the office building.

Upon seeing Gu Chen and the others, one of the second-level police inspectors quickly stepped forward to greet them: "Hello, Director Gu, the director notified you that you will be here today, so we two asked you to receive you."

"Thank you." Gu Chen thanked him, and then quickly looked around and asked the second-level police inspector: "Where are the others?"

"They've all gone to arrest people, so they asked the two of us to stay at the police station and keep an eye on Xu Gang."

"Where is Xu Gang?" asked Officer Wang beside him.

"He's being held in our office," said another young trainee police officer.

"Take us there first." said Officer Wang.

"Okay, please follow us." The second-level police superintendent didn't say anything more and directly led everyone to the office building.

After walking through the corridor, everyone came to an office.

When the second-level police inspector opened the door, he found that Xu Gang was being held there.

Seeing so many police officers suddenly coming in, Xu Gang was also stunned for a moment, and quickly stood up:

"Xu Gang, who is your mastermind behind the scenes?" Gu Chen didn't want to waste time with him and asked straight to the point.

Because although Gao Ming used the method of interrogating Xu Gang all night long, he eventually made Xu Gang reveal the whereabouts of Zhao Wenli and Zhuang Qing.

However, Xu Gang did not reveal who was behind the scenes.

Facing the questions from Gu Chen and the others, Xu Gang lowered his head and said calmly:
"I don't know who he is."

"How come you don't know who he is? Aren't you working for him?" Yuan Shasha asked directly.

Xu Gang continued to shake his head: "I have never met this person. He contacted me on his own initiative. I don't know who he is, but he was very quick to give me money. Every time he told me the address, he let me go and pick up the money myself."

"Besides, he was a very cautious person and always hid a bag of cash at the agreed location."

"From this point, it is not difficult to see that this person's anti-reconnaissance ability is quite strong. At least he won't let me know who he is."

"So you've never seen it?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Xu Gang shook his head: "Never seen him, but because of my job, I may have given out business cards to many people, so I feel that he must have found me through my business card."

"And that person knows me very well, knows my hobbies, knows that I like money, and that I am ruthless in doing things."
