I am a super cop

Chapter 2962 Photography House
In the apartment room, during the interrogation of Zhang Linlin, Gu Chen discovered a very strange problem, that is, ever since that incident, Zhang Linlin has been controlled by her boyfriend.

The first thing is that the mobile phone was confiscated. In today's society, it would be very uncomfortable if you don't have a mobile phone, and life would be extremely inconvenient.

Perhaps Zhang Linlin felt guilty about her boyfriend, so she was willing to hand over her phone, but Zhang Linlin's boyfriend suddenly disappeared for a few days.

Disappearing during such a sensitive period just shows that there is something wrong with Zhang Linlin’s boyfriend. At least Gu Chen thinks that it may not be that easy to find this guy.

"What's your boyfriend's name?" Gu Chen asked.

"His name is Liu Wenjie." said Zhang Linlin.

Gu Chen handed a business card to Zhang Linlin and reminded her, "If there is any situation, remember to call us as soon as possible."

"But I don't have a cell phone," said Zhang Linlin.

"Go borrow it." Lu Weiwei also reminded.

……

……

After leaving Zhang Linlin's apartment, Gu Chen and his friends drove to a popular check-in spot. It was an old street and the houses on both sides were quite old.

The houses are painted light yellow, and the sunlight shines on the green trees on both sides. The light and shadow add a lot of literary and artistic color to this street.

So there are many tourists who come here to take photos and check in, but most of them are girls, and each of them is dressed very exquisitely.

There are also many photographers taking photos here, and many of them are traveling on the streets taking orders.

"Beautiful lady, do you want to take a photo?"

"unnecessary."

"It's better to take a picture of you with a camera than with a phone."

"It's really not necessary."

……

On the street, many photographers and tourists were still haggling over prices.

After Gu Chen and his companions parked the car, they began to look for Liu Wenjie's whereabouts based on these photographers.

Since everyone has obtained Liu Wenjie's photos, it will be much easier to search according to the photos.

But after walking back and forth on this street several times, there was still no trace of Liu Wenjie.

When we reached the middle of the street, everyone gathered there.

"So?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Yuan Shasha shook her head: "Senior Brother Wang and I went to check over there, and there was no trace of Liu Wenjie. Maybe he is not here to take pictures."

Officer Wang sighed helplessly: "Although there are many photographers here, Liu Wenjie is the only one missing."

"Maybe we can ask these photographers, maybe they know the whereabouts of Liu Wenjie." Gu Chen also reminded.

Lu Weiwei also quickly said: "Then go and ask."

Everyone immediately dispersed and started looking for the photographers to ask questions.

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei are in one group, and Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha are in another group.

When we arrived under a big tree, a photographer had just finished taking photos of the girls and was now selecting photos for them.

Mobile photographers like these on the roadside usually tow a small camping car, set up a folding table and stools, and after taking photos for people, they directly edit the photos on the computer.

Gu Chen also walked up to the man who was retouching the photo and showed him Liu Wenjie's photo:
"Have you seen this person?"

"This man? He is a photographer." said the man.

Lu Weiwei also reminded: "We know his photographer, what we mean is, where is he now?"

“I don’t know about that.” The man shook his head and continued to edit the picture on the computer.

"Hasn't he come here to take pictures recently?" Gu Chen asked again.

The man also shook his head: "I haven't seen him for several days. He usually takes pictures in this area."

"Do you come here every day?" Gu Chen asked.

The man hesitated for a moment, and then thought back: "Not necessarily. They rarely come on rainy days."

"Sometimes, he'll go somewhere else, because we have quite a few places to take photos here, it depends on the flow of people."

Hearing this, Gu Chen also squatted down and approached the man to inquire:

"Has he shown any signs of emotional instability recently?"

"Uh..." After thinking for a while, the man nodded silently: "It seems so. I always feel that he is in a bad mood recently. He has quarreled with customers over trivial matters several times."

"I don't know what's wrong with him, but he hasn't appeared in this area in the past few days. He might have gone somewhere else. You can go ask around."

"Okay, thank you." Seeing that the man knew very little, Gu Chen thanked him and left with Lu Weiwei.

Afterwards, Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei asked many photographers again, but the clues they gave were almost the same as what the man said.

It is mainly manifested in the fact that Liu Wenjie has been in a bad mood recently and seems absent-minded when doing things.

Of course Gu Chen could understand that anyone would feel bad if their girlfriend had something like this happen to her.

In fact, the relationship between the two has come to an end, but Liu Wenjie has been trying to save it.

But at the same time, Gu Chen could also see that Liu Wenjie had a strong desire for control. The fact that he first confiscated his girlfriend Zhang Linlin's mobile phone was very telling.

Although they could have broken up, he was still controlling Zhang Linlin and restricting her activities.

Perhaps Liu Wenjie wanted to trap Zhang Linlin in this way, but Zhang Linlin is also a very realistic woman.

If Liu Wenjie relied on freelance work such as photography, it would be difficult for him to provide Zhang Linlin with various material satisfaction.

Especially since Zhang Linlin is beautiful and has a hot body, as long as she knows how to act coquettishly and make some fun during live broadcasts, her income will basically not be too bad.

And it is also easy to attract the attention of wealthy people.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen felt sorry for Liu Wenjie, so he took everyone to the next activity location.

This is a park, but there is a colorful staircase in the park, which adds a lot of charm to the whole park.

After these photographers discovered the shooting angle of the colorful staircase, this place has become a popular photo-taking spot for internet celebrities.

Many tourists come here every day, which gives many photographers the opportunity to make money.

There are many freelance photographers here, and Gu Chen is also planning to look for targets here, so he asks everyone to search separately.

Gu Chen walked to a staircase and found a female photographer who kept correcting the model's shooting movements.

"Yes, yes, that's great, baby. Raise your hands a little higher. Yes, lift your hair a little. Wow, this is amazing. This light and shadow angle is just amazing, baby."

The female photographer was so excited that she took two steps back and ended up stepping directly on Gu Chen's shoes.

"Ouch, sorry." Seeing that she had stepped on the person in the back row, the female photographer quickly apologized. "It's okay." Gu Chen smiled slightly and quickly said:

"Excuse me, do you know Liu Wenjie?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chen quickly showed Liu Wenjie's photo.

The female photographer thought for a moment and said, "I think I've seen him before. He often takes pictures of his girlfriend. Yes, his girlfriend seems to be a news anchor."

"Have you seen him many times?" Gu Chen asked again.

The female photographer nodded silently: "Yes, I have seen him many times, here and in other places. Anyway, he often appears at these photo-taking spots for internet celebrities."

"Sometimes he takes pictures of guests, and sometimes he takes pictures of his girlfriend. His girlfriend has a great figure, and as a woman I envy her very much."

"Really?" Hearing the female photographer's answer, Lu Weiwei came over from the side and also smiled and said:

"Did you know that Liu Wenjie had a conflict with his girlfriend recently?"

"Uh, I'm not sure." The female photographer shook her head and smiled bitterly.

"We are very busy every day, focusing on our own photography and being around models. We usually have a group and chat in the group."

"Are you all in the same group?" Lu Weiwei asked.

The female photographer nodded silently: "Yes, the local photography group, they are all photographers, some are professional, some are just hobbies, and some are old wizards who shoot birds."

"Anyway, we usually chat in the group whenever we have time, and I've seen him popping up in the group quite often, but not recently."

"And recently, he seems to be in a bad mood. I haven't seen him for several days."

"Are you familiar with him?" Seeing this, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha hurried over.

The female photographer smiled and said, "Yes, of course I am familiar with him. When he was a beginner in photography, I took photos for customers here. Later, he often asked me some questions about photography. I can be considered as half of his teacher."

"Then can you contact this Liu Wenjie?" Yuan Shasha asked quickly.

But the female photographer shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't contact him recently. I sent him a message but he didn't reply."

"Call." Officer Wang also reminded.

The female photographer looked puzzled and asked curiously, "Who are you?"

"We are from the Furong Branch, and we have something to look for him." Gu Chen also revealed his identity.

"Oh, you are the police? Then please wait a moment." After learning the identities of several people, the female photographer quickly took out her mobile phone and started contacting Liu Wenjie.

But the phone couldn't be dialed, which made the female photographer very confused. When she couldn't get through after two calls, she had no choice but to explain:
"I called him, but his phone was turned off. I don't know where he is now."

"Do you know where he usually lives?" Gu Chen continued to ask.

The female photographer also nodded silently: "He usually lives with his girlfriend in the same apartment."

"Does he have any other place to stay?" Gu Chen asked again.

The female photographer hesitated for a moment, then slowly said: "Why don't you go to the photography house in the west of the city to look for him."

"What is the House of Photography?" Lu Weiwei expressed her confusion.

The female photographer quickly explained: "It's a place rented by some photography enthusiasts. It's quite large and has some photo studios."

"Generally speaking, if you are a freelance photographer, like me, who doesn't have his own store, you will go to the Photography House when you need to deal with some shooting problems."

"There are all kinds of background cloths and professional photography lights over there, all free for members of the Photography House to use."

Hearing this, Officer Wang asked casually, "So you guys have to pay the membership fee, right?"

"Well, 200 yuan a year is enough, and the membership fee is not much, but you can apply in advance to use the equipment and venues inside."

"I rented the venue a few times, mainly to shoot advertising samples for some businesses."

"Then who is the manager of this place?" Gu Chen asked again.

The female photographer smiled and said, "Manager? There is no manager here. Everyone pooled their money to set it up, and then it is convenient for everyone to use."

"The membership fee is used to rent the venue and depreciate some equipment. If you can't find Liu Wenjie, you can try your luck at the Photography House. It is said that Liu Wenjie is often there."

"Okay, thank you." After getting the clues provided by the female photographer, everyone got back in the car and started driving towards the west of the city.

Soon, Gu Chen found the location according to the navigation. It was a repair garage in an alley. There were repair shops all around it. Only their repair shop had a space with a sign that read "Photography House" hanging on it.

But the venue is indeed large, and at least here, many difficult shooting tasks can be completed.

Gu Chen knew that these were groups of photography enthusiasts who shared a venue.

So Gu Chen led everyone in.

There is no front desk here, but there are several cubicles equipped with printers and computers.

The workstations here are shared and available to everyone.

There are surveillance cameras installed around. At this moment, several photographers are doing their photo editing work in the cubicles.

"Excuse me, is Liu Wenjie here?" Gu Chen asked straight to the point.

A fat photographer shook his head: "Not here."

"Has he been here in the past few days?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

The fat photographer adjusted his glasses, looked up at the other photographer, and asked, "Hey, has Liu Wenjie come over in the past few days?"

"I don't think so." The tall and thin photographer who was maintaining the lighting equipment also shook his head and denied it.
"It is said that he had a conflict with his girlfriend, so it is normal that he has not appeared for a few days."

"Does he come here usually?" asked Officer Wang.

"That's about right." The tall and thin photographer nodded and said without hesitation:

"Because he said he couldn't concentrate on his work at home, so he likes to finish his work here. His girlfriend is so good-looking and has such a good figure, I can't concentrate on it either."

"Ha ha ha ha."

When everyone heard this, they also laughed.

Yuan Shasha also stepped forward and said, "Can you contact him?"

The crowd shook their heads.

The tall and thin photographer explained: "Usually everyone is busy with their own things. If there is anything to notify us, we will send a message to the group."

"There is no way for everyone to contact each other, but we have a form with contact numbers posted here."

As he was talking, the tall and thin man came over and pointed to a form on the desk and explained:

“The contact information of all members of our Photography House is here.”

"You can check it yourself. There should be Liu Wenjie's phone number. Oh, yes, this is it. I found it."
