I am a super cop

Chapter 2973 The aftermath
Gu Chen was a little worried about Officer Wang's safety, so he quickly reminded him, "Brother Wang, you have to be careful."

On the phone, Officer Wang laughed and said quickly, "It's okay. I've caught this guy. I'll be back soon. Wait for me."

"Okay." Seeing that Officer Wang had caught the escaped fat man, Gu Chen could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Inside the scrap factory, an ambulance had already arrived, and medical staff began to perform simple wound treatment on Zhao Xiaomin and began to observe Zhao Xiaomin's specific condition.

During the process, Officer Wang also came over from a corner with the fat man who was already handcuffed.

Seeing this, Gu Chen also hurried over to inquire about the situation: "Brother Wang, are you okay? Are you injured?"

"Damn, I fell down, but it's okay." Officer Wang raised his arm, which also had some scratches.

At this moment, the fat man had been detained by two police officers who came to support him.

Gu Chen reminded Officer Wang, "The ambulance is still here, go over and treat the wound."

"Okay." Officer Wang took two steps forward, then turned back and said, "Then I'll leave this guy to you."

"No problem." Gu Chen also nodded silently.

Then Gu Chen walked up to the fat man. When the fat man saw Gu Chen, he didn't dare to look at him directly and could only avoid his gaze.

"Why are you running?" Gu Chen asked him.

"I...I..." The fat man was too embarrassed to speak.

Gu Chen pointed at Zhao Xiaomin who was receiving emergency treatment and said, "You are the one who locked her up here, right?"

"No, no." Seeing Gu Chen say this, the fat man quickly denied it: "I didn't lock her up here. It was my fellow villager who did it."

"Your fellow villager?" Gu Chen frowned.

The fat man nodded silently and said without hesitation:
"Yes, this was all done by my fellow villager. He did it all. It has nothing to do with me. I know nothing about it."

The fat man obviously wanted to clear himself of the matter, but his abnormal behavior just now and his sudden escape were already an admission of guilt.

Lu Weiwei came over from the side and said unhappily: "If it has nothing to do with you, then why are you running? I asked you why you are running?"

"me……"

As if he was unable to defend himself, the fat man lowered his head and choked up as he said:

"Actually, all this really had nothing to do with me. I only found out about it later."

"Speak clearly." Yuan Shasha also came over.

The fat man lowered his head and said slowly: "My fellow villager came here to seek refuge with me. I originally thought that he really wanted to do business here, so I was kind enough to introduce him to some connections."

"Besides, I even let him live with me because I had an emergency at home during those days, so I went back to my hometown."

"But when I came back here, I found something was wrong, because my fellow villager always went to the back, saying he was feeding wild dogs. I was very curious, where did the wild dogs come from?"

"But the road is not easy to walk on. You know it yourself. It's quite difficult to walk on, so I usually don't go there."

"But my fellow villager went there in a special situation. I felt something was wrong at the time. I felt that my fellow villager must be hiding something from me."

"So, when he ran to the back to feed the wild dogs, I secretly followed him and discovered this secret."

"Did you find out that he locked people up here?" Yuan Shasha asked.

The fat man nodded silently: "Yes, I found out that he had locked someone up here. I was completely stunned at the time. I really didn't expect that he would actually kidnap someone."

At this point, the fat man sighed helplessly and continued to explain: "I wanted to call the police at the time, but my fellow villagers advised me not to do so."

"Because the hiding place is in my scrapyard, if he gets caught, he will say I'm an accomplice and involve me as well."

With a heavy sigh, the fat man was also very helpless and continued to explain: "I was very angry at the time, and I asked him why he did that?"

"I said I have no grudge against you, and I have helped you before. Why do you want to harm me?"

"But my fellow villager didn't say anything, so I asked him again, what is the relationship between this woman and him? But my fellow villager still refused to say."

"If he refuses to tell, will you continue to hide it for him?" Lu Weiwei asked.

But the fat man also had no choice but to explain: "I can't do anything about it. He is imprisoned here and I am the one who took him in."

"If something really happens, I will definitely be implicated. That's for sure."

"Later, I kept asking him. Maybe because he was concerned about our hometown and the fact that I had helped him, he told me that as long as I didn't tell anyone, he would leave the rest to me."

"And he also promised me that he would give me a hush money."

"So what did you say then?" Gu Chen asked.

"What else can I say? I don't agree." The fat man also said with a bitter face:
"I told him at the time that I could keep it a secret, but he had to get rid of the person as soon as possible. As long as he got rid of the person, I would pretend that nothing had happened here."

"I just want to live a good life. I don't want to be involved in his bad affairs. I also warned him that he must not let this woman die here, otherwise I will turn against him."

"So what did he say?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"He agreed, he compromised, and promised to get rid of the person in a few days, but before he found a hiding place, he hoped that I would not say anything nonsense and pretend that nothing happened here."

"Because the cement pipes here are the best hidden location, it is difficult for ordinary people to find this place."

At this point, the fat man glanced at Gu Chen and the others, and said bitterly:
"But I didn't expect that the police would come to my door so quickly. This guy is really trying to trick me. He even said that no one can find this place. Isn't this a lie?"

"He didn't lie to you." Yuan Shasha heard this and said without hesitation:

"He is indeed very good at disguise, and the place where he hides is also very secret. It took us a lot of effort to find this place."

"So that's how it is?" After hearing what Yuan Shasha said, the fat man sighed and said helplessly:

"But all this happened on my territory. I am really unlucky. I really have to thank my ancestors. Why did he blame me?"

"Then how do we know?" Lu Weiwei also frowned slightly.

Gu Chen quickly asked: "Where is your fellow villager now?"

"I don't know. He has always been very secretive." said the fat man.

So Gu Chen asked the fat man again: "Didn't he tell you why he kidnapped this woman?"

"No." The fat man continued to shake his head and said:

"He told me not to ask anything. The more I asked, the worse off I would be. He just told me to pretend that I knew nothing. Only in this way would it be absolutely beneficial for me." After taking a deep breath, the fat man continued to explain: "I felt that he was right, so I thought, this ancestor should take the man away quickly."

"Every extra day that woman stayed here was like a landmine buried in my house. I was really on edge every day."

"I didn't see it." After the fat man finished speaking, Lu Weiwei shook her head and said sarcastically:
"Aren't you snoring in your sleep?"

"Hey, policewoman, please stop teasing me. I'm in such bad luck right now."

"You're not done yet." As the fat man finished speaking, Officer Wang, who had already treated the wound on his arm, came over and warned the fat man:
"Why did you run when I was chasing you?"

"No...no, if you chase me I will definitely run away." The fat man said nervously.

Officer Wang frowned and said: Why would I chase you if you didn't run?

"But I'm scared." The fat man looked ashamed.

Officer Wang got excited and said, "Are you scared? I think you are guilty. You want to run away, but you choose to run away on such a difficult road. You are fat and run quite fast, right?"

"If it wasn't for chasing you, would I have fallen like this? Huh?"

Seeing that Officer Wang was also angry, and seeing his arm tied with a hemostatic bandage, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha also tried hard to hold back their laughter.

Gu Chen said slowly: "Is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true. Everything I said is true."

"I think you are not a honest person. You have a simple and honest face, but you have a lot of tricks in your mind."

"People like you are the best at disguising themselves."

"Don't say that, police officer. It hurts people's self-esteem."

"Hehehe, do you still have self-respect?" Seeing that the fat man would talk back to every time he said something, Officer Wang asked curiously.

Gu Chen also hurriedly comforted Officer Wang: "Brother Wang, calm down first. The most important thing for us now is to find out the situation of the kidnapper."

"Yeah." Upon hearing this, Officer Wang also stopped arguing.

The reason why I was angry just now was because Officer Wang had put in a lot of effort to catch the guy.

After all, who could have thought that a fat man could run so fast? When Officer Wang was chasing him, he accidentally fell flat on his face. Anyone would feel unhappy.

Afterwards, Gu Chen asked Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha to take the fat man's statement on the spot, while he brought Officer Wang to Zhao Xiaomin.

At this moment, Zhao Xiaomin's wounds had been treated and the ambulance was ready to take her to the hospital for further examination.

At this time, Gu Chen stopped the medical staff and said, "Give us some time, we still have something to ask her."

"Okay." Seeing that the police needed time, the medical staff got out of the car tactfully.

Gu Chen and Officer Wang got in the car and came to Zhao Xiaomin.

"Zhao Xiaomin, are you feeling better now?" Gu Chen asked.

"I'm much better now." At this moment, Zhao Xiaomin's voice was still very low and her body was very weak.

So Gu Chen asked again: "Where were you kidnapped?"

"I was on my way home when someone knocked me unconscious from behind. When I woke up, I found myself chained here. I didn't even know where I was." Zhao Xiaomin spoke breathlessly.

So Gu Chen asked Zhao Xiaomin again: "Do you know what the person who kidnapped you looks like?"

"I don't know." Zhao Xiaomin, who was lying on the stretcher, shook her head: "He was wearing a mask, so I couldn't see his face clearly."

So Gu Chen asked again: "Did he say anything to you?"

Zhao Xiaomin still shook her head: "No, he didn't tell me anything. I don't know what he wanted to do by kidnapping me here."

"He only comes over occasionally to bring me some food and water, but I am trapped here and it is really uncomfortable. It is hard to even breathe."

"In this dark and confined space, I felt my heart beating very fast and I felt very depressed. I felt like I had no hope. Moreover, he didn't tell me why he kidnapped me here."

"He didn't even want to say a word to me. He seemed a little unpredictable."

At the end of her speech, Zhao Xiaomin was also out of breath, as if she had survived a calamity.

Gu Chen also moved closer and continued to ask: "Have you offended anyone recently?"

"I...I recently?" After a brief thought, Zhao Xiaomin shook his head and denied it:
"I have a quiet personality and never get into conflict with anyone. I have never offended anyone, and I am very popular with people."

"But I just don't know why. He wanted to kidnap me? For money? But my family is not well off. I have no money at all."

"So I really can't figure out, what did I do wrong? Why did he do this to me?"

At the end of her speech, Zhao Xiaomin cried because she really couldn't understand why she was kidnapped for no reason.

Gu Chen also saw Zhao Xiaomin's grievance, so he quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, we will take care of it. You just need to take good care of yourself and don't worry about anything else."

"In addition, we will send police officers to the hospital to protect your safety. Just focus on recovering from your injuries."

"Thank you, thank you." Zhao Xiaomin was very moved when she heard Gu Chen's heartwarming words and couldn't help choking up.

After Gu Chen gave a few simple instructions, he also exited the ambulance and nodded to the paramedics: "Take good care of her."

"Yes." The paramedic nodded silently, then got into the ambulance and left with Zhao Xiaomin.

At this moment, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha had already finished taking their statements and came in front of Gu Chen.

"Zhao Xiaomin was sent away?" Lu Weiwei said.

"She was sent away, but she didn't know why that guy kidnapped her." Gu Chen said.

"Does this guy have any conspiracy?" Yuan Shasha asked.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "It's highly likely, but he didn't make any demands when he kidnapped Zhao Xiaomin, so his demands are a mystery."

"And I feel that Zhao Xiaomin has most likely become a scapegoat, because Zhao Xiaomin has never offended anyone, and she is also popular, so she would never take the initiative to conflict with others."

"And now my only feeling is that she might have been involved in a game between the kidnapper and others and was shot innocently."
