Chapter 547 Identity?

Therefore, even though he was pinned to the ground by four men and unable to move, he still struggled with all his might.

"Let me go. Who are you? What do you want to do? Let me go..."

"Gu Daming, can't you tell who we are? You're not going to tell me that you don't even recognize the police uniforms?"

"Police, why did the police arrest me? I didn't do anything bad."

"You know whether you have done anything bad or not."

"I don't know. I didn't do anything. Why did you arrest me? Someone, come! Someone, come! Neighbors, please come and save me. The police are arresting people indiscriminately! The police are beating people!"

This guy was shouting at a lung-shattering and deafening voice. The veins on his forehead popped out and his face turned red.

Can people outside hear it? Of course they can!

However, before the arrest, the troops had already established temporary control within 20 meters on both sides of Gu Daming's house. At this moment, except for the police, all the neighbors were 20 meters away from his door. Even if everyone could hear it, no one would be able to help.

In the Gu family yard, Gu Daming, who was pinned to the ground, was helped up after being handcuffed behind his back.

This guy was also a ruthless person. As soon as he stood up, he slammed his head backwards.

boom……

"Woo..."

The police officer who was controlling him from behind didn't pay attention and was hit directly on the bridge of his nose by his head. The blow caused tears and snot to flow, and stars appeared in front of his eyes. He let out a muffled groan.

However, despite the pain, the police officer with stars in his eyes behind him did not reduce his strength at all.

As for Gu Daming, while he headbutted the police officer behind him, he raised his right leg and kicked the police officer standing in front of him.

However, the police officer in front reacted quickly. As he raised his foot, he reached out and grabbed his ankle. After grabbing his ankle, the police officer was not polite at all and dragged his right leg back a few steps.

He stepped back, and the others held onto Gu Daming and didn't move, which made him do a split.

Ow...

This shout was much louder than the one he made when he was struggling just now, and it made the ears of the two police officers standing on both sides of his body buzz.

Fortunately, the police officer in front didn't want to do anything to him. He pulled his ankle for a while and then quickly let go.

"Old Li, how is it?"

After loosening his ankle, he looked at the police officer standing behind Gu Daming and asked.

"It's not a big problem. I didn't even have a nosebleed. I should be fine. It's just a little sore."

"Gu Daming, if you don't want to suffer, just cooperate with us honestly. If you dare to mess around again, don't blame us for being rude."

The police officer standing in the front raised his hand and pointed at Gu Daming, whose face was twitching because his crotch was pulled. As he spoke, he took out a red notebook from his jacket pocket and showed it.

"We are from the Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Bureau. We have a case that requires your cooperation. Here is a search warrant. We also need to search your home."

After handing Gu Daming his work ID and search warrant, the police officer turned around and waved toward the door. Soon, several police officers came in.

This time, the arrest of Gu Daming was a joint effort of the headquarters and the criminal police team of the Dianhai Branch.

Seeing that this case spanning ten years is finally coming to a conclusion, the headquarters cannot take all the credit for itself and must share some of the profits with the Dianhai Branch.

After the police officers came in, they went straight into the house, grabbed Gu Daming and pulled him to the wall.

"No... Comrade Public Security, what on earth are you doing? You arrested me for no reason, handcuffed me, and searched my house. What crime have I committed?"

"Gu Daming, we haven't asked you this whole time because we've given you the opportunity to confess on your own initiative. You know best whether you did anything or not. If you really wait for me to tell you, you won't have any chance at all."

Hearing this, Gu Daming curled his lips in his heart. He didn't believe that if he really cooperated honestly, the police would still give him leniency.

He knew very well that with what he had done, he would surely die even if he had nine heads.

Since you are going to die, why should you cooperate? Can't I find you something to do?
He thought so in his heart, but his face showed confusion.

"Comrade Public Security, I really don't know what law I have violated. Can you remind me? Uh... could it be that I asked the production team for cigarettes?

"It's just a few cents a pack of cigarettes, there's no need to make such a big fuss, right? Can't I just give them back? I'll give them one... No, I'll give them two packs, two packs for each production team, what do you think?"

"Haha, stop playing dumb here, you want a cigarette? Don't you open your eyes and see that we are from the Municipal Bureau. Is it necessary to ask us to come here for such a trivial matter?
It doesn't matter if you don't want to cooperate honestly, just shut up and don't make any more noise. When it's your turn to speak, you will be able to speak."

Given Gu Daming's meticulousness and anti-detection methods, it was normal that nothing valuable to the case could be found in his home. They were prepared before coming here.

So, while the arrests and searches were being carried out here, several groups of people went to the public toilets he was responsible for, to see if there would be any discoveries there.

The Gu family's yard was not big and there were only two rooms, so the search was completed quickly.

Nothing particularly unusual was found, but an elementary school student's homework book was found in the drawer of the three-drawer table in his room. There were several crooked lines drawn on several pages of the book, and no substantial content could be seen.

But the police officers in charge of the search suspected that the line drawn by Gu De might be a route map left behind when he was following a female comrade, or a route map he drew for committing a crime.

But he just drew a few lines on the paper, which doesn't mean anything for now. I can only wait until he comes back to explain and then see if my guess is correct.

I also found a set of carpenter's tools in the toolbox, including chisels, planes, shovels, ink fountains, etc., which are all used in carpentry work. Judging from the dust on the tools and the degree of wear, these tools should be used frequently.

"Gu Daming, can you also do carpentry work?"

Crouching there and looking at the tools carefully, Cai Guangming, the chief of the major case section of the brigade who led the team today, and the police officer who was standing in front of Gu Daming just now and was almost kicked in the vital parts by him, turned around and asked.

Facing the question, Gu Daming, who was pressed against the wall, hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "My father taught me, and he also left these tools to me."

"Since your father has skills and can do carpentry, why wasn't he assigned to the furniture factory when he registered after liberation?"

Section Chief Cai asked with some confusion.

When the country was just liberated, professional talents were needed in all walks of life. People like Gu Daming's father who could do carpentry work would definitely be assigned to corresponding jobs, and the salary they could earn every month would definitely be more than that of sanitation workers.

Speaking of his father, Gu Daming's expression became noticeably bleaker. He shook his head slowly, "My father is in poor health and can no longer bear the wood dust raised by carpentry work, so he was assigned to be a sanitation worker. But I didn't expect that my father still couldn't... Alas..."

That's it!

Section Chief Cai nodded in sudden realization, then clapped his hands, stood up, pointed at the tools and ordered, "Take all these back."

He can do carpentry work, which means that the crutches he held that day were most likely made by himself. Not to mention the extra legs on the crutches, which also reflects some problems from the side.

"Comrade, what on earth is going on? You treated me like this the first time you came in, and you didn't explain to me what happened. You searched my house, took away my things, and handcuffed me. This... this is probably not something that the people's police should do, right?"

Hey!
Hearing what the man surnamed Gu said, Section Chief Cai raised his eyebrows. This guy was still trying to put accusations on others.

He grinned, raised his chin and pointed to Gu Daming's leg and said, "Let me ask you, is there something wrong with your right leg?"

"Yes, I am disabled. You can't bully a disabled person like this."

“Are you sure you are disabled?”

"Of course, all the neighbors nearby know about it, and the street office has my information registered. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask, or I can walk you through it."

At that time, the Disabled Persons' Federation had not yet been established. There was only an Association for the Blind and the Deaf established in 1953. However, the street office would register other types of disabled people in its jurisdiction and provide special care in certain aspects.

"Haha." Section Chief Cai smiled sarcastically, "Gu Daming, have you forgotten how you walked to the wall just now?"

After hearing this, Gu Daming was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed drastically. It seemed that he remembered that when he walked to the wall just now, his legs did not show any problems, just like a normal person.

Perhaps being caught suddenly made Gu Daming extremely nervous and a little panicked, and he subconsciously forgot his usual disguise.

"me……"

"Go ahead, there's no rush, Gu Daming. I'm not going to ask you right now. You can just take your time making it up in your mind. I'm waiting for you to give me a reasonable explanation."

Gu Daming's heart had completely sunk to the bottom at this point. He didn't expect that he would reveal such an obvious flaw in front of the police.

In fact, it is not his fault that he made such a fatal mistake. It was just that what happened today happened too suddenly. He was not mentally prepared at all, and he never expected that the police would descend on him like heavenly soldiers.

After talking to Gu Daming, Section Chief Cai waved his hand and signaled the team to disperse. No wig or strange cane, or other related direct or indirect evidence, was found here. Next, it would depend on whether the team that went to check the public toilets would get any results.

Although if he lets Director Li interrogate him after returning, he will be able to find out where this guy hides the thing, he will feel more accomplished if he finds it himself.

In fact, before seeing Gu Daming walking safely, Section Chief Cai was also very nervous.

Although there are suspicious points about Mr. Gu, they are just suspicious points after all, and they do not have any direct or indirect evidence of his crime.

If they were to make a mistake, it would be a headache for them just to eliminate the negative impact on Gu Daming afterwards, not to mention that they would definitely have to accept criticism from the city leaders.

Of course, being criticized is the bureau leaders’ business and has nothing to do with their subordinates.

It’s different now. Ever since he saw this guy walk without even bending his legs, he felt relieved.

That's it!

Even if he was not responsible for the series of crimes, this guy must have other secrets.

At the same time, among the teams inspecting the public toilets that Gu Daming was in charge of, one of the teams found some clues on the wall in the cesspool behind the public toilet they were inspecting.

When they endured the stench and removed a brick that looked loose on the wall of the pit, they discovered that there was something else hidden behind the brick, a long strip of object wrapped in waterproof oil paper.

After opening the oil paper, the faces of several police officers who were almost fainted by the stench immediately lit up with joy.

The strangely shaped cane and the gray wig suddenly appeared before their eyes.

The crutch was similar to what Qi Feng and Hu Rui described, and the wig was the same as what Doctor Liao had described. As for the place where the things were hidden, the police officers couldn't think of anyone else who would have thought of this place except Gu Daming, who was responsible for cleaning up the place.

They carefully rewrapped the things and rushed to the bureau immediately.

In another public toilet, at almost the same location, the team responsible for inspecting the toilet also found something.

It was also wrapped in oil paper. After opening the oil paper, what was revealed surprised several police officers.

A replica of a Continental revolver, dozens of matching 7.65mm bullets, and a few large yellow croakers that were obviously privately cast.

Judging from their condition, these items must be quite old. The Continental revolver and bullets look a bit rusty, and I don't know if they can still fire.

The large yellow croakers had also changed color, and under the flashlight, some looked purple or blue.

The appearance of this imitation Continental pistol made one of the police officers, who was almost 30 years old, wonder. Thinking about the information registered in Gu Daming's household registration, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. No way, this... no, it should be his father who has passed away, could it be...

Thinking of this, he quickly said: "Pack the things and let's go back to the bureau immediately. Gu Daming's identity may not be simple."

"What's wrong, Lao Zhao? Why is it so complicated? Is it because of this gun?"

"I can't say for sure." The old police officer shook his head and did not express his guess: "Report it to the leaders and let them figure it out."

The reason why he suddenly had other ideas was mainly because he realized that it was not an ordinary imitation of the Continental brand rifle, but a rifle used exclusively by generals and lieutenant generals during the War of Resistance Against Japan.

How could the Gu family have this?

……

When Li Yancheng saw the imitation Continental rifle, he frowned and felt something was wrong.

After Gu Daming was brought back, he was not in a hurry to meet this person, but waited patiently for the three teams that went to inspect the public toilets to come back.

When he saw the crutches and wig that were brought back, he felt relieved and immediately asked Director Chang, a footprint expert from the Public Security Headquarters who had been invited a long time ago, to compare the footprints.

But this turtle box that obviously looked like it hadn't been used for a long time made him inevitably guess.

Like the old policeman, the first person Li Yancheng thought of was Gu Daming’s father, and he guessed that this person’s identity must be extraordinary.

As for Gu Daming, he was only two years old when he was brought to Beijing by that man. It is very likely that he was just a shield used by the man to cover up his tracks.

It is not known whether he knew his father’s true identity or not, but this must be the focus of the trial, to make sure this guy has other identities.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening of October 1st. Li Yancheng waited patiently for the results of the comparison of footprints and fingerprints. Today was National Day, and he wanted to put an end to this case that had spanned ten years today. It could be regarded as a gift from their Beijing Public Security Bureau to the motherland on her birthday.

Even though this is a gift that is ten years late.

Over the past ten years, the psychological trauma of the victims could not be healed because the criminals were not caught, and the two young girls who were brutally murdered could not rest in peace.

And the girl who eventually chose to end her life because she couldn't stand the gossip, probably never figured out until her death why she, the victim, had to endure so much.

These victims need an explanation, their families need an explanation, and the people need an explanation even more.

call……

Li Yancheng exhaled heavily the cigarette he had inhaled.

After hesitating for a moment, Jin Zhihai stood up and walked over, raising his hand and patting his shoulder.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, everyone is working hard."

"I know!" Li Yancheng smiled and nodded.

"Hey, did I tell you that Lihua and Pengpeng are staying at my house tonight?"

"I don't know. I thought they would go back at night."

"No, we don't know what time we'll finish here tonight, and there's nothing for them to do back home. Xiao Min let them stay at home, and my two kids just happen to want to play with Peng Peng."

"Okay," Jin Zhihai shrugged nonchalantly.

"By the way, can you help me keep an eye out for that area? I also want to buy a yard. I've lived in an apartment building for so long, but I still feel that it's not as comfortable as living in our alley."

"Haha, I told you that you would regret it, but you still didn't believe me. Why don't you just not buy it? When the yard over there is ready, we can move there together. What do you think?"

Li Yancheng's words made Jin Zhihai's eyes light up, but then he shook his head again: "Forget it, what's the point of living in your house all the time? Besides, that yard is too big. I'm worried that it will have a bad impact if I live in it. You'd better not live there.

With your current status and position, if you really were to live in such a big yard, there would definitely be a lot of gossip.

Besides, how long will it take to clean up that yard? It might take at least two or three years, right? "

Two or three years? Five years would be fast.

However, Li Yancheng did not say this. He suddenly remembered that there were not only him and Jin Zhihai in the meeting room, but also several leaders of the Dianhai Branch.

Ever since the two men started talking, those people just sat there with their eyes on the nose and their noses on the mind.

They had heard that the two had a good relationship, but they had never expected that they could be so close that they would live in each other's homes.
