Chapter 179 Continue the investigation

Cheng Shi quickly asked: "Who is he!"
Shopkeeper Zhu sighed, and then said: "His name is Gu Feng, but he probably didn't do this. We have been friends for decades, so there is no way he wanted to lie to me!"
Cheng Shi did not answer, but waited for Shopkeeper Zhu to continue speaking.
Shopkeeper Zhu calmed down and continued: "In fact, we not only rely on the store to collect antiques, but also have other sources, that is, collecting antiques from people who are in urgent need of money.
Then we sell it to people who like those antiques and earn the price difference, so there are always people who are involved in the antique circle to cooperate with us!
Antiques, unlike other things, are highly mobile, so he is the only one who has always had business dealings with me.
So he knows a lot about my liquidity and my personal habits, but our decades-long relationship can’t be him!”
Cheng Shi nodded and said: "Of course, this is just my guess. Your friend may have been forced, or he may have accidentally leaked it.
But no matter what, I should be able to find clues about this matter from him, please ask Shopkeeper Zhu to take me to find him!"
Shopkeeper Zhu said in confusion: "Why is Mr. Cheng so concerned about this matter? What is going on?!"
Cheng Shi took out his ID and explained: "I am a detective. This matter is related to the disappearance of a teenager, so I must investigate!"
Shopkeeper Zhu nodded and continued: "So that's it. Well, I also want to find out whether Gu Feng was involved in this matter. I'll take you there!"
Shopkeeper Zhu immediately took Cheng Shi to Gu Feng's home. After the two entered, Shopkeeper Zhu and Gu Feng introduced Cheng Shi.
"This is Agent Cheng!" Then he introduced Cheng Shi: "This is my good friend Mr. Gu Fenggu!"
Gu Feng wears a traditional gown, black cloth shoes on his feet, and his hair is also the style of men of this era.
He also has thick eyebrows and big eyes, which can be said to be very handsome. After meeting Shopkeeper Zhu, he always smiled at the two of them.
After hearing Shopkeeper Zhu's introduction, Gu Feng said doubtfully: "I am Gu Feng. I wonder what Agent Cheng is here to do?"
Although Gu Feng always spoke with a smile and was very polite to Shopkeeper Zhu, his tone when speaking to Cheng Shi was full of disdain.
Cheng Shi knew that these people didn't have a good impression of police officers, so he didn't care and kept smiling.
Cheng Shi replied directly: "That's it, Mr. Gu, my father is about to celebrate his fiftieth birthday, and I want to choose a special gift!
My father likes ancient calligraphy and painting very much, so I went to Shopkeeper Zhu to pick out gifts, but there was nothing he found that satisfied me.
After Shopkeeper Zhu learned about my intention, he introduced you to me. He said you might have one here!"
Gu Feng looked at Shopkeeper Zhu. Although Shopkeeper Zhu didn't know what Cheng Shi meant by saying this, he still nodded.
When Gu Feng heard this, he said with a smile: "Agent Cheng, actually, I am just a middleman, those things belong to others, and they will only come to me when they want to sell!
As for finding paintings and calligraphy that satisfy your father, even if you find them, the owner may not sell them.
Of course, Agent Cheng, you can tell me your requirements for calligraphy and painting, and if there is anything suitable, I will help you get in touch!"
When Cheng Shi heard this, he also smiled and said: "Thank you in advance. If this thing is successful, Mr. Gu will not be short of benefits!"
My father’s favorite is Han Gan’s works. I don’t know, but do you know who has Han Gan’s works in his hands?”
After Cheng Shi asked, he stared at Gu Feng's face carefully. Shopkeeper Zhu also understood what Cheng Shi meant and turned to stare at Gu Feng.
When Gufeng heard this, his eyes instantly narrowed, then returned to normal, and then he frowned and started thinking.
Not long after, Gu Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know. I'm very sorry that I can't help you. However, I will still inquire for Agent Cheng!"
Cheng Shi naturally noticed the other party's little movements. It seemed that Gu Feng was indeed related to the fake paintings, otherwise he would have no reason to lie.
Cheng Shi then replied: "In this case, it's troublesome. Shopkeeper Zhu and I will go to other places to ask, and we will say goodbye!"
Gu Feng then sent the two of them out with a smile. After the two of them walked away, Cheng Shi said to Shopkeeper Zhu: "I'm bothering Shopkeeper Zhu today. It seems that this line is wrong, so I will go back first!"
Shopkeeper Zhu quickly waved his hand and replied: "There, if you hadn't helped me today, I would have lost a lot. If you need help in the future, just come to me!"
Cheng Shi and Shopkeeper Zhu exchanged a few polite words and separated from each other. Cheng Shi did not stare at Gu Feng.
Because Gu Feng is not a very important part of this scam, and because of his status as a middleman.
Gu Feng probably just betrayed shopkeeper Zhu's information. Cheng Shi then rushed back to the patrol room. He sat in his seat and thought about the clues in his mind.
After Cheng Shi sorted out the clues in his mind, Deng Xin also came back, and the few policemen he led were also suppressing Boss Du and a few people Cheng Shi had never seen before!
Cheng Shi hurriedly stepped forward and after asking, he found out that after Boss Du left, he secretly came to a remote house.
To be on the safe side, Deng Xin was afraid that there might be some secret passage inside, so she simply rushed in and brought back everyone inside.
Cheng Shi didn't blame Deng Xin for being reckless. After all, it was possible, and Boss Du might not know what he was thinking.
For an uncontrollable future, controlling people is the safest way, but I don't know if I can find any clues.
Feng Tao also saw a few people brought back by Deng Xin. They came over and asked in confusion: "What's the situation? Who are these?"
Deng Xin quickly replied: "These people are suspects of selling fake antiques together!"
Feng Tao looked at Cheng Shi with confusion, while Cheng Shi spread his hands and said helplessly.
"When I went to the surrounding area to look for clues, I happened to come across this case, and it is very likely to be related to Tan Jun's disappearance!"
Feng Tao couldn't figure out what the relationship between the fake antique case and Tan Jun's disappearance was. However, he didn't ask any more questions, but thought about his own affairs before continuing.
"Then you can continue the investigation. I have other things to do. I don't have much time to help with the case of Tan Jun's disappearance!
However, you’d better solve the case quickly, after all, the first few days of the disappearance case are the most important, and if it’s too late, it will be too late!”
After hearing this, Cheng Shi didn't show any signs of anxiety, but said relaxedly: "Don't worry, since the other party was able to take Tan Jun away from the Tan family, and they didn't kill anyone on the spot!
There was no ransom note left, which means that the other party needs Tan Jun very much, and he should be fine for the time being!"
Chapter completed!
