On the dance floor of Victoria International Entertainment Plaza, Zhou Chen put his arms around Xu Zhiyun's waist and danced to the music.
"You haven't been in a good mood lately, are you still thinking about that?"
Xu Zhiyun asked with concern while matching Zhou Chen's dance steps.
Zhou Chen did not answer. Although more than a month had passed, Guan Qing's murderer had not yet been caught, so naturally he was not in a good mood.
He originally thought that because of his specialness, he could help break the eucalyptus, but when he actually did it, he realized that breaking the eucalyptus was not as easy as he thought.
In this era of backward technology, there are no cameras, and the person involved is no longer there. It is really difficult to find the murderer just by looking at it from a distance by a witness.
This also made him make a decision to study more methods of solving crimes in the future. Maybe he might be able to travel through such a suspenseful scene in the future.
Seeing that Zhou Chen was silent, Xu Zhiyun comforted her again: "Zhou Chen, don't think so much, no one wants an accident to happen, not to mention it's not your fault."
She is still worried about Zhou Chen's murder because of his students. She saw it, which also made her look at Zhou Chen with admiration.
In the past, I only thought Zhou Chen was charming and capable, but now it seems that Zhou Chen still values love and justice.
"I know it's not my fault, but..."
Zhou Chen is very sober. What he can't deal with is that a young girl lost her life like this, and the murderer has not been caught yet.
After the dance, the two returned to their seats.
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. I have to go home during the Chinese New Year, so I may not have time to accompany you." Xu Zhiyun said to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I have long been used to celebrating the New Year alone."
He has celebrated the Spring Festival countless times, and has celebrated the New Year alone quite a few times, so he has long been used to being alone.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Zhou Chen stood up and went to the bathroom. Recently, he was temporarily suspended from work, so he was very free.
"Brother Chen."
Wang Yang shook the tray in his hand and when he saw Zhou Chen washing his hands, he immediately approached him with a face full of joy.
"When I saw Sister Yun just now, I knew you must be there too."
Zhou Chen and Xu Zhiyun have been coming to Victoria frequently recently, and Wang Yang, who works here, naturally sees them frequently.
"Brother Chen, you and Sister Yun have become a couple, why are you still thinking about Shen Mo?"
Zhou Chen gave him a sideways look: "You are so lenient, do you want to condemn me?"
"Brother Chen, it's wrong for you to do this. It's not fair to Shen Mo." Wang Yang said in defiance.
"You're a little brat, what do you know? Just go to your class."
Zhou Chen also grew up at Wang Yang's age and knows very well what Wang Yang's mentality is now.
Wang Yang is a person who has not experienced much society. He is still very simple in all aspects. He feels that men and women should be single-minded.
Zhou Chen waved his hand, walked past Wang Yang, and returned to his position.
Xu Zhiyun talked to Zhou Chen about making money again. Ever since she followed Zhou Chen's advice and made money in the Xiangjiang stock market, she fell in love with this way of making money and often asked Zhou Chen for advice.
Zhou Chen didn't hide it, and tried his best to help Xu Zhiyun. While Xu Zhiyun was making money, he was also making money. Helping Xu Zhiyun was helping himself.
The guests sitting at a table not far from Zhou Chen and others were very noisy. There were five men in total, all of them seemed to be a little drunk, and they were shouting and punching each other.
Xu Zhiyun was obviously disturbed. She said to Zhou Chen: "It's a bit noisy here tonight. Should we go to the private room or leave first?"
"Let's go first."
"Okay, then go to my house."
Xu Zhiyun stood up, Zhou Chen also stood up, picked up the coat on the chair, and put it on Xu Zhiyun.
"Let's go."
When passing by the noisy table, Zhou Chen glanced casually, but just this glance made him stop in vain, and his eyes were fixed on one of them.
It was a man in a black coat, in his thirties, who was excitedly fist-pumping with his companions.
What Zhou Chen was looking at was the black coat on this man. Just now he took a casual glance and saw that the buttons on this black coat were exactly the same as the evidence buttons left by Guan Qing.
So he stopped and walked towards the man without thinking. When he walked up to him, he suddenly discovered that the man's coat was missing a button.
His eyes suddenly flashed with light. Ignoring the astonished looks of those people, he grabbed the man's shoulders, then activated the Skill Appraisal Child, and then saw his left eye emitting a light that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
The next moment, a large amount of information poured into his mind. Zhou Chen did not accept them all, but directly selected the information from the past two months.
He has used the Appraisal Boy many times before and has sufficient experience in using it. In order to activate this skill, he must touch the object himself.
As long as he touches the item, he can see all the information about the item from its birth until he touches it.
Of course, this "all" is not complete, but some basic information and representative information. Like some insignificant information, it has no meaning to display.
Zhou Chen doesn't need all the information, he can choose a time point to get the information, and what he chose this time is the information before and after the death.
Fortunately, he had already had the experience of receiving memories and messages many times, so it was very easy to receive them this time, and he quickly caught useful messages.
Just when he wanted to tidy up, the man whose shoulders he grabbed and his companions were shocked and angry by his interruption.
"Hey, who the hell are you and what do you want to do?"
After slapping Zhou Chen's hand away, the man in a black coat questioned Zhou Chen very unhappily.
After being slapped like this, Zhou Chen came back to his senses and showed an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I recognized the wrong person."
When Zhou Chen said that he had admitted the wrong person, the other party was still unhappy and shouted: "Wrong person? Is there something wrong? Get out of here and don't disturb me and the others while they are drinking."
Zhou Chen was not angry, waved his hand, and the moment he turned his head, the smile on his face disappeared, and his eyes became extremely cold.
After identifying the coat, he already knew the name of the man wearing the black coat, but he also determined that this man was not the real murderer, because the information on the coat showed that the man became the man after the murder.
The owner of the coat, before that, had another name.
Xu Zhiyun saw Zhou Chen's behavior just now. After Zhou Chen came over, she held Zhou Chen's arm and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "Give me the phone."
Seeing Zhou Chen's unprecedented serious expression, Xu Zhiyun took out the mobile phone from her bag without thinking and handed it to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen said: "Sister Yun, sit back first and help me keep an eye on these people. I'll make a phone call."
After saying that, without explaining anything to Xu Zhiyun, she walked aside with her cell phone.
Xu Zhiyun looked at Zhou Chen who was leaving, and then at the men at the table, with a look of confusion on her face, but she still followed Zhou Chen's instructions and sat back down where she was before, staring at the men.
.
Zhou Chen found a deserted corner and dialed the phone.
"I asked Captain Ma Desheng and asked the horse team to answer the phone... Yes, I am Zhou Chen, the horse team. I found a major clue. You should bring people to Victoria International Entertainment Plaza immediately. Yes, it is a major clue about Guan Qinggu...
, make this call when you arrive."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew the murderer's name through the coat, his method was too fantasy and could not be used as evidence at all.
What's more, he only knew the name and knew nothing else, so he had to find this person first and then find a way to convict him.
The Appraisal Child is very powerful, but it is not omnipotent after all. It can only display information about items. Although it can know the previous owner, it is limited to knowing the name.
But even so, Zhou Chen felt that the role of the appraisal boy was greater than many of his skills.
When Xu Zhiyun saw Zhou Chen coming back, she asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Do those people have any grudge against you?"
Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "Sister Yun, please don't worry about this matter. I just called the criminal police team."
"Is it related to the fate you are thinking about? Okay, I won't ask anymore."
Xu Zhiyun guessed the reason immediately, but she was also smart and did not ask any further.
About ten minutes later, the phone rang. Zhou Chen immediately answered the call and then left the hall.
At the door of Victoria, Ma Desheng, Cui Guodong and Li Qun saw Zhou Chen approaching and immediately greeted him.
"Zhou Chen, what did you find out again? You called me over in such a hurry?"
Zhou Chen said: "Captain, I found that piece of clothing missing a button."
"What?"
Ma Desheng didn't turn a corner for a while, but the next moment, his expression suddenly changed: "What are you talking about, the clothes missing a button? Are you talking about the button that Guan Qing pulled off?"
"Yes, that's the button. I'm pretty sure it's exactly the same."
"where?"
Ma Desheng's expression became extremely solemn. He knew how much Zhou Chen cared about Guan Qingyu and was unlikely to lie about such an important matter.
On the other hand, Li Qun on the side asked in confusion: "Zhou Chen, I don't quite understand, how did you determine it? There are so many identical buttons."
Zhou Chen didn't need to answer, Cui Guodong impatiently scolded: "Li Qun, why are you talking so much? Whether it is true or not will be known when you catch the person. What's the use of asking here?"
Although he was also following Ma Desheng, Cui Guodong had always looked down upon Li Qun. He felt that Li Qun would flatter him, was unhappy with his work, and lacked respect for the cavalry team. Therefore, whenever Li Qun said anything, he would want to fight back.
Ma Desheng also said: "Never mind so much, Zhou Chen, where is the person you are talking about?"
"It's right inside, I'll take you in."
Under Zhou Chen's guidance, Ma Desheng and the others quickly saw the five men, especially the man wearing a black coat.
Ma Desheng has also been studying this piece of evidence, so when he saw the buttons on the black coat, he recognized them at a glance. They were exactly the same as the evidence.
The next step was very simple. Ma Desheng immediately announced his identity and left with the man in the black coat and several of his companions.
Early the next morning, Zhou Chen came to the criminal police team.
Ma Desheng took a cigarette and handed it to Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen waved his hand and refused.
"After asking, the coat should belong to the murderer, but that person is not the murderer. He said he picked up the coat. We conducted a careful investigation and interrogation last night. He probably did not lie. There is another murderer."
Ma Desheng sighed. To be honest, finding this coat was a surprise to him. He was not too surprised that the murderer was not caught.
Zhou Chen said: "Since it is the clothes worn by the murderer, someone must have seen it. We can search around the murder scene and see that no one has seen this coat."
Ma Desheng glanced at Zhou Chen unexpectedly: "Hey, you are quite smart, you can think of this. You don't need to tell me, I have already arranged for people to investigate, but this is a big project, I'm afraid it will take a long time, and
It is very likely that the murderer will find out. Whether the murderer can be caught is hard to say."
Zhou Chen did know the murderer's name, and he wanted to tell it, but he didn't know what excuse to use.
After leaving the police station, Zhou Chen searched around the city and found an Internet cafe with Internet access.
It is not easy to find this person just by knowing the name, but if you want to do it, there are still ways.
Using the Internet, Zhou Chen quickly found a company that specialized in finding people, and directly offered a high price to find a person named 'Jia Jian' in Hualin City.
As the saying goes, money can make people go around. The other company quickly accepted Zhou Chen's task and sent an account number to Zhou Chen, asking Zhou Chen to pay a 30% deposit first. The other party promised that after paying the deposit, it would be released within a week.
Give him the results of the investigation.
This kind of transaction is also a dark transaction. Neither party will show up or meet each other. The safety is guaranteed, but paying the deposit first requires taking a certain risk.
But for Zhou Chen, this risk was not worth mentioning, and he quickly transferred money to the other party's account.
Just like that, just three days later, the other party contacted Zhou Chen on the Internet and sent him the investigation results.
There were eighteen people named Jia Jian in the entire Hualin City. Zhou Chen screened them one by one and finally identified a few.
He used the size and model of the coat to determine the size and height of the murderer, which made it easy to investigate. Then based on the location and residence, he finally identified the two most suspicious people. They were both young adults, one in his thirties and the other in his fourteens.
Ten years old.
After identifying the target, Zhou Chen took action, first tracking and observing Jia Jian, who was in his thirties, and then followed Jia Jian, who was forty years old.
With his experience and skills, as long as he wants to track someone, it will be difficult to detect his tracking unless the other party's anti-reconnaissance capabilities are really excellent.
In less than a week, Zhou Chen identified the murderer.
