Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 733 is another example of using predictable tactics.

The female soldiers and policewomen also met the standards... Yu Dazhang added in his mind.

He guessed that Gu Dingwen had never even considered this possibility.

In other words, he would be so scared that he wouldn't dare to make a move on female soldiers or policewomen.

"Although your price is high, I don't actually make much money."

Zhang Jiangke sighed, then explained:
“I can’t go looking for people myself. I would also have to pay my subordinates more for such requests, especially at times like this. If the money isn’t right, no one will dare to go against the grain.”

"So..."

He deliberately drew out the sound, and then said:
"If you want more money, add another 200,000 per person. Only then can I guarantee that I can get the people for you in the near future."

Yu Dazhang understood that Zhang Jiangke wanted Gu Dingwen to back down.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Jiangke still didn't want to take the job; he didn't want to create unnecessary trouble or put the police in a difficult position.

Therefore, he continued to raise the price on top of the already high price, but the price could not be raised too outrageously; 200,000 was just the right number.

Just when Da Zhang thought Gu Dingwen would refuse, the other party actually agreed!

"Alright, then let's add another 200,000 to each person."

Gu Dingwen didn't even hesitate for a moment before agreeing:

"However, I can only give you three days. After you find the person, leave me a message on QQ, and I will contact you when I see it."

Should we still contact each other via QQ? Yu Dazhang had assumed that Gu Dingwen would leave a phone number.

"it is good."

As soon as Zhang Jiangke agreed, Gu Dingwen hung up the video call.

After being confirmed by the technicians, Yu Dazhang stood up and went to the next room.

"You heard it too, I had no choice but to agree to what happened just now."

Upon seeing him, Zhang Jiangke immediately explained:
"Just like Lao Gu said, a generous reward will surely bring forth brave men. If I refuse, he will definitely become suspicious of me."

"And I think this is a good opportunity to capture him."

While he was speaking, Yu Dazhang kept observing his facial expressions.

No lie.

Zhang Jiangke's expression was natural, and there was nothing unusual in his eyes.

Although he has been cooperative so far, Yu Dazhang is always on guard against him.

Seemingly out of professional instinct, he never fully trusted any of the suspects.

"You did nothing wrong."

Yu Dazhang stared at him with a serious expression:
“I heard your conversation. This is the only way to gain Gu Dingwen’s trust, and you acted very naturally.”

If someone does something right, you should acknowledge it; otherwise, it can easily lead to a cognitive bias in the other person, which could affect their subsequent actions.

Zhang Jiangke then returned the phone.

After taking the phone, Yu Dazhang handed it to Captain Xu, asking him to give it to the technician next door.

"You've already located Lao Gu, right?" Zhang Jiangke asked.

This was the first time he had proactively raised a question to Da Zhang, and it even involved the case.

Yu Dazhang knew that he was asking this to give his own judgment, so he didn't hide anything and answered directly:
“That’s right, we located him in a residence in a residential area.”

"I have a suggestion for you," Zhang Jiangke said, looking at him.
"It would be best to investigate secretly. I don't think Lao Gu would expose his location so easily. When I was video chatting with him just now, I felt that there was something awkward about the room he was in."

"how to say……"

He frowned, as if trying to recall the scene, and then continued:
"The room was so small that it felt cramped, like he was locked in a box."

"And he turned around, but I couldn't see the window."

Zhang Jiangke shook his head, looking somewhat confused:

"I did see the curtains, but judging from their size, they don't look like the kind of windows an ordinary family would have." Yu Dazhang had also seen them when Gu Dingwen made a video call earlier, but he was thinking about something at the time, so he didn't observe them too closely.

Looking back now, something definitely didn't seem right.

At that time, Gu Dingwen's environment looked like a very small cubicle, and the surrounding walls did not look like the cement walls of a house.

If it were a residential building, it shouldn't be so small; it doesn't conform to the typical size of a residential building.

This is Songhai. Although land is extremely valuable, it's not as common as Hong Kong, where subdivided flats are everywhere.

Even ordinary residential houses are calculated in square meters, not in feet like in Hong Kong.

To put it simply, although it's expensive, it's not as crowded as Hong Kong.

There is another point that cannot be ignored.

Gu Dingwen is not short of money.

He couldn't possibly live in a rented room with partitioned rooms.

His hotel booking records show that his accommodation standards are much better than Zhang Jiangke's.

Zhang Jiangke's best hotel is a three-star hotel, while Gu Dingwen starts with three-star hotels and often stays in five-star hotels.

"Could it be a warehouse or something?" Yu Dazhang asked Zhang Jiangke as he searched his mind for an answer.

"It doesn't seem like it." Zhang Jiangke shook his head.
“It’s true that some houses have storage rooms, but those storage rooms usually don’t have windows. However, you can see the curtains in the video. Although they are small, I can see them very clearly.”

"Moreover, compared to the warehouse, Lao Gu's space is larger and has better lighting."

Yu Dazhang nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Team Leader Hua pushed open the door and walked in.

"Our people will arrive at the target community in ten minutes."

He looked at Yu Dazhang and asked:

"Is there anything else I need to pay attention to?"

He knew Yu Dazhang's intentions, so he only sent two police officers to monitor him secretly.

"Tell them not to go near Building 3," Yu Dazhang said carefully.

"We must be well disguised, as the other party may have planted informants in the neighborhood."

He is now certain that Gu Dingwen is not in the neighborhood.

If I'm not mistaken, the other party is likely using a proxy IP to confuse their judgment.

Yu Dazhang had no doubt that Gu Dingwen could do this.

In today's internet age, you can easily do it by simply going to any local electronics market and finding someone who understands internet technology.

After Hua left, Yu Dazhang and Zhang Jiangke thought for a while longer, but still couldn't come up with any ideas.

When Gu Dingwen turned on the video, he quickly turned around, clearly not intending for Zhang Jiangke to carefully observe his surroundings.

Just as Da Zhang was about to change the subject, Zhang Jiangke suddenly spoke up:

Is it possible that he was in the car?

Inside the car? Yu Dazhang was taken aback upon hearing this.

If you're inside a car, you can tell, since the roof is low and a person can't stand up.

But when Ke Gu Dingwen filmed the video, she was clearly standing.

But then he thought again, Zhang Jiangke must know this too, so he didn't bring it up for no reason.

That's a problem with the car model.

Not all cars have low roofs, for example...

Yu Dazhang's eyes lit up, and he looked at him and said:
"You mean, a motorhome?"
