Chapter 285 Let’s Catch the Turtle in the Jar
After hearing this news from the dormitory manager, Gu Nankai suddenly gave up his plan to communicate with Zhang Xuan face to face. While he was thinking, he had already made a new plan.
"Auntie, that's it."
He looked at his watch and estimated that Zhang Xuan's get out of class was almost over, so he continued, "We are here to see Zhang Xuan because of a friend of hers. We are afraid that she will worry. Now we have to go back to the institute. So, when she comes back from get out of class, please tell her for us."
"What?"
The dormitory manager raised her eyebrows, as if she didn't want to have too much contact with the girl. Just kidding, that girl might be a bad person.
Gu Nankai smiled quickly, having seen through the aunt's thoughts, and quickly explained: "Please tell her that we have found the murderer of her friend. We are afraid that she will worry, and they have such a good relationship, so we came to tell her in person."
After hearing this, the aunt was stunned. It seemed that after talking for so long, she had misunderstood the girl?
"Aunt?"
Seeing that she didn't answer, Gu Nankai quickly called her again. The aunt came to her senses and agreed to their requests repeatedly. Gu Nankai took Wu Qingluan and Gao Yuan and left.
"Hey, Boss, what's going on? Why did you leave so suddenly? Didn't you come to see Zhang Xuan?"
Gao Yuan was a little puzzled about Gu Nankai's behavior and asked him while walking. Gu Nankai snorted coldly, but suddenly changed direction and went towards the opposite side of Zhang Xuan's dormitory building, taking Gao Yuan and Wu Qingluan to hide in an inconspicuous place.
After everyone stood in place , he told them his plan: "From what we saw just now, Huang Minghao and Zhang Xuan knew each other, which further confirmed our guess, so I came up with a new plan. Tell Zhang Xuan that we will see what she will do after we find the murderer."
"You want to..."
Wu Qingluan suddenly understood and murmured to Gu Nankai.
Gu Nankai nodded: "That's right, we have to let her fox tail show itself. As long as it is proved that Huang Minghao and Zhang Xuan know each other, then the murderer must be one of them. In addition, Zhang Xuan's behavior at the beginning shows that she must know something. If she is not the final murderer, maybe through Zhang Xuan, we can also find Huang Minghao."
Thinking of this, he suddenly turned around and whispered to Gao Yuan: "Gao Yuan, call Cao Cang and ask them what's going on over there."
Gao Yuan agreed and quickly called over, asking a few questions in a low voice. When he hung up the phone, he sighed and said to Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan, "Boss, they said they found nothing."
Gu Nankai sneered: "Oh, that's just what I imagined."
Just as they finished speaking, they saw Zhang Xuan's figure appear in the distance. The three of them quickly held their breath and stopped talking, just staring at Zhang Xuan and her group as they walked towards them.
It was surprising, because unlike when the serious crime team saw Zhang Xuan, this time Zhang Xuan was walking with her companions, with a cheerful face and a smile on her face, which was completely different from the sad and crying girl of the serious crime team.
It stands to reason that it would be difficult to do this even if you were acting in front of people.
Because Gu Nankai and his team bypassed the dormitory manager and found an excellent location, when Zhang Xuan walked to the dormitory manager and was stopped by her, they could still observe her expression.
When the dormitory manager told Zhang Xuan what Gu Nankai and the others had told them, Gu Nankai and the others noticed that Zhang Xuan's expression looked a little strange.
"She was surprised."
Wu Qingluan spoke first, and after Zhang Xuan came in, she quickly started talking.
"That's because she herself thinks it's impossible. But you also saw that Zhang Xuan let out a sigh of relief before leaving." Gu Nankai spoke solemnly following Wu Qingluan's words.
Gao Yuan also saw this, and slowly stood up and said, "Someone took the blame for her, so she has nothing to worry about. But this also proves that Zhang Xuan is the murderer."
Gu Nankai smiled. He originally came here just to talk to her face to face to see if he could find any loopholes, but he didn't expect that a few words from the dormitory manager would help them so much.
"It seems that our original plan needs to be changed."
Thinking of this, Gu Nankai and his friends quickly left the school. As soon as they got in the car, Gu Nankai started talking and asked Gao Yuan to make another phone call to tell Cao Cang and the others who had made no progress to go back to the serious crime team for redeployment. He felt that they were not far from the truth.
Several people quickly rushed to the serious crime team, and Cao Cang and his team quickly rushed back.
"Boss, why did you suddenly let us come back? Did you make any new discoveries?"
Cao Cang was a little confused, so he asked Gu Nankai as soon as he entered the door.
Gao Yuan was the first to smile triumphantly and briefly told them about their trip to find Zhang Xuan. Afterwards, Cao Cang and the others also understood the general developments and were also a little excited.
"So are we only focusing on Zhang Xuan now?"
Cao Cang asked immediately.
Gu Nankai nodded: "Yes, since Zhang Xuan knew Huang Minghao and disappeared after Wu Mengjie's accident, I think Zhang Xuan must know why. Now she thinks the murderer has been caught and has let down her guard. The first thing she has to do is to destroy the weapon she used to kill Wu Mengjie."
"Obsidian knife."
Shang Lu said quickly, and Gu Nankai nodded: "Yes, it is the obsidian knife, and everything related to Wu Mengjie's death, so now, we will catch her in a jar!"
"good!"
No one spoke yet. Li Meng, who had been silent all this time, got excited when he heard that someone was going to be arrested. He suddenly shouted. Everyone was stunned and then burst into laughter.
After a brief smile, Gu Nankai rearranged the tasks: "Cao Cang, you and Li Meng go keep an eye on Zhang Xuan. If she makes any move, notify me immediately."
Li Meng and Cao Cang quickly received their mission and left. Gu Nankai said, "Gao Yuan, you and Shang Lu stay in the serious crime team and investigate Zhang Xuan's background. Teacher Wu and I will go find Zhang Xuan's family. I remember she has a mother."
Gao Yuan and Shang Lu had no objection to Gu Nankai's arrangement. Not long after they came back, they talked to each other and continued on their journey.
"Can we find any clues at Zhang Xuan's home?"
After getting in the car, Wu Qingluan was a little suspicious of their behavior and asked while starting the car.
"It's hard to say. Maybe we can get some clues about Zhang Xuan's feelings for Wu Mengjie at her home. She is a very smart person. Judging from her behavior at school, there won't be any clues. In this case, her home is the most likely place."
Gu Nankai thought for a while, and finally said solemnly.
Wu Qingluan didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said , so she just drove away.
According to the investigation, Zhang Xuan's home is in a village, which is not too far to drive there. However, Longhai has been developing in recent years, and the terrain of their village is dangerous. Many people in the village have moved out one after another. There are not many people left, most of whom are elderly people who are unwilling to leave their hometown. The two asked several people before they found out the location of Zhang Xuan's home.
"It's weird. Didn't they say Zhang Xuan and her mother? Why are these people saying that Zhang Xuan is the only one at home? It sounds like her mother doesn't want her either.
Wu Qingluan felt something was strange. They asked several people, and when they finally found someone, that person said that Zhang Xuan had not had a easy life these years. Her father no longer wanted her and her daughter when she was young. When Zhang Xuan grew up, her mother also left, leaving Zhang Xuan alone here, feeling very pitiful.
Gu Nankai also found it a little strange. They had roughly understood it at the beginning. The information they got from Zhang Xuan's file was that Zhang Xuan lived with her mother. It was just that no one suspected her at the beginning until later when the investigation was linked to her. It had only been two days, so it was not surprising that they didn't know the reason.
