Chapter 286: Climbing the Wall to Investigate a Case
"Let's go to her house and take a look. I also find it a little strange."
Gu Nankai pondered for a while and felt that something was wrong. He quickly told Wu Qingluan something, and the two of them immediately went to Zhang Xuan's house along the route they had found out.
When they arrived at her door, it was closed. Wu Qingluan frowned and felt a little embarrassed, but Gu Nankai looked around and suddenly smiled: "It looks like we can climb over the wall to get in."
After he finished speaking, he quickly glanced at Wu Qingluan, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes: "Teacher Wu, do you think you can do it?"
But Wu Qingluan rolled her eyes when she heard what he said, looking down on him. Before Gu Nankai could react, Wu Qingluan had already taken off her small bag and threw it across the wall without any regrets. Then she rolled her eyes at Gu Nankai and snorted coldly: "Just knock it, we have practiced it before."
Gu Nankai was a little surprised, and felt a little expectant but also a little curious. Soon, he saw Wu Qingluan take a few steps back, gather her strength, and suddenly run forward. Using the force, she jumped onto the wall. She quickly grabbed the edge of the wall with both hands, and then pushed upward with force. In an instant, she had flipped over.
The movements were so smooth and flowing that Gu Nankai was really stunned.
He never knew that Wu Qingluan had this ability.
Is this still the Wu Qingluan he knows? Is this still the cold and arrogant beauty Wu Qingluan? This is not it!
"Hey, Gu Nankai, why don't you come over? Are you scared by me?"
Just when Gu Nankai was stunned, Wu Qingluan's voice came from inside. If you listened carefully, there was pride in her voice, as if she had expected that Gu Nankai would be stunned.
Gu Nankai came back to his senses from her words, quickly responded to her twice, and jumped in immediately. For a student who graduated from a police academy, this was just a trivial matter for him.
After he landed and brushed off the dirt on his body, Gu Nankai looked at Wu Qingluan. Seeing that she looked calm and composed, he suddenly didn't dare to look her in the eye. He looked away and pretended to be observing his surroundings, but still said, "Your skills don't look like you developed them in one day."
Wu Qingluan was stunned, as if she didn't expect that he was asking her. Just now he turned his head away with a nonchalant look on his face, and she thought he didn't care at all. When she heard him ask this, she paused and smiled: "My brother taught me when I was a child. In order to save my life, I didn't like to learn from others, and of course I didn't like this, but my brother forced me to do it. I don't know how many tears and pains I earned to get to this point today. I didn't expect that I would really use it today. I thought I would never use this hidden skill in my life."
As she finished speaking, she felt a little nostalgic, as if she was thinking of something unhappy, but she quickly adjusted her mood: "Okay, let's take a look and see if we can find anything, otherwise it will be difficult to do anything after dark."
Seeing that she was not interested in talking about the past incident, Gu Nankai thought that it seemed to have something to do with Zhao Binglin, so he did not ask any more questions and nodded as she spoke.
Zhang Xuan's family is a typical rural family. There is a yard through a door with three houses. In addition, there are rough pig pens and chicken pens built by themselves. It seems that the family also raised dogs, and you can even see the shadow of the doghouse. There is a small garden that is casually fenced off, but it is now overgrown with weeds. It can be imagined that it has not been taken care of for a long time.
"This place... probably hasn't been inhabited for a long time."
Wu Qingluan also looked around the place, then turned to Gu Nankai and said.
Gu Nankai frowned slightly and did not answer Wu Qingluan's words, but it could be seen from his eyes that he and Wu Qingluan had similar ideas. The two of them walked forward and pushed open the door of the main house.
When they stood at the door, they were both stunned.
What is going on here?
It clearly looks like no one lives here outside, but it's different inside. It looks like someone lives here. It's tidy and you can tell at a glance that someone definitely lives here.
But looking at this...
The owner only came back occasionally to stay for two days. Judging from the water cup on the table in the living room and a pair of slippers at the door, it seemed that the owner was away for only two or three days.
"It should be Zhang Xuan."
After the initial surprise, Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan walked in. After some observation, Gu Nankai expressed his guess. Wu Qingluan was a little surprised and frowned at him to express her inquiry.
Gu Nankai smiled and pointed in a certain direction behind Wu Qingluan. Wu Qingluan turned his head suspiciously and suddenly understood.
It turned out that there was a small clothes hanger next to the window not far away, with a few clothes hanging on it. They were probably brought in by the owner when he left because he was afraid it would rain outside. Judging from the style and size of the clothes, they were exactly what Zhang Xuan should wear at her age.
"This dress is not cheap, Gu Nankai."
Wu Qingluan quickly walked over and took a look, and immediately found the problem.
Gu Nankai quickly followed her voice and walked over. He didn't know much about the brands and clothes that girls liked, but looking at what Wu Qingluan and Shang Lu wore on a daily basis, he had a rough idea of their quality. Moreover, when he thought about what he saw Zhang Xuan, he could tell at a glance that the quality of the clothes she wore was not of the same level as the clothes here.
"It seems we have come to the right place."
Gu Nankai smiled softly, and just as he finished speaking, the phone rang. In this quiet space, the two of them were shocked and laughed again. How could he scare himself?
Gu Nankai quickly answered the phone. It was Gao Yuan calling.
"Boss, big news! Guess what I found out!"
As soon as the phone was connected, Gao Yuan's excited voice was heard, so loud that it almost pierced Gu Nankai's eardrum.
"Tell me about it."
Gu Nankai moved the phone away from his ear and turned on the speakerphone button to ensure that Wu Qingluan could also hear Gao Yuan's voice.
"I found out why Zhang Xuan wanted to kill Wu Mengjie!"
Gao Yuan's voice came again. Wu Qingluan and Gu Nankai looked at each other, their eyes lit up.
"Do you still remember the man Ye Lanqing mentioned? He's the man who has always liked her!"
Gu Nankai's mind moved, and he suddenly thought of something. Soon Gao Yuan's voice came over: "I found out that the man is Zhang Xuan's father!"
Now all the problems seemed to make sense. Even though Wu Mengjie had helped Zhang Xuan a lot, the hatred for Wu Mengjie in Zhang Xuan's heart was hard to dispel.
"I see."
Gao Yuan on the other end of the phone talked about some specific circumstances, confirming that Zhang Xuan's father abandoned Zhang Xuan and her mother because he had someone else in his heart, causing difficulties in life for both mother and daughter. However, Gao Yuan was unable to find out where Zhang Xuan's mother was now.
After learning this, Gu Nankai hung up the phone. The two of them pondered for a while face to face. Wu Qingluan first raised a question: "Gao Yuan said that he couldn't find out the whereabouts of Zhang Xuan's mother. What do you think?"
In fact, Gu Nankai was also thinking about this problem in his mind at this moment. According to Gao Yuan's ability, finding someone was basically a piece of cake. But now that he couldn't find anyone, he suddenly had a bad idea in his mind.
When his eyes met Wu Qingluan, Wu Qingluan seemed to have thought of the same idea in his mind and was startled. The two of them stared at each other for a long while. Wu Qingluan murmured in disbelief: "I think it's unlikely..."
Nothing is impossible. In this world, everything is possible.
What Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan had just thought of was that since they couldn't find anyone on the plateau, Zhang Xuan's mother was most likely killed.
