Chapter 703 Guo Xiujuan’s concerns!

After everyone left Zhang Hu's house, Chen Weiguo thought about how Guo Xiujuan seemed to be hesitant to answer Jia Dongming's question just now, and couldn't help but whispered to Jia Dongming, "Captain Jia! Guo Xiujuan obviously didn't tell the truth when she answered your question just now. If I'm not mistaken, she should know something about the situation in the black market."

Jia Dongming nodded in agreement when he heard Chen Weiguo's reminder, and replied with a smile: "Captain Chen! I wonder if you still remember what Guo Xiujuan said before? She told us that she once asked Zhang Hu about the identity of the black market boss. Not only did Zhang Hu not tell her, he even warned her not to ask about it, and said that it would bring trouble to the family. I guess she was worried that her two children would be retaliated by the black market boss, so she deliberately concealed some key information."

When Chen Weiguo heard Jia Dongming's reminder, he remembered what Guo Xiujuan had mentioned to them before. He nodded in agreement and replied, "Captain Jia! You are right. It seems that if we want to investigate the black market situation from Guo Xiujuan, we can only choose another opportunity."

When Jia Dongming heard Chen Weiguo's answer and thought about Guo Xiujuan going to the police station to collect the body, he immediately said to Chen Weiguo, "Captain Chen! Didn't Guo Xiujuan say that she was going to collect Zhang Hu's body? When she arrives at the police station, take her directly to the office and ask her about the black market."

Chen Weiguo nodded in agreement when he heard Jia Dongming's proposal, and replied with a smile: "Director Jia! When Guo Xiujuan comes to the branch to collect Wang Hu's body, I will ask Guo Xiujuan about the specific situation."

"Captain Jia! Captain Chen! I know Xie Jianchang. Are you going to his house first? Or are you going to Gui Laoqi's house first?" Qian Jin, a police officer from the police station, thought of what Jia Dongming had just introduced to Guo Xiujuan at Zhang Hu's house, and immediately asked Jia Dongming and Chen Weiguo.

Chen Weiguo heard Qian Jin's question and asked Jia Dongming with a smile: "Captain Jia! What do you think, should we go to Gui Laoqi's house first? Or should we go to Xie Jianchang's house first?"

After hearing Chen Weiguo's question, Jia Dongming pondered for a moment and said to Chen Weiguo in a serious tone, "Captain Chen! Gui Laoqi is a very cautious person. I guess even if he doesn't know that he has been exposed, he will not choose to sit at home and wait for us to catch him. So I think we should go to Xie Jianchang's house first. After all, our Xie Jianchang also earns fees in the black market, so he should be very clear about the situation in the black market."

When Qian Jin heard what Jia Dongming said to Chen Weiguo, he immediately said to Jia Dongming, Chen Weiguo and others, "Captain Jia! Captain Chen! Let's set off to Xie Jianchang's house without further delay."

A group of six people rode on two sidecar tricycles. Led by Qian Jin, the tricycles stopped at the gate of a large courtyard. Qian Jin led Jia Dongming and others into the courtyard. The women who were chatting in the courtyard stopped chatting when they saw Qian Jin and others coming. They looked at the people who walked into the courtyard from outside with curiosity. One of the elderly women asked Qian Jin enthusiastically, "Public Security Qian! How come you have time to come to our courtyard today?"

When Qian Jin heard the aunt's question, he immediately smiled and replied, "Aunt Zhou! We came here specifically to find Xie Jianchang to find out some things. Is he at home today?"

When several middle-aged women in the courtyard learned that the police officers in front of them were looking for Xie Jianchang, they all turned their attention to one middle-aged woman.

When the old lady learned the purpose of Qian Jin and others' visit, she immediately showed a worried expression on her face and asked Qian Jin, "Qian, the police officer! Our Jianchang hasn't caused any trouble recently. What do you want to see him for?" When Jia Dongming heard the old lady's words and saw her worried expression, he immediately guessed that she must be Xie Jianchang's mother. He smiled and said to the old lady, "Auntie! We are not here to arrest Xie Jianchang, but to find out something from him."

Xie Jianchang's mother realized that the police were not here to arrest her youngest son. She felt relieved and quickly introduced them to Jia Dongming and the others, "Comrade police! My son Jianchang had a few drinks this afternoon and is sleeping in his room now. Please wait for a moment. I will help you wake him up."

Xie Jianchang's mother pointed at the dustpan in her hand, quickly stood up from the low stool, then turned and walked into the house, shouting to Xie Jianchang who was sleeping in the inner room: "Youngest! Youngest! Wake up! Qian from the police station is here, and he wants to talk to you about something."

Xie Jianchang, who was sleeping, learned that the police were looking for him. His instinctive reaction was to run away. When he jumped out of bed, he saw Jia Dongming, Qian Jin and others standing at the door of the room.

Seeing Qian Jin and others blocking the door, Xie Jianchang's face showed an expression that was uglier than his parents had died. He asked Qian Jin with a fake smile: "Qian Public Security! I haven't caused any trouble outside recently. What do you want to talk to me about?"

When Jia Dongming heard what Xie Jianchang said and saw his guilty expression, he smiled and said to Xie Jianchang's mother, "Aunt! We need to find Xie Jianchang to find out some information. I wonder if you can step aside for a while."

Xie Jianchang's mother saw that the police were not here to arrest her youngest son, so she finally put her mind at ease. She also reminded Xie Jianchang, "Youngest son! If the police want to ask you anything, you should cooperate with them."

Jia Dongming, who was standing nearby, waited until Xie Jianchang's mother left the room before turning his attention to Xie Jianchang. He said to him seriously, "Xie Jianchang! Zhang Hu was killed. Do you know about this?"

"What! Master Hu was killed. When did this happen?" Xie Jianchang, who was wondering why the police came to find him, showed an incredible expression on his face when he heard Jia Dongming say that Zhang Hu was killed, and blurted out to Jia Dongming.

Seeing Xie Jianchang's reaction, Jia Dongming immediately determined that Xie Jianchang was indeed unaware of Zhang Hu's murder, and then introduced to Xie Jianchang: "Xie Jianchang! This incident happened the night before yesterday. Zhang Hu was stabbed in the throat, and the murderer also drained all the blood from his body."

When Xie Jianchang learned that Zhang Hu died from a cut throat, he immediately thought of Gui Laoqi. An unprecedented sense of fear instantly enveloped his heart, and he quickly explained: "Comrade Public Security! I haven't seen Master Hu for three or four days. If I hadn't heard from you that Master Hu was dead, I'm afraid I would still be in the dark about him being killed."
