Chapter 774: Discovering a loophole



Zhou Luancheng was quite surprised to see Zhou Shixun in the office: "Brother? When did you come back?"

"Morning."

Zhou Shixun gave a simple answer and went straight to the point: "When Momo was taken away, the only suspect was the fortune teller. Was there no other discovery?"

Zhou Luancheng also knew the purpose of his visit, and asked Zhou Shixun to sit down first: "At that time, I also suspected whether he had accomplices, but the fortune-teller's social circle is very small, and he hardly interacts with people. Basically, there are some people who come to him for fortune-telling."

"And I have also investigated several people who often seek his fortune-telling, and there is nothing wrong with them."

Zhou Shixun frowned: "Where does he live?"

Zhou Luancheng shook his head: "He lives in the yard in front of our house. This must be a coincidence. He had already rented a house there before we moved in."

Zhou Shixun was silent for a while: "When did he rent the house?"

"Last October."

Zhou Shixun raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Luancheng: "Last October, we knew that we would move out of the compound. Could it be that the fortune-teller knew at that time that we would move to this compound, so he rented a house in advance?"

Zhou Luancheng was stunned for a moment: "No way? I checked and he had no connection with our family before."

Zhou Shixun shook his head: "I have seen him. I saw him before your sister-in-law got sick."

Zhou Luancheng knew that Zhou Shixun was talking about the last time Sheng Anning was unconscious for several days, and he couldn't help but frowned: "Has he seen it so long ago? But why is he staring at us?"

Zhou Shixun couldn't guess either: "I haven't figured it out yet, but I'm sure that this fortune-teller is not simply trafficking children, and he didn't intend to make it impossible for us to find Momo."

If one really wants to make a child disappear, Momo will not be found.

Zhou Luancheng instantly felt like he had entered a maze, with no clue what to do. He always thought he was calm, but now he couldn't calm down: "What is his purpose? What does he want to do?"

After that, he was deeply annoyed again: "It's my fault for being careless. I thought it was just a very common child trafficking case, and I didn't supervise the fortune-teller strictly enough."

Zhou Shixun shook his head: "I don't blame you, let me see the case file."

Zhou Luancheng hurriedly went to get the file. Later, he looked at it many times but did not find any clues. The only abnormal thing was that the fortune-teller concealed his identity and was hunched over every day, like an old man with a slow heartbeat.

As he opened it and handed it to Zhou Shixun, he said, "The fortune-teller's real name is Li Ergeng. He is from Beijing. His ancestors made a living by fortune-telling. He was a semi-immortal in the past. In those ten years, many typical people like this were arrested. I don't know how he escaped, but he was not locked up."

People like Li Ergeng were subject to strict supervision in the beginning, so it would be abnormal for them not to have suffered any hardship.

Zhou Shixun frowned, took the file and looked at it carefully. Zhou Luancheng still recorded it in great detail, including the footprints left at home and the several times Sheng Anning had met Li Ergeng in the early stage. He also made very detailed records.

While Zhou Shixun was looking through the files, Zhou Luancheng began to recall whether there was anything he had missed.

Zhou Shixun read through the file without missing a single detail, put it down and looked at Zhou Luancheng: "Still no clues at all?"

Zhou Luancheng nodded: "There is no new discovery at present. Li Ergeng seems to have disappeared out of thin air. He has not been found yet. If, as you said, he is targeting us, will he come back? And why did he target our family?"

Unless Zhou Shixun has an old grudge against him, this is obviously impossible.

Zhou Shixun didn't say anything. He slowly packed up the file and handed it to Zhou Luancheng. Then he asked him about every detail of when he found Mo Mo and the details of when Mo Mo was found.

He could have asked Sheng An Ning about Mo Mo's details, but he didn't want Sheng An Ning to recall them again, fearing that she would feel burdened.

Zhou Luancheng carefully recounted what he had seen and known at that time.

Zhou Shixun frowned: "When you arrived at Menggou Village, they had just discovered that Momo was missing? It was only about an hour before and after?"

Zhou Luancheng nodded: "According to Ge Jun's neighbors, this is the case, and those people don't know that Mo Mo was bought by them, so they won't lie."

Zhou Shixun was silent for a moment: "An hour, during which no one saw Momo walking on the road, and no other suspicious vehicles were found. How did Momo get to Jing City? How did he get to the entrance of Bailong Temple?"

Zhou Luancheng couldn't answer it either. This question had been bothering him. He asked very carefully and thought he had left nothing out, but he still couldn't figure out how Mo Mo got to Jing City.

The thought that Mo Mo used his special powers to return to Jing City flashed through Zhou Shixun's mind, but he rejected it. Although Mo Mo had special powers and might be able to transfer to Jing City through space, how could he end up in Bailong Temple?

Mo Mo was not familiar with this place, but it was the place where the fortune teller lived.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shixun stood up and said, "Let's go to the place where Li Ergeng rented before."

Zhou Luancheng had no objection. Perhaps there were clues in the places he had overlooked.

Mrs. Chen saw Zhou Luancheng coming with a man who looked like him. In terms of momentum, this man was more fierce and profound than Zhou Luancheng.

I could also guess that this was Zhou Luancheng's twin brother, and I was muttering in my heart, I have to say, these new neighbors, this pair of twin brothers, look very outstanding.

But there was an impatient look on his face: "What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you about the dead blind man? Who knew he would rent a house under a fake name and do such a heartless thing? I am so unlucky."

The rent for a house was less than three or five yuan a month, but something like this happened. Mrs. Chen felt unlucky just thinking about it.

I don't even want to mention it.

Zhou Luancheng said in a gentle manner: "We are here today because we want you to help recall some details. Li Ergeng is now on the run. If he cannot be arrested as soon as possible, I am afraid he will cause more harm to society."

Mrs. Chen raised her eyebrows and said in a very bad tone: "What does that have to do with me? I have said everything I should say. I have cooperated very well. Why are you still looking for me as if I am the bad guy?"

"It's not that I don't cooperate with you, but I really don't know. You don't have to come again."

As he was about to chase them out, Zhou Shixun suddenly said, "I heard that Li Ergeng brought back a Tai Sui. Where did that Tai Sui go?"

This is also recorded in the archives, but no one mentioned the Tai Sui matter again afterwards.

Zhou Luancheng thought that Li Ergeng must have moved Tai Sui away...
