"Hello, how are you..."
The sudden answering of the phone made everyone present stunned.
Even Su Ming, who was holding the phone, raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that the call would be answered, and even... answered so quickly.
At first, he had no hope that the call could be connected, thinking that it was most likely an invalid number.
But the result was indeed unexpected. Not only did the call go through, but it was also answered very quickly.
But Su Ming was not panicked at all. He immediately sorted out his thoughts and spoke slowly in a normal and calm tone.
"Hello, are you the water leak repairman?"
"Fix the leak?" the person on the other end of the line asked back, and then immediately raised the volume.
"Who gave you the phone number? I stopped doing this half a year ago. You can find someone else..."
"By the way, I have the phone number of another craftsman here. I'll recommend one to you. He has good skills and can provide at least a ten-year warranty. I learned from him in the beginning."
Don’t want to do this job anymore?
This sentence made Chen Sheng and Xu Changsheng, who were standing next to them, frown at the same time, and they felt a little disappointed in their hearts.
Although they had no hope at first, the moment the call was connected, both of them were secretly looking forward to it... Then the ghost answered the phone.
However, when the man on the other end of the phone said so much and even planned to introduce other people to Su Ming.
Both of them had clearly determined that the person who answered the phone was definitely not the ghost they were looking for.
However, judging from the fact that the call was connected immediately and the fact that this person happened to have done water leak repair work before.
Maybe we can really find other information about ghosts from it.
When the two of them were still thinking.
Su Ming had quickly sorted out his thoughts and continued speaking in a voice that had not changed much.
"Other people? Are they reliable?"
"By the way, Master, why are you quitting? I heard from my neighbor next door that you are very good at fixing leaks. The place you fixed for him two years ago has no problems now."
It's obvious.
After confirming that the person who answered the phone was not the ghost you were looking for.
Su Ming did not give up hope. Instead, he began to try various rhetoric routines to try to get specific details.
Since the repair work was not going to be done, why did the car end up in the hands of the ghost?
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone seemed to be completely unaware of Su Ming's intention, and then sighed helplessly.
"Hi."
"Ever since CCTV made a false report about us, saying that we are the Luzhou Leak-Fixing Gang, which specializes in swindling people, and that we move from place to place after we make a move, and that we can get a ton of gold as soon as the machine goes off."
"This business is getting worse day by day. Sometimes there is no business for a week. How can we continue like this?"
"Brother, just say... your neighbor has not had any problems in the past few years. Can we be cheating? How can we solve the problem without spending money? How can it be so good?"
"I really forced other people out of their jobs. My car happened to be stolen half a year ago, so I don't do this anymore. I just make random things."
"Forget it, I won't say anything more."
"Please add me on WeChat. This phone number is WeChat. I'll send you my cousin's contact information later. He has good technology, so there will definitely be no problem."
"It's okay if it's a little more expensive, as long as the job is done well, don't you think?"
The words fell.
Su Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately answered without hesitation.
"The car was stolen?"
"No, Master, the car was stolen? Who stole it? Didn't you call the police? And you are so good at repairing leaks, are you really not going to do it anymore?"
"Who stole it? Is that person also fixing the leak now? How come his repair skills are not as good as yours..."
"No, why are you asking so many questions?" The big man on the other end of the phone finally became a little impatient, and then seemed to have thought of something.
"How would I know what someone is going to do with a stolen van?"
"Also...are you going to fix the leak? Or are you just like those media outlets that only report those untrue news..."
Before the man on the other end of the phone could finish speaking.
Su Ming spoke directly, interrupting his subsequent words without hesitation.
"No, that's not the case, Master."
"I'm just asking casually. I'm worried that if the leak can't be fixed properly, it will be even more troublesome to repair it later."
"Okay, I'll add you on WeChat now."
"The water leakage at home is getting worse and worse. We really need to find someone to fix it quickly."
After saying that.
Su Ming hung up the phone without hesitation, rubbed his chin gently and thought for two seconds, then looked at Chen Sheng who was standing in front of the projector.
"Director Chen."
"This phone number is not a virtual number. Let the police officers from the Criminal Investigation Technology Division locate it."
"Please ask this person to come to the police station and have a thorough understanding of the situation. In the brief conversation earlier, it was clear that there are still some things that have not been dug out."
"First of all, he is absolutely lying."
"It's possible for other car owners to have their cars stolen, but it's absolutely impossible for this leak-fixing gang to have their cars stolen."
"Because they move from place to place after each job, they don't rent any houses at all, and most of them even eat and sleep in their vans."
"In this case, I don't know...what kind of method would a ghost have to steal his van and drive away in broad daylight?"
"And judging from what he said just now, he probably didn't call the police. Would a normal person just let his car get stolen?"
"It's obvious that he's lying. The car was probably sold second-hand."
Speaking of this.
Su Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, and then continued to speak.
"If the car was sold second-hand, why didn't this person remove the phone number and information on it?"
"If you buy it through a second-hand channel, you will tear up these things to avoid exposing your personal information, right?"
"That means that this transaction was probably very urgent, so he didn't have time to deal with the red advertisements."
"Or...the buyer specifically asked him not to tear it off?"
"Then, since it's a used car, even if the ownership is not transferred, do we still need to determine who the buyer is? Is it possible that this person has seen a ghost?"
"Finally... although he just said something righteous, the Luzhou Leakage-blocking Gang has long been notorious, and is basically spread across various provinces and cities in the form of relatives helping each other."
"Under normal circumstances, I would never rashly sell the van that provides meals, let alone sell it to unrelated strangers and let them all come to grab the food."
"So, maybe we can really dig out other intelligence or information about ghosts from that person just now."
"Of course, considering Ghost's usual caution, the possibility may not be very high, but at least... there is indeed a chance."
This moment.
Chen Sheng didn't have time to think about it. When he saw Su Ming's determined eyes, he immediately took out the mobile phone in his pocket and dialed the internal number of the Criminal Investigation Technology Department.
"Help me identify a person and send someone to find his location as quickly as possible."
"In half an hour."
"I want to see him in the brigade's mediation room..."
