Director Gu's face darkened. He stared at the photo in his hand for a moment, then turned to his desk and made a phone call. "Are you a note taker? I need someone to record the clues provided by concerned citizens."
Soon, the young policeman who had picked up Zhang Jingchu came over, took the recorder, and sat next to Yu Sui. Director Gu asked a question, Yu Sui answered, and the recorder wrote it down.
At first, Chief Gu asked about the previous topic to make it easier for the police to record it. Then, Chief Gu asked, "What is the license plate number you saw? Do you remember it?"
Yu Sui: “Remember. 01-****”
Director Gu: "It seems like a long time has passed. Why do you still remember it?"
"Because this number is very similar to the train I'm going to take, I remembered it."
"Do you remember what that person looks like?"
"I remember. And I can draw it."
Director Gu looked at Yu Sui in surprise, then raised his finger to Zhang Jingchu next to him and said, "Your study is good. That's great. Come on, draw it for us."
Yu Sui drew a sketch of a person based on her memory on a piece of letter paper handed to her by Director Gu, and also noted the person's approximate height and weight, and what his accent was like.
The surprise on Director Gu's face never faded, and he praised Yu Sui endlessly:
"You're such a jerk, little idiot! Hey, are you and Jingchu both from the same university? If you weren't from Qinghua, I would have recommended you to study at the University of Political Science and Law. It would be great if you could join our team after graduation. Look at your vigilance, your logic, your memory, your drawing skills. Wow, I've never met such an outstanding young person!"
Director Gu praised her continuously, and Yu Sui felt a little embarrassed for being so shameless. Just when she was about to say something modest, Director Gu directed the young police officer who was recording the clues:
"Hurry up and go to the vehicle management office first to find out who this car belongs to. Then we can come up with a plan to find the driver. After all, this is a murder case, so we have to be extremely cautious. Without any solid evidence, we absolutely cannot let anyone else know about this."
The young policeman saluted briskly and ran out.
Yu Sui looked at her husband Zhang Jingchu.
Zhang Jingchu first gave Yu Sui a thumbs-up, then immediately said to Director Gu, "Uncle Gu, see how much I care about your work. As soon as I heard a little bit about something related, I brought the person to you. You have to reward me!"
Yu Sui was stunned: “…” That’s amazing!
This girl is really capable. She didn't mention it when she came here, but now she is asking for benefits from others, and she does it so perfectly. She is really awesome.
Director Gu was not surprised by this and smiled: "Yes, yes, Jingchu is really dedicated to your uncle's work. Regardless of whether the person Yu Xuexue mentioned is suspicious or not, your spirit of always looking for clues for me is really good. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Zhang Jingchu smiled at Yu Sui before saying to Director Gu, "We're from the History Department. How about you lend me your 718 building pass for two days?"
Upon hearing this, Director Gu first leaned back exaggeratedly, then pointed his finger at Zhang Jingchu: "Girl, you're waiting for me here! How about this, I'll lend it to you today. If the clues your student provides are useful, I'll lend it to her for a day as well. How about that?"
"Uncle Gu is so nice!" Zhang Jingchu praised sweetly, and then spread out her hands: "Give it to me, then I'll leave and not bother you."
"You little girl, it's mine. Here you go."
Director Gu was helpless. He unlocked the drawer of his desk, took out a small red box, and handed it to Zhang Jingchu.
Zhang Jingchu grabbed Yu Sui and left: "Come on, I'll take you to a nice place."
Yu Sui was confused: "Hey, where are you taking me? I have to go. I have children."
Zhang Jingchu walked downstairs quickly:
"You bumpkin, it seems you don't know about the 718 building. I'll give you one chance. When you get to the gate, you can decide whether to go or not. If you come with me today, it might help with your studies. If you don't go today, and then you find out about the 718 building, you can't complain that I didn't take you."
Everyone is curious, and Yu Sui is no exception. After hearing what Zhang Jingchu said, Yu Sui hugged her arm and said coquettishly: "Then please tell me, you can't deliberately hide it from me like this, what exactly is this 718?"
Zhang Jingchu said mysteriously, "I won't tell you. If you go, you'll know. If you don't go, I don't know how to explain it to you."
"This..." Yu Sui felt itchy, but looking at Zhang Jingchu's arrogant expression, she finally stomped her feet and said, "Go away! Let my son cry. He has four women around him at home anyway!"
"Hahaha, hurry up and go. I promise you won't regret it. But wait a minute, you have to come with me to another place to get some money first."
"Huh? What on earth are you going to do? To the casino?"
"Casino? You're quite the thinker. But, that place does have a bit of a gambling feel to it."
"What exactly is it? You've almost given up on this suspense, haven't you?"
"Don't ask. It's almost one o'clock now. We have to hurry, otherwise they will be closed soon after we get there."
Zhang Jingchu almost ran as she rushed to the gate, then waited for the bus. After riding for three or four stops, she dragged Yu Sui off the bus and walked to a gate with a sign that read "Statistics Bureau." She told Yu Sui, "Wait here for a minute. I'm going inside to borrow money from my uncle. Don't leave."
She went to the security guard to make an internal call.
Yu Sui stood at the door, with more and more doubts in her heart.
What on earth does this girl want to do?
What exactly is the 718 Building used for?
Yu Sui was not idle. She ran to the security guard and acted cute to the security guard with curly hair: "Uncle, do you know the 718 building?"
The old man put his hand to his ear and said, "What? Eat a pack of Dalu? Dalu cigarettes?"
Yu Sui: "No, it's the 718 building!"
Grandpa: "Oh, I understand. A building for eating buns? There is no building here that sells buns."
Yu Sui: “…” Okay, I was wrong!
Let’s just forget it.
Fortunately, Zhang Jingchu came out soon.
The girl had a black leather bag in her hand and raised it to Yu Sui with joy. "Let's go to the building now and take the e-Mule! It's my treat!"
E-Mule is a small yellow three-wheeled van that runs on diesel.
Zhang Jingchu stopped a car on the side of the road, pulled Yu Sui in, and said to the driver, "Go to Xisi Outer Street."
Yu Sui raised an eyebrow.
This address seems to be next to the Forbidden City.
Where is this girl going and what is she doing?
But now that it has come to this, Yu Sui just makes the best of it.
