Chen Gu and Yang Gaoyong felt a bit awkward. What's wrong with this guy? Has he watched too many old movies from the ho planet era?
The vast majority of those old movies have been obliterated by the disasters on the ho planet, with very few surviving, yet there remains a group of dedicated followers.
Chen Gu waved his hand and said, "It's not that serious. First, let ask you: in Wuzhaoyin City's Second Prison, who do you think is the biggest and main culprit of this case?"
Bardes furrowed his brow, "This... the evidence is insufficient..."
Chen Gu interrupted him, "We don't need evidence. Just tell your intuition!"
Yang Gaoyong hesitated beside them: Previously you lectured about not having preconceived notions, yet now with Bardes, you're asking for his intuition. Your investigation style is quite unpredictable, sir...
Bardes imdiately replied, "Warden Guo Daoqian."
"Why him?" Chen Gu quickly probed. "All current data suggests Guo Daoqian appears more like a puppet, sitting in that position idly awaiting retirent. He never interferes with prison managent; everything is managed by Deputy Warden Olaska and Guard Captain Cao Bo, who collude and act freely without oversight."
Bardes said, "Although there's no evidence, and Guo Daoqian might not visit the prison more than a few tis a month, I consistently feel that the entire prison is secretly controlled by a large unseen hand."
Bardes added, "You requested my intuition, and that's it. I always feel Olaska and Cao Bo lack that capability, and if it were them, then there would be two black hands."
Chen Gu nodded and said, "Prepare yourself; tonight we'll pay a visit to Guo Daoqian."
Bardes' eyes lit up, while Yang Gaoyong hesitated again, "Captain Chen... there's no evidence linking Guo Daoqian to this case, our actions here don't adhere to protocols. Moreover, although Guo Daoqian is retiring in prison, he was born and bred on Empire River Star, with friends and connections spread everywhere, so in key positions. Even on Capital Star, he has substantial relations..."
Chen Gu chuckled and handed Yang Gaoyong a list, "Are these the people?"
The list detailed the nas, positions, and relationships of seven people with Guo Daoqian, with comprehensive data.
Yang Gaoyong was stunned montarily; clearly, Chen Gu hadn't asked soone to investigate after hearing "Guo Daoqian" from Bardes. It could only an Chen Gu was already prepared beforehand, harboring suspicions about Guo Daoqian. It implies that the previous questioning of Bardes was just a small test.
For a massive entity like the Bureau of Mystic Security, what does a Guo Daoqian count for? His lifelong dedication to building a vast, daunting network in Wuzhaoyin City is troubleso to handle, but to the Bureau's level, it's at most considered a rather robust... spiderweb.
Bardes, without any subordinates, followed Chen Gu and Yang Gaoyong alone. The three of them found a place to have dinner—Bardes and Yang Gaoyong were dumbfounded watching Chen Gu eat as if he were a bottomless pit, all the food prepared for hundreds was consud by him bit by bit.
This was a restaurant with excellent business, not overly high-end, but once Chen Gu began feasting, the restaurant soon halted operations—all the food supplies prepared were completely devoured by Chen Gu alone.
Seeing that it was about ti, Chen Gu waved his hand, "Alright, let's stop eating for now."
Bardes: "..."
Implying he's not full yet, just out of ti to eat. Bardes had encountered many "eccentric people," but today he saw soone eat based on ti for the first ti.
Guo Daoqian lived in a self-built small courtyard in the suburbs of Wuzhaoyin City.
As the three arrived outside the courtyard, images suddenly surfaced chaotically in Bardes' mind. He abruptly stopped the two companions beside him, blurting out, "Guo Daoqian is about to head out."
Just as he spoke, two beams of car light flashed from the courtyard garage, followed by the courtyard gate opening, and a low-key, unassuming magnetic levitation car slowly drove out, then accelerated into the air.
Yang Gaoyong looked at Bardes in surprise, only to find Chen Gu's face remained calm, as if understanding sothing.
Chen Gu asked Bardes, "As a police officer, your surveillance skills are up to par, right?"
Bardes confidently smiled, "No problem, leave it to ."
The trio's magnetic levitation car quietly followed along.
