Chapter 209: Boyfriend

Gu Changzheng glared at him upon hearing this. Although this fell under the jurisdiction of the fire department, he still wanted to lecture him, but at that moment, the phone in his bag rang.

"Hello! Old Zheng, any new discoveries?" The call was from the forensic doctor, Old Zheng.

"Hmm! Your intuition is spot on! You're starting to sound like our old captain!" Old Zheng on the other end sounded somewhat excited and blurted it out. Gu Changzheng knew the "old captain" he referred to was his own master, Lu Haoxuan, and he was momentarily speechless. Old Zheng on the other end seemed to sense the shift in his mood, felt a bit awkward, and fell silent for a moment before saying again: "Your judgment was correct. The deceased did indeed go to meet someone, and we can now confirm it was a man!"

"Hmm!" Gu Changzheng didn't seem surprised at all, waiting for Old Zheng to continue. Old Zheng, not receiving any further questioning, sounded a bit disgruntled: "There was male bodily fluid left in the deceased's private parts, proving that she had just had sexual intercourse with someone before she died!"

"Oh?" Gu Changzheng raised his voice: "Great! Get the DNA tested immediately! That person must be related to the death of Lou Zhen!"

Old Zheng snorted: "Do I need you to tell me that? You'll have the results tomorrow. How are things on your end?" He was referring to the investigation of the scene.

"Let's talk later; I'm still investigating. Hurry up with that DNA!" Gu Changzheng urged him again.

"I know! I'll be as fast as I can!" Although Old Zheng had a cold exterior, he was truly a dedicated and excellent forensic doctor.

With this discovery from Old Zheng, Gu Changzheng became even more certain of his deduction: Lou Zhen had been meeting her lover here. He just didn't know why—perhaps the two had an argument, and the other party accidentally pushed her off, or perhaps that person had long wanted to kill Lou Zhen for some reason and chose to meet her here, lure her to the roof, and then push her off when she was off guard?

He shook his head, feeling that these speculations had too many loopholes. However, once the identity of the man she met here was discovered, these questions would be easily resolved!

By this time, it was already 9:30 PM. The few tables of diners who hadn't left the restaurant due to the jumping incident finally departed. During this time, some hotel guests had also checked out early due to the incident. Boss Tian looked at the departing guests with a mournful face and couldn't help but anxiously bow repeatedly to Gu Changzheng: "Captain Gu! Look, look at this! Sigh! When will you be able to..."

He didn't dare to finish the rest of his sentence. Gu Changzheng said: "You better hurry up and dismantle that iron door on the fire escape! If this reaches the fire department, you'll be shut down for who knows how long!"

Boss Tian knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare say anything else, forced to accept his bad luck.

Meanwhile, Gao Ye's team, who had been conducting door-to-door interviews in the surrounding area, returned. After two hours of interviews, there were basically no valuable leads. Liu Han's team also found nothing from the surveillance footage. After the jumping incident occurred, the diners on the first to third floors of the restaurant had basically all left; the few tables that remained were acquaintances of Boss Tian who had already eaten half their meal and felt too embarrassed to leave. The guests in the rooms on the fourth to eighth floors, including those who checked out early, had all been screened, and no suspicious individuals were found.

After warning Boss Tian, Gu Changzheng had Liu Han take away all the hotel's surveillance video recordings from the past week before leaving the hotel.

But none of them noticed that the extremely honest and simple floor supervisor, Huang Li, seemed to let out a huge sigh of relief at this moment!

Seeing that the police had withdrawn, Boss Tian also left the hotel in low spirits. At this time, the ground-floor restaurant was preparing to close. Huang Li looked around to see that there was no one left, returned to the duty room on the 6th floor, sat on the small bed inside, and reached out to pat her chest, seemingly still feeling lingering fear. Seeing that there was no one else around, she took a small mobile phone out of her pocket and dialed a string of numbers with a "beep-beep-beep-beep." After a while, the call went through, and she hurriedly whispered coquettishly: "Oh my! I was scared to death today. You tell me, why am I so unlucky? I just got a key made for you, and she had to come here to seek death!"

It was unclear what the person on the other end said, but the young girl slightly frowned and said: "I told the police what you taught me, but you better not be lying to me. The key hasn't left your possession, right?"

The person on the other end might have said some sweet nothings, as a flush suddenly appeared on Huang Li's face. She whispered: "Yes, yes! I know, the police definitely won't ask me again. Besides, that woman jumping off the building has nothing to do with us. It's just that from now on, I don't dare, I don't dare to do that with you on the roof..." The rest of her words were almost inaudible.

The person on the other end might have coaxed her a few more times. Huang Li nodded repeatedly with shy delight and hung up the phone with a smile, not expecting that at this moment, the door to the duty room would be pushed open with a "whoosh!"

Huang Li was startled. When she looked closely, it was the policewoman who had just questioned her and the middle-aged police officer who habitually hunched his back.

The people who arrived were Gu Changzheng and Wu Yan. It turned out that when questioning Huang Li, Gu Changzheng noticed how she referred to Lou Zhen in one of her sentences; she called the Lou Zhen who jumped off the building "Auntie." This made Gu Changzheng suspicious. After Lou Zhen jumped, she was smashed into such a state that even if an ordinary person stood in front of her, it would be difficult to judge her age. Furthermore, after subsequent questioning, Huang Li had been upstairs the whole time and had never gone down. Moreover, the information passed on by the crowd who saw Lou Zhen jump was just "a woman jumped off the building," and no one mentioned her age. So, how did Huang Li know Lou Zhen's age and directly call her "Auntie"?

According to Gao Ye's report, after he found the key-making stall that Huang Li mentioned, the stall owner said he recognized the girl who came to make the key because she had made several keys at his place! This made Gu Changzheng even more suspicious. In order not to alert Huang Li, Gu Changzheng deliberately acted as if he had no doubts about her. Sure enough, seeing that the police had no doubts about her, Huang Li's spirit suddenly relaxed! When Gu Changzheng announced they were leaving the hotel, she was the most relaxed among the hotel staff!

But Gu Changzheng always believed that this girl could not be the murderer of Lou Zhen, let alone the person Lou Zhen wanted to meet. Although she was also from Diannan, she was likely just a pawn used by someone else.

To verify his deduction, he and Wu Yan didn't actually leave the hotel but quietly followed Huang Li until she entered the staff duty room on the 6th floor!

Seeing Wu Yan and Gu Changzheng push the door open and enter, Huang Li was so scared she didn't know what to do. Wu Yan stepped to her side and snatched the phone from her hand. Only then did Huang Li react, and she began to tremble all over!

Gu Changzheng sat on a chair opposite her, looked at the panicked Huang Li, and said slowly: "You know Lou Zhen? Then who were you calling just now?"

Huang Li burst into tears with a "waa." Wu Yan originally had a good impression of this young girl, but she didn't expect to be deceived by her. She couldn't help but feel a bit annoyed and shouted sternly: "Stop crying! Confess honestly! Who did you call?"

"My, my boyfriend!" Huang Li was so frightened by Wu Yan's shout that she stifled her sobs and said chokingly. ===== CHAPTER 210 =====
