Staring at the man on the screen, Chen Ge connected all the strange actions together, and his fingers tightened.
Without saying a word, he stood inside the office and took out his phone to call Inspector Lee from Western Jiujiang's police station.
"Uncle San Bao, I want to call the police!"
"One, the police number is 110, so calling me is pointless. Two, call me Inspector Lee." The phone rang twice before it was picked up, and Inspector Lee's hoarse voice came from the other end.
"I've found the last person who escaped from Ping An Apartments! He's been to New Century Park! "
"Are you sure?" Inspector Lee's voice changed when he heard that.
"It has to be him. Don't drive the police cars over to avoid alerting him."
"I'll be there in fifteen minutes!"
After hanging up, Chen Ge held the phone, his eyes still glued to the screen.
The staff at the side noticed something was wrong and quickly called Uncle Xu over.
"What's going on?" After a while, Xu Shu walked in with a water bottle. "You can't even have a proper meal. Xiao Chen, why are you here instead of going back to your Haunted House?"
He walked to the side of the monitor, and when he saw the phone in Chen Ge's hand, he asked tentatively, "Who were you talking to earlier?"
"The police."
Chen Ge did not turn around as his eyes moved between the monitors. "They'll probably be here in fifteen minutes."
"The police? Why didn't you discuss something so important with me? " Xu Shu's voice suddenly rose. "The park has a perfect plan to deal with natural disasters and malicious incidents …"
"Xu Shu." Chen Ge turned to cut Xu Shu off. His eyes were calm, but there was an indescribable chill in his pupils. "Someone wants to kill me!"
Once he said that, the control room became silent, and all the workers turned to look at him.
"Chen Ge, you've been stuck inside the Haunted House for too long, haven't you?" Xu Shu did not even bother to call him Xiao Chen and called him by his name. "What are you talking about in broad daylight?"
"I helped the police solve the case of Ping An Apartments 5 years ago, but there is still one of the culprits who is still on the run."
When Chen Ge said that, Xu Shu understood. "You mean the man sneaked into the theme park? Preparing to take revenge on you? "
"I thought he would flee to other provinces, but who knew he would be so bold." Chen Ge pointed at the man on the screen. "This visitor is behaving strangely. He is wearing long sleeves and a cap, and his face is completely covered. The weather is not cold, but his hands are all inside his pockets. Even when he is smoking or drinking, he only uses his right hand. His left hand has never reached out of his pocket."
"What can this prove? Maybe it's just his personal hobby. "Xu Shu put down the water bottle and closed the door.
"The escaped suspect's name is Zhang Peng. His height and build are almost identical to the man in the surveillance footage, but the key is the tattoo of a peony on the back of Zhang Peng's left hand.
"Peony?"
"When the peony blooms, riches come naturally. The man is a desperate gambler who has lost everything."
"You mean, he is afraid of exposing the tattoo, so he keeps his left hand inside his pocket?" Xu Shu started to panic. "Is it possible that he is just a patient with a skin disease?"
"I have other evidence." Chen Ge switched the footage. "After he entered the theme park, he only played the Ferris Wheel, and he did it three times. Do you know what that means?"
"What does that mean?" Xu Shu could not keep up with Chen Ge.
"The Ferris Wheel is the highest point of view at the theme park. He was looking down at the theme park to plan his escape route." Chen Ge slowed down the footage. "When Xu Wan and I left the Haunted House to go to the canteen, we saw him sneaking toward the Haunted House. He spent the whole morning wandering around the Haunted House, but he did not approach it. He only approached it when the guards left. This is not something a normal visitor would do. "
"That's right." Xu Shu nodded. He felt like Chen Ge had a point. "Then why would he approach the Haunted House when no one is around?"
Chen Ge's fingers tapped on the table. "If I was in your shoes, if I wanted to use the safest method to kill a Haunted House's boss, I would definitely hide inside the Haunted House and when the Haunted House is closed for maintenance, I would catch him off guard and give him a fatal blow. The Haunted House is complicated, and it is easy to hide the body. As long as the blood is cleaned, it will be the next day before the body is found. "
Xu Shu felt a chill run down his spine from Chen Ge's analysis. A scenario was forming in his mind. "That is quite scary."
"It's not that it's scary, but it almost happened!" Chen Ge pulled back his gaze, and his clenched fists slowly relaxed. "Thankfully, he was too impatient, and thankfully, I've run into many strange things recently. I've been on high alert, and that's how I found him."
"Then, where is he now? Do you need me to evacuate the visitors? "Xu Shu realized the severity of the situation.
"He left the park after I found him. At the time, I hadn't seen the surveillance, so I couldn't confirm my speculation, so I didn't stop him."
"You've done a good job. If the suspect went on a rampage inside the park, it would've caused a lot of chaos." Xu Shu took a sip of water and told the worker next to him, "The police will be here soon, so please cooperate."
Ten minutes later, the door to the management room was pushed open, and three men in plain clothes walked in. The one leading the way was Lee Sanbao. "Where's Chen Ge? Let me see the surveillance footage. "
With the help of the worker, Inspector Lee compared the man in the surveillance footage with the picture in the police's database and confirmed that they were the same person!
"Kid, you've done another good job." Inspector Lee hammered Chen Ge's shoulder and took out his phone to contact the police station to report the situation. After some discussion, they decided to split into two groups. One group would investigate in secret, and the other group would patrol the area around New Century Park.
"Zhang Peng is a very dangerous person. You have to be careful of him. The chance of him returning is very high, so I suggest you leave the Haunted House temporarily."
After Inspector Lee said that, all the workers at the office were unsettled, but Chen Ge was very calm. "Without me around, Xiao Wan won't be able to maintain the Haunted House on her own. Once the Haunted House closes, Zhang Peng will notice something is wrong. With how cunning he is, he won't take the bait."
"You mean, you plan to act as the bait inside the Haunted House?" Inspector Lee frowned. He felt that this was too risky.
