Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Ma Zhen asked. In fact, if it weren't for Lin Ran, he wouldn't be able to remember Chen Cheng's name.

"Yeah." Lin Ran nodded, "Actually, I'm looking for him."

Immediately afterwards, he told Ma Zhen what happened in the museum, and the latter's expression gradually became serious, losing his previous cheerful attitude.

After Lin Ran finished explaining the ins and outs of the matter, he said seriously: "Ma Zhen, I'm here today to talk first. Please do me this favor. I want to find him."

He believed that with Ma Zhen's intelligence network in the capital, he should be able to find this person.

Who knows, Ma Zhen laughed directly after hearing this.

"Hahaha, Lin Ran, do you think of me as a private detective or a gangster?"

"Isn't it?" Lin Ran asked with raised eyebrows.

"Then you are thinking wrong. I only have a few shops in Dongcheng District. I can send someone to help you ask about the situation, but don't have too much hope in me." Ma Zhen said, "I I am just a person who likes to open a shop. I know some people in the antique circle. As for you saying that you think my information is very broad, that is definitely your misunderstanding. It just happens that the people I know are the people you are looking for. "

Lin Ran didn't expect Ma Zhen to be so humble. Could it be that he had guessed wrong?

Ma Zhen said: "But don't worry, I will help you as much as possible, and speaking of which, I still owe you a favor."

"But you want to find clues from Liuyunbao City. I think this is impossible." Ma Zhen said, "Since the auction, Liuyunbao City has had a daily passenger flow of about 10. From the time you left to It’s been more than ten days now.”

You must know that Liuyunbao City is not actually a scenic spot, so it is naturally impossible to register the identity of everyone who enters and exits.

If you want to find one of these tourists, the difficulty is indeed no less than finding a needle in a haystack.

"I will try my best to help you, but I may not be able to help you find him." Ma Zhen said.

"Then there's Brother Lao Ma." After Lin Ran finished speaking, he felt a little want to laugh, especially when he remembered that Ma Zhen asked him if he thought he was a private detective. To be honest, he really had this idea before, because Ma Zhen It always appeared at inexplicable times, and every time it appeared, it was very crucial. He thought it was done deliberately, but he didn't expect it to be a coincidence.

But what he said makes sense.Since the last auction, Liuyunbao City has made a name for itself in Dongcheng District, and the number of customers has increased.

This is just an ordinary commercial area, and everyone can come and go at will, except that names will be recorded when buying cultural relics in antique shops.

So the help Ma Zhen mentioned was to go to the antique store and ask if a person named Chen Cheng had any purchase records in their store recently.

In fact, this is already open to the Internet. The antique store must protect the privacy of every customer, and being willing to tell him this is for Ma Zhen's sake.

There is also a premise for this, that is, Chen Cheng did not use a pseudonym to make purchases.

In this era, there are no cameras, let alone the Skynet system.

If a person leaves Liuyunbao City, if you want to track him, you will have to send someone to follow him all the time.

It is naturally impossible for someone who has not paid attention to him before to spend such effort.

Lin Ran had a headache. It seemed that it was not easy to find someone in the capital. When he returned, he had to ask Yang Jianlong to use his connections.Help find it.

Ma Zhen gave some suggestions at this time.

"Lin Ran, although I may not be able to help you, I actually have some experience in finding people."

Hearing this, Lin Ran smiled.

Although Ma Zhen is usually a serious person, he is quite trustworthy when he is serious, and it can be seen that he is quite concerned about this matter.

Although he said that he was unwilling to help himself, his body was still quite honest.

Ma Zhen said: "If you want to find him, you can try offering a reward."

"Reward?" Lin Ran remembered that when he lived in the city, someone would post photos of pets on the bulletin board of the community, and then add their own mobile phone numbers to exchange money for information about lost pets.

"I don't have a photo of him in my hand." Lin Ran said with some embarrassment.

"Haha, don't tell me you can't draw." Ma Zhen said.

"I'm afraid it's difficult to draw the essence, but it's an idea." Lin Ran accepted his proposal. He did not have photos in his hand, but if he had worked in the Palace Museum, he should have photos, right?I just hope he hasn't changed too much in the past few years, otherwise the old photos won't be useful.

Lin Ran still had a vivid memory of his appearance. He was a memory expert.

It's just that it's still difficult to draw it completely.

This proposal could be used as a backup plan, and Lin Ran accepted his suggestion.

Next, Ma Zhen came up with other ideas.

"He will most likely stay in a hotel in the capital." Ma Zhen continued.

You need to register your identity when checking into a hotel, although you may use a fake identity. After all, the management in this era is not particularly strict, or it may be that you have just emerged from an extremely strict environment.

If you want to stay in a hotel somewhere else, you need a pass.

"You can start from this point." Ma Zhen reminded Lin Ran.

Indeed, in this day and age, if you want to go out of town, you usually need a pass to check into a hotel.

Therefore, the front desk status of most hotels is very high. They can even use their personal interests to directly block others and prevent them from checking in. As a result, many conflicts have occurred.

If we start from this point, it is indeed possible to find Ma Zhen quickly.

Although he doesn't know anyone from several hotels, Yang Jianlong may have connections in this area. If he asks him to look for them, the success rate should be much higher.

Lin Ran nodded and approved Ma Zhen's proposal.

"Ma Zhen is still a professional." Lin Ran smiled slightly. He was indeed very good at finding an entry point in the chaos. Perhaps it was precisely because of this characteristic that he thrived in both the capital and the port city.

Ma Zhen nodded, and did not look complacent because of the praise, but said seriously: "This method is indeed feasible, but it takes too much time."

"There is no way. The teacher wants to see him, so I have to find him as much as possible." Lin Ran replied. He also understood that it would not be easy to check the hotels one by one, and it might cost a lot of money. If you ask Yang Jianlong, you can get the money yourself, and you can't just sit back and enjoy it.

"Ma Zhen, thank you very much for your advice." Lin Ran expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
