Although the reward was conservatively estimated to be more than 100 million, everyone in the special investigation group knew that it was just Li Beini's self-consolation.
How could a few special investigators from the Criminal Division find the treasure that couldn't be found even after 80 years of effort?
So, regardless of Zhao Yu's reminder, everyone understood that solving the murder of the five experts and finding the murderer was their key task!
Only by finding the murderer could they obtain new clues about the treasure case. At that time, even if it was still impossible to find the treasure, they would at least be able to submit a satisfactory answer to the Secret Service.
Hence, from the beginning of the investigation, Zhao Yu and the others focused on solving the murder case! After all, it was their job to find the murderer.
However, regarding the expert's murder case, there were obviously unprecedented difficulties! Whether it was the bizarre way the old experts died or the confusing reason for their murder, it cast an inexplicable shadow over the case.
According to the file, when the Secret Service discovered 5.
After the death of the expert was suspected of murder, a wave of in-depth investigation was launched. However, even though they used the most advanced investigation methods, they did not find any obvious clues.
It was conceivable that the ability of the murderer to evade the tracking and investigation of the Secret Service must be extraordinary. For the lower level Criminal Division, this was no doubt an even more difficult task.
After thinking about it, Zhao Yu felt that if he wanted to solve the case, he had to start from the cause of the murders. Only by finding out why the five experts were killed could he hope to continue the investigation.
If he wanted to find out the reason, the List of Thief Kings was obviously very important. So, Zhao Yu turned his attention to Cui Lizhu.
"Ah? What do you mean? " Cui Lizhu was shocked. She hurriedly put her palms together and defended herself. "Boss, you have to speak with your conscience! I've told you everything I know! If you dare to hide anything, may the heavens strike you with five thunders, and you will be caught trying to pry open the door! "
"Go away …" Zhao Yu frowned and said seriously, "I'm serious! What I mean is, it's not that you're hiding something, but perhaps there are some details that you've overlooked?
"Li Jing is right. After all, you are the closest person to the King of Thieves in this world. Although he doesn't discuss anything with you, if you think about it carefully, can you remember some important details that you have overlooked?"
"Hmm … You … You mean …" Cui Lizhu found it hard to accept.
"Sigh!" Zhao Yu turned around and looked at the case whiteboard again. He said meaningfully, "Actually, I have some understanding of your industry! If it was a petty thief, he might be able to commit a crime alone! But … at the level of the King of Thieves, he would definitely have companions!
"Lil 'Cui, think about it carefully. Can Tao Xiang really complete all the large-scale robberies he has committed in the past by himself?"
"You mean … my dad has an accomplice!?" Cui Lizhu was shocked and her eyes widened.
"Not only does he have an accomplice …" Zhao Yu pondered. "This accomplice may be very unusual! Little Cui, answer me. What's the most difficult part of a major theft? "
"Hmm …" Cui Lizhu rolled her eyes and immediately replied, "Of course! Of course, it's to get information! Information is the most important thing! If I can't get any reliable information, I won't know what to steal even if I have all my skills. "
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded. "With Tao Xiang's ability, carrying out a theft isn't the most difficult part! The most difficult part is how to get detailed and reliable information! "
"Hmm … So … So …" Cui Lizhu thought about it carefully and felt her blood begin to boil.
"We …" Zhao Yu pondered for a moment, then said to everyone, "We have to analyze the major crimes that Tao Xiang has committed in the past and see if he really has such a well-informed accomplice.
"Also …" Zhao Yu said to Cui Lizhu, "Write down the specific location where you and Tao Xiang used to live. I will send someone to investigate the scene and see if there is anything else that Tao Xiang left behind."
"Oh … Okay … Oh!" Cui Lizhu suddenly remembered something. "In my rented apartment in Jinping, there are some things that my dad left behind …"
"Okay!" Zhao Yu nodded. "I will inform Li Luoyun later! Also … "Zhao Yu patted Cui Lizhu's shoulder." Next, I need you to calm down and recall every little detail of your life with Tao Xiang.
This time, you need to be more detailed than when we were looking for the gemstones. Don't miss out on even the slightest expression or movement! Especially … "Zhao Yu paused, then said," When you and your father were in the Golden City, recall carefully. Did you come into contact with anyone at that time? Your father's accomplice might have entered your line of sight, but you didn't notice it! "
"Hmm … I understand what you mean!" Cui Lizhu nodded. "Don't worry, I will try my best to recall! Actually … I used to suspect that my dad might have some powerful team or accomplice, but I never thought about it carefully! "
"Yes! From obtaining information, to carrying out the theft, to finally selling the stolen goods, even if he is the king of thieves, it is impossible for one person to control a complete chain of theft! " Zhao Yu nodded. "If we can find someone who knows Tao Xiang, maybe we can figure out what the list is all about!"
After Cui Lizhu agreed, she immediately picked up a pen and paper and went to work according to Zhao Yu's instructions.
Looking at Cui Lizhu's positive attitude, Li Beini quietly approached Zhao Yu and whispered, "Senior, do you suspect that Tao Xiang's accomplice is also someone from the system? Is he also from the Secret Service? "
"Good job, Beini!" Zhao Yu smiled and praised her. "It seems that I have found the right person this time! Yes, I did have such a suspicion. When Tao Xiang was at his peak, he often appeared and disappeared mysteriously, committing one incredible theft after another. I think that if there was no expert behind him, he shouldn't have been able to get away with it!
However, whether he is from the Secret Service or not, it is hard to say! "
"I agree with you! I don't think Tao Xiang was fighting alone. It was because his mysterious accomplice's identity was kept a secret that he didn't even tell Cui Lizhu! " Li Beini said seriously. "Maybe the list was obtained by this mysterious accomplice. Either they are working together to find the treasure, or they want to use Tao Xiang's intelligence …"
"Beini, these are just speculations. We can't jump to conclusions yet." Zhao Yu shook his head. "Actually, if we look at the other case, we might be able to speculate a general framework!"
"Oh? Which case? "
"The Gem Theft Case!" Zhao Yu said to Li Beini as he walked over to a blank whiteboard. "You see, before the Tamil Star was stolen, Tao Xiang had been doing well. He frequently committed major theft cases, from private vaults, museums, diamonds, gold, art … No matter what he stole, he never made a mistake!
However, who would have thought that the king of thieves would end up losing his life because of the Gem Theft Case! The buyer almost killed Tao Xiang and even injured his head. In the end, he became a psychopath! " Zhao Yu analyzed. "The most important point is that, in the Gem Theft Case, Tao Xiang suddenly used his long-lost senior, Li Fei! Beini, how is it? Did you find anything? "
"This …" Li Beini tried to follow Zhao Yu's train of thought, but she was still one step behind.
"Let's assume that Tao Xiang really had a great accomplice who could not only get information but also help Tao Xiang avoid the police! Then, in the Gem Theft Case, why did Tao Xiang go to Li Fei for help? "Zhao Yu asked.
"Oh … Something happened!" Li Beini suddenly understood. "Either something happened to Tao Xiang's mysterious accomplice, or they broke up and no longer cooperated with each other! That's why Tao Xiang went to Li Fei for help! "
"That's more or less what I mean!" Zhao Yu nodded. "But I hope that it was because they broke up. That way, we would at least have a chance to find this accomplice. But, if this person is no longer around, it will be difficult to find the list! "
