The next day, at eight o 'clock in the morning …
In the temporary office of the Special Investigation Group at the Hailan Police Station …
Zhao Yu was woken up by the noise and opened his sleepy eyes.
The high-intensity work from the previous night, coupled with the lack of rest, had caused Zhao Yu's mental state to deteriorate. He didn't know when he had fallen asleep in his seat.
However, he had only slept for less than an hour before he was woken up by a quarrel in the office.
"I'm pretty sure. Just wait and see …" Cui Lizhu said indignantly. "There's definitely something wrong with the killer named Rao!
"Maybe he and Liang Yili colluded long ago. They're in cahoots! The clubhouse incident and the burial of the bodies in the mountain were all Liang Yili's ploy! "
She then added, "In such a situation, we have to teach Rao a lesson. And Boss Ma, he's not a good person either! To deal with such cold-blooded killers, we have to be more cold-blooded than them! "
"Lil Cui, calm down …" Wu Xiumin, who was next to her, said, "Team Leader finally fell asleep. Let him have a good rest!
"There's no basis for your speculation. Don't forget, if it weren't for Team Leader and Sister Miao, Manager Rao would have been killed!
"How could he possibly collude with Killer K?" Wu Xiumin said. "Even if they colluded, they should at least have a clear purpose. It doesn't make sense that they only wanted to find the remains of the victims of the White Bone Case!"
"That's right," Zeng Ke said in a low voice. "The forensics team found some human hair, rotten clothes, and traces of corpse oil in the cave."
"This means that Killer Rao didn't lie. That cave was where they hid the bodies back then."
"But, for some reason, Liang Yili moved the bodies away and placed the remains of the victims of the White Bone Case there!"
Cui Lizhu was still unconvinced. "Then, why did Liang Yili move the bodies away? He had already caused such a big commotion. Was he afraid that we would find the bodies and accuse him of being the killer? "
"Tsk tsk …"
Hearing Cui Lizhu's question, Wu Xiumin and Zeng Ke smacked their lips. Liang Yili's actions were indeed strange. No one could guess what he was trying to do.
"Oh …" Zhao Yu opened his eyes and sat up from the chair.
"Oh, boss," Cui Lizhu realized that she had been rash and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry for waking you up. Hurry up and sleep a little longer! I'll sing you a lullaby! "
As she spoke, Cui Lizhu started humming a tune, but no matter how Zhao Yu heard it, it sounded like she was groping someone.
"Go away …" Zhao Yu pushed Xiao Cui away and asked the others, "What time is it?"
"Eight o 'clock!" Zeng Ke answered quickly.
In fact, Zhao Yu had already looked at his watch when he asked the question. He murmured, "Liang Yili's letter was delivered at ten in the morning. That is to say, there are less than two hours left before the deadline!"
"Yes, but …" Cui Lizhu pouted. "How would we know what Liang Yili is going to do when the time comes?"
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then asked, "Did anything new happen after I fell asleep?"
"At the entrance of the cave where the bodies were buried, we found traces of incense and some unburned candles," Wu Xiumin said, looking at her own information. "It is suspected that when Liang Yili transported the bodies, he held some kind of ceremony, just like the Bone Case …"
"And …" Zeng Ke said, "After the forensic examination, it has now been confirmed that the three incomplete corpses found in the cave match the three corpses in the Bone Case."
"We can confirm the identities of the three deceased." Zeng Ke shrugged helplessly. "Except for the skulls!"
"Two important pieces of news!" Miao Ying suddenly came in from outside with a document in her hand. "First, the killer Rao really did leave evidence against Boss Ma. Based on this evidence, we have already made Ma Hongyi plead guilty!"
"Ma Hongyi admitted that he was the fourth leader of the Snake's Teeth, Abicula! He also admitted that he was the one who arranged the assassination at the club! "
"Ma Hongyi is a cautious person. He has been watching Manager Rao, Cai Xingwen, and the others' every move. When he suddenly realized that Cai Xingwen, Huang Baili, and Xing Fei had disappeared for no reason, he sensed that something was wrong. That's why he killed Manager Rao to get rid of any future trouble!
"But …" Miao Ying glanced at everyone and said regretfully, "He didn't know much about Liang Yili, the killer K."
"Ma Hongyi didn't know that the disappearance of Cai Xingwen and the other two had something to do with K." Miao Ying said. "Although Ma Hongyi was very afraid of K, he couldn't think of a reason why K would go after them!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded and thought for a few seconds. He then asked Miao Ying, "Didn't you just say that there were two important pieces of news?"
"Yes!" Miao Ying said immediately. "The Secret Service sent me a piece of news. They sent a group of people overseas and found a small island where people believed in Potuo Sect. They also learned about Potuo Sect from the locals.
"Killer Rao was right. In Potuo Sect, there is indeed a saying of gathering bones to summon souls." Miao Ying took out a document and said, "They worship white bones and value the integrity of the bones when they are buried!
If a disabled person passes away, the family will usually find similar bones or put them together with other people's bones. " Miao Ying said. "So, the white bone case that Liang Yili committed must have been to summon the soul of the owner of the skull!
"But …" Miao Ying pointed to somewhere in the document and said, "They also found out something about summoning the soul of the owner of the skull.
When the Potuo Sect summons the soul of a white bone, they need to perform the ritual for 49 days before they can be buried. They believe that this is the only way to eliminate the resentment of the deceased! "
"Oh …" Cui Lizhu swallowed and said timidly, "In other words, Liang Yili needs to perform the ritual for the owner of the white bone for 49 days in a row before he can be buried?
"No wonder Liang Yili didn't rush to deal with the white bone even though it had been put together successfully!"
"Resentment … What resentment? Wu Xiumin pondered, "Could the resentment of the dead be the answer that Liang Yili wants us to find?"
"The key is …" Zeng Ke said, "We have to at least know who the owner of the skull is."
"Almost!" Zhao Yu said with certainty. "If I'm not wrong, the owner of the skull is undoubtedly Yu Zhengran's granddaughter!"
"Huh? But … "Cui Lizhu frowned." Why? K killed her family's killer, and even if the killer saw K kill her, even if she was alive, she couldn't be with K, right? That's not only unreasonable, it's even unethical! "
"Leader Zhao," Miao Ying pondered, "You mean … K didn't really kill Yu Zhengran's granddaughter, but he kept her alive and took her away? But … Why would he do that? "
"I don't know," Zhao Yu said seriously. "But I know that since K spent a lot of effort to move the bodies of Yu Zhengran's family, it means that the white bone case must have something to do with the Yu family!
"According to the age of the skull and DNA analysis, I can only come to this conclusion!" Zhao Yu said. "If the owner of the skull is really Yu Zhengran's granddaughter, then everything seems to be explainable!"
"Think about it," Zhao Yu said. "If you are Yu Zhengran's granddaughter, then what is your biggest resentment?"
"Ah …" Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Cui Lizhu, who was smart, was the first to exclaim, "Revenge!
"Her resentment was to kill all of the murderers who massacred her family back then and take revenge! So … "Cui Lizhu said, trembling." That's why K killed Cai Xingwen and the others! Besides them, there was also the killer Rao and Boss Ma! "
"That means … His purpose is …"
Ring ring ring … Ring ring ring …
At such an exciting moment, Zhao Yu's phone suddenly rang. As soon as the ringtone rang, Zhao Yu was startled.
This ringtone was specially set for Liang Yili's phone number.
