At ten o 'clock the next morning, outside the courtyard of a seaside villa in the western suburbs of Hailan City.
Zhao Yu sat in the driver's seat of a police car and said to Miao Ying over the phone, "Don't worry about the leaders. Just take care of them. You know me, I really don't want to deal with them!
I, the great detective Zhao, am such a famous person, so I have to put on airs! Let the mayor, senior officials, and the like line up first! "
"Okay, I'm really impressed!" Miao Ying said helplessly. "I may be sick. Why do I like your arrogant and shameless attitude? Sigh! "
Miao Ying sighed and hung up the phone.
Putting the phone in his pocket, Zhao Yu did not rush to get out of the car. Instead, he picked up a glass of Coke and took a few sips. He was still reminiscing about last night's fight. He felt that it was not enough.
After more than ten minutes, he drank all the Coke. He glanced at the system in his brain again. When he saw that the hexagram area was gray, he could not help but feel a little pity.
If he could get a hexagram from solving the Bone Case, he would have earned enough points to upgrade the system, in addition to getting a lot of devices.
Unfortunately, the system was still frozen and would not be thawed for more than a week. As for the points column, because he had used more than 1,000 points, he was a lot further away from upgrading the system.
Hopefully … Zhao Yu prayed in his heart. Hopefully, the next case could wait until the system was unfrozen!
Thinking of this, he finally opened the car door and came to the door of the villa.
At the moment, there were several police cars parked outside the door, and many police officers were going in and out of the door.
The owner of the villa was the leader of Snake's Teeth, Abicula, who was also the owner of the club.
Zhao Yu had chosen to come here today not because he wanted to, but because he had been called by Special Agent Xiao Hang. Xiao Hang had said over the phone that he had something to talk to him about.
Zhao Yu knew that if the captain of the Secret Service wanted to talk to him, it would not be a small matter. That was why he had postponed the meeting with the local leaders and come to this place.
"Hello, Detective Zhao!"
"Hey, Detective Zhao, you're here?"
"Detective Zhao, can I take a picture with you?"
"…"
Now that the White Bones Case had been solved, Zhao Yu had become a celebrity in the Hailan Police Force. Every police officer who saw him would greet him respectfully, and some even took the initiative to take pictures with him.
However, as soon as the police officer who wanted to take a photo took out his phone, he saw a person walking quickly in the yard. He had no choice but to quickly put his phone back into his pocket and go back to work.
"Old Zhao, you sure are arrogant!" It was Xiao Hang, who had a bandage on his shoulder. As soon as he saw Zhao Yu, he said to Zhao Yu, "You arrived a long time ago, but you took so long to get out of the car. Were you waiting for me to greet you personally?"
"I'm having breakfast!" Zhao Yu came up to Xiao Hang, patted his good arm, and said bluntly, "But don't try to get close to me. I'm the famous and beloved detective Zhao. Is it appropriate for you to call me Lao Zhao?
"Besides, even though I've contributed a lot and my rank is high, I'm not that old. If you call me Old Zhao again, I'll flip out!"
"…" Xiao Hang blushed with embarrassment.
"Wahaha …" Zhao Yu patted his arm again and laughed. "I'm just kidding! Can't you tell? Wahaha … "
Zhao Yu's maniacal laughter crushed Xiao Hang's aura to pieces. For the captain of the special agent team, he had never feared anyone as much as he feared Zhao Yu.
"Well, detective Zhao, let's talk inside! I really can't get away today. "Xiao Hang pointed to his injured arm." I didn't even have time to go to the hospital to change my dressing!
Otherwise, I would have come to you in person. How could I trouble you to come here in person? "
"It's okay, it's okay!" Zhao Yu quickly waved his hand and pointed to the villa in front of him happily. "I was just about to ask you if Abicula's mansion will be auctioned off according to the law after the case is closed.
"This villa is great," Zhao Yu whispered in Xiao Hang's ear. "When it's auctioned off, sell it to me at a lower price!"
Xiao Hang's face was as black as charcoal. He said with an embarrassed expression, "Don't joke around. I'm not in charge of auctions! I think we'd better get down to business! "
With that, Xiao Hang led Zhao Yu into the villa and into the luxuriously decorated hall.
At that moment, the hall was a busy scene. The police officers were carefully searching and rummaging for something.
Among them, Zhao Yu saw a few familiar faces. They were all agents under Xiao Hang. Because he had beaten them up in Feng Ping, when they saw Zhao Yu, they all averted their eyes, still fearful of him.
"Come, this way!" Xiao Hang led Zhao Yu to a corner of the living room and whispered to him, "Detective Zhao, you must understand why Officer Miao sent me here for the bone case, right?"
"Of course I understand," Zhao Yu said naturally. "He's afraid that if it were someone I don't know, I would bully him!"
"Ahem …" Xiao Hang coughed a few times and said, "In that case, I'll be straightforward. I know that half of your identity now belongs to the Secret Service!
"So …" He pointed to the villa hall in front of him and said, "We need you to help us here!"
"Here?" Zhao Yu glanced around and saw that the police officers were carefully rummaging for something.
"For us," Xiao Hang said bluntly, "the biggest reward we got from the Bone Case was capturing Abicula alive!
"After all, he was the leader of Snaketooth, so he should know a lot of information that is very important to us. This information …" Xiao Hang said seriously. "It's not just about crime!"
"Oh … I see!" Zhao Yu said, his eyes shining. "You called me here to tell me that I've made a great contribution to the Secret Service besides the bone case, right?
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and apply to the higher-ups to give this villa to me! "
"Ahem …" Xiao Hang almost choked on Zhao Yu's words. He quickly grabbed Zhao Yu's arm and said, "Detective Zhao, stop fooling around. I called you here because I really have something important to discuss!"
"I know," Zhao Yu said with a smile. "How can I not understand what you're trying to say? You just want me to help you study this Abicula, right?
"Catch a toad and squeeze him until he pees, and try to dig out all his secrets as much as possible?"
"Well … Something like that!" Xiao Hang quickly wiped the sweat off his forehead and explained, "Abicula confessed his murder and admitted his identity, but he didn't mention anything about Snaketooth. He didn't say a word about it.
"And from what I heard, he seems to be fearless!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded and said, "I see. He must be like La Kong, trying to negotiate with us again to be a witness, right?"
"Not just that!" Xiao Hang said seriously. "This Abicula was able to get out of the purge unscathed, so he must have a way to save his own life.
"According to La Kong's confession, he suspects that Abicula had a lot to do with the destruction of Snaketooth!
"So, we have reason to suspect that he must have something special in his hands!
"Compared to La Kong, Abicula is more cunning," Xiao Hang said worriedly. "I think he wants to use his information to exchange for freedom!"
"That won't do!" Zhao Yu finally understood why Xiao Hang was so anxious. "This bastard killed people like flies and is full of evil. If we make a deal with him, how can we face the innocent victims?"
"So …" Xiao Hang pointed to the hall again.
