The hectic work had begun. As the saying went, one man had three helpers. As soon as he got to work in the afternoon, Liang Huan went to the national DNA database to do a DNA comparison. Zhang Jingfeng helped the Missing Persons Department with Liang Sisi's portrait. Once it was done, it would be sent to the entire country.
Zhao Yu was not idle either. He sat in front of his office desk and flipped through the files of the Mianling Case again and again, trying to find some clues.
To make it easier for him to think, he also began to put information and clues on the whiteboard, trying to replicate the miracle of the Lost Hand Case.
In the end, Zhao Yu was even more exaggerated than Qu Ping. He took out six whiteboards in one go, and recorded the information of a victim on each one. In the end, the entire back row of the office was occupied by him! Anyone who came in would be shocked by the power!
Of course, he was not the only one working hard. The Key Case Investigation Unit was sent out to look for clues. From the families of the victims, to the investigators, to the eyewitnesses, anyone that could be thought of was being investigated.
Such an influential case was naturally of an unprecedented scale.
After the case analysis meeting, the police representative finally called for a press conference to explain the situation to the public. On one hand, they hoped that the informed public could help the police provide clues, and on the other hand, they expressed the police's determination to get to the bottom of the case, vowing to bring the murderer to justice!
Although the case received a lot of attention, the police press conference was very short. They only explained the situation, expressed their determination, and ended it hastily! They did not reveal any details to the outside world, including the missing body of one of the hostages.
Zhao Yu did not see it with his own eyes, but he heard from others that when Liang Sisi's family found out that the child's body was not found, they almost broke down! It was as if their hearts had been placed on a frying pan, and they were being repeatedly tortured to the point that they wished they were dead.
Some people said that no news was good news. However, for these family members who had been waiting for 26 years, sometimes, bad news was also a kind of good news! Just like the other parents, they could at least collect their children's bodies and let them rest in peace!
But what about Liang Sisi's parents?
They had to wait anxiously. Who knew how long they would have to wait? If there was no news for the rest of their lives, would they be able to die in peace?
Because of this, Mister Tao was so excited to give Zhao Yu the bag of ransom money!
That day, Zhao Yu got off work very late. When he left, he was alone in the office. After pondering over the information for the whole afternoon, Zhao Yu had a deeper understanding of the case.
The Mianling Kidnapping Case was indeed the number one cold case in Qinshan! The murderers were meticulous and had very few flaws. Back then, the police had put in so much effort, but they still could not find any clues, let alone now, 26 years later!
This case was much harder to solve than the Slaughter Case! The Slaughter Case had happened ten years ago. At least at that time, there were already cameras and some advanced technology.
But the Mianling Case was different!
There were no surveillance cameras, no fingerprints, and no DNA. The only clues came from some witnesses that year!
However, time forgot love. Even love could be erased by time, let alone other things. Twenty-six years had passed, and the world had changed. Evidence was reduced and ineffective. There were no crime scenes, and many witnesses were no longer alive!
Now, apart from the corpses, they had almost nothing!
Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!
Looking at the whiteboard, Zhao Yu felt a deep sense of helplessness. If he could not even find a breakthrough, then … no matter how powerful the miracle system was, he would not be able to solve the case!
Could it be …
Would the final result be as the leader had said, "all bark and no bite"? After a long time, would people once again forget about this major case?
When the east was dark, the west was bright. Sometimes, life was like that.
Even though Zhao Yu had not made any progress in the investigation, everything else was going smoothly, and he was getting better.
He did not know if the intense battle with Yang Hong and Huahua last night had made the two ladies addicted, or if the ladies just wanted to thank Zhao Yu, but they had called early in the morning to invite Zhao Yu to a candlelit dinner at home, to spend time with the three of them!
"Time with the three of them?!"
The term sounded playful and ambiguous, making one's imagination run wild.
Thinking back to the storm on the bed last night, Zhao Yu could not help but wonder if Jiang Dafeng would really go crazy if it happened again today.
When he got home, Yang Hong and Huahua were already waiting for him with everything prepared. But what surprised Zhao Yu was that it was not a world of three, but a world of four. More accurately, it was a world of four people and a dog!
Other than the dog Daheng, there was also a red-haired girl.
Yang Hong introduced the red-haired girl as Xiaomei, one of their good friends. She lived downstairs.
Since they were neighbors in the same unit, Zhao Yu had naturally seen the girl before, and immediately greeted her.
Xiaomei was not tall, with waist-length wavy hair. Her fiery red hair gave off a passionate and intense vibe. Her attire was also particularly enchanting and sexy. She wore a hollowed-out white shirt and a pair of low-waisted denim jeans. She had a slim waist, and her belly button was exposed.
Xiaomei's personality was befitting of her attire. She had already heard about Zhao Yu's heroic rescue of the damsel in distress. After greeting him, she could not wait to pounce on Zhao Yu. She called him Bro Yu this and Bro Yu that. She even used her sensitive chest to rub against Zhao Yu's body, making Zhao Yu very uncomfortable.
If it had been a normal person, this would have been a form of enjoyment, but Zhao Yu was different. He had interacted with women like this too many times in his previous life. Not only was he numb to it, but he also hated it.
Zhao Yu purposely got up to pour a glass of wine and pushed Xiaomei away.
Under the candlelight, the wine glass was crystal clear, and the unknown red wine looked very classy. Zhao Yu poured half a glass and drank it in one gulp.
In order to make Yang Hong and Huahua feel at ease, he told them all the news that Director Lu Zhaohong had told him that day.
It turned out that Chahai Street's Hong Zhitao had already been officially charged with many crimes. According to Director Lu's estimates, he was involved in picking a quarrel, intentional assault, gambling, prostitution, and many other crimes. If he was sentenced, he would have to spend at least seven years in prison!
Furthermore, when Hong Zhitao was down, not only did his subordinates scatter like monkeys when the tree falls, but many of the big bosses in the world also came to fight for his territory and divide his power! Even if he got out of prison, he would not be able to do anything!
So, Yang Hong, Huahua, and even Zhao Yu did not have to worry about this person coming back for revenge!
Cheers!
After completely resolving their worries, the few of them were naturally more relaxed. Zhao Yu and the three beauties had a candlelight dinner together. Candlelight flashed, and laughter was endless.
Eating steak, salad, spaghetti, drinking red wine, tasting ice cream, and bragging to the beauties, Zhao Yu felt happy and carefree. He felt as if he had traveled back in time!
However, his previous idea of driving Jiang Dafeng crazy did not become a reality. Before dinner was over, Yang Hong received a call and left with Xiao Mei.
Without a doubt, she had gone to work!
Only Zhao Yu and Huahua were left in the house. Huahua was charmed by Zhao Yu, and kept sending flirtatious glances at him. Not only did she tell him a bunch of adult jokes, but she also used her words and body to seduce him.
Zhao Yu knew that Huahua had already been conquered by him, both psychologically and physically. He could do whatever he wanted with the girl now.
But facing the young, beautiful, and proactive girl, Zhao Yu really did not have any feelings for her. In the end, he rejected her good intentions and went home alone.
First, he really did not have any feelings for Huahua. Second, because of Huahua's special profession, he did not want to have any emotional entanglements with the girl. Third, he had a case to investigate, and his mind was not here.
As for the fourth point … His mind was always thinking about the valiant Miao Renfeng. It was as if he was lovesick. His heart could not contain any other woman, not even Yao Jia!
Sigh! He wondered how Miao Ying was doing. Had the Phaeton and the fight been settled? Would he have a chance to see her again?
Seeing that Zhao Yu was determined to leave, Huahua could not force him to stay. She only told Zhao Yu that they had already put the two thousand yuan in the washing machine! She said that they would not take the money. If it was not for Officer Zhao's help, they would have been played to death by Hong Zhitao!
