Kuman Thong was a sacred object from Southeast Asia. It was made of different materials to look like a child and was blessed by monks or mages.
Adopting a Kuman Thong was akin to adopting a child. It could become its master's guardian spirit and help its master succeed in everything and attract wealth and fortune.
In Southeast Asia, adopting a Kuman Thong was very popular.
However, Kuman Thong also had two sides. Some people believed that Kuman Thong was a kind of spell that could control ghosts. It could protect its owner or attack others, so it was dangerous.
Moreover, because the materials used to make Kuman Thong were the hair and ashes of dead babies, it gave Kuman Thong a mysterious aura.
Therefore, when the Kuman Thong murder case appeared, it naturally caused quite a stir in the local area.
According to the police records, the victims of the murder case had the habit of providing for Kuman Thong. After they were killed, the Kuman Thong in their arms belonged to the victims.
The mysterious murderer was extremely cautious. Ever since he started killing, he had never left any footprints, handprints, or images. As a result, the Kuman Thong murder case had always been known as the number one unsolved case in Southeast Asia.
Some people guessed that the Kuman Thong killer wasn't a single person, but a mysterious group.
Some people also believed that the existence of a supernatural event in the case was caused by a mistake in providing for Kuman Thong.
Since then, this case had been the subject of much discussion for more than ten years. However, the local police had invested a lot of manpower and material resources, but they had still found nothing.
Although Zhao Yu had been very busy, he had been paying attention to the case out of his sensitivity as a detective. When he had nothing to do, he would look through the files and make some guesses and deductions.
However, he had never expected that the Kuman Thong murder case would reappear after so many years, and that it would be so close to him.
No wonder Juliet didn't hesitate to call him late at night to tell him the news.
Since the case had happened in the Hong Kong Special District, as a China Sherlock Holmes, he naturally had a unique advantage. He could use the excuse of assisting in the investigation to participate in the case.
Therefore, Juliet was right. This was the best opportunity for him to come into contact with a world-class unsolved case.
If he could really uncover the truth of the Kuman Thong murder case, his reputation would definitely soar, and he would definitely be promoted to a world-class Sherlock Holmes.
But … there was a problem.
Miao Ying was about to participate in the Secret Service's trial, and there was a murder memoir case waiting for him in Yaoming.
So … at this time, what choice should he make?
"Should I go to Yaoming according to the original plan or apply for going to Hong Kong from the Criminal Division now?"
According to Zhao Yu's analysis, if he were to submit an application to Division Chief Jiao, the higher-ups would definitely approve it.
In terms of the impact of the case, there was no other case that could compare to the Kuman Thong murder case.
Moreover, because the case involved a Southeast Asian holy relic, the higher-ups naturally didn't want to cause panic. Hence, it was only natural for them to send Zhao Yu to assist in the investigation.
But … if that happened, the Memoirs of a Murderer would be without a leader. If he and Miao Ying were both gone, would the Special Investigation Group be able to solve the case?
But then again, just like the original choice, the murderer of the Memoirs of the Murderer Case had already been executed. Considering the urgency of the matter, he could naturally delay it …
Just like that, Zhao Yu tossed and turned over the question. After a long time, he finally lay down on the bed and prepared to sleep.
Looking at his watch, it was already past midnight. Today's adventure had already ended.
So, he forced himself to stay awake and opened another hexagram for himself.
In the end, Zhao Yu didn't guess it right this time. The system gave him a strange "Gen Qian Kan Zhen" hexagram.
Tsk tsk …
The reappearance of the "Qian" hexagram alerted Zhao Yu. Although it didn't seem like anything major was going to happen, it indicated that he was going to experience a series of adventures.
The "Gen" hexagram seemed to be reasonable. After all, he had encountered two cases at the same time.
However, Zhao Yu didn't quite understand the "Kan" and "Zhen" that came after.
"Kan" represented a woman, so who would he meet?
Although "Zhen" represented status, looking at the suffix alone, it was enough to show that the hexagram wasn't useless. There would definitely be a major change in his status.
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu analyzed for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. After all, everything about the future was unknown.
However, since there was such a change in the hexagram, Zhao Yu naturally couldn't miss such a good opportunity.
This time, he put in 2,400 points and bet on a 600% completion rate. If the adventure could surpass the completion rate, he would receive tens of thousands of points in return.
On the other hand, he spent more than 1,000 points and stubbornly chose the Universal Sighting Lens.
This time, if his Completion Rate could reach 500% or above, he would be able to get his wish and obtain the tool that he had been dreaming of.
After everything was settled, Zhao Yu put aside his chaotic thoughts and went to sleep.
However, his mind was in a mess, so he couldn't fall asleep at all. So, he had to use an Invisible Sleeping Pill …
…
The next morning, Zhao Yu took advantage of the rare opportunity to drive back to his hometown with Miao Ying to visit his parents and relatives.
While driving, Zhao Yu was still thinking about the problem from the day before. He was wondering if he should report to Division Chief Jiao.
Or, should he talk to his father-in-law and get him to give him an idea? Should he participate in the Murder Recollection or hurry to Xiangjiang to solve the Kuman Thong Murder Case?
"That day …" At this time, Miao Ying seemed to read Zhao Yu's mind and asked curiously, "What did the French woman say to you? You haven't been acting well recently. "
"Huh? Is that so? "Zhao Yu played dumb.
"At the celebration party, I've never seen you so quiet. You didn't brag or talk nonsense. It's obvious that you have something on your mind!"
"This …"
"And your change was after that phone call," Miao Ying asked. "Is there another mission from the Secret Service?"
"No … No …" Zhao Yu pondered for a moment. He felt that the Kuman Thong case wasn't an important secret, so he opened his mouth and was ready to tell Miao Ying.
Unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, Zhao Yu's cell phone suddenly rang.
When he opened it, he saw that the call was from the Central Criminal Division.
Zhao Yu didn't know what was going on, so he answered the call with his Bluetooth headset. After he answered, he heard Division Chief Jiao's voice.
"Zhao Yu, I've just received a notice. You should immediately stop working on the well murder case and hand it over to the local police station!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu was surprised and his heart tightened. "What's wrong? Is there a problem in Yaoming? "
"No!" Division Chief Jiao said solemnly. "Take your special investigation group and head to Xiangjiang immediately to solve an important case!"
"What?" Zhao Yu was shocked. "Is it the Kuman Thong case?"
"What?" Division Chief Jiao was stunned and sighed. "You're well-informed. How did you know?"
"You mean … My … Our whole team has to go there?" Zhao Yu asked.
"Yes! This is what the higher-ups want, "Division Chief Jiao said." This case is no small matter, and you and your team are the best candidates! "
