At one o 'clock in the afternoon, outside the autopsy room at the Andu Police Station.
"Hello, I've heard a lot about you, Detective Zhao …" A middle-aged man in a high-ranking police uniform was holding Zhao Yu's hand and complimenting him. "It's an honor to meet you today!"
The man was the bureau chief of the Andu Police Station, Zhao Shengjun.
Zhao Yu was already familiar with these official social interactions, so he immediately exchanged a few pleasantries with Bureau Chief Zhao before getting down to business.
"Detective Zhao, I've already sent someone to confirm," Bureau Chief Zhao said. "The deceased that appeared in the ghost town is indeed the executive chairman of Chuanxing Group, Shen Wenbin.
"To tell you the truth, I've dealt with Shen Wenbin's father, Shen Hao. I'm quite familiar with him, so I've seen Shen Wenbin a few times …"
"Sigh! It's really unfortunate … "After sighing, Bureau Chief Zhao took Zhao Yu to the side and told him everything he knew." Chuanxing Group is the representative enterprise of the entire Sichuan Province. It was once in the top 50 in the country, so it's very powerful. "
"The chairman, Shen Hao, was very ambitious. Because we were about the same age, we shared the same interests, and we had business dealings, so our relationship was quite good."
"Unfortunately, Shen Hao suddenly fell seriously ill three years ago and needed to rest at home. He could no longer manage the company, so he handed the company over to his son, Shen Wenbin."
"Wenbin, this child, is actually quite good at business. He's done quite a few big projects over the past few years, so the company hasn't gone downhill."
"But …" Bureau Chief Zhao lowered his voice and said, "This child's way of doing things is really unflattering."
"It's said that Shen Wenbin liked to play tricks, and would do anything to achieve his goals. In the past few years, in order to fight for projects, he had offended a lot of people!"
"I've also received complaints before, and I've sent people to investigate him. But, although those things were done in a sinister manner, they were either scapegoated, or not enough to be filed. So, in the end, it was left unsettled."
"Also …" Bureau Chief Zhao continued, "I heard that Shen Wenbin is also quite promiscuous in his private life. Although he already has a family, he has slept with countless women. There have been many rumors about him having an illegitimate child …"
"I'm thinking …" Bureau Chief Zhao weighed his options and said, "Is it possible that the cause of his death has something to do with his private life?
"Look, Madam Dou became an evil ghost because she was abandoned by a man. Then … after the murderer killed him, he dressed him up as Madam Dou. Isn't this a hint that his death has something to do with a woman?
"Perhaps the murderer is one of the women who were harmed by Shen Wenbin? Or does it have anything to do with these women? "
"Mm …" Zhao Yu didn't know how to respond to Bureau Chief Zhao's speculation.
If one were to look at this case alone, this speculation was reasonable.
However, if it was related to the first case, it would be completely different.
In the first case, the victim was disguised as a Taoist priest, Guan Xian. Guan Xian had been killed by the king and turned into a malicious spirit. However, Niu Jinkui had never killed anyone before. Obviously, there was a difference between this and the second case.
But … Bureau Chief Zhao's words might not be wrong. After all, Niu Jinkui, the victim of the first case, had a messy private life and had affairs with many women!
Then, could it be that these two Ghost King murder cases were both caused by women?
"Mm …" Zhao Yu nodded and said, "It seems that we really have to focus on investigating these women who are related to the deceased!"
"Yes! That's what I mean too! " Bureau Chief Zhao nodded and said to Captain Zhang, "Mm, Zhang Ling, you have to assist Detective Zhao and solve the case well!
"The Ghost King case is unusual. If there are more deaths in the future, or if the media spreads the news, the consequences will be unimaginable!
So, you have to catch the murderer as soon as possible! "
"Yes!" Zhang Ling quickly promised, feeling even more pressured.
"Alright." Bureau Chief Zhao shook Zhao Yu's hand again and said, "If Detective Zhao needs anything else, please let us know. The Andu Police Station will cooperate fully!"
"Thank you very much!" Zhao Yu nodded. "Your words are the greatest support for me!"
Then, the two of them politely exchanged a few words, then Bureau Chief Zhao said goodbye to Zhao Yu and left.
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu naturally understood that, although Bureau Chief Zhao was very respectful and polite to him, in fact, he was also putting pressure on him.
Anyway, the main person in charge of this case was Detective Zhao. Zhao Yu represented the Criminal Division, and the Andu Police Station was only cooperating with his investigation. So, if this case got out of control, Zhao Yu would not be able to escape criticism.
The Andu Police Station would also have another reason to avoid responsibility.
People often said that it was easy to conquer a country, but difficult to defend it. Zhao Yu was now facing an indescribably awkward situation.
He was now well-known throughout the country. In his hands, no matter what kind of difficult cases or unsolved cases, he had solved all of them.
However, it was precisely because of this miraculous record that Zhao Yu felt pressured.
For example, the case in front of him. Although the case came very suddenly and the police had tried their best, if the Ghost King case continued like this, then the world would only think that it was Zhao Yu's incompetence! They would think that the legendary detective was just an undeserved reputation.
Therefore, after working on a case for so long, this was the first time that Zhao Yu had felt so much pressure.
Looking back, even when he was solving the incredible hanging coffin case, it had never been like this.
After all, the hanging coffin case was a one-off case, while the Ghost King case was a vicious serial murder case!
Zhao Yu was really curious. Who was the murderer who imitated Tao Yulan from 66 years ago?
Why did he kill people?
…
An hour later, in the temporary office of the Special Investigation Group.
Zhang Ling sent someone to bring delicious food to the special investigators, as well as many local specialties.
However, Zhao Yu was still not in the mood to eat. He was still looking at the whiteboard and seriously recording the latest clues.
"Detective Zhao …" Zhang Ling reported to Zhao Yu. "According to the information we have so far, Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin have no direct relationship, whether it is work, life, or social status.
"The only thing they have in common is women, but the women are of different social status," Zhang Ling said. "According to the information we have, Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin have no direct relationship.
"As for Shen Wenbin, there's no need to even mention her. From female models, air stewardesses to female celebrities, there are simply too many of them. I've even sent the police to help out!"
"Maybe …" Cui Lizhu guessed, "The murderer's girlfriend or family had been hurt, and the murderer hated men like Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin who played with women, so …"
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke suddenly interrupted Cui Lizhu and said, "I have a new discovery. Shen Wenbin just bought a huge amount of insurance before the New Year, and the beneficiary of the insurance is his wife!
"If anything happens to Shen Wenbin, his wife will receive an astronomical compensation of up to 200 million!
"Do you think … this could be the cause of Shen Wenbin's death?"
"Aiyo, there really is a problem!" "I heard that Shen Wenbin didn't cheat on his wife, but he did it right in front of her. He even dared to bring a woman home!
"Could it be …"
Zhao Yu pondered for a moment, then said to Wu Xiumin, "Sis Wu, please take care of this matter! Find Shen Wenbin's wife for questioning immediately! "
