Andu No. 17 High School, Lanyang Academy crime scene.
"Detective Zhao," Captain Zhang Ling reported to Zhao Yu. "The forensic doctor has confirmed that the deceased is Tao Yan from Chuanmei Bath Center! This bath center happened to be the one that Niu Jinkui frequented … "
"Okay," Zhao Yu nodded. "This means that there is a connection between the deceased. Captain Zhang, later, you will change into casual clothes and accompany me to the bath center!"
"Mm …" Zhang Ling furrowed her eyebrows and said, "Listen to me, I just looked into it. The bathhouse has already closed down!"
"What?" Zhao Yu was stunned. "Closed? Why? "
Zhang Ling explained, "Tao Yan is not only a mommy, but she is also the owner of the bath center! Five days ago, her friends reported her missing! "
"Huh?" Zhao Yu was surprised. "Five days? This … "
"Because Tao Yan doesn't allow others to interfere in her business, the people in the bath center were worried that something might have gone wrong, so they closed the shop!"
"That's …" Zhao Yu creased his eyebrows and felt very surprised. "Could it be … that the murderer kidnapped Tao Yan five days ago and killed her last night?! This … "
"It's possible!" Zhang Ling echoed. "Ever since I found out that Niu Jinkui was related to the bath center, I sent people to investigate. Now, I found some of the employees there …"
"Detective Zhao, this bath center must be closely related to this case. Why don't we conduct a comprehensive search and bring all the people related to the bath center to the police station? Then, we can investigate them one by one and see if we can find any clues?"
"Okay, that's the only way!" Zhao Yu emphasized. "Arrange people to do it! Find out everything about Tao Yan as soon as possible! "
"Okay!" Zhang Ling immediately took out her phone and went to arrange the task.
"Boss," Ran Tao reported to Zhao Yu, walking quickly from the staircase. "We've checked everything. The murderer should have entered through the back door of Lanyang Academy.
The back door has been abandoned for many years, and there is only a rusty old lock on it, but the lock is gone!
Also, the back door is next to an abandoned courtyard, and there are no surveillance cameras there … "
"Is that so?" Zhao Yu creased his eyebrows. "I saw that courtyard just now. It was completely sealed, and there was no door! Don't tell me that the murderer climbed over the wall with the victim? "
"Yes … I didn't find the door …" Ran Tao scratched his head out of habit. "I've already sent a technical team to do a detailed investigation. Maybe the murderer used something like scaffolding?"
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu smacked his lips. He had the same thought again. Could there be more than one murderer? Was the Ghost King Case a crime committed by two people, or a group of people?
…
That night, Andu Police Station, Special Investigation Group Office.
The occurrence of the third Ghost King Case, coupled with the spread of the news on the Internet, had left the police officers in a terrible state.
For this reason, the Andu Police Station specially deployed more criminal investigators and technical personnel to participate in the case. The scale of the investigation was so large that it was rare in the local area.
At this moment, the members of the Special Investigation Group were working hard to carry out the investigation.
Zeng Ke was in charge of online tracking and was working with the Internet security department to trace the source of the publisher.
Ran Tao, on the other hand, was mainly in charge of the scene. Together with the technical team, they were collecting clues at the scene, as well as retrieving surveillance footage to capture the traces of the suspect.
Wu Xiumin's task was the most arduous. On one hand, she needed to cooperate with the executives of the police station to deal with the impact of the media and quell the negative impact caused by the Ghost King Case.
On the other hand, she was also in charge of the investigation work. She had to check everyone's interrogation videos to see if anyone was lying.
According to her previous responsibilities, Miao Ying used to be in charge of all the external work of the Special Investigation Group. However, now that Miao Ying was not around, Wu Xiumin had to take on two roles at the same time.
As for Zhang Peipei, she and her team had been busy day and night for the past few days. They were still carefully examining every corpse and examining a large amount of suspicious evidence …
Therefore, the only person who accompanied Zhao Yu in the office was Cui Lizhu.
However, Cui Lizhu was not idle either. In the past few days, Zhao Yu had given her a more important task, which was to collect all the information about the Tao Yulan Case.
Until now, Zhao Yu still insisted that the Ghost King Case should be related to the case from 66 years ago.
Whether it was the victim or the murderer, one of them might be related to Tao Yulan.
At that moment, Cui Lizhu was reporting the information that she had found out. "According to the genealogy investigation, the ancestors of the deceased Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin were not from Western Sichuan. So, the two of them should have nothing to do with the case that year!"
Cui Lizhu shook her head and sighed. "As for the question of Tao Yulan's descendants, this is simply an impossible task!
After searching for so long, I only found that, when Tao Yulan was arrested, although I found poison, makeup clothes, and props in his house, I didn't find the Ghost King Log! "
She then added, "So, I suspect that Tao Yulan passed the Ghost King Log to someone else, or hid it somewhere.
Maybe he wrote something provocative in the Ghost King Log, and in modern times, he was discovered by someone who had a mental problem? Then, he was encouraged by the book to continue Tao Yulan's will and continue to kill people! "
"Alright," Zhao Yu shook his head and sighed. "Let's not make up stories for ourselves. The more we speculate, the more our energy will be wasted!"
"This case … There must be a key point." Zhao Yu frowned. "Only by finding this key point can the truth of the case become clear!"
"Detective Zhao …" Just then, Captain Zhang Ling rushed in from outside and said, "Didn't I send someone to the ghost town to check the surveillance cameras today?
"Hey, you're right! This time, they really found something wrong! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yu asked. "What problem?"
Zhang Ling said. "The experts I sent all agreed that the murderer cut off the power in the surveillance room. It's not what we thought at all!
In fact, the real way he avoided the cameras was to directly cut off the power of the entire ghost town from the outside! "
"What?" Zhao Yu didn't quite understand.
"It's like this," Zhang Ling said. "After the murderer brought the people outside the ghost town, he went to the main switch of the external cable and did something there, causing the entire ghost town's power system to be paralyzed.
"Then, he drove the tricycle and drove the man in!"
"Paralyzed the power system? Did he do something? "Zhao Yu still didn't understand." How did he do it? Did he pull the switch? "
"No, of course not," Zhang Ling said. "It's a very complicated operation. The experts said that the murderer must have used some kind of tool. This tool could use the resonance of the relay to affect the power output, causing the power to be paralyzed for ten to twenty minutes!
So, after the murderer entered the ghost town, he didn't rush to kill people. Instead, he went to the surveillance room and cut off the power output of the surveillance cameras there. This way, the power was restored, but the surveillance cameras were also disabled!
"So …" Zhang Ling said hesitantly. "As long as there was one person, he could have done it!"
"Holy sh * t … So professional?" Hearing this, Zhao Yu's mouth almost reached his forehead. "This guy … What did he do?!"
