At ten o 'clock in the evening, the office of the Special Investigation Group was already busy.
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke reported to Zhao Yu, "On the list of suspects, there are still seven people who can't be contacted. We've already sent people to look for them …"
"Team Leader," Wu Xiumin reported, "This Mi Rou is different from what we imagined. According to her friends, Mi Rou has a bad temper, is treacherous and greedy, and has a very bad reputation. In the past, she often had conflicts with customers, and it's almost impossible to count …"
"Also, Mi Rou's WeChat Moments, contact list, and chat list have all been checked," Zeng Ke added. "We found a few suspicious people, but we still need some time to follow up and analyze …"
"Boss, I just investigated a few of Mi Rou's high school classmates," Cui Lizhu said. "They all said that because of her outstanding appearance and figure, Mi Rou had many suitors in high school, including people from other classes and outside of school …"
"It's said that at that time, her reputation wasn't very good! There were a lot of bad rumors … "
"But, no one really knows who she was in love with. We need further confirmation …"
Phew …
Listening to his team members' reports, Zhao Yu looked at his watch. There wasn't much time left until 12 o 'clock.
However, they still hadn't found any clues. Zhao Yu was more and more worried that the fourth murder case of the Ghost King Case might have reached an unavoidable level.
After all, there were too many suspects. On the one hand, they had to find a suspect who was in love with Mi Rou, or had a deep relationship with her. On the other hand, they had to find a victim who met the criteria of the fourth Ghost King Case and prevent him from being caught by the murderer in time.
However, due to Mi Rou's special profession and character, they couldn't find the former, but the latter was too much!
This is really …
Depressing …
Zhao Yu looked at the whiteboard, and for the first time, he felt powerless.
Ever since the Ghost King Case had appeared, it had always been in a strange state. Originally, the criminal had left a lot of clues, but none of them could help Zhao Yu find the murderer!
Also, this serial murder case involved many people. Even though the entire Andu Police Station had taken action, it still made the case more and more difficult.
First, it was Tao Yulan from 66 years ago, then the Ghost King Record of unknown origin. Then, there were the three victims who were disguised by the murderer, as well as the many people who were implicated by the victims …
Now, Zhao Yu had finally found a suspected motive for the murder, which was Mi Rou. But, unexpectedly, he still couldn't find any more information in such a short period of time.
What was the truth of this case?
Was he really just someone who liked Mi Rou and wanted to take revenge for her?
Or … the murderer was someone who had nothing to do with Mi Rou. The reason why he wanted to kill these people who caused Mi Rou to jump off the building was to complete the Ghost King Case that Tao Yulan had failed to complete!?
So, he started killing from the sixth ghost in the 《Ghost King Record》, all for the sake of carrying on the crime committed by Tao Yulan that year?
Tsk tsk … tsk tsk …
The more Zhao Yu thought about it, the more confused he became. It was as if the truth was right in front of him, but he just couldn't grasp it!
Just … just where is it lacking?
At this time, Zeng Ke raised the phone and said to Zhao Yu, "Team Leader, we found four more people. Now, there are only three left!"
"Oh." Zhao Yu stopped his train of thought and asked, "Tell me, who are these three people?"
"The first one is a regular customer of Chuanmei Bath Center. His name is Ma Lei, but after some investigation, we couldn't find this person. He's probably using a fake name!
"We've already sent people to verify the surveillance of Chuanmei Bath Center and retrieve this person's image.
"It's said that Mi Rou once quarreled with this person because of the price, but it wasn't too serious …
"The second one is Li Chao, a professional gambler. A few days ago, he went into hiding because he owed a debt! This person had also had conflicts with Mi Rou, and it was not just once. Basically, it was because of some service issues …
Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Còm
"The third one is Wang Zhangkun, a professional pimp," Zeng Ke continued. "Not only the bathing center where Mi Rou works, but his business is also quite extensive …"
"Pimp …" Zhao Yu pondered for a moment, then asked, "What is his situation?"
"I only know that Wang Zhangkun introduced a lot of business to Mi Rou," Zeng Ke replied. "But, no one knows what his relationship with Mi Rou is like. I've never seen the two of them having any conflicts!"
"Then … Why can't we find him?" Zhao Yu asked again.
"Because …" Zeng Ke glanced at the information and said, "There seems to be no reason. He just suddenly lost contact with us, starting last night …"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu and his team members looked at each other.
"The probability of him being a pimp is very high … And, isn't it a bit of a coincidence that he lost contact with us at the same time?"
"Also," Zhao Yu said. "The profession of a pimp is more in line with the characteristics of the town. He only eats women!"
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke replied in a hurry. "Captain Zhang Ling has already sent someone to look for him. Do you still need to ask him to hurry?"
Zhao Yu nodded slightly. "From the current situation, this person should be the most suspicious one. Although I don't know what kind of conflict he had with Mi Rou, he is likely to be the murderer's target!"
"I'm worried that, even if he is the person chosen by the murderer, it's too late for us to find him. After all, we've lost contact with him for a whole day!" Cui Lizhu guessed with her hands behind her back. "Do you think it's possible that Mi Rou and Shen Wenbin got to know each other because of this person?
"If he hadn't introduced Mi Rou to Shen Wenbin, then none of these things would have happened. So, the murderer believes that he is also the one who hurt Mi Rou?"
"I …" Zeng Ke hurriedly picked up his phone. "I'll check this pimp again …"
…
An hour later, Zeng Ke finally received a reply from the investigation team.
"Team Leader," he hurriedly reported to Zhao Yu. "Cui guessed it right! Wang Zhangkun does know a lot of big shots. He often introduces girls to those rich second generations and young masters, and then takes a cut from both sides. "
"Oh yeah!" Cui clenched his fist. "So, the fourth victim of the Ghost King Case is him? But … He has lost contact with us. How … How can we find him? "
"Um …" Zeng Ke hurriedly pulled out the information and introduced it to everyone. "Wang Zhangkun has been in various entertainment venues at night. According to the latest information, someone saw him at the Las Vegas club at around 12 o 'clock last night. After that, he disappeared!"
"We've checked his mobile phone, but there's no signal. His WeChat account is also unresponsive …" Zeng Ke said. "Captain Zhang Ling just told me that Wang Zhangkun has been doing well in the past few years. He just bought a house in the third ring road. So, it's impossible for him to suddenly run away!"
"Okay!" Zhao Yu said to Zeng Ke. "Tell Zhang Ling to send a police force to conduct a full search on this pimp. Search his residence, and check all the surveillance cameras inside and outside the Las Vegas club. See if you can find any clues about his disappearance!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Yu looked at his watch and saw that it was getting closer and closer to midnight.
"Well, there's no time. We can only take a gamble!" After that, Zhao Yu picked up his coat and said to his team members, "You guys look after the house. I'll go and have a look …"
