At 7 o 'clock in the evening, in a luxurious private room in Tianhai Hot Pot City, Yaoming City …
The private room was located on the rooftop of the building. It was an open-air private room. Looking out of the railing, one could see the distant sea horizon and feel the refreshing sea breeze.
However, because everyone was eating happily, the sound of the waves could not be heard.
Gulp …
Gulp …
Police Officer Wang Can raised his head and drank the beer in his glass. He then said to Zhao Yu, "Sifu, don't laugh at me. Ever since you went to Sichuan, the 'Memoir of a Murderer' has been in a deadlock. There has been no progress!
"I'm really … too ashamed to face you … I've lost face for you, Master …"
Ran Tao said, "It's not your fault. After all, the murder memoirs are different from ordinary cases. If they were easy to solve, our boss would have solved them the last time he came here. "
"Master," Officer Wang said to Zhao Yu with a bitter look on his face, "I checked all the psychologists I could find, including those who had been to the coastal area, but none of these people matched up at all!
Wang Can then said, "Also, we checked all the people in the prison who had contact with Nong Zhifa. There were more than 1,500 of them, and no one was missing!
"Among these people, there's no one who knows anything about psychology …"
"Boss …" Cui Lizhu pulled Zhao Yu and whispered, "Could it be that there's something wrong with your thinking? A psychologist hypnotized Nong Zhifa and made him confess to all the crimes? That's a bit too much of a plot! "
"Although it is theoretically possible, but … isn't it too difficult?"
"Mm …" Zhao Yu didn't object. He nodded slightly and said, "It seems that we have to reanalyze this case. Perhaps, there were some mistakes in our previous thinking …"
Wu Xiumin couldn't help but remind him, "Have you forgotten why we had that kind of suspicion? Nong Zhifa's character was inconsistent, and some of the clues were inconsistent. Even the confession of the mental patient, Liu Cheng, indicated that it was not Nong Zhifa himself!
"I think, even if Nong Zhifa is the murderer of Memoir of Murder, then … there must be other suspects in this case!"
"Wu is right." Zhao Yu took a sip of wine and said, "Actually, on the way back to Yaoming, I kept thinking … Is there any similarity between the Memoirs of a Murderer and the Ghost King Case?
"Could it be … another gang crime?
"Or …" Zhao Yu smacked his lips and said, "Maybe the two serial killers encountered each other and created some kind of spark, which made Nong Zhifa mistakenly think that the other killer's crimes were all committed by himself?
"Is he delirious or schizophrenic? Is he actually not misled or hypnotized by someone?"
"Hmm … That does make sense. I also think that there should be another person besides Nong Zhifa!"
"That's even more strange." Ran Tao scratched his head out of habit. "Who is the other person you're talking about? He must be the real murderer in Memoirs of a Murderer? "
"Master," Officer Wang said, although his face was red, he was not drunk. "To tell you the truth, I've been holding my breath these days!
"I haven't been idle even for a moment. Here … According to the memoir of a murderer, Nong Zhifa killed a woman in the Xulong County area in May 2000 and buried her body near an electric pole.
"You know what? I hired the workers who built the base station to dig up all the telephone poles there, but they only found a dog's body … "Cui Lizhu frowned and said," Don't be so stupid.
"Don't …" Cui Lizhu frowned and said, "Don't use your brain. It's been 19 years since 2000. You have to dig up the electric poles that haven't been touched in 19 years!"
"I'm not that stupid, am I?" Officer Wang gulped down another glass of beer, then said bitterly, "I feel like I've been fooled!"
"Didn't he enter the instrument used to find the bones?" Zeng Ke asked. "Although it's not that precise, at least it can help, right?"
"It doesn't work. That machine rings everywhere," Officer Wang said. "It's only suitable for finding corpses in the wilderness, but in places with underground cables, it's not easy."
"Oh …" Everyone shook their heads and sighed.
"We also investigated all the missing people before and after May 2000," Officer Wang said. "Either the identity, the age, the time, or the way of death are all wrong. In short, none of them matches the missing person's identity …" Officer Wang added.
"I even suspect that there is no such case at all, and that Nong Zhifa made it up!"
"Really?" Cui Lizhu pouted. "If it's a lie, why did all the previous cases match up perfectly?"
Officer Wang shook his head and said, "There were a total of 13 cases, but only five were matched. We can't be 100% sure that the remaining eight cases must have happened.
What if … What if Nong Zhifa was insane and made it up? What if, in fact, he only committed five cases? "
"But," Wu Xiumin said, "what about Liu Cheng's confession?"
"Liu Cheng is a lunatic, a mental patient …" Officer Wang complained in distress. "We have shown him more than 100 suspects. If the real murderer is among them, he should be able to point it out, right?
Also, recently, he began to lose his temper again. No matter how we coaxed him, he refused to cooperate with us. Even the psychologists couldn't do anything about it … "
"Um …" At this time, Zhao Yu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. He looked at Officer Wang with a complicated expression and asked, "Tell me again. In May 2000, after Nong Zhifa killed someone, where did he bury the body?"
"What?" Officer Wang was stunned and quickly replied, "Electric … Electric pole? What's wrong? "
"Um …" Zhao Yu frowned and seemed to think of something important.
Cui Lizhu knew Zhao Yu's ability, so she quickly asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"
"Electric pole …" Zhao Yu muttered. "Which idiot would bury the body under an electric pole after killing someone?"
"Huh?" Cui Lizhu was quick to respond. "You mean … The electric pole is not a good place to bury the body?"
"Nonsense!" Zhao Yu said. "You haven't buried electric poles before. When the electric pole is buried, the ground must be very solid. Only a fool would dig that kind of hard ground to bury the body!
The point is, unless his family operated a road roller, how could he flatten the ground after burying the body? Even if he could flatten the ground, it would collapse when it rained. So, there must be something wrong with it! "
"Besides, there are cables or pipelines under the electric pole. The probability of breaking it open for maintenance is very high. So, why would the murderer bury the body in such a place?"
"Yes!" Officer Wang said, clapping his hands. "I thought of this a long time ago. If the body was really buried in such a place, it should have been found long ago!
But, I checked all the records, but I didn't find any news of a body being dug up near the electric pole.
I always feel that we may have been fooled by Nong Zhifa … "
"No!" Zhao Yu suddenly raised his arm and said to everyone, "We may not have been fooled by Nong Zhifa, but by the person who controlled Nong Zhifa!
"I think …" Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "I think I understand the mystery behind it!"
