At noon, Zhao Yu didn't have time to eat lunch, as he was still nervously investigating the suspect, Tu Qiang, in his office.
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke said worriedly, "You didn't sleep last night. Why don't you eat something and go to sleep?"
"Anyway, this suspect can't run away. Besides, didn't Wu and Cui Lizhu already go to the prison to question him?
"I think," Zeng Ke said confidently, "Wu will definitely be able to make this person tell the truth! If he really wrote the murder memoir, then he is the real murderer, then he will definitely confess! "
"Wrong!" Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "We can't be so sure about this. First of all, we can't be completely sure that Tu Qiang is the real murderer.
Second, even if he really is the murderer, as long as he refuses to admit it, we can't do anything about it! "
"I know that there is no evidence," Zeng Ke said, nodding. "Liu Cheng's confession has no legal effect, but … I think your trick is quite powerful!
"Didn't you ask Sis Wu to bring a team of tall and strong police officers to interrogate Tu Qiang in the most powerful way possible? Once he sees our formation, I think … he will collapse very soon, right? "
"That's what we want to see, but …" Zhao Yu said, "We still have to be prepared for failure. After all, Tu Qiang is a lawyer who often deals with criminal cases, so he knows the procedures and operations of our police system very well.
"Since he dared to use Nong Zhixiang to set up such a big trap, he must have been mentally prepared. Therefore, our move of knocking the mountain to scare the tiger might not necessarily work! "
"Oh …" Zeng Ke nodded. "No wonder you insisted on staying in the police station instead of going to the first scene to command! Do you … have any new ideas? "
"I'm thinking …" Zhao Yu opened Tu Qiang's information and said, "I think that if Tu Qiang is really the real murderer X that we are looking for, then if we want to kill him with one blow, we must find his weakness!
Now, what we need to solve is this weakness. Where is it? "
"You said before," Zeng Ke said. "You said that the real murderer X made up the eight cases because there might be evidence in them that could directly convict him.
"Then … should we investigate in this direction?"
"I thought so too," Zhao Yu said. "I did some research. Although NDA technology was invented in the 1980s, it wasn't until around 1998 that it became widespread in our country.
"The five cases that have been confirmed in the memoir of a homicide all happened before 1998. Therefore, I suspect that Murderer X is very confident that these five cases will not leave any conclusive evidence.
That's why it was recorded in the Memoir of a Murderer! "
"But …" Zeng Ke said, "After 1998, DNA technology became common. So, the real murderer was worried that the cases committed after that would leave behind fatal evidence, so he fabricated the other eight cases."
"But," Zhao Yu said, "although these eight cases were fabricated, it is highly possible that they were all based on his criminal facts.
So, these eight cases are very likely to have happened, but not as recorded in the Memoir of a Murderer! "
"You mean …" Zeng Ke nodded and said, "As long as we can dig out the truth of these eight cases, maybe we can find evidence that will make Murderer X confess?"
"Not just eight cases," Zhao Yu said. "Maybe, as long as we find one of them, we can convict him!
"For example …" Zhao Yu opened the Memoir of a Murderer and pointed to one of the cases, then said, "This movie theater case happened in 1999. This case happened in 1999. The murderer used Nong Zhifa's mouth to claim that he had attacked a woman outside a movie theater in Chaohai City, then dragged her into the wilderness, raped her, and killed her. Afterward, he buried her on the spot.
"But, Officer Wang didn't find any records of the woman's disappearance. Instead, he found a similar case in Haifeng City, 170 kilometers away. "
"A hotel waiter, Nie, disappeared on his way home from work late at night, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Nie's appearance, body shape, and the birthmark on his body are highly consistent with the movie theater case in the Memoir of a Murderer! "
"So," Zhao Yu said, "when we look at this case again, it seems that it has suddenly become clear!"
"I see," Zeng Ke said. "In fact, Murderer X committed this case, but he made up a movie theater case in his Memoir of a Murderer."
"The case he made up really has a prototype!"
Zeng Ke pointed to the information and said, "So, as long as we can find Nie's body, will we be able to find evidence of Murderer X from the body?
"Just like … just like the video murder case?"
"Unfortunately, the situation in Haifeng is different from the video murder case!" Zhao Yu said regretfully. "Since 1999, the urban area of Haifeng City has expanded more than 10 times. The wilderness has long since become a high-rise building!
Nie's body is nowhere to be found … "
"Then …" Zeng Ke looked disappointed. "We can only look at other cases?"
Zhao Yu took a deep breath, then said to Zeng Ke, "These are my initial thoughts. I can only look for it when I have no other choice. After all, it would take too much time!"
"Oh … Oh?" Zeng Ke suddenly looked up. "Leader, do you have a better idea?"
"I don't have an idea, but …" Zhao Yu said meaningfully, "Maybe I can find a breakthrough?"
"Breakthrough? What breakthrough? "
While Zeng Ke was wondering, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open by Officer Wang, who reported to Zhao Yu, "Boss, the task you gave me has been completed. Our director personally wrote an application to the prison to stop Tu Qiang's bail. He will definitely not be able to get out of prison in a short time!
If necessary, the prison will also cooperate with us to escort Tu Qiang to our police station for interrogation. "
"Very good." Zhao Yu nodded. "What about the second thing?"
"Mm!" Officer Wang nodded. "The car is ready. I'll take you there now!"
"Car?" Zeng Ke wondered. "Do you want to go out?"
"Let's go, Zeng Ke." Zhao Yu snapped his fingers. "Let's go eat something first, then go see someone!"
"Meet someone?" Zeng Ke rolled his eyes and suddenly understood what Zhao Yu meant. He then knew who he was going to meet.
However, before he could say anything, he suddenly heard Zhao Yu's mobile phone ring.
Beep beep beep …
Zhao Yu took a look and saw that it was another foreign number.
Zhao Yu didn't dare to refuse.
Unexpectedly, the voice of his father-in-law, Miao Kun, came from the other side of the phone. Moreover, it seemed that Miao Kun was very excited.
"Hey, Zhao, where are you?"
"Me? I'm in Yaoming now … "Zhao Yu looked at Officer Wang and Zeng Ke, then gestured to them that they should go first.
The two of them understood and immediately left the office.
"Zhao, did Li Jing call you and ask you to go to Korea?" Miao Kun asked, panting.
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded. "She said it was an urgent task!"
"Don't go!" Miao Kun shouted before Zhao Yu could finish, "Listen to me! Don't go! I've already applied to my superiors. Don't participate in this mission in Korea! "
