In order to avoid suspicion, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying went back to work in the afternoon. After work, the two of them did not see each other again.
When Zhao Yu walked into the police station building, he felt very different from before. He felt uncomfortable all over.
"Is there a mole in the police force?
What should I do?
Who is this mole?
Is it one, two, or a gang?
Oh my god, even when I was in a gang, it wasn't this complicated, was it? "
"Tsk tsk...
If I had a bunch of lie detectors, how great would that be?
Try them one by one, I don't believe I can't find this bastard! "
For the Key Case Investigation Unit, Qu Ping's case was already closed. Now they just had to wait for the court to declare Hou Meng guilty, then the case could be closed.
Thus, the entire team's focus was on the Mianling Case.
After Mao Wei assigned tasks, Zhao Yu also participated in the investigation. He went to Niu Weiguang's widow's house with Dafei and the others.
Niu Weiguang's wife, Zhang Ying, was already in her fifties. Ever since Niu Weiguang disappeared with the kidnapped children, she had not remarried.
Because Niu Weiguang was suspected of being involved in the kidnapping, Zhang Ying had suffered a lot and suffered a lot of slander. In the third year of the kidnapping, she was forced to leave Mianling Town with her children.
Even though Niu Weiguang's body had been found, she still could not get rid of the suspicion of being an accomplice.
Even though the case had happened so many years ago, Zhang Ying still believed that Niu Weiguang was innocent. He could not have been a kidnapper!
At that time, Niu Weiguang's child was only two years old. Now he was a twenty-eight-year-old boy. When Zhao Yu and the others came to his house to investigate, they experienced a double whammy of ice and fire.
On one hand, Zhang Ying was extremely cooperative with the investigators. She tried her best to prove to the investigators that Niu Weiguang was a kind and family-oriented person. He would never have done such a heinous thing!
Back then, Niu Weiguang drove a taxi, and Zhang Ying started a small textile factory. Their lives were prosperous, and Niu Weiguang had no reason to do such a thing!
Zhang Ying begged the detectives to find out the truth and prove her family's innocence!
But, on the other hand, Niu Weiguang's son hated the police detectives to the core. He kept saying that for so many years, his family had been through so much hardship, and had been humiliated. They could not even walk with their heads held high, and it was all because of the police's incompetence!
If they had been able to solve the case back then, his father would have been cleared of all wrongdoings, and he and his mother would not have lived such a miserable life!
In the end, her son became more and more agitated, and he even wanted to fight with the investigators. Zhang Ying couldn't stop him, and in the end, a small conflict broke out.
After the conflict subsided, Zhang Ying sent the investigators downstairs and apologized, asking them not to hold it against her son. She also asked the police officers to bring Niu Weiguang's body back as soon as possible so that he could rest in peace.
However, Dafei and the others came with a mission. They still had some details to ask Zhang Ying, so they asked her in detail at the entrance of the corridor. In the end, when Zhang Ying recalled the happy life back then, and the pain of losing her husband, she could not hold it in anymore and burst into tears, which attracted a lot of attention from the neighbors.
Seeing Dafei and the others trying their best to persuade him, as well as Zhang Ying crying, Zhao Yu returned to the police car.
He reclined the seat back a little, put his arms behind his head, and closed his eyes to think.
In the past few days, he had encountered too many adventures, and even his identity had changed a few times.
First, Su Yang wanted him to be a special investigator. Then, Captain Jin gave him a book and asked him to be a special investigator from the Central Bureau of Criminal Investigation to solve super cold cases. Then, Miao Ying suddenly appeared and asked him to help investigate the real cause of Qu Ping's death!
Sigh!
Zhao Yu sighed and thought to himself, "What's going on?
Why did it become so troublesome for no reason?
What … should I do? How should I do it? "
Zhao Yu slowly thought through all these things again, and began to analyze them one by one to find a direction for himself.
First, the matter of being a special investigator could only start after Su Yang contacted him! Without Su Yang's orders, he did not need to care. So, this matter could be put aside for now.
Secondly, the super cold cases that Captain Jin wanted him to investigate could not be completed in such a short time.
Last night, he had skimmed through Jin's yellow notebook. The five cases recorded in it were not only old, but also very complicated. Any one of them was a hundred times more serious than the Mianling Kidnapping Case! Like the Huayun Mountain Massacre Case and the Jinding City Devil Case, they were all murder cases that were extremely cruel and psychologically twisted.
To investigate such a major case, he felt that he was still far from being able to do it! Although he had the help of the Miracle System, he still had to wait until he had a certain amount of prestige and strength, enough experience, and enough time before he could put it into action. He definitely couldn't be impatient.
After all, Jin had spent his entire life and time and still could not solve it, so why should he rush? So, he could put this matter aside for now.
Lastly, the matter of him and Miao Ying was completely different from the previous two! At the very least, the previous two matters were not dangerous. At most, he would just mess it up, but he would not lose his life!
To be honest, Zhao Yu had thought that Qu Ping's death might have a hidden agenda, but he never would have thought that this hidden agenda would be fatal!
Hence, this was the root of Zhao Yu's troubles.
Miao Ying's sudden arrival seemed to have changed his attitude in the police force!
Up until now, Miao Ying had not told Zhao Yu what case Qu Ping had been investigating. Why was this case so dangerous that even Qu Ping herself had fallen into it?
Miao Ying only said that the higher-ups only wanted her to investigate the truth behind Qu Ping's death, but did not tell her what kind of case it was.
This matter was very strange and sudden, making Zhao Yu feel that it was unfathomable and unsure.
Actually, regarding this matter, Zhao Yu had not lied to Miao Ying! He had only wanted to show off in front of Miao Ying, to make Miao Ying look at him in a different light, and use this to get closer to the beauty! But he never would have thought that he would end up in this situation!
Although Zhao Yu said that he wanted to avoid it, in his heart, he was not against this special mission.
Firstly, he had sworn in front of Qu Ping's coffin that he would find the real culprit. Now that it was proven that the real culprit was someone else, he naturally would not shirk his responsibility! Even without Miao Ying, he would still continue the investigation!
Secondly, Zhao Yu was completely doing this because of Miao Ying. Although the mission was dangerous, Zhao Yu felt that it was a great opportunity to get close to Miao Ying!
Zhao Yu was also a despicable person. Although there was still a fist mark from Miao Ying on his face, Zhao Yu was more and more interested in this violent and smart female police officer. He was already deeply attracted to her!
If he could work with Miao Ying, and secretly at that, wouldn't it be common for them to have some sparks?
As the saying goes, even if I die under a peony, I'll still be a romantic as a ghost!
This secret mission, I'll accept it!
After thinking about this series of problems, Zhao Yu could not help but put his thoughts back on the Mianling Case in front of him.
Miao Ying had said that the investigation of Qu Ping's death could only be carried out in secret, which meant that it could only be done after work. While at work, he still had to focus on the investigation of the kidnapping case.
Thus, the two tasks did not conflict.
It had been quite some time since the reinvestigation of the Mianling Case, but after such a long time, it was still difficult for them to make any progress, and the results were minimal. Even with the magical Miracle System, he did not find any particularly valuable clues.
After thinking about it, Zhao Yu felt that he had to start with Cheng Sanli.
There were two reasons why he thought this way.
First, Cheng Sanli was the only person that he knew of who had anything to do with the Yinpan Mountain mine. Although he was unlikely to be the culprit of the kidnapping case, it was inevitable that he had interacted with the culprit!
Yinpan Mountain was far from Mianling. If the culprit chose to bury the body there, there might be a reason. If he investigated Cheng Sanli's relationships, perhaps he could find something?
Second, although Miao Ying was very sure that Qu Ping's death had nothing to do with the Mianling Case, Zhao Yu did not dare to guarantee this.
This was because when he and Qu Ping found out about Cheng Sanli, Qu Ping was killed. He had a nagging feeling that these two matters might be related in some way.
What if the real culprit of the Mianling Case had already become a powerful person who could do whatever he wanted? When she found out that Qu Ping was about to find out the truth, she made Hou Meng her scapegoat?
Phew …
Zhao Yu took a deep breath.
