At night, the lights were lit.
Jinjiang Road, the scene of Qu Ping's murder.
Looking at the cars passing by, Miao Ying asked Zhao Yu, "Zhao Yu, are you so sure that Qu Ping wasn't killed by Hou Meng?"
"I'm sure!" Zhao Yu took out his notebook and took notes as he answered Miao Ying's question, "Not only am I sure, but I also know that Hou Meng was framed, and he didn't even know! He didn't just drink or take drugs, he was probably knocked unconscious by someone, and was even carried to the crime scene in a car! "
"You're saying it like you saw it!" Miao Ying said doubtfully, then nodded, "But I agree with you! Hou Meng probably didn't even know the real culprit, he was just an unlucky scapegoat! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yu thought, "I'm so sure because of the lie detector, but how did you make such a correct deduction?"
"Look, Hou Meng is still alive, that's the best proof!" Miao Ying seemed to know Zhao Yu's doubts and immediately answered, "Qu Ping's murderer is very powerful! If Hou Meng really knew something, they definitely wouldn't have left him alive! "
"Oh... that makes sense!" Zhao Yu understood, "Which means we won't be able to get any more clues from Hou Meng!"
"Right!" Miao Ying said, "Let's think about it! If we were to use the same method to kill Qu Ping, with our abilities, could we do it so cleanly? "
Miao Ying's hypothesis immediately piqued Zhao Yu's interest. He thought hard and said, "We could do it, but... it's too difficult!"
"That's right!" Miao Ying said. "The most difficult thing was that Qu Ping was investigating a case at the police station that night. When she would return home, when she would pass by this road, and when Hou Meng would appear and when he would kill. These timing are not easily controlled!"
"According to Team B, Qu Ping announced that she was going home at the last minute, and did not plan anything beforehand!" Zhao Yu guessed, "Could it be that the real culprit was secretly observing Qu Ping, waiting for an opportunity? Oh... no wonder you said there's a traitor in the police force! "
"The police station has anti-surveillance equipment," Miao Ying said, nodding. "Only an insider can capture Qu Ping's movements at any time!"
"Then …" Zhao Yu's eyes lit up. "I'll go check those investigators who left with Qu Ping that night. These people are the most suspicious. Whoever urged Qu Ping to get off work is the mole!"
"It's not easy to investigate, and we can't investigate!" Miao Ying shook her head. "If we investigate, we'll be exposed! What we need to be careful of now is not to alert the enemy! Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable! Besides, it doesn't necessarily have to be the people from Team B. The guards on duty, the monitors in the surveillance room, and the higher-ups with high authority are all possible! "
"A leader with authority?" Zhao Yu clapped his hands. He had thought of this possibility before. Only someone with high authority in the police station could do it so discreetly. "I think we should investigate Liu Changhu and Mao Wei! Out of these two, one had evil intentions, and the other was sneaky. Perhaps there really was something wrong with them! Mao Wei's leg hasn't even healed, and he came back to work. This guy might have some unspeakable secret! "
"This is all your subjective speculation." Miao Ying shook her head helplessly. "I'm warning you, don't bring your personal emotions into this. You're a professional police detective! Before we have concrete evidence, let's investigate properly! "
"Okay … okay …" Zhao Yu pointed at the solar street lights. "This part of the road is still undergoing rainwater harvesting. Even though the electricity has been cut off, the solar street lights are not affected. So people like Hou Meng probably wouldn't know that the surveillance cameras here were actually turned off! Only an expert who planned a meticulous murder would know! "
"You're saying that Hou Meng was brought here by the murderer in a car?" Miao Ying frowned. "Do you have any proof?"
"No, but I'm sure!" Zhao Yu said seriously. "I can read minds. I dug it out from deep within Hou Meng's heart!"
"Tch!" Miao Ying glared at him. "Can you be more serious?"
"If he didn't use a car, would he have been carried?" Zhao Yu shrugged. "Look, they had to get news that Qu Ping had left the police station before they could make a move on Hou Meng, right? The bar is quite far from Jinjiang Road. If he didn't take a car, what else could he do? "
Miao Ying nodded silently and looked around. She guessed, "If we can find this car with Hou Meng in it, maybe we can make a breakthrough!"
"I looked at the map," Zhao Yu said quickly. Jinjiang Road has a six-kilometer stretch of road under construction. All of the intersections are paralyzed. The car could have come from any direction. It won't be easy to find this car! "
"Even if it's not easy, we still have to find it!" Miao Ying said seriously. "Plus, we have to expand our search range. See how many cars came from the bar to Jinjiang Road during the same time period!"
"Huh?!" Speaking of cars, Zhao Yu suddenly realized a problem. He quickly said to Miao Ying, "That's not right. Captain Miao, if we were to kill Qu Ping, it seems like … there's a big problem that needs to be solved. "
"Huh? What problem? "Miao Ying was confused.
"Look … there are cars one after another on the road …" Zhao Yu pondered. "Although the crime happened in the middle of the night, it's still a murder! What if a car whizzed past while the murder was going on? "
"Right?" Miao Ying's eyes lit up. She said softly, "Why didn't I think of that?"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu suddenly realized and said, "Roadblocks! Definitely! That's what they say in the movies! "
"You're saying …" Miao Ying also understood. "The murderers set up roadblocks at the two intersections to ensure that no cars passed by the murder scene! But … "
"What but?" Zhao Yu hugged his shoulders as if he was shivering. "You're right! Qu Ping's death was a meticulously planned project! These murderers were so professional! I'm guessing that there were at least five people, including the masterminds! Holy sh * t, what did Team Leader Qu Ping do? "
Seeing that Miao Ying was silent, Zhao Yu asked anxiously, "Captain Miao, you're still not willing to reveal your trump card? What kind of case was Team Leader Qu Ping investigating? If we knew what she was investigating, at least we would be able to find a direction, right? "
"Zhao Yu, I'm really not lying to you!" Miao Ying said. "The higher-ups seemed to have something they couldn't say. I've interrogated them and told them what you're saying now, but they refused to say anything!"
"What is this?!" Zhao Yu was a little annoyed. "If you want to fish, you need a fishing rod, bait, and fishing line, right? What about us? Are you good at fishing with your bare hands? "
"I suspect …" Miao Ying hesitated and said, "Team Leader Qu Ping might not have been investigating a case, but was murdered! Either she knew some big secret, or she had something that could threaten a lot of high-level people! In short, it's not that simple! "
"Ha!" Zhao Yu laughed. "I thought it was' that's not a problem! '"
Hearing Zhao Yu's cold joke, Miao Ying couldn't help but smile. At this moment, a cool breeze suddenly blew away her mushroom like hair, revealing her almost perfect face.
Zhao Yu couldn't help but be dumbfounded. He then said sadly, "Captain Miao, I have suffered because of you! Did you notice? Just like those TV dramas, even if we catch the real murderer, we might not be able to find out the truth behind it! In the end, he might not be able to avoid a fatal disaster! "
"Alright, I'm not joking!" Miao Ying said seriously, "It's not too late to back out now! Since you're so afraid of death, I won't force you! "
"Hehe …" Zhao Yu laughed and said, "Captain Miao, as long as you know that I'm using my life to chase after you! How about our one-night stand … mm … "Seeing Miao Ying raise her fist, Zhao Yu quickly changed his words." Don't forget about our date! Mm … at least reward me with a kiss!? Eh? Hey hey hey … don't … "
