The next morning, the sun shone brightly.
At around ten o 'clock, Zhao Yu and Ding Lan drove towards the Jinjiang branch of the Bank of Seoul.
Last night, even though Zhao Yu went to the hospital and talked to Quan Youdong's driver for a long time, he felt that he had gained little.
What the driver knew was roughly the same as what Xu Meina had said. Quan Youdong's lifestyle was problematic. He never cared about other people's feelings. He did things his own way and was selfish. The bad things he had done were too numerous to list.
Even though Zhao Yu had been in the underworld before he had come to this world, he had relied on his fists to make a living.
However, he felt that he was definitely not the same type of person as Kwon Youdong. In any case, he still had some spirit of brotherhood and would not bully the weak for no reason.
On the other hand, Quan Youdong was too ruthless and left no room for retreat. He had offended too many people and it was impossible to investigate.
Therefore, Zhao Yu didn't force himself to stay up last night. He had a simple supper with Ding Lan, then went back to the hotel to sleep.
After a good night's sleep, he felt that his energy had recovered and he was much more relaxed.
Since Quan Youdong was unable to investigate, he could only settle for the next best thing. He shifted his target to the first victim and prepared to go to Li Yiyan's workplace to talk to her colleagues.
While the car was still on its way, Zhao Yu was checking the latest news that Li Zhenzhu had sent him.
After the National Intelligence Department joined in the investigation, the case progressed very quickly. It was only ten in the morning, and they had already investigated all the suspects.
But unexpectedly, these suspects all had alibis. None of them ended up in the police's line of sight.
These people were either on a business trip or resting at home. Those who were resting at home were almost all verified by surveillance equipment and witnesses.
Moreover, the nature of these people's jobs did not match the conditions listed by the police.
Li Zhenzhu told Zhao Yu that they would investigate the suspects in detail to see if any of them were lying.
In addition, Li Zhenzhu told Zhao Yu another thing. Due to Captain Ju's sensitive issue, the higher-ups had decided to suspend all work of the search team.
Whether it was the Chamber of Commerce incident or the Black Pupil case, both were handed over to the National Intelligence Division and the Seoul Police Department.
Not only did they suspect that Captain Xu and Xu Meina had reached some kind of agreement, but they also suspected that there was someone in the general search team who was on Captain Xu's side.
Therefore, these two cases could not be handed over to them to handle no matter what.
Zhao Yu then understood why Captain Ju's attitude towards him had changed last night. It turned out that he knew that he was going to be suspended.
However, Li Zhenzhu told Zhao Yu that, because there was no concrete evidence, Captain Ju's case might be dealt with lightly in the end.
"The Big Iron Ball …" At this moment, Ding Lan was reading the information and joking with Zhao Yu. "If you hadn't stopped the Big Iron Ball's second attack in time, I'm afraid that An Xianxiu would have been dead."
"Maybe!" Zhao Yu answered perfunctorily, but he was thinking about something else.
"An Xianxiu is a real villain," Ding Lan said playfully, "Did you do a good thing or a bad thing?"
"If the iron ball hits again," Zhao Yu said, "An Xianxiu won't be the only one dead! A few more hits and the entire restaurant would collapse!
"Tell me, is what I did good or bad?"
"Brother-in-law, you're awesome." Ding Lan pouted and said, "How did you get to the crane in such a short time? Are you going to jump off the building?
"Why …" Ding Lan frowned and said, "Every time you're involved, something unusual always happens.
"For example, in the underground secret room, you knocked out so many people with electric cables, but you didn't get hurt. Is it true?" Ding Lan looked at Zhao Yu seriously and said, "What you said last time was true. What system? What time travel? "
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded without hesitation. "You finally believe me, right? In my previous life, I was a hooligan who went to collect loan sharks with a stick every day. After time travel, I became a criminal police officer. How do you explain this? "
"Okay." Ding Lan held the phone and said, "Let's talk about the case!"
Tsk …
Zhao Yu was proud of himself. If he had tried to explain just now, it would only have made Ding Lan more suspicious, so it was better to tell the truth.
If he told the truth, no one would believe him.
"Ding Lan," Zhao Yu pointed at the information on the phone and said, "Don't you think these information are a bit strange?"
"Yes, I was just about to tell you!" Ding Lan said. "There are so many suspects, so it's impossible for all of them to have alibis, right? Isn't this a bit deliberate?
"It reminds me of the Murder on the Orient Express! Look … "
Then, Ding Lan raised her arms to show Zhao Yu the goosebumps on her arms.
"Yes, I think so too," Zhao Yu said. "It was raining that night, and the crime happened late at night. Normally, it would be difficult to provide an alibi.
But, all of these people can provide alibis, which makes me feel that something is wrong. "
"Um … What do you mean by the Orient Express?"
"No way! You are a great detective. Haven't you seen it? Even if you haven't, you should have seen the movie, right? "Ding Lan explained." Everyone is the murderer. In the end, even the great detective Polo couldn't do anything about it! "
"Polo?" Zhao Yu was puzzled. "A detective's name is so young …"
Ding Lan suspected that Zhao Yu was pretending, so she looked at him with disdain. After five seconds, she said, "Do you think the families of the seven victims who were burned to death were all involved?
This case is really similar to the Orient Express. The families of the victims all hated Liu Bingcheng to the core!
"Have you seen the Korean movie My Kind of Gold?" Ding Lan asked. "It's also a story of collective revenge!"
"You've seen a lot of movies." Zhao Yu pouted. "But, after all, movies are fictitious! In reality, would anyone risk going to jail, or even being sentenced to death, just to take revenge?
"And, most importantly …" Zhao Yu said, "Even if the victims' families really wanted to take revenge, where did the Kurome come from?
"How do you explain that the Kurome and the Yokohama Kurome Case came from the same stone? How do you explain that the ratio of anesthetics and muscle relaxants, as well as the method of removing the eyeballs, are all the same as the Yokohama Kurome Case? "
"Hey? Hey … "After Zhao Yu asked this question, Ding Lan's eyes lit up. She seemed to have thought of something, so she said hurriedly," Brother-in-law, I … I seem to have an idea!
"Do you think it's possible that these people were instigated by someone? And the person who instigated them is … Is it … Is it … Iwata Kiki? "
"What the …" Zhao Yu took a deep breath, and goosebumps appeared on his arms.
"If this is the case," Ding Lan said excitedly, "can you immediately inform Li Zhenzhu to arrest the suspect and take him back to the police station for interrogation?"
"Wait …" Zhao Yu thought quickly and said, "I think it's too troublesome to persuade so many family members one by one.
Is there a more direct and effective way? Have the families of the victims ever gathered together? "
"Um …" Ding Lan thought for a while and answered, "Maybe. Memorial activities for the deceased, funerals … Or …
"Hey?" Ding Lan's eyes lit up, and she said, "Could it be … Mutual-Aid Association?"
"Mutual-Aid Association?" Zhao Yu had never heard of it.
"It's … After experiencing trauma, everyone sits together to share their feelings, measures, and emotions, so as to achieve the purpose of calming the trauma and psychological counseling," Ding Lan explained.
"Oh …" Zhao Yu's eyes widened. "I've seen it in movies!"
"Such a mutual-aid association is usually organized and hosted by someone." Ding Lan's voice began to tremble. "Could it be … Iwata Kiki … Iwata Kiki is their host?"
