"Well, since you already know who I am …" In the manager's office, Zhao Yu stared at the cruise ship owner and said, "Then … You should realize how serious this matter is, right?"
"About this matter?" Zhu Yundi smiled faintly, then pointed to the small door inside and said, "Detective Zhao, let's talk inside!
"Don't worry, I'll give you a satisfactory answer!"
With that, Zhu Yundi took the lead and walked through the small door to the room inside.
Zhao Yu was bold, so of course, he wasn't afraid of her playing any tricks, so he immediately followed Zhu Yundi in.
Inside was a lounge, with some daily necessities and a small bed. This was probably where the casino manager rested.
The room exuded a faint fragrance, and through the porthole, they could see the scenery outside.
However, it was late at night, so it was dark outside and they couldn't see anything.
"I'm very sorry," Zhu Yundi said as she closed the door. "I just bought this ship, and it's my first time on it. I can only apologize to you about the casino!"
"To be honest, I was quite surprised," Zhao Yu said. "When I first saw you, I could already tell that you were a rich man, but I didn't expect you to be the captain of a cruise ship!"
"You must be joking," Zhu Yundi said. "We are a family business. My father started running a yacht company. Now that the business has improved, we are targeting the market for cruise ships!
This time, I'm just testing the waters!
"Detective Zhao," Zhu Yundi said as she grabbed a bottle of red wine from the table and poured a glass for Zhao Yu. "It's really an honor to meet you today. You should be able to see my excitement, right?
In my opinion, you are the real superstar! "
"Well, you flatter me like that," Zhao Yu said with a frown. "It makes me a little uneasy. Let me tell you in advance, don't think that you can forget about this matter just because you please me! "
"Oh … Oh … I'm sorry!" Zhu Yundi blushed and quickly waved her hand to explain. "You are talking about the swindler! Ahem, this is just a small matter. Maybe I'm being a bit unscrupulous, but you still have to name a price!
"Apart from the things outside that originally belonged to you, I'm willing to bear your mental losses as long as you understand and are satisfied!"
"Humph, according to the rules of the casino, a thousand will pay ten, and the casino will pay in double." Zhao Yu took a sip of his wine and said arrogantly, "This matter will cost you thirty to fifty million each. Don't even think about getting off easy!"
In fact, Zhao Yu said it in a tough manner, but he knew that the other party would not agree. The woman would definitely bargain with him.
However, Zhao Yu was wrong!
"No!" The woman said straightforwardly. "Thirty or fifty million won't do! Godly Detective Zhao, let me tell you the truth. If it were someone else, I would definitely go through the legal process and settle it as I should.
"But if it's you, I'm willing to pay you 100 million. What do you think?"
Puff …
Zhao Yu spat out the mouthful of red wine.
"Cough cough … Cough cough …" Zhao Yu coughed for a while, then waved his hand and said, "One hundred million, you … How can you treat it like it's a game?"
"My father told me that anything in this world that can be solved with money is not difficult!" Zhu Yundi also took a sip of red wine and said with melancholy, "It's a pity that there are many things that can't be solved with money!"
"Wait … You just said … One hundred million?" Zhao Yu realized the word. "What do you mean by a reward? This is called compensation, okay?
"Oh … Oh …" He thought about it seriously, then said to Zhu Yundi, "It seems like there's a hidden meaning in your words?"
"Godly Detective Zhao," Zhu Yundi said, biting her lip. "I know that you have a lot of things to deal with every day and are very busy with work.
"Why?" Zhao Yu pointed at the bed. "Do you want to pursue me? I'm sorry, I already have a girlfriend! "
"No … That's not what I mean!" Zhu Yundi said. "I just hope that you can do me a favor!"
"What?" Zhao Yu was curious. "You're the captain of a cruise ship, and you need my help? What can I help you with? "
"The case!" Zhu Yundi said solemnly. "I've been looking for an answer for a long time. Please tell me, is there really a perfect murder in this world?"
"Mm …" Zhao Yu swallowed. He had to admit that this question really stumped him. Not long ago, he had also been troubled by this question.
"It's been four years, and there's only one case in front of me!" Zhu Yundi said. "The murderer is standing in front of me, but no matter who it is, they can't make him pay for his murder!
"Isn't this a perfect murder?"
"You mean …" Zhao Yu pointed at her. "In front of you? What case? If you were talking about fifteen years ago, or even twenty-five years ago, maybe there would have been a case where the murderer could have gotten away with it!
"But … Did you say four years ago? That's … "
"Godly Detective Zhao," Zhu Yundi said. "I'm very sure that the murderer from four years ago is on this ship! If you can help me get them to plead guilty, I'm willing to pay you another one hundred million in addition to the one hundred million compensation! "
"Wow!" Zhao Yu swallowed again and murmured, "Ms. Zhu, you're really generous. Could it be … that the victim of this case is related to you?"
"Yes!" Zhu Yundi nodded. "It's my big brother, the chairman of the Tianqin Group! Four years ago, he died in a murder! But, until today, the murderer hasn't been held accountable! "
"Interesting …" Zhao Yu nodded. "I've heard of this group, a shipping tycoon! But … this is the first time I've heard of this case!
"Since the murderer has been exonerated, then …" he asked curiously. "This must be a rather complicated case? Did the murderer use special means? "
"No!" Zhu Yundi shook her head. "On the contrary, this case is very simple, so simple that anyone could do it!"
"You're kidding …" Zhu Yundi's words successfully piqued Zhao Yu's curiosity. "How could there be such a case? Tell me, what's going on? "
"The case is really simple," Zhu Yundi said. "Four years ago, my big brother, Zhu Xicheng, took the company's top management out to sea on a yacht, but he never came back!"
"What the … This …" Zhao Yu's eyes suddenly widened. "On a yacht? He never came back? Where's the body? "
"After the case, we searched the area for three months, but … sigh …" Zhu Yundi's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was choked with sobs.
"In other words …" Zhao Yu said. "Everyone on the yacht with him is a suspect?"
Zhu Yundi nodded. "Including my big brother, there were seven people on the yacht! After my big brother disappeared, the six of them were naturally suspects! "
"Ms. Zhu," Zhao Yu asked seriously, "could it be that … your big brother drank too much and accidentally fell into the water?"
"No!" Zhu Yundi said. "My big brother never drank, and he didn't know how to swim, so he was very careful.
Also, when the accident happened, his room was very messy, and there were obvious signs of a fight.
The surveillance equipment on the yacht was deliberately destroyed, so we couldn't find who entered my big brother's room that night! "
"In addition, the yacht's positioning device was also destroyed. After the incident, we couldn't accurately restore the yacht's trajectory, so we couldn't find my big brother's body!"
"So …" Zhao Yu said. "This is a premeditated murder!"
