The next morning, in the special investigation group's office, the investigation of the Hidden Corpse in the Safe Deposit Box Case was still in progress.
Last night, Zhao Yu waited until midnight, but the new "Gen-Zhen" hexagram had yet to be completed. Even then, the two words "Gen-Zhen" were still displayed in the center of the system interface.
Judging from this, the difficulty of the case was definitely not low.
The case had happened thirty years ago, so the difficulty of the investigation was no less than that of the five major unsolved cases.
In terms of the nature of the case, it was no less than that of the five major unsolved cases. If it was confirmed that Gao Chaolin's family of four had died in a fire, then the case could be classified as murder!
The murderer's cruelty was definitely comparable to the murderers of the five major unsolved cases.
It had been thirty years, and there were not many clues left. There were also fewer and fewer witnesses. Plus, there was no information about the important suspect, Zhang Haoren. Hence, the difficulty of investigating the case could be imagined.
Of course, Zhao Yu had been through a lot, so he had already predicted the nature and difficulty of the case. Hence, he was not in a hurry.
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke reported to Zhao Yu. "I have already used various channels to investigate the four employees of Yida Company. They are all from Xian Zhou, Shanghai, and they are studying in the same high school!
"I have already ordered the Xian Zhou Police Station. They are now on the way to their hometown. If they can catch one of them, then we can find Zhang Haoren's whereabouts!"
"Then …" Zhao Yu found a bright spot and asked, "Since they were studying in the same high school, could Zhang Haoren be among them?"
"Yes, that's what I was thinking." Zeng Ke nodded quickly. "I have already asked them to investigate! The list of their high school classmates will be ready by the afternoon at the latest! "
"These four people …" Cui Lizhu's eyes widened. "Didn't they use their ID cards to open bank accounts or phone numbers?"
"No …" Zeng Ke shook his head. "Now, we only know their hometown address and some information about where they went to school. I suspect that after the incident in Shanghai, they changed their identities!
"Or, they have already passed away …"
"Really?" Cui Lizhu pondered. "Is it a big crime to make false accounts? Isn't this a financial crime? Are you saying that as long as you pay up, you won't have to go to jail? "
"No," Wu Xiumin explained. "Falsifying accounts depends on many situations. Generally speaking, companies will falsify accounts for profit and tax evasion purposes. This depends on the amount of money and the nature of the case. If it's serious, you'll have to bear criminal liability. If it's not serious, you'll be fined!
"However, it's different for people like Zhang Zhenghao and the others who specialize in falsifying accounts!" Wu Xiumin said. "This is a violation of financial law and criminal law. If they are caught, they will definitely have to bear criminal responsibility!
"Moreover, not only did they help others make false accounts, but they also engaged in money laundering and other illegal activities. They will be punished for several crimes as long as they are sentenced!"
"I think …" Cui Lizhu glanced at Zhao Yu and said, "After so many years, they should have let their guard down long ago.
"Boss," Cui Lizhu blinked her big bright eyes, "do you think the reason why they hid their names was not just because they were afraid of falsifying the accounts?
"Look, Sun Yujiao's arm was left in the safe. Could it be … that the fire at Sun Yujiao's house was caused by these people?
"The reason why they've been on the run for so many years is because they're afraid of murder?"
Hmm …
Zhao Yu thought about it carefully. He felt that although Cui Lizhu's guess was a little exaggerated, it was not impossible.
"By the way …" Zhao Yu looked at Cui Lizhu and asked, "How did your investigation go yesterday? Did the old man say anything? "
"Oh, I asked him," Cui Lizhu said. "The old man swore to God that he really had nothing to do with Sun Yujiao. He just said a few words to her back then!
Later, his wife saw it and scolded him. So, from then on, he never dared to talk to Sun Yujiao again! "
"His wife didn't like Sun Yujiao's beautiful appearance and arrogant attitude. She didn't like her very much …"
"Oh, it seems that we've found the wrong person!" Zhao Yu sighed. "The old man didn't know Gao Chaolin's family at all!"
Cui Lizhu said. "The old man said that, after all, they lived opposite each other, so he had a lot of contact with Gao Chaolin!
He said that when he found out that Gao Chaolin was in the ham business, he wanted to contact a friend who owned a shopping mall and buy a batch of goods from him!
But … Gao Chaolin politely refused! "
She then added, "That deal was very cost-effective for the supplier, so the old man was a little surprised …"
"Later, he found out that, although Gao Chaolin's ham business was very big, they didn't set up a company, nor did they apply for a license. They didn't even have a health inspection permit …"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu was surprised. "They didn't have any products, and they were doing it so big that they even lived in a mansion? Is there … something wrong with this? "
"The old man said that he suspected that Gao Chaolin's family was in the shipping business!" Cui Lizhu said. "The so-called shipping business actually referred to smuggling."
Cui Lizhu then added, "However, most of the people who came into contact with smuggled goods from abroad. Gao Chaolin, on the other hand, smuggled his ham overseas. There were specialized factories overseas that would package their ham as famous brands and earn high profits!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu grinned. "I didn't expect that smugglers also did export business!"
"Of course," Cui Lizhu said. "The old man was just guessing. He used to work in the Chamber of Commerce. He said that in Shanghai in that era, there were too many cases like this!"
"Wait a minute …" Ran Tao suddenly realized something. He scratched his head and said, "If Gao Chaolin's family was in the smuggling business, then … They didn't have a company or a license, so they wouldn't have to pay taxes!
"Since they didn't have to pay taxes, then they wouldn't have to make false accounts. Doesn't that mean that they have nothing to do with Yida Property Company?"
"That's not necessarily true," Wu Xiumin said. Wu Xiumin said, "Yi Da helps people launder money. Businesses like Gao Chaolin's that don't see the light of day require money laundering the most!"
"F * ck!" Ran Tao scolded. "If that's the case, I have to catch Gao Chaolin's brother and interrogate him in detail!"
"Yes," Zhao Yu said, nodding. "I think so too. This kid might be hiding something!"
"Boss," Ran Tao reported to Zhao Yu. "According to the clues provided by the Economic Investigation Team, we have found several people who have cooperated with Yida Property Company.
They have all seen Zhang Haohao and provided us with more detailed clues. I have already called the portrait artist over. I think the portrait will be ready by the time we get off work in the afternoon! "
"Okay, then …" Zhao Yu quickly asked, "Did these people mention the safe?"
"Yes," Ran Tao replied. "We showed them the safe. Two of them said that they had a vague impression of it, while one said that it was similar. Only one could confirm that he had seen the safe in Zhang Haohao's office!"
"Mm …" Zhao Yu nodded. "It seems that the evidence is pointing more and more to Zhang Haohao! But I just don't understand. Since he ran away, why didn't he take the arm away?
"Why did the safe stay in the basement for more than 20 years? If we hadn't investigated Zhu Yundi, I'm afraid it would have been discovered long ago!"
"Boss, boss …" Cui Lizhu suddenly said. "I have been thinking about this question for several nights. In the end, I finally figured it out. I think there is only one reason why the criminal didn't take the arm away!"
"Oh? What reason? "Zhao Yu asked.
"He …" Cui Lizhu said seriously. "He forgot the password to the safe …"
