That night, in the temporary office of the Special Investigation Group of the Manchurian Police Station …
Although Manchurian was a port city, it was only a county-level city. Due to the peace and stability of the area, its police facilities and system were relatively backward.
The simple office reminded Zhao Yu of the Golden City.
However, in such a cold place, the facilities were no longer important. What was important was the warmth.
The heater in the police station was very hot, so Zhao Yu took off his sweater and put on a shirt.
Cui Lizhu, who had just arrived at the office, said, "This place is really unique. There are several foreigners in uniform in the police station!"
Ran Tao explained, "They are the local minorities. There are also many mixed-race people!"
"You're the only one who understands … Sigh …" Cui Lizhu opened her backpack and poured a large bag of coffee, sweets, and coconut pancakes onto the table. "Don't blame me for being stingy. I just arrived in Hailan, and I haven't even started my vacation yet.
"I just checked the navigation map. It's 4,800 kilometers!" Cui Lizhu said. "I traveled from south to north, across the whole country!"
"Alright, it's not bad to be able to eat the candy that I brought from Hailan!" Ran Tao quickly grabbed a handful and put it in his pocket.
Cui Lizhu said as she tidied up her down jacket, "I also brought a few coconuts for everyone, but I didn't have time to check them in.
If I had missed the flight, I'm afraid … Um … "
Cui Lizhu was shocked when she saw Xi Mengna.
"This … This …" Cui Lizhu looked at the tall Xi Mengna and asked, "Is this the captain of the local criminal police? Why does she look like a Barbie doll? She has nine heads and a golden ratio. Is she also a mixed-race person? "
"This is my private female secretary." Zhao Yu gently pressed Xi Mengna's shoulder and said, "You can call her Nana!"
"Wow …" Cui Lizhu's eyes almost fell to the ground. She quickly turned around and grabbed Miao Ying's arm, then pointed at Zhao Yu and said, "Sister Miao, Sister Miao, how can you tolerate this? Why aren't you beating him up yet? Beat this fickle man! "
"Hehe …" Miao Ying smiled and explained, "Don't listen to Zhao Yu's nonsense. This is a new colleague from the top!"
"Oh … That's too intimate, Boss! My Sister Miao is still here! "Cui Lizhu stood up for Miao Ying." Don't be too proud! "
"This is Cui Lizhu, nicknamed Little Pearl …" Zhao Yu pointed at Cui Lizhu and introduced her to Xi Mengna.
Xi Mengna extended her hand in a friendly manner. Cui Lizhu was embarrassed, so she shook her hand.
However, in the process of shaking hands, Xi Mengna noticed that Cui Lizhu didn't have a little finger on her hand, and a strange look appeared in her eyes.
Cui Lizhu quickly withdrew her hand and asked, "Your first name is Nana. What's your surname?"
"Hmm …" Xi Mengna hesitated.
"Her surname is Na, Na Na …" Zhao Yu reacted quickly and lied.
"That … surname That? Is it really an ethnic minority? "Cui Lizhu raised her eyebrows, expressing her doubt." Why was she hesitating just now? Doesn't she know her own name? "
"Why do you have so much nonsense to say?" Zhao Yu frowned. "Just remember that she's your new colleague!"
"Yes, yes!" Miao Ying quickly came over to smooth things over. "Na Na is here for an internship. She's just learning from us. You don't have to pay attention to her!"
"Is she really not a mixed-race?" Cui Lizhu still looked at Xi Mengna. "Isn't she too pretty? Sister Miao, you really have to be careful. I know Boss best. Her self-control isn't as good as you think … "
"Alright, alright." Miao Ying pulled Cui Lizhu aside and said, "You've come all the way here. You must be tired. You should rest first!"
"I'm not tired," Cui Lizhu said. "I slept on the plane all day. I've been curious about what kind of case this is. Since Boss is here, it can't be a small case.
"Hurry up and tell me about the case!"
"We're in the middle of a discussion!" Zhao Yu said, pointing at the big screen. "Just listen!"
"Oh … Okay …" Cui Lizhu quickly took a chair and sat down. She took out her notebook and was ready to take notes.
"What were we talking about?" Zhao Yu asked Xi Mengna.
"We were talking about the Bucharest Suspension Bridge Female Corpses Case from eighty years ago," Xi Mengna said. "I feel that the case in front of us has nothing to do with that world's cold case!
"Look," Xi Mengna said, pointing at the big screen. There was information about the Suspension Bridge Female Corpses Case on it. "Due to special historical reasons, the Vica River is almost always covered by suspension bridges!
When a large ship passes by, the suspension bridge can be lifted by a steel cable to facilitate the ship's passage. So, there are many steel frames under the bridge! "
Miao Ying said. "The murderer killed the victims through the passage under the bridge, then hung them on the steel frames!
The bridge is more than twenty meters away from the water … "
"Also," Xi Mengna said, "the female victims were all wearing clothes, and their bodies were painted with religious symbols. There were also no signs of sexual assault.
So, I think that the case in front of us has nothing to do with the Bucharest Suspension Bridge Female Corpses Case! "
"Eighty years ago … Oh God …" Cui Lizhu gasped and asked Miao Ying anxiously, "Sis Miao, what have we encountered?"
"Yes, I think so too," Zhao Yu said. "This is just the work of netizens. They linked the Manchurian case to the Suspension Bridge Female Corpses Case.
So, we can ignore this theory for the time being. Let's use traditional methods to solve the case! "
"Team Leader Zhao," Miao Ying said. "Since the three victims are all young Russian women, it is obvious that the murderer has a purpose for killing them!
We have to find out the relationship between the three victims as soon as possible, as well as their personal relationships. This is definitely the key to solving the case! "
"Of course …" Zhao Yu said. "Although the identity of the third victim hasn't been revealed yet, Captain Qiu has already investigated the first two victims in detail!
"Both Eliza and Zhang Mei came from Kuyaska, a city in the far east of Russia. Based on the ratio of the Russian population in Manchuria, Kuyaska is about one-fifth of the population.
"According to Captain Qiu's investigation, other than coming from the same city, there is no obvious connection between the two of them.
"Their ages and occupations are different. Their phone numbers and WeChat Moments are also different. We can only wait for Zeng Ke to come and do a more detailed check on them …"
Tok tok tok …
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Then, Captain Chou rushed in from outside and said to Zhao Yu and the others, "Don't worry.
"Investigators, we've found the identity of the third victim …"
