Blah blah …
At ten o 'clock in the evening, Ran Tao was slurping hot instant noodles into his mouth.
"Boss, what did you have for dinner?" Ran Tao asked with concern. "Are you hungry? Would you like some? "
"We ate Cross the Bridge Noodles." Zhao Yu looked at the information that Ran Tao had brought over and said without looking up, "So … There are 22 suspects to investigate?"
Ran Tao then said, "There are 20 people left, and we've already ruled out two of them. We made this judgment based on the cars that stopped near Xu Youran's house during the time when she was killed.
"More than half of them came from the parking lot of the shopping street. But … "Ran Tao said seriously," To be more precise, all the vehicles we found were suspicious. If the murderer chose to walk or use other small means of transportation, it would be difficult to judge! "
"If the culprit wanted to go to Xu Youran's house to commit a crime, he would have to be carrying a large backpack that could hold an axe, a robe, and a mask!" Zhao Yu said. "Have you found a suspect like that?"
"I did, but there were too many of them." Ran Tao shook his head and said, "The commercial street is full of backpackers. They come from the south and from the north, so it's really difficult to investigate.
"Moreover, a person is different from a car. At least a car has a license plate, but a person can only be identified by their face!"
"Old rules, Tao," Zhao Yu said. "Go back and check Xu Youran's recent movements. See if anyone followed her.
"Since the murderer has made sufficient preparations, he must have thoroughly investigated Xu Youran!"
"Understood, understood!" Ran Tao said, "Don't worry, boss. I've been in the field for so long, so I'm already familiar with these basic investigations!
"Criminals nowadays are too cunning." Ran Tao sighed. "They broke into a house and killed someone so brazenly, and it was even broadcasted live. Yet, they didn't leave any traces. It's so infuriating!
Ran Tao asked, "By the way, have you made any progress in terms of interpersonal relationships?"
Hearing Ran Tao's question, Zhao Yu briefly told him about the results of his investigation.
"Hey! Ran Tao said gloomily, "Although it's warm here, I feel like I'm back in Manchuria!"
As Zhao Yu read the information, he walked to the whiteboard and started adding more information to it.
Ran Tao drank all the soup in the instant noodle box, then asked Zhao Yu, "Boss, I want to ask you something. This time, you didn't let Xi Mengna come over. Is it because of the martial arts competition between you two?"
It wasn't the first time that Zhao Yu had heard such words, so he ignored Ran Tao and continued to add more information.
"Hmm …" Ran Tao stood up and said, "If that's the case, I'll continue. I'll go to the video team and see if there's any new news …"
Zhao Yu still ignored him.
Ran Tao had no choice but to clean up the instant noodles and leave the office.
However, before he could go out, a travel-worn person came in from outside!
"Eh? Team Leader Miao? "Ran Tao was surprised." Why are you back? Didn't you go to Jingjiang with Zhang Peipei? What? Are you done? "
Hearing Miao Ying's name, Zhao Yu was surprised and quickly turned around.
"Zhao Yu …" Miao Ying came directly to Zhao Yu and said, "This case in Jingjiang is a bit strange …"
"Really?" Zhao Yu quickly moved a chair for Miao Ying and said, "Is it because of the corpse? I have already talked to the Criminal Division. Gao Facai will arrive at 9 am tomorrow at the latest. The equipment has been flown over … "
"Strange?" Ran Tao's curiosity was piqued. He also pulled a chair and sat down.
At the same time, Zeng Ke, who was working in front of the computer in the distance, stopped what he was doing and listened carefully.
After Miao Ying sat down, she said, "The last time I fought with a corpse was when I was in the Seven Star Hanging Coffins! Strange things happen every year, and this year it happened again!"
"Tao," Zhao Yu said, pointing to the water dispenser in the distance. "Can you be more observant?"
"Oh, oh …" Ran Tao understood and quickly went to the water dispenser to pour water for Miao Ying.
"Zhao Yu," Miao Ying said. "This time, we'll have to investigate both cases! Zhang Peipei is extracting her DNA and comparing it with the missing persons database as soon as possible. I hope we can find out her identity as soon as possible! "
"Slow down," Zhao Yu reminded her. "Since the discovery of such a female corpse in Jingjiang, why do I feel that all of you are confused?
"Tell me, what's so strange about her?"
"Um …" Miao Ying thought for a moment, then hurriedly turned on her mobile phone. "Let me show you a few photos!"
At this time, Ran Tao had already fetched some hot water. After handing the cup to Miao Ying, he quickly moved closer to Zhao Yu.
Out of curiosity, Zeng Ke couldn't resist the temptation, so he left his desk and came closer to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu saw that it wasn't a photo on the mobile phone, but a video.
On the bank of the clear river, there was a woman in a white woolen sweater and a black skirt.
The woman had bright red lips and thick eyebrows. Her big eyes were wide open.
If it weren't for her dilated pupils, he would have thought that there was a living person lying on the ground!
The most surprising thing was that the woman's body was wet, but there was white steam coming out of her body, as if she had just been steamed.
"How … How could this be?" Ran Tao was dumbfounded. "Why is there white smoke?"
"It's not just white smoke," Miao Ying said. "According to the witness who first found the corpse, there was ice on the body …"
"Ice shards …" Ran Tao hurriedly asked, "Are they frozen?"
"The deceased must have been washed ashore from the river!" Miao Ying said. "The temperature of Jingjiang is about 25 degrees all year round, so it's impossible for it to be frozen …"
"Wow, what does that mean?" Ran Tao was puzzled. "Where did the ice come from?"
"What about the cause of death?" Zhao Yu asked. "Haven't you found it yet?"
"Yes," Miao Ying said. "It wasn't drowning, and there were no external injuries. It didn't seem like poisoning.
As for the autopsy … Zhang Peipei hesitated for a long time, but in the end, she didn't dare to do it, because she found that the body was unusual. She was afraid that it would be handled improperly, so she asked for Gao Facai and some experts to come over! "
"Unusual?" Zhao Yu asked. "Is it because of the white smoke?"
"Zhang Peipei found that the body of the female corpse may have been frozen for a long time," Miao Ying said. "The internal organs are still frozen …"
"No way! Zhao Yu smacked his lips and said, "In that case, should we bring Guo Fengzhan here?
He just dealt with the frozen corpses in Manchuria! "
"Oh my God …" Ran Tao thought for a moment, then said, "Someone threw a frozen woman into the river. What kind of trick is this?"
"That's not the weirdest part." Miao Ying swiped her mobile phone and opened another photo. "Look, this is a photo found in the pocket of the corpse!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu looked at it carefully and found that it was a black and white photo!
