What a scam!
In the safe house, Zhao Yu was furious. He punched the table, which was made of marble. After that, Zhao Yu blew at his hand.
Just now, Zhao Yu had spent 1,700 adventure points to strengthen the Invisible Browser. Then, he used the browser to search for any art exhibitions that had been held in Tokyo during the period when Xin Jia was murdered.
However, after spending 1,700 points, the browser only gave two words: No!
Now, all his points had gone down the drain!
Zhao Yu thought that if there were no large exhibitions, there would at least be some small and medium-sized exhibitions.
Unexpectedly, during that period, there were no exhibitions at all!
It seemed that, even though Tokyo was an international metropolis, there were not always art exhibitions.
Then …
It seemed that it really had nothing to do with the art exhibition. Or … The art exhibition was not in Tokyo, but in Osaka or Nagoya?
Was it because it was far from the crime scene that the murderer was able to avoid investigation?
No … No …
Zhao Yu had read the detailed case information. The police had focused on investigating the traffic in that area. If there was such a stranger, it was possible that they would have found him!
So, Zhao Yu concluded that the murderer should be in Tokyo, and not too far from the crime scene.
Perhaps the murderer had walked to the place where Xin Jia had been killed in Ping City …
"Zhao Yu, look at this …"
Suddenly, Li Bencheng appeared in front of Zhao Yu and showed him his laptop.
"This … What is this?" Zhao Yu saw that there were a lot of foreigners' information on the screen. There were photos and English introductions.
"These are all international rich people who like to collect Van Gogh's works!" Li Bencheng said, his eyes shining. "Let's search for information on these people. Maybe the perverted murderer is hiding among them!"
"This …" Zhao Yu frowned and said, "Old Li, for example, if these rich people already have Van Gogh's works, does that mean that his desire has been satisfied?
"Don't you think that the murderer should be someone who couldn't get Van Gogh's works?"
"How can this be absolute?" Li Bencheng argued. "Van Gogh's works are all expensive. It would be amazing for these people to have one or two of them!
They must be drooling over the works that they couldn't get, so they are full of desire … "
"Since I can't buy a painting, I'll kill someone and make it look like a Van Gogh painting. I'll add a sunflower and cut off the ear …"
"Mm … Well, since you insist, I won't object!" Zhao Yu said. "You check your own, and I'll check mine. Or …"
"Alright!" Li Bencheng said solemnly. "As long as I find someone who is of the right age, behaves weirdly, and is a bit perverted, and the time of the crime matches, the case will be solved!"
While talking, Li Bencheng noticed what Zhao Yu was studying and asked, "What are you investigating? Didn't I check it already? There were no art exhibitions during the time of the crime!
"It seems like you still insist that the murderer is a painter? Is he an artist? "
"Mm …" Zhao Yu said. "I think this is more in line with the murderer's psychological profile …"
"Do you think … the art exhibition hasn't been held yet?" Li Bencheng guessed. "The murderer is just here to prepare for the exhibition? Should I lengthen the time or expand the scope? Expand to all of Japan? "
"Mm … We can try," Zhao Yu said. "As long as there is a chance, we will fight for it!"
Beep beep … Beep beep …
Just then, Zhao Yu's phone rang. Someone had sent him a message.
Zhao Yu saw that the message was from Miao Ying. Miao Ying told him that there had been no cases similar to the left ear in the country.
Because there were too many cases, they would continue to investigate and contact Zhao Yu if there was any news.
Zhao Yu closed the message and thought of his Invisible Browser.
Since the browser was so powerful, why not let it check to see how many left ear cases there were in the world?
So, he opened the Invisible Browser and filled in the characteristics of the left ear case in the search bar. Then, he clicked on the search button.
In the end, the system told him that searching for the content would cost him 6,312 points.
Zhao Yu wanted to curse out loud. Isn't this daylight robbery?
However, since he could find out by spending points, it was a shortcut! That would save him the trouble of investigating …
Alright!
He looked at his 290,000 points and gritted his teeth. Then, he spent the 6,000 points!
The system told him that the enhancement was successful and that it was searching. After a while, it gave him the answer.
This time, the system didn't lie to him. There were more than a hundred answers …
Holy sh * t!
Zhao Yu was shocked at first. He thought that he had encountered a shocking killer. But, when he looked carefully, he realized that some of the cases didn't match the characteristics of the left ear case.
Some of the victims weren't women, some were killed out of passion, and some had their ears or other organs cut off …
Oh …
So, Zhao Yu picked up a pen and paper and started to filter through the results.
Soon, he found familiar cases from the search results. For example, Bangkok in 1990, Tokyo Sunflower Case in 1991, Seoul, New Delhi, New York, and so on …
After filtering for an hour, Zhao Yu finally found a case that was highly suspected to be the left ear killer!
When he finished summarizing the results, his heart started racing. He found it hard to believe.
He thought that the left ear killer had started in Bangkok in 1990 and stopped in Toronto in 1995!
But, the truth was far beyond his expectations. After 1995, the left ear killer did stop for a period of time!
But, from 1999, he started to strike again!
And, it got worse. From Sydney in 1999, Istanbul, to Paris in 2001, all the way to Lisbon and Barcelona in 2003, he committed eight crimes in the next four years. Almost every year, he killed two innocent girls!!!
Including the cases before 1995, the left ear killer had killed at least nineteen people!
This … This is the killer of the century!
Why … Why hasn't the world found out about such a big case?
Successor … Why did the successor ask me to solve this case?
Really, just for me to solve the case and catch the killer?
But …
Zhao Yu realized that the left ear killer hadn't made a move since 2003. He didn't know if he had changed his methods, or if something had happened to him.
If … This person was no longer in this world, then …
Tsk tsk …
Looking at the records of the cases in the notebook, Zhao Yu felt that the case was not simple!
So … To find out who the left ear killer was, how should he investigate?
This person had been to so many big international cities. Was he an artist, a psychopathic rich businessman, or someone else?
Could it be that every time he committed a crime, he left no traces?
Mm …
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu realized an important problem. In the nineties, DNA technology was not developed yet, and the cases happened in different countries, so the methods of investigation were different!
But, for the cases after 2000, did the technology become more advanced?
Cameras, DNA, blood tests, skin samples, etc … Could it be that … The killer really didn't leave any clues?
What if the police of a certain country had found the killer's information?
Wouldn't that make the case easier to solve?
