"Ten people, three of them already had their hands chopped off!" Li Beini pointed at the list as she peeled the shrimp. "Could it be that the murderer is one of the remaining seven?"
"Possible …" Zhao Yu thought for a few seconds, then said, "But … the top three can be eliminated! Their results were so good, why would they want to chop off the hands of the losers? "
"That's right …" Li Beini was also very excited. She pointed at the list and said, "Senior, look … the first victim, Gao Tian, came in sixth in the piano competition. Then Yuan Lili came in fifth, and Luo Meina came in fourth … The murderer is chopping off hands in order! I think the murderer is definitely not in sixth place! From seventh to tenth, these four are the most suspicious! "
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded. "Since it started from sixth place, seventh place is the most suspicious. I think he's most likely the murderer!"
"No, no, no …" Li Beini shook her head and said, "I've looked into these people's backgrounds! The person in seventh place, Sheng Lei, passed away in a car accident ten years ago! That's impossible! "
"Ah? If that's the case … "Zhao Yu was surprised." Then there are only three suspects left? "
"Two!" Li Beini said with certainty, "Ninth place has a bone tumor and hasn't gotten out of bed in years! Only eighth and tenth place are possible, but eighth place doesn't live in this city. He lives in another province all year round. Only tenth place fits the criteria! "
"No way?" Zhao Yu suddenly felt very nervous. He was deeply afraid that this time would be the same as before. He had clearly found the key point, but still failed.
"Don't be discouraged!" Li Beini comforted him. "We can't let the one in another province go either. I've already looked into his address! This afternoon, let's focus on tenth place! Maybe … it's her? "
Zhao Yu looked at tenth place carefully. It was a woman's name. He could not help but feel nervous and excited. Could it be … the murderer of the Lost Hand Case was really a woman?!
"Senior, other than looking for the murderer, there's one more thing we can't ignore!" Li Beini reminded him. "Tomorrow is the 26th. If the murderer hasn't stopped yet, we have to make some preparations …"
"Oh, right! Got it, got it! " Zhao Yu pointed at the list and said, "If the murderer really wanted to make a move, the next target would definitely be number three, right?"
"Not necessarily!" Li Beini shook her head again. "The third place, Shao Lulu, has now moved to Australia with her whole family! Could it be that … the murderer would travel across the ocean to chop off her hand? In addition, Lu Tao, the champion of that year's piano competition, was now the director of the Academic Affairs Department of the Capital Conservatory of Music, which was slightly further away. The way I see it, only the person in second place that year is most likely to become the murderer's next target! "
"Li Xinhua?" Zhao Yu glanced at the name list. "What a lame name. I wonder if it's a man or a woman?"
"A woman!" Li Beini answered, "This person is the principal of Childlike Innocence Art School. She lives in Qinshan City. If I were the murderer, I would definitely choose her!"
"In that case, our mission is very important!" Zhao Yu sighed. "We have to catch the murderer and protect the next victim! Time is of the essence! "
"Yes!" Li Beini had already finished eating. She quickly took a sip of juice and said, "But we have to go back to the office first! We haven't found the exact addresses of these people yet. Also, I want to check the organizer of the competition, as well as the judges and staff, and see if we can get any information from them. "
"Very detailed, I like it!"
Zhao Yu quickly took a few bites, then paid the bill and returned to Team A's office with Li Beini.
Enemies were bound to meet!
As the two entered, they saw Liu Changhu with his hands behind his back. He was standing in front of the whiteboard that Zhao Yu used to analyze the case, looking at something with great interest.
It was lunch break, and there were no other investigators in the office.
"Oh? So dedicated? " Liu Changhu did not panic after seeing Zhao Yu and Li Beini, but laughed. "What, you're not even taking a lunch break?"
"Captain Liu!"
Li Beini greeted him politely. Zhao Yu crossed his arms and walked in front of Liu Changhu, scolding him bluntly, "If you have something to say, then say it! If not, then get lost!"
"You!?" Liu Changhu's eyes widened, and he immediately pointed at the whiteboard and laughed coldly. "Alright, you, Zhao Yu! Looks like … you really want to win? Is it … the case is going to be solved soon, hm? I'll have to prepare the 1800 yuan for you early, hm?
"Hehehe …" He laughed excitedly. "Why don't you think about yourself first? Team B isn't right or wrong. So many people are investigating, and they still haven't found anything! You're just a stupid hooligan, and you want to solve the case right in front of them? Hmph! Wishful thinking! If you know what's good for you, apologize to me soon. That way, when you admit defeat, I'll give you a way out and not scold you so much. If not, hmph! I'll make sure you'll never be able to raise your head in front of the whole team!
"Beini …" Before Zhao Yu could retaliate, he turned to Li Beini. "Listen to me, captain. Don't get too close to people like this! You're a pretty good comrade, if you hang around with hooligans for too long, they'll lead you astray! "
"…" Li Beini lowered her head with an ugly expression. She did not dare to retort, nor did she dare to agree.
"Beini!" Zhao Yu lightly patted Li Beini's shoulder. "Help me get a cup of coffee, okay? I want a large one! "
"Zhao Yu! Don't give me that! "Liu Changhu immediately understood Zhao Yu's meaning." Are you going to throw a coffee cup at me? " He pointed at Zhao Yu's nose arrogantly. "Let me tell you, last time I was being lenient. If you dare touch me again, I'll sue you until you're fired!"
Liu Changhu's words were true. According to the latest constitution, attacking or beating up a police officer without permission could result in a prison sentence of up to three years. Even though they were both police officers, being fired was inevitable.
The last time Zhao Yu had acted rashly, it was mainly because he had just traveled to another world, and he had never wanted to be a police officer. But the situation was different now, and he would not be so rash again!
Even though he could not use force, as a hooligan with no morals, Zhao Yu had his own ways of dealing with people. As Liu Changhu walked past him towards the main door, Zhao Yu suddenly turned around and shouted from behind him!
"Woah!"
His voice was like thunder, scaring Liu Changhu so much that he stumbled, knocking over a large pile of documents while muttering to himself.
Liu Changhu was already wary of Zhao Yu, and this time he was scared out of his wits, his face turning white.
"You … you …"
He pointed at Zhao Yu, trembling, but could not say anything.
"Hahahaha …" Zhao Yu laughed like a pig being slaughtered, even his back was bent over. He thought to himself, "I scared you, it's not illegal, right? What? What can you do to me? What?
