The weather was getting hotter and hotter. The air conditioner in Team A's office was already turned to the maximum, but the police detectives were still sweating and angry.
At that very moment, the police detectives were all gathered in front of a few whiteboards, concentrating on analyzing the case of the Bank Hidden Corpse Case.
Even before Wang Shengyao made the bet, Zhao Yu was worried that Wang Shengyao and the others had already found the clues to solve the case. Was that why they were so arrogant and made such a bet with Miao Ying?
Unfortunately, Zhao Yu did not have any listening devices. So, he could only take the risk and go to the special task force's office during the chaos.
In the end, when he found the other party's investigation information, he realized that other than the newly discovered corpse, they had not locked onto any other suspects. Zhao Yu then relaxed and urged Miao Ying to agree to Wang Shengyao's bet.
But even so, the Key Case Investigation Unit's police detectives were still very worried. They were worried that they would not be able to win, but would be humiliated instead.
So, when they returned to the office, they did not even have the time to savor the joy of solving the Bank Robbery Case. They immediately set up the whiteboards, pasted the information, and entered a new round of work.
According to the information that Zhao Yu had stolen, the sixth victim was found in a safety deposit box at the Jiefang Street branch of Qinshan Bank.
In the bank, the third victim, Tong Yun's corpse, was also found.
Wang Shengyao and the others were not to be trifled with. They did not use police dogs or any advanced equipment, but rather, they found it through the usual way that the murderer kept the safe deposit boxes.
They realized that the murderer kept the safe deposit boxes regularly. He always paid ten years' worth of deposit fees in one go, then disappeared!
In the safety deposit box business, even if it was a rich person, there were very few people who would pay like that. So, through the payment records, they quickly locked onto the target!
Then, they searched all of the banks in Qinshan that had a safety deposit box business, but they did not find any suspicious safety deposit boxes.
After the autopsy, the forensic doctors confirmed that the sixth victim's condition was the same as the other victims. He had also died of starvation.
The comparison results were also out. The victim's name was Zhang Hongran, male, thirty-eight years old, a truck driver. Two years ago, he had gone missing while driving. The car had been found, but he had disappeared!
The autopsy report also stated that the man had died two years ago.
At this point, the entire time frame of the murderer's crime became clear. From Duan Dacheng seven years ago to Zhang Hongran, the murderer used the same method to kill a person every year and vacuum preserved the body in a bank safe.
According to this pattern, there was a high chance that the murderer would strike again this year!
Although the time the murderer chose to attack was not fixed, it was already past June. If the real murderer was not arrested soon, there might be new victims!
"We searched for a long time, but we couldn't find anything in common between the victims. Apart from the couple, their lives didn't intersect at all!" Miao Ying said. "So, it's very likely that the murderer randomly chose his victims! We can only investigate the disappearance of the deceased and the footage captured by the bank! "
"Indeed!" Peng Xin said, "I've heard from my seniors that the most difficult cases for the criminal police are the random murder cases! The murderer has no interest in the deceased, so we can't carry out the investigation using conventional methods! "
"Yeah!" Liu said. "From the way the murderer handled the case, he was cautious, calm, and meticulous. He left very few flaws! It's very difficult to find him! "
"Team Leader Miao!" Zhang Jingfeng said. "I've talked to the Missing Persons Department's portrait experts. They said that the murderer in the video was too well-dressed. It's impossible to find the real murderer's face like in the Bank Robbery Case! It's not easy to find the video! "
"I've also checked the murderer's clothing!" Liu said. "He was wearing very normal clothes. It's not easy to find him!"
"Then … what about the suitcases with the dead bodies?" Miao Ying asked.
"I checked that!" Liang Huan immediately answered. "The suitcases are all different styles, and none of them are branded. I've already sent out photos of all the suitcases! The police from each station will go to all the big shopping malls or wholesale markets to compare! It'll take some time! "
"Mm …" Miao Ying creased her eyebrows. She suddenly looked at Zhao Yu and said, "Zhao Yu, you agreed to the bet. Don't tell me you don't even have an idea?"
"I do!" Zhao Yu said seriously. "My idea is, we'll send two people to watch each other's every move. Once they find the murderer, I'll fight with them and hold them back. Then, you guys will go and arrest the murderer. Then, we'll cut them off! What do you think? "
What the f * ck …
The police detectives at the scene almost fainted.
"You're still joking at a time like this!" Miao Ying said angrily. "Let me put it this way. If we lose, I'll blame Wang Shengyao's three punches on you!"
"Don't, don't …" Zhao Yu quickly waved his hands and said, "I think, in some ways, the murderer is quite casual. He's not as meticulous as he looks. So, there should be some flaws! Let's look carefully again! "
"For example?" Miao Ying asked.
"For example …" Zhao Yu pointed at the whiteboard and said, "Six bodies. One was hidden in Tongchuan Bank, two were hidden in the Jiefang Road branch, and the rest were all hidden in Yuhua Road Bank! This … There's no pattern. It looks like the murderer chose randomly! Think about it. If he stored the six bodies in six different banks, wouldn't the chances of him being exposed be smaller? "
"That's not it!" Li Beini suddenly interrupted. "Senior, it's the opposite! I analyzed it carefully. It's not that the murderer didn't want to store the bodies separately, but because there weren't many banks in Qinshan that could meet the requirements! Look … "
Li Beini pointed at the whiteboard and analyzed. "Other than the one in Tongchuan Bank, the rest of the bodies were all stored in Qinshan Bank's safety deposit box! This means that the murderer thought it through! Among all the banks, Qinshan Bank's safety deposit box system was the most lax, so it was the most opportune! "
"Take Tongchuan Bank for example. Their system is obviously stricter than Qinshan Bank's. Registration requires real name authentication, and their surveillance cameras are the longest! The murderer only stored the bodies there once, and didn't dare to do it again! "
"Also, like Dajiang Bank, their safety deposit box management is even stricter. When storing items, they have to go through an X-ray inspection! The murderer definitely wouldn't dare to store the bodies there! "
"Oh …" After listening to Li Beini's analysis, Zhao Yu understood. It seemed like it was not that the murderer didn't want to store the bodies, but that they didn't meet the requirements!
"This time, Qinshan Bank will have to bear the consequences!" Liu Xueshan sighed. "It's because of the loopholes in their safety deposit boxes that the criminals could take advantage of! Not only could the murderer use it to dispose of the bodies, but it could also be used as a safety deposit box by the underground black market! The bank can't escape the blame! "
"You're right, the higher-ups of the bank must have known about these loopholes!" Li Beini said with a document in her hand. "But they can only make money if they close one eye! The data shows that Qinshan Bank's safety deposit box business is the most profitable among all the banks! The annual profit can reach millions of dollars! That's a lot of money! "
"In my opinion, we have to thank those bank robbers for this!" Dafei said emotionally. "If they hadn't accidentally pried open the safety deposit box, who knows how long it would have taken for the bodies to see the light of day again! If they found it a few decades later, it would be even harder to crack! "
