When Zhao Yu woke up from his nightmare, it was already four o 'clock in the morning.
The sky was still dark outside, and there was no wind. The room was stuffy, and Zhao Yu was covered in sweat.
It's too scary! What you think about during the day, you dream about it at night. Investigating a case with a dead person in an ancient tomb, I always feel a little timid …
Zhao Yu switched on the table lamp and drank some water. He wanted to switch on the air conditioner to continue sleeping, but suddenly, he thought of the Ming Dynasty vase outside the room.
Damn!
Could it be that this vase was also dug out from a tomb? Why does it feel so gloomy?
Although Zhao Yu knew that it was his own mind playing tricks on him, after he laid down, he couldn't fall asleep!
If it were in the past, with the dog Daheng around, he might feel more at ease. Unfortunately, Jiang Xiaoqing had just finished her high school entrance exams and brought Daheng to the countryside to play!
I might as well not sleep anymore!
Zhao Yu got up to check his phone to see if there was any progress regarding the Tomb Murder Case on the intranet. When he opened it, it was still the same. Although Moyang Branch found the stolen relics, they didn't find any tomb robbers. It was as if they had suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of Li Xiusheng's hypothesis, the Golden Buddha Temple, the Twelve Golden Buddhas, and so on. It was these things that made this not simple case even more complicated.
Then … What is the truth?
Is it related to the Golden Buddha Temple?
But … Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something. If he could go to the three old experts' house to look for information related to the Golden Buddha Temple, would he be able to find any clues?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu suddenly became energetic. He immediately washed his face, put on his clothes, and went to the police station with his gun.
The sun was rising from the east, but the earth was still shrouded in darkness.
On the way to the police station, Zhao Yu lit up a cigarette and opened a new hexagram for himself.
As the saying goes, 'Hard work pays off'. This time, Zhao Yu finally opened a "Gen" hexagram. It was a "Gen-Kan" hexagram!
At that moment, Zhao Yu didn't even care about the "Kan" hexagram, which represented a woman. As long as he could open a "Gen" hexagram, he was more excited than anything else.
Alright!
If that's the case, I'll use today's "Gen" hexagram to investigate! Maybe they could get to the bottom of the case today!
There were people on duty 24 hours a day at the car pickup and ammunition storage. Zhao Yu first returned the car and the gun, then strode to the office.
Unexpectedly, the lights in the office were still on. There should be a colleague on duty throughout the night.
Zhao Yu opened the door gently, only to find that the office was quiet. The whiteboard in front of him had been split into three. Two of them were for the Tomb Murder Case, while the other one was for the Female Corpse in the Ancient Costume Case from eighteen years ago.
Zhao Yu knew that if he wanted to add more information about the Gold Buddha Temple and the Gold Buddha, he would need to add a fourth whiteboard.
"Zhao Yu … What's going on?"
Suddenly, Zhao Yu heard a familiar female voice coming from the corner. He looked towards the source of the voice, and to his surprise, it was Miao Ying, Team Leader Miao!
Miao Ying was lying tiredly in a corner where the light didn't shine. She seemed to be in a daze.
"You … didn't leave?"
Seeing how tired Miao Ying was, Zhao Yu suddenly felt sorry for her. He quickly took off his jacket and put it on Miao Ying.
"Why are you here in the middle of the night? Is there a new clue? Mm? "Miao Ying couldn't even open her eyes. She was almost talking with her eyes closed.
"No, no!" Zhao Yu patted Miao Ying's back gently and comforted her. "I am here to analyze the case. Team Leader Miao, I am awake. You are tired. Let's take over! You sleep well, leave this to me … "
Zhao Yu patted her gently a few times, and Miao Ying fell asleep.
Zhao Yu waited until Miao Ying's breathing became heavy, then he left the table quietly. Looking at Miao Ying sleeping soundly, he felt a little sour in his heart. For this case, it was really hard on this tough lady!
With so many branches competing, as a girl, she naturally felt the burden on her shoulders.
"Don't worry, Team Leader Miao!" Zhao Yu said in his heart. "No matter what, I will help you share the burden! This time, just watch me! I will do my best to help you solve the case before anyone else! "
Then, Zhao Yu turned around and walked to the whiteboard. He started to study the case carefully. After he reviewed all the case details, he pulled another whiteboard over and added the information about the Gold Buddha Temple and the Golden Buddha.
When he was done adding the information, the sky was almost bright. The sunlight shone in through the window. Without switching on the lights, he could see the information on the whiteboard clearly.
Luya prefect Qiu Cheng, praying for rain in the Gold Buddha Temple, the twelve Golden Buddha statues, the prefect's tomb, the deceased in the coffin, the three old experts … Zhao Yu arranged the information in chronological order. Then, he realized that in the information, there were actually many things that couldn't be explained clearly.
The three old experts, what role did they play in the tomb robbery case?
Was it really to look for the Golden Buddha statues?
Then … Was there really a Golden Buddha statue in the prefect's tomb?
If there was, why did the tomb robbers only kill one old expert? The three old experts were like brothers, so it was impossible for them to kill each other. There must be a reason behind it.
But, if there wasn't any Golden Buddha statue, why didn't the tomb robbers take everything away? Plus, why did they find the cultural relics, but not the tomb robbers?
Did the tomb robbers run away with the Golden Buddha statues, or did they do something else? Where would the remaining two old experts be?
Tsk tsk …
The more Zhao Yu thought about it, the more he felt that the case was full of contradictions. There were many things that couldn't be explained!
According to Li Xiusheng's speculation, if the prefect Qiu Cheng really devoured the twelve Golden Buddha statues, he would naturally bring the Golden Buddha statues to the tomb to be buried with him. Because of this, he built the tomb in a place that wasn't particular about Fengshui, in order to prevent the tomb robbers from destroying it.
But, according to Zhao Yu's own understanding and knowledge, he felt that the possibility of the prefect Qiu bringing the Golden Buddha statues to his tomb was not high.
Because the Golden Buddha statues were too valuable. Even if the prefect Qiu left his last wish to have the Golden Buddha statues to be buried with him, his children might not let him have his wish come true!?
After all, Qiu Cheng was just a prefect. He wasn't a relative of the king, nor was he a wealthy local tyrant. So, how could his children not think about his Golden Buddha statues?
Maybe, just like how Qiu Cheng fooled the people, after his death, his children made some fake Golden Buddha statues for him and placed them in the tomb!
Could it be that the fake Golden Buddha statues fooled the tomb robbers too?
Cough!
