It was two o 'clock at night.
At a luxurious bath center in Jinping, in the men's section.
Under the steam, Zhao Yu, Zeng Ke, and Ran Tao were soaking in the bath, enjoying the comfortable hot spring.
"Team Leader, is the psychologist sister alright?" Ran Tao, who was on the right, asked Zhao Yu, who was in the middle. "If she had cut her artery, it would be no laughing matter!"
"She's fine!" Zeng Ke, who was on the left, answered on Zhao Yu's behalf. "The doctor said that the glass didn't cut her artery. It was just a superficial wound. But, just in case, she needs to stay in the hospital for observation. Tomorrow morning, we will go and pick her up. "
"That's great!" Ran Tao let out a sigh of relief. "I was worried that, if she were to die, no one would argue with me!"
"Hehe, you're really something!" Zeng Ke shook his head, then turned to Zhao Yu and whispered, "Team Leader, isn't it a little inappropriate for us to come out and take a bath like this? Although Liu Yu is dead, I think that there should be a lot of problems with the case. Why don't I go back and listen to the news? "
"Yeah!" Zeng Ke said. Ran Tao immediately agreed. "This Hasty Murder Case is really weird! I never expected such an ending. In the end, why did Liu Yu commit suicide? Could it be that he wanted to perish together with Han Zhenhai? "
"It really doesn't make sense!" Zeng Ke voiced his opinion. "Even if Liu Yu didn't have the chance to extort a huge sum of money, he definitely had the chance to escape. Hence, it was too sudden for him to perish together with Han Zhenhai! I feel that there must be more to the case. Plus, besides Liu Yu, there might be other accomplices. "
"I feel the same way, but …" Ran Tao scratched his head and said, "As for the motive, Liu Yu killed because he had a deep grudge against the deceased and the pharmaceutical factory. Hence, his suicide could be attributed to his fear of punishment. But, if he really had accomplices, what were they after? He burned five million yuan, so it was obvious that it wasn't for the money! "
"Now that you mentioned it, could it be that … Liu Yu committed suicide to cover for his accomplice?" Zeng Ke guessed. "Once he died, the police wouldn't pursue his accomplice?"
"Yeah … That's why I said that this case is really strange. Team Leader, what do you think?" Ran Tao turned to Zhao Yu and asked. However, Zhao Yu still didn't say anything.
Zhao Yu's face was covered with a white towel. Ran Tao took a closer look. When he took off the white towel, he was shocked to see that Zhao Yu was snoring and had fallen asleep!
Ran Tao shook his head and said, "Holy sh * t, how can you fall asleep like this?"
"No, this is not a place to sleep!" Zeng Ke was kind-hearted, so he hurriedly gestured to Ran Tao. "Team Leader is too tired. Let's carry him to the lounge to sleep!"
Just as the two of them started fighting, Zhao Yu suddenly shouted, "Don't move! Let's soak for a while more … "
Hmm …
Ran Tao didn't dare to disobey the order, so he let go.
"In the past four days, six people died! Burning money, explosions, such a big commotion … Hehe … "Zhao Yu wiped the water off his face, then closed his eyes and said," It's a pity that I realized it too late! If Liu Yu hadn't died, I'm afraid that I would still be staring at such a small place! "
"Mm … Team Leader, what do you mean?" Ran Tao could tell that Zhao Yu was implying something.
"Have you ever thought that maybe … From the very beginning, we were wrong?" Zhao Yu said meaningfully. "What if the real murderer wasn't Liu Yu?"
"What? Not Liu Yu? Then … Who could it be? "Zeng Ke asked.
"Humph!" Zhao Yu humphed. "If I had taken a hot bath earlier, I might have realized it earlier! Have you guys realized that ever since this case, we've been acting like spectators? Wherever there's a murder, we'll rush over to that place. But, when we turned around, we couldn't even find a single piece of evidence. So, we just followed the murderer blindly. Have you ever thought about why? "
"Do you mean … There's a mole?!" Ran Tao asked in shock.
"No! Maybe … It's even more powerful than the mole! " Zhao Yu smirked and said, "Now, I finally understand why the higher-ups sent us, the special investigation group! This case isn't as simple as an ordinary Hasty Murder Case! "
"Huh? Then … What's going on? "Zeng Ke asked.
"This is a setup!" Zhao Yu said. "My experience tells me that planning and taking action are two different things. Liu Yu is just a medical doctor, so it's impossible for him to handle such a dense and precise murder operation! So, I think that there must be a more powerful person who made use of Liu Yu's hatred to create the Hasty Murder Case! After making use of him, he killed him to keep his mouth shut! "
"What you mean is, Liu Yu was made use of by someone? Then, wouldn't the person be even more powerful? "Zeng Ke asked in surprise." But, I don't understand why they would do that. Is there any benefit to it? "
"You said it yourself, that the pharmaceutical factory has already been listed overseas!" Zhao Yu opened his eyes slightly and said, "As a large corporation with an annual production value of tens of billions, anything can be related to benefits! So, from today onwards, we have to aim our sights at solving the case at a higher level! "
"Then … That's impressive …" Ran Tao said worriedly. "Since they could do such an earth-shattering thing, it means that the group of people must be extremely powerful. So, can the few of us deal with them?"
"And …" Zeng Ke said worriedly, "I'm worried that … Since so many people have died, the Central Criminal Division will make a move. After such a big incident, they might send more people over!"
"Don't worry, I have already contacted Chen Zhuo. Tomorrow morning, I will write a detailed report for Division Chief Pan. As the case is so complicated, she should be able to understand us!" Zhao Yu explained. "But, next, we have to show our true abilities! If we can't find out the truth and give the higher-ups a satisfactory explanation, we won't have another chance to investigate the Headless Female Corpses Case! "
"Understood!" Zeng Ke saluted in the bathtub.
"Alright!" Ran Tao nodded solemnly. But, judging from his expression, he was obviously not confident.
"Ran Tao, from tomorrow onwards, you will find a suitable place to be our base!" Zhao Yu instructed. "We can't stay in the office at Jinping Police Station any longer! Even the hotel that we are staying at, we have to pay special attention to it. "
"Wh … Why? Are you worried that there might be a mole in the police station? "Ran Tao was shocked.
"Just in case!" Zhao Yu said. "If there is really a powerful criminal organization behind Liu Yu, we have to be cautious! Zeng Ke, once we have chosen the location, you go and set up your equipment. After the investigation, we will need a lot of information! "
"Okay … Okay …" Zeng Ke nodded and asked, "Then … Team Leader Zhao, what should we do now?"
