On the big screen in front of Zhao Yu, the Tamil Star that had been stolen six years ago had been enlarged to a certain extent. From Zhao Yu's angle, the gemstone was really exquisite, and it gave him a deep sense of awe!
The blue gemstone, which weighed 67 carats, was perfectly oval in shape, and was inlaid on a shiny platinum necklace. Although it was a sapphire, there was a glimmer of green light amidst the enchanting blue color, which made the entire gemstone look mysterious.
It was said that the gemstone was once inlaid on the scepter of the Indian King. Then, after many wars and losses, it finally fell into the hands of an Indian collector!
Six years ago, at an exhibition in the capital, the gemstone was invited to be exhibited. But, unexpectedly, it was stolen in less than two days!
It was said that the exhibition used the most advanced security measures, so it was supposed to be foolproof. But, in the end, it was still stolen!
This incident caused quite a stir, as such an important gemstone had been lost at the exhibition. It was a huge blow to the reputation of the organizer!
Hence, the Central Criminal Division sent their best criminal police officers to investigate the matter, but they never expected that the investigation would take six years! In those six years, the mysterious gemstone had never been seen again, and its whereabouts had been unknown ever since.
At that time, there was a rumor among the people that it was the work of the king of thieves, Tao Xiang. But, for a long time, the king of thieves, Tao Xiang, was just a name in the police investigation records. No one knew his identity, nor did anyone know where he was.
"Me, Wu Fangfang, Chen Zhuo, Cui Lizhu, Jinping Police Station, Central Criminal Division …" As he looked at the diamond, Zhao Yu wrote down a string of names on the whiteboard. It turned out that he was trying to figure out who had set him up and leaked the news about Tao Xiang.
But, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.
First of all, he was confident that there wouldn't be any problems with the special investigation group that he was leading. Through his short contact with them, he recognized the abilities of Wu Xiumin, Zeng Ke, and Ran Tao. If they were to leak the news, it wouldn't benefit them at all!
Secondly, he felt that it was even more impossible for Wu Fangfang to leak the news, as she was the main person in charge of the gem case. If the news were to leak, it wouldn't be good for her career!
Chen Zhuo was the liaison officer, but Chen Zhuo was very professional. When reporting the case, he wasn't even present, so it couldn't be him.
Moreover, it was unlikely that it was done by the Jinping police. If it was done by an ordinary police officer, it was impossible for a hacker to be involved. If it was the higher-ups of the Jinping police force, Ye Liang and the others wouldn't have the guts to do so.
Moreover, Cui Lizhu wouldn't do such a thing. Tao Xiang was her adoptive father. Selling the information would only bring disaster to Tao Xiang. Moreover, Cui Lizhu was still in custody, so she had no chance at all.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Zhao Yu felt that there was only one possibility. The leak was likely to have come from the Central Criminal Division, and it could even have come from one of the higher-ups!
There were four main reasons why he thought so.
First, he had reported Tao Xiang's case to the Central Criminal Division. There were many leaders in the Central Criminal Division. If one of them wanted to know the situation, it should not be difficult.
Secondly, it seemed that only the senior leaders of the Criminal Division were able to use advanced means like hacking.
Thirdly, in terms of time, the probability of something going wrong with the Central Criminal Division was also higher. Because Zhao Yu had reported to the Central Criminal Division the night before, the person who leaked the information had ample time to carry out the plan.
Fourthly, Zhao Yu had the Invisible Detector with him. If anyone wanted to eavesdrop on him, he would be able to see through it immediately. Since it wasn't one of Zhao Yu's people, the probability of it coming to the Central Criminal Division was obviously higher!
Combining the above points, Zhao Yu came to a conclusion that made his hair stand on end. He didn't know if it was aimed at him or Wu Fangfang, but among the higher-ups of the Central Criminal Division, there must be someone who wanted to kill one of them.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu almost instinctively thought of Section Chief Yang.
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu pondered seriously. Could it be that Section Chief Yang found out that I was the one who poisoned him with the stink bomb in the toilet? Is he trying to take the opportunity to take revenge?
Mm … It seems possible, right? Although it was impossible for him to get any evidence regarding the stink bomb … But, when he was poisoned, he did appear in the corridor of the Central Criminal Division's building.
So, did he realize something and think that I was related to him being poisoned? Because he couldn't find any evidence, he resorted to such a dirty trick. He leaked the information to frame me?
Holy sh * t …
If that's the case, then …
No, that's not right … Zhao Yu thought about it carefully and felt that he couldn't come to such an arbitrary conclusion. Although Section Chief Yang might have framed him, it didn't seem worthwhile to use a hacker to control the media, right?
Everyone knew that leaking information about Tao Xiang was equivalent to leaking state secrets, which would damage the country's image. Once it was found out, it would be a heavy sentence! He was just a section chief, so he wouldn't do such a thing just for personal grudges, right?
So … What if it's not aimed at me? Is it because someone is targeting Wu Fangfang? Wu Fangfang has such a foul mouth. Did she offend some big shot?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't continue. Although the smell of a conspiracy was getting stronger, he couldn't come to a conclusion due to the lack of evidence.
At that moment, Zeng Ke walked into the office and said to Zhao Yu, "Team Leader, I have sent people to check the computers of those media outlets. There is no trace! That hacker is definitely not an ordinary expert! So, I am afraid that it is impossible to find evidence from here! "
Zhao Yu was mentally prepared for Zeng Ke's words. Since the other party had already made a move, they must have been well prepared. There was no way that they would leave any evidence behind.
"What should we do now?" Zeng Ke asked helplessly. "I heard that the owner of the gemstone has already found out about it and is trying to find out more about it through diplomatic means! From what I see, this is not going to be easy to deal with! "
"Cough! What's so difficult about it? " Ran Tao rolled his eyes and said indifferently, "The handover documents have already been signed. What does it have to do with us? I say, let's not waste any more time here in Jinping. Let's pack up and go back to the border of Jinping! The headless female corpse is still waiting for us! "
"Oh my god, are you retarded?" Wu Xiumin took the opportunity to attack Ran Tao. "Go? Go where? Can't you see that if we don't solve the leak, our careers as special investigators will be over? "
"Really? Is it that serious? Isn't it just a gemstone? "Ran Tao didn't think much of it." The insurance has been given to him, right? Why would we be afraid that he would cause trouble? "
"No, no!" Wu Xiumin said decisively. "Regarding the insurance for the cultural relic exhibition, our country started late. Plus, the exhibition was jointly organized by the government and the museum. It wasn't a profit-making event, so there was no insurance! Otherwise, the owner wouldn't have sought diplomatic help! Think about it. As the owner of the gemstone, this time, it will definitely be worse than the last time! "
"D * mn, if we say that, will the higher-ups punish us?" Ran Tao finally understood. "Sh * t, sh * t. No wonder I saw Chen Zhuo acting like his father had died! Won't all of us be in trouble? "
"Mm!" Zhao Yu nodded slightly and said earnestly, "Now that things have come to this, there is only one way!"
"Oh?" Hearing that there was a way, everyone raised their heads and looked at Zhao Yu curiously.
But, before Zhao Yu could give an answer, the liaison officer, Chen Zhuo, rushed into the office like a rocket.
