By the time he finished questioning Ma Wenliang, it was already past midnight. Zhao Yu's adventure for the day had also ended.
This time, Zhao Yu was shocked by the Dui Gen hexagram, as he had never expected the truth to be like this. But, even so, he still received a high completion rate of 136% and three Invisible Appraisers as a reward.
As it was already past midnight, and it was the crucial moment to solve the case, Zhao Yu opened another hexagram without hesitation.
In the end, the hexagram that he got this time was even more bizarre. It was a rare Kan and Li hexagram. Kan represented a woman, while Li represented a friend. In Zhao Yu's memory, it was the first time that he had gotten these two hexagrams at the same time.
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu pondered carefully. Since there was no Gen hexagram or Kun hexagram, it seemed that the situation would stabilize in the coming day.
Especially since there was no Gen hexagram, does this mean that the Headless Female Corpses Case can be closed? Is Tao Xiang the psychopathic murderer? Did he kill those women because he wanted to fight for his goddess, Du Manting?
Just now, when the interrogation was about to end, Ma Wenliang seemed to have caught on to something, so he added, saying that he had been following Cui Fangyu for a long time, and that he could use his life to guarantee that Cui Fangyu only had one mistress, Bai Lili. He definitely hadn't fooled around with other women!
But, his words obviously didn't carry much weight. Judging from the current situation, the six victims of the Headless Female Corpses Case weren't necessarily Cui Fangyu's mistresses. They might have offended Du Manting for some other reason, which led to Tao Xiang taking revenge on them!
Tao Xiang's love for Du Manting had obviously sunk into a state that ordinary people couldn't understand!
Then, as long as the police could find the connection between the victims and Du Manting, they would be able to close the case!
A long time ago, Zhao Yu had imagined what the truth of the Headless Female Corpses Case would be like. But, now that the truth had finally surfaced, it was completely different from what he had imagined.
In the following period of time, Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu sat side by side on a bench in the Bai Ling Key Case Investigation Unit's office, taking a short break.
Cui Lizhu leaned on Zhao Yu's shoulder. Although she was resting, her eyes were still staring blankly ahead.
Although Zhao Yu closed his eyes to rest, his mind was in a mess. He was still recalling what had happened after the Hasty Murder Case.
He had seldom been in a situation like this, where the cases not only followed one another, but intertwined and intertwined with each other. It gave him the feeling that after investigating a case for so long, not only did the case not end, but the more it was investigated, the messier it became!
It was precisely because of this illusion that Zhao Yu felt physically and mentally exhausted. It was as if his nerves had been stretched taut for so many days that they were about to break!
What was even more interesting was that Tao Xiang and Cui Lizhu, the father and daughter, were involved in all three cases, which was really incredible.
Now, although the Headless Female Corpses Case was getting closer to the truth, Zhao Yu knew that, due to Tao Xiang's mental state, it would be very difficult to collect evidence!
Although Tao Xiang was most likely the real murderer of the Headless Female Corpses Case, it was obviously not easy to convict him. Moreover, due to his mental state, even if he was convicted, it would be difficult for him to get the trial he deserved.
Such an outcome was obviously not what the victims' families wanted to see.
Besides collecting evidence to convict Tao Xiang, there was another thing that Zhao Yu couldn't figure out. Where did the Tamil Star go?
Although the Headless Female Corpses Case had made significant progress, the special investigation group still had a deadline to find the gemstone!
If they couldn't find the gemstone, the Headless Female Corpses Case wouldn't be closed. In the end, Zhao Yu would still be in an awkward situation.
Tsk tsk …
What should I do? How can I find the gemstone? How can I convict Tao Xiang?
Just as Zhao Yu was thinking hard, his team arrived. Zeng Ke, Ran Tao, and Wu Xiumin finally arrived at the Bai Ling Police Station with some equipment and information. They then met up with Zhao Yu.
Although they hadn't known each other for a long time, the three of them were on the same side. After meeting them, Zhao Yu suddenly felt more confident.
After meeting them, Zhao Yu naturally had to explain everything to them. Zhao Yu told them the truth. Although he had found a clue about the graveyard, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to find anything. Hence, he didn't tell them in advance.
His team members understood Zhao Yu's thoughts. As a man, he wanted to save face, so it was reasonable for him to do so. However, the three team members were really shocked by the six human heads! No one would have expected that Tao Xiang's treasure chest would contain human heads! Moreover, these human heads belonged to the victims of the Headless Female Corpses Case!
When Zhao Yu told them about Ma Wenliang's testimony and his own analysis, everyone suddenly understood. They also agreed with Zhao Yu's speculation that Tao Xiang was the real murderer!
Since everyone was present, the special investigation group's work had to be carried out without delay. Hence, everyone found an office at the Bai Ling Police Station and started setting up their own equipment.
Currently, their first task was to find the relationship between the six victims and Du Manting. They wanted to see if there was any connection between them.
In addition, they also had to look for Tao Xiang's past to see if they could find any new evidence.
At four o 'clock in the morning, news came from the forensics department at the Bai Ling Police Station. Through DNA comparison, it was confirmed that the six heads belonged to the six victims of the Headless Female Corpses Case.
However, something that puzzled the forensic doctors happened. The forensic doctors found that the six heads were highly decomposed, almost turning into skeletons. But, after the examination, they found a large amount of preservative on the skulls. Moreover, the water in the box also contained a high concentration of preservative fluid!
Logically speaking, the corpses of the Headless Female Corpses Case had also been embalmed by the murderer. Therefore, it should be reasonable for the skull to have preservative on it!
However, what was strange was that the degree of decomposition of the six skulls was exactly the same! This was something that was hard to understand!
This was because the Headless Female Corpses Case had been committed by the murderer over a span of five years! Within five years, the murderer had killed six people! Logically speaking, the degree of decomposition of the skulls would definitely be different, so why would such a situation occur?
The experienced forensic doctors speculated that there was only one possibility that could cause the skulls to have the same degree of decomposition.
That is, after the murderer killed the victims, he embalmed the skulls, then soaked them in preservative fluid.
Then, when the six skulls were gathered, he poured them all out of the container into the metal box. As the skulls were exposed to the air, over time, the skulls appeared to be in such a rotten state!
Oh my god!
When Zhao Yu heard the news, the first scene that popped up in his mind was the scene where he had found the victim's arm in Li Dan's house!
The image of his pale arm soaked in the liquid in the jar lingered in his mind for a long time. But … It was just a human's arm. If it was a head …
