It was late at night. Although they had slept in the spa center in the afternoon, it obviously couldn't relieve their fatigue. Cui Lizhu and the other team members had all fallen asleep on the office table. Ran Tao was even snoring.
At that moment, only Zhao Yu was still scribbling and drawing on the whiteboard.
Just like before, the new clues that they had obtained the previous night seemed to be very exciting. However, when they thought about it carefully, they were all stuck in a dead end.
Now, even though they knew that the gemstone was stolen by Tao Xiang, that Tao Xiang was cooperating with the Indian, and that Tao Xiang had a secret accomplice, the whereabouts of the Tamil Star were still a mystery.
Zhao Yu knew that, according to his usual way of solving cases, he had two choices. One was to investigate AK!
First, he could find out that he had hired Tao Xiang to steal his gemstone and kill him. Then, the Gemstone Case would be solved!
Second, he had to investigate Tao Xiang's accomplice. He had to find out who the person behind the scenes was. This person was a major suspect, not only because of the gemstone's whereabouts, but also because he might be related to the Headless Female Corpses Case!
However, the difficulty was obvious! AK was far away in a foreign country, and he was an internationally renowned tycoon. So, it was obviously not practical to investigate him.
As for Tao Xiang's accomplice, it was even more difficult to find him. Even Cui Lizhu didn't know his identity, which showed that he was very careful. So, how could he be found so easily?
If neither of the two options worked, what else could he think of?
At that moment, Zhao Yu thought of Leader Wu Fangfang of the task force. Zhao Yu thought that, since he knew how to look for Tao Xiang's image in the video, how could Leader Wu Fangfang of the task force not know about it?
Perhaps, they had already found out that Tao Xiang might be cooperating with the Indian! Zhao Yu wondered if Wu Fangfang had any other way to further investigate the case.
This woman was really stubborn. Her superiors had clearly given her the order to cooperate with him, but she still stubbornly insisted on doing things her own way!
If the two teams were to share their resources and discuss the case together, they might be able to come up with a new way!
At that moment, Zhao Yu connected Tao Xiang's name, the Indian man's name, and the mysterious accomplice's name on the whiteboard. He also wrote two small words in the middle, "Injured!"
It turned out that Zhao Yu felt that if the agent Lu Gang was really killed by AK, then it meant that AK was cruel and merciless!
Then … what happened back then, could it be like this?
Tao Xiang stole the gemstone according to the agreement, but when he was trading with the Indians, the Indians wanted to kill him to prevent future trouble. So, they killed Tao Xiang and his accomplices.
Could the blow to Tao Xiang's head have come from this attack?
Although they were seriously injured, Tao Xiang and his accomplices managed to escape. However, when his accomplice saw that Tao Xiang was unconscious, he grabbed the gemstone and ran away.
After he woke up, Tao Xiang's external injuries were already serious. In addition, his partner had robbed him of the gemstone, which caused him to suffer a mental breakdown.
But …
Cui Lizhu had said that Tao Xiang would be gone for more than 30 days. Why did it take so much time? Could it be that … after Tao Xiang woke up, he wanted to find the gemstone, so he went around looking for his accomplices? In the end, he couldn't find it, so he could only give up?
Sigh!
Zhao Yu shook his head. If that was the case, it would be even more difficult to deal with! If Tao Xiang didn't know where his accomplices had gone, then it would be even more impossible for him to find them!
It seemed that it would be very difficult to find the gemstone!
Sigh!
After another long sigh, Zhao Yu suddenly thought of a lyric by the superstar Zhang Zichen. The name of the song was the famous song, "If It's You":
If it's you, I'm willing to go to the ends of the earth to search for you …
If it's you, I'm willing to wait until the end of time …
If it's you, I'm sure that a glance at you is the meaning of my life …
…
This song was often sung on the streets. Even though Zhao Yu hadn't deliberately learned it, he could still hum a few lines along with it. At that moment, the more he hummed, the more he felt that it was interesting.
So, he walked over to his desk and took out the CD that Zhang Zichen had given him. He then plugged it into the DVD player and played it.
The first song on the CD was "If It's You". Zhao Yu was afraid that he would wake up his team members, so he turned the volume down to the lowest possible level.
Cui Lizhu, who was closer to the DVD player, was still woken up. However, Cui Lizhu didn't complain about Zhao Yu. Instead, she hummed along with him.
"Passing through the youthful eyebrows, unguarded with joy, I love it when you sing in my ears …"
Cui Lizhu then raised her head and stared at Zhao Yu with her eyes wide open. She said, "Team Leader, you're in such a good mood. Why did you start singing while investigating the case? I don't understand. This song is obviously about simple happiness. What does it have to do with the case? "
"No!" Zhao Yu smiled. "The reason why this song is so fascinating is because it expresses the word 'persistence.' Whether it's about love or life …"
"It's artistic conception! I didn't expect a police officer to be so perceptive! "Cui Lizhu sighed." I really didn't know that you liked Zhang Zichen's song … "
As she spoke, Cui Lizhu stretched her body and held the CD box in her hands.
"Yo? A commemorative edition with lossless sound quality? " Cui Lizhu was stunned. She then said in surprise, "This … I don't think you can buy this in a normal CD store! I don't see it online either! "
"Hey? You're an expert! You know what's good for you! " Zhao Yu was suddenly interested in showing off, so he said, "Let me tell you, this was a gift from Zhang Zichen!"
"What?" Cui Lizhu laughed and pointed at Zhao Yu with her finger. She then said, "You're bragging! Zhang Zichen gave it to you? How dare you say that you've returned it! "
"Hey? Why would I lie to you? "Zhao Yu said proudly." This was really a gift from Zhang Zichen. If you don't believe me, take a look … "
Then, he switched on his phone and showed Cui Lizhu a photo of him and Zhang Zichen.
"It can't be! You photoshopped it, right? Hehehe … "Cui Lizhu didn't believe him at all." I didn't expect you to be Zhang Zichen's hardcore fan. You even photoshopped the photo! "
"Go away, Zhang Zichen is in Bai Ling!" Zhao Yu explained. "Take a good look. Where are the traces of photoshopping? I did her a favor, so she gave me the album to thank me! It was just yesterday! "
"Hehehe … Brag … Keep bragging …" Although Cui Lizhu didn't believe him, she still looked at the photo carefully. After a few seconds, her expression gradually became serious. She stroked Zhao Yu's phone and said, "You don't say, this photo is really photoshopped … I can't tell! D * mn … You didn't lie? "
"When did I lie?" Zhao Yu thought to himself. Fortunately, he had taken a photo. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to show off.
"No way! Yesterday … Oh my God! " Cui Lizhu said in surprise. "Team Leader, how obsessed are you with her? That's why you ignored the case and went to chase after this superstar!"
"D * mn you! I told you that I just happened to meet her when I was investigating the case! Why would I be obsessed with her? "Zhao Yu didn't expect that he would make things worse.
"Hey? Wait a minute … "Cui Lizhu suddenly noticed something in the photo and asked," Team Leader, no … That's not right … You … Where did you take this photo? Who are these people in the photo? "
"At a Japanese restaurant. They are all Zhang Zichen's old classmates!" Zhao Yu replied with a smile. "Why? Is there anyone you know? "
