On the same day, at a press conference organized by the Beiqian Police Station, Zhao Yu personally announced the progress of the Devil Case, including the possible identity of the murderer, how he found his target, what kind of target he was looking for, and how he pretended to be a devil to commit the crime.
Of course, the reason why Zhao Yu announced the details was to appeal to the local people to actively cooperate with the police. If anyone could provide the police with clues, the police would give them a high reward.
As one could imagine, once the news was released, it immediately caused a huge reaction in society like a heavy bomb! For a time, the media was restless, and the people were excited. Everyone was talking about the Devil Case!
Zhao Yu had set a precedent in the criminal investigation community. In the past, whenever the police held a press conference of such a scale, it was either because the case had been solved and they wanted to tell the public the truth, or because there was a new case that required the public's cooperation. However, it was the first time in the country that the police were investigating a cold case that had been silent for 15 years.
Of course, Zhao Yu was not acting on impulse. Before holding the press conference, he had not only thought about it carefully, but he had also made a detailed report to the Criminal Division and submitted an application in accordance with the procedures.
Although the leaders of the Criminal Division knew that the Devil Case was being handled in such a high-profile manner, they were still moved by Zhao Yu's words. They agreed that the process of investigating the truth was far more important than the final result! So, in the end, they approved Zhao Yu's request and gave him a high degree of support.
Of course, in addition to Zhao Yu's determination, the leaders also attached great importance to the clues he had obtained. They also believed that this was the best time to solve this super cold case! So, they had every reason and confidence to take a gamble with Zhao Yu!
Since joining the Special Investigation Group, this was the first time that Zhao Yu had made such a big move. So, after the press conference, he was very nervous. He didn't know if his move would work.
Fortunately, the Beiqian Police Station was very experienced. They knew that after the press conference was released, there would be overwhelming feedback, so they had mobilized the relevant police forces early in the morning and set up a special reception center to receive and deal with the public's feedback. Once they found any important information from the feedback, they would immediately report it to the Special Investigation Group.
Therefore, Zhao Yu and the others only needed to wait patiently in the office, as there was no need to do anything themselves.
The power of the media was very strong. Not only in Beiqian, but also in the whole country, the Devil Case was a well-known unsolved case. When Zhao Yu and the others turned on their TVs and mobile phones, news about the Devil Case dominated the headlines and had spread all over the country.
Finally, two to three hours after the news was released, the phones in the reception center started ringing. The receptionists patiently answered and took notes …
That night, five or six new clues were reported to the office of the Special Investigation Group by the receptionist. However, after verification, the information was either false or irrelevant …
But … some news was better than no news at all. Zhao Yu immediately perked up and worked hard with his team members for the night.
…
In the blink of an eye, the night passed and the sun rose. When the first ray of warm sunlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling window and shone on Zhao Yu's face, he woke up from his deep sleep from the previous night's exhaustion.
However, before he opened his eyes, Zhao Yu instinctively opened a hexagram. In the end, after opening the hexagram, he suddenly jumped up from his chair!
At the center of the System interface, there were two big words — "Gen Kun"!
Holy sh * t!
Zhao Yu took a deep breath. "Gen Kun" hexagram! Not only did the Gen hexagram appear, but it also brought out a Kun hexagram!
This … This … This …
This hexagram … Should it correspond to the Devil Case? Was it … because of his unremitting efforts over the past few days, he had risked his life to exchange for it?
Today was the last day of Han Kuan's release. At 6 p.m., Han Kuan would be released from the Golden City Detention Center on time.
Could it be …
Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of the side adventure. When he opened it, he saw that the side adventure was pointing to the office where he was now. The time of the side adventure was one hour later!
If that's the case …
Before Zhao Yu could get excited, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open. Ran Tao came into the office with two middle-aged men.
"Team Leader, Team Leader …" Ran Tao hurried over to Zhao Yu, then pointed at the two men and said, "Look … They are here!"
Zhao Yu looked up and saw that one of the men was Lang Xiangyang's younger brother, Lang Xiangqian. Zhao Yu had never seen the man behind Lang Xiangqian before.
"Hello, police officer!" Lang Xiangqian politely shook hands with Zhao Yu, then pointed to the strange man and said, "This is Gao Shiwei, an old employee of our company. After watching the news yesterday, he found my contact information and called me. After our conversation, we felt that it was necessary to tell you about some of the things that happened in the past. Maybe it would be useful! "
Zhao Yu quickly pointed to a chair and gestured for him to sit down. "Please sit down!"
After the three of them sat down, the man named Gao Shiwei hurriedly said, "Police officer, when I worked for Xiangqian, I used to be in the same group as Han Kuan, and I often went out with him. I heard that you suspected this person, so I came to report to you …"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded, then said politely, "Please go ahead …"
"Ah … How should I say this? Every time we went on a business trip, we lived in the same room. Among the many employees, I should be the one who had the most contact with him. But, Han Kuan didn't like to talk much, and he often wrote and drew in a small notebook … "
He then added, "This man was very boring, but he was really smart.
Once he was free, he would go to the Internet cafe. Sometimes, he would stay out all night … I got used to it. "
He then added, "Also … This man didn't seem to have any emotions. No matter what he did, he was always so calm and expressionless. It was as if he had nothing to do with anything."
Gao Shiwei thought for a moment, then said, "By the way, I think that when Han Kuan asked for Mr. Lang's resignation and left Beiqian, there was something strange about him …"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu had been listening carefully. When he heard this, he suddenly had a strong reaction, so he hurriedly asked, "What was strange about him?"
"Um … Here's the thing …" Gao Shiwei took out a small notebook and said, "Sorry, I don't have a good memory. I just remembered all of this last night.
Han Kuan left on December 26th. According to his original plan, he should have left on December 27th, because the company still had a lot of work to do on the 27th. But, he left one day earlier than that! "Zhao Yu then added," Well … Well …
He then added, "Most importantly, when he left, he looked very flustered! It was the first time that I had seen him so anxious. We all thought that something big had happened to his family! "
He then added, "At that time, Mr. Lang was also sick and very uncomfortable. He wanted Han Kuan to stay for one more day to help him finish the last batch of work. But, Han Kuan insisted on leaving. In the end, Mr. Lang had no choice but to ask the accountant to settle the bill for him!"
"Ah?" Hearing this, Zhao Yu vaguely realized something, so he asked, "Do you remember where Han Kuan went before he left?"
"I remember it clearly. It was Guang 'an!" Gao Shiwei said with certainty. "Han Kuan went alone. He left on the 23rd and didn't come back until the morning of the 26th! As far as I know, the work in Guang 'an shouldn't be so complicated. Otherwise, I would have gone with him! "
When Zhao Yu heard the word "Guang 'an," he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. After all, Guang' an was the place where the last case of the Devil Case had taken place! Since Han Kuan came back from Guang 'an before he left, he was obviously a major suspect!
"So …" Miao Ying also heard the importance of this information, so she hurriedly asked, "Did Han Kuan go to Guang 'an alone?"
Gao Shiwei nodded.
"What about Mr. Lang?" Miao Ying asked again.
"No …" Gao Shiwei replied with certainty, "It was the New Year, and the company was so busy. Mr. Lang hadn't gone out since the Lunar New Year! But, who would have thought that he would … Alas … "
"Oh … I see," Lang Xiangqian said. "I went to the provincial capital at that time, so I left all the company's matters to my brother!"
"Officer, that's all I want to say!" Gao Shiwei said. "At first, I didn't think much of it, but after reading the description of the murderer that you released yesterday, I felt that Han Kuan was really suspicious! You have to check it out … "
"Mr. Gao, thank you for the information you provided!" Zhao Yu suppressed his excitement and shook hands with Gao Shiwei. He then said, "But, I still have to trouble you to help us make a detailed written record …"
As Zhao Yu waved his hand, Zeng Ke immediately stepped forward and took Gao Shiwei and Lang Xiangqian away to make their statements.
As soon as they left, Miao Ying pointed to the information on the whiteboard and said to Zhao Yu, "Zhao Yu, something is wrong! The last Devil Case in Guang 'an happened on the day that Lang Xiangyang went to the clinic. That day was December 25th! "
She then added, "But, Han Kuan returned to Beiqian on December 26th and submitted his resignation to Lang Xiangyang!" Zhao Yu also found the problem. "The Devil Case happened at about three o 'clock in the morning, and Guang' an is only 40 kilometers away from Beiqian. So, it stands to reason that Han Kuan should have returned to Beiqian on the same day after he killed the people. What did he do? "
