Cui Lizhu's eyes widened as she guessed, "Did Han Kuan have an accident in Guang 'an? And this accident happened when he was about to kill someone for the last time? Oh my God! Could there be … an eyewitness!? "
"It's possible …" Miao Ying nodded uncertainly. "But … The last victim was indeed dead. Even if there was an accident, it wouldn't cause him to return to Beiqian one day late, right?"
Ran Tao then asked, "He looked flustered. What could have happened to make him look flustered? His parents are still alive, so there shouldn't be anything serious at home, right? "
"Zhao Yu, why don't we go to Guang 'an?" Miao Ying asked hesitantly.
"It's useless!" Zhao Yu shook his head. "The crime scene in Guang 'an was an abandoned building that was being demolished. It's long gone, so we can't see anything there!"
Miao Ying then asked, "Should I call Wu Xiumin and ask Han Kuan himself?"
"Wait a minute … Don't worry!" Suddenly, Zhao Yu seemed to think of something. While trying to dissuade Miao Ying, he came to one of the whiteboards and carefully looked for something among the many clues.
The team members had long been accustomed to Zhao Yu's way of thinking, so they all held their breath and did not make a sound.
Zhao Yu pressed his hand on the whiteboard and thought carefully, completely immersing himself in the case.
After more than ten minutes, Zhao Yu tapped on a line of text on the whiteboard and said, "I seem to understand something! At that time … "He turned to the team members and said," At that time, I felt that there was a problem that I had not solved. Now it seems that I understand it! "
"Then …" Miao Ying asked anxiously, "What is the problem?"
"It's here!" Zhao Yu pointed to the line of text again and said, "At that time, we only wrote down the question of why the murderer in the Devil Case stopped killing people, but we ignored that there was another problem after that … But, you can't blame us for that, because when we wrote down this question, we didn't have enough information at all!"
"Boss …" Ran Tao scratched his head in confusion. "Can't you make it easier to understand?"
Miao Ying guessed, "You mean … The reason why Han Kuan stopped killing may have been because of this accident? So … What kind of accident could have caused him to stop? "
"Not only that …" Zhao Yu said earnestly. "Do you remember the devil suit? It seemed that Han Kuan had used the devil suit to frame Lang Xiangyang! But … we've never thought about why he did it. "
"That's not right! Why haven't you thought about it? " "Didn't you say that because the Devil Case caused a sensation a year later, Han Kuan was worried that the police would find out about him, so he came back to frame me?"
"Yeah! But there is one thing that we have overlooked! "Zhao Yu said seriously." Think about it carefully. Why would he be worried that the police would find out about him? If Han Kuan was really invulnerable, why would he come back to frame him? "
That one sentence stunned everyone, and the huge office instantly fell silent.
Zhao Yu then added, "This is a very risky move. As a criminal expert, Han Kuan should be very clear about this. But even so, he still did it. What does this mean? "
Cui Lizhu suddenly realized something. "This means that Han Kuan did make a serious mistake at that time, and he did leave some important evidence that could be used against him. He was really worried that the police would find out, so he took the risk of framing him …"
"Yes!" Miao Ying also understood what Zhao Yu meant. She then said, "I think that Han Kuan must have had an accident during the murder and left behind some decisive evidence … But … Even so …"
At this point, Miao Ying's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Zhao Yu then said in frustration, "But … Those pieces of evidence have a time limit. It was important at that time, but it doesn't mean that it's still important now! After 15 years, Han Kuan was convinced that the evidence had disappeared. That's why he was so calm and fearless! "
Ran Tao was depressed. "We've been talking about this for a long time, but it's all in vain! Anyway, there is no evidence, so what's the use of it? "
Miao Ying then said, "Whether it's useful or not, it's very likely that Han Kuan had an accident at that time. So, no matter what, we have to figure out what the accident was!"
"Yes!" Cui Lizhu agreed. "What if … there really is a witness?"
"That's impossible!" Ran Tao said. "The Devil Case was so sensational back then. If there were witnesses, why would they wait until now?"
"Don't worry. At least … We have a direction to go!" Zhao Yu said patiently.
Ran Tao looked at his watch anxiously and said, "Boss, you can't be anxious … There are only nine hours left before Han Kuan is released!"
"Fine!" Cui Lizhu retorted indifferently. "Just find the evidence and arrest them!"
"What? What if Han Kuan runs away?" Ran Tao was not convinced.
"If he runs away, it means that he is guilty. But, if he runs away …"
"But, that would ruin the feng shui …"
"D * mn! Do you policemen believe in feng shui?"
"…"
While listening to Ran Tao and Cui Lizhu argue with each other, Zhao Yu was calmer than ever. This was because he was still patiently waiting for the important moment to come.
He deeply believed in the system, so he knew that today's Gen and Kun hexagram would not be in vain. Moreover, the side adventure would certainly give him a big hint.
While waiting, Zhao Yu saw that someone had delivered breakfast, so he opened the lunch bag and began to eat. Then, he calmly asked Cui Lizhu to make him a cup of coffee.
As time passed, the Beiqian Task Force sent them several pieces of information. Wu Xiumin also called Zhao Yu to ask about the progress of the case and to report on the work in the Golden City.
Finally, the time for the side adventure was getting closer and closer. Just at the moment when it was time, the office phone suddenly rang!
"Hello?" Zhao Yu was the closest to the phone, so he rushed over to answer it.
"Hello, special investigator. This is Police Officer No. 24 of the reception center!" A sweet female voice came from the phone. "I just received feedback from a person in Jiangxing County. He said that he had important information about the Devil Case to report to the police. After I finished recording it, I felt that it was necessary to report it to you. "
Jiangxing County?
Zhao Yu had heard of this place. It was located far north of Beiqian. Not only was it not part of Beiqian, but it was also beyond the provincial boundary.
"Here's the thing!" The female police officer continued, "The man's name is Liu Yubao. After watching the news, he felt that something that happened to him 15 years ago was somewhat similar to the Devil Case …"
"What?" Thinking of today's side adventure, Zhao Yu felt a chill run down his spine.
"Um …" Hearing Zhao Yu's surprise, the female police officer panicked and said in a hurry, "Special investigator comrade … How about this … If you think this information is important, I will call him back now and you can ask him yourself!"
"Um … Okay!" Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then immediately hung up.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
Hearing Zhao Yu's abnormal voice, his team members also came over.
A few seconds later, the phone rang again. It was obvious that the female police officer had answered the phone.
"Hello? Is this okay now? Can you tell me now? " After answering the phone, a man's voice came from the phone with a heavy accent. Seeing that his team members were curious, Zhao Yu put the phone on speaker mode.
"Yes, you can. Tell me more about what you said just now in detail!" Zhao Yu prompted.
"Police officer, let's make this clear! I'm a good citizen, "Liu Yubao said." I'm not here for the reward. I just want to help the police solve the case! I can swear on my dignity that what I said is true! "
"Okay, okay … Hurry up and tell me!" Zhao Yu urged him.
"I've seen the news. Oh my God, Sisay my mother (local dialect)! I feel like on that night 15 years ago, I should have escaped with my life! " Liu Yubao said with fear. "That day, it was my brother-in-law's birthday, so I drank a few too many glasses and got drunk! When I opened my eyes the next day, I found myself lying in a strange corridor. My clothes were covered in dirt, and I had a big bump on my head! "
"I felt that it was quite strange at that time. Although I drank too much that night, I didn't have a memory loss! Even if I had a memory loss, I wouldn't have been unable to go home! Even if I couldn't go home, I couldn't have gone so far to a strange neighborhood! " Liu Yubao said. "Also, I slowly remembered that that night, I seemed to have been covered by someone, and then I was in a daze …"
"But … After all, I was fine, so I didn't think too much about it, so I just left! But, until last night … Your news really scared me! "Liu Yubao said in panic." It's so similar! Fifteen years ago, I was a bully in the school, and I often bullied people … It scared me to death! Now that I think about it, I might have been targeted by the devil that day. I survived! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly asked, "The neighborhood that you woke up in, what did it look like?"
"It was Taihe Neighborhood!" Liu Yubao answered without hesitation. "It wasn't even built yet! It was New Year's Eve, and there was no one guarding it … "
"Then …" Miao Ying could tell that something was amiss, so she interrupted impatiently, "Do you remember when you fainted?"
"December 25th!" Liu Yubao said. "It was my brother-in-law's birthday! I can't remember wrong! "
"December 25th?" Miao Ying was stunned, then asked, "At night?"
