Chapter 1516: Video Mystery Case
"God, we won the bid again!?" Looking at the 7 video thumbnails on the big screen, Cui Lizhu covered her face and said, "Actually, before I came to Guangdong, I had a bad premonition, and now... ...It really came true!"
"Team leader," Zeng said, clicking on the video with the mouse, "Miao Xiaowen's video is just the last one. Before this, the same publisher has released 6 identical videos, and the victims in the videos are all different. The Missing Section has taken the impact data to the database for comparison!"
"No, no, no, please don't..." Cui Lizhu rubbed her hands nervously, "I hope this is all a prank, okay? It's a spoof by the filmmakers..."
Hearing Cui Lizhu's prayer, the office was suddenly quiet for a moment, everyone was thinking about their own affairs, only Ran Tao said:
"It's unlikely to be a spoof, at least Miao Xiaowen is indeed a missing person..."
"Zeng Ke," Zhao Yu asked, pointing at the video, "How long is each video playing?"
"They are all about 20 minutes long, and there are obvious signs of editing in the video," Zeng Ke said, "That is to say, the real crime process is longer than the playback time in the film."
"Editing..." Before that, Zhao Yu had seen these killing videos, and saw the obvious traces of editing, and immediately said to himself, "Why did you edit it?"
"Well... I think..." Wu Xiumin guessed, "Is it true that the publisher intentionally made the video look like a film? He doesn't want anyone to see that these are actually real murder images?"
"That sentence makes sense..." Zeng Ke nodded and said, "I took a look at the illegal forum, and there are many videos similar to gimmicks, but most of them are movie clips, or short videos shot with inferior methods. You can tell it's fake at a glance."
"I don't think so," Miao Ying retorted. "The victims in the video are all missing persons in the real world. Since he decided to upload the video, he must be ready to be discovered!"
Um……
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"I think the reason why the poster edited..." Zeng Ke guessed again, "Maybe it is because the website thinks the video is too real and bloody, so it will block his post?"
Um……
Everyone nodded again, also agreeing with Zeng Ke's guess.
"I remember..." Miao Ying pointed to the video and asked again, "Do you need to pay for the video?"
"right,
Zeng Ke nodded, "Pay or recharge membership." In order to obtain the complete video, the police deliberately charged members.
"Also," Zeng Ke transferred a set of data from his computer to the big screen, and introduced, "Take the video of Miao Xiaowen's murder as an example. Within 48 hours of its release, this video has received more than 50,000 hits." The number of people who pay to watch is about 6,000.
"It costs about 3.2 yuan to watch once. If the website and the individual are divided in half, then the publisher's profit is close to 10,000 yuan!"
"But..." Cui Lizhu reacted super fast, "If you add up all the 7 videos, it will be more than this money, and the longer the video is released, the more income you will get!
"Grandma is a bitch!" The little girl scolded angrily, "This murderer is too much! He kills people, but he also pays for his death! Why is he raised by human beings? What a beast!"
"Tsk tsk, don't swear, pay attention to your quality!" Zhao Yu warned Cui Lizhu, then slapped the table seriously and shouted, "Grandma is a bear, if I don't catch this bastard grandson, I don't deserve to be a special detective. What a cold case scavenger!"
"Speaking of fees..." However, Miao Ying calmly noticed a detail, and immediately asked Zeng Ke, "Since there is a fee, there should be an account. Since there is an account, are you afraid that you won't be able to find someone?"
"That's right," Zeng Ke explained, "After I hacked into their website, I found that their funding system operates independently and cannot be traced.
"Moreover, their security measures are very strong. All publisher information is encrypted with advanced algorithms. If you want to find out the publisher's account information, there is only one way at present, and that is to enter the server of their fund system!"
"Didn't you say it's overseas?" Ran Tao scratched his head, "The server may be hidden in any country! Even if we find it, we don't have permission, right?"
"Xiao Zeng, Xiao Zeng," Cui Lizhu said eagerly, "Can you find the server address of the website? As long as you know where it is, I will do the rest. I have stolen server hard drives before!"
"..."
Everyone was speechless for 5 seconds, Zeng Ke replied: "I should be able to find it, it just takes a little time!"
"Can you hurry up?" Cui Lizhu was anxious, "It's too late, it's useless even if you find out the account, the murderer has already taken the money and ran away!"
"Of course I know," Zeng Ke bowed, "We've already tried our best. This time, the people who helped us were all the best in the country..."
Unexpectedly, before Zeng Ke finished speaking, someone knocked on the office door.
After getting permission, I saw a local police officer rushing in from the door.
As soon as he saw the panicked look of the policeman and his uncertain eyes, Zhao Yu already felt that something was wrong.
And in the next second, Zhao Yu's worries came true.
The police officer told everyone that the Missing Section has compared the information of 3 victims from the 6 newly-appeared videos. These 3 people are all missing persons, and they have been missing for more than 16 years...
...
An hour later, he was still in the temporary office of the Special Investigation Team, but the atmosphere was more oppressive than before.
Because, they have already got the exact news. Through the identification of the missing Kobe, the 7 female victims in the 7 videos are all real people, and they all belonged to the missing person a long time ago!
In the video, like Miao Xiaowen, they were all brutally killed after undergoing inhuman torture by the murderer!
The whole process made the viewers look sideways, the listeners were indignant, and the hearers shed tears. It was really outrageous to the extreme!
What is even more staggering is that according to the data, these seven victims were distributed all over the country, covering five provinces and cities. The scope of their crimes is so wide that it is very rare!
In Zhao Yu's words, if the seven victims were indeed dead, then in terms of the nature of this case, it would not be included in the top five unsolved cases at all, and it would definitely be a national first-level major case!
To a certain extent, it has even surpassed the impact of the headless female corpse case and the demon case.
The nature of the case is extremely bad, and the murderer's cruelty and arrogance have reached an unprecedented height.
After the report was reported, the leaders of the Criminal Department attached great importance to it and asked Zhao Yu's special dispatch team to take full responsibility, use all resources to solve the case as soon as possible, and bring the murderer to justice!
For a while, the whiteboards in the office of the special investigation team increased from the previous two to eight, and when the eight were filled, they increased to ten, twelve...
