Chapter 1840 I Know the Dead
"The monitoring is broken...the monitoring is broken..." The person in charge of the scenic spot covered his head and reported to Zhao Yu and others in a panic, "Everything is fine, except that the monitoring is broken, it seems to be from the main control room That power cord was cut, and all the probes we have here are wired in series, so..."
"Mr. Ge!" Captain Zhang Ling asked this person angrily, "Where is the person on duty? Someone ran into your scenic spot to kill someone, so there must be no movement at all, right?"
"No... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." The person in charge said timidly, "We are a ghost town here, how can there be any night shift? Who dares to work the night shift here?
"Besides... what do we have here to steal?"
As he said that, the person in charge gestured helplessly to the main hall in front of him. Indeed, there was nothing else here except those clay statues of the underworld.
"I'm going... I'm so depressed..." Zhang Ling was gearing up anxiously, his brow was covered with sweat. Obviously, the sudden appearance of the second ghost king case made him feel great pressure.
"Captain Zhang, calm down, calm down..." Zhao Yu is used to this kind of scene, and immediately persuaded Zhang Ling, "The interval between the two cases is so short, and the murderer is thoughtful and well-prepared, there is no way we can avoid it." !"
"Detective Zhao," Zhang Ling said with a frustrated face, "I'm worried, if there are two, there are three, if you can't catch the murderer, the problem will be serious!
"Besides, it's still being photographed now, which is a big taboo!"
Zhao Yu nodded, how could he not know the consequences of this? However, it is useless to worry now. So far, they still don't know who the latest deceased is?
It is only through Zhang Peipei's preliminary judgment that he is a young man in his 30s, but he has not found any items that can prove his identity.
"The deceased obviously died of poisoning," Zhang Peipei said, "The preliminary judgment shows that he died last night, within ten hours.
"In other cases... an autopsy is required!"
"Hmm..." Zhao Yu nodded, indicating that Zhang Peipei could transfer the body back to the police station.
"Oh...it's not bad at all with the illustrations on Ghost King Records!" Ran Tao looked at the creepy corpse, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "At first, I was worried that a baby would die! Fortunately, that There's nothing in the swaddle..."
"Besides, he's a man..." Zhang Ling continued,
"Du's daughter, shouldn't it be a female ghost? Isn't it true that the murderer didn't design the murder according to the plot in the book?"
Listening to the discussion between the two, Zhao Yu walked around the scene, and then asked the commentator, "This... is the legendary 18th floor of hell, right?"
"Yes," the guide nodded, "These figures are all made of clay..."
"Oh..." Zhao Yu pondered for a long time, and then asked, "Then, is this room locked at night?"
"No, it's never been locked!" The person in charge of the scenic spot replied first, "There is no valuables in this house, even if a thief comes in, it's no wonder if you don't scare him!"
"Huh..." Zhao Yu exhaled heavily, thinking seriously in his heart, why did the murderer choose this place as a place to kill?
Is it the hope that the dead will go to hell and never be reborn?
The first one is the Guandi Temple, and the second... choose the 18th floor of hell?
Could it be...the so-called murder purpose of the ghost king case is really—vendetta! ?
Are the victims of the two cases related?
And between them, is it related to the Tao Yulan case 66 years ago?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu became more and more aware that this case was not done well, and behind the horrifying murder scene he carefully arranged, there might be a bigger problem hidden!
...
On the way back to the police station, it happened to be ten minutes in the afternoon.
Originally, Zhang Ling proposed to treat Zhao Yu and Ran Tao to a meal, but after watching such a horrific scene just now, how could everyone have any appetite? I had to go back to the police station first.
However, while the police car was still driving, Zhang Ling suddenly received a message from Chongyang City.
Unexpectedly, through the efforts of the Chongyang police, they actually found the information about the ghost king case in the archives.
However, what they found was not the original file, but a handwritten document after reconstruction. Moreover, the data was severely damaged, and the content was much more streamlined than the original file.
"Tao Yulan was only 24 years old when the case happened," Zhang Ling introduced the information received to Zhao Yu. "At that time, she was neither married nor had any children...
"However, it is recorded in the information that he has 9 brothers and sisters, but there is no detailed information...
"In addition, Tao Yulan did plead guilty, admitting that the five deceased were all killed by him...
"The identities of the five deceased have been lost. I only know that they were all military officers who were recruited and reformed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Because they had military ranks, they should all be placed in grassroots units after being recruited..."
"Oh..." Zhao Yu thought for a while and asked, "Then...does it mention in the documents why Tao Yulan died?"
"No..." Zhang Ling said, "Let's go back and study slowly based on the data, maybe we can find the answer.
"However, the Chongyang police told me that according to the information, because of Tao Yulan's sudden death at that time, the police handling the case could only guess that he had a grudge against those who died!
"Perhaps, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, those deceased had bullied Tao Yulan, or Tao Yulan's family, so Tao Yulan held a grudge and killed them..."
oh……
Zhao Yu fell into deep thought. If the police's speculation was correct and Tao Yulan was not wronged, but killed because of hatred, then... what about this case now?
Facts have proved that the murderer committed the crime carefully and did not leave any clues, which shows that he came prepared.
Could it be... is it really because of hatred?
beep beep beep beep...
At this moment, Zhang Ling's cell phone rang suddenly, and he quickly answered the call respectfully as soon as he saw the caller number.
"Hello? Director Zhao, I was just about to report to you..." Zhang Ling spoke quickly, obviously under great pressure, "That's right, this case is exactly the same as the one at Guandi Temple. We can already confirm that the murderer is based on the "Ghost King Record" kills...
"Oh... oh... what!?" Zhang Ling didn't finish his sentence, but got an unexpected message, "You said...you knew the deceased? This..."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yu and Ran Tao were taken aback for a moment, and quickly stared at Zhang Ling with wide eyes.
"What? Shen Hao's son!?" Zhang Ling became trembling as he spoke, "You mean the Shen Hao that Chuan Xing voted for, right? He... his son? How do you know?
"Oh... oh... oh..." Afterwards, Zhang Ling listened carefully to the leader's words, and after listening for a long time, he said, "Okay, I understand, I will cooperate with Detective Zhao to investigate thoroughly, don't worry, okay , ok... I understand, I understand... goodbye..."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ling's face became even more ugly, and he said to Zhao Yu extremely depressed: "Detective Zhao, this is a troublesome time!
"The deceased's name is Shen Wenbin, and he is now the executive director of Chuanxing Investment Group!"
