Chapter 1879: Unlucky Legend
"Boss, what on earth are you thinking of?" Cui Lizhu hopped and blamed, "Are you going to be like Zhang San crazy and Su Qier? No. 17 is a school, what happened to the school?"
"No...it's not..." Zhao Yu recalled, "Zhang San is crazy, Su Qier? Are you saying I'm pretending to be crazy? I'm..."
While speaking, Zhao Yu turned his gaze to the big screen in the office, and then asked Wu Xiumin: "Sister Wu, hurry up, you have been busy with the public media these days, tell me now, the case of the ghost king is here. What's going on with the public?"
"Hmm..." Wu Xiumin was at a loss, but still patiently answered Zhao Yu's question, "I have already reported to you, after all, there was a large-scale post last time, and the ghost king case is special in western Sichuan. Because of the historical background, the public's reaction to the ghost king's case is very strong now, and it has already caused a sensation!
"Right now, although we have reached an agreement with the media, those are official media and mainstream media, and we simply cannot suppress other media's reports and speculations about the Ghost King case...
"I have to say that the current situation is very difficult, and the pressure from all aspects is very high. Even our criminal department is already evaluating...
"To be honest, if it wasn't for our team leader's reputation, and if it wasn't for Director Jiao's mediation," Wu Xiumin said frankly, "From the day we found out about Qi Hao's death, we should have started closing the case!"
"Indeed..." Zeng Ke whispered, "This case is not like the old unsolved cases we solved before, if we can't give an explanation to the public, I'm afraid it will only intensify!
"As the so-called saliva star drowns people, the case is not a big deal at first, but gossip and propaganda through those bad channels will cause even greater panic..."
"Hmph!" Cui Lizhu glared at Zeng Ke, "The analysis makes sense, why don't you go to work in the public media department?"
"I..." Zeng Ke covered his face, "I'm just talking about the facts!"
"Okay, that's not what I'm talking about," Zhao Yu said to Wu Xiumin again, "What I want to ask is, what happened to the units related to the crime scene after the Ghost King case happened?"
"Oh?" Wu Xiumin was taken aback, and everyone was also stunned.
"Relevant units?" Wu Xiumin understood and asked, "Is it related to the crime scene?"
"Yes," Zhao Yu asked, "For example, where is the Guandi Temple? Isn't it being demolished there? Now there is a horrible ghost king case in the Guandi Temple, isn't it?
Are the residents' desire for demolition more urgent? Who wouldn't want to live in a haunted neighborhood? "
"Oh?" Wu Xiumin frowned, "This...don't know?"
"Little Cui..." Zhao Yu snapped his fingers at Cui Lizhu, "Hurry up and contact Captain Zhang Ling and ask him to send someone to the Guandi Temple to inquire about the news!"
"Oh..." Cui Lizhu quickly took the order and left.
"Wow," Ran Tao spread his hands and said to Zhao Yu, "Boss, aren't you overthinking? Don't tell me, do you think that someone wanted to speed up the demolition process to bring up the ghost king case?"
"No!" Zhao Yu replied firmly, and then continued to ask Wu Xiumin, "Then what about the ghost town? After experiencing the ghost king case, what is the current situation in the ghost town?"
"The ghost town is still closed," Wu Xiumin replied, "The ghost town has also lodged a complaint with our police. The long holiday is coming, and they hope to resume business as soon as possible!"
"It's still open?" Ran Tao smacked his lips and sighed, "It's still open after everyone is dead? Now, it has really become a veritable ghost town. I wonder how many people will dare to visit there in the future?"
"Maybe..." Zeng Ke raised an objection, "People are all curious, maybe, the ghost king case is such a riot, but it will set the ghost town on fire!"
"Zeng Ke!" Zhao Yu suddenly shouted, and said to Zeng Ke, "Go and investigate the details of the ghost town immediately, I need their financial statements, assets, business and shares in recent years, and you Find a professional to give them an assessment to see what kind of impact the Ghost King case will have on them?"
"Oh... yes, yes..." Although he still had doubts, Zeng Ke didn't dare to disobey his orders, and hurried to his desk to make a phone call.
"Sister Wu, let's continue..." Zhao Yu asked Wu Xiumin again, "What about No. 17 High School? After the ghost king case happened in Lanyang Academy, how will it affect No. 17 High School?"
"Classes are still being suspended, but... the suspension is not mandatory, because after all, Lanyang Academy and the teaching building are not together, and it is only because of the students and parents that they are forced to attend classes!
"As for the impact..." Wu Xiumin thought for a while and said, "Based on the special historical background of the ghost king case on people in western Sichuan, I think the impact of the school must be great!
"No. 17 Middle School is not a key school in the first place, and they still want to use the renovated community to attract students. In this way, their future enrollment will definitely be affected..."
"Um……"
Zhao Yu waved to Ran Tao, and Ran Tao immediately understood, nodded quickly and said, "Okay, leave the 17th middle school to me! I will definitely check it out for you!"
After finishing speaking, Ran Tao also ran to his desk to make a phone call.
But this time, Wu Xiumin didn't wait for Zhao Yu to ask questions, and said first: "Among the five cases, Chuantai Tea House has undoubtedly the greatest influence!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu's eyes lit up and he listened carefully.
"The biggest impact is not the Chuantai Tea House itself, but the Senna Left Bank Community where Chuantai Tea House is located!" Wu Xiumin reported, "The Sena Left Bank Community is under construction and is expected to be handed over in the next year. Now it is for sale. During the prime time, 40% of the pre-sales have already been made, but once the case of the ghost king comes out... tsk tsk..."
"Oh?" Zhao Yu said, "It's not just that housing prices will drop, right?"
"Of course not," Wu Xiumin said, "I heard that after the Ghost King case, the homeowners who had already paid for the house demanded a refund one after another!
"This time, the developer has lost money!
"Although it has been 66 years since the Tao Yulan case, it has already become a deep-rooted legend in the lives of people in western Sichuan, and no one wants to be affected by it!
"Team leader," Wu Xiumin raised her head and said, "Let me investigate about the left bank of Senna!
"Now, I can kind of understand what you mean," she cast an affirmative look at Zhao Yu, "I don't know if you heard about it?
"Even the community where Qi Hao's family is located is in the government's demolition plan!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu was greatly surprised, it was indeed the first time he had heard of it.
"It's called the Liushu Tomb," Wu Xiumin explained. "It is said that it has been demolished many times, just like the Guandi Temple, but none of them succeeded! So, this time, the ghost king case may bring about a turning point for the demolition..."
"Well, I'm not sure whether it has anything to do with the demolition or not," Zhao Yu said, "However, my intuition tells me that these five killing locations may be the real key to the Ghost King case!
"Think about it...why is the murderer so persistent that he wants to publish the murder photos of the Ghost King case? He also added inflammatory descriptions to the photos?
"Also, why didn't the murderer leave any documentary evidence?
"I think," Zhao Yu clenched his fists vigorously, "the reason why the murderer did this is to expand the influence of the Ghost King case!
"Not only do we need to let people know that the terrifying ghost king case really happened, but we also need to make it particularly mysterious!
"In this way, to achieve his ulterior purpose-goal!!!"
