Crazy Detective

At night, in the Yun mountain area of Yun state, Chen Yang residence.

"Wow, it's so exciting to come to the scene in the middle of the night!" Ran Tao swallowed his saliva and went to the crime scene on the third floor with Miao Ying, Wu Xiumin, and the local Captain Shao xuejiang.

"There's no elevator," Captain Shao said."The murderer could only carry the victim upstairs, so the murderer must be a strong person!"

Wu Xiumin observed the surrounding scene, trying to figure out the murderer's possible psychological activities at that time.

"The murderer is really bold," Ran Tao said."There were security guards outside, but he dared to sneak into the building to kill someone. What if the security guards were on night patrol or went to the toilet? wouldn't he just bump into him?"

"Captain Shao," Miao Ying said,"when Peter committed the crime, he gave sleeping pills to the guards on duty. Did the security guard do a test on him?"

"Yes," Captain Shao said,"no problem! However, the security guard had some alcohol, so he slept like a log that night!"

Ran Tao sighed and said,"it seems that the security guard can't keep his job!"

"That's for sure," Captain Shao said."According to the requirements, he should be on night patrol every night, but there has never been a problem here, so they slacked off ..."

"How many security guards are there in total?" Miao Ying asked.

"There are only two of them. Each of them will work for 24 hours." Captain Shao answered.

"Then, we have to investigate both of the security guards," Miao Ying said."The murderer could open the door of the bungalow so easily, so it's very likely that he got the key from the security guards. We have to investigate the recent movements of the two security guards and see if anyone is watching them in secret ..."

"Understood!" Captain Shao nodded."I've already done that! However, the lives of these two security guards were relatively simple. They lived nearby and rarely went to other places!

"Also, according to them, they never bring the key to Chenyang residence with them after work. They usually leave it with the security guard!"

"Then ... The source of the key is also very important. Besides the guards, who else has the key?" Miao Ying asked again.

"There's a spare one in the management office!" Captain Shao said,"including the front and back doors of Chenyang residence, the management office has backup, but ...

"We've already checked. No one has touched the key to the management office recently. There are surveillance cameras ..."

At this time, the group had already entered the crime scene. Although the lights were on and the bathtub was no longer filled with blood, the scene still made people's hearts tremble.

Miao Ying observed the scene and said to Captain Shao,"Captain Shao, have you ever thought about why the imposter today is so good at imitating the case from 40 years ago? there was no detailed information released to the public."

"Indeed," Captain Shao said."We suspect that the current imposter may have seen the file or seen the crime scene!"

"It's more like he saw the file, but it doesn't make sense that he saw the scene, right?" Ran Tao analyzed,"if this person saw the scene 40 years ago, then he must be quite old!"

"That's not the point," Wu Xiumin said."The point is, even if someone had seen the scene, they shouldn't have imitated Peter's murder."

"Why would this imposter kill someone in this way?"

Ran Tao then said,"it's like we're back at the scene of the female corpse under the bridge case. If it was just to kill someone, it shouldn't have been so complicated!"

"Don't tell me ... This is all the work of that mysterious sacrificial ritual? Just like the detective case in Chinatown, someone wants to use this special consciousness to seek immortality or cure diseases or something?"

"You ... Can you stop talking nonsense?" Wu Xiumin reproached him,"you're misleading us with your nonsense!"

"I'm just providing a new idea," Ran Tao murmured."Didn't boss do the same thing when he was here? His way of thinking is even more exaggerated than mine!"

At that moment, Miao Ying stood in front of the empty fish tank and fell into deep thought.

In her mind, she was imagining the scene of the murderer committing the crime here, what the murderer did first and then did later, calm and orderly, as if ... His psychological quality was very strong ...

Could it be that ... This was not his first time killing someone?

Just as Miao Ying was deep in thought, her phone rang. It was cui Lizhu.

According to the task assigned to them, cui Lizhu was working with Zeng ke to find the identity of the female corpse. If she was calling now, it meant that she had found something.

After the call was answered, Miao Ying's guess was confirmed.

"Sister Miao, I found it, I found it!" Cui Lizhu said excitedly,"the deceased's name was Zhang Qile, and he was a famous artist!"

"Oh? A painter?" Miao Ying was surprised."How did you find it?"

"Zeng ke used his facial recognition technology to search on the internet, and he quickly matched it," cui Lizhu said."Then, we called this person, but we couldn't get through to her cell phone. We then called her friends and family, and finally confirmed her information!"

"This woman graduated from the Yunzhou Academy of Fine Arts. She studied under Chen Jinghua and is quite famous in the local area. She has held many art exhibitions," cui Lizhu said."She's 29 years old this year, a local of Yunzhou, single and unmarried. According to her friends, she hasn't been contacted for four or five days!"

"However, Zhang Qile is a very laid-back person. In the past, he would often go out on a whim, so no one paid him any attention ...

"Also, her relationship with her family is very tense, so no one in her family knows about it ..."

"The painter ..." Miao Ying repeated. She seemed to have thought of something and said,"cui, now that we have found the identity, I will leave the interpersonal relationship of the deceased to you and Zeng ke!"

"Don't worry, sister Miao. I'll definitely exceed the quota!" Cui Lizhu promised.

Miao Ying wanted to remind them to focus on the victim's financial situation and information about her friends, but then she thought that cui Lizhu and Zeng ke were both veterans in big cases, so she didn't need to go into the details.

After hanging up the phone, Miao Ying briefly explained the situation to everyone.

"It's no wonder that you're the Special Investigation Group," Captain Shao said."You've found the identity of the deceased so quickly. We're even preparing to issue a corpse recognition notice!"

"The painter is not a prostitute ..." Ran Tao pondered for a moment, then said,"it seems that the case in front of us is not exactly the same as the one from forty years ago!"

"Back then, the murderer, Peter, basically chose his victims randomly," Miao Ying said."But now, the victim is an artist, so it's possible that this is a targeted murder!"

"Yes," Ran Tao agreed."I feel the same way. As long as the interpersonal relationships of the deceased are thoroughly investigated, the real murderer may soon be revealed!"

"Let's wait and see who this person is!"
