At nine o'clock in the morning, in the temporary office of the special investigation team, except Cui Lizhu, all the members of the special investigation team were present, including forensic doctor Zhang Peipei, who had just arrived in Guangdong Province to join everyone.
"The identities of the two latest victims have been identified. The eighth victim's name is Gong Yili," Miao Ying said, pointing to the photo of a girl with a ponytail on the big screen, "Guizhou Province A native of NY City, he disappeared in 2005 and was a road performer!
"The ninth victim is from Hailan City, Qiongzhou Province," Miao Ying said, changing another photo of a girl. "Her name is Wu Aoshan. She disappeared in 2005. She is a dancer. She is Hailan. An actor in the large-scale dance drama 'Impression of Qiongzhou', and also a lead dancer!"
"Impression of Qiongzhou..." Ran Tao recalled, "Xiaoli and I saw it when we went to Hailan for vacation. It was so beautiful and beautiful!"
Ran Tao's words immediately earned Wu Xiumin's eyes.
"Disappeared in 2005... Hailan City..." Zhao Yu crossed his arms and thought, "The time span has been extended by another year! The scope of the victims has been expanded..."
As Zhao Yu said this, something bad naturally arose in his heart. Now that two more murder videos have appeared, who knows how many more videos will appear in the future
How many people did this cruel serial killer kill?
"Killed 9 people in 6 years..." Miao Ying also clenched her fists and said, "The nature of this case has exceeded that of the devil case!
"Moreover," Miao Ying said worriedly, "this time, the murderer uploaded two videos at once. Has...he already noticed it?"
"Well..." Zeng Ke said hurriedly, "There were times when two movies were broadcast together! Maybe... it's not that bad!"
"Zeng Ke," Zhao Yu pointed at the screen and said, "Tell us about the two latest videos!"
"Yes!" Zeng Ke hurriedly opened the victim's photo information and introduced, "The format of the two newly uploaded videos is exactly the same as the previous one, and the user name of the uploader is also the same person!"
With that said, Zeng Ke turned the page of the picture, and a screenshot of the webpage suddenly appeared on the big screen, with the words "OYD000172219" written on the screenshot.
Zhao Yu was already very familiar with this username. It was the account used by the video publisher.
"The playing time of the two videos is similar to the previous ones, one is 20 minutes and 15 seconds, and the other is 21 minutes and 34 seconds. As for the content played, it is exactly the same as what we have seen before..."
"Team Leader Zhao," Zhang Peipei said, holding a piece of information, "If the video team confirms that the entire filming process is real, then the harm the murderer caused to the victim is fatal!
"I have watched all the videos, and every one of them is like this! Moreover," Forensic Doctor Zhang added, "At the end of each video, it can be clearly seen that the victim has no vital signs, so..."
Forensic Doctor Zhang's inference couldn't help but make the atmosphere in the office even more depressing.
In fact, without her reminding, everyone knew in their hearts that the girls murdered in those videos were dead. However, no one was willing to accept it since they didn't see the actual bodies.
"Like everyone else," Miao Ying saw this and introduced the victim's information to divert everyone's attention, "the two victims also disappeared in their respective cities, and there were no signs before they disappeared!
"Team Leader Zhao," she said facing Zhao Yu, "We have discussed the common points of the victims before. I think we can add one more now..." Miao Ying pointed at the whiteboard, "These girls are all unmarried!!"
"Oh? Unmarried?" Zhao Yu had never thought about this before.
"Not only are they unmarried, but they all have no children! Here... um..." Miao Ying glanced at the information and said, "Only the sixth victim, Zhang He, was once married, but he was divorced when he disappeared."
"This... couldn't be some kind of coincidence, right?" Ran Tao couldn't see what's wrong with this commonality
But Zhao Yu suddenly thought of the point, and immediately raised his eyebrows and said to Miao Ying: "In other words, if this common ground is really established... then it means..."
"The murderer may not have randomly selected the victim," Miao Ying nodded and gave the answer, "At least before confirming the kidnapping, the murderer had scouted and approached the victim!"
"oh… "
Hearing this, Zhao and Miao couldn't help but focus on Wu Xiumin, because before, Wu Xiumin was mainly responsible for investigating the victim's interpersonal relationships.
"No... no one related to two or more of the deceased has been found yet!" Wu Xiumin shook her head and said, "The distance between them is too far."
"Don't worry," Zhao Yu advised, "It's a good thing that the distance is too far, so once they find someone they know in common, that person's suspicion of committing the crime will undoubtedly be greater!
"So, Sister Wu, next you expand the scope," Zhao Yu ordered, "list all the people known to each victim. The murderer... may be from any profession, such as a cleaner, a postman, a hairdresser, or Someone from some other job!"
"Understood, I will ask my team to expand the scope..." Wu Xiumin nodded.
Today, the case-handling form of the special investigation team is becoming more formal. Except for Zhao Yu who is in charge of the general command and Miao Ying who is in charge of coordination, all other team members have their own professional teams for delegation.
These people are provided by the Guangdong Provincial Department. Not only are they selected from the elite, but they can also be expanded at any time according to the needs of the case.
This will undoubtedly make the special team members more comfortable.
squeak squeak...
With the sound of the pen, Zhao Yu added the information of the two latest victims on the whiteboard.
This is a habit that Zhao Yu has maintained for a long time. He has to add every clue on the whiteboard himself and never lets others write for him.
After finishing writing, he suddenly discovered a less obvious problem.
"Tsk tsk..." Zhao Yu frowned, clicked on the whiteboard where he had just written the information, and said, "Take a look, this is the time distribution of the murderer's crimes:
"One in 1999; one in 2000 and 2001; three in 2002; one in 2004; two in 2005... Is this time distribution... different from the demon case and the headless female corpse case? !”
"Yes!" Zhao Yu said this, and Ran Tao immediately saw something wrong, "In the first three years, one was killed every year, but in 2002, three were suddenly killed!
"But... then, in 2003, there was no one at all? Didn't the murderer commit the crime that year? Or... "
"It's not a year," Zhao Yu corrected, pointing to the information on the whiteboard. "The sixth victim disappeared at the end of 2002, and the seventh victim, Qu Jiaoran, disappeared in December 2004. During this period, there were two years. !”
"Two years..." Ran Tao rubbed the back of his head out of habit and guessed, "I think the murderer either had a car accident and was admitted to the hospital! Or he was sent to a cell and spent two years in prison!"
"You can't say that," Wu Xiumin habitually retorted to Ran Tao, "It's not rigorous. The murderer releases videos irregularly. No one can guarantee that new videos will appear? He just hasn't released the victims of 2003 yet. …”
"There are more! Please stop it, okay!" Ran Tao grinned, "There are already 9 people. How many people has this perverted murderer killed?"
"I think Sister Wu's words are not rigorous!" Who knows, Zeng Ke said as if to help Ran Tao, "The person who uploaded the video is not necessarily the murderer, right?"
