Five o'clock in the afternoon, Xiangjiang Police Station, Special Task Force Office.
"Team leader..." When there was no one around, Wu Xiumin quietly came up behind Zhao Yu and said with a red face, "I'm sorry, I didn't examine that Gao Jia clearly, and he got through!"
"No..." Zhao Yu was adding information on the whiteboard. When he heard this, he hurriedly turned back to comfort him, "Don't say that, this matter is my responsibility and has nothing to do with you, Sister Wu.
"Although I was suspicious of that guy at the time, I didn't study it carefully, so this mistake happened. It's none of your business.
"Besides, he had a sufficient alibi at the time. It is reasonable that the case was missed during the trial."
"Well..." Wu Xiumin nodded and said, "I will remember this lesson and will not make the same mistake next time."
"Well, Sister Wu has always been the most stable person in our group," Zhao Yu said sincerely, "Don't let this little thing affect your mood. We still have a lot to do next!"
"Well, don't worry! By the way..." Wu Xiumin thought of something and said hurriedly, "Mia's family and friends have arrived at the police station. I'll go handle it!"
"Okay," Zhao Yu ordered, "by the way, ask about that Gao Jia and see what they say."
"Understood!" After saying that, Wu Xiumin turned and left the office.
However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw Ding Lan's tall figure entering the office like the wind.
"Brother-in-law..." Ding Lan gasped, "I just received the news—Gao Jia is dead!!"
"What!?"
With one sentence, the whole room was shocked, even Wu Xiumin who was about to leave stopped.
"Twenty minutes ago, he was found in the bathroom of Bangkok Airport," Ding Lan said. "The neck was directly twisted. It may have been the work of a professional killer!"
"He's actually dead..." Zhao Yu felt incredible and immediately scratched his head and said, "You haven't even left the airport, how could you be so impatient
"My grandma bear, what on earth did this Dr. Mia get into!?"
"Yeah..." Cui Lizhu also felt out of breath, "So what if it's the Gumantong murder case, as for killing people so crazily and silencing them?"
"Could it be..." Ran Tao said, "This case involves something else that has nothing to do with Gumantong? For example... a drug cartel or something..."
"I have sent people to verify the situation and launch an investigation!" Ding Lan said, "Besides this matter, I have a few more things to say, so let's do the same!
"Look at this first..."
With that said, she handed a piece of information to Zhao Yu.
"We compared the photo of the suspect in the car rental shop and found no one who matched the conditions. Our comparison expert said..." Ding Lan pointed to the suspect in the photo, "This person should be disguised and has a big beard." , sunglasses and hats, these are the most common methods of disguise.”
"It seems... he is also a master..." Zhao Yu bit his lip lightly.
"We asked the clerk," Ding Lan added, "the clerk remembered that his Cantonese was very substandard, with a foreign accent, mixed with unauthentic English...
"Also..." Ding Lan gestured to his long legs, "His right leg is lame and he walks with a slight limp!"
"Limp?" Zhao Yu shook his head, "It's probably a disguise."
"Yes!" Ding Lan said, "But we suspect that this should be a foreigner."
"Have you checked the airport?" Zhao Yu asked quickly, "Have you found any suspicious targets?"
"Still investigating..." Ding Lan replied, "If the suspect is disguised, it will be difficult to identify. We can only use body contour technology, which will take time..."
“Now, all the problems lie with the bearded guy who rented the car!” Cui Lizhu said, “He followed Mia and contacted Mia’s assistant.
"Maybe, Mia and Gaojia were killed by him!"
"No!" Ding Lan said decisively, "Gao Jia's neck was twisted, and it looked like it was done by a professional killer. But the person who killed Mia was not a professional, it was more like his first time killing someone!"
"Oh..." Cui Lizhu covered her mouth.
"Besides this big beard, we have another important point..." Zhao Yu turned back and pointed at the whiteboard and said, "Mia's last call!"
"Maha Zaya!" Ran Tao said, "Boss, do you think Mia's death is related to the Buddha statue case?"
"No!" Zhao Yu said, "When I was talking to Mia, I reminded him to investigate the last few cases of the Gumantong killer.
“Coincidentally, the last case of the Gumantong murder case happened to happen in Mahazaya!!
"I feel..." Zhao Yu's eyes became dark, "This is not a coincidence."
"Yes!" Cui Lizhu smacked her lips, "The four sole traders who snatched the banknotes said that it was because of the GumanTong murder case in Mahazaya that they were deeply impressed and came up with the idea of using GuManTong. …”
"Ding Lan..." Zhao Yu turned around and asked, "Have you found out who the caller Mia made is from Mahazaya?"
"We found it," Ding Lan said. "That phone number belongs to the Mahazaya National Guard Bureau. Before the coup, it was called the Supreme Judicial Police Department, which is equivalent to our Criminal Department."
"Oh..." Zhao Yu clenched his fists involuntarily and asked again, "Then... can you find out who you communicated to?"
"Well...brother-in-law..." Ding Lan took Zhao Yu's arm, pulled him aside, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "That phone number is the switchboard, and we don't know who Mia called!
"I was just going to ask you, do we... need to fight?"
oh…
Zhao Yu finally understood why Ding Lan was so careful.
In fact, just by making a phone call, you might be able to find out who Mia had been talking to on the phone for more than 50 minutes. However, once the person on the other end of the phone is related to the case, it is tantamount to alerting the enemy!
Therefore, this call cannot be made!
Tsk tsk…
At this time, Zhao Yu was in trouble and had to ask: "So... is there no way to find out from the side?"
"That's Mahazaya," Ding Lan shook his head, "A coup just happened there, and the situation is more complicated than the Wakria and Western Sahara you've been to!"
“…”
Zhao Yu fell into deep thought. He already felt that Mia's death was much more complicated than imagined. Behind it, there might be something very, very difficult to control!
So... what should I do next
"I checked," Ding Lan continued, "Since you talked to Mia, he made a total of six phone calls. The other five were normal calls of less than one minute, either to his family or to contact him. About the concert.
"So, if there is a problem, then the only international long distance call that lasts 50 minutes!
"But..." Ding Lan glanced at Zhao Yu and said with concern, "The call came from Mahazaya, which is beyond the scope of our mission!
"Brother-in-law..." Ding Lan said very seriously, "This case... should we continue to investigate?"
"..." Zhao Yu looked at Ding Lan, thought carefully, and then said firmly, "Check!!!"
“Giving up halfway is not my style as a cold case sweeper!
"Since my debut, I, Zhao Yu, have never abandoned a case halfway!
“It never happened before, and it never will happen in the future!
"Sister..." Zhao Yu pressed Ding Lan's shoulders with both hands and said with firm eyes, "Let's think of a way. Let's go to Mahazaya!"
Bang...
Cui Lizhu didn't hold a single one of her hands firmly, and the file bag in her hand fell to the ground with a clang...
