In the evening of that day, there was a food street in Jinli, Andu City.
Among the bustling crowd, Cui Lizhu held a bunch of fried stinky tofu in her left hand, handed a box of cold cakes to Zhao Yu in her right hand, and said: "Boss, please help me eat, I really can't eat anymore..."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yu looked at the flowing crowd with dull eyes and did not make any reaction.
"No way?" Cui Lizhu looked around, quickly pulled Zhao Yu to a bench nearby, and asked with concern, "Boss, please, we are here to have fun, please stop thinking about your case. Fine?"
"No... no..." Zhao Yu shook his head slightly numbly and said, "These days, the Tianxian is too tight, and it can't be relaxed for a while... What did you just say? What can't you eat?"
"Cold cake..." Cui Lizhu handed the cold cake to Zhao Yu's hand and said, "Don't lie to me, your eyes have betrayed you!
"Boss, we have tried our best, but we have to believe in the evidence. The reality is before us. The Ghost King case should be closed!"
"Hmm... um..." Zhao Yu stirred the cold cake but did not open his mouth to eat it.
"The DNA comparison has come out," Cui Lizhu continued, "The biological father of Mirou's child is Wanfei, oh, Wang Yuanfei! This shows that our previous speculations were all based on nothing, and our conspiracy theory is simply not true!"
Seeing that Zhao Yu still didn't respond, Cui Lizhu said again: "Yes, I know, you will definitely not give up. You are so stubborn, you must think that there are still many doubts in this case...
"However, those doubts are no longer the key. They cannot overturn the fact that Qi Hao is the real murderer!
"Also," Cui Lizhu said solemnly, "the photos on Qi Hao's wall include an intimate photo of him and Mi Rou. Forensic doctor Zhang has also found Mi Rou's hair from Qi Hao's house, which shows that Mi Rou has been to Qi Hao. Hao family, the two of them had a close relationship and even lived together for a short period of time...
"So, Mi Rou's death, coupled with the ancestral "Ghost King Record", gave Qi Hao the idea of revenge and suicide, and then he committed the seemingly incomprehensible Ghost King case!
"Boss, isn't this logical relationship clear enough? What are you still insisting on?"
"Well..." Zhao Yu opened his mouth, then closed it again.
Although he didn't speak, it could be seen from his expression that he was still determined not to give up.
"Please, it's not impossible to be persistent, but what about the score?" Cui Lizhu continued to persuade, "Although we have not yet found any witnesses who can prove that Mirou and Qihao had an affair, don't you think that this is no longer the case? Is it important
"Boss," Cui Lizhu simply held down Zhao Yu's arm and said seriously, "can we change our approach and think about it
"Look, if there is a real culprit in this case, does that real culprit also have to have a clear purpose of killing? It can't be purely personal, right?"
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded.
"Well," Cui Lizhu said again, "through our investigation, has it been proven that the murderer of the Ghost King case must have wanted to use "The Ghost King's Record" to avenge Mirou?"
"Well... almost..." Zhao Yu nodded again.
"That's right," Cui Lizhu continued, "In order to avenge Mi Rou, does the murderer have to have a particularly close relationship with Mi Rou?"
"Well..." Zhao Yu continued to nod.
"Then... isn't it clear enough?" Cui Lizhu spread her hands, "We have searched all the people who have a relationship with Mi Rou. Except for Qi Hao and her, who are still close, we can't find anyone else. Is someone here?"
This time, Zhao Yu did not nod, but Cui Lizhu still said without stopping: "So, in this case, we are overthinking!
"Only Qi Hao had the motive to kill and agreed to the murder conditions. The only regret is that he is already dead and cannot confess the crime in person!
"Actually, the entire case has been clearly laid out in front of us for a long time, but we just don't want to close it!
"Perhaps my words are not so pleasant, but I think..." Cui Lizhu bit her lip and said, "The reason why you still can't let go of this case and think there is truth is because you have a knot in your heart!"
"Well..." Cui Lizhu suddenly hit Zhao Yu's vital point, making Zhao Yu look embarrassed.
"I understand, I understand you especially..." Cui Lizhu said sincerely, "For a long time, no matter what case you solve, you have always been smooth sailing, and you have never been so passive as the Ghost King case!
"Because you failed to prevent the Ghost King case in time and failed to catch the murderer in advance, you developed a knot in your heart and a kind of resistance. That's why you are full of doubts about the whole case, right?"
"you… "
Faced with Cui Lizhu's blunt statement, Zhao Yu did not deny it, because what Cui Lizhu said was true, and Zhao Yu really had such a knot in his heart.
You know, he came to Andu to take charge of the overall situation since the first Ghost King case occurred, but it was not until the murderer committed five cases in a row that he barely found out the truth, but in the end even the murderer committed suicide!
It has to be said that this caused Zhao Yu a huge sense of decline and made him feel extremely embarrassed.
He always felt that if he had worked harder and been more attentive from the beginning, maybe the Ghost King case would not have developed to this extent!
He believed that although the murderer was dead and the information about the murderer had not been disseminated online, the murderer still defeated him, so he felt very angry and suffocated.
Perhaps, it is precisely for this reason that I have so many doubts about the Ghost King case. I always feel that there is a hidden secret behind the case and the real murderer...
Now it seems that I am really being swayed by negative emotions, and am I really thinking too much
But…
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu felt a headache and pinched his forehead.
"Boss, don't be like this, I just saw that you were working too hard, that's why you said it so directly!" Cui Lizhu said with concern, "Actually, for you, this is not a failure at all!
"This case itself is a sophisticated operation. Qi Hao has thought of every possibility. No matter who else is responsible for solving the case, there is no way he can stop it...
"You must not be affected!" Cui Lizhu held Zhao Yu's hand, "My father often taught me that no one is perfect, not even gods are perfect. Sun Wukong's great ability can only be achieved by If the true scriptures are incomplete, how much more so for humans?”
"Haha..." Zhao Yu smiled, "Your dad is quite humorous."
"To be honest, from the beginning..." Cui Lizhu said, "I also stick to your conspiracy theory and think this case is not that simple! But now, the evidence is conclusive, we should let it go!
"Boss," Cui Lizhu said solemnly, "wait for tomorrow, let's study it carefully and figure out how to close the case, right?"
call…
Zhao Yu took a deep breath, as if this breath could expel all the depression in his heart.
I have to say that Xiao Cui's heartfelt words did make him feel a lot more comfortable.
However, when thinking about this weird and strange case of the Ghost King, Zhao Yu still couldn't completely let go. He always felt that beyond his own feelings, there seemed to be something wrong with this case...
