Six days later, in the Tianqin Building headquarters in the Magic City, in a basement.
It was noon at this moment, but the dark basement looked particularly eerie with no daylight.
In addition to Zeng Ke and Cui Lizhu, Zhao Yu was led by several administrators of the building and an old employee of Tianqin Group.
"Have you seen "Ant-Man"?" Cui Lizhu was still showing off her skills to Zhao Yu during the walk. "He reminded me. Finally, I used a micro-opener and added liquid nitrogen. Open the safe!”
"Liquid nitrogen," Zhao Yu was stunned. "Is this called opening? Is this called destruction? I'm also curious. Are there any safes in the world that you, the thieves, and your daughter can't open?"
"Yes, there are many!" Cui Lizhu said bitterly, "If you can open any lock, then you are not the king of thieves, but the god of thieves!
"Also, boss," Cui Lizhu pulled Zhao Yu's arm, "She has long since changed her ways. Can you stop talking like a thief's daughter? I am a meritorious member of our team, and I have to show some face!" "
"Okay, okay, but..." Zhao Yu murmured, "There is a hand in the safe, this is..."
"Why..." Cui Lizhu said with a smile, "Don't you think of your hand-chopping case again? I heard that the hand-chopping case is your famous work, Detective Zhao!"
"Actually," Zeng Ke couldn't help but say, "it shouldn't have anything to do with the hand-chopping case. To be precise, it was half an arm! It was severed from the elbow joint... "
Zhao Yu had seen the photos before. When Cui Lizhu tried her best to open the safe, she found half an arm in the safe!
However, due to too long time, the arm has turned into white bones, and the bones have turned black, which looks more scary.
"Half an arm in a safe!" Zhao Yu smacked his lips and said, "There is such a thing in the world. Who would put someone else's arm in a safe?"
"It's been a long time," Zeng Ke explained. "Forensic doctors have tested the arm, and the time can be traced back to 30 years ago!"
"30 years ago?" Zhao Yu was stunned. "At that time, was there Tianqin Group?"
"Yes," Zeng Ke replied, "but not in this building, and this building is only 15 years old!"
"Boss, I've thought about it before," Cui Lizhu said, "This arm may be the owner of the safe! The reason why he put it in the safe is to keep it as a souvenir, right?"
"..." Zhao Yu was speechless.
"Don't laugh, you're not joking! It's well-founded, look," Xiao Cui said seriously, "The owner of the safe had his arm cut off because of a fight or debt collection, so he put his arm in Safe, makes sense, right?”
While they were talking, Zhao Yu and others had arrived at the door of a small room deep in the basement. The door of the small room was open, and the police seal was still on the door.
As you can see from the door, the cabin is not large, only about ten square meters. It is filled with all kinds of old and ancient debris, and has a musty smell of dampness and decay.
After entering, I saw an old and heavy safe placed in the center. The outer skin of the safe fell off and the original color could not be seen. However, there was no rust on the whole body. It was obviously not made of ordinary metal.
The safe is a medium-sized one, not too big, but not too small either. It’s about one meter high, so it can obviously hold a lot of things!
Zhao Yu turned on the flashlight and looked carefully, but saw that there was nothing inside. The arm found earlier had already been sent to the Forensic Section of the Demon City Police Department.
“When we discovered it,” Zeng Ke introduced, “there was only the half arm inside, and nothing else!
"To be honest, I don't agree with Xiao Cui's speculation," Zeng Ke said, "If the owner of the safe was really hacked, why didn't he go to the hospital to pick him up quickly
"Also, even if someone wants to leave a souvenir, they should at least wrap it with something, right? But with the arms inside, it looks very casual!"
"Tch, what do you know?" Cui Lizhu said, "That was 30 years ago. The medical conditions at that time were not as advanced as they are now. Can you just cut off your arm and say it can be reattached
"Also, you don't understand those gangsters, they have different personalities!" Cui Lizhu gestured with her arm, "Look, cut off the arm and throw it into the safe with a bang. Not all the younger brothers can be suppressed. ?”
"What are you doing?" Zeng Ke took out his mobile phone and said, "Have you not seen the test results yet? The owner of the arm is a woman!"
"Ah?" Cui Lizhu was stunned, "What? Female... woman? Female boss?"
"Alas, I'm too lazy to tell you!" Zeng Ke reported directly to Zhao Yuhui, "The team leader, the owner of the arm, should be a woman between 35 and 45 years old!
"Peipei has sent it to the Missing Department for comparison, but no match was found!"
"The missing persons department can't do it," Cui Lizhu insisted, "check it with the database. The owner of the arm probably has a criminal record!"
"I know, do you still need to say this?" Zeng Ke said impatiently, "It was sent yesterday! It should have been checked by now, right
"Since you haven't replied to my letter, does it mean you haven't found a match either?"
"These things..." Zhao Yu pointed to the safe, "Are they all from the Tianqin Group? Are they from the Zhu brothers and sisters?"
"No, on the contrary!" Zeng Ke quickly explained, "We have checked the history and found that the building has been leased to hundreds of companies since its completion.
"Every time there is an update overlap, some unused debris will be cleared into the basement. These items are not recorded, so it will take some time to know who this safe belongs to!"
"So..." Zhao Yu said, "Since it has nothing to do with Tianqin Group, what does it have to do with our special team
"Even..." Zhao Yu pointed at the safe, "If Xiao Cui is right, then this won't even be considered a murder case!"
"That's right, I told them a long time ago!" Cui Lizhu deliberately leaned on Zhao Yu's shoulder, posed, and said arrogantly, "Our boss is now a top-notch detective in the country. Let our boss handle such a small case. Cha, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?”
"But..." Zhao Yu pinched his chin and said meaningfully, "The arm in this safe has been stored for 30 years. It's good to check it out for fun!"
"I'll go," Cui Lizhu almost fell down, "Boss, I praise you so highly, you can throw me down! How about you invite me to visit Disneyland? Leave this small case to Zeng Is that okay?"
"You..." Zeng Ke was speechless.
However, Zhao Yu ignored Cui Lizhu, but pointed to a drag mark on the back of the safe and asked, "Was this safe pulled from the corner?"
"Yes, yes!" Cui Lizhu replied quickly, "It's for my convenience to open the lock!"
"Didn't I ask you to check the accounts?" Zhao Yu turned around and asked Zeng Ke, "How can you still check in such a hidden place?"
"I... we didn't know at first that these things had nothing to do with the Tianqin Group?" Zeng Ke said, "I thought we might find some important information in a hidden place!
"So I asked the detectives to search the building carefully, and then they found this place...
"The safe!" Zeng Ke pointed at the safe and said, "Of course there are important things in it? But I didn't expect... it turned out to be half an arm!"
"Interesting..." Zhao Yu looked at the safe carefully again, nodded and said, "It seems that this safe also has this arm. There should be a story
"Well, this detective has nothing to do, so let's see what kind of story this is!"
