"A front tooth is missing? How did you know?"
When Li Hua heard the news, he immediately stepped forward to ask, but Ding Yang didn't bother to pay attention to him and said, "As a forensic doctor, if I can't find out this kind of thing, then what do I need to do? All the bite marks on the body have a gap in the same position. According to the position of the gap, it can be judged that the murderer should be missing a front tooth. There is also some flesh between the nails of the deceased. It must have been picked off from the murderer's body when the deceased made his last struggle before death. As for which part, I don't know for the time being."
Sure enough, with the help of Ding Yang, a professional forensic doctor, clues that should have been discovered long ago came to light. Officer Yang smiled with satisfaction, turned around and told the police officers behind him to immediately search for people in the city who were missing front teeth, and all suspects should be questioned carefully.
Ding Yang seemed a little tired at this time, and said: "If the murderer is really missing a front tooth, the person you two arrested may not be the real murderer. Ji Wen, I will leave the case to you. I am a little tired now, so I will go to rest for a while. Call me directly if you have anything."
Although I didn't understand why Ding Yang was so tired, I didn't stop him. I nodded slightly, and he turned and walked out of Officer Yang's office, apparently preparing to rest.
After Ding Yang left, Officer Yang spoke up, "What should we do now? If the murderer you two found is not the real murderer, are there any other clues?"
I shook my head slightly. After all, the only clues left were the restored portrait and the murderer's missing front tooth. I couldn't think of anything else. Li Hua had the same expression. Officer Yang sighed and said, "Well, I'll hurry up and restore the portrait. Ji Wen, you can take a rest first. I'll notify you as soon as there is anything."
It looked like Li Hua had no intention of leaving, and there was no point for me to stay here for the time being, so I called Zhang Qishan and went to have dinner with her.
Zhang Qishan had obviously done her nails, and she showed off her colorful nails to me along the way. I thought, didn't you say you wanted pink nails? These colorful nails just look weird.
We were just wondering where to eat when Zhang Qishan suddenly stopped me and said, "Look, this restaurant is a bit weird."
I looked in the direction Zhang Qishan was looking and saw that what she was talking about was a small restaurant on the street. Looking at the shabby sign and the house, I knew that the quality of this restaurant was definitely not very good. At most, it was a place frequented by losers like me.
But when I looked carefully, I finally found out where Zhang Qishan's "strangeness" came from, because I saw that there were several expensive high-end cars parked in front of this ordinary little restaurant! Although I am a loser who can't drive and don't know how much these cars are worth, I can still recognize the brand and logo. I immediately wondered, "Is the food in this restaurant delicious? Why is it so popular among rich people?"
Zhang Qishan was eager to try and said, "Why don't we go in and try it? Maybe the food here is really delicious."
I was also very curious about this restaurant. I looked up at its name, which was called Crescent Hotel. It sounded like the name of an inn in a costume drama. So I took Zhang Qishan with me and walked over to try the food.
But as soon as I reached the door and hadn't gone in, I saw that the restaurant was completely empty. There was no one eating there. Two waiters were sitting on chairs playing with their phones boredly. I immediately lost interest in this restaurant. You know, it's dinner time now, and there was still no one there, which meant that this restaurant was not very good.
Zhang Qishan also realized this, and before we were seen by the waiter, she immediately pulled me away and said, "Forget it, it's definitely not delicious. How about we go eat Malatang?"
While Zhang Qishan was talking, I suddenly noticed a recruitment notice posted at the entrance of this restaurant. The notice was very new, and it looked like it had been posted for less than two days. However, someone still wrote the words "invalid" on the notice in black pen. I thought to myself, how could such a restaurant with no business recruit waiters so quickly? Moreover, this restaurant is not very big, and the number of waiters to be recruited is actually five. There is not much business in the first place, so how can they support so many people
But this was just a fleeting thought. After all, this restaurant has nothing to do with me, so why should I think about this? Suddenly, I was a little helpless and said, "Why are you eating spicy hot pot again? Do you want to eat six yuan? Let's go eat barbecue. I haven't eaten it for a long time."
Zhang Qishan also likes barbecue, so she immediately found a barbecue restaurant with me and had a big meal. Then we parted again and I returned to Officer Yang's office alone.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked into Officer Yang's office, Officer Yang, Li Hua, and Ding Yang came out together. When they saw me, they immediately said, "The data has been analyzed. The DNA of the two suspects, Wang Yang and Wang Changyou, cannot match the murderer's saliva left on the body of the deceased Ma Ming. It seems that they are not the real murderer. Moreover, according to Wang Yang's confession, the portrait of the criminal suspect has been restored. We are going to go over and take a look. You come over too."
I didn't expect that I came here at such a coincidence, so I didn't say anything. I followed Officer Yang to another office, and saw that this office seemed to be a conference room. There were several sketches hanging on the whiteboard in front of me. The drawings were so beautiful, and the whole person was lifelike, as if it was a black and white photo.
The portrait shows a short-haired man wearing a mask, with a bulging mouth containing something unknown. Although nothing can be seen from the surface, I noticed that the man had a pair of extremely fierce eyes. Even if this look was drawn, I could feel the murderous intent. I guess it should be easy to recognize him.
Officer Yang was also very satisfied with the portrait of the criminal suspect in front of him. He said, "Very good, very recognizable. Immediately give this portrait to all suspects and the relatives and friends of the deceased, and ask them to carefully identify it. If there are any clues or impressions over there, report the news immediately!"
All the police officers in the conference room stood up and told Officer Yang about the incident, then each of them took a portrait and left the conference room. Officer Yang seemed much more relaxed at this time, and said, "I hope we can use the portrait to find the murderer, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."
I then remembered that Officer Yang probably hadn't slept since last night. Just as I was about to let him go to rest, I suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from the corridor outside the door. Then a young police officer pushed open the door of the conference room, stared at Officer Yang with a nervous face and said, "Chief, something happened!"
Seeing this police officer so nervous, I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart, and Officer Yang was stunned for several seconds before he whispered, "Tell me slowly, what happened?"
The police officer was out of breath, obviously having rushed over to report the news. He stood there for several breaths before saying, "Two things. First, our people spotted someone who looked like the criminal suspect Titan near the Drum Tower in the city center!"
Upon hearing this news, Officer Yang immediately perked up and asked hurriedly, "What happened next? Was the person caught?"
The young police officer shook his head and said, "This is the crux of the problem. Xiao Zhao reported this to us, and then he secretly followed us and asked us to come over for support. But when our people arrived at the Drum Tower, we could no longer contact Xiao Zhao."
When Officer Yang heard this, he was stunned on the spot. Then, his eyes were about to spit fire as he said, "Can't get in touch? How could this be! Send someone to search with all their strength immediately. We must find Xiao Zhao no matter what!"
I don't know what Officer Yang was thinking, but when I heard the news, my first reaction was that Xiao Zhao might be in danger. You know, Bai Longfei and I followed him so carefully last night, but we were still discovered by Titan and Qiongqi. If Xiao Zhao was discovered, the consequences would be disastrous!
"The city center? It seems that Qiongqi should be there as well. Does that mean they have no intention of leaving Zhongwei City in the short term? What on earth do they want to do here?" Li Hua, who was standing aside, didn't care about Xiao Zhao's life or death at all. He was meditating and talking to himself.
I was too lazy to pay attention to this person who only had eyes for me, and said to Officer Yang: "I think we should increase the search in places with a large floating population. This way, the chances of finding Xiao Zhao will be higher."
Officer Yang turned around and asked, "Why?"
Before I could answer, Li Hua at the side said, "It's very simple. If Titan really found someone following him, he would definitely use places with large population flows to try to get rid of the stalker. After all, he wouldn't dare to do anything in broad daylight. Either Xiao Zhao is still searching in places with large population flows, or he has been attacked in a public toilet or a relatively secluded place in a public place. This is the most likely inference at the moment. Just do as he says."
Officer Yang was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and then continued to ask: "What is the second thing?"
The young police officer then said, "Someone just came to report a case. It seems that there has been another murder. The reporter went to his parents' house to rest last night and found the body when he returned home at noon today. The time of death of the body cannot be determined yet, but..."
Seeing the police officer in front of him hesitated, Officer Yang immediately shouted angrily: "If you have anything to say, say it all at once!"
"But according to the report, the victim in this case seems to be very similar to Ma Ming, the victim from last night. They were both bitten to death by something!"
