Crazy Detective

When Zhao Yu and the others arrived at the crime scene, it was already dark.

Due to the narrow roads in the neighborhood, they could only Park their car outside and walk in.

Not only was a yellow line drawn outside the temple of Emperor Guan, but there were also many police officers on duty.

Perhaps it was because this case was rather strange, so the number of police officers on duty far exceeded that of a normal case. There were more than a dozen of them.

However, even so, Zhao Yu could clearly feel that these police officers "expressions were not very natural. Obviously, they were still scared.

Although the Guan Thearch temple had been renovated recently, it still looked particularly dilapidated. There was a foul smell coming from the temple, which made people uncomfortable.

For this, Zhang Ling's police officers had specially prepared masks for Zhao Yu and the others, but Zhao Yu did not wear them.

All the lights in the temple had long been damaged, so the police had prepared a few temporary lamps. When Zhao Yu entered, they were all turned on, and it was as bright as day.

"This is the crime scene." Zhang Ling brought Zhao Yu to the back of the statue and explained,"it was blocked by the statue, so it was not easy for people to enter the temple of Guan Emperor to notice!"

"Then ..." Zhao Yu looked at the scene and asked,"who found it?"

"It rained heavily yesterday," Zhang Ling explained."Director Zhang Yun from the demolition Department and his colleagues were investigating the neighborhood. The rain was too heavy, so they hid in the temple to take shelter from the rain. In the end, they found the victim!"

"What time is it?" Zhao Yu asked again.

"Around 12 o' clock in the afternoon," Zhang Ling said."The police were called immediately after the victim was found. The police officers from the branch arrived at the scene first and then informed our city Police station ..."

"Have you asked the residents?" Zhao Yu continued to ask,"do people usually come here?"

"Very few," Zhang Ling replied."We've asked the housing Committee and the residents on the streets. They said that no one came to this temple to burn incense anymore. Although the door was open, only some truant students would come here to smoke or something ...

"We've already started going from house to house, and we've also sent a group of people to the nearby schools to ask around ..."

Just as Zhang Ling was speaking, Zhao Yu took the photo of the crime scene and walked behind the statue. He then started to think seriously.

Looking at Zhao Yu's serious expression, Zhang Ling wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to.

"Don't worry about me ..." Zhao Yu said without raising his head."You can continue, I'm listening!"

"Oh ..." Zhang Ling then continued,"the forensics department didn't find any suspicious fingerprints or skin tissue, and the fingerprints found on the zither were all from the deceased.

"Also, the deceased was dressed up as a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest's clothes were not real Taoist priest clothes. From the fabric and style, it looked more like a costume for a TV show or performance.

"We should also send people to find the channels. They will compare them one by one according to the composition of the fabric. However, there are many troupes and film companies in andu. They ... They ... They ... They need some time ..."

The reason why Zhang Ling was hesitating was because she noticed that Zhao Yu was sometimes standing, sometimes meditating, and in the end, he was even lying on the ground, which gave her goosebumps. This was the first time he had seen someone investigate a crime scene like this.

"And ... And ..." Zhang Ling could only continue with her introduction."We also sent people to investigate the interpersonal relationships of the deceased Niu jinkui to see if it was a vendetta ..."

"Revenge ..." Cui Lizhu shook her head and said,"this case doesn't look like a revenge killing!"

"Indeed ..." Zeng ke nodded, then said,"it feels a bit like the case in France that our team leader mentioned before!"

"You mean ... The oil painting murder case?" Cui Lizhu felt the same way."We thought about it together," she said."I was thinking the same thing just now!

"Um ... Wu Xiumin," cui Lizhu turned to Wu Xiumin and asked,"what do you think?" Did he feel that the deceased was more like a piece of art? Didn't they say that Ghost Culture is popular in wind peach Bay?"

"It's hard to say now," Wu Xiumin said cautiously."We have to look at the body again before we can do a profile. On the surface, this case is indeed different from a normal crime case ..."

"Peach Bay is just a general term," Zhang Ling explained to cui Lizhu."In the past, it referred to the area Southeast of andu city, along the Jiang 'an River.

"It's said that there was a large city here in the beginning, but it was later massacred, and all the people in the city were killed.

"Some people who were lucky enough to escape later built a ghost temple to release the souls of the dead in order to pay tribute to the dead. Thus, a unique Ghost Culture was gradually formed ...

"But ... The ghost Culture is actually all about persuading people to do good and do more good things, but it doesn't teach anyone to kill!"

"So ..." Cui Lizhu looked at Zhao Yu and whispered to the crowd,"I think this has something to do with the ghost king case from sixty-six years ago. I say, uncle ..." Cui Lizhu turned to Zhang Ling and asked,"about Tao Yulan, have you found anything?"

"Does Tao Yulan have any descendants? Could it be that his descendants wanted to fulfill Tao Yulan's last wish?"

"Um ... Well ..." Zhang Ling looked embarrassed."We ... We haven't found anything yet. It's been too long. We need time ..."

"Tao Yulan was an opera singer," cui Lizhu said."The victim who died now was also an opera singer. In my opinion, is there a notice or something? To give a warning to all the opera singers?

"I bet this case won't end just like this ..."

After cui Lizhu finished speaking, she suddenly realized that she had made a mistake and quickly covered her mouth.

Although her worries were reasonable, it was obviously not appropriate to say it in such a public place. It would be beneath her status as a special investigator.

Sure enough, all the police officers present gave cui Lizhu strange looks, and the scene became a little awkward.

"Captain Zhang," Zhao Yu finally recovered from his trance and said to Zhang Ling,"our agent cui's reminder is not without reason, but ... In the current situation, it's obvious that we can't just rely on reminders. The most important thing now is to catch the murderer as soon as possible!

"How about this ..." Zhao Yu said seriously."Since the murderer was so meticulous, I believe that he must have put in a lot of effort on the deceased, Niu jinkui.

"So, you sent someone to find all the surveillance videos related to Niu jinkui in the past month. Observe and compare them one by one, and deduce the videos to see if anyone was following or secretly paying attention to him?"

"Oh! "I understand, I understand ..." Zhang Ling wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and nodded."I'll arrange for someone to do it now!"

"Also," Zhao Yu said again,"get someone to thoroughly check Niu jinkui's WeChat and address book to see if there are any suspicious people or messages.

"Finally, we still have to investigate the video of Niu jinkui that was taken on the night of the crime. Let's see how Niu jinkui was kidnapped by the murderer that night ..."

"We're already working on that ..." Zhang Ling nodded."Don't worry!" "Then ..." He raised his head and asked Zhao Yu,"are you going to the police station to check the body?"

"Go!" Zhao Yu said,"but, there's one more thing that I hope you can help me with!"

"Oh? What was it? Please give me your orders!"

"Can you please show me the record of the ghost king?" Zhao Yu said."I still don't know who the ten ghosts recorded in the book are!"

"At the very least, we have to know who the next ghost king is, right?"
