Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As soon as Zhao Yu hung up the phone, Miao Ying rushed over and asked, “What happened? You think that this case is about you?”
Zhao Yu frowned as he said with great concern, “I’m not sure, but this is all too sudden. Anyway, its an evil omen, so I should be careful.”
Miao Ying was worried, so she suggested, “Let me ask my father to have a professional team come and protect them!”
Zhao Yu lowered his head and said, “Don’t bother your father with that. Division Chief Jiao has issued an alert, and the Qinshan Police Station will take my family to a safe house and protect them! So, there should be no problem!”
Zhao Yu then took out his cell phone and said, “It’s just... I need to explain this to my parents and my brother.”
Miao Ying nodded, then said solemnly, “Yes. During this time especially, it’s best to be careful. Just go. I’m going to call Zeng Ke and Wu Xiumin now. They should also take precautions!”
When Captain Wang saw how Zhao Yu’s group was planning to take precautions, as if they were anticipating a fierce enemy attack, she also felt the pressure to do the same. So, she said in a hurry, “I... I’m going to contact my leaders and ask for some security support! Do not worry! I won’t let anyone get hurt in Changming.”
“Ok, let’s all be cautious.” After Zhao Yu said this, he called his family, while Captain Wang left the office to go and report to her leaders.
“Mrs. Miao...” Ran Tao quickly realized that he was using the wrong title, so he paused, then said, “Leader Miao, how did I not see that this was coming?”
Miao Ying shook her head, then said, “Well... You can’t beat yourself up. But, from now on, just be extra cautious. This is all because of the ‘unsolved cases master’ title. The Criminal Division threw the public spotlight on Zhao Yu, which made him a target.”
She sighed, then continued, “This could be a threat. Think about it. Yang Zebiao has been gone for so many years. But now, he suddenly surfaces and exposes himself to the police? What’s his purpose in doing so?”
Ran Tao thought for you a moment, then asked, “So, do you think that he is worried that our leader will catch him, so he is taking action in advance? But... If that is the case, then why didn’t he come straight for our boss?”
“Well... Maybe this is just a beginning...” Miao Ying took a deep breath, then said, “There must be an important reason for him to have killed Wu Fangfang!”
At this time, Liu Zhanbing and Xu Hai, who had been listening to them for a while, nodded. Then, Xu Hai suddenly said, “We... Um... We want to see her. Is that okay?”
“Oh...” Miao Ying nodded. The two people had been following Leader Wu for many years, so they naturally had deep feelings for her.
Gao Facai said, “You can go to the anatomy room! Just tell my students that she was your leader. As you are professionals, I know that you can contain your grief.”
“Thank you.” Liu Zhanbing’s voice choked when he spoke, “Although she had a short temper, she was very good to us!”
Xu Hai said sadly, “No one expected that during this festival time, she would suddenly suffer such a tragedy! I was truly hoping that nothing had actually happened, and that this was only a terrible dream.”
Liu Zhanbing then said, “Ever since her fiancé died, these past few years have been very difficult for her! Pressure came at her from all sides, from her leaders and peers. But, she got through that hardship, and I really thought that she could finally have a good rest after the Indian gem case. But... I didn’t expect that...”
Liu Zhanbing couldn’t finish the sentence before descending into a fit of sobs.
Xu Hai suddenly thought of something and said hastily, “Leader Miao, please let leader Zhao know that the 015 Special Investigation Group has only three members besides Leader Wu. Besides the two of us, there is Investigator Liang, who is currently on vacation in Thailand. The liaison officer hasn’t informed him of Leader Wu’s death yet.”
Xu Hai then said, “So, only the two of us are here to help now. As such, we are fully under leader Zhao’s command. If you need any help with anything, just let us know!”
Liu Zhanbing wiped his tears away, then gave a salute as he said, “We will do our best to help you find the guy who killed Leader Wu!”
At this time, Zhao Yu just finished his call and heard what Liu Zhanbing had just said. He came over and said to the two new members, “I have a tough job for you to do right now, in fact!”
“You can rest assured that we will complete the task!” Liu Zhanbing said, while the two men stood straight and saluted Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu then said, “The Criminal Division has not told the public about Leader Wu’s death yet, and even her family doesn’t know about it yet. As you know, we don’t have the right to hide it from her family, and because you two are leader Wu’s colleagues, I think it’s best for you to tell her family.”
Zhao Yu then said with great seriousness, “But, you must only tell her family. This must not become public knowledge yet. Of course, please understand that you are not only going there to express your condolences...”
Zhao Yu paused for a moment, then said, “I want you to talk with her family to see if there are maybe some important clues that you can get from them... Anything related to the Ziliu case and Yang Zebiao! Do you understand?”
Liu Zhanbing and Xu Hai realized the importance of their task and nodded.
Zhao Yu then said, “Oh, and one more thing! When you go to Jinghai, I will send someone to inform the local police station and have them help you! If possible, you should also investigate the robbery and arrest the thief as soon as possible!”
Zhao Yu then added, “By the way, you must protect Leader Wu’s family as well. If the murderer didn’t find what he wanted from Leader Wu, he might go after her family! So, you must arrange for our people to keep watch over them in order to make sure that they are safe!”
Liu Zhanbing and Xu Hai saluted him again and promised him in unison, “Leader Zhao, rest assured that we will accomplish our task!”
Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, “After you see her and pay your respects, you can go immediately to begin carrying out your task! I’m giving Jinhai to you!”
“No problem!” they said at the same time, then turned and left the office together.
“Meow...” As soon as they left, Zhao Yu waved to Miao Ying and said, “I just thought about it carefully... It’s so urgent. Maybe... Somebody wants to disturb our plan! Therefore, we must calm down and think about everything carefully!”
“Yes. We must remain calm and be patient.” Miao Ying nodded. “I’ve never experienced such a fast-paced case before!”
Ran Tao then said, “Fortunately, it’s not our first time handling such a case. I remember one, the pharmacy case, where a serial killer had one victim each day. It was really scary!”
“Well... It’s different this time! The pharmacy case had one victim a day, but after all, that was still only one case!” Zhao Yu said earnestly. “But... This time, the information is too vast for us to absorb all at once. So, we must have a clear focus as we move forward!”
Zhao Yu then pointed to the white board and said, “The Changming Police Station is investigating Wu Fangfang’s death, and now, her two team members are going to Jinghai! So, our main task now is to investigate the Ziliu case information from 13 years ago!”
“Oh...” Ran Tao nodded his head, then raised his thumb in approval and said, “Leader, you are brilliant! Now I know what I should do!’
“Humph...” Zhao Yu snorted proudly, then said, “Look, the Ziliu case must be closely related to the recent murder and robbery! And... I think that it must be the most important piece of this puzzle among the three. So... As long as we...”
Zhao Yu had not finished speaking yet, when his mobile phone suddenly buzzed. Chen Zhuo had just sent him a message.
When Zhao Yu looked at it, he exclaimed, “Are you kidding me? Chen Zhuo just told me that Wu Fangfang’s group actually participated in the investigation of the Ziliu case 13 years ago!”
Miao Ying and Ran Tao were equally shocked when they heard this unexpected piece of news. While Zhao Yu and his team members were still in shock, Captain Wang pushed the door open and reported, “We found the footage of the suspect! Let’s have a quick look at it!”
“Ah!” The three men were shocked all over again, and they gasped in unison!
Zhao Yu then shook his head and sighed, while thinking... This really is a fast-paced case!
