The Devil is Lurking By Your Side - Chapter 169
So, what kind of identity does the murderer have? How did he infiltrate Longshi unconsciously and kill Yan Shikai?
“Inspector Lin, why did he get into Longshi? And he was so unconscious?” When Officer Tang thought of the murderer’s real career, he couldn’t help frowning and asked Lin Xin.
“Because he is one of the magic team! He performed with everyone, ate with everyone, and slept with everyone, but no one knew that he wanted to kill Yan Shikai, and this person was still single, had no family, There is no wife, no children, because if he has a family, he will not be able to act according to the plan, let alone move around.” Lin Xin said slowly, his head kept showing up when he met Yan Shikai that day. A handsome face.
Does the murderer look a bit like Yan Shikai?
At this time, Officer Zhang, who was sitting on the other side, looked at everyone and saw that Lin Xin had never mentioned the identity of the murderer. He couldn’t hold back anymore. Taking advantage of her pause, he asked, “Then… the murderer.” Is it just the rice merchants of country T?”
He was a little uncertain in his tone, but he was eager to try, as if he wanted to prove his idea was right.
Lin Xin glanced at Officer Zhang, the corner of her mouth twitched, and said, “Yes, we suspect that the murderer is a rice merchant from Country T!”
She paused, and then said: “There are many mobile circus, acrobatic, magic troupes and other performances in country T, and these performances are usually performed in relatively remote rural areas, just to make some money in the countryside. People’s money. These teams don’t need to do too much, nor do they need to have too many advanced equipment. They didn’t want to make a name for themselves, they just made money to support their families, and the murderer took advantage of this. Click to conceal his killing. I think, judging by his and Peng Dahu’s skillful methods, there may be many teenagers or children in T country who have suffered, but whether these teenagers and children have been found, then I don’t know. .”
“However, if the murderer is really a rice merchant, then I think we can continue to track his whereabouts based on such clues. He is a rice merchant in country T, and I think it is likely to have business dealings with the country, so he He would often go back and forth to the country, otherwise he would not be able to find Yan Shikai’s whereabouts, and quietly found Longshi.” Lin Xin said confidently, providing such a key clue to Officer Tang.
After listening, Officer Tang asked: “Then how do we find him? There are also many rice merchants who have come to China from Country T. How do we look for them one by one?”
This is indeed a problem. Although they guessed the identity of the murderer’s rice merchant, who is this person?
At this moment, Leng Yu, who has been silent for a long time, said at this moment: “In addition to knowing the origin of the rice grains as fragrant rice from country T, we can also find out its source at the same time, right?”
“Yeah, I actually forgot about the rice grains, I will send someone to find it!” Officer Tang said, and then wanted to stand up.
Leng Yu looked at him in a hurry, secretly amused. So, when Officer Tang just got up from the chair, she said lightly: “No, you can contact Officer Luo in Quan City now, and ask him to send someone to Peng Dahu’s home to carry out a carpet search again to see if it can be done. He found rice grains in the kitchen at his home, or found a burnt iron pot on the scene where the van was burnt, and then looked for a bag with white rice. As it was late that day, we too I didn’t expect the rice business, so I ignored these details. Now that we have the direction of investigation, we may be able to find these seemingly inconspicuous things right away.”
“Hey, why I didn’t expect it, really. But Officer Leng, how did you know that Peng Dahu would prepare lunch for the employees in his hometown?” Officer Tang asked again, somewhat curious as to how she guessed it.
“The distance between Quan City and Long City is the closest, and it is still Peng Dahu’s hometown. The location is remote and it is the most suitable place to cook. Moreover, Yan Shikai’s corpse is covered with rice. Ready, trying to use white rice to cover up the corpse.” Leng Yu said, answering the questions in Officer Tang’s heart.
“Oh, that’s the case… Okay, I’ll call Police Officer Luo now and tell him the news about our place.” Police Officer Tang said hurriedly, and then called Police Officer Luo.
And Leng Yu sent a message to Xiao Cheng, telling him what he had found here, and asked him and Yang Cong to participate in the carpet search at the corpse site.
At the same time, she also sent a message to Huang Lin, asking her and Mei Hua to inquire about another matter.
After waiting for everything to be ordered, Leng Yu said again: “I am curious now whether the police in Country T has also taken a similar disappearance case, which means that it is very likely that too many teenagers or children have gone to the magic team. The case that disappeared afterwards… If anything, why did the murderer kill other children? Does he still have enemies with other children? Or does he have other psychological problems?”
No one in this room can answer this question. Only when the murderer is really caught can Leng Yu’s question be solved.
And there is another question. Why did the murderer strip the skin of Yan Shikai’s upper body all the way to his head? What does he want to do? What terrible motive does he have?
And is this motive the same as the children and teenagers killed in country T?
At this time, Lin Xin returned to sit next to Leng Yu again, and she suggested, “Should we ask Director Wang to call the police in country T? I remember he had been to country T to solve the case and met the chief police officer there. They are probably also worried about this matter.”
“Well, I think so too.” Leng Yu looked at Lin Xin’s eyes and said, while showing a gentle smile.
Look, Lin Xin, like her, has a strong curiosity in her heart.
Therefore, Lin Xin quickly called Director Wang and told him about the progress here, and Director Wang also promised to contact the police officers of country T, and even use the power of country T and some clues obtained. Help them solve the case quickly.
“Actually, have you ever thought that although the murderer is a rice merchant, he is probably also a rich man, but why did he choose to participate in such a magic group? Does he love to perform? Or is there someone around him who loves to perform? For example, his Mother?” Leng Yu asked police officers Lin Xin and Tang.
“Ah! I remember Yan Jie said that one of the women he abandoned once performed with the team!” Police Officer Tang shouted at this time.
When he saw Police Officer Zhang sitting next to him looking at him blankly, he roughly told him what they had asked about at Yan’s house.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Leng Yu’s mouth and said, “Well, this woman is pregnant with Yan Jie’s child, but we don’t know if she had an abortion, and Yan Jie may not know, because he said that since the pregnancy, he He left and never contacted her again.”
“If this is the case, then the child born to this woman is also very pitiful…” Officer Tang sighed helplessly. Then, as if thinking of something, he immediately said: “Ah! Is it possible that the child born to this woman is the murderer?!!! If this is the case, he and Yan Shikai are half-brothers, right?”
“Yes, that might be the case.” Leng Yu said lightly, then leaned back in the chair, frowning.
“Oh, grievances, grievances! What Yan Jie did decades ago actually brought such a disaster to Yan Shikai. The murderer obviously didn’t want to kill him directly, but wanted him to bear the pain of losing a child!” Officer Tang couldn’t help but sighed again, a little bit disdainful of Yan Jie’s personality, and also very cruel and cruel of the murderer, which made Yan Shikai feel pity and injustice.
He is only 15 years old and doesn’t understand anything, yet he has to pay his blood debt because of his father?
And what will make the murderer change from a child to the bloodthirsty monster now? What kind of miserable situation did he encounter in his childhood that caused him to hate the Yan family so much that it made him deliberate, killing Yan Shikai and dismembering him?
When everyone was immersed in their own thoughts, Lin Xin suddenly said, “Is it possible that the murderer will still stay in the country?”
This remark immediately awakened others.
Leng Yu rolled his eyes and said, “Whether he is still in the country or not, we will always have a way to track him. Lin Xin, I think we have to find out the entry and exit records of this person, but we don’t know him yet. ‘S name… But I will know soon.”
When she said this, the corners of her mouth immediately showed a very shallow, almost imperceptible smile. Because she knew that as long as they knew his name, even if he flew to the sky, they would still be able to catch him back.
What’s more, the identity of this person is not simple, and it shouldn’t be difficult to find him.
But the only thing that makes people feel a bit tricky is what is his name?
“You said, if the murderer really returns to Country T, do we need to go there?” Officer Tang asked.
“Of course.” Leng Yu said lightly.
This is why she brought the eight-treasure bag that Lin Xin had prepared for her early in the morning. If you really need to fly to country T, then this eight-treasure bag can be used.
“Then what should we do now?” Officer Tang asked.
Lin Xin glanced at her watch, saw it was around 6:30, and said, “Wait for news.”
“Why don’t we have dinner first?” Officer Tang suggested.
“Okay, let’s go, just have dinner first, maybe you have to stay up late at night.” Lin Xin said.
The four people stood up and walked out of the conference hall towards the cafeteria.
They sat together and ordered the same food. After taking a bite of dinner, Lin Xin asked, “I’m very curious about the identity of Peng Dahu and the murderer. What kind of relationship exists between the two of them that Peng Dahu is willing to use for him?”
“Probably he is kind to Peng Dahu…” Leng Yu said, and then put a mouthful of white rice into his mouth.
