The sky was already dark, but the Special Investigation Group’s temporary office was still busy.
“The victims in the video were all young women,” Wu Xiumin said, pointing to the whiteboard.”The oldest was 31 years old, and the youngest was only 19 years old!
“When they went missing, most of the victims were already working. Only Miao Xiaowen was a high school graduate.
“They all went missing in their respective areas, and the years of disappearance varied. The furthest one could be traced back to 19 years ago, and the latest one was 14 years ago. “That is to say …” Wu Xiumin pointed to a set of data on the whiteboard and said,”they all went missing between 1999 and 2004, a span of five years.”
“He killed seven people in five years,” cui Lizhu said, gritting her teeth.”Another murderous demon!” This murderer is even more evil than Li Fei and han Kuan!”
“Because none of the victims ‘bodies were found, and they were all quite far away from each other,” Wu Xiumin continued,”so, no one has ever connected these cases together!”
“Then …” Zhao Yu asked,”did the victims have any similar characteristics?”
“Well, different ages, different identities, different family environments, different body shapes, and different clothes when they went missing,” Wu Xiumin replied.”If there are any similarities, it would be that they are young women and have cheerful personalities!”
“Mm …” Zhao Yu analyzed,”just like han Kuan from the devil case, the murderer’s profession should be closely related to the place where these girls disappeared!”
“The targets are likely to be spontaneous …”
“However, there is still too little information at the moment,” Wu Xiumin said frankly.”I will check the detailed information of each victim and screen the people related to the victims in each file to see if there are any similarities.
“Perhaps the real murderer is hiding among these people!”
“Mm! I’ll leave it to you, sis Wu. ” After Zhao Yu gave his affirmation, he asked Zeng ke,”by the way, how’s the video analysis going? Can you confirm the order of the videos?”
“According to preliminary information,” Zeng ke replied,”the video was uploaded randomly, not in chronological order.
“The interval between their videos is not fixed. Some are posted one or two days apart, while others are posted more than ten days apart. There are even two videos that were posted in a row, and they looked very casual!
“Well …” Zeng ke looked at his information, then said,”the earliest video was released four months ago, and the last one was Miao Xiaowen’s video from two days ago!”
“Then, through the video,” Zhao Yu said,”can you tell the age of the shooting?”
“The video experts are still studying it,” Zeng ke replied.”There is no clear time shown in the video. However, some portrait experts, through preliminary identification, believe that the time of each video should be shortly after the victims disappeared and not many years later!”
“Oh … That is to say …” Cui Lizhu said.”After the murderer kidnapped the girls, he killed them very quickly! He’s really a cold-blooded killer!”
“Yes.” Zeng ke nodded.”The girls in the video are all very young, and they are not much different from the photos from the same period!”
“Then …” Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then asked,”can you tell what equipment was used to film this? What type of camera is it? 7 videos, are they all taken by the same camera?”
“This … I still need some time!” Zeng ke said helplessly,”the video has obvious traces of encoding, and the distortion is very serious. He didn’t know if the publisher did it on purpose or to reduce the file size so that it could be uploaded easily.
“All in all, it’s difficult to find the model of the camera and the original quality of the video just based on the videos downloaded from the internet. However, based on the available resources, the resolution of these seven videos is the same, and the image scale, color, and brightness are also the same. Therefore, some experts think that … It is possible that the seven videos were shot by the same camera!”
“The murderer is so fearless …” Ran Tao frowned and said,”could it be that this guy is already hiding abroad?” Because they were poor and living in poverty, they sold their previous crimes for money?”
“Even if he has to hide on the moon, we have to catch him and bring him back!” Cui Lizhu was still gritting her teeth.

Tsk tsk …
Looking at all the information, Zhao Yu didn’t know why, but he had a strange feeling. He felt that there was something about the video murder case that couldn’t be explained.
What kind of mentality would a serial murderer have to reveal his murder video to the public?
Was it purely to show off?
Or … Did this guy get some kind of terminal illness? He wanted to challenge the police before he died?
“Group leader!” At this time, Miao Ying suddenly came to Zhao Yu and said,”we have a non-technical problem!”
“Non-technical problem? what do you mean?” Zhao Yu was confused.
“It’s like this. When the police confirmed that the video of Miao Xiaowen’s murder might be a real crime, they applied to block the website and forcibly block the murder video!
“But the local leaders thought that this website might be an important way to find the murderer, so they didn’t approve it.” Miao Ying said awkwardly,”now, this problem has fallen on our heads. Since there’s a new murder video, I’m afraid it’ll be even more difficult for us to make this decision …”
Oh …
Zhao Yu immediately understood the meaning of this non-technical problem. The video murder case had already appeared, and if they didn’t care, more people would see these murder videos, which would be very unfair to the deceased.
However, if the website was shut down and the video was stopped from spreading, it was likely to alert the enemy and let the publisher escape, which was extremely detrimental to the investigation.
This was indeed a difficult problem!
As the saying goes, pulling a hair would affect the whole body. This seemingly ordinary decision would seriously affect the direction of the case.
“According to my experience,” Wu Xiumin suddenly said,”the website has to be shut down. It’s not up to us to decide!” That was a real murder video!
“Blocking it is not only to protect the dignity of the dead, but also to put an end to malicious spread!
“Once people find out the authenticity of the video, the consequences will be too bad for us to bear!
“Just wait and see, the higher-ups will definitely put pressure on us!”
“But …” Miao Ying shook her head.”The websites and videos are the key to solving the case. We can’t just block them!”
“I think so too,” cui Lizhu agreed.”If Miao Xiaowen’s brother hadn’t secretly gone on the website and found this video, and recognized his long-lost sister, who knows when someone would have reported the case?
“Since it has already existed for such a long time, why should we ban the website and block our own path?”
“Cui, it’s not as simple as you think,” Wu Xiumin said seriously.”It’s true that we don’t know, but if we don’t do anything after we find out, it’s our problem!”
“I’m not convinced,” cui Lizhu pouted.”We didn’t do nothing. We just wanted to catch the criminal!”
“How about this …” After some discussion, Zhao Yu made the final decision.”Let’s wait a few more days!”
“In the next few days, we have to find out the information about the person who published it as soon as possible! Even if it’s just a little bit, it can buy us some time!”
“Hmm … That’s the only way!” After Miao Ying agreed, she looked determined.”We need to speed up! We have to solve the video murder case before the website is closed!”
