Chapter 1521: another major case

At nineo’ clock in the morning, in the temporary office of the Special Investigation Group, all the members of the Special Investigation Group were present, except for cui Lizhu, including Zhang Peipei, who had just arrived in Guangzhou to meet with the others.

“The identities of the two latest victims have been identified. The eighth victim is called Gong Yili.” Miao Ying pointed to a picture of a girl with a ponytail on the big screen and said,”she’s from Nanyang City, Guizhou Province. She disappeared in 2005 and is an artiste!

“And the ninth victim was from Hailan city, Qiongzhou province,” Miao Ying said as she changed to another picture of the girl.”Her name was Wu aoshan, and she disappeared in 2005. She was a dancer, and the lead dancer in Hailan’s large-scale dance drama, impression Qiongzhou!”

“I have an impression of Qiongzhou …” Ran Tao recalled.”When Xiaoli and I went to Hailan for a vacation, I saw it. It was really beautiful!”

Ran Tao’s words made Wu Xiumin roll her eyes.

“Disappeared in 2005 … Hailan city …” Zhao Yu said, folding his arms.”The time span has been extended by another year! The range of victims has expanded again …”

As Zhao Yu spoke, he had a bad feeling. Since there were two more murder videos, who knew how many more would appear in the future?

How many people had this cruel serial killer killed?

“Killing nine people in six years …” Miao Ying clenched her fists and said,”the nature of this case has exceeded that of the devil case!

“And,” Miao Ying said worriedly,”this time, the murderer uploaded two videos at once. Could it be that he has already noticed something?”

“Mm …” Zeng ke said in a hurry.”There were also times when the two films were released together! Perhaps … It’s not that bad!”

“Zeng ke,” Zhao Yu said, pointing to the screen.”Let’s introduce the two latest videos!”

“Yes!” Zeng ke quickly opened the photo information of the victims and said,”the two latest videos have the same format as the previous ones, and the uploaders ‘usernames are the same!”

As he spoke, Zeng ke flipped to the next page, and a screenshot of a web page appeared on the big screen. The screenshot had the words “OYD000172219” on it.

Zhao Yu was very familiar with the account name. It was the account that had posted the video.

“The two videos” play time is about the same as the previous ones. One takes 20 minutes and 15 seconds, and the other takes 21 minutes and 34 seconds. As for the content, it’s the same as what we’ve seen before …”

“Team leader Zhao,” Zhang Peipei said, holding a document.”If the video team certified that the whole shooting process was real, then the damage that the murderer caused to the victim was fatal!

“I’ve seen all the videos, and every one of them is the same! “Also,” Dr. Zhang continued,”at the end of each video, it was obvious that the victim had no signs of life, so …”

Forensic doctor Zhang’s deduction made the atmosphere in the office even more depressing.

In fact, even without her reminder, everyone knew that the girls who were killed in the videos were already dead. It was just that no one was willing to accept it without seeing the real body.

“Just like the others,” Miao Ying said, turning to introduce the victim’s information to divert everyone’s attention,”these two victims disappeared in their respective cities without any warning!”

“Team leader Zhao,” she looked at Zhao Yu and said,”we’ve discussed the common point of the victims before. I think we can now add one more thing …” Miao Ying reached out and pointed at the white board.”These girls are all single!”

“Oh? Unmarried?” Zhao Yu had never thought about this before.

“Not only are they unmarried, but they also don’t have children! Miao Ying looked at the information and said,”only the sixth victim, Zhang He, was once married, but divorced when she went missing.”

“This … Could it be some kind of coincidence?” Ran Tao couldn’t see what was wrong with this similarity.

But Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something. He immediately raised his eyebrows and said to Miao Ying,”In other words, if this common ground is true … That means …”

“The murderer might not have randomly selected the victims,” Miao Ying nodded and said.”At least before confirming that the kidnapping was carried out, the murderer had looked around and approached the victims!”

“Oh …”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying couldn’t help but look at Wu Xiumin, because Wu Xiumin had been mainly responsible for investigating the interpersonal relationships of the victims.

“No… So far, we haven’t found anyone related to the two or more deceased victims!” Wu Xiumin shook her head and said,”they are too far away from each other.”

“Don’t worry,” Zhao Yu advised.”It’s a good thing that they’re too far away. If they find someone they know in common, that person will undoubtedly be more suspicious!

“So, Wu Xiumin, expand the scope,” Zhao Yu instructed.”List all the people that the victims knew. The murderer could be in any profession, such as a cleaner, postman, hairdresser, or someone with some other job!”

“I understand. I’ll expand the scope of my team now …” Wu Xiumin nodded.

The Special Investigation Group’s way of handling cases had become more and more formal. Except for Zhao Yu, who was in charge of the overall command, and Miao Ying, who was in charge of coordination, the other team members had their own professional teams to delegate to.

These people were all provided by the provincial Department of Guangzhou. Not only were they elites, but they could also expand the scale at any time according to the needs of the case.

This undoubtedly made the Special Investigation Group members more willing to do what they were told.

Squeak …

As the pen screeched, Zhao Yu added the information of the two latest victims to the whiteboard.

This was a habit that Zhao Yu had maintained for a long time. He would personally fill in every clue on the whiteboard, never letting anyone else write for him.

After he finished writing, he suddenly noticed a less obvious problem.

“Tsk tsk …” Zhao Yu frowned, then pointed at the whiteboard, which he had just finished writing, and said,”take a look. This is the time distribution of the murderer’s crime.

“One in 1999, one in 2000 and one in 2001, and one in 2000. 3 in 2002,1 in 2004,3 in 2000,3 in 2000. The two cases in 2005 … The time distribution is different from the devil case and the headless female corpses case!”

“Yes!” Ran Tao immediately saw the problem with Zhao Yu’s words.”In the first three years, he killed one every year, but in 2002, he suddenly killed three!

“But … After that, in 2003, why didn’t there be any? Did the murderer not commit any crimes that year? Or should I …”

“Not a year,” Zhao Yu corrected, pointing at the information on the whiteboard.”The sixth victim disappeared at the end of 2002, and The Seventh Victim, nie Jiaoran, disappeared in December 2004. That was two years!”

“Two years …” Ran Tao touched the back of his head out of habit, then guessed,”I think the murderer either got into a car accident and was hospitalized!” If not, he was thrown into jail and spent two years in jail!”

“You can’t say that,” Wu Xiumin refuted Ran Tao out of habit.”That’s not rigorous. The murderer posted the videos without any pattern, so no one can guarantee that there would be new videos.” He just hasn’t published the victims of 2003 yet …”

“Also! Don’t have any more, alright!” Ran Tao grinned.”It’s already nine. This crazy murderer, how many people has he killed?”

“I feel that sis Wu’s words weren’t very serious either!” “The person who uploaded the video might not necessarily be the murderer, right?” Zeng ke asked, as if he was standing up for Ran Tao.
