Mystery Tracker 3

Chapter 118 Entry Points

However, locking the target does not mean that they will be able to solve the case.If they really want to convict Tao Tao, they must have tangible evidence. Twenty years have passed, and the evidence from that year is probably gone. The only clue that may still be left is the possible dismemberment site—that is, Tao Tao's house that Du Xinying just mentioned.

"Ms. Du," Shen Hao next to Cheng Jinsong came to the camera and asked Du Xinying, "What do you remember about Tao Tao's house?"

"I can only remember that the house was in a remote place in the northern part of the city. It was a bit like a villa, but it was very old at that time, so the inside was not very good..."

"Are there any landmarks near that place?"

"Nearby... there seems to be a memorial hall... I remembered! What kind of memorial hall is there!"

"XX ruins!" Cheng Jinsong almost blurted out, and Qin Kai beside Shen Yan also mentioned this place at the same time.Shen Hao immediately picked up his laptop and started searching, and soon called up a panoramic map near the ruins.

"Ms. Du, look, is this place?"

Du Xinying looked at the map that Shen Hao showed her, frowned slightly, and nodded in confirmation when she saw the gate of the ruins memorial hall: "It's here." But then she sighed, "The change is too great, and it is the same as I was back then. It’s not the same as I remember…”

Several people in the serious crime team did not speak.Shen Yan and Shen Hao are latecomers who may not be aware of it. People in the city like Cheng Jinsong remember that S City had a fairly large-scale urban renovation project about ten years ago. The old buildings near the main streets and business districts Almost all of them have been demolished or refurbished, and the appearance of the city has been significantly improved.But this also means that the old building that Du Xinying mentioned 20 years ago has probably been demolished...

This guess was quickly confirmed by Shen Hao. He attached to Cheng Jinsong and whispered in a low voice: "Brother Jin, I looked at the map carefully. There is no similar building next to the XX ruins. It has probably been demolished..."

Cheng Jinsong nodded slightly to indicate that he heard it, but he continued to ask Du Xinying with a normal face: "Ms. Du, you just said that Tao Tao didn't have a good relationship with you, so do you know if he had a particularly good relationship at that time?" Friend, the kind that will talk to him?"

She didn't want to hear this, but Du Xinying raised the corners of her mouth mockingly: "Officer, I didn't slander him. He probably wouldn't talk to friends around him even if he could tell the truth to beggars on the side of the road. He is The kind of person who is kind to you on the surface but never tells you the truth. I have been married to him for several years, but I can't remember the names of his two younger brothers-because he never told me. None of his classmates and colleagues are really good friends with him. But he is actually very narcissistic. I remember I once saw that he had a notebook with clippings of his various "glorious moments". He From childhood to adulthood—including in elementary school—he would cut out all the awards, photographs he took, and newspaper reports, and paste them in a notebook. Have you ever seen such a narcissistic person?"

"So he is very concerned about all his honors, and will collect them?" Cheng Jinsong concluded.

"That's right, and it's his treasure." Du Xinying said, "I even doubt that he will still keep that notebook."

Hearing this sentence, the hearts of several people in the serious crime team were moved.If Tao Tao really has such a "collection addiction", then he might keep the relevant items of the crime he committed in the past, so that they might still find evidence that he is the murderer.

"Ms. Du, I want to ask you another question," Shen Hao interjected again, "Do you remember what kind of screen name Tao Tao used back then? Or which words he liked very much and would mention repeatedly ?”

"He likes to read novels about murder and murder. I remember that the bookshelves at home were full of these types of books. As for the online name, I don't remember much. I only know that his mailbox is usually ' Doctor Tao', I don't know anything else."

Du Xinying very cooperatively told the police everything about Tao Tao, Shen Yan and Cheng Jinsong expressed their thanks to her, and also told her not to mention the content of the conversation between the police and her today to outsiders.Du Xinying also understood that the matter was of great importance, so she agreed seriously, and then went offline.

"It seems that this Tao Tao should be the person we are looking for." After Du Xinying went offline, Cheng Jinsong spoke to Shen Yan.

Shen Yan nodded in approval, and then said: "But we need definite evidence now, has the house that Du Xinying said just now been demolished?"

"I didn't find it on the map, so there is a high probability that it has already been demolished." Shen Hao said.

"In the past few years, City S has undergone urban reconstruction and demolished many places, and most of them are gone." Cheng Jinsong interjected, "But I will take someone there to take a look." Then he changed the subject, "But I think The 'collection' that Du Xinying mentioned is very important, if Tao Tao is really such a narcissistic person, then he probably still has evidence of his crimes."

"But, even if he keeps the evidence, we can't get it before arresting him?" Qin Kai interjected, "And if he is not suspected of a crime, we can't arrest him at all. Isn't this an endless loop? "

"That's not necessarily true." Cheng Jinsong disagreed with Qin Kai's pessimism, "Tao Tao, with a narcissistic personality, will definitely want to share his 'great achievements' with others, and this kind of desire may not be satisfied by collecting newspaper clippings. Think about the imitation case a while ago, why did he bet with those two boys? He just wanted to relive the thrill of committing the crime and prove his success. This is actually a kind of 'communication' of meaning."

"So you mean that he is likely to 'show off' the crime he committed on the Internet?" Shen Yan understood Cheng Jinsong's meaning.

"I think it's possible, especially on a platform like the dark web—this kind of platform is more hidden and safer for him. Didn't he do this on the dark web last time?" Speaking of which, Cheng Jinsong looked Xiang Shen Hao, "You just asked Du Xinying Tao Tao's screen name, is that what you meant?"

"There is such a consideration." Shen Hao nodded, "And even if he didn't show off, searching his whereabouts on the Internet is very helpful for us to understand and analyze this person, and get clues from it."

"Then you go and check it out. People like Tao Tao who can even surf the dark web must have surfed the Internet a lot." Cheng Jinsong finished speaking to Shen Hao, and then looked at Shen Yan and Qin Kai. How is it going, how long will it take?"

"We can now basically confirm that Lee and Li Xuanzhe should be cousins ​​of the same clan, but according to their relatives, Li Xuanzhe was only about two or three years old when Lee and his mother left, so they should have no impression of each other. Li Xuanzhe should be after going abroad. I just met Lee. In the future, I plan to contact the embassy and ask them to check the whereabouts of Li Xuanzhe after he left the country, and see if they can find out how he and Lee met." Shen Yan said, "As for this, before Li Jingguo's accident, We lived in a nearby town for several years. Police officer Qiao helped us contact the policeman in charge of the police station. Today he will take us to find out about Li Jingguo’s neighbors. We also have the company where Li Jingguo worked. I have also found out, and I have contacted the person in charge. They will contact the employees who went abroad with Li Jingguo to see if they can find out the situation of Li Jingguo's wife-but these may not be of great help to our current investigation, so I Plan with Qin Kai not to delay too long, we plan to go back the day after tomorrow at the latest."

"Okay, when you come back, we should be able to gain something here, and we will gather together at that time."

"it is good."

Country E.

According to the address, Lee came to a restaurant, because it was not dining time, the restaurant looked deserted, only two waiters were setting up tables and chairs.Seeing him coming in, the foreman manager greeted him and politely told him that it was not business hours.

"Mr. A asked me to come. He said that the ice and snow vodka here is very delicious."

Hearing Lee say this, the eyes of the foreman manager flickered slightly, and he asked politely: "Then how many drinks would you like to drink, sir?"

"Since I'm here, I won't return if I'm drunk."

Hearing that Lee said all the key words correctly, the foreman manager didn't say any more, but raised his hand politely, leading him to go deep into the restaurant.The two came out from the back door of the restaurant, and then entered another building through an inconspicuous small door.The head manager led him through the building and eventually led him through the staff corridor to a suite in another hotel.

Seeing him appear, Andre, who was already waiting in front of the door, smiled: "Mr. Scavenger, long time no see." Then he pointed to a bodyguard-like person, smiled and said: "Old rules, to ensure safety, you understand of."

The man was holding a tray in his hand, apparently asking him to hand over his weapon. Lee knew who he was going to meet on this trip, so he cooperatively put the pistol and dagger on it.Andre took a metal detector to check Lee's whole body carefully, and then took him into the room.

"Please wait a moment." Andre poured a glass of wine for Lee, then stepped out of the door.

Lee shook his wine glass gently, his eyes looked casually but vigilantly at his surroundings.This room is also a suite. The place where he is now is the living room, and the door in front of him should be the bedroom.The windows of the living room are covered with gauze curtains, but judging from the luster of the glass, there is a high probability that it is one-way light transmission...

Just thinking about it, the door opened again, and Andre walked in first, and then led another person in.However, to Lee's disappointment, this person is not Iggy himself, but a woman in her 30s.The woman was tall and slender, wearing a black suit, and her sunglasses covered most of her face, only showing her sexy red lips.

When she saw Lee in the room, the woman seemed to pause slightly.However, Lee didn't notice this. In fact, when he saw a woman appearing, the anger in his heart instantly filled his chest.

"Mr. Andre," Lee said while suppressing his anger, "I think we made it clear last time that I want to see your boss, Iggy."

"What you are seeing now is Izzy," Andre smiled slightly, then pointed to the woman and introduced to Lee, "This is Ms. Luna Izzy, Mrs. Izzy."
