Chapter 5: The Wind of Assassination

"What does Zhou Gongzi mean is that before these two cases of dismemberment, there was another case?"

Inspector Huang was dumbfounded, and he was even more anxious.

Originally, two cases were enough to give him a headache, but there was still one hidden?

This big Shanghai is also too chaotic.

He thought sadly.

Han Yu didn't care about his mood, and after getting the exact news, he immediately returned to the detective agency and reported to Zhou Erya.

"Sure enough, No. 1 is missing."

Zhou Erya nodded slightly, ticking in front of two different marks, and there were five more marks left.

The first one is blank in front of it.

He fell into deep thought.

"As far as I know, the most important thing for the Seven-Hand Soul Quest is the order, and you must not make a mistake. It's absolutely impossible to make a mistake. ”

"So ......"

Zhou Erya paced back and forth, frowning.

The missing link is the most uncomfortable, especially for an obsessive-compulsive disorder like him, which makes the case flawed and detracts most of the fun.

"If you don't have a starting point, it's hard to predict where you'll be next."

Zhou Erya drew a line on the map of Shanghai to connect the two dumping sites, but a single line segment was not enough to locate it, neither the first dumping site nor the location of the next case was enough to support it.

"The most important thing is who the target of the so-called Seven Hands Soul Seeking Soul is."

If the target can be found, then of course everything will be solved, but judging from the current clues, there is no room for reasoning.

"I have a headache."

Han Yu also felt helpless, even if he didn't consider Zhou Erya's direction, the police didn't have any other clues, which was very frustrating.

Can we only wait for the next case to happen before we can find out the murderer's movements?

This is a terrible situation that detectives never want to face.

"What are you looking for?"

Han Yu was frowning, and a few women shopping ended their journey. Yin Xiuxiu didn't come to go home first, and Murong and Gu Xueli came together.

Gu Xueli saw the piles of materials on Zhou Erya's desk, her eyes widened, she was very curious, and she reached out and wanted to read it.

Han Yu slapped the back of her hand: "Don't move, otherwise don't blame him for being angry." ”

Zhou Erya has a bad temper, if he messes up his information, Han Yu will be angry and will take the blame, so he hurriedly stopped Gu Xueli.

Gu Xueli glared at him, and retracted her hand stupidly: "Then tell me, what kind of case is it, so solemn?" ”

Usually those small cases of the Eryu Detective Agency, Zhou Erya and Han Yu would not be so aggressive.

Han Yu glanced at Zhou Erya, who was buried in the first case, and lowered his voice: "It's a case transferred from the patrol room, a case of dismemberment...... Don't shout and scare others. ”

"Dismemberment?"

Not only Gu Xueli, but Murong's eyes next to him also lit up.

It should have been a case of fear for girls, but the two of them had completely different reactions.

"Is it a dismemberment case in Xuhui?"

Gu Xueli was well-informed, and she had already found out about the news, but she didn't expect that this case would fall to the Eryu Detective Agency.

She whispered to Murong the details she knew, and painted a picture. Han Yu listened on the sidelines, roughly similar to what Inspector Huang said, after all, the police don't have much information now, and even if the information she got from the channel was a little biased, it was nine times out of ten.

"How do you know so much? Didn't Inspector Huang say that it was kept secret? ”

Han Yu frowned when he heard this, and asked Gu Xueli quietly.

Gu Xueli shrugged: "This kind of thing can be hidden from ordinary people, how can people from the Ministry of Industry and Bureau hide it, my father got the news as soon as possible." That day, he called me home and gave me a lecture, saying that Shanghai has not been very peaceful recently, and asked me not to go out and wander around. ”

Her father is a director of the Ministry of Industry Bureau, and he is definitely a well-known figure in the French Concession.

Gu Xueli was making trouble outside all day long, and her father was also worried about her, so he didn't let her go out.

Sooner or later, this kind of thing will fill the city with wind and rain, and it will not be able to hide it.

Murong was frightened when he heard this, but he was curious, and asked Han Yu: "This case is so brutal, what clues do you have now?" Do you know who the killer is? ”

The case of the Women's University was still investigated by Zhou Erya and Han Yu, and Murong now has enough confidence in the two of them.

Although this case sounds bizarre and terrifying, she believes that Zhou Erya will definitely have a way.

Han Yu sighed, seeing that Zhou Erya had no intention of objecting, he said to them the idea of "Seven-Hand Soul Seeking".

He was originally a person who firmly believed in science, but after Zhou Erya was around, he always involuntarily involved these strange forces, and he was very awkward when he spoke by himself.

Gu Xueli and Murong were even more incredulous when they heard this, and felt that it was simply nonsense.

- But this theory was found by Zhou Erya, which makes people feel that they can't be questioned.

Gu Xueli tilted her neck and thought for a long time: "You mean that this seven-handed soul is a method used to curse a person?" Since he can kill seven people and split the corpses to make such a big scene, why don't he just kill this target? ”

It is not a simple task for one person to be able to carry out such a gruesome plan for a long time, and to kill seven people and disassemble seven corpses, and it seems that even if you want to kill a big person, it does not seem to be so troublesome.

"Doesn't that mean that target is more difficult to kill?"

Han Yu replied unintentionally.

Zhou Erya raised her head suddenly.

"You're right, but you missed that. Even the big man of the seven-handed soul seeker can easily be assassinated by the dead. Since the murderer would rather find a way to engage in this strange curse method than kill people himself, it can only show that the security of this big man is very good. ”

He paused: "In the whole of Shanghai, there are not many people who can make the dead unable to get close." ”

In these troubled times, many big names have been assassinated, and many can even affect the entire political and military situation.

Just like when he was assassinated at the Shanghai railway station, Song Jiaoren was assassinated - he was a special envoy to the south, the number two of the Kuomintang, and he acted cautiously and was very tightly guarded.

In this case, he was shot three times by the assassins, which shows that as long as he is willing to cut his body in this world, he dares to pull the emperor off the horse.

-- Although the situation is more stable today than it was more than a decade ago, the trend of assassinations has not stopped.

What kind of big man do you want to make it worth spending so much time?

Han Yu's first thought was Zhou Erya's father, Zhou Overseer, after all, he was guarded by his own army, and it was the most difficult to start.

- But considering that he is in the barracks all the year round, not in the French Concession, it should have nothing to do with this plan.

Among the French Concessions...... And what are the powerful characters?

Zhou Erya's gaze fell on Gu Xueli.
