The little face was slightly red, and Su Tingting also seemed to be embarrassed by her intimate behavior just now, so she almost immediately diverted the topic, "I just don't believe him very much." ”

This is easy to understand, because if it weren't for not believing Marven, there wouldn't be the same thing just now. "Why?" Zhao Ming asked in a low voice.

"The mobile phone in Du Peng's study, we speculate that it may have been left by the murderer. Similarly, we suspect that the photos were also left by the murderer. Su Tingting whispered as she slowly walked along the side of the stall.

"Just now I noticed that the fourth person we visited, the old woman's house. Her family has recently purchased some new large items, and the price is not so cheap. ”

Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows, 'A woman's observation is really keen' for a while, Zhao Ming could only sigh like that. At the same time, Su Tingting's words are equivalent to directly explaining the reason why she suddenly asked that question at the old woman's house before.

"So you suspect that what the old woman told us was that the murderer paid to arrange what she was going to say?" Zhao Ming asked.

Su Tingting nodded, "At present, we know that the murderer should have a complete plan, and I don't think he would make a big mistake in this kind of detail." So yes, we found the photo, and it happened that someone knew the location on the photograph and came here, and there happened to be such an old woman who gave us important tips. ”

As she spoke, Su Tingting turned her head and looked straight at Zhao Ming, "Don't you think our breakthrough this day is a bit too much and too coincidental?" ”

Coincidentally? Zhao Ming asked himself. He felt that it should be okay to say this, but the case investigation was originally like this, and there were some discoveries, which were used as a breakthrough to discover more important information and finally solve the case.

It's just a normal process, if so, because there are more breakthroughs today, it seems a bit far-fetched to suspect that these breakthroughs were arranged in advance by the murderer?

Zhao Ming was noncommittal, but he couldn't directly say that Su Tingting's guess was wrong.

"Then you think the hint given by the old woman is fake?"

Su Tingting shook her head, "It's hard to say, because if it's fake, then it's easier to understand." If it's true, and my suspicions are proven correct, then what is going on here......."

Zhao Ming understood what Su Tingting meant.

According to Su Tingting's guess, if the nine people in the photo were indeed from the village they were about to go to, then there was a very contradictory problem.

Why did the murderer suddenly take the initiative to give such a big clue, it felt as if he was directly luring the police to arrest him.

lured ........ on the way back to the police car, because of the word 'lure', Zhao Ming had to recall what happened to Song Tao two years ago.

That day, didn't the chameleon lure Zhao Ming and Song Tao to the abandoned factory through a phone call, and then brutally killed Song Tao?

Thinking of this, Zhao Ming subconsciously looked at Su Tingting walking beside him, although this sound verbose, but Zhao Ming couldn't help but repeat it again, "If your speculation is correct, the murderer is really guiding our investigation step by step, then the next thing may not be under our control........ in short, be sure to pay attention to safety and don't act alone." ”

Su Tingting nodded, her eyes flashed, and she didn't say anything in the end.

The investigation went very smoothly, and although it took a lot of time to visit the village next to the ancient town, the results were really remarkable. The identities of the nine young people in the photo are finally fully revealed.

"From left to right in the photo are He Rong, Tang Ke, Feng Kang, Du Peng, Zheng De, and the sixth person is the victim who appeared in Shanshui Haoting, named Lu Yuanfeng. followed by Yu Liang, Kong Bing, and Tang Yongfei. ”

After reporting on the investigation process this afternoon on the phone, Zhao Ming explained the names of the nine people to Shen Bin on the other side of the phone, "It will take about an hour for us to go to the police station, and the team leader can first see if there are any findings on the side of the missing person." ”

I hung up the phone and looked at the photo with the name on it. Zhao Ming habitually lit a cigarette, and in the midst of smoke, he glanced back at the small village where the smoke had risen.

"What did these nine young people who walked out of the village do that caused them to be killed one after another?"

Su Tingting looked a little disappointed, after separating from Marven and sitting in the co-pilot, she kept silently looking at the busy traffic outside the window, bright neon.

It's night, and the peace is back in the city.

It's like a day of rainstorm with a brief break.

Zhao Ming stretched out his hand to turn down the volume of the radio a little, and he asked, "What are you thinking?" ”

Su Tingting didn't move, her face was reflected in the car window, just as quiet, but also with dark clouds, "I still think there is a tenth person, but no one in the village knows." ”

Sure enough, because of this....... Zhao Ming was silent, "Do you think it could be that the whole village is lying?" ”

Of course, although he said so, Zhao Ming didn't believe in this kind of thing. Because just like Shen Bin said, it is not difficult to spend money on one or two people to lie, but if this lie involves a bunch of people, it is almost impossible.

"The photographs were taken in the late '80s, when the boundaries between the countryside and the city were still clear." Su Tingting seemed to be talking to Zhao Ming, and she also seemed to be talking to herself, "Tang Ke Jiu should not have a common city friend, I think the tenth person is probably in another village." ”

Zhao Ming didn't speak, he didn't know what to say.

The fact is, not to mention whether the tenth person really exists. If it really exists, then it is basically impossible to find that person without seeing the face and without any information as a basis.

It was already past seven o'clock when I returned to the police station, and the police cafeteria was closed. Considering that there is still action at nine o'clock, it is not okay to be hungry.

So, Zhao Ming beckoned Shi Hao, who was sitting in front of the computer and waiting for the system to run, and of course, Su Tingting to go out for a simple dinner.

On the way out, Zhao Ming and the others ran into Li Jian again. Immediately, the three-person team became a four-person team.

Li Jian and Shi Hao are both under thirty this year, and both of them are single. So during the meal, the number of times she took the initiative to talk to Su Tingting naturally increased.

Although Su Tingting's temper is a little weird, she has a cheerful personality and is happy to talk to them. The dinner was very harmonious, and the four of them tacitly did not talk about the case.

After all, criminal police are also people. Since you are a human being, you can't rotate 24 hours a day, and no one can bear that kind of workload.

Sadly, the tranquility didn't last long. The sound of the TV in the restaurant still pulled them back to reality.

It's evening news time, and someone is switching TV channels. However, more than a dozen channels were changed in a row, and they were all reports about this serial killing.

It is impossible for a city to have such a TV channel, Zhao Ming paid attention to it, and the coarse cloth estimated that it should be reported by the major media in the entire province.

First the city, then the province, and further, either the region or the whole country. Zhao Ming prefers to be a region, because according to his understanding, as long as the murderer further reveals to the media the murder of Feng Kang and the three people more than ten years ago, the sensation in this region should not be able to escape.
