Crazy Detective

"We are investigating our guys," Ma Jichun said. "We'll find the guy. But this may take some time because we need to get permission first."

Li Beini frowned and said, "Wait a minute. Is it possible that the list was leaked by one of the five experts?"

"No," Ma Jichun said firmly. "Experts employed by the Secret Service are divided into different teams. They might have met or known some of the others, but not everyone! At that time, they wouldn't have had the complete name list!"

"But I still don't understand... why does Tao Xiang want the list? The list isn't a map to find the treasure," Li Beini asked.

"It may still have given him some help," Ma Jichun replied. "After all, the experts are employed by the Secret Service and have first-hand information on the treasure. I think Tao Xiang wanted to get some information from those experts."

Li Beini frowned and said, "This doesn't seem to make sense! Think about it. If Tao Xiang had an accomplice working in the Secret Service, and this accomplice could give Tao Xiang what he wanted, then he didn't need the experts."

"Um...This..." Ma Jichun had never thought of that. He was a little surprised and unable to answer quickly.

Liu Zhanbing interrupted them. "Maybe this guy does not have access to the information that Tao Xiang needed. He can only get the name list, but not something directly related to the treasure," he said.

"This... I'll check this later!" Ma Jichun nodded and said, "if you are right, it may help us find the mole!"

Xu Hai asked again, "What if there was no such mole? What if Tao Xiang got the list by himself? I am not looking down on the Secret Service, but Tao Xiang was the King of Thieves, after all."

"Tao Xiang was generous. Maybe he paid for the name list?" Li Beini guessed. "If that's the case, even if Tao Xiang had an accomplice, this guy doesn't have to work for the Secret Service, right?"

"Um... I see!" Ma Jichun nodded and said, "I will report this to my boss and have him look into this! Group leader Zhao, there is something I want to..."

"OK! Cui Lizhu hasn't thought of anything useful yet!" Zhao Yu unexpectedly shrugged his shoulders and said. Ma Jichun was shocked. It turned out that Zhao Yu knew that he was going to say something about Cui Lizhu. "I don't need you to remind me. I know Cui Lizhu is important in this case! But... I also hope that we can cooperate in an honest way in the future..." Zhao Yu said. He approached Ma Jichun's face. "What do you think? Captain Li?"

"Um...You... What does that mean?" Ma Jichun looked like he felt awkward.

"Ha ha..." Zhao Yu smiled then explained, "While you've been speaking, you've looked down toward your lower right more than 20 times. I thought the bug was in your armpit. But after careful observation, I realized that you are just repeating others' words. You must be a high-tech fan. Is it in your right ear? From the outside, I really can't see anything!"

"Ah... This... This... " Ma Jichun broke into a cold sweat and his eyes were full of fear. Liu Zhanbing and others were also frightened and encircled Ma Jichun. Zhao Yu was actually lying. It was the powerful Invisible Detector in his brain that detected the bug. Since the moment Ma Jichun had arrived Zhao Yu had known that he had the bug in his ear!

Ah... Heroes... Zhao Yu's phone rang.

"Zhao Yu, don't!" Li Jing's hasty voice came from the phone's speaker. "If we didn't want to cooperate with you, I would not have sent Ma Jichun as our contact person! You should know that to solve this case you need the authority and support of the Secret Service!"

"Captain Li, you don't need to be overly polite to me." Zhao Yu laughed and said, "I just hope that we can make our work simpler. Don't make it so complicated, OK? I promise that I don't care about the unfortunate events that happened earlier!"

"No shame!" Li Jing said angrily. "You haven't suffered any losses at all. Why do you even care?"

"Ha ha ha..." Zhao Yu laughed, then said, "Captain Li, you know, I'm starting to miss you a bit!"

Li Jing was obviously angry but unable to express it, so she sighed sadly and said, "Zhao Yu, you don't need to check the murder scenes! We have done that. They were all the same as that of Yuan Juncheng. They all died in their own houses, and the cameras in their neighborhoods all stopped working that night! You should know that the security system used LANs. Since it was attacked remotely, the attack must have been extremely complex! And considering the use of the truth-telling agent and the lozenges, I can say that the murderer is a pro, and it may also be a gang-related crime! So, you need our help!"

"Good!" Zhao Yu replied. "The basis of cooperation is honesty. Captain Li, now can you tell me what the five experts died of? I've read the papers, but I can't find the answer."

"We don't know either..." Ma Jichun interrupted.

"Zhao Yu, I'm afraid that the papers are incomplete, so I sent you a supplementary report. Do you think we are not being honest with you on this? If it wasn't for... Hum... " Li Jing seemed to be hiding something from Zhao Yu. It seemed that what happened yesterday had something to do with Miao Kun.

"The five experts must have known some secrets. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been given the truth-telling agent!" Zhao Yu said firmly. "Captain Li, what do they know? Is it about the treasure?"

"Zhao Yu, we really don't know anything about this! If we knew that the five experts were really keeping secrets about the treasure, we wouldn't have taken this long to realize they were killed," Li Jing replied sincerely. Zhao Yu frowned as he thought about Li Jing's words.

"We conducted an internal investigation as soon as we got your news!" Li Jing continued. "Although the five experts tried different searching for the treasure in different ways, they all failed! They definitely didn't know where the treasure is. We don't know what the killer wanted to know from them!"

"Well..." Zhao Yu pondered for a moment. He thought that Li Jing had no reason to lie about this. It seemed that the Secret Service also had doubts about the death of the five experts. He smacked his lips as he suddenly thought of something. "This case wouldn't be a simple case!" he said to Li Jing. "What I worry about the most now is whether the killer has gotten the answer he wants."

"Yes," Li Jing said approvingly. "If the killer has gotten the answer, maybe he is on his way to find the treasure! If he didn't get it, he must have left. If that's the case, we won't be able to find him."

"It seems that..." Zhao Yu shook his head helplessly. "We have to start by investigating Tao Xiang's mysterious partner!"

"Yes! That's what I am saying! Do you understand me now? Cui Lizhu is the key to solving the case!" Li Jing said.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhao Yu immediately objected. "No! Captain Li, maybe we both have ignored something. On top of Cui Lizhu, there is another person who may have the key!"
