Chapter 1397: The speed of killing
The clinic was located in the High-tech Zone of Hailan city, which wasn’t a bustling area. When Zhao Yu walked onto the bridge, there wasn’t a single person on it.
The traffic under the bridge was not as dense as he had imagined. The cars were moving back and forth, as if they had slowed down the pace of the entire city.
After following Zhao Yu onto the bridge, the police officers were naturally anxious and at a loss. They didn’t understand why Zhao Yu wanted to come here.
Then, something happened that made them even more confused. Zhao Yu was looking at something on the bridge. He suddenly squatted down and sniffed the railing like a Hound.
This …
The police officers stared at each other. They wanted to ask, but they were afraid of angering the detective.
Of course, what the police didn’t know was that, when Zhao Yu was at the clinic, he had already secretly used an invisible tracking device to track down the smell of the suspect, Liang perseverance.
The function of the invisible tracker was similar to a dog’s nose. It could track the suspect by smell.
In the past, when Zhao Yu was solving the Chen sisters ‘falling off building case in Qinshan, he had used this device, and it had played a crucial role.
Now, Zhao Yu thought that he could use this device to try and see if there were any new discoveries.
As for the murder bet in Tang fishing village, he did not care much about it. Because he thought that even if the murderer really wanted to kill someone, it was impossible for him to be so brazen as to challenge the police and make a bet....
So, Zhao Yu concluded that the murder bet was just a cover, and that Liang Weiyi must have something up his sleeve.
Moreover, the local police were very close to the scene, so they would definitely be able to arrive at the scene in advance.
When the water is too clear, there will be no fish, and when a person is too anxious, they will lose their wisdom.
This was what Zhao Yu had concluded after his detective experience, so he decided to do the opposite. He wanted to see what kind of tricks Liang Weiyi had up his sleeve.
In the end, when Zhao Yu came to the middle of the bridge and sniffed the railing, the tracking device’s indicator light really lit up!
I’ll cut!
Zhao Yu couldn’t help but be surprised. It seemed that Liang Weiyi had really escaped through the bridge.
Oh …
He recalled the height of the cargo van, which was just enough for a person to climb up to the overpass.
Moreover, the speed of the cargo van was not very fast at that time. If he had done it himself, he should have been able to succeed.
However, although the suspect’s scent was found, the tracker told Zhao Yu that the suspect’s scent was very weak, and would completely disappear soon.
It seemed that Liang Weiyi’s time on the bridge was very short …
Zhao Yu looked around and saw that one side of the bridge was connected to the park, while the other side led to a place with more buildings.
At that moment, Zhao Yu didn’t need the tracker to know that Liang Weiwen must have chosen the direction where the buildings were more concentrated, because it was easier to escape in a crowded place.
Hence, Zhao Yu didn’t think much about it and immediately sped up his pace, following the suspect’s smell.
Eh?
The police officers couldn’t keep up with Zhao Yu’s pace at all. After Zhao Yu had left them far behind, they quickly ran after him.
“Di di di …”
Just as Zhao Yu walked down the bridge and came to the opposite sidewalk, his mobile phone suddenly rang.
“Team leader Zhao, I’ve already shared the suspect’s phone number with you. If he calls again, you can just use your phone to answer it. I’ll give you a hint.
“Also, we’ve found out that Tang fishing village has been demolished and no one is living there anymore!” Zhao Yu said.
“What?” Although Zhao Yu was already mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised. He asked,”then … What about number 2 and 7? What’s the situation?”
“No. 267, I’ve checked!” Miao Ying said,”it’s a Zhang family, a fisherman. We’ve located the owner’s mobile phone, and he’s in the relocation house in yanghai County!”
“Oh … Then …”
“Captain li has already informed the local police!” Miao Ying understood what Zhao Yu meant and immediately said,”there’s a police station near the placement room. You can arrive at the scene in two minutes!”
“Alright!” Zhao Yu said,”then send someone to investigate this family’s background!”
Although Zhao Yu said that, his mind wasn’t on the phone. He still felt that the murder bet was just Liang Weiyi trying to drag the police’s experience into it. The most important thing was still the tracking in front of them!
“Okay,” Miao Ying said.”Don’t be too anxious, the local police have already set off!”
“Mm, don’t worry, don’t worry … There’s no hurry …” Zhao Yu turned around and looked at the accompanying police officers, but saw that they all looked embarrassed …
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yu continued to follow the trail. Because the smell signal was not stable, Zhao Yu had to lower his height like a police dog to smell clearly.
Zhao Yu sniffed as he walked, and the few police officers behind him scratched their ears and cheeks, making the scene very awkward.
“This is so strange …” When Zhao Yu walked into a Commercial Street, he suddenly heard a man’s dejected voice coming from one of the shops.”I left my phone here, how can it be gone?”
“You can continue looking!” The woman in the shop advised,”that broken phone of yours can’t even fit WeChat. No one will pick it up even if you throw it on the street!”
“I did, why is it gone?” The man ran to the door and started to search the counter outside.
“Boss,” Zhao Yu immediately came forward and asked,”does your phone number start from 136? The ending number is a … Mm … A 6?”
“Yes … Yes! “How did you …” The boss looked up and was shocked to see so many police officers. He was shocked and said in amazement,”police comrades … You guys came so quickly! I just found out that I lost my phone, and you guys found out before I did …”
“Sir …” Seeing this, a police officer finally couldn’t help but ask Zhao Yu,”do you mean that the suspect has been here?”
“Then …” Another one volunteered,”I’ll go check the surveillance cameras?”
In the end, Zhao Yu only shook his head slightly, then continued to follow the smell.
“Then … Where’s my phone?” Soon, only the back of the boss was left at the end of the street …
Then, Zhao Yu took a group of police officers and walked through the business district. After a short walk, the view in front of them suddenly widened, and they came to a small square with a fountain rockery.
Everyone looked up and saw a magnificent cathedral of heaven’s Lord in front of them. There was even a big bell built on the top of the Cathedral!
Hu …
Zhao Yu took a deep breath, then held his breath and carefully searched for the suspect’s scent.
In the end, something that disappointed Zhao Yu happened. Just as he reached the bus stop, the smell suddenly disappeared!
Damn it!
Zhao Yu was depressed. The device’s manual clearly stated that the invisible tracking device would not work when the target was far away in a vehicle.
However, there was more than one bad thing. He was just thinking about how to adjust the surveillance camera to track the suspect’s escape route. But Miao Ying’s phone rang again.
“Team leader Zhao, um …” Miao Ying’s voice was low, and Zhao Yu instinctively felt that something was wrong. “After the yanghai County Police station received the order, they immediately informed the nearby patrol officers.
“Now, the police have found Tang fishing village No. 267, where … Um …” Miao Ying said with difficulty,”they really found the body of a Pi Xiu there!”
