Madness of the Heart

After DNA comparison, the identity of the victim of the corpse case was confirmed——

Yin Zhen, 30 years old, the boss of Yuanshan Technology.

Yuanshan Technology is a female-oriented company that manufactures and sells skin care products and cosmetics. In the past six months, it has established a beauty live broadcast department. While selling products, it teaches customers makeup on various live broadcast platforms.

The products sold by this kind of company are actually "Internet celebrity facial masks", "Internet celebrity facial cleansers", and "Internet celebrity lipsticks" among many people. Although there are physical stores, they are only for appearances, or to deal with inspections. On the Internet, as for the quality and efficacy, some people boasted about it, while others scolded it with a bad face.

Among the many micro-businesses, Yuanshan Technology is gaining momentum quickly and quickly occupying the market. The main bloggers are crazy fans, and they have a large number of fans in a short period of time.

However, Yuanshan’s success does not have reference value for other micro-businesses.

Because this is just a "entrepreneurship game" played by Yin Zhen.

"Yin Zhen's other identity is the niece of Yin Lu, the current chairman of the Elon Group." Liu Zhiqin said: "Yin Zhen's father, Yin Zhi, is Yin Lu's younger brother, and also a senior executive of the Elon Group. His eldest daughter was born with a golden spoon in her mouth."

Hua Chong is watching the live broadcast video of Yin Zhen and the company's anchor last year.

In the picture, Yin Zhen is elegant and beautiful, wearing exquisite makeup, and her gestures are quite noble.The anchor next to her is more beautiful than her in terms of looks alone, but her temperament is far superior to the anchor.

"The Elon Group started with industry, and now it is also involved in the financial and pharmaceutical industries. It has numerous subsidiaries and its development focus is in the north. Of course, Los Angeles also has Elon's commercial footprint." Liu Zhiqin continued: "Last November 11 On the 29st, Yin Zhen’s family members called the police in Xucheng, saying that Yin Zhen could not be contacted for many days, and they suspected that Yin Zhen had been kidnapped. The Xucheng police took it very seriously and dispatched a large number of police forces to find Yin Zhen.”

Hua Chong looked away from the display screen, "But not only did he not find anyone, he didn't even find any breakthrough."

Liu Zhiqin leaned on the edge of the table, folded his hands in front of his chest, "That's right. We didn't receive a request for assistance from the Xucheng police, which means they have no clues that Yin Zhen appeared in Los Angeles."

Hua Chong stood up and whispered, "Why did Yin Zhen come to Los Angeles? Did you find anything in her communication records?"

"The alarm time was on the 29th, but Yin Zhen 'disappeared' as early as the 21st." Liu Zhiqin said: "The record that can be found now is that she left Xucheng, where the Elon Group headquarters is located, on November 11th. , took a flight to Southwest Sifeng City. Judging from the communication records, she has not contacted anyone except the hotel. On the 18st, her mobile phone was turned off, and her social account was not logged in anymore, as if she had evaporated out of thin air."

Hua Chong said: "Sifeng City... is less than one-tenth the size of Luo City, right?"

Liu Zhiqin nodded, "This is where the difficulty lies. The whole investigation was completely stuck in Sifeng City. Compared with big cities, Sifeng City is very backward, and Xucheng police couldn't find anyone after Yin Zhen No. 21 there. There is no way to find out why she went to Sifeng City."

"Now I know the reason." Hua Chong said, "Because she wants to get rid of the police through Sifeng City and come to Los Angeles. If she comes directly from Xucheng to Los Angeles, no matter how careful she is, she will be left behind by the huge surveillance network." Clues."

"After the investigation hit a bottleneck, both the Xucheng police and the Yin family had a saying that Yin Zhen had been killed." Liu Zhiqin bowed his back slightly and rubbed the space between his eyebrows, "Of course it was a reasonable inference at the time, but the facts are not. Yes, at least until New Year's Eve, Yin Zhen is still alive."

Hua Chong looked at Liu Zhiqin.

Liu Zhiqin: "Huh?"

Hua Chong slapped him on the back, "Brother Xiaoliu, you are already very out of shape, so don't slump your back."

Liu Zhiqin laughed, "We have to take care of everything."

Hua Chong raised his eyebrows, "What are you mumbling about?"

Liu Zhiqin cleared his throat, "It's nothing. I'll go to Tianyue Hot Spring."

Hua Chong said, "Are you going?"

"Isn't that so?" Liu Zhiqin said: "Someone thinks that without the Internet, I'm useless. Should I show it to him?"

After the door was closed, Hua Chong shook his head with a smile, and picked up the preliminary investigation data from the Xucheng police again.

Born in the Yin family, Yin Zhen can be said to have no worries about food and clothing. She has received the best education since she was a child and has a high-quality life.

Although her father, Yin Zhi, is not the leader of Elon, he holds an important position in the group and his words are very important. Her mother also comes from a wealthy family.

After graduating from junior high school, Yin Zhen was sent abroad and returned to China five years ago. While working in the family business, she started her own company.

The lives of most of the young people in the Yin family are similar to hers - work and starting a business are just entertainment, and the huge Elon has long been able to ensure that they will enjoy prosperity and wealth for the rest of their lives.

At the beginning of the investigation, Xucheng police focused on those who had conflicts and conflicts of interest with the Yin family and Yin Zhen himself.However, after rounds of investigations, the suspects of these people were all ruled out.

It is possible that none of the people who attacked her were suspects, and all those who had intercourse with her were investigated, and it was finally proved that they had nothing to do with her disappearance. So who killed her?

Hua Chong closed his eyes and thought.

There are two situations: first, the murderer is indiscriminate killing, and the motive is not that important; second, the so-called "all" is not really all, and there is someone who has an intersection with her, but is hidden in the dark, and the police have not found this person so far touch it out.

Yin Zhen left Xucheng voluntarily and went to the remote Sifeng City, and it is very likely that she came to Luocheng on her own initiative.There is a high probability that such a circuitous route was drawn up by the murderer, and hinted or expressed to Yin Zhen.This shows that the murderer has a very clear plan, which does not meet the characteristics of indiscriminate killing.

If the first possibility is ruled out, then there is only one possibility left.

The murderer was hiding in the blind spot of the police.

Yin Zhen's case involved mutilated corpses, popular scenic spots, and wealthy families, and immediately became a serious case with extremely bad social impact and alarmed the higher authorities.

The police of the two places cooperated, but there were differences in the direction of the investigation.

The police in Xucheng believe that they should start with the Yin family's competitors, because from past experience, all cases involving wealthy families are nothing more than conflicts of interest and emotions, and Yin Zhen was not only killed, but also mutilated. It showed the murderer's strong desire for revenge and venting his anger. If he didn't hate Yin Zhen to the extreme, it would be difficult to achieve this level.

However, the Los Angeles police believe that since Yin’s family called the police, the investigation has been proceeding in a conventional way, and finally found nothing. Any helpful leads.And Yin Zhen has never been to Sifeng City, her sudden appearance in Sifeng City is too strange, which cannot be explained based on experience.

Joint investigations in multiple places are often difficult. The police in each place have different ideas. The ideas and countermeasures are formed in the long-term work. Sometimes they can compromise with each other when they come together, and sometimes they can’t get along at all.

The person in charge of the Xucheng Police, Wang Yueshan, is in his forties. He has been on the front line for many years, and his voice is like a bell.In the circle of criminal police in Xucheng, Wang Yueshan has always been a man of one word.

Hua Chongcai is in his thirties, and his qualifications are still inexperienced. When he was the captain of the serious crime team a few years ago, he was always called "Hua'er" by his subordinates, firstly because of his surname Hua, and secondly because of his handsome appearance.

Compared with Wang Yueshan, Hua Chong is at a disadvantage in terms of age and appearance.

But now that the Los Angeles Criminal Investigation Detachment is headed by him, investigating cases on his own land, he has no reason to let others lead by the nose.

Wang Yueshan spoke like a roar, and when he got excited, he seemed to blow his beard and stare. Hua Chong was not loud, nor angry, but his momentum was not weak, and he insisted on his original idea from beginning to end.

"I have solved more cases than you have ever seen!" After the dispute, Wang Yueshan lost his composure, "You Luocheng must listen to our Xucheng's arrangements for this case!"

"That's enough for you to say that." Hua Chong smiled, "In the face of a new case, experience may be useful, or it may become a shackle. Team Wang, as far as Yin Zhen's case is concerned, the clues held by Xu Cheng, Not more than Los Angeles, and your investigative thinking has already encountered a bottleneck. If you haven't found a breakthrough in two months, doesn't it just mean that your thinking may have gone astray?"

Wang Yueshan said angrily: "In any case, we must look for clues from the victim's interpersonal relationship!"

Hua Chong nodded, "I agree. But if you don't find any clues, shouldn't you change your mind?"

Wang Yueshan said: "Your thinking is just fantasy!"

"In many vicious cases, the criminals' thinking is far ahead of the criminal police's. Therefore, they can hide in the criminal police's blind spot for a long time, and even commit crimes at high frequency." Hua Chong said: "According to the conventional thinking It is impossible for the police to find them. After they are brought to justice, the police will sort out their behavior logic over and over again in the conclusion of the case, and some so-called 'fantasies' will become the routine thinking for the next investigation of similar cases."

Wang Yueshan looked ugly, staring at Hua Chong.

Xucheng and Los Angeles are far apart, and the police of the two places have never cooperated.Before coming to Los Angeles, Wang Yueshan had heard that the person in charge of the Los Angeles criminal police was a young boy. He used to be a special police officer, but he was promoted within a few years after he was transferred.After seeing Hua Chong, this disdain became even stronger——Hua Chong's appearance was really far from the inherent image of the criminal investigation captain in the eyes of the public.

Wang Yueshan thought that he could easily overwhelm Hua Chong, but he didn't expect that after several confrontations, he was overwhelmed, and the opponent was always able to do it with ease and never retreated half a step.

The meeting ended in embarrassment. Wang Yueshan left with Xucheng's team members dissatisfied. Hua Chong stood by the window and watched for a while, then turned and left the meeting room.

This case, he solved it.

Dongye City, Criminal Investigation Bureau.

The investigation of Lai Xiuliang's case progressed slowly, and the known clues could not pinpoint the murderer, and those suspected of committing the crime were cleared one by one.

At noon, Ming Shu, Yi Fei and Xu Chun had dinner in the cafeteria.

Yi Fei and Xu Chun finished eating quickly, but Ming Shu fell behind a lot because he was looking at his phone while eating.

"What are you looking at so seriously? The food is cold." Yi Fei said, "Don't you like braised octopus very much?

Mingshu still stared at the phone, "Look at the case next door."

"Next door" refers to Los Angeles, of course.

The details of the dismemberment case have not been released to the public, but Yin Zhen's identity is special, and Tianyue Hot Spring Villa is a public place, with many people talking about it. There are already many reports on this case on the Internet, some of which are so brief that they can be ignored The official announcement, as well as the analysis of eyewitnesses and media.

When Mingshu just sat down, he was reading a related press release.

"If I remember correctly, there hasn't been a vicious case in Los Angeles for a long time." As a criminal policeman, Yi Fei is of course also concerned about the dismemberment case. "The family of the victim reported the case last year. Killed in Los Angeles, where eight poles can't reach the border."

Mingshu nodded.

Although they are also police officers, as outsiders, that's all they can understand.What is making a lot of noise on the Internet is the huge family behind the victim Yin Zhen. Ordinary people always tend to spy on the grievances of wealthy families. Now that the police have only issued an announcement, everyone has made up countless unreliable stories.

Yi Fei said: "Xiao Ming."

"Ah?" Mingshu raised his head.

Xu Chun laughed "puchi".

Yi Fei said: "Do you need us to accompany you?"

Mingshu put down his phone, picked up braised octopus, and said, "Go back, are you a boy from primary school?"

Yi Fei and Xu Chun smiled and stood up. Seeing that the soup was cold, Yi Fei also thoughtfully called a bowl of hot soup before leaving the cafeteria.

These people in the serious crime team don't take care of themselves well when they are busy, but they care about their teammates very much.

Mingshu ate a few mouthfuls, then picked up his phone to watch.

He always felt that he had heard the name Yuanshan Technology somewhere before. When he searched and saw the Internet celebrity anchors under his banner, he remembered that when he was addicted to "anchor selling goods" at the end of the year, he clicked into the rooms of several Yuanshan Technology anchors.

According to the Xucheng police, Yin Zhen disappeared in November last year, but Yuanshan Technology did not seem to be affected by the disappearance of the boss. It is time to launch a new one at the end of the year, and it is time to hold activities and continue to hold activities. The anchors did not stop there. broadcast.

As for Yin's Elon Group, there is even no splash.

Although Yin Zhen has a temporary position in the Elon Group, it is not an important position, and the family network of the Yin family is very extensive, and the disappearance of a member of the younger generation will not have any impact on the entire group.

But Yuanshan Technology was founded by Yin Zhen.The disappearance of the boss is definitely a major event. For a company of a similar size, let alone the disappearance of the boss, even if something happens to the boss suddenly, people may panic and even go bankrupt.

Mingshu pondered for a while.The more I think about it, the more strange I feel.

The status quo is unreasonable, but it still exists. What is the reason?

Slowly eating the braised octopus, Mingshu thought of a possibility, that is, although Yin Zhen is the boss, Yuanshan Technology does not rely on her to operate, someone manages Yuanshan for her, and she only needs to pay .

In other words, Yuanshan Technology is one of Yin Zhen's toys.

Yuanshan's employees are not worried that Yin Zhen's disappearance will affect their livelihood, because Yuanshan can continue to operate with anyone in the Yin family.

The soup was warm, and Mingshu drank it a few times. When he returned the plate, he suddenly realized that what he had received was information that had been chewed up by the media. Based on this information, it was useless to analyze the case. What he, an outsider, could think of, The police in charge of the investigation must have thought of it long ago.

This case happened in Los Angeles, but it was Xucheng police who first received the report, and the two parties will definitely cooperate.

Thinking of Xucheng, Mingshu gave a soft "tsk".

He has dealt with Wangyue Mountain King Team in Xucheng. This senior has rich experience and strong ability, but his personality flaws are not small-he looks down on newcomers, is self-willed, doesn't listen to the opinions of subordinates, and doesn't treat policemen who are not rough enough. Have almost instinctive hostility.

At the beginning, he only cooperated with Wang Yueshan because of a fleeing case, and he gained a lot of contempt from Wang Yueshan.He was busy handling the case, and he was too lazy to be as knowledgeable as Wang Yueshan.

just now……

Hua Chong is in charge of Luocheng.

The importance of Yin Zhen's case is by no means comparable to the fleeing case that was investigated and dealt with at the beginning.

Thinking of Hua Chongde facing Wang Yueshan, Mingshu felt a little "heartache".

I just wanted to make a condolence call to Hua Chong.

But in fact, the real reason why he cares about this case is the background of the victim Yin Zhen.

Yin Zhen has been missing for a long time. The Xucheng police opened a case for investigation last year, but they have not been able to find anyone. Until now, Yin Zhen's body was found in the hot spring villa in Los Angeles.

Ordinary people can't piece together key issues from these fragmented information, but experienced criminal police can.

This kind of result is nothing more than the fact that the Xucheng police have found nothing, and the suspected person has been cleared of suspicion.

This is similar to Lai Xiuliang's case.

As for the other similarities, it is a bit far-fetched, but it cannot be completely ignored - for example, their death conditions are very horrific, the difference is that Lai Xiuliang was stabbed to death by a steel frame, and Yin Zhen was dismembered after death; For example, they are all rich, but the level of wealth is very different.

The phone rang, but no one answered.Mingshu guessed that Hua Chong must be busy now, and was about to hang up when he heard the sound of being connected.

Then came Liu Zhiqin's voice: "Xiao Ming, what can you do with our flower team?"

Mingshu: "..."

Want to hang up directly.

After the winter vacation ended, the business in various business districts began to ebb, and the secret room of the "Ninth Battlefield" in Dongcheng District gradually became colder after a hot winter.

However, the audience of the Chamber of Secrets is not very large, and the so-called "popularity" is only in a small circle.

Looking at the secret rooms in Dongye City, the most popular one is still the "Storm" secret room club in Nancheng District.

On weekdays, there was no line outside the "Ninth Battlefield", and a group of men and women who looked like students quickly scanned the QR code to enter.

After about 40 minutes, they came out, except for a short boy, the rest of them were not very good-looking.

"I kind of understand why Nana said that this secret room is poisonous." The girl wearing glasses said, "I only feel exciting and nervous when I go to 'Storm', but here... I feel uncomfortable."

But what exactly is uncomfortable, the girl can't tell.

"Me too." The fat boy who was traveling with him wiped his sweat, "I don't want to go in again."

The short boy didn't say a word, but his small eyes flashed a strange light.

His companions complained and walked forward, he looked back at the secret room, and suddenly smiled sinisterly, "Hey! Hey hey!"
