Donghua City People's Court.
The yellow police tape formed a long circle with the defendant's seat as the center.
Criminal police, forensic doctors, and trace experts filled the small space.
The police chief, Chen Huatao, stood outside the circle with his arms crossed and his brows furrowed.
In his twenty-five years as a police officer, he never dreamed that a court would become a crime scene one day.
Moreover, this case was so strange.
From the beginning to the end, the murderer did not appear at the scene, but he controlled the entire case remotely and perfectly achieved his goal of killing.
How many years had it been since he had encountered such a strange case, such a superb modus operandi, and such a high-intelligence criminal?
More importantly, he later found out that the murderer had broadcasted the entire crime scene to the public without reservation. Although according to the statistics of Douyu's website, there were only tens of thousands of viewers watching the live broadcast, these tens of thousands of people were distributed all over the country.
Now, the news of the murder in Dong Hua Court had spread all over the country. Netizens were discussing it fervently. Even if he let the internet police monitor the fishing boat, he could only control Dong Hua. He would never be able to control the whole country.
It had only been three hours since the incident, but he had already received calls from the mayor, the secretary of the municipal party committee, and even the provincial public security department. This kind of pressure was unimaginable.
This case could be said to be the most serious challenge he had ever faced since he became a police officer!
If he was not careful, it would become the biggest stain in his life.
He would never allow such a thing to happen!
At this moment, a heroic policewoman walked over and saluted,""Reporting to Chief Chen, the results of the investigation on the website are out.”
"What do you mean?" Chen Huatao raised his thick eyebrows.
Zhao Hanxue replied in a crisp voice," Douyu's vice president and technical director, Xiang Lie, reported that there were many incomprehensible bugs on the website when the crime livestream happened. One of them was that the audience was forced into the livestream and could not exit. The technical analysis is not clear about the principle, but it is currently speculated that it was infected with a virus.
In addition, five minutes after the crime livestream started, Douyu's officials had already detected the abnormality of the livestream room. However, regardless of whether they closed the livestream room or blocked the streamer's account, Douyu could not do anything. The highest authority of the website's backstage had lost its function, and the streamer's IP was also in a state where it could not be found.
In addition, after the live broadcast ended, the money donated by the netizens was directly transferred overseas without being settled by the website. The whereabouts of the funds were still under investigation.”
Chen Huatao frowned and asked," Xiao Zhao, you majored in computer science at the People's Public Security University of China. From your professional point of view, can these abnormalities on Douyu website really happen?"”
Zhao Hanxue hesitated for a moment before replying,""If it was a top hacker, he should be able to do it. However, there are only a few such people in the country.”
"In that case, you can arrange the materials here for Team Three's captain, Li Bin, later. Let him use this line as the basis and combine it with the direction of the funds to lead the comrades of Team Three to investigate. I will transfer a group of experts from the Internet Department to assist them.”
"Understood, Chief Chen!" Zhao Hanxue saluted.
At this time, the captain of the Criminal Police Team One, Gu Qiang, also walked over and said,"Chief Chen, the results of the site investigation are roughly out.”
"Tell me about it." Chen Huatao raised his chin.”
Gu Qiang replied," First, it's the metal cage. The cage is made of special alloy steel. There are very precise mechanisms inside. However, these mechanisms have been corroded by the concentrated acid. We can't recognize them clearly, nor can we restore them.
In addition, the miniature bombs in the untied high-carbon wire ropes were all dissolved by the concentrated acid. These follow-up disposal methods were presumably designed by the murderer to destroy the tools after the crime.
As for Zhou Chao's autopsy results, it was confirmed that he had died of poisoning, but whether the poison was the biological poison of the blue-striped octopus depended on further identification.
From the scene alone, although the murderer did not appear, there were still many clues left behind, such as high-carbon steel wire and special wire pliers. These were professional high-end products that ordinary people rarely bought. If they investigated carefully, they should be able to find the source.
As for the metal cage, there were probably only a few people in the entire Dong Hua City who could design such precise mechanisms and create such a beautiful mechanical body. If they investigated seriously, they should be able to find something.
Finally, there was the toxin. If it was really the biological toxin of the blue-striped octopus, then it would be easier to get the result from the source of the toxin. After all, the blue-striped octopus was basically only active in the coastal waters of foreign countries. There would definitely be a channel for the toxin to flow into the country.”
Chen Huatao nodded." Alright then. You'll lead Team One's comrades to continue the investigation."”
"I'll definitely complete the mission!" Gu Qiang's face lit up as he saluted.”
At this moment, a burly man ran in from outside. It was the captain of the second criminal police team, Cheng Fei.
He ran to Chen Huatao and said hurriedly without stopping to catch his breath,"Chief Chen, I've verified everything that you asked me to. We followed the clues given by the murderer during the live broadcast and successfully found the body of the sex worker, Lu, at Emerald Lake. In addition, we've also found the relevant people involved in the rape cases.”
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Zhao Hanxue looked at Zhou Chao's corpse with extreme disgust.
Chen Huatao took a deep breath and said sternly," No matter what, Zhou Chao is still a living human being. Even if he is guilty, he should be handed over to the police and the court to deal with. No one is allowed to harm others under the pretext of justice. Such a thing must not happen! This is the cornerstone of our social order, and also the meaning of our existence!”
Everyone's expression turned serious as they agreed.
Chen Huatao glanced at Gu Qiang and Cheng Fei and said,"The court's live broadcast of the murder case will be the focus of our next phase of work. Your teams will work together with Li Bin's team. The three sides will jointly investigate and exchange information. I only give you one week.”
"Whoever finds out who Old Qian is will take over as the deputy director!”
When Gu Qiang and Cheng De heard this, their eyes lit up and they replied excitedly,
"Chief Chen, we will definitely catch the murderer!”
