“You taxi companies...
Hasn’t this part ever been investigated by the police?”
Lin Xian looked at Zheng Chenghe, who was focusing on driving with his face well-covered:
“Both the car that killed Professor Xu Yun and the one that killed that female scientist a while ago were taxis.
Have you drivers ever been investigated?”
“Of course,”
Zheng Chenghe answered while steering the wheel:
“But don’t think there are so many taxis in Donghai City, actually, every single one has a number, and now the newly replaced taxis all have real-time positioning systems.
It’s quite straightforward to investigate them, as their exact location at any given moment is clearly displayed on the platform.”
“I know about Professor Xu Yun’s case and paid attention to it back then.
But that taxi was a fake taxi, maliciously painted and modified, not an officially recorded one...
so they never found it in the end.”
Lin Xian watched Zheng Chenghe driving seriously and said nothing more.
...
...
After dropping Lin Xian off at the Donghai City Public Security Bureau, Zheng Chenghe went to pick up passengers and start his workday.
Lin Xian and his colleagues also quickly immersed themselves in their work.
The current major direction for solving the case was still in line with the plan previously set by Ji Lin—
[By foreseeing the next murder of a scientist at 00:42, then lying in ambush nearby before the accident, both to prevent the car accident and to secure the safety of the scientist, and intercept the vehicle to arrest the driver and the murderer.]
Therefore,
the current difficulty lies in how to accurately predict the next target of the murderer and the date of the murder.
After Ji Lin left, Lin Xian indeed had more freedom.
He had briefly entered Dream World once, only to confirm whether any changes had occurred.
But the result was different from what he had expected...
Old Donghai was still Old Donghai, and New Donghai City was still New Donghai City.
“Academician Lyon from Canada, no doubt you’re all familiar with him.
His research on room temperature superconductors shocked the world recently.
He will be attending an academic report meeting on the evening of April 12th.
After the meeting, he’ll have dinner with the leaders.
It’s beyond our control when it will end, and we can’t rule out the possibility of someone trying to kill him.”
Finally, the male colleague pointed at the last two scientists on the screen:
“These two scientists are coming for the ribbon-cutting ceremony on April 13th.
They are also working on hibernation technology, and their plane arrives at midnight on April 12th.
Therefore, they are in danger at 00:42 as well.”
...
Lin Xian’s female colleague was pondering with her chin resting in her hand:
“If it’s just about protecting them, that’s easy, they only need to avoid the time at 00:42, and naturally there would be no risk to their lives.”
“But...
if we don’t give the murderers the opportunity to kill, they won’t show up, and we can’t catch them.
These two things are so contradictory!”
“That’s right.”
The male team member who was presenting continued:
“I’ve been thinking these past few days, we always set up roadblocks at both ends and a containment net...
If the murderer is really well-prepared, then they’ll definitely notice our ambush.
Even if they have plans to kill that day, they will call it off.
So...
is it because our actions have been discovered, that’s why we’ve missed catching them every time?”
After the male team member spoke, the other members nodded in agreement.
Indeed.
