“Oh …” Lee Bencheng yawned and said to Zhao Yu,”detective, have you found anything? If we continue to wait like this, how long will we have to wait?”
“Old Li,” Zhao Yu pointed to the bedroom and said,”if we let her go, does that mean she’s dead? Before this, she wanted to commit suicide without hesitation. Now that we’re gone, will she commit suicide again?”
“Yes, almost! “But not necessarily,” Lee Bencheng said,”I’ve explained everything to her. Maybe she can figure it out?”
“Zhao Yu, when did you become so wishy-washy?”
“I mean, there should be someone else among the Yakshas, right?” Zhao Yu said,”should we ask about the situation, or see if she can be a tainted witness?”
“Hmph, not only are you being fussy, but you’ve also become childish,” Lee Bencheng taunted.”You can’t be thinking of taking the successor to court, right?”
“Do you still not understand? Londee and his inheritor’s nefarious Empire are all above the system and law. They have no principles and will do anything to amass wealth. To deal with people like them, you can only use your fists!”
“Well …” Zhao Yu frowned and said,”old Li, have you never thought about one thing?”
“What is it?” Lee Bencheng was surprised.”
“If I were the successor, I would have torn you into pieces!” Zhao Yu said rudely,”although you are an excellent agent, how much is the information you have worth?”
“You killed londee. Even if you want to establish your might, shouldn’t I kill you?”
“As for you, you were locked up in the cargo ship’s prison. Although you were also severely tortured and often fed drugs, you’re still alive and well …”
“You … What are you trying to say?” Li Bencheng said,”they didn’t kill me because they wanted me to experience what it was like to be imprisoned. You have no idea what I suffered inside!”
“No, I still think that they’re too kind to you!” Zhao Yu shook his head, his eyes filled with suspicion.”
“Ah Xi, you’re not trying to say that I’ve already switched sides, are you?” Lee Bencheng said,”or am I the successor?”
“No,” Zhao Yu waved his hand and said,”I mean, I think … The successor knows you and is friends with you, so he didn’t kill you!”
“He … Showed mercy!”
“God,” Lee Bencheng shook his head and said,”you mean, the successor is someone I know?”
“Not only you, I know him too!” Zhao Yu said,”although the successor’s behavior is unpredictable, I have a feeling that he understands me very well. He knows that for sunflower’s case, I will investigate it to the end!”
“He predicted that I would look for Hidekazu, so he made a plan in advance …” Zhao Yu said.”In fact, such a person is even scarier!”
“Boiling the frog in warm water,” Lee Bencheng pointed at Zhao Yu’s book and said,”so, don’t sink too deep into it! If there’s a chance, let’s go straight to the point and solve the problem like how you did with londee!”
“Jiang Kui was the one who killed londee, not me!” Zhao Yu clarified,”if you link all the events together, you’ll realize that long di was captured by Xi Wei that year, and the successor should have already been in control of the whole situation!”
“I can still remember the time I met londee in the underground Castle in Seoul,” Zhao Yu recalled.”At that time, londee was very anxious, and I thought he was just eager for revenge!”
“From the looks of it, he probably felt the threat of a successor at that time, and there were already internal differences …”
“Furthermore,” Zhao Yu looked at Lee Bencheng,”you were able to sneak into londee’s residence and kidnap his family because someone was deliberately going easy on you …”
“Mm … Mm …” Lee Bencheng’s brows were tightly furrowed as he tried hard to recall,”now that you’ve mentioned it, it does make some sense. When I first barged into londee’s residence, it was especially smooth …”
“After that, you could have left, but you were blocked by them. I don’t think it was a coincidence!”
“Yes …” Lee Bencheng leaned back on the sofa,”why didn’t I think of this earlier? Londee was tricked …”
“So,” Zhao Yu said,”if we want to go straight to the point, it’s not realistic!”
“Londee was so crazy back then because Xi Wei had imprisoned him for many years and forced him to reveal many secrets. He wanted to find Xi Wei’s treasure.”
“However, if the inheritor had already taken control of his criminal empire when londee was imprisoned, then he must have transferred those important things a long time ago. So, the inheritor isn’t afraid of Xi Wei’s treasure at all!”
“Oh … That’s right,” Lee Bencheng said after some thought,”no wonder Xi Wei didn’t get much out of londee’s imprisonment!”
“Later, londee died, and the successor had great power, so he began bold and decisive reforms,” Zhao Yu said.”So, it was even more impossible for us to figure out his routine!”
“So …” Lee Bencheng said,”the sunflower case is our only chance?!” Damn it, if only we were more prepared today and could catch that mysterious shooter, that would be great!”
“Not necessarily,” Zhao Yu said.”The successor is not only smart, but also careful. The shooter might not know anything important. Our top priority is to solve the case!”
“If we find the murderer, we’ll be able to find a way to investigate the successor!”
“But it’s easier said than done!” Lee Bencheng pointed at Zhao Yu’s notebook and said,”what should we do next?”
“First of all,” Zhao Yu said,”we need to know how many similar cases have occurred in total. The details of each case, time, location, and characteristics …”
“Only by understanding this can we trace the murderer’s tracks back then and search for this person …”
“Impossible!” Lee Bencheng immediately said,”if it happened recently, we can investigate it through the immigration information.”
“But that was more than 20 years ago. At that time, the information was not even online. Even if we know his whereabouts, we can’t find him!”
“At least … We can figure out which country he is from, right? “And …” Zhao Yu continued,”the sunflower, the left ear … All of these are revealing information about Van Gogh. The murderer might not necessarily be a rich man, but an artist, right?”
“Oh?” Upon hearing this, Lee Bencheng’s eyes lit up,”you mean, the murderer is a painter? He used the opportunity of holding or attending an art exhibition to commit these crimes?”
“Why isn’t there such a possibility?” Zhao Yu said,”we just need to check the time of the International Art Exhibition, which matches the murderer’s track. Then, wouldn’t the murderer be easily exposed?”
“Um … Um …” Lee Bencheng thought for a moment and said,”if it’s so easy, why did the successor ask you to investigate? He should have found the murderer long ago, right?”
“I don’t know,” Zhao Yu said, his eyes deep.”Maybe the successor has other purposes for letting us solve the case?”
