62: Chapter 061 The Hidden Eyes_1 62: Chapter 061 The Hidden Eyes_1 Since this morning, Zhao Yuanyi has been in a bad mood.
The reappearance of the throat-cutting killer in Yan City has pushed his anger to the breaking point.
However, it seems as though all the city’s police are just twiddling their thumbs, utterly incapable of discovering the real identity of this throat-cutting killer.
Now, the entire city of Yan is filled with fear.
Countless people are cursing the incompetence of the government’s leadership, who don’t even know who the throat-cutter is.
This throat-cutting killer has caused an enormous amount of damage to society and severely disrupted social stability.
With the City’s first-class officer absent, all the city’s work has fallen onto the shoulders of the second to fifth officers.
Zhao Yuanyi is one of them.
Despite being busy, he was happy about the increased responsibilities.
But now this incident has added extraordinary stress.
The emergence of the throat-cutting killer makes Zhao Yuanyi feel as though countless waves are churning within the city, putting him under unbearable pressure.
Now, the city not only has to reassure the fearful public of Yan City but also face the scrutiny of numerous bigwigs from the province.
Any slight misstep could impact their career prospects.
This throat-cutting killer has already committed eight horrifying murders in Xiangnan Province.
Not only has he caused harm to the victims, but he also invariably cut the victims’ throats.
This is a blatant challenge to the police and the government.
This man must be caught or killed, otherwise, the entire government will be disgraced.
However, the City Bureau has dispatched all their officers for the investigation, yet they have failed to find a single useful clue.
This made Zhao Yuanyi’s anger burn fiercely, and he was even tempted to suggest dismissing the entire City Bureau.
From early morning till now, Zhao Yuanyi has been contemplating this case, thinking about where to start.
He didn’t expect to receive a call from a stranger.
Generally, he wouldn’t answer calls from unknown numbers.
But this was his private number, and very few people knew it.
So, he answered the call.
However, he never expected that the person on the other end of the phone would be Lv Zhong, who claimed that he knew how to find the throat-cutting killer.
At that statement, Zhao Yuanyi shuddered, instinctively disbelieving Lv Zhong.
After all, Lv Zhong was just a high school student.
But then he reminded himself that Lv Zhong was extremely mysterious with extraordinary medical skills, even capable of curing cancer.
Last time, due to his disbelief, he almost harmed his older brother, Zhao Yuancan, and he himself might not have been able to get his addiction treated.
This time, how could he dare not believe Lv Zhong?
Besides, Lv Zhong possesses an unpredictable medical skill.
Even if he couldn’t help find the throat-cutting killer, Zhao Yuanyi decided to trust him anyway.
This was an excellent opportunity to deepen ties with Lv Zhong.
“Little Zhong, so it was you who called.” Hearing that Lv Zhong was on the other end of the line, Zhao Yuanyi became a bit excited, saying, “You can really help find the throat-cutting killer?
If Lv Zhong really could help find the throat-cutting killer, it would be of great assistance to Zhao Yuanyi.
The throat-cutting killer has already infuriated the province’s high-level officials, and finding him will be a notable merit for him.
After all, this culprit has committed several major cases in the provincial capital, managing to evade all the provincial criminal police.
“Alright then, Uncle Zhao.” Lv Zhong laughed, continuing, “I do indeed have a way to find the throat cutting man, but you must send someone over to collect some items from me and place them in the deceased’s home.
Can you manage that?”
“There’s no problem, your Uncle Zhao can handle it,” Zhao Yuanyi replied enthusiastically.
“Okay, then you just need to send someone to my school to retrieve the items!” After chatting a bit more with Zhao Yuanyi, Lv Zhong hung up and left the classroom.
In the Municipal Government, Zhao Yuanyi put down the phone with a smile on his face.
Thinking for a moment, he called his niece, Zhao Ziyu, “Little Jade, where are you now?”
Zhao Ziyu, who was patrolling around the neighborhood where the victim had been killed, answered the call a little puzzled.
“Uncle, Linglong and I are investigating the throat-cutting killer’s case in the Lixin Development Zone.”
For the capture of the throat-cutting killer, not only were the Public Security Police Officers mobilized but also the Armed Police, including Zhao Ziyu.
This revealed the seriousness with which the Municipal Government considered the throat-cutting killer.
Hearing Zhao Ziyu’s reply, Zhao Yuanyi immediately said, “Stop investigating for now and go to No.1 High School to find Lv Zhong.
He has a way to help us find the throat-cutting killer…”
Uncle, you’re not joking, are you?
How could he help us solve the case?” Zhao Ziyu gaped, shocked.
In her heart, she no longer doubted Lv Zhong’s medical skills since her father’s recovery was excellent.
But just because Lv Zhong was good at medicine didn’t mean he would be equally proficient at solving cases.
The throat-cutting killer has committed eight cases in the province without being caught, proving his cunning.
Zhao Ziyu found it hard to believe that Lv Zhong would also be highly skilled at criminal investigation.
Next to her, Dongfang Linglong looked somewhat puzzled.
Suddenly, she felt like the name” Lv Zhong”, which Zhao Ziyu kept mentioning, sounded familiar.
With careful thought, an image of a cool-looking high school student appeared in Dongfang Linglong’s mind.
That guy not only dared to beat up thieves but also dared to call her Dongfang Linglong “big-chested and brainless”.
“Could it be that kid?” Dongfang Linglong was secretly surprised.
The Lv Zhong she knew also happened to be a student at City No.1 High School.
Suddenly, Dongfang Linglong felt a hint of curiosity towards this mysterious Lv Zhong.
If the mayor deemed him important, he must be extraordinary.
Zhao Yuanyi knew that Zhao Ziyu was very suspicious, so he gave a wry smile and said, “Stop doubting.
It was that kid who called me today.
Since he said so, he must have the ability.
So, you better hurry over…”
Was it Lv Zhong who took the initiative to call and offered his help?
This made Zhao Ziyu dare not doubt anymore.
Lv Zhong had already ascended to the status of a mysterious master in her eyes.
Since Lv Zhong personally called to help, he must have a special method to solve the case.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ziyu nodded in agreement repeatedly, “Alright, uncle, after I report to the captain, I will immediately rush to City No.1 High School…”
After instructing Zhao Ziyu a few words, Zhao Yuanyi hung up the phone.
At this time, Zhao Yuanyi’s mind suddenly calmed down, and his original bad mood improved a lot.
“Although I don’t know how Lv Zhong will solve the case, since he’s so confident, your good luck, throat-cutting man, has come to an end!
Hmph!” Zhao Yuanyi made himself a cup of hot tea, feeling secretly delighted.
“Ziyu, Mayor Zhao wants you to find Lv Zhong from City No.1 High School?
Is he the slightly handsome student with a height of about 180cm who talks really annoyingly?” Dongfang Linglong asked curiously after Zhao Ziyu ended the call with Zhao Yuanyi.
Sister Linglong, do you know him too?” Zhao Ziyu turned her head in surprise and looked at Dongfang Linglong, asking.
Seeing Zhao Ziyu’s reaction, Dongfang Linglong immediately understood that this Lv Zhong was indeed that Lv Zhong.
Remembering how she had been scolded as “big-breasted and brainless” by Lv Zhong last time, a hint of embarrassment and anger flashed across her face.
However, Zhao Ziyu, with her carefree personality, didn’t notice this.
Dongfang Linglong nodded and said, “Yes, I do know him and know that his martial arts skills are quite good.
However, I didn’t know that he had the ability to solve cases.
Why would Mayor Zhao ask you to find him for help?”
That was what she found strange!
Lv Zhong was just a student, but he was able to make the mayor of Yan City believe that he had the ability to solve the case.
This was too miraculous.
“So, Sister Linglong really knows that guy.
However, I don’t know how strong his ability to solve cases is.
But, his medical skills are definitely at the national expert level.
My father’s gastric cancer was treated by him, and it’s almost healed now.
And my uncle’s illness…” As she said this, she suddenly realized that she almost revealed her uncle’s hidden ailment.
Dongfang Linglong widened her eyes in surprise, completely shocked.
That’s an incurable disease that is the most difficult to treat!
Unless you undergo a stomach-removal surgery, you might be able to live a few more years.
Dongfang Linglong also knew that Zhao Yuancan’s gastric cancer was already in the mid-to-late stage, which was practically fatal!
And now someone has actually cured it, and it’s a high school student?
This was too shocking for her.
“Ziyu, are you sure that your father was cured by Lv Zhong?” Dongfang Linglong looked at Zhao Ziyu seriously, asking somewhat shockingly and excitedly.
“Ah!” Zhao Ziyu suddenly remembered her family’s warning not to disclose anything about Lv Zhong.
At this time, she was slightly scared!
If Lv Zhong knew that she had accidentally revealed his medical skills, he might not treat her father anymore.
For a moment, Zhao Ziyu’s face turned somewhat pale, and after a while, she shook her head vigorously and said, “Sister Linglong, it’s nothing, I…
I was just talking nonsense, Lv Zhong did not treat my father…
No, Lv Zhong doesn’t know medical skills, he’s just a student, how can he know medical skills, you…
Zhao Ziyu said in a flustered manner, completely unaware that what she said was undoubtedly “hiding something”.
Dongfang Linglong looked deeply at Zhao Ziyu, said “Oh”, and didn’t speak anymore.
However, Zhao Ziyu didn’t dare to face Dongfang Linglong anymore and hurriedly said, “Sister Linglong, I’m going to ask our captain for a leave and go to City No.1 High School, I’ll contact you when I get back…”
After saying that, she didn’t wait for Dongfang Linglong to speak, and hurriedly left.
Watching Zhao Ziyu’s mismatched reaction, Dongfang Linglong’s eyes flashed with surprise.
At this point, she was certain that Lv Zhong was skilled in medicine, and his medical skills were definitely not weak.
Being able to treat cancer patients without surgery, this kind of medical skill could definitely be described as divine.
“If this is true, then my grandfather’s illness can also…” Thinking of this, Dongfang Linglong’s heart was suddenly filled with excitement, and for a moment, even the urgency to capture the throat-slit man softened a bit.
Because of this slight slackening of her mood, Dongfang Linglong didn’t realize that she had been marked by a pair of sly, lascivious eyes in the dark.
