Hearing this, Liu Tao frowned even more and said, "If that's the case, then the case will be in trouble."

Fang Mu nodded and said, "Yes, it's not a small trouble, but a big trouble."

After hearing this, Chen Shi was a little confused.

"Isn't it a good thing to lock down the murderer's activity range? We can conduct a platoon investigation in the Xiacheng Street area. I don't believe we can't find the murderer."

"hehe……"

Liu Tao sneered and said: "Investigation by platoon? Are you afraid that you have never been to Xiacheng Street? I have been a policeman in Baiyin City for so many years and I don't dare to do this."

Chen Shi looked puzzled and said, "Why? Is Xiacheng Street very big?"

“Not big, but really big.”

Liu Tao pushed away the information documents on the table, pointed to an area on the map of Baiyin City, and said: "Anyone who is a little familiar with Baiyin City knows that Baiyin City is divided into three areas, namely Shangcheng District where we are located, and The lower city area where gangs gather, and the lower city street with the largest population.”

Chen Shi looked at the map and frowned: "Xiacheng Street doesn't look big, it's less than a quarter of Baiyin City."

Liu Tao was even amused by Chen Shi.

"It doesn't look very big on the map, but do you know how many people live in Xiacheng Street among the more than seven million people in Baiyin City?"

"More than two million people."

"ah!?"

Chen Shi was shocked and said, "Why are there so many?"

Liu Tao curled his lips and said: "How many? Then you haven't seen Xiacheng Street ten years ago. Ten years ago, nearly one-half of the people in Baiyin City lived in Xiacheng Street, and this was still the permanent population and the floating population. More."

"Hiss~~~"

Chen Shi couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this, knowing how naive his idea just now was.

"Then what should we do now?" Chen Shi couldn't help but ask.

Liu Tao leaned back, shrugged and said, "What should we do? Cold salad."

Chen Shi looked at Liu Tao, then at Fang Mu, and found that Fang Mu was staring at the map in trance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Although Fang Mu was listening to the conversation between the two, he didn't pay much attention.

He has been thinking about what Xu Mo said before he fell into coma.

Through the investigation of Xu Lei's death, Fang Mu felt that the person who killed Xu Lei might not have been the shadow man, but it was unlikely to be Xu Mo.

If these two people are ruled out as suspects, then there must be someone else who killed Xu Lei.

So, the problem is back to square one.

What was the murderer's purpose in killing Xu Lei?

Interfering with the police's sight and consuming their police power and energy?

But if so, what is the murderer's ultimate goal?

Or is it that Xu Lei's death has nothing to do with the 404 case and is an independent case?

If this is the case, what was the motive of Xu Lei's murderer? Why is there Chen Xuefeng's blood stain on the murder weapon?

In addition, what is Xu Mo’s basis for believing that there was a fifth person at the scene?

The more Fang Mu thought about it, the more headache he got, so he spoke out all the questions that came to his mind.

After listening to this, Liu Tao and Chen Shi fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Chen Shi suddenly said: "Tell me, is what Xu Mo said true? In addition to the fourth person, there is a fifth person at the scene, and this person is both a bystander and a participant."

"(°ー°〃)Hmm!?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Mu and Liu Tao were stunned.

Immediately, Fang Mu's eyes lit up, he slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of that?"

After saying this, Fang Mu looked at the map again and started drawing circles on the map with a pen.

Then, he began to look through the information documents on the table.

After a while, Fang Mu said to Chen Shi: "Go to the archives room and get all Zhao Yihong's archives."

"Master, what did you think of?"

At this time, Fang Mu was completely immersed in the case and spoke in a very aggressive tone.

"Where's all this nonsense? Go quickly."

Chen Shi scratched his head, not daring to ask any more questions, and quickly went to the archives room.

Not long after, all the files on Zhao Yihong's case were brought over.

Fang Mu did not look at other information in the file, but picked up Zhao Yihong's confession and read it word for word.

The more he looked at Fang Mu, the more relaxed he became, and the more he looked at her, the more smiles appeared on his face.

After he read the entire confession, Fang Mu took a long breath and said excitedly: "Do I understand what Xu Mo's words mean?"

"(°ー°〃)Hmm!?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Tao and Chen Shi looked at each other.

Especially Liu Tao, he still doesn't know what Xu Mo said before he fell into coma.

After asking Chen Shi in a low voice, he finally understood what was going on.

"Did you find evidence that there was a fifth person at the scene?"

Fang Mu shook his head, took a long breath, and said, "No evidence was found, but I found some doubts and clues."

Immediately, Fang Mu recounted his findings, which were similar to Xu Mo's analysis.

The difference is that Xu Mo made his analysis based on the limited information he knew, while Fang Mu made his guess based on a large amount of information and clues and after comparing and verifying each other.

After listening to Fang Mu's analysis and speculation, Liu Tao was shocked and said: "If there is really a fifth person at the scene, then the Zhao Yihong case, the 404 case, and the Xu Lei case may have to be re-investigated."

Fang Mu nodded.

Different from Liu Tao's heavy mood, Fang Mu felt like he had parted the dark clouds and saw the bright moon.

Chen Shi's focus was somewhat different. He was thinking about what kind of monster Xu Mo was. In this case, he actually thought that there might be a fifth person at the scene.

Based on this, we speculated that the real murderer of the Zhao Yihong case and the 404 case was someone else, who was imitating the murderer of the 628 case.

"Is Xu Mo still a human being? How did he think of this?"

After hearing Chen Shi's words, Liu Tao and Fang Mu looked at each other, and then laughed.

The two people who had been quarreling red-faced not long ago now seemed like good friends, and this was also a true portrayal of most police officers.

When a case reaches a deadlock, quarrels are inevitable because everyone has different ideas, opinions, and methods of handling the case.

Now that the case has a new direction of investigation, Liu Tao naturally forgot about the unpleasantness just now and couldn't help but talk about Xu Mo.

"Xiao Shi, you've only been here not long, so it's normal for you not to understand Xu Mo."

"With such a large population in Baiyin City, there are people who can assist our police in solving cases, but not many. And there are very few people like him who have assisted us in solving cases many times, at least in Baiyin City."

Fang Mu interrupted at this time: "No, there is another person who has assisted us many times."

Chen Shi was stunned and said subconsciously: "There is another person? Who is it?"

Fang Mu was silent at this time.

Liu Tao answered: "Xu Lang, Xu Mo's father."
