Chapter 792: Officially Taking Over

arison of Wu Lianyi.But Zhou Mengyu didn't say much, and Zhao Fenglin wouldn't point it out either.Since you've already made up your mind, don't delay. I'll arrange for you to meet tomorrow. You have..."It took Guo Jianan eight years to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but the other party had died from illness the previous year. The case at that time could still be considered unsolved."

Shui Ju also said with a hint of regret, after all, the perpetrator had perfectly avoided pursuit and died a natural death. Even someone with a sense of justice wouldn't be happy to see that.

I understand, I will try my best not to let Guo Jiannan bear these burdens.

The ripples nodded, then turned and left the cemetery, returning to their own single dormitory.

Because today is the funeral of her master, she can have a day off to adjust her state.

Back in the single-person apartment where the criminal investigation team lived, Lianyi first took off her wet uniform and went to the public bathroom to take a shower. Returning to the dormitory with only a single bed, a closet, and a desk, she started looking through the original owner's work records.

As a criminal investigator, the original body had a habit of keeping work notes. Sometimes when going out to visit or look for clues, or even when a flash of inspiration struck, the original body would record it in their notebook.

Ripples seriously reviewed the three work notebooks of her original body. This was very helpful to her, but there was no record about Master Guo Cheng'an and the dismemberment case.

She only found it in the records from a month ago. Because of the severe social impact of the dismemberment case, the case was handed to her master. Originally, the original owner was supposed to help, but because the Spring Festival was approaching and theft cases were rampant, he was pulled away to cooperate with plainclothes officers in apprehending thieves.

Because this type of criminal must be caught on the spot, even apprehended with stolen goods. As soon as their hands are not held, they will claim that the wallet, phone, etc., are theirs, and the stolen goods from burglary were given to them at a second-hand price by someone. At most, they are just petty thieves.

So when Guo Cheng'an was investigating the dismemberment case, he was also cooperating with plainclothes officers. The two never met many times at the police station. Every time the original owner wanted to ask a few more questions, he was directly sent away by his master, asking him to focus on his own tasks. Investigating cases is taboo to be distracted and indecisive, and he was also instructed to pay attention to safety.

Therefore, when he learned that his master might have been murdered or disappeared, he was completely dumbfounded. He even thought that others were joking with him. Sometimes, due to the needs of the investigation, it is normal for investigators to report to the station after tracking down suspects for a few days.

But a veteran of the Criminal Investigation Team 1 was very sure that Captain Guo had been murdered. Because before that, he received a strange phone call, in which Captain Guo's voice told him to track the mobile phone, and then the call ended.

But when they arrived at the location where the phone number was last seen, they only found blood all over the ground. Nothing else. After a forensic examination, the blood belonged to Captain Guo, and based on the amount of blood lost, it was almost certain that Captain Guo had died.

At this point, every member of the Criminal Investigation Team was seething with anger and began to track down Guo Cheng'an's whereabouts. However, they only found scattered body parts, and the missing head remained unlocated. To add insult to injury, the murderer even sent it directly to the police station. This was an utter disgrace for the Criminal Investigation Team.

But even if we were to pursue the perpetrator, we would first have to bury the fallen captain. That's why this funeral is taking place today. It was also at this time that Ripple took over the other person's body.

After organizing all the information, Lian Ri rubbed her temples and then picked up an empty hot water bottle, preparing to fill it with hot water.

As I passed the old wardrobe, a mirror in the middle caught my eye. The ripples reflected back a man, about 1.79 meters tall. Not short for his age, probably around twenty-six. He had a neat buzz cut, clear eyebrows and handsome features, with a determined look in his eyes. The only flaw was the dark circles under his eyes, clearly showing he hadn't gotten much rest.

However, Ripple understands. For the sake of finding their master's body, their entire team has been practically working non-stop. So after Ripple brought back water, she fell asleep headfirst, needing to rest up. Tomorrow, she would officially take over her master's case.

The ripples slept from 6:00 PM the day before until 6:00 AM the next morning. After waking up, she went downstairs according to her original body's habit and ran three kilometers, punched a set of punches, sweated profusely, then took a fighting shower, changed her clothes, went to the unit canteen for breakfast, and went to the Criminal Investigation First Team's office.

The Criminal Investigation Division One is located on the second floor, in a large office. The captain's desk is in a corner by the window, separated by glass for private conversations. The rest of the space is filled with desks, clearly indicating that the captain was the first one to arrive.

Ripples first sat in her own position, then glanced over the things on her original table. There was a stack of file bags, and there was also an open book on the table with some scribbled notes on it, along with a few pens.

Ripples glanced over them, they weren't anything important, otherwise they wouldn't be laid out directly on the table. She opened the drawer, it only contained some cookies and instant noodles, apparently a midnight snack for when she was staying up late.

Then ripples began to look through the pile of file folders on the table. These recorded missing persons, all taken directly from his master's desk by the original owner. He felt there must be clues inside, but he couldn't find his master's work notes, otherwise he would have made more discoveries.

When Ripple was halfway through reviewing the missing persons records on the table, a small group of colleagues gradually entered the office. They weren't surprised to see Ripple, who had arrived early.

Deputy Captain Zhao Fengnian was the last to arrive. Seeing that all the team members were present, he clapped his hands and said:

"Attention everyone, our new squad leader hasn't been appointed yet. The bureau has asked me to temporarily take charge for a while. We're all still a team, so everything remains the same. If you have ongoing cases, continue working on them. I've spoken with the middle unit, and our squad will temporarily not be taking new cases."

The ripple, after hearing this, immediately opened its mouth and said:

"Deputy Zhao, we'll handle the old captain's case ourselves."

"Well, I agree. Since we're all here, let's gather together and share our thoughts."

Zhao Fengnian said.

The office personnel didn't object and, taking notebooks in hand, went to the old captain's office of their own accord. They usually held meetings and discussed case details there; it was just that the old captain wasn't around anymore.

Inside staff Sun Shanshan had already spread out the meeting minutes book, first letting the ten people on her team take turns signing in. By the time the record sheet was back in her hands, Lian Yi was the first to break the silence.

"My master's death is definitely related to the case he was investigating. The murderer killed my master and disposed of his body in the same way as the dismembered bodies case that he was looking into."

When Captain Guo went missing, I had already combed through all the clues from his unsolved murder cases. There were no useful leads.

Bai YuNing rubbed his temples and told them about his progress.

He is also a veteran of the Criminal Investigation Team 1, in his early thirties. He has been with the team longer than the original team leader.

"What about the others Any updates"

Zhao Fengnian asked.tely changed."If that were true, then you'd be in even more danger.""Don't stop doing things just because they are dangerous. At the very least, we need to determine if this group has been invaded by...
