Chapter 242 I need your help!
Seeing that Xia Lili was still skeptical, Li Qihan paused and softened his voice unconsciously: "Not only was there no punishment, this operation..."
He deliberately dragged out the tone, "Maybe there will be a surprise."
"Based on your description of the murderer's brutal methods of committing crimes while hallucinating, he is very similar to the suspect in an unsolved case six months ago."
"Let's interrogate and confirm."
Xia Lili's eyes lit up instantly!
So he probably single-handedly subdued the cold case suspect?
Xia Lili was about to speak when she saw Li Qihan had already turned and walked towards the police car, leaving only a sentence: "Go back quickly, and remember to come to the police station tomorrow to take a statement."
"Okay~"
Xia Lili rode away on her electric scooter.
The jacket was very windproof, so she rode her electric scooter at high speed without feeling cold.
I could smell the scent of laundry detergent mixed with a faint scent of sunshine, obviously it had just been dried in the sun.
When Xia Lili rode her electric scooter into the main road, two warm yellow lights were always on in the rearview mirror.
The police car kept a suitable distance from her until she was safely merged into the neon-lit street, then quietly turned and left.
After Xia Lili returned to the police compound, she sent a message to Captain Li.
Then, he parked his electric scooter in the electric shed and put on the dust cover.
She looked at her electric scooter with great satisfaction, and felt that she should thank Pei Qinyue, so she called Pei Qinyue.
"Boss Pei, I've tried the modified electric scooter and it's a five-star rating!"
Xia Lili snapped her fingers and said, "To express my gratitude, I'll treat you to a meal. You choose the place, and I'll pay!"
However, Pei Qinyue's tone was not as lively as usual.
His voice was hoarse with fatigue: "It's okay, you don't have to treat me to a meal."
Xia Lili was shocked by Pei Qinyue's condition: "What have you done? It feels like your soul has been sucked away."
Pei Qinyue sighed: "Besides work, what else could be so tiring?"
"You actually still have to go to work?" Xia Lili was shocked. "I thought your daily routine was just flying around the world, eating, drinking and having fun."
Pei Qinyue immediately retorted: "I'm not like those dandies!"
"I will be in charge of the Pei Group from now on. There are hundreds of companies and tens of thousands of employees waiting for their turn to make a living."
Xia Lili was in awe of Pei Qinyue. She had never expected him to have such a strong sense of social responsibility. "I admire you!"
"Then when you are free, I will treat you to a meal to thank you."
Xia Lili added politely, "If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know."
——"Don't tell me, I really do have something to ask you!"
Pei Qinyue's voice suddenly rose, as if he had found a life-saving straw.
Xia Lili had never thought that she could be of any help: "What's the matter?"
"I've been busy preparing for a fashion dinner lately," Pei Qinyue explained.
"Every year, the Pei Group collaborates with major luxury brands to host a fashion dinner on a cruise ship."
"This fashion dinner will feature a star-studded lineup of guests, including renowned figures from both domestic and international fashion and entertainment circles."
Pei Qinyue was extremely distressed when he said this: "I'm really afraid of making any mistakes. All of the Pei family's competitors are watching us."
"The annual fashion dinner is very important to the Pei Group and can bring the Pei Group a business return estimated at hundreds of millions of yuan."
Xia Lili was skeptical: "So, what can I do?"
"Didn't you say you could tell life and death by looking at faces?" Pei Qinyue was excited: "I want to ask you to be the captain of this security team!"
Big, captain?
Xia Lili instantly imagined herself wearing a five-star general security uniform, holding an explosion-proof steel fork and sitting in the monitoring room drinking tea.
Xia Lili: "...Can you come up with a nice name, like Security Director?"
Pei Qinyue: "As long as you're willing to come, you can call me whatever you want!"
The more Pei Qin thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. "I'll pay you an hourly wage. Ten thousand per hour."
“Not only the training before boarding the ship is also paid on an hourly basis.”
He patiently persuaded her: "I will arrange for you to stay in the most luxurious ocean-view suite on the cruise ship."
"Food and drinks are all free and self-service on board, and there are performances and interviews with domestic and foreign celebrities every day."
"It can be said that everyone on board, except for the staff, is a big shot."
The conditions offered by Pei Qinyue were really tempting.
This extra money is really good. If she catches the bad guys, she can get an extra bonus. It can be said to be a win-win situation.
He finally dropped another bombshell: "Such a high-end fashion dinner, I and sports star Jiang Yun will both go."
"Your brother might go too. It depends on whether he can make it from overseas that day."
“You don’t have to worry about not fitting in on a cruise ship.”
"What are Director Xia's intentions?"
--"go!"
When Xia Lili heard Pei Qinyue's last words, she immediately made up her mind to agree.
Since her brother and Jiang Yun are both going, then of course she has to go.
These two people are under her protection, so no accidents can happen.
And she has never been on a luxury cruise ship!
Xia Lili was tempted: "When is this fashion dinner?"
"Half a month later." Pei Qinyue thought for a moment and said, "If you're free tomorrow, I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the cruise ship's environment and security arrangements."
I have to go to the police station to take a statement tomorrow morning. Xia Lili replied, "I'm free tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay, I'll arrange someone to pick you up." Pei Qinyue regained his vitality when he hung up the phone.
It’s safe and secure to have a reliable boss to look after your work project.
The next morning, at 10 a.m., Xia Lili came to the Yangcheng General Bureau and described in detail the incident that happened when she was delivering the takeaway yesterday.
After finishing the record, Xia Lili couldn't wait to ask Luo Xiao about the results of the interrogation of the murderer.
"The murderer's name is Ou Xing. He's an anatomy enthusiast. Psychological tests show he has an antisocial personality and kills randomly."
"And they were used to disemboweling their victims while they were still alive."
Luo Xiao couldn't help but shudder when he said this.
Xia Lili was curious: "Then how did he get into the victim's home?"
"Ximing Community is a resettlement building for people who have been relocated. Most of the residents are from the same village. They are more or less blood relatives and are very familiar with each other."
Luo Xiao expressed helplessness when discussing this matter: "Many people still retain the old habits from the village, leaving the doors open during the day when someone is at home, allowing for ventilation."
"The victim lived on the same floor with her eldest uncle, second uncle, and uncle. She probably thought that the people living on the same floor were all acquaintances and lacked vigilance."
Xia Lili understood that the people living on the same floor were all relatives and friends, and many of them would let their guard down, thinking that if they encountered danger they could just shout for help. However, sometimes criminals were hard to guard against and moved faster, so there might not even be time to call for help.
