heart poison

Chapter 54 Confidant

The indecent photos of Internet celebrity He Yitao and the rich businessman and the bloody photos of her tragic death attracted a lot of traffic to "Life in Los Angeles". Netizens flocked in, and the server was overwhelmed and collapsed.

"L.A. City Life" is an online media controlled by the city propaganda. All the content posted on it has been reviewed layer by layer. Once pornographic and violent pictures and texts are posted, they will be automatically blocked and cleaned up. If there is no accident, it is absolutely impossible appear on the home page.But now that the photos have been leaked, even if the website quickly deletes them in the background, some netizens must have saved them.These netizens who got the photos will immediately post them on other platforms - Moments, WeChat, and video sites. It won't be long before more and more people will see these photos that should never be made public.

Hua Chong walked quickly to Chen Zheng's office, pushed open the door, and Chen Zheng, who was on the phone, raised his hand at him.

One minute later, Chen Zheng put down the phone, "Are you here to tell me about the photos on the homepage of 'L.A. Life'?"

"What's going on? The website was hacked?"

"Well, someone just attacked their server and changed the content of the homepage after obtaining the permission. Now the website is closed and is being repaired urgently." Chen Zheng said: "You don't have to worry about the problem of the photo leaking, and leave it to other departments. The impact will be minimized."

Hua Chong asked: "Have you found the source of the attack?"

"From India." Chen Zheng stood up, "But the website is currently unable to determine whether that is the real source of the attack."

"I'll ask Liu Zhiqin to check it out."

"Okay." Chen Zheng nodded, "This clue is very important. The person who posted not only had indecent photos of He Yitao, but also photos of He Yitao when he died. 'He' must be related to the murderer. When He Yitao was killed, 'he' either At the scene, or through some means that we don't know yet, we got pictures of the scene from the killer."

Liu Zhiqin was sitting on Hua Chong's seat, typing quickly on the keyboard with his ten fingers, characters flashed on the laptop screen, and the dim light reflected in his eyes, making his expression much colder in an instant.

Hua Chong paced behind him, unable to understand what those characters represented, only knowing that he was trying his best to track down the poster.

"One of the 'meat machines' of the poster is in India, and the rest are all over the world. The 'springboards' used by 'he' are all servers of large enterprises. The 'backdoors' are very hidden, and some of them have been implanted with anti-tracking viruses. I only I can confirm that 'he' is in West Asia, and I can't pinpoint it right now." Liu Zhiqin turned sideways, frowning slightly, "But one thing I can be sure of is that 'he' was not the murderer of He Yitao."

Hua Chong was puzzled, "Why? It has been several days since He Yitao was killed. It is not impossible for the murderer to abscond to West Asia - but if so, the difficulty of arrest will increase sharply."

"This is a top-notch hacker." Liu Zhiqin shook his head, "Although I didn't confront 'him' head-on, I can tell from the 'meat machine' chosen by 'him', the 'honeypot' deployed, and the virus analysis. People are not simple."

Hua Chong still didn't quite understand, "Do top hackers know how to commit crimes?"

"That's not what it means." Liu Zhiqin explained: "In the information warfare team, I have dealt with hackers like 'him' countless times. 'His' methods are the usual methods of top professional hackers. They will not If you take the initiative to commit crimes, you will only use money to do things. As for how well you do it, it depends on how much the other party pays."

"You mean, the poster was just hired by the killer?"

"Yes. The murderer took the photos at the scene, and the murderer copied He Yitao's indecent photos in her notebook." Liu Zhiqin paced and said, "The murderer took the photos together with the words that need to be displayed on 'Life in Los Angeles'." Send it to the person who posted it, and the other party will invade 'L.A. Life' and modify the homepage."

Hua Chong thought for a while, but did not deny Liu Zhiqin's judgment, instead, he continued to reason, "Since this is the case, is there a way for us to start with the person who posted the message and find the murderer?"

"There must be a money transaction between them, and checking the flow of funds can be considered a breakthrough." Liu Zhiqin said: "But the troublesome thing is that the person who posted this post has a lot of anti-tracking experience, and I may not be able to lock him in a short time."

"But we need to crack this case as quickly as possible."

"I understand." Liu Zhiqin sighed, "I have already started to check E Zhihaolang, and the data in Zheng Qi's computer is also being restored. Compared with tracking the poster, the progress of these two items may be faster .”

Only then did Hua Chong realize that the burden he threw on Liu Zhiqin was too heavy.

"Sorry," he said.

Liu Zhiqin was taken aback, "Why do you say that?"

"I'm the leader of the serious crime team, but I threw everything at you." Hua Chong patted him on the shoulder, "I forgot that you don't have superpowers."

"I should be in charge of the Internet." Liu Zhiqin slightly bent his eyes and said with a smile, "It's also my duty to share your worries. If I don't do anything, then what am I doing in the serious crime team?"

Hua Chong pursed the corners of his lips, "Talk to me anytime you have any difficulties."

"Well, let me think about it." Hearing this, Liu Zhiqin raised his chin, "We haven't eaten that hoof flower soup last time for a long time."

Hua Chong didn't expect that he suddenly mentioned hoof flower soup, "Do you want to eat it?"

"Do you want to go together at night? I've inquired about it. His house is open all night. We'll just go for a late-night snack. We won't waste much time."

Hua Chongxiao: "I listen to you."

Just when He Yitao's photos began to go viral on social networking sites and were deleted, the animal hair found in her hair was determined to be from a German Shepherd puppy.

"Demu?" Hua Chong's first thought was the second baby who was sold not long ago.

German shepherds, also known as "black backs", are the most common combat dogs in the military and police forces. Their intelligence is outstanding among dogs, and they often work with the military and police to perform important tasks such as detonation, anti-drugs, and capture of prisoners.Although this kind of aggressive dog looks cute when young, it is a large dog after all. It is more ferocious than similar-sized dogs such as golden retriever and Alaska, and its price is higher, so it is rarely kept as a pet in cities.

As far as Hua Chong knows, Erwa's family is the only one that sells German Shepherd puppies in the flower, bird and fish pet market.Of course, looking at the entire Los Angeles, there are still many small shops selling German Shepherds, but since the case happened in Changlu District and He Yitao died directly in the market, the murderer avoided several surveillance cameras in the market, which shows that he is more familiar with the market .Combining all kinds of conditions, the owner of Erwa's shop might get some valuable clues.

The green light at the crossroads turned into a red light, Hua Chong stopped outside the zebra crossing, waited while collecting his thoughts, and couldn't help but meditate: "Conscience is eaten by dogs, conscience is eaten by dogs..."

This was what Liu Zhiqin said before. Although the speculation of feeding the dead man's heart to the dog sounds wild and untenable, it is actually not unreasonable.

The light turned green again, and he began to follow the flow of traffic.Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, he was startled, and slammed on the brakes.

Fortunately, the surrounding cars were not driving fast enough to cause no accidents, but the startled drivers gave him the middle finger one after another, and "national curses" were heard endlessly.

He turned a deaf ear, his eyes suddenly darkened.

On the day he went to Wanqiao with Liu Zhiqin, he passed by the flower, bird and fish pet market. He was in a bad mood and went in for a stroll.During this period, I happened to see a man coming out of the store with Erwa in his arms, and left in a hurry.The boss said that it was the man who bought the second baby, and the second baby is living a pretty good life now, eating meat and offal, but eating too much offal, it is not easy to digest...

Could the internal organs eaten by Erwa be the heart of the deceased?

Hua Chong increased the speed and went straight to the market.

At that time, he didn't realize that the man was strange, but after connecting the known clues, he realized that the man was tall and strong, which fit the criminal profile of Zheng Qi's case!

Erwa has been in the store for a long time, and other puppies were picked up one after another, but she was the only one who stayed.

Did the man buy it so it could eat the dead man's heart?

The homicide caused an uproar in the market, everyone was discussing the cause of the death of the "most beautiful lady boss", some were gloating, some were mocking.For viewers, the death of people around them may not be much different from TV dramas or novels, and they are just innocuous after-dinner conversations.

Life has to be lived, it's just that there is one less competitor, one "bitch".

Hua Chong went straight to "Jia Jia Meng Chong".The boss was affected by the case, and when he saw him, he was not as enthusiastic as before, for fear that he was here to investigate the case.

Spectators are like this. When it’s nothing to do with them, they boast and have nothing to say. When they face the police, they seem to be involved in it. Once they shut their mouths, they don’t want to say anything.

But if you don’t want to be willing, the police have already come to the door. People of the boss’s age know very well that “confessions are lenient and resistance is strict.” Whatever Hua Chong asks, he will answer honestly.

"The buyer of the second baby? You saw him last time. He is tall, a little dark, and he is a foreigner." The boss said while flipping through the customer information, "Wait a minute, I'll check."

Hua Chong walked around the store for a few steps, no longer in the mood to tease cats and dogs, "Has he been here since?"

"No, just that one time." The boss passed the information forward, "Here, this is the person, surnamed Wang, here is his address and mobile phone number."

Hua Chong took it over and saw that the information clearly stated: Mr. Wang, Tianshui Lane Commercial Village, Yungui Road, Fukang District, 139XXXXX678.

"Is there a problem with this person?" The boss rubbed his hands together and asked anxiously: "If he has a problem, don't let him know that I provided the information to the police. I have a permanent presence here, and he wants to find me. It's too easy to get revenge. I'm a small business with a family of young and old, so I don't dare to get involved with criminals."

Hua Chong comforted him a few words, told him not to mention this matter to anyone, and left immediately.

Fukang District in the west of the city is the least developed administrative district among the five districts of Los Angeles. Yungui Road is not far from Daoqiao Road. Almost all the houses were built in the last century. The floors are not high. Although they are dilapidated, they can still be lived in.

The commercial village is an eight-story residential building. Hua Chong had already sent the mobile phone number of "Mr. Wang" to Yuan Hao before he arrived, but after checking, it turned out to be an empty number.

Hua Chong didn't know what to do, the flower, bird, fish and pet market would not force customers to register, and this "Mr. Wang" most likely just left a number casually.

Since the mobile phone number is fake, the address may also be fake.But regarding "Mr. Wang", there are no more clues at present, so we can only continue to investigate.

Fortunately, there is surveillance in "Jiajia Mengpet". The police from the Yungui Road Police Station took the surveillance screenshots and walked around the business village, and found out that "Mr. Wang" really lived here.An aunt in her forties even gave her specific address: "He is in the same building as me, only unit 4, I live on the 6th floor, and he lives in the second house on the left on the 5th floor. Lou happened to see him go out for a walk with his dog. Tsk tsk, that dog of his is very fierce, like a wolf dog..."

Hua Chong was a little surprised, and rushed to unit 4 together with the police, and knocked on the door several times, but there was no sound of footsteps, only a weak barking of a dog was faintly heard.
