Wang Jun interrupted, "How about starting the investigation with the victim's acquaintances?"

"You can check, and focus on Chinese people who can speak Russian."

Zhong Yuemin said:

"The investigator just said there were two cups of coffee on the table at the scene. They looked fresh, not like they were there just two days ago. I can't say if the victim and the murderer knew each other or were just familiar with each other, but I think they could speak some Russian, since the victim didn't speak Chinese, so they had to communicate."

"There are quite a few people in Beijing who can speak Russian."

"I think the murderer is most likely a university teacher."

"Ok?"

Liu Daqiang and the other man were surprised. Wang Jun asked, "How did you know the murderer was a university teacher?"

Zhong Yuemin said:

"Isn't there a university textbook on the table? It's all in Chinese, and the victim doesn't understand Chinese. It can't be hers, right?"

"That doesn't necessarily mean he's a university professor. Just relying on a book... that's a bit far-fetched. And based on the murderer's previous methods, he's very meticulous. He wouldn't reveal such a big flaw to us, would he?"

"Thoughtful? I used to be, but definitely not now."

Zhong Yuemin said:

"Look at the scene. Fingerprints, footprints, even drinking coffee with the victim. It seems to me that this murderer no longer takes you police seriously. Because he hasn't been caught in more than ten cases before, his 'self-confidence' has grown. He may even be deliberately leaving loopholes, waiting for you police to catch him.

I also have this feeling that the murderer was not very familiar with this foreign woman. Maybe they met by chance, and after a few interactions, plus you know foreigners, they are more open-minded, so he took her home that night, and they had coffee and did it..."

Wang Jun said, "If that's the case, then why kill her? It's consensual, aren't you a pervert or something?"

"Captain Wang, you're right. This guy is a pervert, his mind is extremely twisted!"

Zhong Yuemin said:

"This is similar to the twisted personality of the murderer I analyzed earlier. He must have suffered some kind of trauma. He's no longer satisfied with his obscurity and wants to do something earth-shattering to become a celebrity. So he targeted foreign women. He knew it would be sensational. He brutally cut off the victims' breasts, just to showcase his cruelty and his fame."

"Yuemin, if what you said is true, this person is probably a psychopath. How could he be a highly educated university teacher?"

"Captain Wang, mental illness is actually quite 'luxurious'; not everyone can get it," Zhong Yuemin said.

"These patients are often very intelligent, have well-developed minds, and have many ideas. When they think too much, their minds can easily become confused. If they are strongly stimulated by some external factor, they are likely to become confused and unconscious, and eventually develop a mental illness."

Wang Jun said seriously, "Then I definitely won't become a psychopath. Don't worry!"

He didn't know whether to praise him for being smart or being clever.

Then he said:

"This murderer is provoking the police. You have no ability to catch me. No normal person would do this. He committed the crime on New Year's Eve, and it was a foreign woman. The means were so brutal. It's obvious that he wanted to embarrass you police officers. He even left footprints and fingerprints for you."

"Yuemin, now that you've analyzed it, it really is true. This guy is indeed very arrogant."

"He's not just arrogant, he's already inflated to the point of looking down on everyone," Zhong Yuemin said.

"What's that saying? The most dangerous places are often the safest. He thought you police wouldn't prioritize the investigation target at the level he thought, and ended up being too clever for your own good. Captain Liu, follow my lead. He's highly educated, likely a university professor, and speaks Russian. That narrows the scope. Plus, based on the victim's facial description of the murderer, we should have results soon. Even if this clue is wrong, I don't think it will delay us much."

Liu Daqiang also made a prompt decision.

"Alright, let's do as you say, Yuemin. It was the right decision to ask you to come and assist with the investigation. Look, now we have a clue. I think you're much more suitable for the position of criminal police captain than I am."

After staying here for about forty minutes, Wang Jun sent him back home. When he got home, Xiaobai, Yuan Jun and others were playing cards enthusiastically. These days, let alone the Spring Festival Gala, his family didn't even have a TV. Apart from playing cards, what better way to kill time was there? Zhou Xiaobai saw Zhong Yuemin coming back and hurriedly greeted him.

"Yuemin, come over and help me play cards. I've lost a lot of money."

Zhong Yuemin went over and sat next to his wife. He didn't play with money, but put notes on his face. The left cheek of this silly girl was almost covered with notes. Yuan Jun was almost the same. Zheng Tong and Luo Yun didn't have a single note. It was good. After all, she was a smart woman with a quick brain and was good at playing cards.

Zhou Xiaobai gave the cards to the other party, pouting and acting like a spoiled child.

"Yuemin, help me fight, otherwise my face won't be big enough to touch it."

Zhong Yuemin took it and said, "Okay, let's see how your man will avenge you."

"Ok!"

Zhou Xiaobai leaned towards Yuemin, focusing on the idea that the husband and wife should follow each other.

"Hey, hey, I'm talking to you two!"

Yuan Jun said:

"Can you please stop being so annoying? You're affecting my playing cards, and you're even hiring outside help. That's really unkind. This isn't bullying."

Luo Yunle said:

"Yuan Jun, you've lost like a fool. Xiaobai is from the same family as you. Even with Yuemin's help, it's not enough. You're still asking for external help. Look behind you. You don't have enough external help. Zheng Tong and I didn't say anything."

Yuan Jun turned around and looked at the three dog-headed "military advisors" behind him, Ermao, Hou'erpi, and Ning Qun, and was unhappy.

"Damn it, they say three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, but that's not true. I feel like I'm playing chess with a loser, and the more I play, the worse I get. You three are giving me nothing but bad advice, damn!"

He was punched by three people behind him. This kid was a bit ungrateful. He was bad at playing cards, but he blamed them. The game continued. Although Zhong Yuemin was not a master at playing cards, he was not bad either. After a few rounds, Yuan Jun was at the bottom of the table every time. His whole face was almost covered with stickers. Zheng Tong and Luo Yun also had a few stickers on their faces. He also had three stickers on his face. The least, it was not bad.

Zhou Xiaobai acted like a little fangirl, blinking her big eyes, as if to say, Yuemin, you are so awesome.

Yuan Jun gave way to Ermao, offering advice from the side, and said casually:

"Yuemin, what's the case over there? Has it been solved?"

"You think solving the case is just playing house? It's not that easy. This is confidential and cannot be disclosed."

"Look at you, we're all family, you wouldn't tell anyone about it. Tell us."

"Yes, tell me..."

He was annoyed by the questions, but there was nothing he could do. He thought that if Captain Liu followed his suggestions and investigated the case, the murderer should be caught immediately. So there was no harm in talking about it, just keep it simple.

The frying pan is going on.

"Oh my god, this is so perverted!"

"Yuemin, is that girl pretty?"

"What a pity! He has no sympathy for women at all."

Yuan Jun asked a very philosophical question:

"Yuemin, is that thing big?"
