My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 143 The Net Woven by Chu Zhu (Second Update)
After a while.

In the conference room.

"Alright, the cooperation went smoothly." President Cai put away the contract, shook hands with Chu Zhu with a smile, and glanced at Chu Zhu's phone on the table with a slightly shocked look in his eyes.

He still couldn't forget how Chu Zhu had scanned all the contracts with the camera. Then, the AI ​​instantly evaluated the contracts and even actually pointed out some problems—

Is AI really that powerful now? President Cai was somewhat relieved that he wasn't in the legal profession... otherwise, he seriously doubted that he would be laid off in a few years.

"As for the energy battery factories you inquired about earlier!" President Cai pondered. The money had already been lent out, and Chu Zhu's rapid commencement of production would also benefit them. "I'll make connections for you... In addition, I can also help you with contract manufacturing! Isn't that a coincidence? Our bank happens to have business dealings with Biyadi..."

Li Quanyuan nodded repeatedly. In fact, compared to him, the bank had a deeper connection with these factories.

"Shall we schedule a time?" Chu Zhu asked.

"It'll probably take a day or two for Bi Yadi... but as for the factory, if I make a call, they'll be here soon. Would you like to have some tea here?" President Cai chuckled, "After all, the situation over there isn't very good."

Then, with a sigh, he added, "Now, having cash really means you can do whatever you want..."

……

An hour and a half later.

Inside the bank's conference room.

Chu Zhu saw a woman wearing a well-tailored, high-end bespoke suit; she looked to be under thirty. The suit was paired with straight-leg trousers in the same color, which made her legs appear straight and neat.

"Hello, President Chu!" After being introduced by President Cai, the woman's gaze fell on Chu Zhu, and surprise appeared in her eyes. She was obviously shocked by Chu Zhu's age... But she did not question him like a classic villain would.

After all, based on what President Cai described in his previous phone call, this person really does have a huge amount of cash flow.

As for whether the money came from a second-generation rich kid or from some other source, that's none of her business.

She said respectfully, "I am Hu Ruochu, CEO of Xihai Silk Battery Co., Ltd.! Your support for our factory's business..."

Chu Zhu didn't speak, but only glanced at Lin Xia.

"Let me talk to you!" Lin Xia immediately understood, opened her phone, and stepped forward to speak fluently.

At first, Hu Ruochu was somewhat distracted, focusing mainly on Chu Zhu, who hadn't spoken yet, feeling that only Chu Zhu could make the final decision. However, she soon found herself unable to concentrate.

With Z's assistance, the entire secrets of Xihai Silk Battery Co., Ltd. were exposed—its cash flow, suppliers, manufacturers, wage payment situation, and the fact that over 60% of its workers were temporarily laid off.

Some information was unknown even to President Cai, but Z would seize upon any clues left online, verify them, and ultimately draw reasonable conclusions…

Under such relentless pressure, Hu Ruochu's negotiation this time could not even be described as a mess.

As for Principal Li and Bank Manager Cai, they were utterly dumbfounded. They wondered to themselves, "Has technology outside become this outrageous?"

Although they both knew about AI, due to their age, they didn't have a deep understanding of it. Therefore, they were completely stunned by Z. Consequently, they developed some subtle misunderstandings about the average quality of AI currently available on the market…

at last.

"It's a pleasure doing business with you." Lin Xia smiled broadly, feeling incredibly pleased. With Z's help, he had managed to cut the initial offer to one-tenth of it—

Of course, this is based on the premise that there will be no large-scale layoffs at the factory, or that even if there are layoffs, all compensation costs will be paid by Chu Zhufang, and he will also assume a certain proportion of the debt.

Of course, Z obtained the information online!
What exactly is the situation with the Xihai Silk Company? Is it hiding any debts that even the Industrial Development Bank is unaware of? These are questions that Lin Xia needs to investigate in person.

……

In front of the bank.

Chu Zhu watched the two leave, stretched her body, and glanced at the sky... At this moment, the sun was about to set but had not yet set.

"Have a meal, then call the police!" Chu Zhu clapped his hands.

Half an hour later.

police station.

Chu Zhu waited in the lobby, his brows furrowed as he watched a blond, blue-eyed man arguing heatedly with a policeman in a white shirt not far away—just by looking at the white shirt, one could tell that this man's rank was definitely not low!

With his keen hearing, he could vaguely make out some key English words...

Something is missing!

"Initiate the search!"

"Mobilize the data!"

"..."

It was quite obvious that this foreigner was being unrealistic. While the police did indeed treat foreign visitors with significantly more respect than ordinary citizens…

But it hasn't reached the point where the police will listen to everything you say, like if you want to see files inside the police station or conduct a city-wide search of the police station.

To put it bluntly, what if you're a spy?
However, Chu Zhu didn't listen to the gossip any longer, because he was soon called into an office.

"Hello, I'm Xing Long, the head of the First Criminal Investigation Division of the District. You can call me Captain Xing! Or you can call me Section Chief Xing." Xing Long stood up, shook Chu Zhu's hand, and a hint of confusion appeared on his face. "So, what exactly did you mean when you said you had information about the murderer in the Nanyun Street murder case?"

Xing Long is searching for the murderer in the Nanyun Street murder case.

This case has had an extremely negative impact! A family of three—daughter, mother, and grandmother—were completely slaughtered…

Moreover, it was only afterward, when the stench of the decomposing body reached the neighbors, that they called the police and discovered the body.

Currently, Xing Long has gone through all the intelligence he could find, but he still can't find the slightest flaw... Based on the available information, there is a very high probability that the murderer committed the killing randomly... In other words, the murderer most likely has no connection with the victim's family!
This is the most difficult type of case to solve, bar none... especially since Nanyun Street is relatively remote and there aren't many security cameras! Moreover, several more days have passed.

Captain Xing felt so worried that he was about to go bald.

At this crucial moment, someone suddenly appeared claiming to have information about the case. Although he was somewhat suspicious... he ultimately decided to meet him!
“This is not the killer’s first crime,” Chu Zhu said bluntly. “His first real crime was the Lijiakou dismemberment case in Zhenhai City eight years ago.”

Opening Lightning Strike!
Xing Long's pupils widened at that moment. He almost doubted that he had misheard!

"Moreover, the killer wasn't actually killing randomly... The killer was extremely perverted, with a cruel and sadistic desire to kill young women, specifically those in junior high and high school! Of course, it wasn't a sexual desire, so we couldn't extract DNA from him to advance the investigation—he simply enjoyed torturing people..."

"Whether it was the random murder case in Nanyun Street or the dismemberment case in Lijiakou, the murderer targeted female high school students on their way home from school! Finally, he seized the opportunity and struck without hesitation."

All of this is true!

This information will be released through official channels after the case is solved.

"Moreover, the murderer is extremely cunning. After he locks onto a target, he will observe for several days to confirm that there are no able-bodied men in the family, only elderly people living alone and children, before he makes a decision... He will also observe the contact channels of the elderly people living alone and children with their relatives! He will not make a move if there are many relatives and friends and the contact is frequent."

Chu Zhu spoke eloquently, “He would torture the girls in junior and senior high school last… Usually, he would torture the parents or others beforehand to inflict great psychological trauma on the victims! He not only tortured them physically, but also mentally.” “Furthermore, before the torture, he would usually use various forms of language to induce the parents to ask the girls in junior and senior high school to take a leave of absence for a period of time! In addition, he basically targeted isolated families with no external communication channels… This also makes the cases difficult to solve! There’s no way to start.”

“…Wait a minute! Just a moment.” Xing Long raised his hand, his mind a bit muddled. After sorting out his thoughts for a while, he said with a blank stare, “How do you know so much… What exactly are you doing…”

Is this right?!
No matter what, this is just too outrageous!
What the person in front of me was saying sounded like a story he had made up...

What, is the murderer your friend? Drunk and bragging to you? Giving you such detailed information?!

After a brief moment of thought, Xing Long crossed his hands and rested his chin on them, staring sharply at Chu Zhu. "Kid, do you know how suspicious you are?"

"Let me introduce myself!" Chu Zhu said with a calm smile. He wasn't just offering himself up for no reason—he had already laid out a normal behavioral logic for himself before even entering the police station.

"Actually, I'm a consultant and part-time general manager of Z Intelligent Co., Ltd." Although he's not a general manager yet, Zhao Shao would definitely give him face if the police came to ask him.

"Our company has just developed a powerful AI that integrates data! I had a sudden inspiration and conducted a review of many cases currently on the market..."

After a brief pause, Chu Zhu continued calmly, "We finally reached this conclusion! Perhaps because the last case was eight years ago, or perhaps because it involved crossing city lines, the police couldn't connect the two cases..."

"However, the family circumstances, main targets, modus operandi, and even the methods of torture in the two murders are almost identical. This is the conclusion reached by AI! According to the information that has been revealed... the probability that it is the same murderer is as high as 92 percent."

Chu Zhu is not joking!

Instead, Chu Zhu went through Z's analysis... and Z ultimately came to this conclusion—

Although it is essentially Chu Zhu who shoots the arrow first and then draws the target—Z's ability is too strong, so he can really help Chu Zhu cover up this lie.

"?" Xing Long was somewhat doubtful.

"If you don't believe me, you can show me some of the cases!" Chu Zhu raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "After all, practice is the sole criterion for testing truth!"

Even if I dream tonight and it's confirmed that Z's announcement will cause a huge uproar, and that the future will tend to be about keeping it a secret... it doesn't matter if he does such a thing.

At worst, we can just have Zhao Shao create a stripped-down version of the AI ​​specifically for solving cases.

Furthermore, this connection with the police station will give them more room to maneuver in the future when facing potential infiltration of the Golden Dawn forces within the city.

Yes, Chu Zhu's intentions were not only to save Lu Keke and her daughter, but also a bold test...

If you directly seek refuge with the state, you will enter the ruins. So... where is this crucial point?
If he were to proceed with limited cooperation, and obtain some official assistance to a limited extent...

So, wouldn't things be better?
The enemy was simply too strong, putting immense pressure on Chu Zhu to fight alone. Having another ally… an ally who could offer even a little more support—for him, the future outcome might be vastly different.

Xing Long remained skeptical, but since Chu Zhu had already gone this far, he naturally chose to verify it.

And this verification...

"Success rate, seventy percent?!" Xing Long was shocked. A success rate of seventy percent seemed low?

But the key issue is that he deliberately concealed some of the information he provided... after all, the comparison was made with the random killing case in Nanyun Street!

Therefore, even if he possessed complete intelligence, the information he provided to the AI ​​for verification was incomplete case information that deliberately concealed certain details! The level of this was roughly equivalent to the Lijiakou dismemberment case and the Nanyun Street murder case.

Under these circumstances, being able to maintain an accurate judgment in seven out of ten cases is beyond terrifying... it's practically detective work!
After a brief silence.

When Xing Long looked at Chu Zhu again, his attitude had completely changed.

"Sir, Company Z, right? I... um, we hope to reach a cooperation agreement with your company!" Xing Long held Chu Zhu's hand tightly, looking at Chu Zhu, his voice trembling slightly.

"Captain Xing." Chu Zhu shook Captain Xing's hand firmly, her face sincere, her voice slightly apprehensive, "Actually, I'm a little anxious about this too!"

"Please speak plainly?" Captain Xing frowned.

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhu casually revealed her true objective.

"Because I have a friend who is also a high school student. She also comes from an isolated family. She mentioned to me last time that she seemed to be followed when she went out? Of course, she was very uncertain about it, and it could also be just a high school student's imagination and hallucination..."

“…Oh?” Xing Long vaguely understood the meaning.

"But unfortunately, not long after, I 'coincidentally' dug up this information! You know, this kind of coincidence is just too much... so I'm really worried." Chu Zhu sighed softly, "Tomorrow, she's going to Jinling No. 3 High School with her mother... so I was thinking, what if... what if!"

perfect!

Chu Zhu mentally reconsidered the logic and confirmed that it was correct.

Although the Chinese are mostly materialists, when faced with such a strange and frightening coincidence, it's hard not to overthink things.

After everything settled down, even in a post-mortem analysis, all that could be said was that Chu Zhu was very lucky. It wouldn't lead the police to suspect anything else strange!

“I understand what you mean! I will take this seriously.” Xing Long nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry, protecting citizens is our glorious duty as police officers! Tomorrow, we will send some plainclothes officers to follow along and keep an eye on things…”

Although he actually felt that it was impossible for the murderer to have targeted the mother and daughter who were going to school again!

After all, these two cases were eight years apart, and it is highly likely that the murderer has already fled Nanjing!
However, the crime-solving AI controlled by the person in front of him was simply too overpowered.

He thought that if he could escort the mother and daughter tomorrow and actually catch the pursuer, then everyone would be happy, and he would have fulfilled his duty as a policeman!
Even if the wanted criminal wasn't caught and it turned out to be a false alarm, then the cooperation with Z Smart Company should go more smoothly in the future.
After all, he's a general manager in front of me!
Yes, Xing Long's initial assessment is that there's about a 20-30% chance she encountered a stalker! The remaining 70-80% probability is just the young girl's imagination...

As for the real killer in the actual murder case?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

If that's true, he'll chop off his own head!

……

Nine o'clock at night.

Chu Zhu returned home and glanced at the intelligence Lin Xia had sent him—his investigation confirmed that the factory was indeed concealing some information…but it wasn't a serious matter! It was worth buying. Lin Xia asked Chu Zhu for his specific opinion!

After thinking for a moment, Chu Zhu replied with a message, "I'll give you my answer tomorrow."

Let's check in the dream first to see if there's a big pit!
After washing up, Chu Zhu opened her notebook again. After a moment's hesitation, she wrote her diary in a very minimalist way this time—mixing dream-like and real-life writing...

The diary uses two different languages ​​for encryption, and many events are simply abbreviated. This ensures that anyone who only understands dream language or only understands real-world language will have a very difficult time deciphering its true meaning!

"If problems arise again this time, then I really have no other choice."

Chu Zhu patted her cheeks and went to bed.

"Then... Dream, activate!"
