My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 165 Howard and Reven are in the open, Chu Zhu is in the shadows.
Eight fifty-nine.

Chu Zhu walked out of the police station and stretched.

Z's appearance was nothing short of perfect—as Z, using the crime-solving software iterated from the Future Shenzhou AI data program, he completed the re-integration and verification of the entire police station's intranet intelligence in just ten minutes.

They even solved three long-standing cold cases on the spot, identifying the possible culprits in those three unsolved cases.

Furthermore, each suspect was marked with the probability that they were the real murderer, and their modus operandi was speculated based on existing information...

In fact, given the crime-solving abilities demonstrated by Case Z... the senior detective from the police station who appeared at the time stated that if he put in the effort, he could potentially achieve something similar to Case Z.

However, this big shot did not use this to belittle Z, but rather to express his deep shock.

Who is he? He rose to a high-ranking position in the district police station purely through solving cases, and is now known as a detective.

Z can do something similar to him, isn't that shocking? This could practically eliminate a whole host of low-level detectives—of course, this didn't make him too anxious. To be honest, this elimination is only theoretical! Nobody wants to hand everything over to machines!
He personally believes that Zhao Shao's previous speech made a lot of sense: With the Z-type crime-solving system, the workload of front-line crime-solving personnel can indeed be reduced by a lot, and the probability of making mistakes can also be reduced significantly!
While Chu Zhu was preparing to leave, Zhao Shao was currently experiencing a mix of pain and love, liaising, communicating, and negotiating with the police station...

Authorizing the police department to solve case Z is not a waste of resources.

Or, even if the police station currently authorizes the use of this information for free as a form of publicity, it can't be used for free in the future if it wants to be extended to other police stations. These things all need to be negotiated in advance!
Of course, these things are none of Chu Zhu's business.

"General Manager Chu, General Manager Chu Zhu!" Xing Long's voice rang out, sounding somewhat hurried.

Chu Zhu paused for a moment, only realizing he was being addressed as "General Manager Chu Zhu" after hearing it. After all, while he had introduced himself that way to Xing Long before, this was the first time someone had called him that…

"You're not going to continue spending time with your superiors?" Chu Zhu turned her head and raised an eyebrow.

"You're joking!" Xing Long gave a wry smile. "I haven't forgotten what I promised you before... Don't worry! Even if we fail to catch the murderer this time, we will still keep an eye on the area around the street for the next few days."

Xing Long was clearly trying to curry favor. Just thinking about the approving look his superior had given him earlier made his blood boil...

He never imagined that at his advanced age, with no chance of promotion and only waiting to retire... But life is so unpredictable; a windfall just fell into his lap!

He thought and thought about his interactions with Chu Zhu and how things eventually developed to this point... He could only sigh and say that fate is truly amazing!

"Then let's go."

"No, no, no, I just came out to call you! After all, you seemed like you were about to leave early." Xing Long quickly shook his head, glancing at the two policemen behind him, "We need to change our clothes first! Otherwise, if there really is a suspect..."

Xing Long shrugged, and although he didn't continue speaking, his meaning was clear.

Chu Zhu nodded naturally, then watched them enter and waited quietly at the door.

A few minutes later, his eyelid twitched.

A blond foreigner riding a shared bike parked it at the entrance. After locking it, he strode into the police station. As he passed Chu Zhu, he nodded enthusiastically.

Chu Zhu nodded expressionlessly, and the foreigner didn't seem to mind. Since arriving in China, he had met all sorts of people—some enthusiastic, some indifferent, and some even wary of whether he was a spy… Chu Zhu's attitude was hardly unusual.

Staring intently at the foreigner's figure, Chu Zhu narrowed his eyes and mentally uttered a name: "Howard Raven?"

Suppressing a surge of killing intent within him, Chu Zhu lowered his eyes, pondering an extremely serious question: "I have now rewritten my own memories."

Of course, his appearance hadn't changed noticeably at this moment. What he was concealing through memory copying was his aura—while memory copying could alter appearance, it was meaningless to Chu Zhu in the present...

He's not trying to be a spy or hide his identity!
"I shouldn't be detectable by that device now! But it should have roughly pinpointed my location before..."

"Should we then travel to one of the surrounding cities, unlock the memory copy, and draw the Golden Dawn's attention to the surrounding areas?"

Chu Zhu wasn't afraid of Golden Dawn, but he was currently in his developmental stage. He wasn't going to waste his time playing a game of cat and mouse with Golden Dawn at this stage.

"No rush, no rush!" Chu Zhu's gaze was deep as she suppressed the turbulent thoughts churning within her.

This is completely different from my last life. Last time, the enemy was in the dark and I was in the light, but now, the situation has been completely reversed!

……

9:37.

on the street.

Chu Zhu silently gazed at Lu Keke and her daughter walking in the distance. His eyes swept over the surroundings without making a sound, and he could see several police officers in plainclothes.

"Huang! Huang." Chu Zhu's mind raced. He made a decision, closed his eyes, and used his senses. Then, surprise and joy appeared on his face.

Even though his divine sense couldn't even seep out of his body at this moment, it was as if he had a radar installed in his brain...

The locations of all the living beings around him naturally appeared in his mind. He could sense them relatively easily within a fifty-meter radius; he could also sense them within a hundred-meter radius, but that would be more strenuous.

Moreover, he could clearly feel the gazes falling on him! And he could discern the emotions of others from those gazes—surprise, indifference, casualness… In fact, subconsciously, he could even discern the general character of these people through these emotions? Although it was quite absurd to be able to perceive their personalities through their gazes… the whole world became completely different in his senses.

"No wonder the 'good brother' called it a sixth sense!" Chu Zhu became interested and decided to walk with his eyes completely closed. Of course, he soon suffered the consequences, almost tripping over a brick and falling to the ground...

The memory ability is indeed quite strong, but it seems to be able to sense the sight and location of living things, but not inanimate objects like trees and bricks—this is a huge difference from the divine sense, which can sense everything.

Amidst sighs, Chu Zhu reopened his eyes and began walking normally again. However, the surge of information from his sixth sense, combined with his previously normal five senses, was initially disorienting...

As they continued walking, Chu Zhu could almost see the school, but she was still a little confused.

Why haven't we encountered any enemies?
Or perhaps, after the talks were over, they were targeted when they left the school? The intelligence at the time didn't seem to say that... Hmm?

Chu Zhu's expression suddenly sharpened, because he noticed that Lu's mother was saying something to Lu Keke, and then she pulled Lu Keke along, leading her into a side alley...

Just then, a strawberry vendor rode into the area on a small tricycle with a loudspeaker on it, constantly announcing that a box of strawberries would only cost five yuan.

This... could it be!
Chu Zhu moved forward quickly, while the police slowed down a bit. Again, they didn't know something might go wrong... they were just doing a quick check-in to relax!
The moment Chu Zhu entered the alley, she immediately sensed a fleeting, confused yet slightly malicious gaze fixed upon her.

Without even looking up, he pulled out a pebble he had previously inserted from his pocket and, following the target locked by his supernatural sixth sense, flicked it out.

"Ahhh!" The strawberry vendor was knocked to the ground, and a short dagger darted out from his sleeve.

Lu's mother stared in disbelief, turning to look at Chu Zhu in astonishment: "You, how could you hurt someone?!"

She was completely oblivious to the problem. As for the dagger that slipped from the vendor's sleeve... it's perfectly normal for a fruit merchant to carry a knife to cut fruit, isn't it?

“…Mom!” Lu Keke tugged at her mother’s sleeve, stopping her from speaking. She recognized Chu Zhu… Although she was also puzzled by the current situation, at least she trusted Chu Zhu…

The next moment.

Several men in plainclothes rushed into the alley. They were police officers who had seen Chu Zhu speeding away and realized that something was wrong.

Xing Long, who was in the lead, exchanged a glance with Chu Zhu. Seeing Chu Zhu nod, he still had some doubts, but he still waved his hand and rushed forward.

The strawberry vendor, seeing the plainclothes officer pull out silver handcuffs, his pupils contracted, and he frantically jumped up from the ground, attempting to escape by scaling the wall.

Now the police officers were truly emboldened. One officer, who looked like a recent college graduate, grabbed the vendor's trouser leg and forcefully pulled him down from the wall.

The remaining men rushed forward, pinned down his hands and feet, and handcuffed him tightly!
"Don't move!"

The strawberry vendor struggled desperately, shouting loudly. But it was all in vain; his hands were handcuffed behind his back! No matter how much he struggled, the handcuffs only dug into his flesh…

"...This, you, me! Could it be..." Lu Keke's brain completely shut down at this moment. Even a math genius couldn't figure out what was going on!
"Why did you suddenly decide to go into the alley?" Chu Zhu walked up to her, her brows furrowed.

"...Mom, she wants to buy me some strawberries! This vendor said they're sold out, but they still have some at home, and it's very close by! They asked if we wanted to go over and buy some." Lu Keke blurted out instinctively.

She hesitated for a moment, and just as she was about to ask something, she saw Xing Long, who had verified the merchant's identity, walking over.

"This guy's name is Huang Xiao! He did live in the Zhenhai area before." Xing Long flipped through the data on his phone, clicking his tongue in amazement. He had naturally downloaded the "Case Solver Z" app on his phone; just by taking a picture of Huang's face, the app generated a massive amount of data.

When he received the information from Chu Zhu yesterday, he had already reviewed the information about the Zhenhai case again.

Although the information obtained was incomplete, at least the killer's possible shoe size, height, build, and weight were known. This data was then entered into the police department's database.

Now, although the weight and body shape don't quite match up, everything else matches up... As for these two, it's normal that they don't match up! After all, so many years have passed.

As for Case Z, based directly on the numerous data points he entered yesterday, he gave a comprehensive assessment: the probability that this person is the murderer in the Lijiakou murder case is as high as 37%! It sounds very low, but this is mainly because there is not much useful information about the Lijiakou murder case in the database.

However, the probability that this person is the real culprit in the random killing case in Nanyun Street is as high as 60%!
Anyway, Xing Long was still a bit confused as he watched the AI's reasoning process in solving the case. He still couldn't figure out how the AI ​​had made these connections, but the thing was, what the AI ​​said did seem to make some sense...

"Never mind, let's take him back for questioning... Even if this guy isn't the murderer in the Nan Yun random killing case, he definitely has some kind of problem on his hands!" Xing Long said confidently. Otherwise, why would he run away as soon as he saw the police? Could he be a good person? And if he really is...

Captain Xing was momentarily overwhelmed with emotion. He looked Chu Zhu up and down repeatedly, finding him more and more pleasing to the eye—this man was simply his lucky charm, or rather, not his subordinate, but a benefactor!
"Then good luck to you all!" Chu Zhu nodded.

“Um, why don’t you go back… and give a statement?” Xing Long rubbed his hands a little awkwardly, and seeing Chu Zhu frown, he quickly said, “If you don’t want to, then… well, never mind. Go back and give a statement report. I’ll call you later to ask a couple of questions, and that’ll be considered closing the case. After all, if it really is… you did a good deed!”

"Do you have any banners? If so, I'll go." Chu Zhu became interested; he felt his collecting obsession kicking in.

"..." Captain Xing was silent for a moment, then said, "Why don't you go ask the person you're being targeted for the banner?"

"Little girl!" Xing Long turned his head and looked her over for a moment. The smile that had appeared on his face when he was talking to Chu Zhu earlier vanished, replaced by a serious expression. "If it's you, then you definitely have to come along!"

"...Huh? Ah?!" Lu Keke was completely dumbfounded. What murderer again, what being targeted... She actually felt that she should understand what the other party meant, but the problem was that this information was too terrifying, beyond her capacity to accept and bear... to the point that her brain crashed for the second time.

As for Lu's mother, who originally thought Chu Zhu was not a good person, she was now trembling with fear and dared not utter a single word.
