149. Detective Elwood

At 9:43 a.m. on Sept. 13, a witness found Abbas's body in an alley about 2 kilometers from Aaron University.

The deceased was covered in scars and appeared to have been severely tortured before death, and the body was deliberately posed as a profane gesture after death.

After spending a great deal of time gathering information, Aaron discovered that the scene of the deceased's dying was deeply religious, and that they had only seen descriptions of his posture in one place.

That is the book "The God Is Here" by the famous folklorist Hervendelenge.

It records many barbarian tribes and ancient families and esoteric religions that they once held, and still do, religious ceremonies dedicated to the gods they believed in.

Among them is a reference to a method of sacrifice used by a minor god that no one believed in.

The death of an outstanding student at Aaron University is not a trivial matter, and after his death, what the murderer did to his body is even more intolerable and intolerable to this civilized and advanced capital.

Elwood is one of Aaron's best detectives and one of the old sheriff's most trusted men.

But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel anxious about this case.

The man was over thirty years old, the perfect age for intellectual and physical activity, and instead of wearing a regular uniform, he wore the coat worn by old-fashioned detectives, capable of carrying and concealing weapons and tools, and underneath the coat a vest that made it easy to move.

This was specifically approved by the old sheriff, as Ellwood believed that uniforms represented restraint and influenced the first impression of others, and that he was able to get more information from others when they subconsciously did not think of him as a police detective.

Of course, the badge should be carried in the inside pocket of the coat, which is the best weapon against those restless guys.

The firearm also has to be close to the waist, hidden in the blind corner of the line of sight covered by the coat, and it must be guaranteed that it can be drawn quickly whenever and wherever it is, and he is the best detective not only because he has many flashes of inspiration that others seem to be inexplicable, but also because he has the skills to deal with most criminals head-on.

Melee combat, spearmanship, modern swordsmanship, he can easily control.

But Agent Elwood, who has subdued countless heinous criminals, is still sick and horrified after witnessing Abbas's death.

"Professor Anthony, how well do you know Mr. Hevendelenga. ”

Elwood was asking Mr. Anthony, who had been invited by the sheriff early in the morning, and it was he who immediately recognized the meaning of the deceased's gesture.

Anthony, dean of the School of History, said:

"Officer Elwood, I hired Professor Herwin personally, but I don't know much about his past, and it's hard for a scholar like him to settle in one place for a long time, but to travel to different places from time to time to conduct their own research, so I don't have any friends who know Professor Herwin very well.

"But I can assure you that Professor Hervin would grieve for Abbas if he saw him die. ”

Elwood routinely asked:

"Professor Anthony, do you think it is possible that this Mr. Herwin is out of some kind of perverted psychology to perform the rituals described in his book?"

Elwood didn't really suspect Hewen too much, because it was unlikely that such a famous person would do such a self-destructive thing, and if he really killed someone and wanted to perform some kind of ancient ritual, then he didn't have to record this sacrifice in his book, and whether just dumping the body at a distance of two kilometers from Aaron's university was a bit too underestimating Aaron's good detectives.

However, the possibility of committing crimes cannot be completely ruled out, and some serial murderers who are influenced by excessive spoiling or domestic violence in their childhood may have a desire to express their inner pursuits to the world.

And there will even be some people who will have an almost crazy confidence in their own criminal methods, and they will deliberately leave a lot of obvious loopholes and clues to provoke the police, because they think that everything they do is seamless, even if they tell the police that they are the murderers, these ignorant mortals will not be able to find out the evidence of their own crimes.

Ellwood has personally arrested many of these prisoners, and at the last minute they tend to be incredulous or highly praised for their capture.

Ellwood would only spit in their faces and tell them that his vaunted modus operandi was nothing more than a shoddy pediatric in his own eyes.

Their annoyed appearance often gave Elwood some comfort, because he didn't make the scumbags feel recognized.

Professor Anthony swears at the moment:

"I believe in Professor Herwen's character, he could not have behaved like a demon, and from the time I spent with him and the reading of his books, I can understand him to some extent, and he is by no means the kind of person who would be complacent with evil deeds and violence. ”

Elwood asked:

"Was he overly modest?"

Anthony shook his head:

"No, he's a very confident guy. ”

Elwood was somewhat relieved, for over-humility was often one of the extremes of arrogance, and most murderers had the arrogance to treat life as a worm.

For them, someone else's life is just a consumable for self-gratification or "artistic" expression.

The murderer must have an extraordinary artistic attainment, because the final scene of the deceased is not only a bloody dissection and dismemberment, but also to a certain extent, it can make people feel the fear they want to convey from the bottom of their hearts.

It was enough to make everyone feel extremely disgusted, disgusted, disgusted, and unspeakably intense, a blasphemous painting against humanity.

The moment he saw the body, Elwood's first instinct turned out to be to destroy it so that no one could touch and witness the sight again.

He's not the only one thinking so.

Of course he couldn't, but he almost did it when the old sheriff stopped him.

More important than destroying their work is to capture this incomparably evil murderer, which is their responsibility.

The murderer must have enjoyed the moment when he finished his work, and he dedicated the scene to everyone in the city, so that all who pass by can enjoy it as the sun rises.

Perhaps before the police took over the scene, the killer had been wandering around the spot where the body was found, enjoying the expressions on everyone's face when they saw his artwork.

No, maybe he was still near the scene of the crime, using the telescope to observe the emotions and reactions of the police officers present.

Elwood took a deep breath:

"Professor Anthony, I would like you to let me meet this Mr. Herwin, I feel we need him to help solve the case. ”
