In an office of the New York City Police Department, the office is already full of various materials. Du Pingping is immersed in countless materials, immersed in hard reading. Due to the relationship between the DPRK and China who are good officials, it is easy for Daniel to get a special approval from the director of the bureau, and Du Pingping is specially authorized to conduct an investigation into the case. In fact, the process sequence is the proposal of the guest expert that Frank said. According to the explanation, this is like an attempt, and Du will help the city of New York with the investigation of the case for a fee. While the case is being solved, the proposal made earlier this year to bring in specialized agencies and special experts for the NYPD is being tested and tested.

Of course, these official statements don't matter to Du Pingping, Du Pingping is just fulfilling a promise to Susan. Susan is really a little girl who can use human favors, and she really sold the favor of Du Fair in her hands for a sky-high price. Thinking of this, Du Ping was also a little helpless.

Susan finally saw that the real investigation is not as exciting as in movies and TV series, and the so-called detective is more like an unlucky child who studies hard and prepares for exams. A full twelve hours passed, and Du Pingping continued to bury his head in those heavy cases. Except for the first few hours, Susan still had some excitement, and after a dozen hours passed, Susan only felt deeply depressed and bored.

Grandpa was drinking whiskey from where he didn't know where he had gotten it, and as if he was at home, he was starting to get confused with a glass in his hand. At this time, Daniel happened to walk in again to check on the progress.

Susan, "Are you all like this?"

Daniel, "What?"

Susan, "It's boring!"

Daniel, "Girl, do you think that solving the case is really like in the movie, and your blood is abnormal? It is too normal to find a possible clue from hundreds or thousands of various investigation files." In the last Central Garden car bombing case, 700 pieces of information were sent from the field and asked them to read all of them within two hours, and find out only one correct answer! Sister, being a police officer, especially a police detective, is not so easy, not to mention hard work, but also facing tremendous pressure and distrust from the outside world. This is the real police. ”

When Susan nodded, she realized that she didn't know when Grandpa had opened his eyes.

Grandpa, "There aren't many people like this kid who are so obscure. Most of the crimes are either gangsters, and the murderer can't wait for the whole world to know that he did it. If you don't have a hot head and do something, you won't be able to run, and you will soon be caught. Very few will actually plan to kill, and most of them will soon be caught because of their lack of experience and planning. The rest of these things are even more difficult, especially if they can't be solved for several years. In general, it is difficult to catch the murderer unless there is special luck. ”

Susan, "The father also said that the police will definitely solve the case, please rest assured." ”

Grandpa, "Do you want to say, citizens, we can't handle this person, but it doesn't matter, he kills 1 or 2 people a year, and it's okay to kill him." This will not only displease the mayor, but also cause panic among the public. So politics is all about what to say when it's time to say something. It has nothing to do with whether the words are correct or not, right or wrong, true or false. ”

At this time, Du Ping had already raised his head to look at Daniel. Reading these files of the historical case solving process left by the New York City Police Department over the years of careful investigation has helped Du Ping a lot. Although the New York City police have not solved this serial murder incident, the various investigations, researches, analyses, and investigations of this incident have actually gone very, very detailed and serious. Du Pingping believes that the reason why they have not solved the incident is not that they did not work hard enough, but that they lacked a little luck.

Daniel, "Still no progress?"

Du fair, "No! ”

Daniel, "What is it?"

The huge, movable whiteboard in the office was pulled over, and it had long since become a summary board of information and materials related to Du's previous cases, covered with photographs and stickers with key information.

Du Pingping pointed to the photos of the scene that were all over the place.

"How do you feel?"

Daniel shook his head, and Du Fair then looked at Grandpa Reagan Sr.

Grandpa, "You're saying there's something wrong with them?"

"It's very wrong! Do you feel like that?"

Grandpa, "I'm old, and I don't feel as sharp as you young people. These photos look like there is some uncomfortable feeling, but there is discomfort, which I don't know yet. ”

Du Ping looked at Daniel, Daniel stepped forward to look at it seriously, shook his head, and turned his head to look at Du Ping again. Du Ping looked at Susan, who quickly shook her hand, indicating that she didn't want to see the horrific photos of corpses at the scene.

"This is a feeling of incongruity, just like the feeling of rice being made into raw rice and painting being painted as a dog's tail and mink, which is very incongruous." ”

Du Pingping quickly divided the scene photos on the whiteboard into two pieces, left and right.

"Doesn't that feel better?"

Daniel looked at it, not knowing if it was time to nod. Grandpa nodded while sipping wine.

The victim on the left was cut off his fingernails one by one, beaten, and hanged with humiliating objects such as belts, which shows that the murderer is an arrogant, proud, strong, and arrogant, cold-blooded, and even hateful guy who hates women. None of the victims were sexually assaulted, indicating that this guy may still have male dysfunction. ”

Du Ping pointed to the photo group on the right.

"This man is cautious, careful, careful, organized, and remorseful, and when he handles the corpses, he arranges the clothes, hair, and faces of the deceased, and puts them in a posture of prayer, probably hoping that they will go to heaven and receive God's love." Perhaps, he will also give a pre-mortem eulogy for the deceased. ”

Du Pingping turned his face towards the people.

"So I don't think it's a case done by one person, it should be two people, one arresting, humiliating, torturing, and killing, and the other disposing of the body." Just as one is a master and the other is a servant. ”

After Du Pingping finished speaking, he quietly looked at a few people and didn't speak again.

Susan, "That's it?"

"That's it." ”

Susan, "With that guess, how are we going to arrest someone?"

Du Ping didn't answer, just looked at Daniel to the side.

Daniel, "There seems to be a problem. ”

Du Fair directed Daniel's thoughts, "Yes, there is one more question. ”

Daniel, "If that's the case, then the first one can't do one case a year." ”

Du Pingping, "Yes, this kind of person has no remorse, killing people will make him excited and happy, he should not be able to control his violent heart, as long as he kills the beginning, he will continue to commit crimes until he is destroyed." So what will be able to control yourself, only do it once a year, and be brutal from the first time, not a novice. ”

Daniel, "There must be a reason for this!"

"There must be a reason for this." ”

Daniel, "Because of Thanksgiving? Only on Thanksgiving does he have a chance to come out, or a time to go back to New York." ”

"But even in other places, it is impossible to restrain one's impulses." What was it that restrained his impulse?"

Daniel, "It's a profession! Yes, it's a profession! It's like a prison, so he has to follow the rules, and there is no room for any strange behavior and time. ”

"Then every year Thanksgiving is because of ......"

Daniel, "Holiday. Thanksgiving holidays have brought him back into society. ”

"Then what is the reason for his crime? Every criminal will have a reason to commit a crime, even if he is a murderer." ”

Daniel, "It's a male dysfunction! This makes him very hateful to women, and he can be ridiculed by girls when he was a teenager, which leaves a deep psychological shadow on him!"

"But there will also be incentives. People have been quiet for a year, and they can't go crazy as soon as they are released. ”

Grandpa suddenly raised his hand.

Grandpa, "Can I join the discussion?"

"Of course you can." ”

Grandpa, "As a father and an elder, I used to like to arrange blind dates for single children who are not usually at home during the Thanksgiving holiday. Just like Frank, I met Linda at the blind date event I arranged. ”

Grandpa's words were like the finishing touch, helping Daniel connect all his thoughts in one fell swoop. Daniel's eyes began to brighten with excitement.

Daniel, "That is, as soon as he comes back, he will be arranged by his elders on a blind date, and after the blind date, he will fall into madness due to his physical defects." At this time, as long as his car is parked on the side of a street where a street girl is standing, a street girl will come to talk to him. ”

Grandpa simulated the pronunciation of a street girl, "Friend, do you want to play?"

Daniel, "He just opened the door and the woman would get in." ”

Grandpa, "I'll be tortured and killed by him when it's over." ”

Daniel, "I know how I found him!"

…………………………

The police are on the move, and soon according to the conditions of 20-30, male, Caucasian, active duty military or similar, only Thanksgiving will come back for vacation every year, family conditions are good, there is a house with good sound insulation, etc. The figure of one person was quickly investigated.

Lind Thallesman, 27, active-duty Marine Corps officer, middle-class, and experienced fighting in Ifuhan......

There's nothing Susan thought might be difficult and still clueless. Life is like this, when you can't find a clue, you will be entangled, and when you find a clue, you will also be entangled.

In Frank's office, Daniel and Henry stood in front of his large office, straight and serious, and Frank would not be embarrassed by the fact that Daniel was his son. Everyone in the police department knows this, so no one thinks it's strange yet.

Frank, "Are you sure?"

Daniel, "Based on the conditions we have, this person is the most likely. ”

Frank, "Do you know that his father is a district judge, and that his mother is a well-known lawyer?"

Daniel, "Yes. ”

Frank, "You know? Your plan, based on the evidence you have now, makes it impossible to get a search warrant. ”

Daniel, "Yes. ”

Frank looked at the information Daniel had just handed in and looked at it very seriously. When I looked up again, my gaze was much firmer. Frank looked at Henry next to him, and Henry immediately consciously applied to leave. Frank spoke again this time.

Frank, "Lind Celesman, a child of the Celesman family, a smart, good, proud child. Daniel, do you know that if we do this, it will represent a declaration of war against the Celesman family? The Celesman family is a family with the same history and talent as the Reagan family. ”

Daniel, "Yes, but our Reagan motto is: Always be on the side of the law." Isn't that so?"

"Yes, that's right! I'm glad you understand what our Reagan family principles are, but you still won't be able to really catch that little Thoresman." Got it?"

Daniel, "I'll do my best!"

"It's not enough to do your best! If there is a war, we must win! And if there is a war, we must also conform to the rules of the ancient families......"

…………………………

In the office of the principal of the Santa Maria Church High School in the eastern parish of the city, the elder Reagan sat familiarly across from the principal, like an old friend, in front of the Caucasian man, who was also in his sixties. Behind the elder Reagan stood Susan and Du Fair, who had come to get some information and information about Lynde Thlesman. Lind Thallesmann's life trajectory is very regular: school, military. Compared with the army, the information and materials of the school are still relatively easy to find, so the old Reagan and his party came here.

Grandpa, "Bavar, how long have we not met?"

Headmaster, "Old Reagan, it's been a few years. Just say you're retired and recuperating at home. Why are you so free, come here to see me. ”

Grandpa, "There is nothing free and empty, and it is really difficult to find that there is nothing to do when you retire!"

Headmaster, "So come out and see an old friend?"

Grandpa, "Actually, I want your help with something." ”

Headmaster, "What's the matter." ”

Grandpa, "I heard that the son of the Celesman family used to go to school here. ”

Headmaster, "Son of Judge Celesman's family?"

Grandpa, "Yes." ”

Headmaster, "Yes. ”

Grandpa, "I want to know about his school days, especially some things that are hidden, we all know these things, and we have done it, but there should still be archives within the school, I want to see it." ”

Principal, "I'm sorry, old Reagan! This will affect the image and trust of the church in the public. You know, the church has not had an easy time in the past two years, and three church schools have closed their doors in the past two years. ”

Grandpa, "The Reagan family has always been an old friend of the church, always, hasn't it?"

Headmaster, "Old Reagan, you're embarrassing me. ”

Grandpa, "Actually, I came to you just to take a shortcut." You have to know that if the police are serious, it is impossible for them to find out everything. And I, as an old-school person, prefer to witness the friendship of some friends along the way. ”

Headmaster, "Old Reagan ......"

Grandpa, "It's okay, if we're embarrassed, we can leave." You see, none of the people we came were policemen. But not necessarily next time. ”

Headmaster, "Is this a threat?"

Grandpa, "I think it's the sincerity and sincerity of the relationship between friends. ”

At this time, old Regan, who was sitting in front of the powerful headmaster, had the appearance of an old and confused old drunkard. He was like an old and cunning old fox, kind and friendly, and he had used the blade that did not see the blade to play with the little tangles that had been smoothed out of his opponent. The headmaster Bardell was very entangled, really entangled, but after the old Reagan showed that he was really going to go, he finally rang the bell on the table.

…………………………

In the basement of Santa Maria Church High School, this is a cold, gloomy underground space lined with rows of wooden shelves, all of which are boxes one by one. On a small wooden table in the middle hallway, lined with shelves, Du Ping was constantly searching for information.

I'm looking for information again!

Susan sat depressedly on the wooden chair next to the table, and after following Du Ping for a few days, she didn't see the sword and blood shadow passed down from her ancestors to her, and the most of them were materials, photos, records, and documents. It was still the same here, and Susan even suspected that many of the family's stories were fictional. Moreover, Du Pingping's statement does not mean that there must be any results and gains this time. Just like the old Reagan took them to visit this Lind Thlesman elementary and junior high school. Although the old Reagan also won the art of negotiation, the actual gain was almost zero.

Just when Susan thought that this time it was going to end in failure and fruitlessness again. Du Pingping's hand suddenly stopped, and he handed a document to his grandfather.

Susan, "Found it?"

Du Pingping nodded.

Susan, "What kind of document is this?"

"It's a record of a little story that has been hidden. This story records that this Linde, when he was in high school, once intentionally and viciously poured a whole bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid on the face and body of a girl in the same class. Not only caused the disfigurement of this female student, but also caused more than 50% of her body skin grade 3 burns. ”

Susan, "Ahh

Susan covered her mouth in horror. Because it may be because of the girl, Susan has a more fearful fear of this kind of disfigurement of the girl's face than death.

Grandpa took the file handed over by Du Pingping and looked at it slowly.

Grandpa," this Judge Celesman called for private mediation, without reporting the case, or even leaving a record of the case. ”

"Is there a problem, I don't know." But that Lind couldn't have disfigured the girl for no reason. We should look into it. And ......"

Du Ping thought for a moment and said emphatically, "That disfigured girl's white card, we also need to check it." We'd better still find that white card!"
