Chapter 47: Provocation
"The murderer left a message challenging the police, right?"
"How many victims are there at the scene?"
"I'm a reporter for the Yomiuri Shimbun, so ...... is the police department in charge of this case?"
"Let go, please give way, please let the ambulance get out of here anyway!"
……
In the pouring rain, the downstairs of the hotel where Mrs. Tomohan lived was crowded with reporters. Because not long ago, there was a serious burglary and wounding incident here, but it was not the wounding case itself that interested the reporter, but the message that challenged the police left at the scene of the crime.
"Please arrest me before I kill more, I really can't control myself!"
It was this message that immediately attracted so much media attention that it had a serious impact on the work of the search lesson. Because the news that Mrs. Tomosaka was not killed was spread through the media, the Metropolitan Police Department had no choice but to deploy a large number of police forces at the Musashino Central Hospital, where Mrs. Tomohan had already been admitted, to prevent the murderer from attacking Mrs. Tomohan again.
At this moment, Lin Xiuyi and Miki were standing in the room where the crime occurred, silent in the face of the bright red message on the wall and the smiling face under the message.
The only witness at the scene was Mrs. Tomosaka, who suffered a severe blow to the head. Her situation was not optimistic at all, and according to the preliminary conclusions given by her colleagues in the forensic section, Mrs. Tomosaka's head was first hit the door frame, and then repeatedly hit by a blunt object left at the scene. And it was on this blunt object that a bloody fingerprint belonging to Jun Ono was found.
However, compared to the information that has been mastered, what worries Lin Xiuyi more is the whereabouts of Tomosaka Sousuke's son, Tomosaka Leshi. Tomosaka Leshi, who was supposed to be taken care of by Mrs. Tomosaka, has also disappeared since the incident. According to the police's current speculation, it is very likely that Tomosaka Leshi was abducted from here by Jun Ono.
From this message left at the scene, it can be seen that Jun Ono, who has bipolar disorder himself, is now in a state of extreme excitement for crime, and he is like a time bomb that may kill again at any time. This is what the top management of the Metropolitan Police Department and the Search Division are most worried about at the moment.
"How's Mrs. Tomosaka?"
Lin Xiuyi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly asked Chiyo Tanaka beside him.
"The situation is not good, I am already on my way to the hospital, and it is a miracle that I can survive such a serious injury!"
Chiyo Tanaka said with emotion.
"The police department, we just investigated the surrounding surveillance, this area is an old street built in the last century, and most of them are residential houses, so ...... We can't rely on the surveillance footage to find the direction of the suspect's escape......"
Miki said to Lin Xiuyi ashamedly. To be honest, something like this happened suddenly, and the murderer also left an obviously provocative message at the scene, which triggered widespread media focus. As the police department in charge of this case, the pressure on Lin Xiuyi can be imagined. But Miki didn't see any anxious look on Lin Xiuyi's face, from the moment he came to the scene, Lin Xiuyi has been standing in front of this bright red message, thinking about something seriously.
To be honest, the murderer's sudden attack did make Lin Xiuyi suddenly fall into passivity. But Lin Xiuyi's mind was more of a question at this moment. He couldn't understand why a guy who knew how to brainwash and control his victims, a guy who knew how to use the bonds between victims and relatives to blackmail again and again, suddenly changed his ingenious criminal methods and suddenly did such a reckless thing.
At first glance, this message seemed to be very challenging, but Lin Xiuyi confirmed that this was really not something that a person with a brain could do. A clever suspect would definitely not deliberately leave such a childish message at the scene. You know, this guy is a criminal suspect who even asks the victim to write a blackmail letter, why would he suddenly do such a superfluous thing?
If this message is linked to Jun Ono's bipolar disorder, it seems to explain it clearly. But is it impossible for a guy with bipolar disorder to patiently and slowly train his victim to keep stealing? Although the murderer's criminal methods are very crazy, but this guy will patiently dismember the body after the killing, and the stump that Lin Shuichi saw in Tanaka Chiyo was not rudely cut off, but neatly cut off with ingenious techniques. This also means that the murderer must be very calm in his heart when he is doing this. Therefore, the motive of the murderer must not be determined simply by bipolar disorder, there must be other deeper meanings.
It is precisely because of this that after this case, Lin Xiuyi felt that Ono-kun was unlikely to be the murderer. Because the murderer should be a calm and thoughtful person, he will not suddenly do things that are meaningless. So this seemingly sudden case must have been carefully arranged by the murderer. As for the purpose, it's very simple, it's to make everyone think that the murderer is Ono-kun. If you see through this, everything here will make sense.
"Police, are we going to issue a wanted warrant for Jun Ono?"
"No, wait! we have more important things to do!"
"Police, isn't the arrest of Jun Ono the most important thing for us at the moment?"
"No! Jun Ono is not a murderer, listen to Miki, if you think that Jun Ono is a murderer, then you are very wrong, because the real murderer wants us to think so. But now it's urgent, so there's only one way to do it......"
"Police, what do you mean ......"
"Count all the teachers at Moriho School and Suruga Juku as one, and invite them all back to me!"
Hearing Lin Xiuyi's order, everyone present closed their mouths in surprise, what do you mean, why do you want to arrest so many people, and what is the reason?
"Police, are you really sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, and the sooner the better, it's best to be able to deal with this matter within an hour!Because the murderer is among these people, forget the evidence or something, if I guess correctly, Jun Ono and Tomosaka Leshi should have been taken away by the real murderer by now, if we don't disrupt the murderer's plan immediately, Ono Jun and Tomosaka Leshi are likely to be murdered immediately......"
Lin Xiuyi said to Miki very seriously.
