The bodies of the same naked young women, also abandoned near the Green River. But the only difference is that it has been almost forty years since the last case. And this time, the Green River Killer announced his return with three lives.

Just when the FBI arrived at the scene to investigate, the divers in charge of underwater reconnaissance fished up another female body from the bottom of the river, and so far, the salvage work is still ongoing, and no one can guarantee whether more bodies will be found.

The three bodies that had been found were now parked in an open area by the river, and their bodies had been placed in body bags after a simple treatment. Lin Xiu folded his hands and expressed his condolences to the corpse, and Sean also took out the cross he had worn for many years from his collar and prayed secretly.

"Can you let us see the corpse?" asked Lin Xiu, who had been working with the female forensic doctor on the side.

The female forensic doctor gently opened the body bag, and then handed Lin Xiuyi and Sean respectively, a pair of masks and a pair of rubber gloves.

The first victim was a young Caucasian woman, probably between 16 and 25 years old, with a lot of aquatic plants and taro paste visible in her blonde hair. There was a bruise on the corner of the victim's left eye, but there were signs of healing, and it could be inferred that the bruise had been around for some days. The victim's nasal cavity, ear canal, and mouth had some sediment from the river.

On the victim's neck, there was a visible strangulation mark that was diagonally 45 degrees upward. If nothing else, the victim would have been strangled from behind.

After obtaining the permission of the forensic doctor, Lin Xiuyi took a general look at the victim's body, and there were some bruises of different sizes on the surface of the body. Victims of the Green River murder and abandonment of bodies thirty years ago had similar bruises.

"Are there any other clues?" After Lin Xiu finished looking at the first corpse, he didn't continue to look at the remaining two. His knowledge of forensic science was limited, and he had just observed corpses just now to apply to the Green River murder and abandonment case more than thirty years ago in his mind. As it stands, many of the situations are similar to those of thirty years ago.

"I don't know, we can't interfere here for the time being, we have to wait until the on-site search department finishes the work here!" After Shaun said this, he immediately pulled Lin Xiuyi out of the area inside the cordon.

After this period of contact, Lin Xiuyi still knows some of the FBI's procedures. The Seattle Sub-Bureau was assigned to the scene mainly by junior personnel from the Scene Search Section, including forensic and on-site investigators, while the identification of physical evidence was carried out at the Sub-Bureau's Crime Identification Laboratory. Only after the systematic investigation and appraisal of professionals, all the evidence analysis reports left by the murderer in the current investigation of the crime will be transferred to the hands of the detectives handling the case.

"What do you think, Sean, did he do it?" Lin Xiuyi returned to the car and asked Sean quietly.

"Who, the Green River Killer?" I don't know!" Sean said with his hair tucked back his head and a solemn face.

"Sean, although I have read the file of the Green River Killer, after all, you participated in the investigation of that case back then, how likely do you think this case was done by the Green River Killer!" Lin Xiuyi continued to ask.

"I really hope it wasn't that guy who did it, but my gut tells me he's back!" Sean replied meaningfully.

……

For the first time since August 31, 1888, when Victorian Polly Nicoles had her throat slit near Whitechapel, a series of murders has been brought to the fore. Jack the Ripper isn't the world's first serial killer, but he's the most famous.

For most people, it is difficult to understand the motive of a serial killer, and the media often blames the motive of a serial killer on mental health. But is this classification really scientific? In fact, even the same serial killer is likely to have very different emotions and motivations each time he or she commits a crime. People are not machines, and in most cases human excesses are governed by emotions, but why serial killers kill people is simply an unanswerable question.

Lin Xiuyi and Sean left the crime scene ahead of schedule, although there are not enough conditions for the analysis of the merger case now, but Sean and Lin Xiuyi have already put this case together with the Green River murder case more than 30 years ago in their hearts.

After Lin Xiuyi and Sean returned to the North District Police Station, the first thing they did was to find out all the case files of the Green River murder and corpse abandonment case, and the two read the investigation report of that year over and over again. The result can only be to confirm their speculation over and over again.

"The case took place east of Seattle, near the Green River Basin in King County. The two victims, Winnie and Linnie, had run away from home before they were killed. The place where we found the body today is further downstream and east of the place where the body was found in that case......"

Sean retrieved a map of the Seattle area, and then began to mark the location of the bodies found in the two cases. From the map, the two places are about a dozen miles apart. Neither of these sites is far from Route 90.

"Highway 90 is the most important transportation artery east of Seattle, connecting downtown Seattle with King County in the east and the Tukma International Airport, but because of the high traffic here, there is a lot of commerce on both sides of the road, and there are plenty of cheap motels and strip bars on both sides of the road. Coupled with the large number of homeless people who gather here, Route 90 is the slum of Seattle. Our investigation started with the clients who frequented the place......"

"Is this the reason why you were able to find 18,000 suspects?" Lin Xiuyi finally knew why the FBI was able to find so many suspects back then. There's an entire highway throughout Seattle for the men in the city to buy prostitution. There will be a few of them who are more or less unwilling to give money, or the price cannot be negotiated. And killing is the easiest way to lift your pants and not admit it. Of course, this is an investigation of the case from a perspective that can be understood by ordinary people. The two victims killed more than 30 years ago were minors, and what could they do to make a living without the financial support of their families? On Route 90, the answer is obvious.

"There is no problem with the idea of finding the murderer from among the prostitutes! Because the victims all have obvious signs of sexual assault! But if 12,000 suspects cannot be found, then there is a problem! Because the number of men who have visited the infamous Route 90 is certainly more than that, and the real calculation should be far less than 1 in 20,000 to find the murderer!"
