Chapter 172: Facts
After Fleur awakened some of her powers and accepted the inheritance of the Dragon's Roar power from the West, she is very sensitive to any dragon aura that exists around her.
Even if it wasn't deliberately left, just what was left behind by the passage made Fleur aware of it. She fixed her eyes on the tree across from the Leeds family, narrowing her lockdown.
Sivin, limping with a cane, followed the girl one by one, and followed her into the mystery hidden in the woods.
"This ......" Fleur's azure eyes shrunk as she stared at the mark carved into the tree, the mark that the killer used to show off his accomplishments and humiliate the incompetent officers.
Fleur gently slid her fingertips with white silk gloves along the engraving and whispered, "Red Dragon Qingfeng, it seems to be a mahjong enthusiast?"/*Note: According to rumors, the red middle in mahjong may represent the red dragon in the early version exported abroad, and the original book marks that even the Asian forensic experts in it don't know what is going on. */
Engraved among the messy branches was a bright red word "Zhong", clear and powerful, even cutting through the surface of the bark, and the murderer was obviously very calm here to monitor everything that happened in Liz's house.
Right next to them, there was an empty can, and if it weren't for the tragic murder on the other side, it would probably have been thought that this was a casual treehouse break.
"Very keen mental observation, very powerful body. Hannibal didn't come closer, but looking at him from afar, he could guess that the girl who had arrived with Sivin had found an important clue.
And that position was the direction of the smell of sin that his keen sense of smell of God.
Jack quickly called in agents to take pictures, and then quickly sent the obtained pattern to the Asian FBI branch for analysis. Will looked at the bright Chinese character, his eyes were a little confused, and he remembered the female forensic doctor who had supported him in his most dangerous and difficult time.
"If Beverly had been here, maybe we'd have the information about the pattern right away. His words made Jack on the side also very worried, although there was no clear evidence, but it was clear that everyone knew that Beverly had disappeared after tracking down information about Hannibal.
And at the observatory where she was last traced, the blood-stained scene that was basically the entire amount of an adult's blood made everyone give up hope that Beverly was still alive.
If it weren't for the fact that the dark deal had completely broken the bottom line in many people's so-called hearts, it was possible that Will and Jack would never have met Dr. Hannibal Lecter again in their lives, let alone cooperated.
Hannibal stood in the area of the clearing between the woods and the house, close to the woods, looking up at the sky, interrupting the stagnant atmosphere.
"Will, remember what I told you. Have you seen blood in the moonlight? They're black. "Hannibal's perfect smile and graceful temperament make it impossible to associate him with a monster.
According to Jack, this killer kills every time on the night of the full moon, and regards his actions as a kind of pilgrimage, so after killing someone, standing here, naked and covered in blood, looking up at the full moon, isn't it what those Puritans should do. Hannibal continued.
"And here, what a perfect place to wear even a single piece of clothing, without worrying about the neighbors being able to see through the thick fence to see the intimate scene in the yard. ”
Hannibal's words sent Will's mind into his own unique vision.
With a detailed exploration of the inside of the house, he was able to recreate in his mind the tragedy that had taken place here.
Using a glass knife and a suction cup, the killer silently carved a round hole in the glass door that was large enough for his hand to reach into, twisted the deadbolt, and entered the room while everyone was asleep.
Immediately after, he ...... Without hesitation, he went straight to Mrs. Leeds and Mr. Leeds' bedroom, turned on the light, and the bright light woke the sleeping two.
Mrs. Leeds, who woke up first, was shot in the spine before she could scream, lost her mobility, and fell there trembling, her eyes could see and her ears could hear, but she could do nothing.
Mr. Leeds got up, but he was no match for him, and with ease a dagger slit his throat, blood gushing out of his arteries, staining the bedroom bright red.
But even so, Mr. Leeds still clutched his neck and tried to climb out, because Mr. Leeds saw him walking out, and next to the bedroom was the children's place.
Whether it is a boy who has just woken up, or a little girl who hides under the bed and is as delicate as a doll, they are all shot and killed, and they are as quiet as real dolls.
Mr. Leeds crawled down the hallway, blood spreading, and he was shot and killed as he walked out of the child's bedroom, leaving Mrs. Leeds frozen in the bedroom.
……
Will woke up from his vision, drenched in cold sweat, and looked at the broken mirror in front of him, the fragments on which were mutilated, because the murderer had placed them in the eyes of the Leeds.
"Is this bastard here to bring the Leeds family to life, to admire his greatness and masterpieces? Will reasoned, "Jack, carefully examine the Leeds' bodies, especially the eyes and other places, this bastard took off his gloves and touched them. ”
"Compared to Will's statement, I think they're more like a state of rebirth, of rebirth, and at the same time looking at his rebirth, rebirth, and evolution. Hannibal added with a smile.
"What do you think about Dr. Bloom and Dr. Dawes?" asked Jack politely, and Moli-Dawes's slightly hoarse voice rang out.
"Ah, it's an honor to discuss it with you. I think that compared to the sexual impotence described in the FBI documents, the prisoner is more like a physical and mental problem.
He shattered all the mirrors, as is easy to see in psychoanalysis, that there must be a scar on his face, or some feature that would be discriminated against or ridiculed against.
As for the indecency of women, although he took off his gloves and stroked them, he did not commit any further violations, indicating that he was not a sexual impulse crime.
I think he should have some psychological problems about women, such as the corresponding existence in the environment in which he grew up when he was a child, so that he felt that killing a perfect woman, placing her, and letting her watch his transformation can realize himself. ”
As a top professor of psychology at Yale, Mo Li Dawes may not have as much practical experience as Alana Bloom, who has been in a psychiatric hospital for a long time, but he has his own experience.
"Very insightful, I haven't seen such a perfect psychologist for a long time after Alana. It's not just academic. Hannibal graciously praised Dr. Dawes.
"Thank you, Dr. Bloom must have learned a lot from you. "It is clear to the world of psychology that Alana Bloom was taught by Hannibal Lecter.
At this time, a piece of information was handed to Jack, and he frowned, "According to the reply of the Asian CIA Division, this red word represents the red dragon. ”
