Start with the evidence

"And what type of serial killer are we looking for now?" Luo Qin compared several pieces of information, a little dizzy, behind the scenery, it is never inseparable from hard work. How could she never have thought that Wen Mo would bury herself in the pile of information like she is now, and find a new direction of investigation for a case that originally had no clues.

"Remember, as a psychology expert, you should never jump to conclusions about something you haven't figured out, because your judgment will have a huge impact on the detective, and if you find out that you are wrong, it may be too late to correct it. You have to ask yourself again and again, is this judgment right, on what basis, is there any other possibility? Only when you are absolutely sure that there is no other possibility can you tell the police about your conclusions. Luo Qin, let me remind you once again that criminal psychology experts are different from field criminal police, and your past experience will not help you in the slightest, on the contrary, these experiences are likely to be shackles that shackle your thinking. ”

"Because ten out of ten of the criminals we face have serious psychological problems, and what they think and do is completely different from normal people, and they are also different from the criminals you usually come into contact with the most. What they can do, even with my years of work experience, I can't guarantee that I have seen everything, so let go of the wings of your imagination and focus on evidence, even if it is incredible, as long as it corroborates with evidence, it is reasonable. ”

Luo Qin was silent for a moment. She originally thought that the experience of the captain of the criminal police was at least an advantage for her, but she didn't expect it to become a disadvantage.

The experience of nearly a year has made Luo Qin deeply understand that sometimes some things really do not depend on people's will, who can understand the pain of being trapped in a wheelchair forever at the age of 30 and having a good career? Ann prosthetics? Don't dream, just rely on her disability allowance and salary, how many teenagers can earn money for prosthetics without eating or drinking? The bureau is not well-off, and she doesn't want to cause trouble to the organization, so she calmly accepts the result of being trapped in a wheelchair.

Life can't take care of herself, this kind of thing, never in Luo Qin's calculations, she thinks, she is engaged in an extremely dangerous job, one day when she competes with criminals, the glorious sacrifice is her destination, wearing a police uniform to be buried, she is not afraid, but she is afraid to take off the police uniform to live.

Because she has long had nothing but her work, her value is linked to her work. So when Wen Mo threw a life-saving straw, she grabbed it without thinking about it.

She thought that they were mutually beneficial, she had experience, and Wen Mo had knowledge. But now it seems that her experience is not worth mentioning at all, is she pitiful by Wen Mo?

Seeing that Luo Qin has changed from full of confidence at the beginning to a disillusioned face now, Wen Mo eats by studying people's mental activities, how can she not understand what Luo Qin is thinking now, what she said just now was deliberate, Luo Qin is a proud person, she knows, but just came into contact with these new knowledge, Luo Qin must let go of all pride, step on his heart, and learn from the very basics as a newcomer.

You're not great, you're not a psychologist, you're nothing without context and evidence. This is what Wen Mo's tutor once said when she took her first psychology class, that respectable old man will always refute people to the point of having nothing to say as long as he is in class, so that you have to admit your mistakes, no matter how perfect and rigorous your reasoning is, you will not be spared.

It is precisely because of him that Wen Mo is accustomed to reviewing again and again after each conclusion, and must be 200% sure that he has not done anything wrong before he dares to publish the results. Because, her conclusion, is related to the safety of other people's lives.

There are no real knives and guns, and they are still selling cigarettes all over the place, this is the status quo of Wen Mo's work, if Luo Qin has been lying on his original experience and eating his old book, then Wen Mo is really not helping her but harming her.

"I asked you to come to the laboratory to study, not because you are my friend and I pity you, not because you have experience and I need you, but because in your eyes, I see the desire, the desire for the future life, the desire to return to work, I hope that this desire can support you to go all the way and become an excellent criminal psychology expert." Wen Mo sat opposite Luo Qin and looked at this friend's eyes: "To be honest, I was selfish, at the beginning, it was your appearance that pulled me back from the brink of collapse, I hope that we can encourage each other, learn from each other, and get out of the trough." ”

Luo Qin pulled out a smile. It's because she's too sensitive, and since she lost her legs, she always feels pity in the eyes of other people when they look at her, and helping her is out of sympathy, which is not a good habit.

"Tell me, what do you see?" Wen Mo raised her chin and tapped the victim's information.

"Ef~" Where was Luo Qin still in the mood to read the information just now, but now he couldn't answer, so he had to turn through it a few times with a flushed face, and took out a few points that he had written down in his notes before to make up the numbers: "I think the victims chosen by the murderer can almost be called marginal people in society, and their relationships with others are very far away, most of them have no father, no mother, no friends, no close relatives, and even if they have been missing for a long time, they have not even reported the crime." The killer had enough time to destroy the body after the murder, and there was no need to worry about the police looking for her. If it weren't for the accidental excavation of the cemetery, the police wouldn't even know of her existence. ”

"Good, the analysis is correct, but you forgot the most obvious point."

"Psychology is not as profound as imagined, and the only law we have to follow when studying problems is to go deep into the simple terms, from the surface to the inside, and see the essence through the phenomenon. For example, in this case, the victims chosen by the murderer have the common denominator you just said, but there is another obvious common denominator that cannot be ignored: if you look at these ten ID cards, if these people are still alive, how old are they? Look at their ID photos again and tell me what you found? ”

"These people ......" Luo Qin picked out ten copies of his ID cards and looked at them: "1980, 1976, 1977, 1979 These people, all aged between thirty-five and forty years old, looks, looks, although these ID photos are ugly, but you can still see that these people are very beautiful." ”

"Yes, so another thing that the victims have in common is their age and appearance, and you can look at this composite photo of the murderer from multiple surveillance cameras in T City, and then tell me how you feel?"

"The murderer is also very beautiful, and his age is probably between thirty and forty years old. Did she choose her own victims? ”

"Not bad."

"The murderer hated himself, but he didn't have the courage to commit suicide, so he found people similar to him to kill them one by one?" Luo Qin was a little excited, because she had encountered a similar case before, the murderer in that case was killed because he hated himself for killing his daughter, and killed in anger after seeing the victim who looked similar to herself, as if Wen Mo was out at that time, and found the murderer who had nothing to do with the victim at all.

"Remember what I just said, don't let your experience shackle your thinking, and don't arbitrarily speculate about the psychological activities of the murderer, all the judgments we make must be based on evidence."
