Chapter 93: Severed Finger Ogre (13/24)

"Tallinn cannibalism, Stephanie, do you know?"

Sitting in the café outside the police station, Horn and Suzanne went in to get the case information, Donald was squinting his eyes and thinking about the manipulation and release of Bigby's King Kong Fist, but found that the atmosphere was a little silent, so he simply asked about the case.

"I don't know, I used to live in Xialin, and I don't usually pay much attention to these cases, Pence?"

Stephanie was still looking through the menu in the café and shook her head at Pence.

"I've only heard about it, there was a lot of trouble in this case at the time, there were a lot of dead, and the murderer seemed to be a guy from a mental hospital, and he thought that eating human flesh could gain strength and prolong life...... As for the model of that finger...... Anyway, the police station said it was a model, and I heard people say that it was a real person's finger bone when I was drinking in Dragon Hunting, and there was anything to say anyway. ”

Pence also knew nothing about the case, and most of the content was hearsay about the dragon hunt.

"There are doubts in this case. ”

Boglo, who hadn't spoken much, came in at this time and interjected, and the eyes of Donald and the others immediately turned away.

Only now do I remember that the person in front of me is an old qualification of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau, and he used to be a captain.

"I was not in charge of this case, but one of the investigators involved in this case at that time was my friend, and he told me that although the murderer was found in this case, there are still some doubts, one of which is the finger bone, the murderer likes to leave a finger bone at the kidnapping scene, which has a model, that is when the first disappearance case occurred, and the next disappearance case is the real finger bone, so the murderer also has the title of a severed finger ogre...... Some fingers were indeed found under the floor tiles under the mentally ill man's bed that he was eventually caught...... I heard that it was gnawed half, so the police station and the abnormal investigation bureau were convicted, but the finger bones at the murder scene were white bones without any flesh and blood, no matter how good the guy's teeth were, it was impossible to gnaw so cleanly, so some people suspected that there were other murderers at the time, but the government chose to close the case in order to calm the turmoil, not that it did not investigate, but it changed from a superficial investigation to a private investigation, and now it seems that there should be no result. ”

Boglo was just saying the result, and he had never been much of a fan of expressing personal conjectures, perhaps because he thought there was no point in saying unfounded speculations.

"It's disgusting......"

Probably thinking of that scene, Stephanie's expression was not very good.

Donald had seen more disgusting scenes in the town of Red Cliffs, but he didn't feel much at this time, but he was a little interested in the cruelty-sounding title of Severed Finger Ogre.

"It's out. ”

Pence pointed out to the street, where Shelley and Suzanne were coming, followed by two men in police uniforms.

"These two are the sheriffs in the police department who were in charge of this case, and they know something about the situation...... Mt. Green, Keppel Leonard. ”

Suzanne gave a short introduction, which was a preliminary understanding.

"With all due respect, these two sheriffs have been checking for so long, and there has been no special progress, how many of us should check it again? Aren't they all report materials here, just hand them over directly?"

Looking at the two file bags on the table, Donald felt that the contents on them should be detailed enough.

"This is information from five months ago, because of the problem of manpower resources within the police department, we actually stopped investigating this case a long time ago. ”

Murtryy Green pressed the information on the table and said in front of Suzanne and Horn.

The Severed Finger Cannibal case has been going on for some time, and the police department doesn't have the resources and manpower to investigate a case that has already been closed, especially if there are no new, similar victims.

"That's it, since there are requirements above, what should be checked or checked, the confession at that time is here, there should be no need to ask again, what we have to do is to go to some places at that time to have a look, such as some doubts and unsolved questions at that time, in short, we can't be idle, even if it's a show......"

Suzanne pushes a file bag to Donald and the rest to Horn, and the distribution of the team is decided when it comes, Horn needs the more combative Boglo in the team as a helper, and she naturally wants to be with Horn.

"Excuse me, what do you think of the investigation as child's play?"

Keppel Leonard's emotions seemed to be a little agitated for Susanna's frivolous words, and his eyes kept rolling on the faces of several members of the Rose Squad.

Donald, who was about to speak, gave Keppel Leonard a strange look, and the expressions of the others were about the same.

Treating the investigation as child's play?

The prisoner in this case was arrested by the police department, and the case was also closed by them, and the follow-up private investigation was also decided to stop by them.

"Keppel, what are you talking about? Watch your words!"

Stilley Green, who looked older, suddenly turned his head and reprimanded. at

"It's okay, it's my problem......"

Susanna's explanation made the scene even more awkward all at once.

"Let's investigate the case, let's move first, we can't find new clues while sitting here, I think this Mr. Leonard will be our guide, how about it?"

Donald got up to play a round, if it continues in such a stalemate, the case has not been investigated, and the two sides are estimated to have a conflict.

He really doesn't have that much time to watch people quarrel here, so will he help Suzanne bully a policeman when the time comes?

"I'm okay with that, Keppel, you go to the places in the East District, I'll go to the West District, is there a problem?"

"Nope. ”

Keppel was in awe of Mutley.

The two groups left the café one after another, Donald was driven by Pence, Stephanie was in the passenger seat, Donald was in the back seat of the car with the document bag and Keppel, and Lilo was in the back seat of the car.

"Are these all the victims?"

Holding a stack of photographs in his hand, about seven or eight of them, each of which was a different corpse, and looking through them one by one, Donald noticed that all the corpses had one thing in common, that is, the body was more or less mutilated, and nearly half of the victims had a blood line from the chest to the lower abdomen.

The murderer likes to destroy corpses and disembowel them, and the places where the corpses are dumped vary from the background of the photo.

"No, we haven't found some bodies yet. ”

Keppel did not look at Donald as he spoke, nor did he look at the picture in his hand.

"The corpse's viscera are missing...... Among them, the heart is the most common...... Cooking? If I understand the cooking mentioned above, it's people?"

Donald has a good memory, so he plans to go through the information before arriving at the first location, and save a few more glances later.

Seeing the description of the prisoner's crime, he always thought that the so-called severed finger cannibal was a criminal who liked to eat people's fingers, but now it seems that he took it for granted.

"That's right, we found an iron pot and some remnants of viscera in several strongholds of the murderer, he kidnapped people not only for the purpose of killing, according to what we found in the course of solving the case, he likes to tie people to chairs, pillars, or other fixed objects, and then cut open the victim's body with a knife, if he can, he will make the victim's life as long as possible, watching him cook the pieces of meat or internal organs...... Because of this situation, the police department decided that the murderer should be a psychopath. ”

Keppel's words made the other people in the car look a little unsightly.

It's not that they haven't seen dead people, it's just that this way of killing people is really not acceptable to ordinary people.

Oh, and there's one exception, and that's Lilo.

Time passed as Donald flipped through the archives, and soon they were at the former stronghold of the first Severed Finger Ogre.

"It's one of the poorest neighborhoods in Tallinn, and we're going to be in a residential building. ”

Although Tallinn represents a middle-class living area, this does not mean that everyone's life is average, and there are always people whose quality of life is below average.

They are unwilling to abandon the living environment in Tallinn, even if they are desperate, they do not want to go to the land area.

Because getting there means that their children and offspring will have to work harder if they want to return to Tallinn or Xialin.

Streets littered with fallen leaves, tilted garbage cans, mottled buildings, good and bad street lamps on the side of the road, and the occasional few wrapped residents walking by, looking at Donald and his party with envy or jealousy in their eyes.

"This way. ”

Keppel had apparently been there many times before, and he led a few people into a nearby building.

Walking up from the first floor, Donald saw clutter piled up on both sides of the stairs and corners, children sitting in a daze in the doorway, and bamboo poles and clothes hanging across the hallway, and there was no balcony here.

Passing by a corridor occasionally, you can see coolly dressed women standing outside several rooms inside, who see people in police uniforms passing by but do not flinch, but wave in this direction and make some suggestive gestures.

"It's here. ”

On the fourth floor of the building, there were noticeably fewer people on this side, and they were all gathered in the corridor on the east side, but on the west side were piled up with some wooden boxes and empty wine bottles, and there were obviously no inhabitants inside.

"When the body was found here, the building had just been completed, and the surrounding environment was being assessed and approved by the government, and no one lived in it, and then after that incident, the room here was sealed up, and no one wanted to live in it, so it was empty. ”

Stepping over the debris and approaching the door, the first thing Donald saw was an iron fence.

Then there is a wooden door with a seal attached.

The seal is broken......
