Chapter 22: Hypnotic Suspicions
Early the next morning, Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi went to Bao Kang's office to report on the progress of the case. Bao Kang listened to the report of the two, slapped the table suddenly, and Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan, who were standing opposite, hung their heads and were silent.
"Inspector General Gordon has already made a second call to me, and if we can't solve the case, let's get out of here!" Bao Kang roared.
"Director Bao rest assured, we will solve the case as soon as possible." Ying Xi patted his chest to guarantee.
"Director Bao, this case is not that simple......" Lu Hehuan was interrupted by Bao Kang before he finished speaking.
"I'm not asking you to help me analyze whether this case is simple or difficult, what I want is the result, the process is not important, I don't care what method you use, you must arrest the murderer for me within two days, otherwise you will go and close the case for the murderer!"
Lu Hehuan wanted to say something, but was pulled by Ying Xi.
"We know, Director Bao rest assured." Ying Xi smiled.
"Get out!" Bao Kang viciously.
Ying Xila landed and He Huan walked out of Bao Kang's office in a gloomy manner.
As soon as Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi walked to the corridor, Ying Xi couldn't help but teach Lu Hehuan a lesson, he sighed and looked at Lu Hehuan.
"Lu Hehuan, Lu Hehuan, I said suicide to close the case, you have to insist that it is a serial murder case, this time you were miserable!"
"As long as you keep tracking, there will definitely be clues." Lu Hehuan responded firmly.
"Are you sure?"
"Not sure, but I'm confident."
Ying Xi rolled his eyes disdainfully, "Confidence is a fart!" ”
As the two spoke, the bald head hurried over.
"Inspector Ying, Bai Yulou has turned himself in."
When Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan heard this, they both suspected that something was wrong with their ears, and they couldn't help but confirm again in unison, "Who?" ”
"White Jade Building." The bald head repeated it again loudly. Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi made sure that they heard correctly, and hurriedly followed the bald head to the interrogation room.
In the interrogation room, Bai Yulou sat opposite Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi reluctantly.
"I turned myself in, Chen Xiu'e, Liang Fang, and Sun Fenglian were all killed by me, Chen Xiu'e and Sun Fenglian were strangled by me and hung on the beams of the house, and Liang Fang was pushed downstairs by me." Bai Yulou mechanically confessed, his voice without a trace of emotion.
"Why are you doing that?" Lu Hehuan was puzzled.
"Because they always laugh at me for being a sissy, they deserve to die!"
Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi were shocked, they didn't expect Bai Yulou, who had always been weak, to kill three people in a row, and the motive for killing was just because they were laughed at. Of course, it was not enough to listen to the suspect's confession, Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi decided to go to Bai Yulou's house to investigate.
Bao Ying was dissecting Sun Fenglian's body in the forensic office when there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in." Bao Ying responded without raising his head.
The door opened, and Zhu Wolong appeared at the door holding a bouquet of roses. When Bao Ying saw Zhu Wolong, he sighed helplessly.
Zhu Wolong walked in and smiled awkwardly, "Miss Bao, I'm ......"
Bao Ying interrupted Zhu Wolong and shook the scalpel in his hand, "What are you doing here?" ”
Zhu Wolong saw that Bao Ying was holding a bright scalpel in his hand, and was a little scared, so he directly put the flower in Sun Fenglian's bent arm.
"I'm here to deliver flowers to the dead."
After Zhu Wolong finished speaking, he turned around and left in a hurry, and Bao Ying shook his head helplessly.
Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi entered the Bai family, only to see that there were many vases in Bai Yulou's house, and the vases were full of acacia flowers.
"No wonder several crime scenes have locust flower petals." Ying Xi pointed to the acacia flower, and found that the acacia flower at the scene of the crime finally had an explanation.
Lu Hehuan frowned and looked around, but there was nothing special except for the acacia flower, and he couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "Strange ......"
Ying Xi interrupted Lu Hehuan, "It's really strange for a big man to like acacia flowers, but this doesn't affect the closure of the case." ”
Lu Hehuan moved his lips, as if he wanted to refute, but after all, there was no reason to refute.
Liu Rushuang heard the news and came to visit the prison. She stood outside the cell, and Bai Yulou in the cell cried and grabbed Liu Rushuang's hand, and kept pleading.
"Sister Shuang, please, I beg you......"
"In vain, you don't have to beg me, I believe that you didn't kill anyone, I will definitely save you!" Liu Rushuang interrupted the white jade building.
"No!" Bai Yulou shook his head desperately, "I beg you to believe me, I really killed all the people!" I beg you, don't save me, don't save me! ”
Liu Rushuang was blinded, she frowned, turned around and ran away.
Ying Xi closed the case in a hurry, and pulled Lu He Huan to the door of Bao Kang and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Bao Kang's familiar voice came from inside the door.
Ying Xi pulled Lu He Huan in, and as soon as he entered, Ying Xi couldn't wait to report the good news.
"Director Bao, under my careful investigation, I have finally locked down the murderers of the three serial murders!"
"Who is it?!" Bao Kang was surprised, he didn't expect Ying Xi to be so fast.
"This person lives in the White Jade Building in Huaihua Lane. The reason why no clues were found before was because Bai Yulou worked in a private detective agency named Shuangxi and had strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. ”
"Inspector Ying did a good job." Bao Kang was excited.
Ying Xi patted Bao Kang's ass, "It's all Director Bao's teaching, Director Bao, Bai Yulou has been detained, and the motive for the crime and the process of the crime have all been explained, so I will start sorting out the case file and preparing to convict Bai Yulou." ”
"Good!"
Bao Kang and Ying Xi were both excited, but Lu Hehuan frowned and didn't say a word, he always felt that Bai Yulou was not in the right state.
Ying Xi pulled Lu He Huan out of the door, and turned Lu He Huan with his arm, "Don't be in a daze, go and close the case." ”
"I always feel that there is something wrong with Bai Yulou's speech when he turns himself in, but I can't tell what is wrong." Lu Hehuan confessed his doubts to Ying Xi.
"Since you can't say it, then don't say it, let alone think that it's not easy for me to sit in the position of inspector, so don't give me anything to do. I'll go to the archives to find information on the first few cases, and you're waiting for me here. Ying Xi comforted Lu Hehuan, but he was worried that he would have extraneous branches, so he specially advised, "Remember, don't look for trouble anymore!" ”
Ying Xi ran to get the information, and Lu Hehuan thought about it while walking in the corridor. Liu Rushuang hurriedly ran over, she looked anxious, looked around and didn't find Ying Xi, and lowered her voice to Lu Hehuan's ear.
"Lu Hehuan, this case is strange, it is impossible to kill people in vain, he was with me at the time of the crime, there is no time to commit the crime, let alone a motive to kill!"
Lu Hehuan nodded, thinking deeply, "I also feel strange." ”
"And I went to see Baibai just now, and I feel like he's a little weird......"
Before Liu Rushuang finished speaking, Ying Xi came back with the case materials.
"What are you talking about?"
"There are many suspicious points in the Bai Yulou case, and I think the investigation should continue." Lu Hehuan replied to Ying Xi straightforwardly.
"You have nothing to do, even the murderer himself has confessed, what else are you investigating?" Ying Xi blamed Lu Hehuan.
"Yes, Bai Yulou himself has pleaded guilty, so the case should be closed." Liu Rushuang pretended to help on the side.
"Miss Liu, didn't you say ...... just now" Lu Hehuan was a little foggy, and almost said that Liu Rushuang asked for help to rescue Bai Yulou, but fortunately he saw Liu Rushuang desperately slapping his eyes in time, and hurriedly changed his words, "Even if you just said that you support Inspector Ying, I don't believe it, I want to continue to investigate." ”
Ying Xi was indignant, and Liu Rushuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Hehuan came to Sun Fenglian's house again to simulate the crime. He put the hemp rope on a bulky bag, and then hung the other end of the hemp rope on the beam, where he pulled the rope, trying to hang the sack, but could not pull at all. Lu Hehuan frowned and thought for a moment, then left quickly.
Lu Hehuan returned to the police station and went directly to the interrogation room to interrogate Bai Yulou.
Bai Yulou sat opposite Lu Hehuan, staring at Lu Hehuan, staring at the dead fish eyes, without blinking his eyes.
"Bai Yulou, you obviously didn't kill anyone, why do you say that people killed themselves?"
"I killed people, I killed them." Bai Yulou repeated mechanically.
"Sun Fenglian weighs one hundred and thirty-eight pounds, and you weigh one hundred and twenty pounds, it is impossible for you to hang Sun Fenglian's body." It turned out that Lu Hehuan had just discovered this suspicion at the deceased Sun Fenglian's house.
"It's the person I killed, I confess my guilt, you guys hurry up and shoot me, don't wronged other good people." Bai Yulou looked very unconvinced.
"You don't have the time or motive to kill at all, who are you reproaching for?" Lu Hehuan directly asked Bai Yulou.
"I killed people, I killed people! I killed people......"
Bai Yulou became emotional, rushed over and grabbed Lu Hehuan's neck, and yelled, "You convict me immediately, I am a murderer, quickly convict me!" ”
Lu Hehuan restrained Bai Yulou, and two police officers rushed in and held Bai Yulou down.
"I killed people, I killed people......" Bai Yulou was still struggling frantically, shouting.
Lu Hehuan found that Bai Yulou's eyes were straight, very irritable, and suspicious. He motioned to the officer, "Look at him. With that, he hurried away.
Lu Hehuan returned to the dormitory and looked through the medical books on his bookshelf.
"What the hell is it......" Lu Hehuan said to himself while flipping through the book, "That kind of look, saying only one sentence repeatedly, only thinking about one thing in his mind...... What is it? ”
As soon as Lu Hehuan turned around, he accidentally touched a book on the shelf, he picked up the book, inadvertently swept the title of the book, and suddenly realized.
Lu Hehuan opened the "Hypnotism Bible" in his hand and read the contents of the book.
"Hypnotism is a psychological suggestion behavior, in which the hypnotist enters information into the subconscious of the hypnotized person through the psychological suggestion of words, sounds, movements, and eyes......"
Lu Hehuan suddenly remembered that during his study in Great Britain, a foreign professor had told him about hypnosis, and the lecture scene was still vivid.
In a class at the University of Great Britain, a foreign professor is holding a "Hypnotism Bible" and giving a lecture. The professor has white hair, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his tall nose, and blue eyes, which looks extremely noble.
“…… As a result, their thinking patterns and behavior patterns are changed, and the hypnotized person will even unconsciously accept the hypnotist's psychological cues. ”
Lu Hehuan, who was sitting in the first row, took notes while listening carefully to the class.
"There are two main forms of hypnosis, one is 'paternal hypnosis' and the other is 'maternal hypnosis'." When the professor said this, he suddenly looked at the students under the podium, and the words changed, "Which student is willing to come up and experience it?" ”
The students enthusiastically raised their hands, and the professor clicked on a British boy sitting next to Lu Hehuan.
The boy strode up to the podium, the collar of his shirt slightly open, revealing his wheat-colored skin, and he was full of teenage sensuality and energy.
"Are you ready?" The professor looked kind.
"Ready, Professor." The boy excitedly gestured OK.
"Now I assure you with my professionalism and experience that under the supervision of your classmates, you will experience hypnosis and will definitely protect your safety, both physical and mental."
The boy nodded reassuringly.
The professor motioned for the students in the audience to be quiet, turned to stare at the boy on the podium, and gave instructions.
"Now close your eyes, clench your hands into fists and breathe as deeply as you can."
The boy followed the professor's instructions, closed his eyes, clenched his hands into fists, and breathed deeply.
Lu Hehuan slowly put down the pen and looked at the boy on the podium seriously.
The professor naturally placed his hands on the boy's shoulders, and suddenly shouted "fall", and then he pushed the boy down with both hands at the same time, and at the same time quickly reached out to support the boy's body.
The boy is nervous due to the imbalance, his hands are clenched tighter, and his body is in a state of stiffness.
The students, including Lu Hehuan, all looked at the boy nervously, and the classroom was suddenly silent.
The professor held the boy's body with both hands and rested his head and feet on a table. The boy's body is in a suspended state. The students under the podium were dumbfounded.
"You're already under hypnosis, your whole body is stiff, stiff like a steel plate, your neck, your waist, your legs, it's all very hard, like a steel plate, where I touch it, it's harder...... You're a 'bridge now,' ......" the professor continued to deepen the hint in affirmative terms.
As soon as the professor finished speaking, the boy was like a plank between the two tables.
The students were so surprised that their jaws dropped.
The professor looked at the boy with satisfaction, and then looked sideways at the students under the podium, "This is the shocking effect of violent hypnosis, which belongs to a kind of 'paternal hypnosis'. And 'maternal hypnosis' is to use warmth to break through the psychological defense line of the hypnotized, that is, a kind of soft offensive......"
Lu Hehuan came out of his memories, slowly closed the book, and couldn't help muttering, "I see, it's ......"
Lu Hehuan ran to Bao Kang's office non-stop and explained to Bao Kang that Bai Yulou was hypnotized and went to the police station to surrender, and the real murderer was someone else.
Bao Kang was furious when he heard this, and the table slammed loudly, "Bullshit! Lu Hehuan, do you think I am a three-year-old child? What kind of hypnotism does Hu make up to exonerate Bai Yulou? No way! ”
Lu Hehuan, who was standing opposite Bao Kang, put the "Hypnotism Bible" in his hand on Bao Kang's table, and patiently explained, "Hypnotism is not bullshit, it has a scientific basis, this book is written by the hypnotic master Shamond, and the content of the second chapter of the book 'The Power of Suggestion' and the fourth chapter of 'Strong Hypnosis' can prove that Bai Yulou is likely to be hypnotized by the murderer." ”
Bao Kang impatiently took the book and flipped a few pages, but he really couldn't read it, and threw it to Lu Hehuan, "I don't have time to look at this kind of nonsense." ”
"It's not nonsense, there are cases, I went to school in Great Britain before, and the psychology professor also talked about hypnosis, Bai Yulou should be hypnotized by 'paternal hypnosis', simply put, the hypnotist is to issue instructions in a commanding tone, so that the hypnotized person feels irresistible and has to surrender." Lu Hehuan tried to use the power of science to convince Bao Kang.
Bao Kang stood up angrily and walked to Lu Hehuan's side.
"Lu Hehuan, the impact of these cases is very bad, it has caused panic among the masses, Inspector General Gordon has called three times, and now that the murderer has surrendered, don't do so many things!"
"But it wasn't the real murderer who turned himself in! If Bai Yulou is convicted, there is only one more unjust deceased, and the impact of the case will be even worse. Lu Hehuan's tone was resolute.
Bao Kang couldn't help but be angry when he saw Lu Hehuan's tendons, and he slammed the table again, "Lu Hehuan!" ”
Lu Hehuan stood up when he heard this, and shouted, "Here!" ”
"You ......" Bao Kang angrily pointed to Lu He Huan's nose.
"I have a way to prove that Bai Yulou is not the murderer."
As soon as Lu Hehuan's words fell, there was a knock on the door.
"Get in!" Bao Kang's belly is full of evil fire.
Ying Xi pushed the door in, and when he saw Lu Hehuan, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Ying Xi expected that Lu Hehuan must have come to Bao Kang's office to make the case of Huaihua getting a widow to hang herself, so he hurriedly approached Lu Hehuan and lowered his voice, "Lu Hehuan, I'm ready to close the case here, what do you want to do?" ”
Lu Hehuan looked at Ying Xi and was emotional, "I can't close the case, Bai Yulou is not the real murderer, he is just taking the blame for the murderer." ”
"The murderer is Bai Yulou's dearest dearest? Why did Bai Yulou take the blame for the murderer? Ying Xi was confused.
"Bai Yulou was hypnotized and unconsciously obeyed the murderer's instructions."
"What kind of spell is hypnosis? Lu Hehuan, if you continue like this, everyone will be killed by you. The more Ying Xi listened, the more confused he became.
"Director Bao, Inspector Ying, I'm going to prove that Bai Yulou is not the murderer!" Lu Hehuan involuntarily raised his voice.
Ying Xi was helpless and turned his head to look at Bao Kang.
Bao Kang was furious, his flushed face twisted into an angry lion, and roared, "I don't care what you want to prove, you listen to me, the case can't be solved, you two get out together!" ”
"What does this have to do with me?" Ying Xi looked innocent.
"He's your agent, do you think it matters?"
Ying Xi was choked by Bao Kang for a while, and looked at Lu Hehuan complainingly.
Lu Hehuan avoided Ying Xi's gaze and gritted his teeth with a vow, "I will definitely solve the case as soon as possible." ”
Lu Hehuan turned around and left.
"Lu Hehuan, don't bother me!"
Ying Xi chased out.
