Chapter 19: Back to the Beginning
Mo Xiaochuan's speculation is definitely not unreasonable.
Because once this assumption is true, then many things that could not be explained before can be explained.
For example, why no ignition or combustible material was found at the scene of the crime.
For example, why didn't the murderer leave evidence of the crime, including hair, footprints, fingerprints, etc.?
Another example is how the victim was burned to death by the fire in just five seconds?
Because this is not a normal criminal case at all!
It's a legendary superpower crime!
The murderer used a phoenix fire!
What a reason for this!
Of course, at this time, Mo Xiaochuan did not have any evidence to prove his speculation, let alone who the murderer was, and most importantly, how did the other party obtain the power of the phoenix?
In addition, Mo Xiaochuan has one more thing that he has never figured out......
"As far as I know, the phoenix should be an auspicious beast, and it has nothing to do with fire, why would the phoenix feather give people the power of fire to commit crimes?"
In this regard, Qin Weiyang's answer seemed a little ambiguous.
"There is no good or bad in power itself, only those who have power can distinguish between good and evil. The phoenix has the power of the five elements, and the feathers on its back are the most quintessential firepower in the world. ”
"But why did Feng Yu choose this person?"
"I don't know, maybe this person has a desire far better than others. ”
Willpower?
Mo Xiaochuan felt that he had learned a new word.
Now his thinking is getting clearer and clearer.
Obviously, the person who committed this serial arson case was not a phoenix, but an ordinary person who accidentally obtained the firepower of the phoenix feather, and the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that appeared in his mind at the beginning should be a reminder of this.
This murderer killed Shen Yun and Xie Tianhao one after another, and was almost discovered by Qin Weiyang, and finally injured Qin Weiyang by means of sneak attack.
All this shows that the murderer's range of activities is in Nanshan!
It's even near the University of Posts and Posts!
Well, there is a high probability that this person is a university student.
Now that there are still four days before the start of the University of Posts and Posts, there are not many students who have returned to school early, and it stands to reason that if the police were willing to investigate one by one, they should have caught the murderer long ago.
But why hasn't there been any news yet?
On the way to the police station before, Mo Xiaochuan analyzed Ma Kaiye that this was a serial homicide case.
Facts have proved that Mo Xiaochuan's judgment was right.
But even serial homicides are divided into different types.
At first, Mo Xiaochuan thought that the murderer was a random crime, and he generally belonged to the type of perverted murderer.
But it's a pity that Mo Xiaochuan was wrong at this point.
Because there is a link between the first victim and the second victim.
So this is a premeditated, planned, purposeful, serial arson case.
Then the key to solving the case is back to the beginning.
Two words.
Motivation.
What is the motive of the murderer?
In addition, Mo Xiaochuan also has a doubt, that is, the reason why the murderer used fire to commit the crime was for some special reason, with some symbolic meaning, or simply because he obtained the fire feather of the phoenix, so he temporarily chose the means of murder?
There is a big difference between the two.
To put it simply, the former can help solve the case, while the latter will make it more difficult to solve the case.
After thinking about it, Mo Xiaochuan couldn't come up with one, two, three, which made him even more regretful that Qin Weiyang, the only one who had fought with the prisoner, couldn't see the other party's appearance.
So Mo Xiaochuan decided to try to solve Qin Weiyang's second problem first.
Help her heal the poison of fire.
Of course Mo Xiaochuan won't do this, but it doesn't mean that no one will.
So he simply called Ah Long and asked bluntly, "Do you know how to get rid of the residual poison of the phoenix fire?"
Aaron shook his head.
Mo Xiaochuan was immediately disappointed.
What about the dragon and phoenix?
What about the dragon flying and phoenix dancing?
What about the dragon and phoenix since ancient times?
You're a dragon anyway, why don't you know anything about your phoenix?
But then, I heard Ah Longhu speak: "But the shopkeeper Chen of Yongfa Pawnshop should have a way." ”
Hearing this, Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help but be stunned.
The shopkeeper of Yongfa Pawnshop?
Could it be that the other party is a healing monster?
For example, auspicious eggs, Yingcao, Ebisu, or something......
Well, it always feels like the style of painting isn't quite right.
Fortunately, Ah Long continued to add: "Shopkeeper Chen is dedicated to collecting rare treasures in this world, maybe there is something that can suppress the phoenix fire. ”
Mo Xiaochuan realized this, and he didn't delay any longer, and immediately got up and said to Qin Weiyang: "In that case, you stay here for a while, and I'll go to ask Shopkeeper Chen." ”
Qin Weiyang had no opinion on this, nodded and said, "Okay, then it's time to work hard to make an adult." ”
Mo Xiaochuan waved his hand: "Don't see me so much, it's all a family, you can call me Xiaochuan in the future!"
If the nail is here, I'm afraid I'll have to vomit again......
Stinky and shameless Mo Xiaochuan, it really deserves its name!
And just when Qin Weiyang was stunned, Mo Xiaochuan had already rushed out of the door of the bar in a hurry, so only Ah Long's cold face was left in front of her.
Qin Weiyang didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only drink with his head down.
Ah Long originally wanted to take the opportunity to warn the nine-tailed fox twice, but suddenly heard a soft voice coming from behind.
Huahua rubbed her eyes, and her little face was full of confusion.
"Aaron, where did Ogawa go?"
......
At this time, Mo Xiaochuan didn't know that Huahua had woken up, he was bent on helping Qin Weiyang remove the fire poison quickly, and he couldn't wait to run towards Yongfa Pawnshop.
However, before Mo Xiaochuan could run to the intersection of Qingshui Street, an incomparably familiar Chang'an van braked sharply and stopped in front of him steadily.
The car door opened, revealing Ma Kaiye's extremely impatient face.
"It's too late to explain, get in the car!"
Mo Xiaochuan was stunned, looked at Ma Kaiye, and then looked at the Yongfa pawnshop not far away, the eggs were broken.
He knew that if he insisted on going to the pawnshop, he would definitely find something terrible by this guy.
In desperation, Mo Xiaochuan could only grit his teeth, stomp his feet, and get into the van.
When the car door closed, Ma Kaiye stepped on the accelerator, accompanied by a shrill siren, whistling past Qingshui Street and rushing to the new gate of the University of Posts.
"What's wrong?"
Mo Xiaochuan felt that he could still ask this sentence calmly at this time, it was simply too cultivated, although he was about to crush his back molars.
But soon, the resentment in Mo Xiaochuan's heart disappeared with Ma Kaiye's answer.
"The third victim appeared, the scene of the crime is near here, and Team Hao instructed me to bring you with me. ”
Obviously, Ma Kaiye's mood was not very smooth at this time, and his tone of voice was as if he had eaten gunpowder.
And Mo Xiaochuan was shocked in his heart and asked, "Where is it?"
"No. 75 Chongwen Road!"
When the words fell, Mo Xiaochuan's eyes immediately widened, if he remembered correctly, it was a supermarket that had been open for less than a year.
Before that, it used to be a KTV.
It's called the New Century.
