Twenty minutes later, in the study.
Feng Bujue was sitting behind his desk, flipping through the booklet that Officer Mark had used to record his confession. Detective Schofield, on the other hand, sat in a chair next to the table.
The two of them "requisitioned" the room to interview the suspects individually.
"Based on the criminal evidence and relevant information that has been confirmed in this case, we can try to make a logical portrayal and judgment of the criminal psychology of the perpetrator. From data collection, to inductive analysis, to extrapolating results, these three steps are the basic steps. Specifically, it is the use of the deductive method ...... "Feng Bujue is telling Schofield with great interest (showing off) the theory of criminal psychoanalysis."
"Oh! Deduction! I've heard of it. Schofield finally heard a clear word, and he continued, "Is it a concept from the Sherlock Holmes novel?" ”
"No, 'deductive' is just a way of saying it, and the word can mean many things." Feng Bujue shook his head, "In this case, what we need to use more is not the deductive method of Sherlock Holmes, but the deductive method in the so-called 'criminal psychological portrait'. ”
"Uh...... What's that......" Schofield asked.
"Inferring the psychological characteristics of the offender, and then outlining some of his/her physical characteristics, personality traits, daily habits, etc., so as to reduce the number of suspected objects and delineate the scope of suspects." Feng Bujue explained: "This is not a science in the strict sense, but it is indeed a fairly advanced detection concept. He licked his lips, "The deduction method in the criminal mind portrait is divided into two steps, the first step is to communicate with the suspect through guò to obtain the main evidence. These can be elements of conduct or traces of criminal psychology; The second step is to start from the general principles of criminal psychology, forensic technology, and investigation. Associate the relationship between criminal behavior or traces of criminal psychology and a particular suspect and draw profiling conclusions.
Of course, there are five steps and more than a dozen key points in the specific portrait steps, so I won't go into details, and I can't finish it in a short time. Anyway...... I guess...... Ten years later, these courses will be transferred to the police academy curriculum...... In the future, it will be the world of academics, and those who can write reports will rise faster. ”
Knock knock -
Just as Feng unconsciously pushed the topic farther and farther away, there was a knock on the door, and Officer Dempdie said outside the door, "Lady Carol has arrived, sir." ”
Schofield and Jue looked at each other. The latter nodded quickly, and the detective turned his face and shouted outside, "Please let her in." ”
The door opened, and Mrs. Carol entered. Her eyes were red and swollen, tears had not dried, and most of the expensive makeup on her face had been wiped off by the handkerchief, and the face, which was not even pretty, looked even more haggard at the moment.
"I'm sorry to bother you again and again at times like this." When Feng Bujue spoke. Templedie had closed the door behind Carol from outside the study.
Carol replied, "It's okay...... You are also the duty. She replied in a low, slightly hoarse voice, which was also a sequelae of prolonged crying.
"Hmm...... Please sit down first. Feng Bujue stretched out his hand and gestured to the seat opposite him.
Schofield stepped forward just in time to help the lady in her chair. Let him sit down.
"Thank you." Carol whispered to the detective and sat down in the seat directly opposite Feng Buju.
"I'll get straight to the point." As soon as the other party sat down, Feng Buyi said, "The murderer is someone in this villa." It's right among us. ”
Carol is also mentally prepared for this. No matter how sad she was, she wouldn't even be able to guess something so obvious.
"Yes...... Who? Carol asked, trembling.
"I did think of some assumptions." Feng Bujue said. "But before I'm absolutely sure, I'd like to hear from you."
"Me?" Carol wondered.
"Yes." Feng Bujue asked, "I want to ask you to tell me, who do you think the murderer is?" ”
Carol's eyes flickered and her gaze flickered, and she was obviously thinking about something, but she replied, "I...... I do not know...... Why are you asking me? ”
"Hehe......" Feng Bujue smiled, "Since you don't want to say it, then I'll explain my reasoning." He leaned back in his chair and said in a relaxed tone, "I think...... Kill Dennis. Lovecraft's people, that's you, Ms. Carol. ”
"What!" Carol was furious, and her voice unconsciously rose, "How dare you say that! How much I love my husband! My heart is broken when he dies, and you accuse me of being a murderer! ”
"According to your testimony...... Feng Buju, unaffected by the other party's agitation, answered to himself, "before you open the door, the door is locked. When you open the door and see the body, you don't enter the room at all, and you collapse in the hallway in fright. He shrugged, "But when we arrived at the scene, all the windows in the room were locked from the inside, and there was no other exit, except for you, who had the key...... Who else could it be? He deliberately said nonsense, "I see...... You kill people first, then lock the room, go out and dispose of the murder weapon and wash the blood off your hands, then turn back and pretend to be the discoverer of the corpse to clear your suspicion. ”
"You...... You're talking this complete nonsense! Carol was so angry that she couldn't speak, "Why should I kill my husband?" ”
"Motives...... I guess it's because of love and hate......" Feng Buju raised the pamphlet in his hand and waved it lightly, "according to what Officer Mark asked...... You and Dennis don't have a child, do you? ”
"Yes! So what! Is that illegal? Carol asked rhetorically.
"A couple in their 40s, the man has a wealthy family, and the woman's family is even more wealthy. Under the premise of not having any life pressure, if the husband and wife are in love, why do they have no children...... "Feng Bujue muttered, although it is not illegal...... But very strange, don't you think? ”
"This is our private matter!" Carol said angrily.
"Is it a private matter...... Heh......" Feng Bujue continued casually, "Then I, an outsider, can't help but continue to guess...... Does your husband love him as much as you do...... Loved by you? Did he marry you for any other purpose? As you know, the Lovecraft family is considered rich in the eyes of the average person, but it is ...... compared to your family" (to be continued)
