After completing the questioning of the elderly, the task force held an emergency meeting to discuss the further possibilities of the case.

Because I was deliberately sent out of the task force by my superiors, I was unable to obtain information about the case. So I had to pin my hopes on Azure again.

While waiting for them to end the meeting, I went out alone in the hallway to smoke a cigarette. At this point, I was both excited and worried. The murderer did it again, and it was two old men, and it was the finger in the dumpling, and this time the finger happened to be Gao Wangming's finger! At this time, I affirmed my previous conjecture about this case even more in my heart.

The murderer must be sending us some kind of ulterior message!

I silently figured out the current murderer's thoughts in my heart: first the dead "Miss", Cai Mingfen, after she was killed and dismembered, her little finger was cut off and found in the dumplings of the old man of the Chen family; The murderer blamed Gao Wangming, waited for him to be arrested and imprisoned, and then robbed him from the police station, then knocked him unconscious, and cut off his little finger, which was found on the dining table of Zhao Guoqiang and Li Suqing......

Littlefinger, why are they all little fingers.

If you follow the logic of the murderer, the murderer used the second elder of the Chen family to blame Gao Wangming, but in fact, the person he wanted to really correspond to was actually Cai Mingfen!

In other words, we have always ignored the existence of Cai Mingfen, we have always thought that she is just one of the most useless chess pieces in this case, and we thought that all the clues and fetters should point to Gao Wangming and the second elder of the Chen family......

In my excitement, I accidentally knocked out the unsmoked cigarette in my hand.

Actually, this is not the case, we are thinking wrong. We forgot to thoroughly investigate the relationship between Cai Mingfen and the two elders of the Chen family. Because according to the murderer's thinking, it should be: Cai Mingfen's finger - the second elder of the Chen family, Gao Wangming's finger - the second elder of the Zhao family!

From the beginning, it was as if we had escaped into a boundless darkness, and the murderer was like a big hand hidden behind this dark curtain, manipulating the development of everything all the time. In order not to let us fall into the mistake of detective thinking, he even took great risks to make a foreshadowing for this case, and this foreshadowing is to allow the police to find the connection between the two cases and let us match.

I could see the light in the darkness at this moment. It wasn't intense, but it was enough to pull a small opening in the darkness and let in more light.

This feeling of clarity makes me feel comfortable. I feel like we've found the way to find the truth.

The task force and the police comrades in charge of the case in this bureau held a meeting. They walked out of the conference room, and I could see that everyone's faces were not very good, especially the technical analysis of the task force, which was pale.

I saw Azure in the crowd, and I quietly waved to her and motioned for her to come over. Weilan also saw me at a glance, but at this time she seemed to be still immersed in thinking about the case.

"Shao Feng, you're right." Before I could speak, Azure suddenly said to me.

I know what she's talking about. What she meant was that she accepted my previous assumptions about the killer's motives: for now, she also believed that the killer was sending a message.

I cast a tacit glance at her. Then I pulled her into my office.

"The murderer's actions are full of a ...... A sense of ritual. Probably due to her excitement, she seemed to be getting a little warm, and took off her coat as she spoke. She was wearing a slim turtleneck sweater inside, and her slender and beautiful figure was perfectly highlighted.

Seeing me staring at her in a daze, Azure suddenly understood the meaning in my eyes. Her face turned red all of a sudden, and she rebuked a little embarrassedly: "Shao Feng, don't make trouble." I'm serious about analyzing the case with you now. ”

I immediately straightened up and nodded solemnly. Make a reckless expression.

"The murderer is no longer simply committing a crime at this moment. Perhaps from the perspective of others, killing people and mutilating corpses, cutting off the little finger and putting it in dumplings for people to eat, these seem like a psychopathic practice. But why is it always the little finger, and why is it always the old man who eats the little finger?

I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of ritual. It seems to be a method full of religious connotations to make people eat little fingers, or it is just for simple perverted eccentricities, to satisfy their sadistic psychology, and to show the police their strength,"

She frowned, stared at me, and continued:

"Either that, or just to get a message across to us. Shao Feng, your previous conjecture was not bad at all. Now I couldn't agree more. She stood up and patted me on the shoulder.

"What do you think the message is?" I asked her the question I wanted to ask the most.

"I'm sorry, I don't have an idea yet. And as far as the current situation is concerned, we really did not investigate the direct relationship between Cai Mingfen and the second elder of the Chen family before. A young lady, two serious old men, they have nothing to do with each other in this life. ”

"And what did you just learn from those two old men this time?" I asked eagerly.

"There are very few valuable leads. The dumplings were delivered to the old man's house by a neighbor, and we just quickly sent someone to the neighbor, who said that the plate of dumplings was sent by a young man, and asked them to send it to the Zhao family next door, and gave them a reward of 20 yuan. Azure said.

"The man's facial features? Do you have? ”

"They said the young man was wearing a coat and hat, and he didn't see much of his face or anything. There aren't enough value clues for us to profile. She said helplessly.

"That's all I know the most at the moment, if it's okay, I'll go first, and I'll have to go back and look at the dossier again." Azure picked up her coat and put it on her body and walked out the door.

That's what she is. When she got serious, no one wanted to talk much, she just wanted to shut herself in her room and think. So I didn't say much, nodded, and let her go.

I sat down and tried to light a cigarette, only to find that I had run out of cigarettes. I shook my head helplessly and walked out of my office. I walked out of the police station to go to the small grocery store across the street to buy a pack of cigarettes. The boss is already getting ready to close. Because of the proximity and convenience, many "old smoking guns" in the police station buy cigarettes here, and the boss is also familiar with us policemen.

"Boss, there is no Yuxi." I asked. As he spoke, he reached for the wallet in his underwear pocket.
