"Damn it, that damn bastard!" The data bloomed in the air like a butterfly, then slowly fell and scattered everywhere.

"Everyone was deceived by him, everyone couldn't see through him, and together with that Yan Feng, they were also confused by his appearance." His brows furrowed, and he whispered to Haisheng, "What should I do......

"Di-" As he pondered, his computer suddenly went to a loud sound.

Finally!

The sound seemed to be like a life-saving straw that he suddenly found in despair, and he hurriedly turned on the computer and accepted the other party's request for video chat.

"Hello Mr. Xiang, long time no see," a few words of slightly rusty Chinese came from the other end of the video, "Why, it seems that you haven't been doing well lately." ”

It was a kind-looking old man, his face was full of wrinkles, his hair was sparse and gray, and at this moment the old man was wearing a neat suit, and his dress did not look sloppy at all.

"Professor Smith, you're still so spirited." Xiang Haisheng's tone was full of respect, "It's been really bad lately—oh, 'bad' means in a bad mood. ”

"I can see, indeed, there are a lot of doubts in this case," Smith sat up straight, and then said, "I have already read all the information you sent, so let me tell you what I think!" ”

"Okay, you say." Xiang Haisheng hurriedly picked up the paper and pen, looking respectful.

The reason is very simple, this old man with his video is a legend!

He has been a police officer for more than 30 years, has been teaching for more than 50 years, is proficient in six languages, and has solved hundreds of cases large and small, among which even the smallest cases are no less serious than murder cases, and there is no doubt that these cases that others feel unable to start have been revealed in more than a month after passing through his hands.

has been a police officer for more than 30 years, hundreds of cases, and the solving rate is still at an absolute 100 percent, even Xiang Haisheng is also his student.

"First of all, I do have to admit that the murderer you met this time is indeed a relatively cunning opponent, judging from the various cases, it is not surprising that the murderer can play the police around," slowly lit a cigar, exhaled a puff of smoke, he coughed twice, and then said: "Based on the information you provided, I think I must remind you once again - this criminal is very dangerous and cunning, he must have more than ten years of experience in committing crimes, and at least more than 100 cases, It is clear that he belongs to the most difficult type of criminals, leading the wolves to commit crimes constantly, but he is never exposed to the guns of hunters, and when he really exposes himself to you, it means that he has absolute confidence in killing you. ”

"Fortunately, he hasn't confessed to me yet......" Xiang Haisheng sighed with a sigh of relief: "So what does the teacher think I should do?" ”

"First of all, based on your description, I think the modus operandi he used should be the top-level 'probability killing', although this modus operandi only appears in fiction. However, if we remove the fact that the 'Laplace theorem' has been falsified by quantum mechanics, and use some special means to make up for the lack of this theorem, it is indeed possible to complete this kind of murder. After passing the information he consulted into Xiang Haisheng's computer, Smith continued, "Then there is information about the murderer, and since we can basically be sure that this murderer used similar methods to commit crimes, then we might as well continue to dig deeper to find his origin." ”

"These are the materials I have flipped through the serial murder cases that have occurred in China in the past ten years, and I have found some strange things," Xiang Haisheng sent a file called "Qingquan County Accidental Homicide Case" to Xiang Haisheng, who once again spat out a puff of smoke, "In this file, I got a glimpse of some clues." ”

"First of all, let's look at the first case, a man surnamed Yu was found dead in his home, the cause of death was gas poisoning, and the final judgment was that the death was caused by an accident. At that time, this ordinary case did not attract the attention of others, so immediately afterwards, there was a second homicide - still accidental death. ”

Of course, this case was still judged to be an accident, so there was a third case after that...... Fourth ...... It wasn't until the census that people found out that this county obviously doesn't have much population, but its mortality rate is higher than that of other first-tier cities, especially the accidental death rate. ”

"So at that time, some of the police officers secretly investigated, but as the progress progressed, they also felt the darkness hidden in it—it was some kind of darkness that was not afraid of the sun, and even dared to try to engulf the sun," Smith frowned slightly, "and they found that most of the people who died fit one characteristic - they had been dissolved with one of the 'Mr. Mo' they called, and everyone described him as, 'It was a perfect person.'" ”

"Just when those police officers wanted to open an investigation, something even more terrifying happened—the police officers who participated in the investigation at that time also died in various accidents, and they happened in public."

"In this way, the investigation of these dead police officers was made public, and while shocking the local police community, a special task force was quickly formed to investigate, but unfortunately the so-called" Mr. Mo ' did not leave the slightest trace, and what is even more regrettable is that this case did not cause much sensation, because 'probability killing' is indeed very much like a fantasy." Slowly recounting the case in an emotionless voice, Smith took a sip of cold whiskey and continued, "But there is one thing in this case that I still can't ignore, and that is - why did he kill those policemen? ”

"According to his modus operandi, even if those little policemen wanted to break their heads, they would never be able to touch him, but he still did it, and the whole case was exposed, which had to make me consider a possibility - he was deliberately exposed."

"Revealing her whereabouts, laughing at the police who pursued her, and finally disappearing without a trace, her characteristics are about to emerge - extremely intelligent, jealous and conceited, ruthless, and a childish little devil who takes victory and defeat very seriously." The smell of whiskey made him cough twice, and then laughed, "This is actually very interesting, although it is the mentality of every serial murderer, but this point reminds me of another possibility." ”

"Please pay attention to these cases I have marked," he pointed to the information in front of the screen, and when he saw Xiang Haisheng's puzzled gaze, his brows furrowed slightly, and explained: "Haven't you noticed the pattern of these cases?" ”

"The 'Qingquan County Accidental Homicide Case', the 'Huihe City Bloody Handprint Serial Homicide Case', the 'Yuanhe City Extraordinarily Large Burling Serial Homicide Case', and the 'Yunxiang Murder Demon Case' that you are investigating now, these cases all have one thing in common, that is, the time of occurrence is different."

"The murderer of the 'Yunxiang Murder Demon Case' disappeared and was found on June 13, 2000, the murderer of the 'Yuanhe City Extraordinarily Large Burglary Serial Murder Case' began on August 21, 2000 and disappeared on May 28, 2002, and the 'Huihe City Blood Handprint Serial Murder Case' began on September 27, 2002 and disappeared on July 31, 2003," The Qingquan County Accidental Homicide Case, which began on December 26, 2003 and disappeared on June 27, 2005, was killed by the methods used in these four cases: feeding pigs with broken corpses, burglary, camouflaged suicide and probabilistic homicide. Slowly reading out the words written on the document, Smith smiled and asked, "Did you find the clue?" ”

"The four cases all occurred in different time periods, and none of them were repeated, and the length of time between them was directly proportional to the police force invested at that time, and most importantly, in chronological order, it can be seen that the criminal methods are constantly escalating, leaving less information than the other." There was undoubted prestige in the old man's voice, and he continued: "Therefore, can we make a bold speculation that these four cases can be combined? ”

"So with a skeptical mentality, I investigated the archives at that time and found that someone did put forward the conjecture of merging the cases at that time, but it was rejected because the murderers of these four serial murderers were completely different in terms of modus operandi and mentality."

"Indeed, looking at it this way, it is ruled out that the same person committed the crime......" Xiang Haisheng nodded thoughtfully.

"On the contrary, I now suspect that the criminal did it on purpose," Smith shook his head, "the four serial murderers, although they should indeed be different, should have at least two things in common, but the psychology of these four people is not at all connected, which makes me wonder - is this deliberately designed to be like this?" ”

"Thinking of this, I immediately recalled my speculation about him - an experienced wolf, so for him, who knows the police routines well, it is not so difficult to understand that he wants to hide his psychology so that the police do not make the decision to merge the case."

"So my suggestion is to put these cases together and then closely monitor all disappearances since June 27, 2005, and of course this is based on the fact that he is still committing crimes – if he stops there, then even I will definitely not be able to find him." After coming to his conclusion, Smith thought for a moment and continued: "As for the analysis of him as a person, he should not have any characteristics, which means that even micro-expression experts cannot read information from him, and this is his biggest characteristic. ”

"Exactly!" Xiang Haisheng was very excited, "Teacher, you're right, this Wen Yifan is exactly the same as what you said!" ”

"Then he is very suspicious, you must be careful," Smith frowned, said solemnly, "we have no evidence for the time being, we can only rely on our own conjecture, so there is no way to inform the higher-ups, but I think the day when the truth will be revealed seems to be not far away." ”

"Also, remember, as soon as he reveals himself from your presence, notify me immediately."
