Ling Tian looked back, there was a small trash can over there, the lid on it had been damaged, and there was an obvious crack on the barrel, through which he could see the dirt-colored garbage inside.

Naturally, it will not be the garbage can that speaks, but the child who hides behind the garbage can, revealing only one eye.

"Living, ghost?"

Ling Tian raised his voice, and the child seemed to be frightened, and hid behind the trash can again. The small trash can tightly covered his body.

The silence allowed him to hear the child behind the trash can nervously trying to escape as he approached.

It's just that the trash can is all empty, and obviously it doesn't have a strong sense of security that the trash can gives him.

Rubbing his face, revealing a smile that he thought was kind, Ling Tian slowly walked around the trash can. When he saw the scene behind the trash can, he couldn't help but be stunned.

A child of about three years old was looking at him in fear, and the child's whole body was very blurry, as if a gust of wind could blow it away. And underneath the child's phantom, there is also a child who looks exactly the same.

It's just that the child is kneeling on the ground, his head hanging down on his chest, his hands are tied behind his back, and if it weren't for his head leaning on the trash can, he would probably have fallen down long ago.

The corpse, the body of a child, the body of a murdered child.

Ling Tian breathed heavily, the child's soul had been here for an unknown amount of time, as soon as the night wind blew, it was already close to dissipating, but the fear on his face was so obvious.

It was the first time he had seen his soul dissipate, and he didn't make any movements, just watched quietly.

The fear on the child's face was only because of the residue, in fact, the soul had already been shattered, and this shattering, he could not do anything at all.

Standing until the child's soul was completely taken away by the wind, Ling Tian slowly took out the phone.

"Horse team, a corpse has been found here."

The tone was calm, but Ma Xiao on the other end of the phone could hear the anger hidden in his tone.

In about 20 minutes, several police cars stopped beside Ling Tian, and the group began to work. Ling Tian took a few steps back and moved out of the way, but his gaze remained on the child's body and did not leave.

"Smoke?" Ma Xiao walked behind Ling Tian and patted him on the shoulder as if comfortingly.

took the cigarette and took a hard breath, watching the smoke in his mouth drift away like the soul of the child just now, Ling Tiancai spoke in a cold voice: "What's the matter?" ”

"According to the current situation, the child should be alive and fixed behind the trash can, the time should be 6 or 7 hours ago, and the details will wait until further investigation."

Ma Xiao paused for a moment, a little hesitant: "Hmm, hmm." ”

"Hmm, what?"

"This is the third case this month, and the victims are all children, about 2 to 3 years old, and they died, and the cause of death is similar."

Ling Tian was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask what fixation meant, but he was suddenly distracted by Ma Xiao's words. He finally turned to Ma Xiao, his eyes full of disbelief.

Ma Xiao nodded heavily and sighed: "And we don't have any clues yet, you, can you communicate with their souls, there can be no more victims." ”

Shaking his head, his gaze turned to the child who had been placed in the body bag: "Their souls have dissipated. ”

"Huh?"

"I want to join!"

"What?"

"I'm going to join this case."

The joy in Ma Xiao's eyes flashed: "Okay, I will let you join in the name of the special adviser, but, but you must also sign a confidentiality agreement first, after all, this case is not suitable for publication." ”

Ling Tian nodded, his eyes followed the body bag containing the child and entered the police car: "Okay, I agree." ”

Now he understands a little that maybe the so-called good luck is this.

Early the next morning, Ling Tian rushed to the police station, and in the office, it was already full of policemen, seeing him joining, a small number of policemen who knew him were happy, but most of the policemen discussed with each other with doubts.

As he said last night, after Ma Xiao introduced Ling Tian's name, he only said a special adviser before talking about the case again.

"As we all know, the first case happened 14 days ago, at about 4 a.m. that day, the police platform received a report from a sanitation worker who found a body behind a garbage bin in the middle of Nanshan Road. After receiving the report, colleagues from the 3rd Brigade quickly rushed to the scene. ”

Ma Xiao used the projector to open a photo.

"This is a photo of a 2-year-old child with his hands tied behind his back, kneeling behind a trash can, two homemade extra-long iron nails driven into the crook of the child's legs, and the knees pierced out and straight into the ground, fixing the child's legs to the ground.

Through forensic identification, the child's final cause of death was excessive blood loss, which means that the child was still alive when he was immobilized. ”

Speaking of this, Ma Xiao stopped, his eyes swept over his colleague, Ling Tian also clenched his fists, and now he knew what Ma Xiao meant by fixation.

Ma Xiao changed a photo, this is a chubby little hand, and a crooked big character was drawn with a knife in the palm of his hand: Zhi.

This is the text found in the palm of the child's hand, and the same text was also found in the palm of the two children who died at the end: Hatsu, sex. We don't have a clue about what it means for the time being, but after the scar identification, the scratches on the child's hands became distorted because the child struggled.

In addition, there was no discovery at the scene, and there was no surveillance in the area where the incident occurred, which can confirm that the person we are dealing with is extremely perverted, murderous, and inhumane, and has a very high criminal IQ, and may even have received special training. ”

In the last few words, Ma Xiao gritted his teeth when he said it, and most of the criminal policemen's eyes were red.

After taking a few deep breaths and asking everyone to calm down, Ma Xiao continued to analyze the case.

"These three crimes, the time interval is a week, and the children were found in the early morning, which shows that the criminals have a strong sense of time, combined with the words in the hands of the children and the way of death, it is very ritualistic, everyone can consider this aspect when thinking."

After analyzing the plot in detail, Ma Xiao began to assign tasks, and the criminal police were divided into several groups, one group began to investigate the child's family, the second group looked for witnesses, and the third group re-investigated the place of death, etc.

After everything last night, Ma Xiao turned to Ling Tian: "Ling, Advisor Ling, do you want to add it again?" ”

Ling Tian didn't know much about the criminal investigation, and was about to shake his head when there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the conference room, although the door was violently pushed open, and a policeman hurriedly rushed in.

"The horse team, another victim child has been found."

The people in the conference room all stood up, and Ma Xiao's eyes widened: "Everyone, pay attention, the other party's crime pattern may not be as we analyzed, now all go to the scene." ”
