Ma Xiao stood up, walked to the whiteboard on the side, took out a pen and began to write and read: "The suspect is a female, with a younger grade, who should have conceived a child or worked as a nanny, may have received training such as modeling, and usually pays great attention to her own image, due to her cruel methods, she may have been psychologically traumatized, and the child may have died." And the place of residence should be within the circle we have demarcated. ”

"It's also possible that her child is buried there." Ling Tian added, pointing to a place in the circle, which was the only cemetery in the city, Wonshan Cemetery, which was very expensive due to feng shui and traffic problems.

Ma Xiao nodded: "It's possible, in this case, the woman's economic strength should be very good." ”

Although Ma Xiao has been using words such as may, should and so on, it undoubtedly pointed out the direction for everyone. For a while, everyone was full of energy, as if the fatigue of not sleeping all night had been dispelled.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Ma Xiao looked at Ling Tian: "Is there anything you have to add from your professional point of view?" ”

"The sense of ceremony, the regular circle, the crime scene at the same distance, the cemetery in the middle of the circle, if this is really a mother who has lost her child, will it be a ritual?"

"Most likely, it looks like we finally have a direction. You're fit for this. ”

Ling Tian smiled and didn't speak, he didn't have the professional ability to think of this, just because he knew about the existence of ghosts.

It's just that they all underestimate the city's population, young women and children have died and are buried in Wonsan Cemetery, and there are more than 1,500 people who meet these two conditions.

Although Ma Xiao and others worked very hard, a few days passed, and only less than 500 people were ruled out. This was still under the condition that Ling Tian used Yin Virtue Induction, but even so, Ling Tian did not dare to guarantee that Yin Virtue Induction would be correct, after all, this was only something recorded in the data, and these things might just come from the imagination of his predecessors.

In case something was wrong, Ling Tian felt that he couldn't bear that kind of consequence at all.

But tomorrow, there is a possibility that another child will have an accident.

The deployment of the police force has returned to the protection of children from the exclusion of suspects, and in the circle that has been determined a long time ago, the police force is deployed in the trash cans that can be found, and in addition to this, there are several groups of people on standby.

And Ling Tian and Ma Xiao were both in the group on standby.

After a few days of busyness, Ling Tian's whole person lost weight, and the same fatigue appeared on his face as Ma Xiao. At this time, he was drinking strong tea while looking at the silent walkie-talkie.

Time passed little by little, as if every minute was an ordeal.

The report every half an hour made all the police points seem very normal, and seeing that it was already four o'clock in the morning, a policeman rubbed his eyes: "Ma team, could it be that our actions have alarmed the other party?" ”

Ma Xiao's face was a little heavy, he had already thought of this, after all, a large-scale police mobilization could not hide from anyone at all. But he was even more worried that they had misjudged and that the next place to happen was not here.

Ling Tian didn't speak, his eyes moved from the walkie-talkie to the car window, outside the window was a garbage can, and next to the garbage can sat a policeman pretending to be a drunk, who seemed to be a little impatient at this time, and moved his hands and feet from time to time.

"Wait until 6 a.m." Ma Xiao ordered that in the big city of Ling Tian, at 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning, the streets were already full of people who were in a hurry to fight for their livelihood, and even if someone wanted to do it, it was unlikely.

After all, the suspect is not just trying to kill someone, but also to complete the ritual.

Just as everyone was about to stand for the last two hours, Ma Xiao's phone rang, and with the inaudible voice, Ma Xiao's face was as cold as a frozen lake.

Putting down the phone, Ma Xiao glanced around at everyone: "Something happened." ”

Yes, something happened, the place where the accident happened was a high-rise building, and when Ma Xiao Lingtian and the others arrived, at the corner of the stairs on the 24th floor of the high-rise building, a two-year-old child knelt behind a small garbage can, his head hanging, and his body was covered with blood.

All the policemen were silent, each doing their own thing, and there was a sense of powerless frustration in everyone's minds, and everyone knew that even if the entire Ling Tian police force was mobilized, there was no way to monitor the garbage cans on every floor and every place.

The nails were piercing deep into the floor, and the medical examiners and police were carefully picking them up, trying not to alarm the child's no longer soul.

Ling Tian clenched his fists and kept taking deep breaths, only by calming down could he find the clues.

Sure enough, a trace of anomaly was found.

Ling Tian took two steps forward, and the policemen who were investigating the scene were about to stop them, but they were stopped by Ma Xiao.

Ling Tian walked all the way to the murdered child and stopped, observing the walls that looked dirty because of the long storage of trash cans.

There is a translucent mark on the smudge on the wall, which is not obvious, as if it had been lightly applied with glue.

The imprint was small, and the reason why it caught Ling Tian's attention was because the shape of the imprint, a shape that seemed meaningless to outsiders, evoked his memories.

I once encountered a ghost with missing three souls, and it is easy to die without three souls, but for countless years, people have learned to protect children with missing three souls in special ways.

Drawing such a mark on the back of the child's neck deeply enters the body and forms a birthmark-like existence.

But it is necessary to use yin virtue to draw the imprint.

Soul Seal, that's the name of this sigil.

After comparison, the mark on the wall was exactly the same as the soul protection seal, but he couldn't figure out why the soul protection seal appeared on the wall, it seemed that it could only be printed on the back of the neck to take effect.

What's more, if this was a soul protection seal, how could the child's soul dissipate so quickly.

"Coincidentally, or ......."

Ling Tian couldn't help but read out his voice.

Ma Xiao, who had already been paying attention to him, asked in a low voice, "What did you find?" ”

Glancing at the busy policemen around him, Ling Tian gave Ma Xiao a look, and took him to the side before telling what he had discovered.

Ma Xiao didn't know what the soul protection seal was, and after repeatedly asking about the efficacy of the soul protection seal, he also seemed very puzzled.

"Xiaolong, many people know this soul protection seal?"

Ling Tian shook his head, the information he was able to find, many people could naturally find it too, not to mention that after the soul protection seal was created, it had been circulated for an unknown number of years, and the appearance and efficacy had already been spread.

It's just that there is no Yin De painting, and most of the soul protection seals have no great effect, and even only become psychological comfort.

After telling Ma Xiao about the situation, Ma Xiao, who was originally excited, smiled bitterly again, such clues are of little value, but even so, he still arranged for the police to start looking for such markers at other places where accidents occurred.

Soon, the matter was confirmed, and the Soul Seal appeared in all the locations of the crime.
