Early the next morning, Chen Zhong left Karen a sum of money and told her to call him if she had something, and left Chicago to return to New York under Karen's reluctant gaze.

In the conference room, Beckett and the others discuss the progress of the Doomsday Killer's case.

Beckett said to Chen Chong: "In the two cases, did the deceased find anything? ”

Chen Zhong took a document and said, "Iron oxide was found in the wounds of the fruit vendor and the four dismembered knights. ”

Seeing that everyone didn't understand the meaning, they had to continue to explain: "No one has used iron weapons since the Middle Ages, and rust was found in the wound, which shows that the murder weapon is likely to be an antique, and from the analysis of the shape of the wound, it may be a double-edged sword." ”

"Esposito went and looked up places like museums to see if there were any thefts and if they could find the murder weapon," Beckett said. Kassel, you talked to the religious scholars, do you have any clues? ”

Cassell flipped through the notes he had made, "Between the first and sixth verses of chapter 6 of the book of Revelation, there is a description of the Four Horsemen. Chapter 13 has a description of the case of the seven serpents, 'And I saw another beast with ten horns and seven heads.' As for the intestines on the scales, the Bible is full of descriptions of the scales of justice, probably from here. The murderer is judging humanity by God's methods. ”

"Okay, let's continue to investigate according to the known clues and solve this case as soon as possible."

In the rooftop cafeteria of the art center, Professor Geller said, "It's already started, Travis, you look at the people around you, they're scared, and soon you'll understand that we're helping them." ”

At this time, the beautiful waitress Erin walked over and asked with a smile, "Travis, do you still need coffee?" ”

Travis smiled at Erin in the same way, "Oh yes, thank you. ”

After the waitress Erin left, Professor Geller said angrily, "Travis, is this what you want?" You have been chosen as an apostle of God, and you are still attracted to women, you disappoint me so much. ”

Travis ignored Professor Geller's words, and after the meal, he and Erin made an appointment to hang out together for the evening.

The police station not only brought back information about the murder weapon, but also brought two people back with him.

Cassel covered his wallet vigilantly, and after Beckett shook hands with Peter, he said, "It's nice to meet you, Peter and Neil." Haven't you been investigating art and things like that? Why come back here. ”

Peter said, "The Doomsday Killer case you are investigating overlaps with the one we are investigating, and Neil and I are looking for a stolen ancient sword and a historic Bible. We happened to meet Esposito, so we came over to see if there was any possibility of cooperation. ”

Kassel asked with interest: "Ancient swords and Bibles, are these two things very valuable?" ”

Peter motioned to Neil to explain to everyone, and Neil took off his top hat and put it on the table, and said with a charming smile: "According to legend, in 81-96 A.D., the Christians were persecuted by the Roman Emperor Tumishan, who banished John, one of the twelve disciples of Jesus, to the island of Patmos, where John saw all kinds of visions, and he wrote them down, which is the book of Revelation. The lost ancient sword was the weapon used by the Romans during their persecution of John, and it is said to be stained with John's blood. The lost Bible was written by John's own hand, and the Bible was completed with the book of Revelation, and this book became the first complete Bible. The Vatican is also looking for these two objects, but they are kept secret in the hands of private collectors, and the whereabouts of these two antiquities are only known because they are lost, so their value is immeasurable. ”

After listening to Neil's introduction, everyone was shocked by the origin of the ancient sword and the scriptures, but they didn't expect these two things to come from such a big deal, and they both involved Jesus.

Chen Chong also aroused his interest in these two antiquities, such a special thing has a great chance of being able to bring out the special equipment of this world, and he has to find this doomsday killer first and snatch the things in his hand.

In the evening in a candlelit romantic restaurant, Travis and the beautiful hostess Erin. Bell was eating dinner together.

"Travis, are you close to your parents?"

"Yes, we were close until I was fourteen and they died in a car accident."

"Oh, I'm really sorry."

"Nothing, my sister has been raising me ever since

Erin took Travis's hand and said to him, "It's pitiful, but luckily you have each other's company. ”

Travis took Erin's hand back, and the two of them opened the dining room and returned to Travis's apartment, and as soon as they entered, the two began to untie each other, fighting from the door to the bed in the bedroom, but they did not notice Professor Geller's presence.

Travis, who woke up in the morning, found that Erin was gone, thinking that she had gone home first, and went to the kitchen after stretching, intending to have some coffee.

When he came to the kitchen, he saw Erin lying on the kitchen floor with her hands and feet tied and a towel in her mouth, and Professor Geller standing aside.

Travis knelt beside Erin and begged, "No, please, let her go, I like her." ”

Geller said viciously, "You should consider the consequences before you defile her, this is the best outcome for her, and she will be part of God's plan." ”

Travis nodded with tears in her eyes.

……

When Chen Chong was doing morning exercises with Alexis, the phone rang, and after connecting and chatting a few words, Chen Chong, who hung up the phone, said helplessly: "It was the dispatch of the police station who told us to go to the garden of the coral wall, where the gardeners said that they found Greek letters, and there were blood stains on the scene, and Beckett wanted us to go to the scene." ”

"Honey, it's close to the Coral Wall Garden, and we still have thirty minutes."

Chen Zhong pounced on Alexis and said fiercely: "But thirty minutes is not enough, I need an hour." ”

An hour and a half later, Chen Zhong and Alexis arrived at the Coral Wall Garden.

Beckett pointed to his watch and said, "Chen, you're late. ”

Chen Zhong explained: "There is a traffic jam on the road, and there are too many cars in New York now.

Glaring at Alexis snickering, Chen Zhong walked into the cordon with the forensic equipment, and in the open space outside the flower room, there was a circle made of fish, and the Greek letters alpha and omega were drawn in blood.

Chen Zhong found that there was also a little blood on the blade of grass next to him, and notified Beckett and the others, and everyone followed the blood trail and soon came to the door of the flower room.

Through the glass on the door of the flower room, you can see a woman carrying a pair of white angel wings hanging in the air, her mouth is blocked with strips of cloth, and the woman who is tied to the air sees the people outside the flower room, and quickly shakes her head.

Esposito pulled open the door of the flower room, and after a mechanical sound, the woman hanging in the air quickly fell, the spiked collar around her neck pierced into her neck, and the woman was mechanically fixed into the shape of an angel with wings outstretched.

Everyone hurriedly ran over, and Chen revisited her injuries and said to Beckett: "Her jugular vein has been penetrated, and she is dead." ”

Chen Chong, whose ears and eyes are more sensitive than ordinary people, said: "Everyone be quiet, I hear strange sounds." ”

After everyone calmed down, Ryan heard the sound coming from a wooden cabinet more than one person tall next to him, and Espositto took out his pistol and aimed it at the cabinet, motioning for Ryan to open the door.

Ryan slammed open the cabinet door, and a lot of bugs flew out of it, a huge number of bugs flew everywhere, Chen Zhong hurriedly took Alexis into his arms and ran out of the flower room.

After everyone ran out, they noticed that the insects flying out of the cabinet were a swarm of locusts.

Cassel took out his notebook, flipped to a page, and said: "Chapters 8 to 10 of the book of Revelation describe the plague of angels and locusts, and it seems that the Doomsday Killer wants to recreate this scene." ”

Beckett said to everyone: "Bring everything from the scene back to the laboratory for examination, everyone pay attention to confidentiality, this case has attracted very high social attention, I don't want TV stations and reporters to bother me every day." ”
