Wang Lei didn't care about Ellie, this was just a small episode in this homicide case. Julie went to make coffee, and the three men sat in the living room and listened to Yang Qian and Wang Shui'er say Ellie's vinegar smile one by one.

While listening, he raised his hand to pick up the coffee handed over by Julie, Wang Lei was suddenly stunned, Julie almost let go of her hand, and let the coffee cup pour directly onto Wang Lei's pants.

"Wait, you repeat what you just said, be more detailed, and try to complete every sentence of Ellie." Wang Lei smiled apologetically at Julie, took the coffee, but the person stood up, obviously attaching great importance to this matter.

cleared her throat, this time it was Wang Shui'er who was talking alone, although she didn't understand what Wang Lei meant, but she said it slowly, trying to recall Ellie's original words.

Coleman and Raymond didn't hear anything useful in this description, and looked at Wang Lei in surprise, and the three women didn't understand it either.

Unconsciously waved his hand, Wang Lei didn't mean to explain: "Raymond, have you checked the performance of the top 2 deceased in school?" ”

Of course, this is a necessary link, and the surrounding relationship of the deceased is often a must-check item. Raymond nodded and asked incomprehensibly: "The top 2 deceased and Christine both have very good grades and perform well in school, and they belong to the typical representatives of good students." ”

"Then do you know what singing competition awards they have won, if you don't know Lu Dao, just check it immediately?" Wang Lei didn't answer any questions at this time, what he needed was to solve a mystery in his heart.

Raymond was caught off guard by Wang Lei's question, and no one would notice this kind of question when investigating the case. The deceased won several school awards, what role did it play in the detection of the case!

However, since Wang Lei proposed it, Raymond immediately called a few team members and asked them to go to the school of the first two deceased immediately, and be sure to give feedback immediately after finding out.

Coleman asked one after another, as a veteran agent, although Coleman did not understand the meaning of Wang Lei's question, he had a keen sense that there must be something strange in it.

Shrugging his shoulders, Wang Lei looked at Cowman and the three women who were very puzzled: "For the time being, I don't know what to say, let's wait for the results on Raymond's side." ”

Leaned back on the sofa casually and began to close his eyes to recuperate, Wang Lei no longer paid attention to Coleman and the women in front of him who looked like ants on a hot pot.

Raymond called one after another, causing several team members to complain. Because of Don? The consequences of Cheadle's speech led to a series of consequences, and the school's principal was deeply wary of police arrivals.

It's also a shame that this time the police need to know that there is no privacy involved, on the contrary, these have been the pride of the two schools and have been widely publicized to the outside world.

Fifteen minutes later, the players on both sides communicated the results to Raymond, A.J. Cook and Siena almost simultaneously. Fanning has participated in school singing competitions and won first prizes.

While telling Wang Lei the news, Raymond himself was still thinking about it, but saw Wang Lei jump up: "That's it, Raymond, the connection between the three deceased is here." ”

Everyone seems to have understood, but it is not very clear. Coleman tried to ask, "You mean the murderer will compete in a singing competition from three schools?" Students or teachers? Wang Lei, are you sure that the 3 cases are the same murderer? ”

Of course, Wang Lei didn't mean this, the murderer probably didn't have the energy to go back and forth to several schools far apart, and he had to make sure that he didn't miss the victim's game time.

Paul called again, and the Hoover Building had some information on San Francisco's neo-Nazi organization "Fruits of Victory," which had been set up by several hippies to oppose certain San Francisco statutes, and could not have had anything to do with the case, believing that their claims were just a boo-ew.

"The first thing we should determine is whether this case and the case of the first two deceased are the same murderer." Wang Lei is right, because in addition to the Nazi symbols, the three cases actually have many differences.

The first two deceased could be judged from the anesthetic tested in their bodies that the murderer beat the deceased while he was unconscious, and then strangled the deceased.

Only Christine and Tofer? In Grace's double corpse case, the murderer shot his hand and fired a total of 3 shots before and after. At a cursory glance on the surface, it is easy to think that the murderer of the double corpse case is imitating the former or planting a blame.

"But haven't you noticed?" Wang Lei wrote a line of words on the whiteboard, and several people got up and surrounded them, and now everyone understands it completely.

Wang Lei just drew the range of the murderer's choice of victims - 14 to 17 years old, the winner of the singing competition, a black girl.

"It's a very specific category, so I think the killer is the same person." Wang Lei is very satisfied with his conclusion, and the current evidence can explain all the above problems.

The murderer should have monitored and tracked the victims, and even had a way to contact the victims and gain their trust, although Wang Lei couldn't think of the specific methods used by the murderer for the time being, he knew that it was not difficult to do this.

He had one of the biggest problems to solve: "Raymond, Cowman, do you know where these little girls might stand together and sing?" ”

This problem is the most important link in the whole case, the murderer must have a place where he can see and approach these victims at the same time, and only when the lock of this link is opened, the case will be connected before and after.

Coleman and Raymond couldn't answer for a while, they rarely came into contact with this aspect, and the two of them had an idea, took out their mobile phones and began to look up on the Internet.

"Yes." Julie despised the two men who didn't care about their home at first glance: "The choir of the church. They're all in this community, they're all singing great, and they're definitely going to join the choir. ”

Wang Lei rarely enters the church, or unless there is a case in the church that requires his intervention, Wang Lei will not step in, which is why the three men did not take this into account.

"Gather your men, Raymond, and I'll give you a profile of the murderer, so that your next investigation will have a focus." Wang Lei waved his hand, time was tight, and he would take care of the needs of the police first.

While waiting for the homicide department to gather, Wang Lei sorted out his thoughts again, and Coleman and the women themselves pondered on the side, trying to understand Wang Lei's thoughts, which is the key to solving the case, and it is also where they need to learn.

More than a dozen policemen from the homicide department all stood in the small garden at the door of Wang Lei, there were too many people, and the living room was crowded and uncomfortable, so Wang Lei simply used this place as a place to explain.

"Even in the face of a little girl, the murderer still used anesthetics, which shows that the murderer is very cowardly and has no confidence in himself, I judge that in real life, the murderer is not tall, even thin." For each item, Wang Lei tried his best to explain it so that the police could have a deeper understanding.

"Christine was chased by a gun and then beaten, and then shot, indicating that the murderer was very worried about the victim's resistance, he was very timid in daily life, and basically did not look at people, and his beating of the unconscious victim was to vent the resentment of being called around and drunk."

"The murderer is a very taciturn person in life, but he has a connection with the community church, there is no doubt about it, maybe he is a volunteer of the church, maybe he is delivering goods to the church, you have to pay attention to verify." Julie's opinion was adopted by Wang Lei without hesitation, and she and Wang Shui'er were very happy to stand behind.

"You should pay special attention during the investigation process, the murderer is very smart, which can be seen from the identity of the victim he selected. All the killers chose were students with excellent grades and good behavior. ”

This kind of female student is generally commonly known as a "good girl". They focus on their studies and hobbies, whether it's school or the community, and they generally have little interaction with other people because they don't have time.

The lack of communication has led to the supple and peaceful personalities of these obedient girls, so they are naturally not bold and easily deceived.

"He's a black man, between the ages of 25 and 45, and he's probably going to impersonate a talent scout, a record company, or something like that, and you're going to send someone to get to know the other people in the choir, especially the 15 or 6-year-old black girl who has won a singing competition, and I think someone will turn him down." As soon as Wang Lei finished speaking, Raymond jumped out.

What he objected to was the assertion of black people, the urban area of Los Angeles had changed, and if any policeman accidentally said that he was looking for a black man at this time, I am afraid that it would be possible to have a large-scale ** immediately.

"This wasn't an interracial massacre, and we're now pretty much sure it's a serial murder." Wang Lei stared at Raymond deeply, and the word black provoked his sensitive nerves.

This time, not only for, but even Coleman and Julie know that in a series of murders, the murderer generally does not select victims across races, and even if there is, unless the murderer's psychology has been distorted to a limit, in this case, it is difficult for the murderer to leave no traces.

Raymond, who was behind him, answered a phone call and patted Wang Lei on the shoulder with a pale face: "Another girl is missing." ”

"What?" Wang Lei was surprised, Los Angeles was already sitting in the crater: "When?" ”

"Yesterday night. However, the first two deceased were all missing for a few days before being thrown out, and I guess the little girl may still be alive now. Raymond comforted himself that, of course, there was a chance that the missing would survive.

Coleman was speechless when he heard this, such an important matter would drag on for a day to be reported, could it be that the families of the missing don't watch TV and don't listen to the news!
