Chapter 35: The Seven Deadly Sins
In that case, Erew, why don't you come out to me? What happened to you?
Teacher Yan seemed to see what I was thinking, and without pause, he continued to speak: "Not only in the Black Gold Market, but judging from the information I received, it seems that Yirou has come here in Province H recently, and it is very likely that she happened to be involved in the case I investigated. ”
Hearing him say this, I finally couldn't hold it back, Mr. Yan had been providing me with Yirou's information before, it turned out that he just wanted to lead me towards the case,, it's really cunning!
In that case, I'll just go with him. Anyway, I also know Yirou's traces, and now, just listen to this case that can stump Teacher Yan, what is going on?
"What's the situation this time, the death of that suspect doesn't seem to be a simple accident?"
"What kind of simple accident have you ever seen that can burn a living person like that, the key is that around the scene, there are no hot spots at all!" Teacher Yan shook his head, extinguished the cigarette butt, and rearranged his suit: "This case is a bit unusual. ”
"Unusual? How so? ”
"Because, the prisoner was arrested by the police long before the crime. But even so, there are still victims. With the addition of the suspect in the black gold case who died yesterday, this is already the fourth! ”
, the suspects are all caught, so how can he kill people. Will it be an accomplice committing the crime, or will it be a parody killing? I couldn't stand this old man continuing to sell the case, so I hurriedly urged him to tell the whole story of the case quickly, otherwise I would immediately jump out of the car and leave here.
Teacher Yan smiled helplessly, and then, slightly nervously, "Gao Fei, have you heard of the Seven Deadly Sins?" ”
The Seven Deadly Sins? Why did you suddenly mention this thing?
The so-called seven deadly sins refer to the seven sources of human sin.
The 13th-century Dominican priest St. Thomas Aquinas enumerated various manifestations of evil. Catholic doctrine states that "according to the views of John Gesian and the religious Gregory I, the great evils that often encounter the faithful are discerned".
"Significant" here means that these evil deeds are the source of evil, such as the thief's desire to be greedy.
These evils were originally written by the Greek theological monk Pang Yifa to describe eight evils that damage one's spirituality: gluttony, lust, greed, anger, laziness, sorrow, conceit, or arrogance.
In the late sixth century, Pope Evinlevus I reduced the eight sources of sin to seven, sorrow and laziness, conceit and arrogance, and jealousy. The order is: arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed.
In Dante's Divine Comedy, these seven crimes are also clearly categorized. And my favorite Hollywood star, Brad . Pete, once starred in a movie, is called
However, I could never have imagined why this case was related to the Seven Deadly Sins.
Lao Yan sighed and finally told me the whole story. The case started a month ago.
At that time, there was a guy with an ID named Fan Chen, who posted a post called the Seven Deadly Sins on a well-known irrigation website.
The content of the post is quite long, and after summing it up, it says that God will come to the mortal world, wander the city, and give seven people a holy fire to burn away the sins contained in their bodies. And these seven people represent the seven original sins of the world: arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust.
What's even more exaggerated is that the guy called "Fan Chen" has an address bar corresponding to each sin. After his post, six of the columns were empty, and only the arrogant column was filled with a definite address information.
"Arrogance: Dormitory in the living quarters of the Normal University of Province H."
Unfortunately, on the night of this post, in the student dormitory of the Normal University of H Province, there was a murder, a science boy was found tragically dead in the dormitory toilet, the whole person curled up, as if he had been boiled, red, and the skin was covered with a large number of red bubbles.
Some of the boys' skin and flesh are in a charred black state, and they are even glued together with the bathroom tiles, and when they are pulled slightly, their blood-colored skin is revealed, and the scene is extremely terrifying.
After a forensic investigation, the boy was burned by the heat, which caused a large rupture of his internal organs and caused his death, but bizarrely, the bathroom did not have any combustibles. And the fire point that can be recognized at the first scene is precisely the boy himself.
The boy who died, named Yu You, male, 21 years old, was a well-known student in the Department of Mathematics, arrogant, domineering, reluctant to make friends with others, and even more incompatible with the dormitory.
According to the testimony of his roommate, before the incident, Yu Youben was studying hard in the dormitory, but around midnight, he suddenly became very manic, sweating constantly, and turning on the air conditioning in the bedroom to the lowest level even helped.
Yu You thought he was suffering from heat stroke and wanted to go to the bathroom to take a shower, but he didn't expect that after going in, he never came out. The surveillance video of the dormitory at that time proved that during this period, there were indeed no suspicious people entering and leaving the boys' dormitory.
There have indeed been cases of spontaneous combustion of the human body abroad, but most of them are caused by spontaneous combustion caused by inadvertent contamination with chemicals such as white phosphorus.
As we all know, white phosphorus has a very low ignition point, and it has the potential to burn even when exposed to air. For example, most of the ghost fires that are prevalent among the people in our country are misreported by the ignorant masses because of the blue light emitted after the combustion of white phosphorus.
But at the scene of Yu You's death, no such substances were found! Moreover, Yu You was in the bathroom at the time, if it was a simple white phosphorus fire, he would definitely be the first to extinguish the fire with water, and it was impossible to be stupid enough to be burned alive!
Therefore, the theory of white phosphorus is self-defeating, and the matter has come to this point, and the cause of Yu You's death has become a mystery.
How exactly did he die? What did you experience before you died? Perhaps, only he knows.
In the end, the police believed that the person who posted on the forum was suspected of committing a major crime. Since he could have predicted the specific location of the case before the incident, this person called "Fan Chen" is absolutely inseparable from Yu You's death.
Through the tracing of the user's IP, the address named Fan Chen was quickly found, and he was ready to be arrested in accordance with the law.
Unexpectedly, just as the police were about to leave, this guy named "Fan Chen" took the initiative to go to the police station to turn himself in, confess his crime, and confessed to the fact that he killed Yu You.
He repeatedly emphasized that he was only a messenger sent by heaven to the mortal world, and in addition to Yu You, there were six other people who would receive God's holy fire to cleanse the world of the seven sins of the world.
Yu You is just the beginning, and after that, there will be six more people who will be burned alive by themselves in the same way.
The police quickly controlled "Fan Chen" and blocked his IP account and the post in accordance with the law. However, the matter is far from over.
Almost every once in a while, on different Tieba forums, there will be a new guy who calls himself mortal, and publishes a new post called the Seven Deadly Sins, the content of the post is exactly the same as the first one, the only difference is the address information after that.
Every time a new post appears, the address information corresponding to the seven deadly sins under it will be updated. And almost within a day of the post being updated, in that area, a new deceased person will appear.
The second murder occurred in an ATM, a man named Bai Qi, divorced his wife, rushed to the ATM late at night, and wanted to withdraw all the deposits, but he didn't expect to be burned to death in front of the ATM for no reason, and the surveillance screen just recorded this strange scene.
At the moment when he took out the banknotes, Bai Qi seemed to twitch, shaking violently, and as the frequency became more and more large, he fell to the ground, and the banknotes in his hands, including his body, actually caught fire.
The flames were so intense that they almost burned down the ATM machine in front of them!
And Bai Qi, the evil he represents, is greed, and the ATM where he died happened to be expected by a certain post.
In the third murder, the death was of an Internet addict teenager who had been staying in an Internet café for a whole month. Still late one night, he was found burning the box of the Internet café, and the evil he represented was laziness.
Since Mr. Yan took over the case, four people have been killed by the same method.
Unfortunately, the murderer of the Black Gold case happens to be the fourth, and the evil he represents happens to be lust.
In the dark, everything seems to be predestined.
