Chapter 3: The Horror of the Wise Master

"Hoo ......"

After a long time, Wu Na exhaled a breath of turbid air and calmed down completely.

She took out a stack of materials from the drawer and handed them to Bai Zhengqing, saying, "These are the first three materials of the serial murder case, you can take it and study it." ”

She didn't mention the case ten years ago, but wanted to examine Bai Zhengqing through this serial murder case.

She wanted to know how powerful a smart master really was.

Bai Zhengqing took the information and looked through it directly.

The first case occurred in the early hours of March 20, 2021.

The crime took place in an old neighborhood.

The deceased was also a young woman.

He was also tied to the bed.

It's just that the way she died was different from this case.

She was dismembered and then spliced back together, not completely shattered.

And the one used to dismember the body was a saw for sawing wood.

According to a forensic examination, the blood inside the body had been drained.

The deceased was an orphan with no relatives, no boyfriend, and the only girlfriend also had an alibi.

There were no signs of burglary at the scene.

According to the description of the deceased's colleagues, the woman was very withdrawn and did not like to interact with people, so she did not have any friends in the company.

Estimated strength of the murderer: Medium shock.

……

In the second case, the deceased was also a young woman.

Also tied to the bed

The murder weapon was also a saw.

But this time the body was much smaller, and the whole body was cut into 108 pieces.

Estimated strength of the murderer: Medium shock.

……

In the third case, the same type of deceased, the same tools of the crime, but the body was cut into more pieces, and the whole body was broken into more than 500 pieces.

Estimated strength of the murderer: Medium shock.

……

Bai Zhengqing kept looking through the files until he finished reading the materials of the three cases, and he handed them back to Wu Na.

"What? Don't you need to take it back and take a slow look? Wu Na looked at him suspiciously.

Bai Zhengqing shook his head and said, "No, I remember all the content." ”

Wu Na was shocked in her heart, and suddenly had a new understanding of Zhishi.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is an incredible ability, but in the wisdom of the master, it is a very ordinary ability.

Wu Na suppressed the shock in her heart and asked, "Do you have any ideas?" ”

She just asked casually.

It's been more than a year since this serial murder case happened, and the fact that it hasn't been solved so far shows how difficult it is.

Even if she is a wise master, she doesn't believe that the other party can find a flaw with a glance at the file.

It's just that her understanding of the wise master is still too one-sided.

Bai Zhengqing thought for a while and said, "Is the captain sure that this is a serial murder case because of the modus operandi and the characteristics of the deceased?" ”

Wu Na nodded.

Bai Zhengqing continued: "I think there is another possibility. ”

"What possibility?" Wu Na was startled, staring at Bai Zhengqing with burning eyes.

"Imitation crimes."

Well?

As soon as Bai Zhengqing's answer came out, Wu Na was stunned for a moment.

Then she shook her head and said: "Impossible, these three cases are not the same, judging from the situation of the corpse, this devil is obviously growing, from the beginning of the need to use tools to dismember people, to this time with his own strength alone can completely shatter people, obviously, this is due to the improvement of the devil's power." ”

"I understand what you mean, you think that imitation crimes are generally completely copied from the other party's murder methods, and it is impossible to leave such a big flaw. But it is precisely because of this that I feel that imitation is more likely. ”

"How?"

"First of all, the growth of the devil has certain limitations, and in just over a year, it is very unlikely that he will be promoted from the middle shock level to the high shock level. Of course, this is not completely impossible, and what really makes me think that this is a parody of the crime, the murder weapon. ”

"What's wrong with the murder weapon? In the first three cases, the murder weapons were all saws, is there anything wrong with that? ”

"Of course, there is nothing wrong with just looking at the murder weapon, but if you analyze it in combination with the characteristics of the devil that are constantly growing, there is a big problem."

Hearing this, Wu Na was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to think of something, and her eyes were full of shock.

Because through Bai Zhengqing's prompts, she has already figured it out a little.

At this time, Bai Zhengqing continued to explain: "From the medium shock level to the high shock level, the growth of the devil's power is a qualitative leap. In other words, the devil who has reached the level of high shock can be crushed by his own strength alone. So at this time, he didn't need the assistance of the murder weapon at all, and the fact that the murder weapon was not found at the scene of this crime confirmed this. But ......"

Bai Zhengqing said slowly: "But it is precisely because of this that I suspect that this is a copycat." If the saw is a tool for the murderer's fetish to disassemble the body, then even if the strength has increased a lot this time, the murderer should also use the saw. And if it's just because of a lack of strength, so the saw was needed in the first few cases, which makes a bit of sense. ”

Wu Na interjected along Bai Zhengqing's train of thought: "From the first three cases, it seems that the murderer's strength has been growing, and in the third case, his strength has actually improved a lot, so the saw is not the most convenient tool, maybe a kitchen knife is better than a saw." ”

"Yes, the first three cases were indeed committed by one person, but this one is a parody because the murderer abandoned the saw."

It was only at this time that Bai Zhengqing could be regarded as explaining his reasoning.

"What do you mean this time the murderer was clever but was mistaken by cleverness, he took into account the growth of strength, so he deliberately abandoned the murder weapon this time, but he didn't expect it to become a flaw for him."

"Well, so we're not going to catch one, we're going to catch two. One is a medium-shock serial murderer, and the other is a high-shock imitation murderer. ”

Hearing Bai Zhengqing's explanation, Wu Na suddenly felt a headache.

A devil is already very troublesome, and this time there is a more advanced devil, it's too difficult.

After thinking for a while, Wu Na asked: "Let's not talk about the murderer this time, do you have an investigation direction for the murderers in the previous three cases?" ”

She has already learned Bai Zhengqing's wisdom, so Wu Na at this time is very confident in Bai Zhengqing.

Sure enough, Bai Zhengqing smiled and said: "It's not difficult, the three deceased are all orphans and young women, although they come from different orphanages, but obviously the murderer's target is this kind of person." From the perspective of the psychology of criminals, the murderer must be a person who has had conflicts with this type of people and left a deep imprint, so our next investigation direction can be locked in various orphanages in Haicheng. ”

"You mean the murderer was an orphan who had a conflict with the little girl when he was a child?"

"That's right."

"Then why didn't the murderer kill the little girl, but a young woman in her 20s?"

"This is the second direction of investigation I want to mention, the murderer must still be silently watching the little girl by her side. It may be that he fought too hard when he was a child and suffered a loss, even if he awakened the power of the devil, he didn't dare to kill this girl, so he found a few similar women to attack. But he himself has a morbid affection for this woman, which can be seen from the fact that each corpse is stitched together. ”

"Because of hatred, so divide the other party's body, because of love, so you have to maintain the appearance of each deceased?"

After Wu Na summed up, there was a chill in her heart.

For more than ten years, she has participated in dozens of devil cases, but it is the first time she has encountered such a pervert.

At this time, Bai Zhengqing sighed and said: "The reason why devils are called devils is because they are no longer human. ”
