Chapter 261: Carnival

"You can see that you are really excited." Jack took out the cigarette case from his bosom, thoughtfully helped Rosie cut off the cigar head, and then lit it.

Rosie took the cigar with a trembling hand, choking on her first sip and coughing.

Everyone understands his mood at this time, and aside from this dramatic clue discovery process, it is not surprising that this unsolved case is not far from the truth being revealed.

This kind of case is not well-known in the local area, and the guy who will send toys to the family for 20 years in a row is almost certainly connected to the murderer.

Rosie didn't take much time to collect his feelings, and almost as soon as the second puff of smoke rose, he looked at Red.

"Dr. Red, help analyze, this kind of compulsive sex crime shouldn't be difficult for you."

Red nodded, and then gushed out, "There are two kinds of coercive sex offenders who will give gifts to the victim's family. ”

"One is sadistic and wants the family to relive the crimes he committed, and the other is guilty and desperate to show their apologies in some way."

"The sadist will give something that will arouse the victim's family, such as ornaments taken from the victim, newspaper clippings related to the case."

"The stuffed animals we see don't look like things that stir up pain in people's hearts." Emily said, shaking her head.

"Even considering the age of Connie's two younger siblings, she probably liked it when she received it in the first few years," Jiejie agreed.

"Then it's a guilty criminal." Rosie nodded, and pinched off the cigar he had only taken a few puffs of, making Jack feel a pain in his flesh.

"I'm fine, let's go in and talk, we need more clues from them."

When everyone returned to the house, Jiejie whispered an overview of their analysis to the Connies.

At this time, Emily thoughtfully picked up a purple monkey doll and looked at it for a long time, "I feel that this kind of gift is very similar to the kind of exchange of gifts between children." ”

Rhett was inspired by one of her words, "Although this is rare, there is a possibility that there is a murderer with a strong sense of guilt who sometimes commits crimes for reasons that are not subjectively motivated." ”

"It's like Lennie in "Between Mice and Men", a person who has problems with intellectual development, and his mind may have been stuck in childhood, but his body is huge, his limbs are developed, and he is so strong that he can inadvertently hurt others."

Seeing everyone present nodding in unison, Jack quietly took out his mobile phone and googled "Between Mice and Men".

Well, a classic literary work that has won the Nobel Prize in Literature is a must-read for basic education for European and American students, and it is no wonder that even Connie's family can understand it.

This is where Jack's common sense is lacking, and although he takes advantage of the fact that he has more time than the average person to expand his reading at a rapid pace, there are always omissions.

"Then he needs a helper, and the scene has been cleaned up, which doesn't look like the work of a low-IQ person." Rosie had already combed through this case countless times in his mind, and instantly found the problem.

"Yes, there is usually a co-offender, a family member or guardian, most often a parent, who will be tired and difficult to take care of the overdeveloped child."

After listening to Red's analysis, Rosie instructed Jack, "Jack, tell Garcia to stop comparing the murders, check the minor reports near here, and even complain." ”

"Those that happened in parks, sports fields, some of the misdemeanors, involving children." Rhett added.

"This kind of people, because of the relationship of the mind, will like to play with children, they will not necessarily hurt the children, but they are too big, may scare parents, this kind of police and complaints is an obvious feature."

Jack nodded and shook his phone, "I've already sent her a message, it will take a little time, it's not too early, why don't we have lunch together?" ”

Jack drove back a bunch of improved Chinese food, such as Kung Pao Chicken and Zuo Zongtang Chicken, from a nearby Chinese restaurant, and everyone sat around the sofa in the living room, waiting for Garcia to send a message back.

In fact, it doesn't matter what you eat, Jack's proposal is just to let Rosie have more contact with the family, since he has invested too much personal feelings in this case, he hopes that the family will also restore his inner peace.

Seeing that Rosie was chatting with the Connies about the past while eating, reminiscing about the children's grandmothers, Emily walked up to Jack who was standing in the doorway, smiled and poked him with her elbow.

"Well done, big brother."

"You're welcome, dear little sister." Jack was not polite, and directly reached out and ruffled her hair.

"Hey! Stinky boy. Emily was annoyed and wanted to fight back, but Garcia's call came in at this time.

Jack hurriedly turned on the speakerphone, walked quickly to the living room, signaling that business was important, so that Emily stopped angrily, and Jiejie on the side saw the scene of the two playing treasure, and her eyes smiled into two crescents.

"Hey, Jedi Men, here's everything you need to check." Garcia's voice can always make people's moods involuntarily happy.

"From what I've looked up, in the last twenty years, in this area of Indianapolis, there's really a lot of unfinished misdemeanor records of this kind that you've described, but there's a strange problem."

"The vast majority of these records occur between February and March each year, usually a week or two later, with similar cases in Springfield, Illinois, and then another week or two later, in Des Moines, Iowa."

"Every year?" Jie Jie asked in surprise.

"Yes, every year, very, very regular." Garcia replied.

Who could that be? Jack secretly wondered in his heart, in the past, there were those small traders in the countryside of Seris, who appeared in various places every year during the leisure time to carry out some basic material exchanges, similar words on Lao Mei's side

"Salesman?"

"No way, people with low IQs can't do this, and it's easy to get noticed." Emily shook her head and dismissed his speculation.

Rosie's eyes never took off the pile of cheap toys still on the table, "Is it possible that it is a carnival?" ”

"Carnival?" Connie's eyes lit up as if she had suddenly remembered something.

"The day before the accident, we were there for a carnival."

"Did anything happen?" Emily hurriedly asked, and at the same time, the others also came up.

Twenty years ago, only the eldest sister in the family, Connie, was old enough to remember some things, the second son George was only five years old, and the youngest daughter was three years old, both of which were too young.

Sorry for the delay.
