"Maybe I can help you find a suitable home in my neighborhood."

Jack thought about it, this was probably the only place he could help, maybe in a few years, he would offer to lend Emily money, but certainly not now.

Emily shook her head, "No hurry, I don't want to put too much pressure on myself, just wait two more years." ”

The topic could not continue, and the two of them returned their attention to the immediate situation.

"It looks like at least this guy had a happy childhood." Emily pulls out a large pile of toys from the box in the doorway, such as plastic creeps, deflated basketballs, baseball gloves, and the like.

"A wide range of hobbies and good health." As she spoke, she dug through a large pile of children's drawings under the box.

"It looks like a work from the schematic period."

The schematic period is a period of the development of individual painting activities, which can also be called the "casting period" or "golden age", which has the unique naivety and naivety and intuitive distinctiveness of children's painting, but at the same time it is full of feelings and imagination.

Jack recalled the knowledge he received passively from Rhett's encyclopedia, "The schema period is generally 5 to 8 years old, right?" Is there time on it? ”

"The back says 1985, so this guy is about 40 years old." Emily held up a finger at Jack.

"One to zero."

"No, one-to-one." Jack pulls out a photo of a baby with an apparently white baby.

"The child in your picture also painted himself with yellow hair, indicating that the suspect is Caucasian."

Emily pouted, it was her negligence, but she soon made a new discovery.

"Let's see how these paintings have changed over time." Emily spreads out several drawings side by side for easy comparison.

The crayon painting depicts the happy life of a family of four.

"Bright sun, warm father's love, mother's love, idyllic and beautiful home."

But as Emily's fingers moved between the sheets of paper, first her mother was gone, then her sister was gone, and finally the dog was gone, the sun in the sky was gone, and the idyllic house was transformed into a dilapidated wooden house in the Gobi sand.

"That was the turning point in his life." Emily sighed.

"Maybe it was divorce, or he died of illness, and he lost two relatives in just a few years, and the father and son depended on each other and went to a remote town."

Jack began to write about his childhood character, "The father may be busy with his livelihood and neglect to care for the child, and the child begins to become reticent and begins to close his heart, what is the fuse that can lead to his surname fetish becoming more and more extreme?" ”

He began to remember the astringent magazines in the box that had been taken away by the FBI, and pulled out his phone to call Rosie, who was supposed to be with Hodchner at this time.

Jack spoke of his and Emily's judgments for a moment, and then asked Rosie to dig out the magazines.

"I REMEMBER THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL VERY OLD BOUDOIR, PENTHOUSE, HUSTLER, TRANSFORMATION AND PLAYBOY IN THE BOX, AND THE EARLIEST ONES WERE A FEW YEARS OLD."

"PLAYBOY AND PENTHOUSE FROM 1982 ARE VERY WELL PRESERVED AND ARE COLLECTIBLES." Rossi's voice was admirable.

Jack scratched his head, a little puzzled, "The time is not right, we judged that the suspect's current age is about 40 years old, is this guy still a collector?" But according to his later tastes, he shouldn't be able to look down on these. ”

"Maybe it's handed down, like from his father." Hodchner said from the sidelines.

Rosie smiled knowingly, as if Hodgner had recalled his early years, "I can still remember my father's clumsy and crappy secret treasures, and he always thought he was well hidden. ”

Jack also remembered his own childhood, as many boys would have similar memories.

"Obviously different from the average person, this guy quickly developed to a higher stage, lacking parental discipline and guidance, he began to seek more, and then those easy-to-get surname abuse tapes triggered a certain desire."

As if touched by Jack's words, the two old men on the other side of the phone began to gossip.

"I remember when I interrogated Ted Bundy, he made a theory about astringent literature, and he said, 'If you don't want people to follow in my footsteps, don't burn 'The Catcher in the Rye.'"

"BURN HUSTLER, I'VE READ YOUR BOOK TOO." Hodgner continued with the second half of Rossi's sentence.

Jack could almost imagine Rosie's look on her ass, which happened to be photographed in the itchy spot.

Ted Bundy was once a legend among serial killers, and there was a special word for him, the elite yin music murderer.

The number of victims he murdered is unknown, but estimates range from 26 to more than 100, and he committed the crime only five years ago, during which time he successfully escaped from prison twice.

The most incredible thing is that a victim who escaped from his hands by luck agreed to Ted Bundy's marriage proposal in court after Ted Bundy's third death sentence, and gave birth to a daughter for him in the following time.

Even during the nearly 10 years of Ted Bundy's prison sentence before he was officially executed, countless crazy women wrote to him and declared that they were willing to die for him.

Jack remembers that Rossi had also written that while hunting down another famous serial killer, the Green River Killer, Ted Bundy, who was on death row, offered to help solve the case.

And Rossi also admits in the book that although the "Green River Killer" was arrested after Ted Bundy's execution, he was indeed inspired by him.

It's just ironic that Gary Ridgeway, the "Green River Killer" who may theoretically have killed more people than Ted Bundy, was spared the death penalty by the great federal justice system.

Jack hung up the phone, and the score was now 2-1, with Emily in the lead, and the two continued to rummage through the debris pile in the warehouse.

"Bingo, three to one, you lost, see what these are?" Emily pulled out a large pile of textbooks.

"Engineering, Mathematics, CAD User Guide."

"He went to vocational school, worked as a mechanic, or was an interior decorator," she deduced for sure. ”

"Maybe I'll have a chance." Jack didn't get dirty and got into the innermost part and dug out a large cardboard box.

"I think that's two points." He dragged a large pile of laundry out of the box, "Look at these. ”

"What the hell?" Emily's eyes widened and she looked at it in surprise.

"The sizes are different, and they are all oversized, do you think it's the victim's clothing?" Jack doesn't understand women's clothing, so he can only humbly ask for advice.

"It's hard to say, but I'm more inclined to be a transvestite." Emily pursed her lips and took a skirt and put it out into the sun to examine it closely.

"There are (jing) spots, but there are too many of them, like they have been 'yin' with their hands repeatedly."

She took off her gloves and turned on her phone's camera, wanting to take a picture, but suddenly stopped.

"Jack, my phone's camera function seems to be broken."

Jack walked over to her and took a look, and noticed that her phone's camera was catching some strange white noise that wasn't too obvious.

His heart moved, and he quickly took off his gloves, took out his mobile phone and turned on the camera function, and found that similar white noise appeared on the screen.

"I remember we had a Geiger counter in our equipment box, right?" Jack's words, Emily was shocked.

The two of them ran out of the warehouse at the same time, and Jack took out a Geiger counter from the equipment box in the trunk of the car, opened it, and shook it in the direction of the garage, and sure enough, it made an unpleasant beep.

"Jack." Emily's voice began to tremble.

"Well, it's not a big problem, only 80 microsieverts, although it exceeds the standard by hundreds of times the background radiation in the usual environment, but the little time we have stayed is not enough to cause too many problems."

Jack comforted, patted Amy on the shoulder, and gave her a free treatment.

But the next thing is troublesome, and until the specific source of radiation is found, their work will be temporarily over, and they will need to wait for the CDC and other relevant departments to arrive to deal with it.

Taking advantage of the gap before the chemical defense department arrived, Jack called Hodchner to inform him of the situation and asked them to quickly check the radiation situation over there.

Thankfully, there was nothing wrong with that pile of papers and videotapes, so the radiation source must have remained in the warehouse.

Regarding the relationship between the white noise captured by the mobile phone and the actual amount of radiation, please ask professionals not to slap their faces, it is regarded as artistic processing.

In addition, from the perspective of time setting, it is impossible for Rossi to participate in the "Green River Killer" case, and the "Ted Bundy" case is even more unlikely, anyway, it is not a world, just ignore it, just think that these murderers appeared ten or twenty years later than the real history.
