On the streets of the community, blue and red lights are constantly flashing.

The otherwise peaceful night was shattered by a noisy crowd of people who shouted incessantly.

"Boom~"

The roar of the engine attracted the attention of the patrolman in charge of maintaining order, and several cars that came rapidly in succession made him quickly raise his hand and was about to shout a loud scold.

"Dudu~"

The siren honked a few times, causing the patrol officer to quickly get out of the way.

Ethan slowed down and drove past a tall fire truck, a wet firefighter walking back with a coiled fire hose, his panting face black and white.

"Huh."

Several cars, stopped in front of the house.

The people inside also quickly got out of the car.

"Smack."

Hit the ground with one foot and make a splash.

Ethan frowned, and looked up at the still smoking house, the air filled with the smell of something that had just been burned and then mixed with water vapor.

When Hank received a call from the fire department, a group of people rushed here.

The blackened exterior walls made them look solemn.

"Hank."

Out of the room was a uniformed, burly black man with a resolute face and a thick mustache on his upper lip.

He raised his hand to say hello and walked briskly down the porch.

"Captain."

Hank shook hands with the other party, and a hoarse voice sounded: "It's an emergency, don't tell me, it's the kind of thing in my head!! ”

"Reluctantly, though."

The fire chief shook his head with a calm face and said, "But it's true that we're encountering. ”

"Now, I need you to come over and confirm."

"Fake."

After a rare curse, Hank introduced with a gloomy face: "This is Ethan Morgan, the sergeant of the intelligence group, Victoria, you have already seen it." ”

"Wallace Borden."

This tough guy looks like Lao Hei stretched out his hand to Ethan: "Chicago Fire Department, 51 Fire Brigade Captain." ”

"Hello."

The two shook each other's hands.

The police department, the fire department, and the hospital can be regarded as fraternal units among these departments, for no other reason, but because there are too many times of cooperation, and they often need to help each other.

The rest, Hank didn't bother to introduce.

"Follow me."

After letting go of his hand, Captain Wallace took the lead and walked up the steps: "Try not to set foot in a place where no one has walked, it is still very dangerous inside." ”

Walking into the house, the smell just now was instantly several times stronger.

"Ahh

Rusek's nose itched and he sneezed hard.

The ground was littered with ruined debris, the entire house was burned black, and Wallace's large flashlight shone in ruin, smoke billowing in pillars of light.

"Dah."

Ethan shrunk his neck and reached out to touch it.

fingers, touching the droplets.

Not only was the floor wet, but the ceiling was dripping from time to time.

"The flame started in the bedroom." Wallace led the group inside, and his deep voice kept saying, "The burn inside is so severe that it can't be a natural fire." ”

"In my experience, it's definitely arson."

When they arrived, the faces of the BFI group turned gloomy, and they understood what they had called them for.

In particular, a smell of burnt fire began to fill the air.

Erin took a deep breath and held Ethan's palm tightly while others were not looking, and looked at the covered humanoid object on the ground in front of her with rapid breath.

"This is it."

Wallace crossed his hands on his hips, shook his head and said, "I don't know if it's the same person." ”

"It can only be said that it is very similar to the previous Victorian case."

Swallowing his saliva, Atwater stepped forward.

Under the illumination of the light, he slowly lifted the cloth covering it, and the humanoid object under it appeared in the eyes of everyone, this kind of picture that ordinary people will never forget.

For a few months, you will never be in the mood to eat meat.

A group of people here have more contact.

It can still hold up.

"How old is she?" Olinsky carefully recognized it and clenched his fists tightly: "Is there eighteen?" ”

Yates: It's a slap in the face.

In front of them, another person was killed.

"Cover it up."

Ethan patted the back of Erin's hand and let it go.

There's no need to look at it.

No need to guess, everyone knows what happened to this girl.

He scanned from side to side with a gloomy face, his toes fiddling with some debris on the ground.

"It's not remote arson."

Hank looked at Wallace and gritted his teeth and asked, "It must be delayed arson, can you prove it?" I need some evidence from you. ”

"It's hard, it's very hard."

Wallace shook his head slowly and muffled, "It takes weeks, months, and a lot of luck, you know, arson sites tend to be the hottest. ”

"That's why it's so hard to convict arsonists in general."

"All the evidence will disappear with the flames."

"Mommy Fake."

Olivia couldn't help but be rude, and said excitedly: "This is that bastard's game." ”

"Irene."

Looking at the female police detective, she said helplessly: "Yates made you a witness to his time, and it was absolute alibi just now." ”

"We've all let him take advantage of it."

"Bang."

There was a crisp sound, startling everyone.

Ethan flicked his wrist and looked at the exposed bricks on the wall: "I can confirm it, it was Yates who did it." ”

On the pitch-black wall, a touch of green is particularly dazzling.

Erin's eyes moved, and the shattered nail polish bottle was still rolling on the ground.

"But."

Rusek was disappointed to say: "We don't have any evidence, and this time even all of us have become his witnesses." ”

"What now?"

"Find him."

Ethan looked at Olivia with a calm face, and said coldly: "The next thing is the style of the intelligence group, we will use all kinds of methods to provoke him and force this guy to do it again." ”

"During this period, he will be monitored in all directions."

"If there's something that makes you feel unpleasant, put up with me, don't talk to me about any procedures, OK?"

The latter's face stiffened, and he nodded slowly.

Through his usual contacts, Ethan felt that Olivia was the kind of person who paid more attention to procedural justice, and to put it bluntly, she was a bit of a virgin.

But the other party became more and more ferocious, and even made a game to put them in.

Now it's time to change yourself to make a trick.

"What about the rats?"

Ethan strode outside, and continued: "Quickly locate Yates's phone, and we'll find a random reason to get that guy back to the police station." ”

"Tomorrow I will investigate where he works and lives."

"I want everyone around him to know that this mom is a serial murderer."

This kind of behavior is very violated.

Of course, it is also very effective, that is, to make the other party become socially dead, forcing the other party to jump over the wall in a hurry.

Hank didn't speak.

Wallace looked at Ethan appreciatively.

And Olivia, looking at the humanoid object lying on the ground, couldn't say anything against it. (End of chapter)
