Intuition of nothingness
After viewing Jenny's crime scene, Feng Wu and Chen Tong returned to the police station. Feng Wu took out a notebook and began writing immediately.
Chen Tong was curious, but still waited on the side.
For a while, there was only the sound of Sha's rapid brushstrokes. Half an hour later, Feng Wu looked up and said, "The general outline of the case can now be determined."
"May I have a look?" Chen Tong asked immediately.
Feng nodded slightly and moved his laptop in front of Chen Tong, who immediately looked at it.
"First, the murderer is a novice; second, the murderer is between 20 to 25 years old; third, the murderer is a student at Victor's school; fourth, the target of the murderer is foreigners; fifth, the murderer will continue to commit crimes..." Chen read out loud one sentence after another, and Feng had written more than thirty sentences, many of which he didn't quite understand why.
Then he looked up at Feng Wu and raised a question: "Mr. Feng Wu, how did you determine that the murderer was a student from Victor's university?"
"Because the other party is a novice, he needs a trial target, and Victor happens to enter his line of sight. Although it's not very clear what the murderer's purpose is, he seems rational, and I even feel that he was coerced into killing someone. Anyway, this is just my personal intuition after handling many cases." Feng Wu said.
Chen nodded and said, "Why did the murderer target foreigners? Although he has been killing foreigners in a row, but Watanabe's characteristics are infinitely close to those of Chinese people. How could the other party know whether he is a foreigner or a Chinese?"
"Watanabe Koji's death was actually an accident. I've seen the fatal wound, it was the killer's first strike. Watanabe Koji had a bad heart condition, that's why he died from one hit. And Miss Jenny was attacked on her temple, which was the killer's second strike. At this point, the killer's psychological quality has improved significantly and became more cunning. He didn't even need to use a straight razor, directly using an electric baton to kill both of them. That anti-wolf electric bat must have been around 20,000 volts, otherwise it wouldn't be fatal." Feng Wu said.
Chen furrowed his brow and said, "Could it be that the murderer is a racist? I recall that Victor's side had a young lady who survived, she was only electrocuted at the time."
"No, the other party shouldn't be a racist, but rather more like an assassin, and even the perpetrator is two different people." Feng Wu suddenly lowered his head and said thoughtfully, mainly because there was too little information, otherwise he could have made a more accurate inference about the killer's purpose.
Chen Tong also frowned at his notes. This case was indeed tricky, and the most frightening thing was that the opponent's purpose for murder had no clues!
They have investigated the people related to Victor, but unfortunately, they all have alibis. As for Jenny, there is no lead at all. Although she has several enemies who might take action, she sneaked out that day and even those people wouldn't know her whereabouts.
"We'll first investigate which day Vick died and see who among the students were absent from school that day, then we can make plans." said Feng Wu.
Chen Tongyi was taken aback and immediately said: "This is not scientific, after all, there are many students who have left school, asking one by one is too inefficient."
"Go to the student union and ask them to help with the statistics. At the same time, go find the principal and have him send over all the information on this year's students." Feng Wu said directly.
Chen Tongyi was stunned, and then he suddenly realized that there was actually such a way, no need to ask one by one himself.
After Chen Tong left, Feng Wu sat on the office chair with his hands crossed, gradually falling into deep thought.
The killer's rough outline he can already imagine, should be a sturdy young man, slightly younger in age, estimated to be around 23 years old, his situation is very special, estimated to have mental illness such as schizophrenia, for example, in his fantasy, there is someone threatening him, asking him to kill or not kill will lead to bad things, so he chooses targets in school, seemingly with foreign characteristics as priority, he chose Victor.
Someone was forcing, this is a bit of a problem, forcing ordinary people to kill, which is unlikely in itself. If it's a mental illness, it can be explained. But Victor himself has a dirty butt and has committed multiple crimes of raping young girls, so he perfectly fits the requirements of the murderer.
The perpetrator must have observed Victor, perhaps this is a breakthrough, and we need to ask if anyone paid special attention to Victor those days.
He hesitated before taking action, which means he didn't want to kill anyone, or it wasn't his intention to kill, but in the end, he took action.
Feng took out a sheet of A4 white paper and suddenly started drawing. His sketching skills were extremely strong, and gradually, the scene of the crime that night reappeared, although the face of the perpetrator was not drawn, but the general outline had come out.
An hour later, Chen Tong returned. The student union agreed to help, but it would take two days. As for the student's information, it could be directly queried through the computer, and he had already obtained the permission.
"Hey, you still have the mood to draw." Chen Tong smiled as he saw the A4 paper on the desk, but after picking it up and taking a look, his expression gradually turned serious. After finishing reading, he looked at Feng Wu with a surprised face.
"Just drawing out the process of committing a crime from my mind, I'd say about 90% of murderers do it this way. An ordinary resident who has never killed before can only go so far, after all, there are too many restrictions."
"This ability of yours is too abnormal, I feel like this is the truth!" Chen Tong said as he looked at the drawing paper.
At this time, the phone rang, and the plainclothes policeman answered it. He immediately looked up and said: "Another foreigner's body has been found!"
"Go and take a look!" Feng Wu said immediately.
Three people rushed to the scene, where a cordon had already been set up. Under the escort of plainclothes police officers, they entered smoothly.
The deceased's name is Tekeli, a Mexican national, 46 years old. He came to China for vacation and in search of inspiration and romance.
That's right, Tekeli is a designer and also a romantic big uncle.
However, Taekwondo is now lying in a secluded alley, with a ferocious face and at least 17 wounds on his abdomen.
The first glance at the scene was enough to imagine the terrifying picture at that time. The murderer held a dagger and stabbed Tekeli's abdomen wildly, smashing all his internal organs, even breaking bones with the knife.
This method of death must be very painful, no wonder Taiklee's face is so ferocious.
"The victim's time of death was approximately 4 am, and there were signs that their belongings had been rummaged through. Preliminary judgment is that they encountered a robbery (and harmony) and were killed by the thugs after resisting." The plainclothes policeman said.
Chen Tongdao said: "This should just be a coincidence, the modus operandi of the crime is too different."
The two cases in front were both killed by electric batons, and then they were killed. The first time I saw blood, but it was also a one-shot kill, but here it's crazy, just look at the messy abdomen and you can imagine how terrifying the scene was at that time.
"Why is the target still a foreigner?" The plainclothes policeman suddenly felt another doubt.
Chen Tong smiled and said: "Foreigners are synonymous with being rich in the eyes of locals, maybe that's the reason."
"Mr. Feng, what do you think?" The plainclothes policeman frowned and looked at Feng Wu.
Only saw the envelope, staring at the corpse without blinking, heard the plainclothes police's words, looked at the plainclothes police and said: "Can't confirm for now, but maybe there was a mistake in the previous inference, let me take another look."
He walked forward, took a look at the wound, and then searched around for something. Suddenly, he seemed to notice something, walked in front of the corpse, and carefully looked at the other person's hand.
"Chen Tong, come over here for a moment." Feng Wu said without opening his mouth.
Chen Tong stepped forward, although he was resistant to the corpse, as a police officer, surrounded by colleagues, he didn't want to show that kind of cowardly emotion, after all, it would be too embarrassing for a police officer to be afraid of seeing a corpse.
"Take a sniff, doesn't his hand have a strange smell?" said Feng Wu.
Chen Tong's eyebrows furrowed instantly. Even if he didn't want to reveal his resistant emotions, how could he be perverted enough to go and smell the corpse?
"What's wrong?" Feng Wujian and Chen Tong furrowed their brows in puzzlement.
The plainclothes policeman chuckled and said, "I don't think this guy can do it, I'll do it myself!"
He crouched down, put on his gloves, picked up the corpse's hand and sniffed it carefully. He frowned and said, "Although it's very light, there is indeed a stench. Feng Wu, your nose isn't like a dog's, is it? How did you discover it just now?"
"Could it be corpse smell?" Chen Tong said calmly.
Feng Wu glanced at Chen Tong and said, "This is the smell of the murderer. The murderer should be a sanitation worker or a vagrant, because they have contact with garbage, there is a smell on their body. The murderer should be acting on impulse, so they didn't handle their body before taking action."
"Come on, can you really infer just from the smell?" Chen Tong asked skeptically.
To be honest, if investigating cases were that easy, what would be the point of having police?
"Never mind, go to the sanitation department first and take a look. Chen Tong, you bring people to check the surveillance video nearby and pay attention to the vagrants around." The plainclothes policeman also felt that the smell was similar to that kind of smell, because his mother used to be a sanitation worker, although she washed cleanly every time she came back, but still had a bit of smell, very familiar.
Back from the sanitation department, it can basically be ruled out that the sanitation worker was the perpetrator, so it's probably a nearby vagrant.
Of course, the plainclothes police did not rule out other possibilities, while Fang Mou was quietly looking at the students' information.
"It seems things have become interesting." Half an hour later, Feng Wu said in a low voice with the corners of his mouth gradually rising.
He can be sure that one of the murderers is hiding among these ordinary students, but he also has no way to determine the murderer immediately.
Moreover, the other party is not a foolish person. Although the modus operandi of the crime is slightly childish, they will not leave behind crucial evidence.
But that's what makes things interesting.
Mentally ill person?
Is there still something hidden secret?
