Mystery Hunter

Chapter 195: a box

"Grandpa Shao, what basic conditions do you have to meet to be a very powerful criminal policeman?" Shui Xinlan asked, looking at Mr. Shao who was sitting on the rattan chair.

two hours ago.

The members of the task force gathered at Jiang He's house at the moment. In the words of Mr. Shao, they had just experienced a depressing case and needed to have a party to relax. However, this party was not very successful. The deserted scene reminded Mr. Shao of the academic seminar he participated in before.

Guan Deng occupied the computer at Jiang He's house. He wore headphones and played a word game that Lao Shao had never seen before. When Shao Lao asked, Guan Deng was embarrassed to tell Shao Lao by typing that he was playing League of Legends. This is a script he wrote himself, which can express all actions in words...

Yuan Jun has been running non-stop on the treadmill since the beginning, and he has no idea how long it has been. In Yuan Jun's words, when he was in the army, he had to carry five kilometers every day. I recently came to the task force, and I don't have time to run every day. It's hard to rest, you must have a good time running.

Xu Yiman stayed in the kitchen. After the fifth failure of braised eggplant, she announced to everyone that she must make a delicious braised eggplant today, otherwise no one can sleep tonight. Shao Lao was getting old, so he had a hard time to avoid eating those braised eggplants that didn't look like food. The rest of the people were not so lucky.

The most interesting thing is Jiang He. Since joining the task force, Jiang He rarely needs to use pigs to simulate victims. Jiang He got his wish, but the owner of the pig farm quit. He had discussed with Jiang He orally before, and he would send a pig directly to Jiang He every month, and now there were four or five large sows in stock. So all night, I could hear the call from the owner of the pig farm...

After the hospital's examination, Wang Chao was also discharged not long ago. However, Wang Chao did not attend the party this time, and Lao Shao did not inform him. Wang Chao's ability is not outstanding, and he is old. He has his own family and his own children. Coupled with the request of Wang Chao's wife to kneel on the ground, in any case, there is no reason for the task force to recall Wang Chao again.

Maybe this profession needs a weirdo like myself.

When Shao Lao thought so, Shui Xinlan asked.

As an author of mystery novels, it is a rare opportunity to have the opportunity to interview an old detective who is working on the front line. At this moment, Shui Xinlan is sitting beside Shao Lao, holding a small notebook and a pen, ready to record what Shao Lao said at any time.

Shao Lao put the tea jar aside and said slowly: "If you want to be a criminal police officer, you just need to study the courses taught by the police academy seriously. But if you want to become the kind of powerful criminal police officer you say, Probably as long as two of the three conditions are met, or if you are particularly good at a certain point, you can become an excellent detective.”

Shui Xinlan nodded seriously, and her hand holding the pen couldn't help but tighten, and asked, "Then what are the three conditions?"

"Excellent logical thinking ability. No matter what the situation is, this person can think calmly, and use the clues obtained through meticulous reasoning ability to infer what happened at the murder scene. In this way, the murderer's method of killing is simulated, and the murderer's Height, what kind of clothes you wear, even physical characteristics, etc. People who are proficient in this method, we call him a criminal profiler. Such people are rare in this world, but they exist. Twenty years ago, I There is such a player, but that's another story."

Old Shao sighed slightly.

"Excellent reasoning ability." Shui Xinlan hurriedly wrote this down in the notebook: "What else?"

Mr. Shao thoughtfully waited for Shui Xinlan to write the first point before he said again: "The second point is keen observation ability. The principle of Lockard's material exchange shows that when a criminal commits a crime, he is bound to be at the crime scene. Contact, collision, friction and other actions with various material entities, resulting in material exchange."

"And when the objects at the crime scene are messy and numerous, we are often confused by the numerous objects. This requires the criminal police to have a keen observation ability and be able to distinguish what objects the murderer has touched. And if this case The scene has been cleaned up by the murderer, and there is almost no material substance, so the criminal police need to observe meticulously and be able to see details that others can't see."

"And this..."

Before Shao Lao finished speaking, Shui Xinlan looked at Jiang He who was in a daze beside the bed for no reason. He must be conducting his own inexplicable experiment again.

"Jiang He is such a person." Shui Xinlan looked away from Jiang He and said while writing, "That uncle can see what kind of work they do and where they come from just by looking at them. , Sometimes even the people closest to that person don't know things, he can easily see it. Standing in front of him, it seems that he has seen all of himself, and there is no privacy at all. "

While Shui Xinlan was talking, she couldn't help but look at Jiang He.

You can't hide the look of someone you like, and you can't hide the look of someone you hate, as long as you pay attention. When Shui Xinlan looked at Jiang He, her eyes were gentle, and a soft light seemed to flash from her pupils, wrapping around Jiang He. In those clear water-like eyes, there seemed to be ripples.

Shao Lao looked at the others, who were all busy, and then he said softly, "Do you like Jiang He?"

Shui Xinlan didn't expect Mr. Shao to ask such abruptly, two blushes hung on her cheeks, she held the pen tightly in her hand, looked left and right, and found that no one was paying attention to her, she said : "Why, I already have a boyfriend, my classmate."

Shao Lao shrugged, held the teacup in his hand again, and said, "There are no major events in the world other than life and death. If you like someone, you should tell him that it doesn't matter if you are rejected, at least you won't regret it."

"Then have you ever regretted anything? I heard from Sister Xu Yiman, Grandpa, you have never been married, but you are still single. Didn't Grandpa have a girl he once liked?" Shui Xinlan put the notebook on the On the side, he instead questioned Mr. Shao.

Shao Lao's eyes flashed the appearance of the woman thirty years ago.

"That's a story from a long time ago." Shao Lao looked at Jiang He.

Shui Xinlan's gaze followed Old Shao and followed Jiang He.

"Really don't like it?" Shao Lao asked with a smile.

Shui Xinlan lowered his head and said, "That person is so weird, I don't think he needs a girlfriend. Because no one can be as weird as him, and no one can be as funny as him... No, how to say it here Here, you just said the second one, what else is there?"

Shao Lao took a sip of tea and made a happy voice: "The third rule is to see the wisdom of human nature. People have seven emotions and six desires, no matter what the motives of the criminals are, you can always find out from these emotions in the end of the analysis. The first thing the criminal police need to understand is that human nature is evil. Under certain circumstances, people are likely to make some crazy actions.”

"This is the instinct of all animals, and the genes of animals are inherently selfish. When everyone has evil thoughts, some people release evil thoughts, and some people can control themselves. And our life is a process of gradually self-cultivation , to eradicate the malice from his body bit by bit."

"As long as you can see through this, you will understand why the murderer does this, and you will know that anyone can be the murderer."

Shui Xinlan could understand the first two, but only the third one, Shui Xinlan was a little ignorant and could not understand Shao Lao's whole mind.

Mr. Shao continued: "So we formulate detailed laws, so we control our desires. Just for an ordinary person, many times, we can't really sit in the clear distinction between good and evil. Because this is a very vague Scope, and people are such tangled creatures."

Shui Xinlan looked at Lao Shao's eyes seriously, but in those black pupils, Shui Xinlan couldn't see anything.

She carefully recorded what Mr. Shao said in the notebook.

"Ding dong."

The doorbell rang suddenly.

"Huh?" Shui Xinlan muttered strangely.

People like Jiang He basically didn't have any friends. After Shui Xinlan moved in for so long, he had never seen anyone take the initiative to find Jiang He, so the doorbell on the second floor was always a decoration, and no one ever rang it.

But no one wanted to open the door, so Shui Xinlan had no choice but to open the door.

Shui Xinlan opened the door, but there was no one outside. She looked down the stairs on the second floor and found that a little boy had disappeared out of the alley, it seemed that it was a prank by a child. But when Shui Xinlan wanted to close the door, she found a square box on the ground.

Shui Xinlan scratched his head and picked up the box. There was nothing on the box, no sign, and he didn't know what was inside. Shui Xinlan felt it, and the weight was quite heavy, and it seemed that the contents inside were not small. She was about to shake it to hear what was inside.

But when Shui Xinlan was about to start, two hands circled from behind her and gently supported the box.

Shui Xinlan looked back and found that it was Jiang He. She had never been this close to He Jiang He before, such an action was like a gesture of intimacy between a couple. She could feel Jiang He's temperature, and the stench of sweat on his body after he hadn't showered for days.

"You, what are you doing..." Shui Xinlan was very shy.

"Don't move." Jiang He's eyes were fixed on the box.
