Las Vegas, District Bureau.

  Dean and Cheston met the police officers who received them.

The other party was a middle-aged Caucasian woman named Louise, a very common name in the United States, with exquisite makeup. If it weren't for the crow's feet at the corners of the eyes that exposed the other party's age, it would almost make people think that she was only in her early thirties. still exist.

  Meet Dean, a handsome man.

  Louis looked enthusiastic.

She enthusiastically held the hand that Dean extended, and her fingers dishonestly drew small circles on Dean's palm, and said in a teasing tone: "Hello, I'm Louise, the inspector of Las Vegas, by the way, Are you sure you're not a movie star, or a male model or something?"

   "Maybe one day I run out of money, I can consider giving it a try, but at least I am now an FBI agent who is here to help investigate the case. You can call me Dean."

   Dean is a single-minded man.

  He was only interested in women under 35, so he withdrew his palm in bewilderment.

   Cheston on the side gave Louise a step appropriately: "Inspector Louise, I am Cheston, Agent Dean's assistant, and the person who was in contact with you on the phone."

  Louis withdrew her palm and rubbed her fingers in front of the two of them, as if reminiscing the feel of Dean's firm palm, looking frivolous and lustful.

can only say.

  Any woman who can get along well in the police station and still be in the top position is very distinctive.

  Seeing this, Cheston had doubts in his eyes.

  He didn't understand, as the inspector of the police department, why Louise behaved so badly the first time she met them.

  Dean's eyes flashed.

   This woman is testing them.

  This kind of unexpected encounter can truly reflect a person's way of handling things and his style of acting.

  If he guessed correctly, Louise was dissatisfied with the FBI's involvement in the serial female body throwing case, but she couldn't stop the above from shirking responsibility, so she made this gesture when they first met.

  So, with a smile on his face, Dean took the initiative to say:

   "You like to smoke MARLBORO, the latest one should be three minutes before we met.

  You hardly dress up at ordinary times, and the makeup on your body is not to deal with us, but you attended the wedding party of your relatives last night, and you had a night of carnival, and you didn't have time to remove your makeup.

By the way, you should have served in the army. Your right ankle hurts all the year round. You have a weak but very homely boyfriend. You like to snuggle with your little boyfriend in your arms. If conditions permit, come and have one MARLBORO will give you great heart satisfaction! "

  The more Louise listened, the duller the expression on her face became.

   All are right!

  But immediately, the sluggish expression on her face turned into anger: "Asshole, you investigate me!"

Dean shrugged: "If you want to hear, I can also tell you how often you have **** with your little boyfriend, what positions you like to use, and some weird behaviors you like to do during sex, but these are not from my research , but within a few minutes of seeing you, you told me yourself!"

   said.

  Dean stretched out his hand to the side.

  Cheston quickly took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out one and put it between Dean's fingers.

   Pata.

   Cigarette lit.

  Dean took a puff of smoke lightly, with a light tone:

  "You are a domineering person, so you don't want anyone to intervene in your case, but you haven't found any clues, can't find your direction, and feel impatient and dissatisfied with our arrival.

   If I'm not mistaken, you may have prepared some other projects to embarrass us and vent your dissatisfaction.

But your attitude may cause the next possible female victim to be delayed in rescue and lose her own young life, so Inspector Louise, please don't let other people's lives be used for your emotions Pay the bill! "

  The more Dean said, the more shocked Louise's face became!

  She felt that under Dean's eyes, she seemed to have no secrets.

   This man saw the ugliness in the deepest part of her heart!

  At this moment, Louise felt shock, embarrassment, and anger in her heart!

  She wanted to be tough.

But when Louise met Dean's seemingly soft, but actually tough eyes, her eyes subconsciously looked towards the ground, her head drooped uncontrollably, like a little girl who made a mistake, and her mouth didn't know what to say. Cuo said: "Sorry, I. You."

   "No need to explain!"

  Dean waved his hand and ordered: "Take us directly to understand this case!"

  There are many ways to communicate with people.

  Facing a stubborn, controlling, domineering object like Louise, it is the most efficient way to communicate by directly breaking the opponent's psychological defenses and creating a strong and mysterious image of yourself.

   Of course, it is also easy to arouse the hostility of the other party afterwards.

   But Dean doesn't care.

  Strength is his confidence in speaking.

   After bringing Dean and Dean to the morgue of the forensics department, Louise suddenly woke up, recovered from the disturbed mind, and got rid of the strange state of subconsciously obeying Dean's command.

  She looked at Dean in fear, but happened to meet Dean's eyes with a slight smile.

  Louis thumped in her heart.

  This handsome looking young detective, so scary!

She licked her lips, suppressed the cranky thoughts in her heart, led the two of them to a row of corpses, and introduced somewhat unnaturally: "These are the corpses of the five victims we found beside the road. It was Walt Forensic Doctor, who is also the highest-level old forensic doctor in Las Vegas."

   "Pull off the white cloth."

  Cheston hurried forward to help the forensic doctor Walter who was in charge of the autopsy, and worked together to remove the white cloth covering the corpse.

The five corpses were all naked. The surface of the body that should have been plump, the abdomen was sunken, revealing the raised ribs that were struggling to support. The ugly and dense black sutures looked like centipedes entrenched on them, and the pale skin formed a An eerie still painting.

   These are traces produced after forensic autopsy.

And in the lower part of the five victims, there are five dark deep holes, the size of ordinary people's wrists, regular and deep, as if they were directly pierced by some kind of sharp weapon, and the entire area that was originally the reproductive system was removed. .

   "It's perverted enough."

  Dean narrowed his eyes slightly, squatted down, and carefully looked at the wound on the corpse closest to him.

  Because the death time is too long.

  The wound is black and red. After getting close, you can see some carbonization marks on the meat wall.

  This kind of situation usually occurs on severe burns.

  The forensic doctor Walt on the side introduced at the right time:

   "Mr. Detective, the victim in front of you is named Margo, a 21-year-old saleswoman in a department store who disappeared after get off work two weeks ago.

  In the early morning of the fourth day Margot disappeared, a passing driver found her neatly arranged body on the side of the road. "

   "What about the specific cause of death?"

   "Suffocate to death!"

  The forensic doctor Walt said affirmatively: "The five victims all have common characteristics. I found chloroform in their bodies."

"What's this?"

  Cheston on the side asked in doubt.

  Dean also raised his ears.

  Although he has the habit of reading books and collecting knowledge, he is not omniscient.

Forensic doctor Walter stopped talking and explained: "This is an anesthetic that has been eliminated. This thing has an anesthetic effect, but it is easy to cause damage to the human body, damage the liver and so on, so as early as the 1950s , not much to see."

   "Well, it seems that the murderer may be an older person."

  Cheston Expressed his views.

Forensic doctor Walt did not comment on this, and continued to explain: "The content of chloroform in the bodies of the five victims was high enough to make them lose consciousness directly, and even control their bodies. They were unable to breathe instinctively, and they had symptoms of breathing amnesia, which led to their suffocation and death."

   "So they didn't die painfully?"

  Forensic Walter nodded:

   "If you have undergone anesthesia surgery, you will know that if a person is under anesthesia, the person's consciousness seems to enter the cloud, light and floating, and finally lose consciousness completely.

  The facial features of the other five victims also proved that they did not feel pain before they died. Otherwise, the gradually cooling body would not allow them to maintain the serenity on their faces after feeling their bodies being hollowed out.

  This is also one of the things that puzzles me the most. "

  The forensic doctor sighed:

   "Based on the characteristics of the corpse, the murderer anesthetized the victims when their emotions were relatively stable, and then used a high-voltage electric baton to torture them.

   This is why there are burn marks under the wound.

After that, the murderer used some kind of sharp tool to neatly cut off there, stretched out his hand, and tore off the female victim's intestines, kidneys, liver and other internal organs, arranged them in the shape of flowers, and placed them in the peaceful state of death. next to the person.

  It was a very shocking scene. "

  After listening to Walt's forensic doctor's narration, Chessingen couldn't help shrinking his neck.

  Removing internal organs with bare hands!

  Ordinary people really can’t do this kind of thing!

  Placing flowers in front of the deceased is generally used to express mourning and remembrance, and it is a beautiful behavior.

Let's imagine.

  The strange contrast between the fresh offal of the deceased and the peaceful female victim.

   This murderer is really perverted!

  Dean's reaction was not as big as Cheston's.

  No matter how perverted things are, he has seen them all.

  His focus was on the inference of the murderer's actions according to the forensic doctor Walt.

  When most people know the death of the female victim, they will subconsciously feel that the murderer must be a cruel pervert.

  The murderer is abnormal, Dean does not deny it.

   But he saw something more: a sense of ritual!

  General serial killers, fixed characteristics, either to show their uniqueness, or to gain a sense of attention, or a certain habit.

  This case should belong to the last kind - habit.

   Habitual characteristics, there are also many points.

   Some are to satisfy their own collections, such as collecting a certain body part of each victim, or an object of the other party.

   There are still some, that is, living habits.

  Dean speculates that in reality, the murderer might be someone who behaves well, has received strict etiquette education, and has some artistic talents.

  This kind of people are often affected by habits, and even simple tableware arrangement will make it pleasing to the eye.

  Of course, it is not ruled out that the murderer did this on purpose to attract attention.

  After all, every time the other party kills the deceased, he deliberately chooses the road where the vehicles pass, then kills the deceased, and walks away, for fear that others will not find the dead body.

  Dean is still not sure about the behavioral characteristics of the murderer.

  This needs more information support.

  So he got up and asked Louise: "Inspector Louise, how is the traffic flow on the road where the body was found?"

   "That road is the main road that enters the city of Las Vegas. Even in the middle of the night, there will be no less traffic!" Louise thought for a while and added:

"Actually, the five victims were all discovered by drivers who were passing by about five or six hours after their death, and they called the police. In addition, the location where each victim was found was placed on a beach umbrella by the murderer. .

   This is also the main reason why those drivers will notice the dead body on the side of the road. At first they thought it was some beautiful woman sunbathing. "

  Hearing this, Dean fell into deep thought.

  If this is the case, it is basically certain that the murderer wanted to attract attention and deliberately let people find the body!

   thought about it.

  He turned his head to look at the forensic doctor Walt who did not speak after the introduction: "Mr. forensic doctor, is the place where the body was found the first crime scene?"

  Forensic Walter nodded affirmatively:

   "The corpses are evenly spotted, and there are no obvious signs of movement.

  In addition, although the wind and sand covered up and swept away many traces and clues at the scene, the characteristics of the blood stains under the corpse can prove from the side that the victim was at the place where he was found within half an hour of his death.

  So at most the murderer was near the victim, removed the internal organs of the deceased, and then placed the body on the side of the road, but the distance would not be too far.

  The key is the **** wind and sand, so we have no way to verify these.

  We also didn't find any traces of dragging near where the body was found. "

Cheston felt a little strange: "Well, didn't Detective Louise say that there was a lot of traffic on the road where the body was found? It would take a long time for the murderer to remove the internal organs of the female victim. Isn't he afraid Expose yourself?"

   "This is easy to solve."

  Dean scanned the five corpses. He was pale but could still see the beautiful faces of the past. He asked the forensic doctor Walt, "After the corpses were found, did you notice how their bodies were sticking to the sand?"

  Cheston and Inspector Louise on the side were puzzled when they heard this question.

  They don't know why Dean asked that.

  Forensic doctor Walt's eyes revealed a sudden surprise: "I have been wondering where the murderer dealt with the victims before, and your words reminded me!"

"What?"

   Cheston and Inspector Louise, who looked confused, said in unison.

Medical examiner Walter explained: "After the bodies of the five victims were discovered, although the surfaces of the bodies were all dirty by wind and sand, no sand was found inside. In this case, if the murderer was outside without shelter, it would be difficult to Corpse, it's very difficult to do!"

   "But you said before that the place where the body was found was the scene of the crime. How did the murderer do it?"

  Cheston was stunned.

  Inspector Louise, because she has been following up on this case before, so she reacted a step faster, also showing a dazed expression, and said in surprise: "

I see!

car!

   is the kind of car with a big trunk!

  The truck is too conspicuous!

So the murderer should have dealt with the female victim in the van, and then placed the body on the side of the road while there was no one around. This can explain why the body of the female victim was found without obvious sand in her body. large!

   In this way, the murderer is not worried that he will be exposed! "

Dean stood aside and added lightly: "The other five victims are all local residents of Las Vegas, and they are all young blonde women at the same time, so the murderer should also live in Las Vegas. It is convenient to select the target, so checking the surveillance at the intersection should help us!"

  Louise and Walter forensic looked at each other excitedly.

   Now, there is a direction to solve the case!

  Case solving is just that.

  Cases that seem to have no clue, clues are often hidden in some inconspicuous details.

   There is also a chapter of more than 5,000 words. I scheduled it at 3:30. You can read it tomorrow, good night.
