Tokyo Police

v3 Chapter 19: Purpose of the Green River Killer

Why did Lin Xiuyi dare to conclude that the van he encountered on the road was the car of the Green River Killer? First of all, estimating from the temperature of the coffee in the cup, Melanie didn't leave for a long time. Secondly, from the location of Melanie's house, although it belongs to the urban area, it is still a residential area, and most of the surrounding houses are independent wooden houses. And at that point in time, there wasn't much traffic on the roads around Melanie's house, because after all, this is a low-density residential area rather than a city's main road. So a van appears here, but it is actually very conspicuous.

Now Lin Xiuyi's greatest hope is the two coffee cups on the coffee table. The two cups of coffee were apparently Melanie serving the Green River Killer. The Green River Killer likely tricked Melanie of her trust by lying about Natalie's whereabouts. Melanie unsuspected the Green River Killer into the house and served him coffee. The Green River Killers then somehow subdued Melanie and put her in the van.

The entire criminal process was executed neatly, but the time was still too short, and there were likely to be omissions. Such as some fingerprints left on the tea cup, or the residual saliva left on the cup when drinking coffee. Although it is not known that the cup belongs to Melanie, the police can extract the DNA of Melanie and Natalie on the comb or toothbrush in the bathroom for comparison, if they can detect a third person other than the two. DNA, it must be the Green River Killer.

The test results on Barney's side will not be available until tomorrow at least, and just after Sean notified the North District Police Department and the FBI about the situation of the white van, Sean successively received some from the Seattle police. Regarding the situation of the white vans that appeared on Mayflower Street during this period of time. A total of three suspicious white vans were found by the Northern District Police Department from road surveillance. Videos of the three cars were uploaded to Sean's phone one after another.

"Lin, come and see this!" After receiving the video, Sean found Lin Xiuyi with his fingers, and the two recognized the van that almost collided with them just now based on their impressions.

"Sean, this is the car! Inform the police station in the northern jurisdiction and make sure to find the whereabouts of this car." Lin Xiuyi's depressed mood finally eased a little. Now that there is a video of the car, it should not be difficult to obtain the registration information of the car. , finally there is one more clue.

As soon as Sean and Lin Xiu confirmed the car video, they immediately contacted the Northern District Police Station. At the same time, the video was sent to the FBI crime laboratory. Technician Matthew was there to restore. Matthew can process images much faster than he can detect DNA. In about ten minutes, Lin Xiuyi got all the registration information of the van.

To Lin Xiuyi's surprise, the truck was actually registered in Idaho. Lin Xiuyi and Sean really did not expect such a result.

Idaho is located east of the HSD state where Seattle is located and borders the HSD state. If the Green River Killer is driving an Idaho-owned van, does that mean the Green River Killer is from Idaho, or once settled in Idaho?

Could this be the reason why the Green River Killer hasn't committed a crime for 35 years? Just because he settled in Idaho?

"Contact the Idaho FBI branch to see if there has been a murder case similar to the Green River Killer's method in the past 35 years, and if so, let them pass the information as soon as possible!"

What Lin Xiuyi said was exactly what Sean thought. He had never figured out why the Green River Killer would commit the crime again after so many years of silence. Now a registration in Idaho points them to a new clue. Was it because the Green River Killer settled in a neighboring state that he had been committing crimes in Idaho for the past thirty-five years?

Melanie's disappearance suddenly brought Lin Xiuyi a lot of new clues. At the same time, it also brought more pressure to Lin Xiuyi. Now time is Lin Xiuyi's biggest obstacle, and the Green River Killer took Melanie by kidnapping instead of killing her on the spot. Lin Xiuyi didn't know what kind of intentions he had, but Lin Xiuyi knew that at least the Green River Killer thought Melanie was still useful. What is the value of Melanie?

Thinking about that poster, the Green River Killer must have seen that poster before finding Melanie. This means that the Green River Killer is actually concerned about Melanie's missing daughter Natalie. So can it be considered like this, the real intention of the Green River Killer to kidnap Melanie is actually for Natalie.

Thinking of this~lightnovelpub.net~ a bold idea suddenly appeared in Lin Xiuyi's mind. Could it be that the Green River Killer is looking for Natalie. For Natalie's sake, the Green River Killer even gave up the mature criminal methods in the past and changed to kidnapping during the day. Why Natalie is so worthy of the Green River Killer's attention is difficult to understand because Natalie knows some information and details of the Green River Killer.

Lin Xiuyi stood on the grass outside Melanie's house, and the associations in his mind became more and more abundant. For a long time, Lin Xiuyi thought that Natalie had fallen into the hands of the Green River Killer. It now appears that Natalie may have escaped from the Green River Killer. She is very likely one of the few people who has seen the Green River Killer...

"Sean, let's go to the North Jurisdiction Police Station. I think we have something to do!" After Lin Xiu said hello, Xiao En followed Lin Xiuyi back to the car without saying a word. After Lin Xiuyi started the car, he began to tell Sean some of the ideas that he had just thought of, bit by bit.

"So Lin, now we are competing with the Green River Killer, who can find the missing Natalie earlier. As long as we find Natalie first, we can rely on the clues provided by Natalie to find Green River. killer..."

Sean repeated Lin Xiuyi's meaning in his own words, and Lin Xiu nodded to confirm Sean's understanding. This case originally started with the investigation of Natalie's disappearance. Unexpectedly, it has turned around and returned to the original starting point.

"Lin, where do you think this Natalie is now? Since he has seen the Green River Killer, why didn't he seek asylum from the police?" Sean asked curiously.

"I don't know either, but I think Natalie may have been stumped by something, so we and the Green River Killer have never been able to find him!" Lin Xiuyi said seriously.
