Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 819 Approaching the Dumbbird

teacher?

This address made everyone on the first floor look at Catherine.

Catherine beckoned to several people in a friendly manner, and introduced herself, "My name is Catherine, and I am currently working in the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau. I used to teach the "Criminal Minds" course at the Venus Academy."

In Venus, any teacher will leave a deep impression on Lu Xiang, and Catherine is no exception.

"It's a pity that you didn't transfer to our department after graduation. I've been talking about it to the director... But I heard that your work in the seventeenth district is going well. That city was called a criminal before. Heaven."

In a border city, the entire judicial system is firmly controlled by the Foster family, and every aspect is a suitable soil for crime to breed.

"Well, I submitted my application and it was rejected."

Lu Xiang said lightly that she was relieved a long time ago, and she was even more glad that she was finally transferred to the seventeenth district.

"People from the conservative wing, mainly the Iris Consortium."

Catherine doesn't shy away from this topic, "On the one hand, they hope to recruit some trustworthy people in the bureau. On the other hand, I heard that you didn't seem to get along well with the eldest lady of the consortium when you were in school."

And the person recruited by the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau instead of Lu Xiang was Hannah, the "second child of ten thousand years" of that class.

Although he is not as good as Lu Xiang in all aspects, he is superior in "pure blood". His parents are both members of the conservative faction, and his grandfather once served in the council.

"Unfortunately, the reality is like this. Sometimes a word from the Iris Foundation is more important than school grades. After all, the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau has always been backed by conservatives..."

"I know, Teacher Catherine, I didn't take this matter to heart."

Lu Xiang had to express his attitude.

Catherine smiled, "I'm just a little sorry, the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau needs a talent like you."

This is what she said in her heart, but it's a pity that her position is not enough to fight against her superiors, and she doesn't have the power to personally select newcomers.

The big family has set the recruitment criteria very rigidly, it is not something they "outsiders" can get their hands on.

Truth seems to be getting less and less valuable lately, with everyone just thinking they're not responsible.

"Sometimes I really miss teaching at Morningstar, where it's still possible to have a serious case discussion."

"Teacher, did something happen to you?"

Lu Xiang asked.

This is a dangerous speech, especially from a senior official of the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau. If it is recorded and posted on the Internet by someone with a heart, it will probably cause a lot of turmoil.

"Three homicides in two days, and a national-level rescuer died, but the higher-ups want a group of civilians to take the blame."

Catherine sat down on the sofa by herself.

Looking at Lu Xiang made her recall the past involuntarily. She was very happy to talk about cases with this little girl who always had whimsical ideas, and even Lu Xiang's thoughts on some unsolved cases could inspire her.

"Isn't it?"

Lu Xiang deliberately pretended to be confused, "Surveillance filmed that a killer had sneaked into the villa, and the security system also showed signs of being hacked."

In fact, she has always been happy to discuss the case, which is like a puzzle game for her, and she has never held grudges against Teacher Catherine because of the rejection of the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau, although the latter has suggested to her more than once during the class. Come work for the Bureau of Investigation.

But the biggest problem now is that the murderer is in the same room with them, and may even be directly involved in the ensuing discussion.

"Is this your real thought, or are you angry with the teacher?"

Catherine shook her head helplessly, "Then, let's assume that the murderer is a civil organization killer captured by surveillance. What is their purpose?"

"To be famous, or to assassinate someone with a specific identity."

"Then there is one crucial thing missing from the scene."

"Mark."

Lu Xiang blurted out, "Most of these murderers will leave their mark on the scene, either a pattern or a specific method of killing."

"I'm very happy. It seems that you haven't given me back all the things you learned at that time."

Catherine showed a satisfied smile and said, "I heard that similar murders happened in District [-] before. It takes a lot of effort to pierce a person's chest, especially since the deceased was wearing an exoskeleton armor."

"Teacher, this violates the confidentiality agreement."

Lu Xiang reminded the other party, "You should not disclose the details of the case to unrelated people like us."

"According to the bureau's regulations, this is indeed the case, but if this case is investigated together with the Chai Ke case in the [-]th district, you can become our external expert."

Lu Xiang's attitude made Catherine curious.

Her students seemed very reluctant to intervene in this case, "If the records in the bureau are correct, the murderer who killed Chai Ke has never been found."

This is far from the Lu Xiang she knew.

In school before, when dealing with cases that had nothing to do with her, Lu Xiang always had to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes she would spend a whole night thinking about the details of the case until she exhausted all clues and fell into a dead end.

Catherine regarded Lu Xiang's attitude as she was angry with the Bureau of Investigation.

After all, the rejection by the Bureau of Investigation was a heavy blow to the chief student of that year, especially after being rejected by the Bureau of Investigation, she was reduced to a border city like District [-], where no one wanted to go.

"Lu Xiang, remember what the teacher told you? Human nature is hard to change."

Catherine continued, "For those serial killers, even if they disappear for a period of time due to external pressure, they will show their feet sooner or later. That is their nature, and they cannot resist the temptation of killing... The same is true for you, You can't suppress your curiosity forever, solving crimes is what you really want to do."

"but not now."

Lu Xiang shook his head, "Now I want to ensure the safety of my subordinates."

Of course, this is a more official statement.

The actual reason is that the fourth district is full of feasting and feasting, and there is a stupid bird who got carried away on the phone on the first day of coming to the fourth district, and called her a broom star.

This has to be taught well.

What's more, as long as you stay with this dull bird, the case will take the initiative to find you.

"I see."

After Catherine's eyes shifted back and forth between Lu Xiang and Song Lan a few times, she stopped entanglement and transmitted her electronic business card to the other party, "This is my private contact information. If you change your mind, you can contact me at any time." Anyone can contact me."

After all, she left the villa and returned to the suspension car, leaving them with a chic back.

"Director, is this really good?"

After Catherine left, Zhuang Chi said in a low voice, "Your teacher is a senior official of the Bureau of Abnormal Case Investigation. If you can solve this case, maybe she can recommend you to work in the Bureau of Investigation."

Zhuang Chi also felt that with the supervisor's ability, staying in District [-] was really overkill.

The cases they usually encounter are basically straightforward gang fights and revenge killings. They basically don't need the knowledge of criminal psychology. Even a rough guy like Captain Doug is fully capable of criminal investigation.

Lu Xiang squinted at her, "Who said I'm going to work in the investigation bureau?"

"...It's spread like this in the ministries and departments."

Zhuang Chi shrank his neck, and threw the black pot out calmly.

They all remember the scene when Lu Xiang came to work on the first day. The supervisor's face was so cold that day that he could freeze the windows of the department. Because of this reason, he began to gradually integrate into the life of the Seventeenth District.

"Don't just think about speculative remarks. If the murderer can easily kill a five-star rescuer, what makes you think that you will not be killed by the murderer during the investigation?"

"...Yes, it's Roger."

"Roger?"

"Roger said he practiced a new nirvana that should keep us safe."

"Okay, let's hand over the case to the Bureau of Investigation."

Lu Xiang helped his forehead helplessly, "You stay in the villa with peace of mind, I still have something to say to Song Lan."

As she spoke, she gave Song Lan a look, and the latter immediately followed her up the stairs understandingly, leaving only a few people on the first floor looking at each other.

The two returned to the guest room arranged by Shaw Grant for Song Lan one after the other. Lu Xiang, who followed behind, locked the door as soon as he entered, making the atmosphere of the whole room suddenly anxious.

Song Lan's heart tightened.

Compared with the recent cases in the fourth district, what he is facing now is a more serious crisis.

Not long ago, he uttered wild words over the phone, but now, Lu Xiang directly booked a plane ticket and chased him to the fourth district.

The supervisor is really a man of action.

Facing Lu Xiang, who was walking towards him step by step, he decided to follow the slogan hanging high in the law enforcement department of the [-]th district - be lenient for confession and strict for resistance.

"Director, I think this is a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? Are you referring to making a hole in the chest of "Heisha", or calling me a broom star on the phone?"

"Telephone."

Song Lan replied immediately.

He never thought that there was any misunderstanding in the death of "Black Sand", he was the only one who saw through the truth.

"Heisha" apparently slipped and fell when he was invited to experience the family hot spring together, and unfortunately hurt his chest.

Places with a lot of water vapor are prone to slippery feet, and falling in hot springs is nothing new.

The telephone involves some sophisticated electronic equipment, and the possibility of misunderstanding is very high.

"Then tell me, what misunderstanding can there be on the phone?"

Lu Xiang raised his eyebrows.

"We made a long-distance call that day. For this long-distance call, the signal is easy to be poor if you are far away, and sometimes some noise will inevitably be generated. From a scientific point of view, these noises are..."

"What's with the noise?"

"Report to the supervisor, I can't write any more."

Song Lan chose to accept her fate. As the saying goes, a true brave dares to face the bleak life.

"Then sit down."

Lu Xiang pointed to the bed and asked Song Lan to sit on it.

She didn't expect that Teacher Catherine would come to her door, which indeed disrupted her plan to ask for a crime to a certain extent.

One thing the teacher said was right, human nature is indeed hard to change.

"Next is the interrogation session."

Lu Xiang cleared her throat. The person sitting opposite her now is a serial killer who committed a series of murders, and also fits the definition of this type of person in many criminal psychology.

"First question, why do you always use chest piercing?"

This has almost become Song Lan's most iconic method, and Lu Xiang is very clear that as long as he is willing, he can completely make the corpse disappear without a trace. In the fourth district, no one was able to find the body of "Black Sand".

But he chose a ostentatious way.

Let "Black Sand" pour in the family hot spring in his home, and still wear the exoskeleton armor he is proud of.

"Usually speaking, murderers use the same killing methods to convey certain information. Some people want to see themselves famous, and seeing their murders being discussed on TV and newspapers can greatly satisfy their narcissism. Some people are trying to ridicule the local law enforcement and regard these cases as a manifestation of the local law enforcement's incompetence, so what about you?"

Before that, Lu Xiang had never really profiled Song Lan, but just now, she suddenly realized that this seemed to help her enter Song Lan's inner world.

"...Maybe it will save them a little bit of pain?"

Song Lan had never conducted self-analysis, so she replied in an uncertain tone.

For him, this question is actually no different from "why use chopsticks to eat".

But he can confirm one thing, "I didn't think about conveying any information through them."

The death of a life also means that a sin or a friendship is coming to an end.

"In other words, you are not sure."

After receiving the answer, Lu Xiang's expression was a little subtle. She seemed to realize something, and then asked, "So, what did you feel when your hand passed through their chest? Some people can feel power from killing, depriving The process of life makes them feel like they're playing the role of a god, and they become obsessed with that feeling."

"no feeling."

After a moment of thought, Song Lan said.

There is neither sadness nor joy, just like wiping the corners of the mouth with a paper towel after eating, which means that one thing has come to an end.

"I see."

Lu Xiang nodded, and she didn't continue to ask further questions.

"How did the test result go?"

Lu Xiang didn't answer Song Lan's question directly, but said, "Ms. Catherine mentioned a serial killer when she was talking about a case before. He is one of the most cunning criminals the investigation bureau has ever encountered. The Bureau of Investigation paid a high price for arresting him, and Teacher Catherine also asked the same question after being arrested."

"How did he say?"

"His answer was the same as yours."

Lu Xiang said, "'It's like eating and drinking water, nothing special' These are his original words, and when he was arrested, he had already carried hundreds of lives on his body."

　Small theater its 180 six:

　　On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, a Sunday, in the evening.

　　In order to understand the sound of foxes, Lu Xiang downloaded many short videos about foxes on his tablet, and consulted the director of Tesla Technology's pet-type bionics department about this issue.

　　After an afternoon of study, she fully understood the habits of foxes.

　　For this, Song Lan's arm paid a heavy price.

　　Up to now, he has been holding Lu Xiang for more than an hour - since turning on the TV, Lu Xiang has been nestling on him like this, putting all the weight of his body on his arms.

　　Finally, Song Lan couldn't help asking, "Didn't you go to learn the sound of a fox? What's going on?"

　　"According to the information, the fox is a very clingy little animal, and it is also very good at acting like a baby. In the folklore of many areas before the war, the fox was compared to a symbol of charm."

　　Lu Xiang talked about his learning achievements in the afternoon.

　　"So, you are learning the ability of charm?"

　　Song Lan was a little puzzled. He didn't have a clear feeling except for a little numbness in his arms.

　　"There are many ways to charm, I chose a more scientific method."

　　"……science?"

　　"Do you know the easiest way to hug someone?"

　　"Appreciate further details."

　　"Standing and hugging are the most tiring, followed by sitting."

　　Lu Xiang said in a serious tone, "It's the most relaxed when both of you are lying on the bed."
