Global Manhunt: If I let you flee, how can you solve the case?

Chapter 110: Tram Problem, Difficult Choice!

The fourth victim!

In the entire hall of the chess academy, everyone seemed motionless when they saw the words on the note, as if they had been cast a restraining spell.

The tourists are still just immersed in the horror of using human life as a chess game.

The members of the expert team knew the meaning of this note better, and their hearts felt as if they had been whipped, throbbing severely.

This note is exactly the same as the notes on the beauties in the circus lounge.

In the circus, three victims appeared, corresponding to the three women who died first in the Platinum Case thirty years ago.

And in front of him, this last little girl corresponded to the youngest victim, the fourth deceased.

Now, she represents the chess piece in Luo Ji's hand, the "pawn".

"Isn't this too cruel..."

Ming'ai, who was wearing a shirt, covered her mouth and her eyes wandered between Luo Ji and Su Chen.

This means that...

"Mr. Expert, you know how to win this game."

On the big screen, Su Chen walked up to the little girl and gently put a hand on her shoulder.

His voice was still calm:

"And when you discard this chess piece, you will also create... the fourth victim of the simulated case."

"Remember, you are the one who decides her life or death, not me."

boom!

In the hall, Luo Ji, who was sitting behind the chessboard, felt a muffled thunder explode in his head.

In an instant, unprecedented pressure, like an avalanche, buried him, causing his originally straight back to bend slightly.

The fingers under his clothes were squeezed together tightly, and the knuckles were turned white from the pressure.

There was a long silence.

Also stunned along with Luo Ji were everyone in the hall and even everyone who was watching the "Live Broadcast"!

[Damn, even though I had somewhat expected this situation, when Su Chen said those words, I still got goosebumps! 】

[I didn’t expect that a simulated variety show would actually make my scalp numb. Su Chen, a simulated gangster, is simply more cruel than a real serial murderer! 】

[Brother Su, please take it easy, I'm scared! 】

[If you don’t give up the pawn and lose the chess, Su Chen will detonate the bomb, and all the children will not be spared;]

[And if the pawn is abandoned and the lives of other children are saved, Luo Ji will become one of the subjective participants in killing the girl! 】

[I can see that this is a disguised version of the "Trolley Problem"! 】

[Whether to choose to ignore it and get rid of the condemnation of murder and cause more casualties, or to choose to kill one person and benefit all living beings, this question has puzzled many heroes and sages for thousands of years! 】

[It turns out that playing chess is just a cover. This is the real problem that Su Chen posed to the expert group! This is a rational and moral choice! 】

at the same time.

Baijin City Public Security Bureau, Director’s Office.

"Director, I have prepared all the information to restart the Platinum Case..."

The police officer in charge of handling the case opened the door of the office and was about to report the progress when he saw Lu Ping, director of the Baijin City Public Security Bureau, sitting silently in front of the computer.

He looked at the picture on the computer screen, the little girl, and the note attached to her body.

Director Lu, who was over fifty years old and had a slight frost on his temples, stared at the words on the note and read it silently, his eyes turning red unconsciously.

[Deceased: He XX]

[Gender: Female]

[Age: 12 years old]

[Description of the corpse: The neck was cut open with a sharp instrument, and there are traces of being violated before death. However, the clothes are neat and clearly arranged, and other body tissues are intact with no defects...]

Just looking at this description, the photos of the crime scene at that time appeared in front of the old director's eyes.

"It's exactly the same as that case..."

Lu Ping murmured.

As the third director after the Platinum Case, although he was over fifty years old, he was still just a teenager when the Platinum Case occurred.

He only remembered that during that period, corpses appeared one after another and the whole city panicked.

He was told to stay at home and not go out to play by himself like before.

His parents would check the doors and windows at home several times every night to make sure they were closed tightly. My father even bought several steel pipes and placed them next to his bed.

Every evening, after get off work, every house is closed. Some people even moved directly back to their hometowns, and there are no tourists on the streets.

In the closet, all the red clothes were put into the bottom layer. Later, they didn't even dare to have any bright colors, and black became the only color for people on the street.

Thirty-eight years ago, the director of the Baijin City Public Security Bureau, who was about to retire in two years, ordered a city-wide martial law and a blanket search, vowing to find the murderer before leaving.

However, until he died of a heart attack thirty years later, the murderer was still not caught.

After the second director took office, every few years, while Long Guo was carrying out clearing activities on old cases, the Platinum Case was brought out again and again for re-investigation.

During his tenure, there were only a few rounds of investigations, but all yielded no results.

Then it came to myself.

Calculate, in a few years, it is time for me to retire.

However, as long as the murderer is not caught, the shadow of the Baijin case may still shroud the city for decades.

"The place where the first victim died, outside the door, is the security booth where her eldest brother was on duty."

The old director Lu Ping turned to face the young police officer and slowly said:

"The place where the second and third victims died, a hundred meters away, was the Baijin City Public Security Bureau at that time."

The young police officer in charge of sorting out the case stood silently in place, looking at the yellowed old map of Baijin City pasted behind the old director.

The red location marked on the old map is still eye-catching, that is the place where the victims of the Baijin case were found.

The director has been replaced three times, but the map that was used to study the case has been hanging on the wall of the office.

"This is a pity and a shame."

Noticing the gaze of the younger generation, the old director was in his hands, stroking the yellowed paper:

"After so many years, the people of Baijin City are still waiting for our explanation..."

······

In an old residential house in the center of Baijin City

Two white-haired old men leaned on the sofa alone, watching the live broadcast on TV, tears in their eyes.

They were the biological parents of the fourth victim of the Platinum case.

When the case happened, the child was only twelve years old, and they were only in their early forties.

"Daughter, my daughter, I haven't forgotten you..."

The old lady in her eighties was a little confused, and she saw the cute little girl on TV through her tearful eyes.

She stretched out her hand tremblingly, grabbing in the air.

As if she wanted to recover the regret of that afternoon more than thirty years ago.
