The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.

The reason why "Jinro" has become the so-called national liquor in South Korea is because of its low alcohol content and low price, so its alias is also called "poor man's liquor".

Jack had the "Jinro" liquor, which had a very faded smell, removed and replaced it with "Ocean's Blue", a Chinese liquor that is more common in Korea.

In fact, neither of them is a big drinker, but Jack had said before that he would treat Ma Xidao to Chinese liquor, so he naturally couldn't go back on his word. This made the two hostesses' eyes bulge. This liquor is not cheap in Korea, and since they were in a nightclub, it cost nearly 300 US dollars a bottle.

Ma Xidao took a sip with his teeth bared, then put down the glass with a smile on his face. "Since that bastard may not be the real murderer, I have a clue that may be useful to you."

Jack was a little confused. This guy had been absent before noon today. Where did he get the clue now?

"Asibaba, what are you looking at?" His fat face turned red, and he didn't know whether it was because he was drunk or because his character was questioned by his new friends.

"Didn't I say before that I would go and find out the situation for you? I've been wandering around Itaewon all afternoon today."

"Tell me about it. If it's useful, I'll owe you a favor." Jack immediately became interested. He didn't expect that this guy was not really distracted before.

Ma Xidao leaned forward and lowered his voice mysteriously, "Recently, there is an urban legend circulating in Itaewon, saying that people often see a female ghost in the middle of the night, with long hair and wearing white clothes.

I asked the police officers patrolling nearby, and they said that someone had actually seen it. When the female ghost saw someone, she would lift her long hair to reveal a very scary face.

"Female ghost? And an urban legend?" Jack was a little confused. What did this all mean?

"Oppa, you're so annoying."

"You are trying to scare us on purpose, right? I have to go home alone tonight."

"Asiba, stop making trouble."

Ma Xidao pushed away the two hostesses who were acting coquettishly beside him and spoke to Jack seriously.

"I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but a patrol officer mentioned a detail, saying that every time this female ghost appeared, she would push a supermarket shopping cart."

Jack's eyes lit up, "Do you suspect that this female ghost is the murderer in disguise?"

Ma Xidao chuckled and spread his hands, "I don't know, but it's a bit of a coincidence that the 'Legend of the White-robed Woman' just happened to become popular in the past month."

-

Jack didn't stay long. Now that he had a clue, he no longer wanted to continue drinking with them. He immediately left Ma Xidao behind and returned to the FBI's base alone.

Everyone had just fallen asleep when they were woken up by someone who reeked of alcohol.

After Jack told everyone the "urban legend" that Ma Xidao had heard, Jubal stroked his chin and pondered for a long time before speaking.

"The proportion of male serial killers is as high as 9%, and because the scene of the body dumping showed a certain degree of organization, we have never considered the possibility of females in our previous profiles."

"But if we combine the messy crime scene with the body dumping site, we can also conclude that the murderer is a woman who acts without any method," Aubrey continued to analyze.

Criminal psychology does not emphasize gender equality. There are huge differences between male and female serial killers in terms of their motives and methods.

In terms of motivation, the most common motives for female serial killers are money and power, followed by revenge, while for men, it is more related to sex, and the derived motivations include the desire for control and manipulation.

In terms of killing methods, female serial killers tend to use poison, while male serial killers mainly use violence.

Jiejie nodded in agreement. "But when female serial killers use violent means, the crime scenes will appear disorganized, but they are usually more careful when abandoning the bodies, regardless of whether they are organized or not."

"In that case, we shouldn't use sexual psychology to explain her behavior." Clay said, looking at Jack.

"Yes, we all know that Li Jianyu is good at playing the strong party in intimate relationships and taking the lead, which is manifested by asking his girlfriend to have plastic surgery, which is a common 'PUA' method.

Then the real identity of the murderer we are looking for may be his ex-girlfriend who was asked by him to undergo plastic surgery. In connection with the urban legend of the "woman in white", she was probably abandoned after the plastic surgery failed.

And those disfigured dead people are her replacements for herself.”

After listening to Jack's speculation, Alice's fingers were already flying flexibly on the keyboard.

"Wait a minute, this shouldn't be difficult to check, but it will take some time to retrieve the relevant plastic surgery medical records. That bastard has too many ex-girlfriends. I'll start with the most recent ones and work my way back."

Hannah pulled out a chair and sat next to her, also opening her computer. "I remember that Li Jianyu had several fiancées who had canceled their engagements. Well, this one is Liu Xiubin, a real estate agent who was engaged to him about two years ago."

Soon, Hannah cheered, and a picture of a slender, pretty woman appeared on the screen. "Bingo, guess what I found."

Everyone rushed to her computer screen. Jubal was the closest and read the records first. "Liu Xiubin used to work for a real estate company. That real estate company was the one that sold the office in Itaewon to Li Jianyu."

Aubrey was immediately delighted, "So as a real estate agent, she probably has the key to that office, so she knows how to get in and out of there without attracting attention."

As he spoke, he leaned over to Alice's computer again and spoke excitedly, "Honey, can you find out where Liu Xiubin lives?"

Alice rolled her eyes at him but didn't correct his address. "I don't know. She moved out of the apartment she rented more than a year ago. Not only that, she deleted all her social media accounts shortly after she broke off her engagement with Li Jianyu.

I can't find any record of her subsequent work, it's as if she disappeared from the face of the earth."

"I made another discovery. I checked the Facebook of Li Jianyu's American fiancée Lauren Barrett, and I found that she started dating Li Jianyu around the time when Li Jianyu and Liu Xiubin broke off their engagement."

Hannah raised her hand like a proud schoolboy.

"Then there is a motive. Li Jianyu and Lauren Barrett were engaged for less than a month, and the first victim was killed two weeks ago."

Jiejie ruffled her hair to show her praise, "Lauren is a blonde beauty. Just like Li Jianyu said, the three-dimensional facial features of white beauties are the standard he once required his ex-girlfriends to undergo plastic surgery. She is Liu Xiubin's natural competitor.

This explains why she chose three victims, who were seen as alternatives to her rivals.”

"That's not all." Jubal suddenly realized after being reminded, "What if the three dead are not just replacements?"

He looked at Jack and said, "Do you remember what we found during the autopsy? What if those disfigurements were not just a way of venting anger?"

Jack looked serious. "The murderer's skills have been improving. She is practicing for the real opponent, Lauren."
