Take the old attack to solve the case

Yin Xiaotian rents a one-bedroom, one-living single apartment, with a total area of ​​about 50 square meters. The landlord bought this apartment for investment purposes. The decoration is more delicate, and the furniture and electrical appliances are also prepared by the landlord. , belongs to the type that you can move in with your bag.

Anyone who saw their good house turned into... a "horror hell" would let out a scream to express their feelings.

Even the trace inspectors who entered together were startled by the terrifying murals extending from the ceiling to the ground in the room.

To be honest, if these murals are disassembled for medical students to see, they are nothing more than pictures of muscles and bones with skin peeled off. But when the whole room is full of such pictures, interspersed with Limbs and heads were cut off, blood flowed all over the ground, and even the whole ground was painted with blood, bones, and minced meat. Even the criminal police who were used to seeing corpses couldn't help feeling a little chilly in their hearts.

"Skinned, beheaded, cut in half...Is this a human pig?...Is this pile of meat slices from Ling Chi?" Sun Liang was dragged by the inspector to help take pictures, looking at these paintings from the roof to the ground, he I just feel my scalp tingling.

Yin Xiaotian is a student of the Art Department of the art school, and she studies oil painting. According to the teacher who came to the art school, her grades in cultural subjects are average, but she is very talented in painting, and she belongs to the kind of student who is very spiritual. This spiritual student was very silent at school, and almost never spoke. In addition, she did not apply for boarding, so she had no friends.

The art school teacher stood at the door and looked inside for a while. Sun Liang finished taking photos and was about to go out when he suddenly frowned and whispered the word "strange".

"What's strange?" Sun Liang glanced at the art school teacher suspiciously, then turned his head to look in the room. Except for those paintings, there was nothing strange about other places. Of course, even if there were strange things, under the influence of these paintings , and would unconsciously ignore it, so Sun Liang cheered up immediately.

The art school teacher withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes slightly, and seemed to be a little puzzled, "These paintings...although the brushwork is very similar to Yin Xiaotian's paintings, but...it doesn't look like Yin Xiaotian's paintings."

Zhang Zimu happened to come over, and when he heard what the art school teacher said, he immediately asked, "You mean, these paintings might have been drawn by others?"

"Ah?" The art school teacher was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head, "No, these should be drawn by Yin Xiaotian, the homework she handed in once was similar to this kind of surreal painting, the brushwork is almost exactly the same, but... He pointed to the paintings in the room, and continued: "These paintings are more like realistic paintings."

When he said this, there was an involuntary tremor in his voice.

Surrealism emphasizes the unity of life and death, dream and reality, while realism emphasizes the restoration of reality.

In a word, if these murals are surreal paintings, they are nothing more than Yin Xiaotian's paintings of terrifying dreams. If they are realism... What has she ever seen?

Soon they knew the answer.

The searchers found a large number of photos in Yin Xiaotian's computer and digital camera. In the photos, they saw at least ten people being tortured and killed.

……

The investigators still stayed in the Yuyuan Building apartment to continue searching to see if they could find any new discoveries, but Zhang Zimu and the others had already returned to the police force.

"Captain, do you think this is real or a PS photo?" Zhong Yiyan's face turned pale, not only because the photos were too bloody, but because these photos were too real. But it's a big case.

Before Zhang Zimu could speak, Sun Liang, who had been flipping through photos on the nearby computer, suddenly pointed to a face in a photo and said, "Zhong Jinhao, a first-year student at Binhai University, disappeared last December."

Everyone was shocked. Sun Liang's recognition and memory of faces were several times that of ordinary people. He said it with such certainty that there should be nothing wrong.But if the missing Zhong Jinhao was indeed killed, what about the other people in the photo?

After a while, Sun Liang pointed to a corpse in the photo, "Song Yaxi, a third-year student at No. [-] Middle School, disappeared in March this year."

Missing persons are under the control of the police station, but because the Criminal Police Brigade just uncovered a human trafficking syndicate some time ago, this syndicate not only abducted and sold infants and young children, but also lured and imprisoned young men and women for prostitution.The case was a big deal at the time, and various regions collaborated across provinces and cities to arrest many members of the syndicate. The Municipal Public Security Bureau made a file of missing persons in Binhai City in recent years. Sun Liang had looked through this file.

The last date of this file happened to be March, and Song Yaxi was the last missing person in the file.

Afterwards, Sun Liang recognized the four people in the photo, all of whom were missing persons in Binhai last year and this year.

"Captain..." Everyone looked at Zhang Zimu nervously. This...is a major murder case. There are more than a dozen people in the photo alone, and no one was photographed...It's hard to imagine.

Zhang Zimu stood up and took a deep breath, picked up the police cap on the table, "I'll go to Bureau Wu, and you immediately make a relationship form of Yin Xiaotian, Sun Liang, you go to the forensic department and take the photos as much as possible." Classify and see the specific number of victims."

"Yes, Captain!"

……

"Investigate! No matter what, find out the source of these photos!" Director Wu immediately issued an order after flipping through a few photos.

In recent years, the number of various criminal cases has been rising, but in general, such cruel serial killings are relatively rare, and Yin Xiaotian is only a girl under 20 years old, it is impossible to have the ability to kill so many people alone, and That is to say, there may be more than one culprit.

Thinking of such a group of insane murderers in Binhai City, Director Wu, who was used to seeing big scenes, felt his scalp tingle even if he was a criminal policeman.

"Director Wu, look at this." Zhang Zimu took out a photo and put it in front of Director Wu.

In the photo is a young man. His limbs and head were cut off, his abdomen was opened again, and some internal organs were taken out and placed neatly beside him. There was a thick layer of blood under his body.From the photos, it can be seen that the man had his limbs cut off while he was alive, and finally died of blood loss. After his death, his head was cut off and his abdomen was cut open.

The entire photo is almost full of blood and severed limbs, only a small piece of concrete is exposed, and Zhang Zimu is referring to that small piece of concrete.

"This is..." Director Wu looked at it for a while, and suddenly his eyes widened.

A symbol was drawn with red paint on the small piece of concrete floor. Because the red color was too much like blood, many people might ignore the symbol, but when Director Wu saw the symbol clearly, his forehead suddenly began to faint. I'm sweating.

……

Binhai City was just a small fishing village before liberation. Not far from this small fishing village is a small island. This small island used to be the nest of a group of pirates. According to the investigation of the historical and cultural relics department, this group of pirates had already existed during the Qing Dynasty. , It was not wiped out until Jianguo, and later because of the expansion of Binhai City, the reclamation project completely disappeared the island.

There are many records about this group of pirates in the local chronicles, and they can be summed up with only two words: "cruel".

Especially in the late Qing Dynasty, the leader of this group of pirates was named Heilong. He was influenced by a missionary at that time and believed in God. Turn to Satan.

In order to worship Satan, he tortured and killed a person at sea every month, throwing his flesh and blood into the legendary channel on the sea. He also established a Satanism based on this, so that the people under his command must believe in Satan.

The play records that Heilong was the leader for about 30 years until he was assassinated by his subordinates during the Republic of China, but the so-called Satanism he believed in and supported Satan has been handed down. Even after the founding of the People's Republic of China, some people believed in Satan. During the [-]s, many devolved "ghosts and snake spirits" mysteriously disappeared, and they were secretly killed by these people to serve Satan.

It wasn't until the 80s of the last century that this Satanism gradually disappeared during repeated crackdowns, rectifications, and other activities.

……

Director Wu transferred from the army to Binhai City in the late 80s. At that time, several of the most important members of the Satanism happened to be arrested. Although it was only said that a few murderers had been caught, Director Wu had read the internal information. , Those ferocious symbols can be described as impressive.

"Is it Satanism?" Director Wu frowned deeply, and he waved his hand to let Zhang Zimu go out first. He must report to the Municipal Bureau. unbearable.

……

Zhang Zimu came out of Director Wu's office with a serious face. Instead of taking the elevator, he chose to take the stairs. While walking, he slowly recalled the whole case.

Yin Xiaotian died in the fire escape. According to the news from the trace inspection, there was no trace of anyone else in the fire escape except Yin Xiaotian. So, she obviously took the elevator to the seventeenth floor at first. Why did he go down the stairs again later?

Unless, she has something urgent and can't wait for the elevator, or... She doesn't want to wait on the seventeenth floor for a minute.

What did she see on the seventeenth floor?
