"Just left."
Yan Qing sighed, and threw the bamboo slips in his hand to Zhao Hanzang, "I taught you Xiaozhuan, how much do you remember?"
Zhao Hanzang scanned the incantations on the bamboo slips, "I know them all."
"Come and read later." Yan Qing added a plate of cinnabar and a talisman pen in his hand, and filled the gap in the magic circle on the ground, "Let's form the formation."
He retreated outside the magic circle, and made a tactic with one hand, expanding the space of the laboratory even wider.
Bai Min turned back into a tiger shape, his black and white intertwined fur gleaming.After Zhao Hanzang finished reciting the mantra on the bamboo slips, the flame in his palm ignited the bamboo slips. He threw the bamboo slips into the formation, and when the flames instantly tore the air and expanded and made a sharp sound, he transformed into a white dragon in its original form.
The enlarged laboratory can barely accommodate the two of them.The golden-red flames spread along the cinnabar runes, coating all the red lines with golden light.The golden light turned into gravel and rose slowly, entangled with the flames in the formation, and combined into a series of incomprehensible images.
But the flame brought a cold wind to blow Yan Qing's long black hair.The swirling golden light unleashed wind blades that tore through his shirt sleeves.Yan Qing's clothes changed into a moon white toga, and the wind blade cut across the flowing cloth without leaving a trace.
The light of Jinsha imprinted in his eyes, those images made Yan Qing frown, "Danhe is dead."
"Isn't he leading the monsters that escaped from the devil's abyss to the outer domain?" Zhao Han uttered human words when he hid the dragon form, and it was more vigorous and deep."
"Someone swallowed his power," the image flashed in the dust and mist formed by the golden sand, "it's a ghost on the eighteenth floor who fled at the same time."
Yan Qing raised his hand in the direction of the formation, light-colored spiritual power gushed out and extinguished the flames, the golden runes also lost their light, and the cinnabar became scorched black.There was no light in the laboratory, and night shrouded his moon white robe.
Bai Min and Zhao Hanzang turned back into human form, but they were a little puzzled, "Where is he?"
"Hell." Yan Qing pointed out which hell it was in English.
Although the Ministry of Xiu'an has close contacts with the underworld, it has no communication with hell and heaven. In the United States, it deals more with government departments and wizards.
"We can send people to negotiate." Zhao Hanzang said.
Yan Qing didn't frown anymore, but put on a thoughtful expression, "Who should you think about before this, if you can kill him, his strength will double."
Even if Hell is willing to hand over this ghost, if it cannot be killed or captured, it will be in vain.
--------------------------------
Will walked into the FBI building and was stopped by Crawford on the way to the forensic room, and Crawford led him in another direction.
"This case may be bigger than we thought." Crawford's tone was a little cold, "You know BAU."
"Another team of profilers." Will nodded. "Is our case serious?"
"You can say that." Crawford quickened his pace and led Will into the BAU conference room. The six BAU team members had already sat down at the round table, Beverly, Price and Zeller also came.
Team leader Alan Hotchner stood up to greet Crawford and Will after seeing them walk in.
Crawford and Hodge knew each other, and they simply shook hands. Then Crawford patted Will's arm and introduced him, "This is Agent Hochner, the team leader of the BAU."
Will lowered his eyes, but didn't shake hands. He just nodded and introduced himself, "Will Graham."
Hodge didn't mind such a move. He asked the two to sit down and join the BAU discussion.
Will sat in the empty seat next to Beverly, scanned the surrounding people and buried himself in the information given to him by the police.He is not used to working in groups, and if he just discusses the victim's wound condition with Beverly, Jimmy, and Brian, it will take him a while to get used to it.
But sitting with another group of profilers on the same case; he wouldn't like it, and the people he was working with wouldn't necessarily like it either.His profiling is sometimes so clever that it seems dogmatic, he is not suitable for teamwork at all, but Crawford insists on calling him.
Crawford was on the verge of becoming obsessed with the case.
The collaborators are also profilers, and they can easily see Will's terrible and sensitive mental state when he is trapped in his own imagination.
Will pursed his lips and opened the file. This is the case that BAU is investigating. The three victims within three months were at the crime scenes in Colorado, Kansas and Nevada respectively, leaving traces on the ground where the bodies lay The scorch marks on the broad wings were like those of the two bodies Will had found in Pennsylvania.But these victims did not die from suffocation due to neck injuries.
There are two other documents on the table, one is about the case that Will investigated before, and the other is about a case a year ago. The other five victims were killed with a single knife, which also left scorched wings. , the shape of the murder weapon can be deduced from the knife marks left on the corpse.
Scorch marks on the wings appeared in all three cases.
** Seeing that Will had finished flipping through the two files, he released a photo of the new victim on the screen in front of the round table.
"Babbitt Jackson, 31 years old, a businessman, his body was found in an alley in Las Vegas this morning, with burnt wings on his back." ** introduced.
Bev tapped Will's arm with his finger and told him in a low voice, "When this case was handed over to the FBI by the Las Vegas police. There is a connection. But he hasn't reported it yet, but after discussing with Agent Hotchner, they decided to investigate the case together."
Will didn't speak, and looked up at the crime scene photos on the screen. Blood was overflowing from Jackson's eyes, nostrils, ears and the corners of his mouth. According to the autopsy, he was killed around eleven o'clock last night. Has solidified black.
"It's hemorrhage caused by temperature imbalance." Zeller bent over Beverly and said to Will. The body has been transported back to Quantico's laboratory. They have been busy all afternoon, and Rhett and Gideon also went Corpses have been observed, "but no cause for temperature imbalance has been found."
"Jackson's left elbow was dislocated, and the index and middle fingers of his left and right hands had different degrees of wear and bleeding. He may have resisted the murderer." Morgan analyzed.
"That's not resistance, it's struggle." Will interjected, "He's afraid because he knows what the murderer will do to him."
The conference room was quiet for a while, Will turned his head and glanced at the bewildered Price and Zeller, licked his dry lips, and added, "Look at his throat."
Gideon nodded and was the first to break the deadlock. "The victim knew the murderer?"
Will put one arm on the table and stretched out his five fingers, as if he wanted to express what he wanted to say in this way, "He doesn't know what the murderer looks like or what his name is, but he Know that...power. It's like the kind of power that the hangman wanted to show. But the two victims the hangman left in Pennsylvania, who," Will gritted his teeth, "I don't see fear in them .They were an offensive gesture."
"These three cases are not the same person," Hodge said. "Serial killers don't change their modus operandi easily."
"Although they all have scorch marks on their wings, different modus operandi may be the personal marks of different killers. Are they in a competition?" BAU team member Al said.
"The time is wrong. The Hangman started committing crimes 13 years ago." Rhett was talking.
"Or earlier." Will added.
"Yes, the Winchester brothers also left several corpses before this, with various modus operandi, slitting throats, decapitating, and burning corpses. We used to think that they were demon worshipers, but this may need to be changed now. Viewpoint, devil worshipers don't draw a circle that binds demons and then kills them," Reed said, "and...they don't abuse their victims, as they would have done before."
"This time they only care about killing these 'angels.'"
"Angel..." Will murmured in a low voice, "If I want to kill an angel, then what is Margery Carter? Why are his wings broken?"
"Will."
Will recovered from Crawford's yell, and without speaking, he passed the photo of Margery Carter's corpse in the file to the center of the round table, "Angels, demons, and fallen angels. Of course they are not demon worshipers." Those who are not worshipers of any of the three creatures."
"But the fallen angels (fallenangel) fall (fallen) does not mean, literally fall (fall). They betrayed God, and thus were expelled from heaven." Reed said.
"The angels in the Bible don't have wings, they don't have a human body, they are just a ball of light. But look at the angels here, they have a human form and wings." Will replied, "The hangman may be recognizing the identity of creatures like angels." When he existed, he also studied physics." There was a sense of sarcasm and joke in his tone, "When angels fell from the sky, he let the flames burn their wings."
"These angels want to use human bodies, so the victims are religious?" Beverly asked.
"You can say that." Will wrinkled his nose, always feeling something was wrong.
"And their religious background also makes it easier for these victims to be persuaded—they are angels." Morgan said, "but how was the murderer persuaded?"
Now, they speculate that there are three murderers, one is the hangman, the Winchester brothers, the murder weapon they used was a triangular dagger, which killed five victims a year ago, and a mysterious wing.Except for the last one, the profiles written by the remaining two people based on the known information are not so easy to be convinced.
"The hangman started committing crimes more than ten years ago, and most of the victims are in Virginia. There is no specific choice at the crime scene, as if he saw a suitable person on the road and killed him." Will said on the sidelines , asked himself the question, and the BAU team members listened quietly, "He had no plan, but he was calm and restrained. And leaving Virginia to commit crimes in Maryland made it feel like he moved, so he took a walk in another place. The only two exceptions were a crime in Pennsylvania and the killing of Clemens Hall in Iowa. Both transitions were equally special to him."
Yan Qing sighed, and threw the bamboo slips in his hand to Zhao Hanzang, "I taught you Xiaozhuan, how much do you remember?"
Zhao Hanzang scanned the incantations on the bamboo slips, "I know them all."
"Come and read later." Yan Qing added a plate of cinnabar and a talisman pen in his hand, and filled the gap in the magic circle on the ground, "Let's form the formation."
