The Last Killer

"Do you know what I found on the murder weapon?" Dr. Claremont strode into the office, and immediately asked Tia and Leo who were discussing the case.The old man smiled and waited for someone to ask for advice in surprise, but after not getting the expected response, he could only continue to say angrily: "Well, I know you all believe that dude from the Brandy family is the real murderer, but you are wrong !"

He took out a few pages of information from the folder, "Look, this is a sperm spot covered by blood stains that I found on the branch inserted into the anus after I conducted a spectral analysis of all the murder weapons. It may be Diluted by a large amount of blood. Although the number is small, it can prove that the child was sexually assaulted before his death, maybe after his death-I mean the No.2 dead, Colin did not have it, and the first time It's been too long, and it's hard to find out."

Now Tia was really surprised, and flipped through the information in disbelief: "It's impossible, a person who is full of disgust and hatred for homosexuals will not have sex with the same sex... unless the murderers in the two cases are different, but From the modus operandi and other details, it is indeed the same person..."

"So, this is a big doubt. So I tried to extract DNA from the damaged sperm spot, which was very difficult, and finally succeeded once using the magnetic bead method. After comparison, it was confirmed that Little Brandy was not the real murderer. Dr. Claremont said affirmatively to the female detective: "Tia, you caught the wrong person this time."

Tia held the inspection report tightly, and sat down on the office chair with her legs softened.

"Not Clyde? Brandy, who could it be?" Leo frowned and said to himself, the words that Li Biqing hesitated flashed in his mind: "I think... Clyde may Not a murderer."

"Now I can finally feel the true emotions of the murderer. The murderer is a homosexual, or a potential homosexual, but for some psychological reason, he is unable to have normal sex. Only blood and corpses of the same sex can make him produce Strong sexual arousal, so he chose to kill to satisfy his desire." Dr. Claremont turned to Leo and said, "I have to admire the intuition of that Asian boy, it was his rose that struck me For the inspiration, please thank him personally. If there is a chance, I would like to talk to him again, I wonder if he would like to."

"I think he would be very happy, doctor." Leo replied with mixed feelings.

"There's another question I'm still thinking about. Why is there no trace of sexual assault on Colin? I'd better check it carefully..." Dr. Claremont murmured, and strode out of the office again.

In the evening, when Leo returned to the apartment, he saw Li Biqing curled up on the sofa with his legs curled up, writing something quickly with a thick notebook on his knees—he seemed to like writing in this posture.Hearing Leo's return, he raised his head to say hello, then buried his head down again.

Seeing the other party's listless appearance, Leo began to reflect on whether he had been too harsh on the boy before, especially in terms of tone.He knew very well that he, who often faced desperadoes, unconsciously revealed that too cold and harsh sense of oppression when he spoke, which was not something an ordinary boy in his early twenties could bear.Even Jasmine would criticize him: "Leo, if you talk to your future girlfriend in this tone, you won't have a girlfriend!"

He didn't care if he would offend his future girlfriend - at least not at the moment, but he didn't want to make him feel bad for this clean and gentle boy in front of him.

Leo sat down on the other side of the sofa, hesitated, and finally said: "I'm sorry, because of my attitude towards you yesterday."

"I accept your apology." Li Biqing replied sullenly, "But I still can't interfere, right?"

"Yes." Before the other party got up and went back to the room, Leo added: "But you can interrupt."

"...What?" Li Biqing stopped and looked at him.

"Dr. Claremont said he wanted to chat with you, about the merits, I think."

The Chinese boy burst into a surprised smile: "Really? Leo, is this your compensation? Thank you...I don't need your apology anymore, I will give it back to you."

Leo laughed: "There is no need to pay it back. Do you want to visit the FBI office building with me after class tomorrow?"

As if he didn't know how to express his extreme joy, Li Biqing jumped from the sofa with bare feet and punched him hard in the chest: "It's great, I've wanted to see it for a long time!"

When Leo pounced on him, he reflexively wanted to kick him, but then abruptly withheld his strength, "This is assaulting the police!" He put his face on the floor pretendingly.

"You catch me!" Li Biqing stretched out his wrist and counterattacked triumphantly, "How to sentence, police officer?"

Leo couldn't help laughing, "One hour of social welfare service time—location, kitchen."

"Yes, officer!" Li Biqing jumped up, put on his slippers, and ran towards the kitchen.

After school the next afternoon, Leo kept his promise and drove to the gate of the campus and took Li Biqing to the FBI office in Ohio.Walking in the orderly office building with people coming and going, the Chinese boy, although following the rules, still couldn't restrain his curiosity. He looked around with interest shining in his eyes.

After entering Leo's office, Li Biqing was quickly covered by a curtain drawn by the federal agents before he could clearly see the various photos plastered all over the wall.

"What pictures are those?" he asked curiously.

"It's related to the case in hand." Leo replied vaguely.

"Finished case?"

"Hmm." Leo frowned, obviously not wanting him to get involved in this topic.Fortunately, at this moment, the silver-haired Dr. Claremont opened the door, walked in with his vigorous steps no less than that of a young man, and stretched out his hand to Li Biqing: "You are really here, boy, is Leo here?" Thank you for me?"

Li Biqing shook hands with him, and said very respectfully: "I have done nothing worthy of your thanks, doctor. As a top expert in criminal psychology, you are an amateur like us who only has interest but no knowledge. The presence."

"That's right, the compliment is very sweet." Dr. Claremont smiled heartily and patted him on the shoulder. "Sit down, let's have a good chat."

Li Biqing sat down on the sofa somewhat cautiously. Leo made an excuse to go out to get a drink and wanted to leave them a space to talk alone, but was stopped by the old man: "Leo, when you come in with coffee, please bring your partner and Tia also brought it, let's talk together."

Thus, three detectives from the Criminal Investigation Department, a highly respected expert in criminal psychology and a young Chinese boy who is still studying in a language school, started to investigate the serial murder case on campus in the office of the FBI branch. A crucial conversation - of course, the value of this conversation will not be truly reflected until the murderer is arrested.

After briefly introducing the relevant case information to Li Biqing, Dr. Claremont asked with a smile: "Okay, boy, I see you have been thinking. Talk about your thoughts, the most direct and strongest thoughts, It's like the first firework exploded in the mind, grasping the brilliant light of that moment - that's inspiration. Einstein told us that it's more important than 99% sweat."

Li Biqing hesitated again and again, and whispered: "I'm afraid that my unrealistic thoughts will mislead your correct judgment..."

"No, no, no," Dr. Claremont stretched out an index finger and waved back and forth, "Don't overestimate your influence on others, we have enough judgment, everything you said is just a personal opinion, not even a reference. "

"Well, although it sounds embarrassing, I feel more at ease when I say it this way." Li Biqing took out a handheld translator from his bag. Although his English level has improved a lot, he still needs to say something. It is indispensable for some technical terms and relatively remote and complicated words.

He took a deep breath, quickly straightened his thoughts, and began to speak at a steady pace: "Now, I am that campus serial killer——"

This opening sentence, which even omits "if", adopts a tone of No. 1, which makes Leo frowned unconsciously, and Dr. Claremont's eyes hidden behind the lens began to shimmer. .

"Before knowing my true personality, it's worth looking back at my childhood: I had a 70% chance of being psychologically abused, a 40% chance of being physically and sexually abused, and a [-]% chance that my parents were mentally ill history and criminal record. I had a controlling mother who punished me for my mistakes like bedwetting, skipping school, slapping me with a belt and locking me in a dark basement. Full of fear of women, unable to communicate normally with the opposite sex, let alone have a heart of love.My father is absent, or alcoholic, short-tempered, and indifferent to me. When I was frequently sexually harassed by the boy next door, he not only did not Help me, but beat, scolded and laughed at me for being a bitch, and encouraged me to use violence to show the other party a little color, otherwise I would not be considered a man-even though I was only eight or nine years old at the time.

Afterwards, no matter how I moved, the above situation never improved, so I began to have a sexual rebellion and sexual disorder. I dislike women. Although I have impulses towards men’s bodies, I also feel threatened by their power. It’s normal. Sexual behavior made me feel the fear of being unable to control this power, so I began to seek pleasure from injured flesh and corpses - at first it might be a sparrow, a stray cat or dog, I deliberately injured them and pierced them with a branch They, finally cut off their heads.My parents didn't care when they found out, thinking it was just a boy's game.

At school I couldn't get along well with my classmates, they thought I was weird.This situation may be greatly improved after the seventh and eighth grades, because I discovered that people can't just live in their own world, but have to communicate with others.When I try to put on a mask of cheerfulness, enthusiasm, and confidence, people are obviously much nicer to me, and some girls and boys even show their affection to me.I tried hooking up with one of them, but to bad I still couldn't have normal sex with them.

I started to try all kinds of outrageous ways, bondage, SM, but it was still not enough, far from enough, the emptiness of not being able to reach the climax was maddening!Finally one day, I took a decisive step-I attacked the boy I was dating and stabbed him with a tree branch. The blood gushing from the wound and his painful wailing made me feel an unprecedented excitement.I went on hurting and torturing him, the way I would treat a child who is helpless.Fucking him on his deathbed gave me the safety and satisfaction of being in control, ejaculating in his smoldering corpse, and finally thrusting a long, sharp branch into his place as this The curtain call of a perfect sex..."

A phosphorescent glow flickered in the eyes of the Chinese boy, reflecting the gloomy excitement on his face.The ghost of the murderer behind the scenes descended and dominated his body. From every look, every sneer, and every whisper, there was an aura of darkness, madness and evil, covering the entire room.

Years of professional habits were deeply oppressed by this breath, which made Tia unknowingly reach her waist and touch the handle of her gun, and her underwear was wet with cold sweat.

Rob, who was standing next to the sofa, took two steps back unconsciously, and pressed his palm on the hard walnut tabletop. Below the tabletop was a hidden red alarm button.

Leo maintains a relaxed posture sitting cross-legged, staring directly at the speaker without blinking eyes, with a sculpture-like expressionless face. If anyone touches his shoulder at this time, he will find that his muscles are tense, as if A bowstring ready to go.

Only Dr. Claremont leisurely poured himself another cup of coffee and sipped it unhurriedly.

The villainous monologue continues: "After my first taste of orgasm, I was both excited and terrified that the police would one day break into the door. But months passed and that moment never came. I finally let go , decided to do it again under the urging of desire, and then sprinkled the rose petals prepared in advance-inspired by the bouquet I brought on the last date, and the girl insisted that I send flowers. Turns out, the idea That’s great, the bloody rose on the corpse, how suitable as the cheers and applause after the curtain call, isn’t it?”

The boy's eyes slanted over, as if staring at everyone in the room, cold, cruel, but full of charm, it was a kind of trembling beauty from the dark soul, just like the blooming flowers beside the gloomy and decayed tombstone bloody rose.

The moment Riot stood up, Dr. Claremont grabbed his arm and pulled him back onto the sofa.

"Pretty good... It can be said that your talent in criminal psychology is far beyond my expectations." The silver-haired old man smiled and applauded, "I originally wanted to share my share of the crimes related to this serial murder case." Psychological research reports for you to read, but there is no need for this now - our point of view, the same part is more than 70%. Of course, mine may be more rigorous, but yours is full of bolder imagination, only young people energy to create such a masterpiece.”

"Leo, you have brought me a good seedling." He patted the black-haired detective on the shoulder happily and gratifiedly, then turned to Li Biqing and asked, "Son, after finishing your studies, if you are still interested in this aspect?" If you are interested, I can write a recommendation letter for you and let you work with me, how about it?"

"I wish for it." Li Biqing smiled shyly.Within seconds of finishing his speech, he seemed to emerge from that state of ecstasy.In the smooth chestnut hair, white and smooth skin, and delicate and gentle facial features, the dark breath quickly receded like a tide, without any trace, and he was completely different from just now.While agreeing to Dr. Cheng, he even took a peek at Leo, showing a mischievous look of "I didn't interfere, you invited me."

Leo looked at him with a complicated expression, and a bunch of thoughts ran around in a mess in his head, like a crowded street with all the traffic lights broken.This Chinese boy who lived with him and Jasmine's little boyfriend, from the first time he saw him, he always had a soft and confused appearance in his impression.The other party is too young, so that when I get along with him, I unconsciously take on the mentality of looking down on the senior and the superior. The way they get along is not so much a brother-in-law helping a future brother-in-law as an elder brother Protect the naive little brother.

It wasn't until today that Leo discovered that this boy still had such a wise and sharp side. This huge gap made him feel at a loss for a while... Rubbing the faintly aching brow with his fingertips, Leo decided to put it aside for the time being. All the thoughts, wait for the smooth thinking to be sorted out, and then down the whole cup of cold coffee in one breath.

"You just... frightened me, I almost drew my gun." Rob muttered to Li Biqing in a low voice.

"Sorry, I'm always like this, I can't control it when I get into the state." The latter said embarrassingly.

"There are two more questions. I want to hear your opinion." Dr. Claremont's words relieved his embarrassment. "First, why is there no trace of sexual assault on Colin's body?"

Li Biqing thought for a while, and said: "Because he was not the murderer's intended target. I personally prefer that after the second campus murder caused an uproar, the murderer became restless. From the rumors, he keenly smelled Some kind of public opinion guidance available, so he decided to choose a suitable target to achieve the purpose of blaming others."

"The person who was blamed was Clyde? Brandy, and the person he carefully chose was Colin, who had a fierce conflict with Clyde in public." Tia said suddenly.

Li Biqing nodded.

"Second question, when do you think Clyde? Brandy is suitable for release?"

This time Li Biqing replied very simply: "If I decide, I will release him in a few days. If he is detained all the time, the murderer will not make another move during this period, and the final judgment will be made after three or two years. The unlucky Clyde was pressed by the turbulent public opinion to a long sentence that could never be served in a lifetime, and then the murderer could change states and identities, and come out again.

If Clyde is released on the grounds of insufficient evidence, the murderer will feel nervous. In order to further blame him, the murderer is likely to attack again in a short period of time. I guess the next target is similar to Colin, both of whom are related to Clyde. People who have had serious conflicts.The police can secretly monitor these people and catch the murderer when he strikes for the fourth time—of course, this method has its own advantages and disadvantages. useful; the downside is that once the police fail to protect the target population, it may cause innocent casualties. "

He spread his hands helplessly: "I can only think of this step, and the police will have to figure out how to deal with it in the end."

Dr. Claremont nodded and said, "Thank you for your opinion. Let's end today's conversation. It was a pleasant afternoon tea time." He put down his coffee cup, got up and walked to the office door, and explained again: "In Oh, take this kid home, and then we're going to have a meeting."
