Profiler 3: Crime Ends

"Not just socks,? Clothes, time of death, and what I guess is the cause of death."

Jiao Yang said: "The deceased was wearing a set of thermal underwear, not a jacket. Unless it was just a distance to take out the garbage, most people would not go out wearing this. In this weather, the elderly also It’s hard to be outside with bare feet. No coat,? Bare feet without shoes and socks? Where the deceased was killed? Probably in his home,? Or someone close to him, like his children’s home.”

Blanco pondered: "What you said makes sense, but we have also handled the case where after the murder, the victim's clothes were completely stripped off to prevent the police from identifying the victim."

"I have also encountered such a case."

Jiao Yang said: "So, I said that there is a premise. It depends on the cause of death of the deceased,? Is it the same as I guessed? Carbon monoxide poisoning, this is a method of killing that requires environmental cooperation and operation. Whether you run to someone's house to turn on the gas, or invite the other person to your home, turn on the gas to poison him, it is very difficult to operate.

Combined with the fact that the murderer wanted to burn the body to wipe out the traces, but was not successful, he also discarded the body in such a place where it was easy to be found, which shows that the murderer was a novice and was very flustered after the murder.It seems that the physical value is not very good.Otherwise, if the murderer is young and strong, he can dig a hole and bury the dead, so as to delay the time when people find the body. "

"OK,? You convinced me, we will immediately investigate the missing persons in the school and nearby residents."

Blanc turned to Lu Yuanli and said, "This is very close to the school. Professor Lu, if the deceased was really from this school, do you think the case with Eric will be a series of cases?"

Lu Yuanli thought for a while and said, "Judging from the external performance and details of the two current cases, I don't think so. Serial killers usually have their own clear marks of killing and strictly abide by those details. In public The difference between stabbing the victim to death with a knife and burning the corpse to wipe out the traces is too far away."

Blanco nodded and said: "Then let's go back to confirm the cause of death of the deceased, investigate the identity of the deceased, and notify the two of you if there is any progress!"

In the afternoon, after class, Jiao Yang returned with a pile of books in his arms. Before he reached the dormitory building, he heard a commotion in the tree-lined path in front of him.

"You fucking pervert stop following her!"

"What do you know? You have no right to meddle with Elena and me!"

"Are you crazy? What does Elena have to do with you? You bastard, squint your eyes, stay away from her, you really make me sick!"

Jiao Yang walked over in surprise, separated from the onlookers, and walked into the center of the crowd.He saw Hudson growling like a raging lion, about to pounce on the pale and thin Asian young man opposite him. His roommate, Park Shengmin, was barely held back by a few students he didn't know very well.

Pu Shengmin's face also gradually turned red. He was holding something tightly in his hand, arguing incoherently: "I have no malice, I didn't do anything, I just looked at her and wanted to give this to her..."

"Tell me!"

Hudson kicked his feet vigorously and said: "You stupid pig, quickly take away your perverted thing! Take him and get away with me!"

"enough!"

An embarrassed Elena came out from the crowd, unconsciously pinched the white skirt on her body, lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, it was just a misunderstanding just now. I was too nervous, I'm sorry, It's causing trouble for everyone!"

"Eileen said everything, it was just a misunderstanding, it's all right, everyone go back to study by yourself!"

Several students around Hudson explained loudly, dragged Hudson away and dispersed the crowd.

The passing students pointed at Pu Shengmin and left, and soon there were only Pu Shengmin and Jiao Yang standing opposite him on the boulevard.

Jiao Yang thought for a while, stepped forward and said, "Let's go back to the dormitory too..."

Park Shengmin clenched his fists tightly, pressed something like a black photo frame to his chest, raised his head to look at Jiao Yang with red eyes, "Everyone here thinks I'm a monster, do you think so too?"

His expression was like a wild beast that had fallen into a trap and couldn't struggle no matter what.Jiao Yang paused and said, "Why should I think this way? Is there anything strange about you? I don't think so."

Hearing Jiao Yang's words, Pu Shengmin's sharp eyes seemed to soften.A bitter smile slowly appeared on his face, "I have been here for almost three years, but I have never had a friend. They all think that my English pronunciation is weird, I don't fit in with others, I don't sing, dance, play ball, or even... No."

"I don't sing, dance or play ball, no. As for the accent..."

Jiao Yang smiled and said: "Are there many foreigners in your hometown? There are quite a lot of foreigners in my house. We occasionally laugh at it. The Mandarin pronunciation of these friends is just a joke, no Malicious. They will also laugh at me and mix Mandarin with their hometown accent, which is not as good as they speak. I don’t think you need to care too much.”

"If only I could get to know you sooner..."

Pu Shengmin's eyes turned red, "Here, only you and Elena don't think I'm a monster. When I first came here, everyone hated my accent and refused to form a team with me to do activities. Only the Once in an English class, she brought her friends to me openly and offered to discuss in groups with me. In the past three years, only that time, only she, would take the initiative to come to me! But, Elena is so good, so excellent, I But she is such a useless person, I don't want to add trouble to her..."

"Nope!"

Jiao Yang hurriedly said: "You can come here from K country, which proves that you are also very good. Everyone is equal!"

"It's different! I actually rely on my family to..."

Pu Shengmin shook his head, "Jiao Yang, I actually envy you. You Chinese have more than 3000 students here, accounting for half of all foreign students. You can easily find friends, unlike me. Our country is There are only a few people here, I tried, but they seem to want to find locals to be friends..."

Jiao Yang felt that he was not very good at comforting people, and all his coaxing skills were practiced by Lu Yuanli.Moreover, in fact, the technology is not very good so far.Every time it depends on Professor Lu to release the water to pass the test.Cough cough... oh, speaking of it, when will Professor Lu be willing to release the water this time...

Jiao Yang suddenly found himself distracted, scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Shall we go out for dinner together tonight?"

"Okay! I want to drink miso soup!"

Pu Shengmin said: "Is eating together a way for you Chinese to communicate with each other? I feel it. In fact, we people from country K do too."

Pu Shengmin took Jiao Yang and took a taxi for a long distance before finding a K-style restaurant.

They found a seat in a corner and sat down. Pu Shengmin carefully put the things in his hand against the wall and put them aside.

Only then did Jiao Yang see clearly that it was a photo frame covered with black gauze.Frankly speaking, it is a bit like the equipment used by China to release posthumous photos.

"Well, it smells so good! That's the smell, it's really great!"

Pu Shengmin drank the miso soup that he was thinking about, and finally talked more and more.

Jiao Yang tentatively asked why they had an argument just now.

Pu Shengmin turned his head and glanced at the photo frame unconsciously, his eyes darkened again, "Because of this painting, her birthday is coming soon, I want to give her a gift. But this seems to scare Elena..."

Scared?Jiao Yang asked in surprise, "Can I take a look?"

Pu Shengmin hesitated for a moment, his face flushed slightly, "I can't draw well."

As he spoke, he pushed the photo frame towards Jiao Yang.

"Did you draw it yourself? It's amazing!"

However, as soon as Jiao Yang lifted the black veil from the photo frame, he understood why Elena was frightened.

Inside the photo frame is an oil painting in a post-modern dark style.The woman in the painting has distorted facial features and a hideous expression.The face is darker, with particularly exaggerated blond hair and white skirt, it looks a bit like a skeleton.

And, if it wasn't for the blond hair and the iconic white dress, Elena saw, maybe it would be better.Most people would not feel too beautiful when they receive such a so-called birthday present.

Jiao Yang paused, and could only say: "You are quite individual, you are very talented."

However, Park Shengmin had already seen Jiao Yang's reaction just now.The gleam in his eyes that had just lit up gradually faded away, "I am indeed a weirdo, even you think so!"

Jiao Yang was a little embarrassed, and didn't know what to say to make it up.After finishing their meal, the two went back to the dormitory together.

Jiao Yang went back to wash up and lay on the bed, he couldn't help feeling that such a sensitive, fragile, sharp and individual roommate couldn't be saved by his skills.He should go back and hang out with Professor Lu soon...

Speaking of which, often being with people with particularly high EQ will improve EQ, or will it cause your EQ to be completely redundant and plummet? !

The next day, the deceased was found in the woods outside the school, and the detailed cause of death was found out. It was indeed carbon monoxide poisoning.At the same time, according to the reaction of the contents of the deceased's stomach, the victim died four to five hours after dinner, that is, between 10:00 and 11:00 the night before the crime.

Combining these points and Jiao Yang's judgment, two days later, the identity of the deceased was preliminarily found out. It was Daxent, a retired repairman from the school.

What's more strange is that Daxent obviously has a wife.He was away from home for many days, but his wife never called the police.It was Daxent who wanted to call to check on him, but his nephew, who had been unable to be reached, called the police.

The police rushed to Dassant's home and obtained the hair he left at home for DNA comparison.At the same time, he asked Daxent's wife.

Mrs. Dassant said that the couple had a big fight two days ago.Daxont left the house angrily.This happened before. Daxent came back after going out for a few days, so she didn't call the police.

The DNA comparison results have come out, confirming that the charred male corpse is Daxent.According to Dassant's case, he suffered from tuberculosis, a highly contagious respiratory disease. For this reason, he retired early and has been recuperating for several years.

Blanco came to the school again, asked someone to find out about Daxente's situation, and gave Lu Yuanli a copy of the latest investigation results.

Jiao Yang flipped through the file and said: "If the deceased was indeed killed around 10:00 p.m., the case is clear and the murderer is right in front of us!"
