Madness of the Heart

Dongye City, Ge Zhong Town.

Old man Tan's little grandson, whom the old man's family disliked even as a dog, ran away again, and old man Tan went from house to house without finding anyone. He left the town and walked for a kilometer on the deserted road, only to see his little grandson running back with a face.

Tan the old man worked as a policeman at the police station before retiring, and he knew something was wrong when he saw the stains on his little grandson.It wasn't mud and moss, it looked like blood.

"Where did you get these things?" Old Man Tan asked.

The little grandson pointed back, not afraid, "Grandpa, there is a dead monster under the shed over there."

monster?What kind of monsters are there now?

The old man Tan was startled, and when he saw the blood on his little grandson, he felt bad, so he hurriedly called the police station.

The south of Gezhong Town is a piece of wasteland. Because it is next to the mountain, the geomantic omen is good. A few years ago, a developer came to build a resort, but it ended up being unfinished, and no one cares about it.In summer, some townspeople felt that it was cool in the unfinished resort, so they went to build a pergola, which was regarded as a free vacation.In other seasons, the pergola is empty and no one goes there.There are children who occasionally "adventure" in the past, but they are very few.

Several homicides occurred one after another in the main city of Dongye City. The Gezhong Town Police Station did not dare to be sloppy. After receiving a call from Old Man Tan, they immediately sent their team over.

The resort is like a ruin, with half-person-high weeds growing everywhere, and the pergola built by the townspeople last year has almost collapsed, making it look very dilapidated.

Following the clue of the old man's little grandson, the policemen entered the unfinished main building and walked to the basement, and they really smelled a pungent stench.As soon as the searchlight was turned on, a pool in the distance was gushing thinned blood.

There is a shapeless figure in the pool.

The police who rushed to check only took one look and vomited.The corpse was already swollen under the soaking in the water, its face was extremely terrifying, and its body exuded a strong stench. No wonder the child would mistake it for a dead monster.

It's not that Ge Zhongzhen has never had a murder case, but none of the policemen present has ever dealt with such a horrific murder case.

Let's talk about the old man's composure. When he saw the corpse and the scene, he knew that it was definitely not a case that could be solved easily. It is suggested that the police station should report the case immediately without wasting time.

"The deceased was male, and his face was damaged by a sharp weapon. He couldn't tell his identity from his appearance." Xing Mu squatted beside the corpse, his latex-gloved hands carefully touching various parts of the corpse. Organs, all have life reactions. Both wrists, leg arteries, and carotid arteries were cut open. I preliminarily judged that he died of excessive blood loss. The three abdominal injuries appeared earlier than other injuries, and there were repeated There are signs of being cut open, hands and legs have been bound for a long time, the body has bruises from being hit by blunt objects, and..."

Xing Mu paused, and turned the corpse slowly, "There are also electric shock injuries. Team Yi, I am afraid that the murderer tortured the victim for a long time before killing him. This case is not simple."

Yi Fei frowned, "What about the time of death?"

Xing Mu said: "The water damaged the body to a certain extent, so it is not easy to judge the exact time of death. I generally think that he was killed three days ago. The conditions of the police station here are limited, so I will take the body to the funeral parlor first. An autopsy. It may be a little troublesome to check the identity from the fingerprints, the skin on his hands is severely damaged, it depends on whether the DNA comparison can determine the source of the corpse."

After listening to Xing Mu's preliminary autopsy results, Yi Fei looked towards the pool, where there was a steel frame.As soon as he saw it, Yi Fei remembered the steel frame that stabbed Lai Xiuliang to death.

However, the environment here is much different from the tool room on the cobblestone.The water seepage is serious here, it is very humid, not even one part of the wall is dry, and there is water on the ground, and clues such as footprints cannot be preserved.

Yi Fei looked up along the steel frame, and faintly found hooks as thick as two fingers of six adults on the dark ceiling.

"There are bloodstains on the steel frame." Xiao Man got down from the frame, his gloves were covered with rust, "but the corpse has no trace of being pierced by steel bars, which is different from Lai Xiuliang."

"The victim was tied up and abused during his lifetime, and blood stains appeared on the steel frame." Yi Fei said: "The murderer probably tied him to a hook on the ceiling, and there was a steel frame underneath, so the blood flowing from his abdomen was fell on the steel frame."

Xiao Man was puzzled: "What kind of death ritual is this? First tie it to bleed, then throw it into the pool and cut off the carotid artery? Why is it like witchcraft?"

"Witchcraft?" Yi Fei looked around, "If it's witchcraft, you should pay more attention to the surrounding environment."

Xiao Man climbed up the steel frame again, looking for fingerprints on the hook.

"Have you found it?" Xiao Man asked.

"There are no fingerprints, but the bend is very clean, and there are dirt on the rest." Xiao Man said: "Captain Yi, you are right, the victim was indeed hung under the hook, and the dirt that should have been on the hook was wiped off by the rope. But I haven't found the rope yet."

"The victim is over 1 meters tall, and it took a lot of work for the murderer to tie him up." Yi Fei said, "Isn't this more difficult than throwing Lai Xiuliang onto the steel frame?"

Xiao Man nodded, "The murderer chose this basement because of the water everywhere. The water helped him hide his traces."

"Water can also cause panic to the victim." Yi Fei said.

Xiao Man said: "Then this is not only physical abuse, but also psychological devastation. The murderer hates the victim to the bone."

"Hate to the bone..." Yi Fei said: "The cases we have encountered these days are all hate to the bone."

The victim's samples were quickly sent to the Municipal Bureau for DNA comparison in the system.Site investigations and autopsies are also underway.

There are very few traces left in the basement, but it is likely that there are clues left by the murderer and the victim throughout the resort.

Suddenly, a team member shouted loudly from a villa: "Team Yi! Come here! I found something!"

Yi Fei strode over and smelled a familiar smell as soon as he entered the villa.

In the villa 200 meters away from the main building, there is actually a dead body!

The villa has not been fully completed, and the interior is full of concrete walls, concrete floors, and metal railings. In the absence of lighting, the whole building is very gloomy.

A female corpse was placed horizontally in a small room at the west end of the second floor. The state of decay was much worse than that of the male corpse in the basement. It was obvious that she had been dead for a long time, and it was difficult to determine the cause of death at first glance.

The sudden appearance of two corpses in the same resort is no small matter.Yi Fei looked solemn, and after reporting to Xiao Yu'an on the phone, he continued to check in the villa.

For a moment, he even felt that if he continued to search, he might find more corpses.

Unlike the basement, there are many traces preserved in the villa.But when Xiao Man extracted a set of footprints, he was suddenly stunned.

"What?" Yi Fei asked.

Xiao Man's eyelids twitched, and he said after a long time: "During the last meeting, didn't Xiao Ming say that Cao Zhiya might be a member of the 'third party'?"

Yi Fei immediately realized, "The dead person above is Cao Zhiya?"

Xiao Man swallowed and calmed down: "The deceased is probably Cao Zhiya! Look, the footprints I collected are exactly the same as the mud footprints that Fang Yuanhang brought back from country E! Even the shoe prints are the same!"

Xing Mu was the only forensic doctor who rushed to Gezhong Town. Xing Mu was dissecting a victim and couldn't find time to look at the corpse.

Yi Fei's vest was sweating, "Why did Cao Zhiya die here?"

Xiao Man shook his head, "I don't know. The trouble is, the reference is only mud footprints. She left fingerprints in the 'Ninth Battlefield', but the body rotted, and the fingerprints could not be compared. Her DNA information has not entered the system, a while ago Team Ming and I went to her house, but we couldn't find any samples that could extract DNA information!"

"Don't worry." Yi Fei quickly calmed down, "Check all the metal railings in the villa, maybe there are fingerprints left."

Xiao Man had already thought of other things, "If the deceased is sure to be Cao Zhiya, then the male corpse in the basement..."

At this moment, the city bureau inspection center sent news that the identity of the male corpse in the basement was confirmed, and it was He Yang who had disappeared earlier!

"What?" Ming Shu was still in Xiangshan City, and when he received a call from Xiao Yu'an, his mind short-circuited for a moment, "The bodies of He Yang and Cao Zhiya were found?"

Xiao Yu'an had just presided over the case analysis meeting of the serious crime team, holding a stack of autopsy reports and trace inspection reports in his hand.

It was difficult to confirm the identity of the second corpse, but Xiao Man extracted the fingerprints of the deceased on the metal railing of the villa, and compared them with the fingerprints left by Cao Zhiya in the "Ninth Battlefield", and confirmed that the deceased was Cao Cao. Chi Ya.

Xiao Yu'an said: "Yes, He Yang and Cao Zhiya were found dead in the Unfinished Resort in Gezhong Town. He Yang died three days ago and was tortured for a long time before his death. The toxicology test showed that he was injected with Too much morphine."

"Being abused and being injected with morphine? This is very contradictory!" Ming Shu said: "The murderer wants He Yang to feel pain, but morphine has an analgesic effect."

Xiao Yuan said: "But morphine also has hallucinogenic effects. The murderer's abuse of He Yang is not limited to the body, but also the spirit. I will send you the pictures of the scene in a while. Xing Mu confirmed that he died of excessive blood loss, but he died of severe blood loss. Before, the murderer made three big holes in his abdomen, from which blood flowed out continuously, during this period of time, he was tied to the ceiling with sharp steel bars underneath."

"Isn't that very similar to Lai Xiuliang's death?" Ming Shu said, "The murderer is simulating Lai Xiuliang's death scene?"

"So our deduction was close to the truth." Xiao Yu'an said: "Lai Xiuliang's death is related to He Yang and also to the Avengers. He is probably a different kind of bug prepared by the Avengers for He Yang. But who killed Lai Xiuliang? He Yang Did Yang make a move? It is still a mystery for the time being. The Avengers seduced He Yang from shallow to deep, and finally pulled him into this game completely."

Mingshu asked, "What about Cao Zhi?"

Xiao Yu'an said: "Cao Zhiya died half a month ago, when He Yang had disappeared. Judging from the blood and other traces, the place where Yi Fei found the body was the scene of the murder. There are only two sets of footprints in the villa. One group belongs to Cao Zhiya, and the other belongs to He Yang."

Ming Shu leaned against the table, "Then Cao Zhi was killed by He Yang?"

"From the analysis of the scene, it is like this." Xiao Yu'an continued: "The footprints on the first floor are very chaotic, and the action modeling shows that they had a fierce fight on the first floor. There are some old scars on He Yang's arms and back. According to the time It was deduced that it should have been caused during the fight with Cao Zhiya. After getting rid of He Yang for a short time, Cao Zhiya rushed to the second floor, and her fingerprints were left on the metal railing at this time. He Yang's fingerprints were also left behind. Two There are Cao Zhiya's footprints on the window of the building, she seems to want to jump out of the window, but He Yang attacked her brain from behind, the murder weapon has been found, it is a brick that can be seen everywhere in the villa."

Mingshu closed his eyes, and described the situation at that time in his mind.

In an unfinished villa, two people chased wildly while the other tried to escape.How similar is this to those games designed by He Yang and Yin Zhen?

The villa is a cage, and the ones fighting inside are bugs, and someone is watching them fight outside?

He Yang used to be a spectator of the worms killing each other, but now he has finally become a member of the worms?

Xiao Yu'an said again: "The injury to the back of the head was not fatal, but Cao Zhiya lost the ability to resist because of it. Her neck was pierced by a hard field knife, and there was a lot of splattered blood at the scene."

Ming Shu suddenly thought of Liang Xiaojun who died in He Yang's game, "Liang Xiaojun fought with Xing Mao, and Xing Mao stabbed his throat with a knife in the end!"

Xiao Yu'an's breathing came from the receiver, Ming Shu seemed to have caught something, and his heart beat faster and faster.

"For so many years, He Yang has always trusted Zhou Shan. Before and after the Spring Festival, he suddenly abandoned his loyal secretary, no longer interested in the games Zhou Shan prepared for him, and said, 'I found a more interesting game' "Xiao Yuan said slowly: "When I saw Cao Zhiya's death, I roughly figured out what 'more interesting games' refers to."

Mingshu said: "Three years ago, I watched a worm be killed. Three years later, in the same way that worm was killed, I personally killed the most important person in the worm's heart! To He Yang, he still controls With everything, he can make a person still restless after death! He longs for this kind of psychological pleasure and novelty!"

"Maybe more than that." Xiao Yu'an said, "He needs greater psychological pleasure."

"Greater psychological pleasure?"

"Just imagine, when He Yang knew that Cao Zhiya was an avenger."

A light hit Mingshu's mind, illuminating those filthy sins wherever he went.

"The 'Ninth Battlefield' was designed by Xi Chuan Suzumi in name. It is bloody and cruel, and it will definitely attract He Yang's attention." Mingshu said while stroking countless clues, "He Yang didn't know the truth about Xichuan Suzumi at first. Identity, after investigation, it was found that she was a very interesting woman, and Xichuan Lingmei also took the initiative to approach, something should have happened during this time, which made He Yang more interested in Xichuan Lingmei. Soon, he discovered that, or someone asked him to It turns out that Xi Chuan Suzumi has another conspiracy to approach him—this woman even has a false identity, and everything she did before was for..."

Xiao Yu'an said, "Avenge the dead Liang Xiaojun."

Mingshu clenched his fists tightly, and then let go, with sweat dripping from his forehead.

Xiao Yu'an said: "After learning that Xichuan Lingmei's real identity is Liang Xiaojun's prospective girlfriend Cao Zhiya, from He Yang's point of view, he must not feel afraid. Zhou Shan said that they are not afraid of the insect's revenge at all. He will I found it very interesting, and even more interesting, to kill this Avenger with my own hands."

Ming Shu felt a cold current rushing through his body, "This is the real purpose of the person hiding behind the scenes to make Cao Zhiya his assistant! Cao Zhiya is his tool to gain He Yang's trust, and he prepared it for He Yang. 'fun' game!"

"Now He Yang has also been killed." Xiao Yu'an sighed, "He Yang's own footprints were found outside the basement. No matter whether he took the initiative or not, he walked into the basement by himself. The time for the footprints to reflect is between ten days to half a month. Left and right, after entering, he didn't come out again. There is another set of footprints, which are similar to the mud footprints in Cao Zhiya's house and country E, and that is the manipulator behind all of this."

Mingshu said: "He Yang was locked up in the basement for ten and a half months?"

"He was tortured by the murderer for ten and a half months." Xiao Yu'an said, "In this sense, he suffered more pain before death than Yin Zhen, Jiang Xiyang, and Yue Shuqing."

"But the murderer hates Yin Zhen the most?" Ming Shu said.

"I guess there are two possibilities. One is that this is the last case planned by the murderer, and his anger has reached its peak. The other is because of Cao Zhiya." Xiao Yuan said: "The logic of us bystanders, Cao Zhiya must have been used by the manipulator behind the scenes, but Cao Zhiya might know about it, she would sacrifice herself for revenge, and what she made to the manipulator behind the scenes is to kill He Yang in the most cruel way .”

Even Ming Shu had goosebumps all over his body at this time.

"The name Yin Zhuo has been checked by the technical team, and there is no one who fits the characteristics of an Avenger." Xiao Yu'an changed the subject, "When he came into contact with Duan Yun, he didn't use his real name."

"All the suspicions are concentrated on this person now." Ming Shu looked up at the ceiling, "He is 2 years older than Duan Yun, and he is now 30 years old. He has a deep understanding of psychology and the Internet, and he is not short of money. 23 I fell into a trough in my life around the age of [-], and it took me a few years to stand up from the trough, claiming to have been a soldier, with great skills, and I may have serious psychological problems when I met Duan Yun...Brother, we sorted out all of these Criminal profiling."

Xiao Yu'an reminded: "One more thing, he may be provoking the police in Dongye City - I took revenge and tempted people to commit crimes on your territory, but you couldn't find me. This is also a game."

Mingshu took a deep breath, "His methods always remind me of 'professional'. Could the problem be internal?"

At this moment, another phone call came in, Ming Shu glanced at it, it was from Yang Jing.

Old classmates usually wouldn't call if they had nothing serious to do, so Ming Shu told Xiao Yu'an and called Yang Jing.

There was no progress on the case in Luchuan City, and Yang Jing wanted to ask something else.

"Lulu, you are busy, I know, I also thought about it for two days before calling you." Yang Jing said: "I heard that you have introduced a mental intelligence evaluation system? It's very useful. That company was founded by our old classmate Xun Xiaoyun, and we also want to introduce one. How about you mention it to him for me?"
