Chapter 2 - The Sin of Gluttony (2)(1/2)
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a knock on the office door, and Da Binzi, who had just left, came back.
"Captain, the director wants you to go to the office!"
"knew!"
Director Ding was sitting on the sofa in the office. He picked up the teapot and was about to get himself a cup of tea when he saw Bai Hongwei push open the door and enter.
"I said, can't you remember to knock on the door in the future? You can't change this problem since you were an intern!"
Bai Hongwei smiled sheepishly and sat opposite Director Ding.
"Director, what do you want from me?"
Bai Hongwei said as he picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip. Director Ding sighed and reluctantly picked up the file bag on the sofa.
"Bai Hongwei, the two cases that happened today have become hot searches on the Internet. Internet celebrities and celebrities are discussing the case crazily. Those Internet celebrities who are quick have gone to live broadcast around the crime scene!"
After speaking, Director Ding directly threw the file bag in his hand at Bai Hongwei's face. Bai Hongwei opened the file bag and looked at the contents inside and asked with some doubts.
"Why are these all printed?"
"I don't know how to use those bullshit software, I can only take screenshots!"
Bai Hongwei blocked the information thrown by Director Ding while looking at the documents in his hand.
"What's going on? Why did the news spread to the Internet so quickly?"
"You ask me? I still have to ask you!"
Director Ding threw the remaining information in his hand on the table. Bai Hongwei saw that Director Ding was really angry and said quickly.
"Director, I know that I will definitely work hard to solve this case! Don't worry, I can solve this case in a week at most!"
Director Ding sighed, looked at Bai Hongwei and said.
"I really want to believe you, but two identical cases happened at the same time in one day, and we are all under great pressure. If these cases continue to ferment online, there is no telling what the consequences will be. So, I
You found an expert."
"expert?"
Seeing Bai Hongwei's confused look, Director Ding could only continue to explain.
"I used to have a student at the Public Security University. He was extremely talented in criminal psychology, and he is now a criminal psychology teacher at the Public Security University. I think if he could help you with this case..."
"Director, are you talking about Chen Bai?"
Director Ding nodded and asked in surprise.
"how do you know?"
"this....."
Before Bai Hongwei finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of Director Ding's office.
"Please come in!"
"Director Ding, look for me!"
Bai Hongwei turned his head and saw Chen Bai standing at the door.
"Come on, come on, sit down quickly!"
Director Ding quickly stood up, came to Chen Bai's side and took Chen Bai's hand cordially.
"Didn't you say you only arrived this afternoon? Why are you here now? Have you eaten? I'll order takeout later?"
"Director Ding, please don't be polite. I will get to work immediately and try to solve the case as soon as possible."
Bai Hongwei stood up and said very seriously.
"Director Ding, although you are my old leader and my master, you..."
"Okay, have you forgotten the last 219 case? You couldn't find any clues last time, so you didn't rely on the help of experts in the end?"
Bai Hongwei was a little surprised, but was interrupted by Chen Bai before he could ask anything.
"Okay, okay, I'm not here to command you. I also know that solving the case is a matter for the police. I just want to catch the murderer as soon as possible. It takes three days, at most three days, to catch the murderer."
"Three days? Director Ding gives me a week..."
Chen Bai shook his head and said in a serious tone.
"You are wrong. The three days I mentioned are not the time it takes to solve the case, but the time the murderer commits his next crime. If we don't solve the case quickly, it is very likely that another person will die."
The atmosphere in the office was very depressing. Bai Hongwei took out a cigarette and lit it. The room was filled with smoke and everyone frowned and said nothing.
"Where is Kong Bingxuan? Where has she gone?"
Bai Hongwei was a little angry, but Chen Bai just smiled and said.
"Okay, let's sort out the case first!"
After Bai Hongwei's introduction, everyone also knew Chen Bai, but they didn't think Chen Bai could be of much help. But after all, the captain had said it, so they didn't say anything.
"Okay, let's sort out the information on these two cases without waiting for her."
"yes!"
Dabinzi stood up and walked to the whiteboard.
"The first case occurred in the early hours of this morning. The deceased was Liu Quan, the owner of Daquan BBQ restaurant. The deceased's death time was probably around three o'clock in the evening. The deceased was tied to a chair by the murderer, and his stomach was cut open and filled with stones.
We did not find the fingerprints or footprints of the deceased at the crime scene, and we also saw a death message - gluttony - left by the murderer on the scene using the blood of the deceased."
Chen Bai played with the lighter in his hand. When Da Binzi mentioned the death message, Chen Bai frowned.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing, keep talking!"
Da Binzi nodded and continued.
"We saw from the surveillance camera of the supermarket diagonally opposite the deceased's barbecue shop that at about three o'clock, a man wearing a raincoat came to the deceased's shop. The man left an hour later. After that, at around five o'clock, the cleaner found the deceased and reported the case.
In the second case, the deceased Zhang Dafu was the owner of a small restaurant. We received the report two hours ago. According to our preliminary on-site investigation, it seems that the deceased’s death time did not exceed an hour. The deceased and the first
The death scene of the deceased was almost the same, but the difference was that after the second deceased's stomach was cut open, the murderer stuffed sand into the deceased's stomach. The scene was in a village in the city, and was surrounded by construction sites, with a high density of people and high mobility.
We didn't find any valuable clues. And according to the reporter's confession, he didn't see anyone suspicious. In addition, we also found the same death information at the second crime scene as at the first crime scene.
——Gluttony. We investigated the social relationship between the two deceased people and found that they had no intersection. According to interviews with people around them, both of them were good-natured people who would not enmity with others."
After Da Binzi finished speaking, he looked at Chen Bai. Chen Bai raised his head and found that Bai Hongwei was also staring at him.
"You say it first or should I say it first?"
"Speak first!"
Bai Hongwei didn't know where to start for a while, but since Chen Bai asked this, he just wanted to see how Chen Bai analyzed it.
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll tell you first."
Chen Bai stood up and came to the whiteboard.
"Let me tell you the meaning of gluttony first. It means gluttony. Gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins listed by the Catholic Church. In addition to gluttony, there are also lust, arrogance, laziness, jealousy, anger, and greed. I think
The murderer leaving this word on the wall is probably a ritual. And there is a movie about the seven deadly sins, in which people who are convicted of gluttony have their stomachs cut open..."
"So what you're saying is that the murderer imitated the killing techniques in the movie and killed people?"
A voice sounded from the back of the office, and everyone turned around to find that Kong Bingxuan didn't know when he would come back, and he was still standing at the end.
"That's not what I meant. The murderer who committed crimes continuously in a short period of time cannot just imitate the movie. Since the murderer chose these two people, it proves that there must be some kind of connection between them. We need to establish a relationship between them in society.
We will continue to conduct in-depth investigations, not only to check their relationship, but also to check if they have any common friends."
Everyone nodded, but Kong Bingxuan showed a disdainful smile.
"After talking for a long time, we still have to follow our method. When you show up here like this, I thought you had some good ideas!"
Seeing Kong Bingxuan's disdainful look, Chen Bai smiled.
"Actually, if I have to say it, these two people have nothing in common."
"What is it?"
Bai Hongwei was a little anxious. Could it be that Chen Bai had already seen the relationship between the two cases?
"They are all fat, and they all own restaurants!"
"snort!"
Kong Bingxuan's sarcasm became even stronger, and Bai Hongwei didn't realize what Chen Bai meant.
"Judging from the word gluttony left by the murderer at both scenes, it seems that the murderer hated them very much. The murderer cut open their stomachs and stuffed stones and sand into their stomachs. Combined with what I said in the first case
From what I saw at the scene, I think the murderer probably used local materials."
"Are you saying that the murderer killed them on impulse?"
Bai Hongwei was a little surprised, but Chen Bai shook his head and said.
