After hearing Jiang Dong's words, Zhu Lei thought about it and asked again: "Can the demons survive without eating human souls?"
"No, there are many ways to practice, but by sucking human souls, it will improve much faster. Once they experience the effects of this method, they will no longer be able to control themselves and continue to suck, as if they are addicted to drugs!"
"Oh, that's it!" Zhu Lei understood the purpose of the demon's crime, but he still didn't understand Jiang Dong's arrangement: "Since we are not sure where the demon will commit the crime, how can we catch him?"
Jiangdong replied: "We don't have to catch it at the crime scene. According to the method of control I expected, as long as the demon enters the city according to the previous route, I will receive a signal of it passing by and then squat here until it finishes the crime."
Zhu Lei didn't understand what Jiang Dong said, specifically whether to use cameras to monitor or to reliably assign personnel to monitor each line? He looked at Jiang Dong in confusion.
Jiangdong was not in a hurry to announce the answer. He said confidently: "As long as we do not carry out large-scale operations, the demon will come out to commit the crime soon, so we have to wait for another two days."
"Wouldn't it be that two more people would die?"
Jiang Dong sighed and said, "There is no way, now this is all we can do. But don't disclose this plan to anyone for now, only the two of us know it!"
"Why?"
"I'm afraid things will not be as simple as we imagined! In short, it's better to be cautious!" Jiang Dong didn't know why he thought this way. He felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he was always afraid of some mistakes. Anyway, he always felt this way after he came to the provincial capital.
"Then, what are we doing now?"
Jiang Dong thought about it and couldn't tell what his anxiety was for. He replied casually: "Wait! Wait for the demon to do another case!"
"Oh, then will we release the videos on the U disk?"
"Video?" Jiang Dong calmed down. To be honest, he didn't know whether it should be announced, but this matter cannot be concealed, right? If it is announced, it will cause panic among citizens? This is really a difficult problem! "Well, you can reveal it with the director first, discuss it, listen to the opinions above. The matter is too bizarre and not just us can control it. But try not to let the director leak it to the citizens through the media, and wait until we catch the demon before we talk about it!"
Zhu Lei stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go and find the director now!"
After Zhu Lei left, Jiang Dong leaned silently on the chair and looked at the map in front of him. He didn't know if things would develop smoothly as he imagined, nor did he know whether he could catch the demon, nor even know how strong this demon was, could he beat him?
However, one thing that Jiangdong can be sure of is that demons will not change their habit of gluttony. If there is really a demon no longer moved by human souls, then it is not a demon.
Therefore, this demon who has committed crimes repeatedly must have left their organization, or is a demon who is not in the demon organization at all, because the demon god or the demon king will not let a demon act like this without authorization. All their actions have careful plans and arrangements. They are very afraid that their plans will be exposed and thus attract the attention of monks in the world, so they will not show up like this boldly until the last moment.
This is much easier to deal with. Since there is no intervention of the demon god and its minions, Jiangdong is still very confident in dealing with an ordinary demon.
Jiangdong believes that the reason why the demon dared to commit crimes in the city must be its own reasons, or because it was in the advanced stage and needed a large amount of energy supply and could not find a human in the place where it lived, so he had the courage to break into the city; or the demon man knew nothing, and even did not know that the demon man had an organization, nor did he know that the demon gods and demon kings existed. Any action was carried out according to his own will, so he did not consider what impact and consequences his actions would have on society and the demon king's organization; or the demon man had left the demon king's underground organization and deliberately exposed himself to the world. Does they have any special purpose?
Jiangdong tried every possible thing, but he never got an explanation that could convince him. At present, he could only take one step at a time and catch the demon who harmed others first. If this is really a conspiracy of the demon god, then Jiangdong will be in trouble.
In the last two battles with the Demon God, Jiangdong was no match for them at all. He destroyed the two Demon Gods entirely by luck and opportunity. I wonder if he could still be so lucky next time he met the Demon God. If not, could he run away under the Demon God's claws? Jiangdong thought.
"Dongdongdongdongdong!" A knock on the door sounded, Jiang Dong came back from his thoughts and said, "Please come in!"
Liu Wei stood out from behind the door: "Brother Dong, the director asked you to come over, Team Zhu is there too!"
Jiang Dong was so fascinated that he didn't hear Liu Wei's high heels: "Oh, I understand!" After that, Jiang Dong picked up the cup and drank a few sips of water.
Liu Wei is responsible for some front desk receptions and other trivial matters in the bureau. She is equivalent to a communicator in the army. She knows all the big and small things in the bureau, and everyone in the bureau knows her. "Brother Dong, I saw that the leaders of the bureau are all heading to the office, and there are also working groups from the province. Should we take big actions?"
"It shouldn't be?" Jiang Dong put down his cup and said, "Jiu Lei just took the video of the deceased's mobile phone to the director to see. He should be studying how to deal with the murderer!"
When Liu Wei heard Jiang Dong say this, she immediately became interested and asked curiously: "Brother Dong, what is recorded in the video? Is it the murderer? What does the murderer look like?"
Jiangdong stood up and walked out and said, "I advise you not to ask, I'm afraid I'll scare you to death when I say it!"
Liu Wei leaned against the door and let Jiang Dong go over, muttering to Jiang Dong's back: "Isn't it just a murderer? Isn't it that scary?"
In the conference room of the Municipal Bureau, the main leaders, the director and the political commissar sat in the middle, all with serious and anxious expressions, because they had seen the videos brought by Zhu Lei just now and knew that the murderer was not a human business at all, and they were looking for a solution.
"Report!" Jiang Dong knocked at the door and shouted. In the past, he always shouted for reports when entering the door in the army.
"Come in!" someone inside replied.
Jiang Dong gently pushed open the door and saw the situation inside clearly at a glance. He saluted everyone steadily, and then sat next to Zhu Lei calmly.
"Jiangdong, what have you done in the past few years since you returned from the town?" The director met Jiangdong as early as the last time he wiped out Ding Hao's gang, and this time it was the second time he met.
Jiang Dong looked at the director and said, "I didn't do anything. I learned some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and went around the country."
The director asked kindly: "Are you not planning to join our police force? You are all selected from thousands of skills! And you are a veteran, a party member, with strong thoughts, good style, and capable! Isn't it a pity not to serve the country and the people?"
"Director, I have my own ideals and goals, and I have also done a lot of things to protect the people in secret. I think there is a job that is more suitable for me than the profession of police! Don't worry, I won't watch bad people do evil!"
"Yes!" the director nodded and then asked: "This time we have invited you to handle this case as the right person! As you said, the murderer is the demon you mentioned! Please give you a detailed introduction!"
"Yes!" Jiang Dong stood up and explained slowly to all the leaders present.
Jiangdong explained the characteristics and lifestyle of the demons, as well as their cruel practice methods, without telling the story of the demon king, for fear that everyone would not accept so many facts at once. Besides, the fact that the demon king's affairs had nothing to do with the current case, so basically they didn't need to know.
"Then, do you have a way to catch the demon?" The director quietly listened to Jiang Dong's words and continued to ask.
Jiang Dong lowered his head and thought for a while, and answered cautiously: "Yes! But it will take some time, because we have never even seen the shadow of the demon. Just looking at it on the computer, finding its hiding place in the entire Xiangyang City is probably like looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, the demon is good at changing its appearance characteristics, which increases the difficulty of our detection! Therefore, I can't guarantee when I will catch it now!"
After hearing Jiang Dong's words, the director said to him: "Okay! As long as you can catch it, the faster the better! This case is the biggest trouble now. If you have any needs, just apply to the bureau. We will definitely try our best to satisfy you. Don't have any worries!"
"Thank you, Director!" Jiang Dong said politely.
"Hey~ we have to thank you!" said the director with a smile, "When the day the case is solved, I will personally thank you on behalf of the people of the city, and also award you a first-class medal of merit!"
When Zhu Lei heard the director's words, he secretly beat Jiangdong under the table, and was secretly happy for him!
On the first night, the soft moonlight shone on the branches of the big tree that had already fallen off the leaves. The treetops swayed gently with the breeze, trembling as if they could not withstand the arrival of the cold.
In the quiet primeval forest southwest of Xiangyang City, a pair of red eyes flashed and rushed towards the brightly lit city. Widths of black air quietly dispersed wherever they passed!
Jiangdong came out of the conference room and asked Zhu Lei to drive out together. He started to arrange it according to the signs on the map.
