Chapter 329: Tracking for a monthly pass) 4300 words
SHIELD is indeed very efficient. After arriving in Chicago, it only took them three hours to find Maria, who had been missing for a week, from such a large city with a permanent population of 2.7 million. In a heavy metal
In the basement of the nightclub.
But they weren't fast enough, because when they found her, Maria had just lost her life. And the way she died was very... Kai didn't know how to describe it. Creative? That seemed disrespectful to the dead, cruel? Indeed, it was not enough.
comprehensive.
The murderer wanted to humiliate Maria! Let her die in the most painful and humiliating way!
She died of internal hemorrhage. The murderer kidnapped a man specifically for this purpose, and then put a leather sheath with a sharp blade on his brother. Then he let the poor man lie on the bed and killed him using the most primitive human reproduction gesture.
she.
When Kai and the others found the scene of the crime, the man was close to collapse. His lower body was covered with blood, his face was pale, and his body was shaking constantly. It is conservatively estimated that this guy will not be able to have a formal relationship between a man and a woman in his next life.
But that's not the point, the point is Maria.
Her death was so painful that when she died, her face was extremely hideous and terrifying. Her hands and feet were tied to a simple spring bed, and she died in a very unbearable posture. Kai saw Maria's face
The body suddenly felt weak. He walked to Maria's side, slowly knelt on one knee beside the bed, and gently closed Maria's eyes.
He was still one step late.
What made him even more helpless was that he didn't know how to explain the current situation to Susie!
Seeing that Kai was depressed, Phil came over and gently patted Kai's shoulder to express comfort.
Kai was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I'm going to kill that bastard!"
"Calm down, Kai. We will catch him. Just leave everything to us, we will catch him!" Phil obviously felt that Kai was in a very bad mood, so he said quickly. He even emphasized twice that their S.H.I.E.L.D.
will catch him.
"No, I will kill him! I will!" At this time, Kai's mood returned to calm. He was not familiar with Phil, and he did not like to show his emotions in front of outsiders.
Phil also planned to persuade Kai again to give up this extreme idea. Killing...especially killing in a society ruled by law is a very troublesome thing. Of course, this is not the key. SHIELD is not a charity.
Murder is so common. Let's put it this way. S.H.I.E.L.D. has basically done all the crimes written in the U.S. Criminal Code, and it has done a lot. Although S.H.I.E.L.D. claims to be just an intelligence organization, what about the CIA?
It's an intelligence organization!
Could it be that the CIA has done less evil? What about S.H.I.E.L.D., which is more awesome than the CIA? It can only be dirtier than the CIA!
After all, the CIA is supervised by the US government. Who supervises S.H.I.E.L.D.? The answer is that no one supervises it. Even though their superior is the World Security Council, in fact... even the Council itself knows that it has no control over S.H.I.E.L.D.
Bureau.
Just like now, when Phil heard the news about the murderer, he came immediately. Is he really trying to do justice and do justice?
Of course not! SHIELD is an organization that deals with abnormal events and is not responsible for social security! Their real purpose is to catch this murderer and then study him! Recruit him!
That’s right, recruitment!
In a sense, S.H.I.E.L.D.’s position is similar to that of Karma Taj. They don’t care about individual tragedies, they care about the overall situation! Of course, the sentiments of the two are completely different. Karma Taj is a perfect justice.
Organization template, and SHIELD exists in the human world. They do maintain peace, but their methods are much more disgusting. In a sense, there is nothing wrong with saying they are villains.
This is not a purely derogatory connotation. Large institutions like the FBI and CIA are also like this. But no one denies that they are necessary to stabilize the entire United States.
Closer to home, in short, SHIELD has its own demands. They are not willing to lose such a rare mutant. This is determined by the positioning of their organization.
So Phil planned to persuade Kai that if possible, he didn't want to have a conflict with such an upright policeman, because it would make him feel like a bad guy.
But before Phil could speak, a phone call interrupted their communication.
Just now the safe house was attacked.
But there were not many casualties. All the police and security guards were just stunned. But the problem is that four women are missing.
Tracey, Pepper, Alexandra and Susie!
…
Kai looked at the irritable Mills and felt uneasy in his heart.
This attack was carried out by the Seven Deadly Sins murderer. The key is that he left a note at the scene. He clearly told Mills that he wanted to end it all!
It's just that this is completely different from the murderer's previous behavior pattern. According to the previous methods he used to kill the victims, they were carefully planned. Based on what the victims did, he prepared the most suitable crime for the victims, and then based on
The crime is designed with the punishment that best suits the crime!
He regards this series of cases as his masterpiece! Since it is a masterpiece, of course it cannot be so simple and crude! He did not plan carefully, but rushed into the police encirclement and captured the target.
This is not his style. If he goes according to his original idea, he should be tricking the police around. He wants to defeat the police. Defeat the police thoroughly, let the police follow the clues he left, and then find the place.
Corpse!
This is his masterpiece!
In fact, after finding out how the murderer chose his targets, Kai discovered that what the murderer hated most was not the targets related to that case, but the entire police and judicial system! Even the entire society!
From the initial provocation, setting up puzzles, to always being one step ahead of the police, it was all for this purpose!
He wants to tell everyone about the incompetence of the police!
At the same time, he sets a crime for each victim, which also has a more profound purpose. He is preaching and admonishing everyone! He is educating the entire society!
But what he was doing was obviously not what he wanted.
Doing so will only make people think that he is a thug, and thugs cannot become saints, let alone educate and admonish others.
Something must have changed the murderer, making him unable to wait any longer!
Thinking of this, Kai immediately returned to the four women's room and rummaged around. He even made a mess. The other police officers saw that he had made such a mess and wanted to stop him. After all, this was a crime scene.
It's a pity that none of them have the courage.
Kai went from room to room, and the police began to understand what Kai was looking for.
cell phone!
Four women’s cell phones!
They are all witnesses. Although the police have regulations that all communication equipment needs to be confiscated after entering the safe house, the problem is that these four women are not ordinary people, especially Pepper and Alexandra. They are both celebrities.
, there were too many calls to receive and make, and it was impossible for the police to confiscate their mobile phones. So they simply confiscated no one’s mobile phone.
In the end, Kay only found the cell phone in Tracy's room, but none of the other three women's cell phones were found.
"If they have cell phones, can you use your expensive system to find their location?" Kay asked Phil.
Phil was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at his technician.
The technicians were very excited!
"Of course! As long as their mobile phones are not turned off! I can locate them through the signal!"
"No need to call?"
"Of course not! What do you think the Skynet system is? It's a masterpiece!" The technician was very unhappy that Kai raised such a stupid question.
"Okay, your masterpiece can start working!" Kai nodded. The previous Skynet system really impressed Kai deeply. Well, except for the expensive price and the poor quality.
Now it was the SHIELD technician's turn to be speechless.
"Uh... there's a small problem... we don't have the main unit anymore."
"Then think of a solution immediately, I don't have 100 million to give you!"
Phil's face turned dark immediately. This broken system was so screwed up that it was completely shut down after running for more than ten seconds. Even SHIELD couldn't withstand such trouble.
"Hmm... I remember there is a supercomputer at the University of Illinois. We can borrow it."
Phil hesitated for a moment. He didn't know much about super calculators, but he knew that this thing must be very expensive! If it goes wrong, then SHIELD will not only have to bear their share of losses, but also compensate the University of Illinois...
…
Perhaps sensing his superior's concerns, the technician immediately proposed a feasible plan.
"We can make some adjustments, such as turning off most functions and leaving only the ability to track information. That should not cause structural damage to the Chicago supercomputer."
"Then do it! How long will it take?" When he heard that the abridged version was available, Phil immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Two hours! We are professionals!"
"Okay, we'll leave in two hours!" Kai nodded, turned around and walked out.
Phil was stunned for a moment and immediately chased after him: "Where are you going?"
"Eat!" Kai hadn't eaten for a whole day because of this case.
"Wait for me, I'll come too!"
…
About an hour later, Kai finally found a chance to go to the toilet during Phil's chatter. But Phil felt a little strange. He didn't know why, but he always felt that Kai had gone to the toilet, and his whole body felt relaxed.
Quite a few.
Maybe he is constipated?
While Phil was thinking about all this, he continued to preach to Kai.
This guy kept telling Kai how important SHIELD was, how many things he had done for world peace, and how much he had sacrificed for it. In short, he wanted to brainwash Kai and let him join the SHIELD family.
.
But Kai was always like that from the beginning, with things going in one ear and out the other.
But Phil never tires of it. He is not fooling Kai, but really feels that his work has extraordinary significance. He hopes that more capable people will join SHIELD so that SHIELD can better serve the world.
contribute.
There are really not many employees who are so dedicated and dedicated to their jobs.
But Phil didn't know that Kai's relief was not because he had released his old constipation, but because he finally found the opportunity to use his clone!
Kai asked Phil to use the Skynet system before, which was completely a cover-up. He thought at the time that he really couldn't track the murderer. Or rather, the hounds couldn't track the murderer, but now that the four women were caught, he could definitely
Go track them!
But he didn't expect Phil to be so difficult to deal with. It seems that this guy is suspicious of Kai, or in other words, he is preventing Kai from really killing the mutant murderer!
It's a pity that Phil's actions were in vain.
…
Chicago is so colorful at night, even more exciting than during the day. Countless lights make the city look colorful, and countless fashionably dressed men and women enjoy the bustle and bustle here.
Chicago is known as the most American city, which integrates the cultural and culinary landscapes left over from the Midwest and the world. The famous American writer Norman Mailer once wrote: "Chicago is a great city, it may be
America’s last great remaining city.”
But no matter how gorgeous or prosperous the city is, there are still places where lights can’t shine. For example, the Calumet Industrial Area in the south of the city was once the pride of Chicago. Most of Chicago’s heavy industries are located in this area. Chicago’s industry and manufacturing industry are very
It is a pillar industry of its economy, accounting for about 60% of the city's total output value.
But later, with the development of the city, many large enterprises began to move out of here and went to the satellite city of Gary for reasons such as environmental protection and labor. Although today, the Calumet Industrial Zone can still create a lot of wealth, but
What remains are those large enterprises. After industrial upgrading, these enterprises no longer need to hire so many workers. Therefore, although the entire industrial zone can still create a lot of wealth, in fact, the entire industrial zone seems to be quite depressed.
A large number of abandoned factories and buildings have made this place a gathering place for drug addicts and homeless people. The security at night is very poor.
Among these abandoned buildings, on the top of a dark building, Joe was struggling to move a set of homemade equipment. If there are movie lovers here, they will immediately find that this thing will be very familiar - a jaw splitter.
This is a metal device placed on the human head. The metal piece is inserted between the upper and lower jaws. If it is not released within the specified time, the spring energy storage mechanism will collapse, tearing open the upper and lower jaws of the person, and tearing the entire head apart.
Cut in half, killed with one blow, no way to survive.
This device looks more complicated and heavier than the one in the movie. But even so, with this size, even if it is made of all steel, a normal man should not be so strenuous.
Finally, with a heavy gasp, Joe finally placed the jaw splitter on Alexandra's head.
"Uh-huh..." As soon as the device was installed on Alexandra's head, before he could insert the two metal pieces into her mouth, Joe suddenly hugged his head, and the muscles on his face became extremely ferocious.
There was blood flowing out between the mouth and nose.
He seemed to be in great pain, until he tremblingly took out a jar of medicine from his coat pocket and poured it into his mouth for free, finally managing to stop the severe pain.
Alexandra and Pepper both looked at the man in front of them in fear.
The man in front of them does not look scary. On the contrary, it can be said that he is gentle. He is not handsome, but he is not ugly either. To be honest, his appearance is slightly feminine. If they saw him normally, they might think that he is
Someone like a librarian or designer.
But they knew that the person in front of them was the serial killer!
They were captured by his own hands.
Seeing several women paying attention to him, Qiao raised his head and carefully wiped away the blood stains on his face and around his nose with his handkerchief.
"I'm sorry for scaring you." Then she looked at Alessandra and said seriously: "Especially you, Ms. Ambrosio, I didn't want to use this method, but... my time
