[British and American Drama] The murderer is in sight

"Fingers of the right hand?" Lance repeated. "Which finger of the right hand? Or all fingers?"

Lestrade raised his eyebrows together, with a serious face, "Here..." He took Lance's folder on the table, opened it and spread it on the table, "It's the right index finger, I'm sorry." The sheriff suddenly closed the folder apologetically. He just remembered that Lance's dislike of corpses was among the topics they had just discussed, but he forgot about it as soon as it involved clues.

"The confirmed cause of death was hitting the head with a heavy object." Reid took over, "There are other identifications, but there is no sign of poisoning, and there are no obvious wounds on the body."

"Our original characterization of the case was that he was approached by someone for theft and had a quarrel, and was accidentally killed in the conflict." The sheriff explained, "But now we may need to think more, what you know is usually cut off In addition to accidents, a large proportion of people with fingers are punished for stealing."

"Oh, I know, just like gambling will have your hands chopped off, lying will have your tongue pulled out, by the way, in a certain period of time in a certain area, if you cheated during marriage, you would be locked in a cage made of bamboo. Throw it in the river and drown." Lance shrugged.

Lestrade looked blank, "Where is this, is this a custom long ago?"

"Trust me, you don't want to know." Lance sighed.

"No, I want to know, wait! Well, I don't want to know that right now, I want to know what you have to do with this case." Lestrade waved his hand wildly, "We'll prioritize homicide, but if you keep If it is not resolved, it will become an unsolved case."

"Hanging up like a secret hidden in a gem?" Lance narrowed his eyes, "We have already mentioned the clues that can be provided. To be offensive, only one person died. We can't judge more If the connection between the dead and this case is separated... the surveillance from last night is gone, so what about the one from the night before?"

"The place where the body was found was in an alley, not close to the jewelry store, and the law and order were not very good. The monitoring there was normal, but there were no useful clues." Lestrade explained, "But now there is a little There are clues, but it just makes the case more complicated."

"Could it be a coincidence?" Lance continued, his fingers curled inwards in a head-grabbing motion, "It just happened to be an unidentified man who happened to have a little affair with the owner of a high-end jewelry store or something Yes, shortly after threatening him, he was attacked for some reason, his fingers were cut off, and he died, he had nothing to do with Sapphire... what are the chances?"

".3 percent." Rhett answered.

Lestrade wrinkled his face, "How did you figure it out?"

"He just wanted to explain that the chances are very small." Lance waved his hand, "Did we just say that his index finger is missing?"

"Then we are discussing where and what might lead to such an outcome, or punishment."

"Yes, did you find his finger?" Lance nodded. "Perhaps his finger revealed some important information. The murderer cut it off to prevent us from knowing."

"I have already searched the place where the crime happened. I found that the broken finger was real. I searched carefully nearby." Lestrade folded his hands and looked deeply. "So, the murderer took it away."

Some kind of bad prediction suddenly appeared in Lance's mind. It seems that there has been no such case of "eating" in the UK for such a long time, but it seems to be quite common in country a?At least I met it many times when I was in bau, the reason is unknown...

But even if there is such a conjecture, Lance will not say so. In addition to the obviously unnecessary autopsy, the autopsy will check the trauma, the fatal wounds of the deceased, and the mouth, tongue and throat. If it is forced to swallow as he guessed There should be obvious lacerations in the throat if the fingers are lowered.

Although there is no autopsy report, since Rhett did not make such a conjecture, it means that there is no such wound, and it is not very useful to say it.

Without the key information he wanted, Lestrade was also very distressed, but at this time Sherlock is resting and can't disturb him, who knows if this little boy of the British government will jump out of bed when he hears such a case Get up, and then bypass everyone and do something dangerous on your own.

He always does.

"Then..." The distressed sheriff rubbed his brows, "What about the case of missing children?"

Lance is not very good at cases of missing children. In his mind, cases involving children are second only to bloody serial murders. The murders were because he already knew the murderer's information but had to follow the procedure step by step. , child case because most of the time his abilities don't seem to help.

Rhett didn't know what Lance was thinking, but the way he frowned knew that he must not be relaxed.

"Are you going to follow up this case yourself?" Rhett said quickly, and Lestrade turned to him too fast.

"Actually, there are quite a few cases that I really need to follow up. I can't take care of many cases by myself. I will let Sally follow up on this case." Lestrade sighed, "Every time I encounter a big case, I Everyone will feel that I have too few people.”

Reid pursed his lips, then sat up straight and brought over the case file on the missing child case on the table, opened a page and slid quickly with his finger sticking to the words printed on the white paper, then turned another sheet of paper, just After more than a minute, the file was finished and handed to Lance.

Lance turned his face to Rhett and glanced at him, "You didn't turn over that case so fast just now."

Rhett shrugged.

"So what can happen?" Lestrade raised his eyebrows.

"Hey, the abducted children are all five years old, boys, from rich families and well-educated." Rhett looked into Lestrade's eyes, "Children of this age are usually accompanied by adults. The locations are also in the community where they are located, and the range is also in the city of London."

Lance also nodded, "So, Kei can be sure that the same or the same group of people committed the crime, and it is correct to call it a 'serial'. The good thing is that the body of the child who disappeared at the beginning did not seem to be found. The chances of survival are very high."

"In the dossier, it is also written that the parents of the missing child said that they did not answer the blackmail call or other information, indicating that it can be considered that the purpose of abducting the child is not for money, but the frequency of the suspect abducting the child is too high, and the child's condition is not optimistic. The specific situation can only be determined after meeting the parents of the child and asking them some questions."

"What do you decide?"

Lance lowered his head and looked at the smiling little angel with a red hat in the file, "The suspect's information, his age range, education level, living environment, and mental state."

"So accurate?"

"It's just for reference. Compared to this, I think Sherlock's deduction is the most amazing thing." Lance closed the file, "So? If you can guarantee that your subordinates will not treat me and Spencer like that, Able to tolerate being told by 'outsiders'."

Lestrade raised his head with a sideways face, "You will start the investigation under my control before the special certificate you apply for from the British government is issued."

The coffee at Scotland Yard is not bad, but it’s not particularly delicious either. Holding a cup of coffee and tilting his head, holding the file in his hand, he heard the noisy sounds of police officers coming and going, as if he had returned to a certain place in country A for a moment. The police station where bau called for help.However, he did not go abroad to continue to serve the people in another country through all the hardships, but it was obviously for friendship, life and future preparations to deal with evil forces!

She is still planning to wait until the work is over, and return to country A with a different identity, and after completing the final mission with ease, she will eat and wait to die with her in her arms!

"Who would have thought that such a peaceful world would be filled with disgusting crimes." Lance narrowed his eyes slightly, and muttered a sentence of incomparable secondary school.

"" Reid didn't hear Lance's words clearly.

"Nothing." Lance shook his head.

Lestrade understood quite clearly. The sheriff of Scotland Yard glanced at the coffee next to the file, "So there has been 'police' since the beginning of society."

It is not known whether there was a "policeman" Lance at the beginning of society, but there must have been a "criminal" defined by later generations.
