Sick roommate observation notes

With the assistance of AI portrait software and the powerful citizen database of the Bureau of Investigation, Shen Lu quickly obtained a piece of identity information about the man who gave him cigarettes.

The man's name is Hooper Garcia, 29 years old, a freelancer, so far unmarried.He studied in Bella's School in D city next door in elementary and middle school, and studied in the oil painting department of the largest art academy in M ​​city. After graduating from graduate school, he did not return to his hometown in P province, but settled in the suburbs of M city. Signing up to work for any company makes one wonder where his daily expenses come from.

"Psychedelics are generally only used in medical treatment to anesthetize, alleviate the pain of severely ill patients, and relieve certain mental illnesses. Although it is a kind of drug, the country has not strictly prohibited it , because the doses of hallucinogens that can be purchased legally on the market are very small, and will not cause strong harm to the human nervous system."

"Because of its special function, hallucinogens are usually associated with religion and philosophy by people. Some people are obsessed with the magical experience that hallucinogens can bring them, and believe that taking hallucinogens in moderation can help them see other people. A world, and some philosophers and artists have a soft spot for it, thinking that taking a small amount of hallucinogens can bring breakthroughs in their thinking, and maybe this is why Hooper Garcia has hallucinogens. "

Perhaps because there were no serious cases to deal with for the time being, the few people who were too idle gathered in a group in the conference room, seriously discussing the purpose and motivation of Hooper Garcia for giving Shen Lu this cigarette.

"I met a person on the road and suddenly gave him a cigarette with hallucinogens. This is too suspicious. It shows that the criminal came prepared. Either the target of the crime has special meaning to him, or He's targeting a whole target group with specific attributes."

"Yes," Newman nodded, agreeing with Kelly's speculation, "but Sean and him have never met before, so the previous hypothesis is difficult to hold water, so could it be that Sean has some special characteristics?" Does it match the target group in HooperGarcia's mind?"

Speaking of the characteristics that can attract perverts, Shen Lu immediately remembered the mysterious aura that existed in him that both Qin Qiu and Arian had mentioned that made perverts want to get closer: "..."

He shook his head speechlessly, feeling that he was simply misled by the unintentional words of those two people. If people really rely on such illusory things as breath to commit crimes, wouldn't the existence of the judiciary become meaningless? Worked?

On the other side of the conference table, the rest of the detectives have already speculated according to Newman's assumption that there are some characteristics that can be seen at a glance on Shen Lu's body that will be noticed by the criminals, and they will be regarded as the target of the crime.

Agent Field pondered for a moment: "I don't understand."

Kelly nodded in agreement, then rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "You look good!"

A few seconds later, Arvin answered in a soft voice: "It seems to have a gentle personality, so close."

"You look good, and you don't have any edges and corners. It looks easy to bully at first glance. Many criminals like to stare at you." Newman finally made a final decision.

Shen Lu: "..."

He obviously said almost all good words, but he always felt that this was a personal criticism/combat meeting for him in the group.

"But these characteristics are too common. It is estimated that more than half of the ten victims who were accidentally targeted have these characteristics." Agent Field shook his head lightly. "If hallucinogens are HooperGarcia's unique modus operandi, then What is it about Sean that makes him feel like he has to use hallucinogens?"

The entire conference room fell silent, and after a while, Agent Field suddenly asked, "Sean, do you believe in religion?"

"No," Shen Lu shook his head in denial, "I'm an atheist."

"Never involved in any art activities either?"

Shen Lu, who knew nothing about art, wiped his nose embarrassingly: "Well, yes."

People who have nothing to do with religion and art, and have nothing to do with criminals, why on earth would criminals choose to use hallucinogens to attack them?Could it be that Hooper Garcia's delivery of hallucinogens to Shen Lu was just an accidental decision of drug addicts who wanted to destroy their health?

"Did Hooper Garcia do anything else noteworthy during his time with you?"

Shen Lu frowned and thought for a while: "When I came out of Tianmu Courtyard, when I met Hooper Garcia for the second time, he said something that showed that he knew something about Arian, the envoy of God, but when Arian and I met for the first time, The attitude of the two of them doesn't look like they know each other."

The envoy Arian associated with this message was a character they didn't know much about, and the analysis of the case suddenly hit a bottleneck. Detective Field waved his hand and signaled everyone to do something else first, and wait for more information about Hooper Garcia to be dug out. More information before continuing the meeting.

At this time, the landline in the meeting room suddenly rang, and Agent Field reached out to stop everyone who was about to leave, and then connected them to the channel: "What's the matter?"

"Something happened just now. I don't know who cut a video of a dismembered corpse from the dark web and put it on the video network, which caused a very serious Internet panic." The call seemed to be from the security department. It was deleted, but I don’t know if netizens saved the video and spread it privately before deleting it.”

Detective Field tapped the table impatiently with his pen: "Don't ink, get to the point."

"Hey, the point is that the higher-ups have paid attention to it and asked us to solve this matter as soon as possible. Now you are the only ones idle in the serious crime team, so why don't your team take this case?"

Each investigation team in the bureau has its own field of expertise. In order to ensure the efficiency of handling cases, the serious crime team usually only selects the types of cases that are often involved in handling, and the few people in the Field detective team handle almost all of them. Serial homicide cases, accustomed to the case logic of serial murder cases, may not be easy for them to deal with a new type of case.

Detective Field weighed in for a moment, and decided to understand the case first before making any plans. Then, a few minutes later, the detectives present turned on the large projection screen in the meeting room, gathered around with their notebooks, and watched the episode that caused panic among the public. Dismemberment video.

At the beginning of the video, there is a picture of a masked man lying on the table with his eyes closed. His limbs are tied to the four corners of the long wooden table. His face is pale. Only the breathing in his chest proves that he is not a corpse and is still alive.

Five seconds later, a person in black clothes slowly entered the video, the video only captured the part below the chest of the person, and the black clothes were one-piece, so the information that can be obtained from the appearance is extremely Limited, several detectives can only roughly see that the skeleton of the person in the video is slender, and it may be a woman.

The man in black stood still in front of the table where the man was tied, took a bottle of water from the shelf beside him, then opened the man's mouth and forcibly poured it in.

Under such savage treatment, the man naturally woke up. He coughed hastily, and after breathing slowly, he twisted his body and yelled something loudly, but his hands and feet could not break free from the rope at all, and the yelling was not loud. The man in black didn't pay attention.

Tens of seconds later, the man's struggling movements gradually weakened, but his limbs suddenly twitched strangely, and his neck twisted to the right at an extremely exaggerated angle. The specially processed video can clearly hear the content of his thoughts.

And then, the man in black, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. He—or she—seemed to have used a voice changer, and the voice in the ears of the agents was low and hoarse, with some Not-so-real metal textures: "Are you guilty?"

The man lying on the table didn't seem to answer this question, his body was still twitching and twisting as before, and this reaction obviously didn't please the man in black standing in front of the table.

"You don't want to plead guilty."

The man in black murmured in a low voice, with a gloomy tone, and laughed again after a while, sounding as if he was very satisfied with the current situation: "The Heavenly Mother said to give sinners a chance to do good, and I have already given you a chance."

As he spoke, the man in black grabbed a polished scalpel from the shelf beside him, moved the blade to the man's calf, and stabbed it hard.

The man in black wore black leather gloves, held a scalpel, and gradually worked upwards from the man's legs. The cut pieces of meat were thrown to the ground, and blood flowed from the part where the knife touched the flesh. After a long time, the entire desktop has turned blood red.

However, the man's screams of pain did not sound in the video, he was still chanting something, even if only a vague voice came out from the video, Shen Lu could still confirm the content of the chanting and "pain" and "pain" Forgiveness" doesn't matter.

Arvin, who was less able to tolerate blood, covered his mouth and rushed to the bathroom to vomit, while the rest of them sat there with dismal faces.Shen Lu was also feeling nauseous in his stomach right now, and he almost exhausted his willpower to restrain himself so that he didn't vomit directly like Arvin.

"There is something wrong with the bottle of water the murderer fed him." Now, the only person who seems to be completely unaffected is Field Detective, who has experienced the storm. "It is a very pure drug, and it can affect people's nervous system This level is likely to be a very high-purity hallucinogen.”

Hearing this, Shen Lu's heart skipped a beat.

Tianmu, hallucinogens, sinners... These clues made him think of Arian whom he met yesterday. The other party was a psychopath with a desire to kill. If the other party killed someone without Shen Lu's knowledge, then It is also very possible.

Shen Lu could think of the connection between Arian and the case, and other detectives would naturally notice the strangeness, and Newman was the first to bring up this idea: "Tell me, will this case have anything to do with that god?" Does it matter?"

"But Sean said that the Arian envoy took the initiative to confess everything, and even wanted the police to control him so as not to cause harm to society." Kelly frowned and pursed his lips. "This attitude shows that he has not had time to do harm to society." Although he does have some mental problems, it seems that it is not good to doubt him like this?"

"What you said makes sense, but people's hearts are very complicated, and we law enforcement officers can't trust a person's one-sided words," Detective Field warned everyone with an extremely rational attitude, "and the brains of mental patients and perverts are different from ordinary people. Similarly, what they do that is harmful to society is not necessarily out of intention, and many times they don’t even realize what they are doing.”

So Kelly nodded helplessly and stopped talking.

"Let's let Sean follow up on Arian's problem. Recently, he has been going to the Tianmu Hospital in the southern suburbs to walk around more. Try to persuade him to go to the hospital for a mental evaluation. If the persuasion is ineffective, we will come back and report. Then we will go there to evaluate him in person. In short, we must Make sure his symptoms do not pose a further danger to society."

Detectives Arvin and Field in their team are both experts in psychology, so it's more than enough to give a person a psychological evaluation.

"Here," Newman couldn't help but interjected, asking the question that everyone wants to ask the most now, "shall we take this case?"

Agent Field's eyes fell on the man's bloody body in the projection screen, and he nodded after a moment of silence: "Go."

After making a decision, the old detective sighed, and then made arrangements vigorously: "There are still many doubts in this video, Newman, please take a copy of the video to the Information Department, and see if those technical nerds can Restore the processed voice, what the victim said in the video is very important to us, in addition to the murderer's voice, see if they can decode it back to the murderer's original voice by the way."

Newman mourned for a few seconds in his heart for the personnel of the information department who were about to face the bloody video, copied the video to a USB flash drive dedicated to work, and honestly took it to the information department.

"Kelly, you are on standby. When there is news from the Ministry of Information, you will be responsible for analyzing the potential meaning of what the victim said."

After Newman left the meeting room, Agent Field immediately arranged the work of the rest of the staff. At this time, Arvin, who had vomited in the bathroom, just returned to the meeting room, and listened to their leader's instruction: "Sean and Arvin, you Let me watch this video a few more times, maybe there will be many details that have been missed after watching it only once, and you are responsible for digging out all these important details for me."

"..." Arvin, still feeling uncomfortable in his stomach, could only humbly agree, "Okay."

Shen Lu also accepted the task seriously, but he swallowed secretly, feeling that the bathroom would be his next destination.
