Number two.
The old conspirator.
There is indeed such a character among the nine people.
He has never formally met Lu Wen, and he is not like other people who always like to talk nonsense.
Without saying a word, this man started to stir up trouble in secret.
And it's done indirectly.
Exploiting human weaknesses.
How many people like Lu Jianghai are there in the world
[Premeditated and good at investigation]
[Lock the goal, make a plan, and execute the plan]
[Everything is ready, nothing will go wrong]
[Control the situation]
[…]
The personality traits of Number Two are easy to identify.
This kind of person who has a plan for doing things and whose plan tends to be perfect is the most difficult to deal with.
But No. 2 took the initiative to expose a weakness.
He sent a dog over.
This means he's not just obsessed with the feeling of being the mastermind behind the scenes.
He was worried that Lu Wen didn't know it was him, so he deliberately revealed his identity. He stood behind the scenes of the world and in front of Lu Wen.
…
The time came to noon.
It’s already August, the real hot summer season.
On the Executive Board side, several experienced senior executives took turns interrogating Lu Jianghai.
But all in vain.
Lu Jianghai always maintains the attitude of 'be good to Mowu City', 'forgetting to fight will lead to danger', and 'protect the city', and his words are well-founded.
If it weren't for the fact that several old executives had experienced hundreds of battles and were invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, they might have been persuaded by him.
"Is it possible... that the murderer is a mental patient to silence the public?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's not like it's never happened before. Everyone knows it."
"But this time it's real psychosis."
Everyone is discussing.
Xia Chuluo did not join the discussion. He just crossed his arms and leaned against the wall to think quietly.
How to make most people believe that there is such a thing as psychological suggestion
This hint is actually very common.
For example, ordinary TV shopping ads, or live broadcasts with goods, after seeing it, you will have a mentality of whether to buy or not. And if everyone around you says yes, this suggestion of buying will be infinitely amplified.
External conditions only interfere with subjective judgment.
"Don't think about it. It's such a coincidence. No one will believe it." Lu Wen walked in with his dog. "If the real results were announced, many people would definitely shout, 'I don't even dare to write a novel like this.' It's better to say It’s a mental illness.”
Xia Chuluo glanced at the husky lightly.
Wise eyes, messy hair, tongue sticking out, and two front legs constantly scratching the ground.
"You dog... looks a little sloppy."
"I'll take it to take a bath later and trim its hair. It will naturally look better. After all, it's a purebred husky."
"How do you know it's pure?"
"Look at the eyes."
"Do you really want to raise it?"
"You don't like dogs?"
Lu Wen remembered that Xia Chuluo didn't seem to have much disgust.
Shouldn’t girls like this little furry animal
"It can be raised. Let me raise the machine at home and reuse it as waste."
"OK."
The two reached an agreement.
The results of the discussion over there have also come out.
It’s still the traditional method.
[Psychotic attack]
This is the explanation given by Mowu City.
Underneath this explanation are the murderer's medical records, the judgments of every doctor from childhood to adulthood, and proof of hospitalization in a mental hospital, etc.
"Lu Mouhai has been stimulated by the outside world for a long time and believes that Kerry City is going to attack Mowu City, so..."
But this explanation is obviously not acceptable to the people of Kerry City.
Even the people in Mowu City don’t believe it.
"Using mental illness again? How many times has this happened?"
"In the future, if you are underage and diagnosed with mental illness, wouldn't you be able to walk across the street with a kitchen knife?"
"It seems I have to find a way to get a mental illness certificate for myself..."
“…”
Questioning, anger, dissatisfaction, condemnation...
All kinds of voices flooded the official account of Mowu City Council, so much so that the person responsible for operations called to ask if the comment area should be closed.
The result is "no", let the people have their say.
Closing the comment section will only make you look guilty.
At this time, it is best for the top management of Mowu City to remain silent collectively.
But things are not always so good.
[You never know when a pig teammate will suddenly draw a knife and stab him in the back]
A public official who knew about the case was surrounded by a large number of media when he came home from get off work in the afternoon.
The questions asked were nothing more than about the case.
The weather was hot, and the public official was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside.
There was sweat on his forehead and his mouth was dry.
Anxious to get home.
And was flooded by countless media.
Upon seeing this, the security personnel and colleagues around him were preparing to pull him out.
I heard him yelling impatiently.
"This time it's really mental illness!"
So things completely exploded.
Even the media didn't expect it.
They originally just hoped to ask for some details about the case in order to earn clicks from the residents of the two cities.
but…
Suddenly, shocking news broke.
"It's true this time, so it's all false in the past?"
Although many people are well aware of this, this is the first time a public official has publicly acknowledged it.
"Can any kind-hearted person please count how many rich people and children of high-ranking officials have escaped punishment due to mental illness since the establishment of Mowu City?"
After all, Mowu City has been established for eighty years.
During these eighty years, we cannot say that everything has been fair and just.
Every corner of society may harbor evil and evil.
After Lu Wen saw these posts.
The first reaction is to limit the flow.
But he thought about it again...
Forget it.
Let them make trouble, it's a good thing.
At least from Lu Wen's perspective, this is a good thing.
He is just an android who has not received correct political education, and his interests are different from most people.
And Lu Wen feels that the people have the right to know about this matter.
In the past history of Mowu City, there have been many classic cases of mental illness.
[Acute transient mental disorder]
These words often appear in such cases.
The defense lawyers are trying their best to prove that although the murderer is usually normal, he suddenly became ill within a few minutes of killing people, and returned to normal after killing people.
There were so many cases like this that in order to silence the people, Mowu City specially set up a "psychiatric ward" in every prison.
But later it was said that those imprisoned there were all people with no money and no power, the real mentally ill.
at dusk.
dinner time.
Xia Chuluo suddenly asked: "You have obtained the authority of A00 anyway, so you really can't track down No. 2?"
"He's avoiding every eye of mine."
"There are still your eyes in the sky."
"But he is just an android. Even if he is caught, he can just blow himself up and throw down a body."
Neither of them actually pays much attention to public opinion.
To solve this kind of problem, we need to start from the source.
Lu Wen's brothers who had nothing to do all day long were the source.
The source of today's incident is No. 2.
Very direct method.
Blood and killing can best stir up the dark side in ordinary people's hearts.
It was six o'clock this evening.
Another person died.
This time the place of death was in Kerry City.
"The deceased this time was the former director of the Eighth District Executive Bureau of our Mowu City. He met and fell in love with a girl from the north when he was young. After retirement, he followed his wife to the northern city of Kerry and settled there."
"I think many people here know him. After all, he was our colleague."
The retired executive used the funds he had saved over the years to open a small bookstore in Kerry.
Warm, harmonious and peaceful.
I lean against the window every day, wearing reading glasses, holding a book, basking in the warm sunshine, with a cup of light tea lingering in the fragrance.
It is such a peaceful and peaceful life.
He is a kind person and rarely gets into trouble with others.
died.
It was also a tragic death.
"Died in a forest cabin on the outskirts of Kerry."
Wei Boyan sighed. It seemed that he knew the old executive.
There is plenty of wood on the Kerry side, and the suburbs are occupied by large tracts of trees.
The most well-known one should be the white birch tree, which often appears in various literary works, movies and television.
There are also maple trees, and there is even a festival dedicated to cutting maple sugar.
"I consulted him for advice on a certain case more than ten years ago. Later, we exchanged letters and exchanged our lives. I can be regarded as half a pen pal." Wei Boyan said.
After the old man retired, he purchased a piece of land in the forest on the outskirts of Kerry City.
And spent several years building a small wooden house.
On weekdays, he spends most of his time in bookstores in downtown Kerry.
When winter comes and snowflakes begin to fall in the sky, he and his wife will go to the cabin in the forest.
The snow was falling heavily, and the beautiful white color covered the house. The old couple and their dog lived in the wooden house, with a fireplace burning, the bed and wooden benches covered with furry animal skins, and their life was surrounded by warmth.
That is actually a very desirable life.
"In March of this year, at the beginning of spring, he even invited me to go there and talked about the maple sugar gathering season."
People there collect the sap from sugar maple trees in March and April and boil it into maple syrup.
Wei Bo'an was very busy at that time, and the name of the Chief of District 10 made him busy enough. He also had to secretly collect information about the boat capsizing incident that happened in District 15, so he didn't go.
Unexpectedly, there would be no chance to meet again.
Birth, old age, illness, and death can bring a lot of sadness.
But even more saddening is the regret.
A normal death will not leave too many regrets.
Photos from the scene show that the heads of the old couple were hanging from the eaves of the wooden house.
It's August now, and the two of you are probably just staying there for a few days, as the bookstores in the city are still open.
"The murderer was also caught, and he was also exposed."
"According to the news from over there, the murderer may also be mentally ill."
That man is paranoid and violent.
When I was a child, I couldn't communicate with others normally. It became normal as I grew older.
During this period, I took many medications and received a lot of psychological counseling.
But today I suddenly fell ill again.
He cut off the heads of two old men, hung them on the eaves, took photos, and uploaded them to various groups and social media.
"Instead of running away, he was sitting outside that cabin, waiting to be captured."
"But the first person to arrive at the scene was not from the Executive Directorate, but a reporter, so he accepted the interview."
the man said.
The people here in Mowu City were ruthless and killed a well-respected Kerry couple.
So he wanted to kill a couple from Mowu City, tooth for tooth, eye for eye.
"The man was speaking and waving his fists. He was very emotional, and his words were very contagious. Many simple-minded residents of Kerry City expressed their support for him."
This is a chaotic time.
Murderers and heroes are always confused.
"Wait a minute..." Lu Wen suddenly said: "There is a flaw in his words."
