Crazy Detective

Chapter 21: Why chop hands?

Views:

Zhao Yu was determined to learn from Qu Ping and others.

So he stayed at his desk since then, carefully eavesdropping on Team B's every move, even going to the toilet without delay.

As expected, Qu Ping paid great attention to the latest clues found by Zhang Jingfeng and Liang Huan, and immediately launched an investigation into the source of the single-light film.

There are very few purchase channels for that kind of single-light film. Within just a few hours, they found all the recent buyers.

Immediately afterwards, they began to investigate these buyers non-stop. Team leader Qu Ping sent almost everyone in the team out.

However, when the investigation results came out in the evening, depressing news came one after another.

It turns out that this kind of single-light film, without exception, is purchased by performance troupes. Some are used for magic tricks, and some are used to make stage props.

Although only a few theater groups purchased it, the purchase volume of each theater group was very large.

According to the relevant person in charge, although this kind of single-light film is expensive, it is of no use to ordinary people, so there is no special person in the theater to take care of it, and it is usually left in the warehouse behind the stage.

Whether it's employees of the unit, actors on set, or even spectators passing by accidentally, they may just grab a few pieces and take them away.

If we really investigate such a chaotic situation, the workload can be imagined.

From this point of view, this clue still cannot be continued, and the clue is interrupted again.

After receiving this news, not only Qu Ping and her team members, but even the eavesdropper Zhao Yu felt very frustrated.

It seems that they still underestimated the murderer's ability. This guy's thinking was so perfect that he was a criminal genius!

Although the clues on the film alone were unavailable, Qu Ping did not give up completely. Instead, she left two detectives to continue the investigation while the others returned to the team to wait for orders.

This time, Qu Ping undoubtedly felt tremendous pressure. If the hand-chopping case is still unresolved, she is likely to be affected.

However, Qu Ping has tried her best and carefully screened almost all the clues. So far, let alone catching the murderer, she can't even describe the basic characteristics of the murderer.

This was unique among the cases she had investigated before.

Gradually, the clock moved towards early morning. Although Qu Ping and others were still doing tireless analysis, fewer and fewer people spoke.

Zhao Yu was the only one left in the office of Group A.

He lay on his desk and waited for a long time, but he couldn't hear much movement from the bug. It seemed that Qu Ping and the others were almost at the end of their rope.

Grandma is a bitch!

Zhao Yu turned around and stared at his whiteboard seriously.

But in the center of the whiteboard, there is a clear word "4.26" written on it.

This number represents April 26th.

The first hand-chopping case last year occurred on April 22, and five days later, on April 26, the second hand-chopping case occurred.

Coincidentally, the latest hand-chopping case this year also took place on April 22. Therefore, the detectives are worried that this year will be the same as last year. On the 26th, there will be a fourth case

If a fourth hand-chopping case really happens, the consequences will be quite serious.

There will definitely be an uproar in the public opinion circle, and they, the frontline police detectives, will definitely be criticized. Now the whole situation is shrouded in a heavy atmosphere.

The early morning has passed, and it is now April 25th. If the murderer is really planning to commit another crime, then there is really not much time left for them.

Who is this murderer

Zhao Yu scratched his head, still thinking about the case all the time.

In fact, Zhao Yu, in addition to copying the ideas of Qu Ping and others, also had some different views of his own regarding this case.

He has always had an unformed idea that the reason why the case has not been solved for so long may not be because the murderer is too cunning, but because the police have deviations in some subjective understandings.

For example, although Qu Ping and the others didn't say it explicitly, they already assumed that the murderer was a male!

Because in the first case, the murderer dragged the victim directly into the power distribution room in the underground passage in public.

Also, if the murderer is a woman, it may be very difficult to chop off a person's hand with a sharp weapon.

But... what if they are wrong

What would happen if the murderer was not a man

Take today's single-light film on BMW cars as an example. The murderer used such an advanced film that not even an outline was captured by the surveillance camera.

So... why doesn't the murderer even want to be photographed

Could it be that... his outline would reveal something

For example... it will be revealed that she is a - woman!

In addition, there is another point. Zhao Yu also believes that Qu Ping and the others are biased, and that is the murderer's purpose!

So far, the murderer has chopped off the right hands of three women, but... why did he chop off their hands

Qu Ping and others have always believed that the victims of the hand-chopping case were randomly selected by the murderer. There is no direct grudge between the murderer and the victim!

The reason is simple and sufficient, that is, the three victims did not know each other. Not only were they not classmates, they were not even in the same school.

Worried that her judgment was wrong, Qu Ping also checked to see if the three of them had any acquaintances in common. However, after investigation, although there were one or two, they were all very distant relationships, and there was no investigative value at all.

Since there was no grievance, Qu Ping naturally classified the hand-chopping case as a case of psychological abnormality and injury. She believed that the murderer had some kind of psychological shadow. For example, his wife spent money to ruin the family, and her husband was sick, so he committed the murder.

However, Zhao Yu didn't think so.

Although he has never been a police officer, his perspective on certain issues is no less than that of a police officer.

For example, although the three victims did not know each other, their bodies, looks, shapes, the clothes they were wearing at the time of the crime, the length of their hair, and each other's occupations, etc., were all different.

The only thing these three people have in common is gender, age and family conditions.

Zhao Yu felt that if the murderer really had perverted tendencies, he should at least choose victims with similar appearances.

For example, if you want to kill your wife because she spends money to ruin your family, then you have to at least find someone who is similar to his wife, right

What's more, according to data, although the three victims have wealthy families, they do not have the habit of spending money lavishly.

Because of this, Zhao Yu had doubts about Qu Ping's judgment.

What if the murderer is not mentally deformed

Due to Zhao Yu's special work before traveling through time, he had witnessed many vendettas and bloody revenges.

For some reason, he always felt that the hand-chopping case in front of him was particularly similar to those bloody revenges.

The murderer chopped off their hands not because of personal preference or mental abnormality, but because he truly sought revenge!

The reason why Zhao Yu thinks so is not just a random guess, but a very point-winning reason!
