"Of course, this is a fool. You don't understand the rules at all, so how can you ask me directly! Generally, this kind of website has a very high degree of exclusion, and internal members have a fixed chat room." Dynasty said with a sense of justice, "Yes. Now, boss, look at the previous comments, is it clear that this live broadcast is charged?"
Xing Conglian heard the words, glanced at Lin Chen, and said, "I'll adjust the recording content forward."
Lin Chen knew in his heart that he was worried that if he saw Xu Haozhen jumping off the building again, he would feel psychologically uncomfortable, so he said, "Don't worry about me, if you repeatedly receive stimulation, the psychological threshold will become higher, and you will not be so emotionally excited."
Xing Conglian frowned, but still obeyed, slowly dragging the video to the beginning.
"I'm afraid there are not only fees, but also rewards." Xing Conglian pressed the pause button, pointed to a message in an indistinguishable language, and said, "Here is a reward of 10 bitcoins, asking for more violent scenes."
"Damn it, local tyrant!" When Wang Chao heard the words, he stretched out his hand to cover the suicide screen, and then carefully looked at the message, "It's really 10 bitcoins, 25,000 yuan!"
"The exchange rate is so high?" Lin Chen was a little surprised.
"Yeah, Bitcoin is a common electronic currency for Deepweb. Because it is encrypted, has good anonymity, and has more and more users, the exchange rate between it and real currency has been continuously rising..." Dynasty's voice was a little cold. , he paused and said, "It also reflects from the side that the business in the underground world is getting better and better, hehe."
"Wait, you seemed to say just now that you offered a reward of 100 bitcoins on the forum?" Xing Conglian suddenly remembered something, "You just spent 250,000 for Lao Tzu?"
"Boss, take a good look at your message, don't pay attention to such details, okay!" Chao said in anger, "For the efficiency of solving the case, what's the point of spending a little money!"
"Well, it will cost money, and it will be promising." Xing Conglian praised.
Dynasty: "… "
"Then, someone offered a reward to watch more violent content, has the website administrator been invited?" Lin Chen interrupted the conversation between the two and pulled the topic back to the original point.
More violent content
If this website is not only on-demand, but also invited to perform the scenes requested by the audience, it means that when the bounty can satisfy the owner of the website, there will really be more violent and bloody content than the live broadcast of the death of three people jumping off the building
Lin Chen didn't dare to think about it.
"I'm afraid, money can make a ghost run the mill." Xing Conglian's finger crossed another message, his face was ugly, "This person said that this live broadcast is very satisfying, and it is more exciting than the last burial..."
Lin Chen looked at the screen, and it was another message that was indistinguishable from the language: "What language is this, and is there any related content before and after?"
"Norwegian, I remember there was a message that mentioned the word burial alive."
Lin Chen was a little shocked, Xing Conglian's language ability seemed to be too high.
After all, he himself has never had any attainments in linguistics, and his English proficiency was only improved after being ravaged by various literatures after he went to university.
So in the face of Xing Conglian, who is proficient in Russian, French, Arabic, and can translate even the minority Norwegian language smoothly, for a while, he didn't know what to ask.
Xing Conglian swept through those short, flowing conversations attentively, then stopped abruptly: "Here."
However, after he said those two words, he stopped, as if the content of the message in front of him was beyond words.
"What did you say?" Lin Chen asked.
Xing Conglian glanced at him, shook his head slightly, calmed his breath, and then said, "He said that the last time he watched Buried Alive, he shot."
As if there was a cool air, it ran up to the top of his head along his spine. Lin Chen was speechless for a long time. He looked at the dark website, as if he saw a bottomless dark world.
He suddenly understood why the Dynasty would avoid the dark network like a snake.
After all, this is an unregulated underground kingdom, home to countless violent criminals and psychopaths.
"So, these three cases are really deeply related." After a long time, Lin Chen finally spoke, he said, "The question is, what about the next time?"
Judging from the three live broadcasts they have mastered, from the live broadcast of the massacre to the burial of three people and then to the incident of jumping off the building, the level of violence is constantly increasing. There must be a deep intention of the live broadcasters to grab more benefits. The problem is, this is information and In an unequal case, they are waiting for the case from beginning to end without any resistance.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the campus of Yongchuan University is still quiet and peaceful. Occasionally there are young men and women holding books, walking under the shade of the trees. They are smiling and relaxed, but perhaps among those students, some people have gone deep into the online world. On the darkest side, there are people who wear double identities and perform dramas at the cost of their lives for the hungry perverts of the dark network, while the rest of the people are lucky and don't know what kind of darkness there is. , breed on this campus.
"Can you still contact the person who gave you the entrance to this website?" Xing Conglian knocked on the table and asked Dynasty.
"Probably if you have money, I'll spend another few hundred thousand to try it out?" Dynasty asked tentatively.
Xing Conglian was noncommittal, and only said, "You try to enter their private forum, it would be better if you can determine the start time of the next live broadcast." He paused and asked Lin Chen again, "Do you have any ideas?"
Lin Chen held the coffee cup, took a sip, and looked away from the boys and girls on the campus.
"There are two questions. First, why did the incident take place on the campus of Yongchuan University; second, what motivated them to give up their lives willingly?"
Suicide rather than murder, which is more creepy because of willingness.
"Why?" Wang Chao said depressedly, lying on the table, "Is there any clues that I can investigate now, other than letting me go fishing and law enforcement
Xing Cong Lian pondered for a moment, and said, "It is now quite certain that the first live burial incident was also suicide, and as you deduced before, the deceased dug the grave with his own hands, so there must be someone else to take their place. Cover with the last handful of dirt..."
In other words, there must be witnesses or accomplices.
"But it's also possible that that person, or those people, have committed suicide." Lin Chen said coldly.
The incident fell here, and once again fell into a dead end.
Like the dead Cheng Weiwei, it is very likely that the person who covered the last layer of soil with his own hands became a corpse that could no longer speak before he was about to be found.
That person, maybe Jiang Liu, maybe Xu Haozhen, maybe the boy who jumped off with them, maybe even the three of them together.
"Ah, my head hurts." Wang Chao thought about it for a long time, but couldn't help but bang his head against the table, very distressed.
Once it comes to Deepweb, he seems to be shackled, and Kong has the power of the wild and can't use it.
"Actually, there is a clue that is not a clue."
Lin Chen held the boy's forehead and took out three pieces of tissue paper from his pocket, which were the profiles of the personality test he had taken from the portfolios of Wang Shishi, Jiang Liu, and Xu Haozhen.
"Although we can no longer communicate with the deceased, they still left some psychological marks."
"What's this?" Wang Dynasty stretched his neck, watching Lin Chen arrange the three sheets of paper on the table one after another, with some numbers and zigzag lines connecting the numbers printed on the paper, which looked like an electrocardiogram.
"The MMPI, by far the most widely used personality test in the world, is mostly used to identify psychiatric disorders."
"Yes, yes, it's okay to commit suicide, what is it if it's not a mental problem?"
Lin Chen glanced at the psychological file in front of him and said, "Unfortunately, the results of their personality test when they entered the school told me that the three of them are all very healthy."
"Are you sure..." The boy smacked his lips.
Hearing Wang Chao's words, Lin Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the data again.
In fact, when he first saw the personality characteristics of the three girls, he was also very surprised, whether it was hypochondriasis, depression, psychosis or paranoia, mental weakness... The indicators of the three girls were all within the normal range, the only one Close to the outliers, there is only si, which is what he has always found very, very strange.
"What do you think of this?" Xing Conglian asked suddenly.
"It's very simple. The upper line is 70 points, the lower line is 30 points, and 50 is the middle value. The closer to 70 points, the more abnormal it is."
"Then what does this si mean?"
"Social Introversion."
"Social introverted personality?" Xing Conglian touched the stubble of his chin, "This seems to fluctuate a lot, it's very close to 70, what do you mean."
"Meaning, the three of them are introverted, timid, withdrawn, unsociable, easily succumbed, nervous..."
Thinking of the generous and cheerful girl in the Heaven and Human Club that day, Xing Conglian flashed an incredible look in his eyes: "This is not like Xu Haozhen."
"But it's the same as their state when they entered school. I've seen their self-introduction videos when they entered school. How can I put it, they are all cowardly and introverted."
"But if they are all introverted girls, how dare they do those deviant things?"
"No, in fact, the personalities of the three of them have undergone major changes during college. This is the only clue I can grasp now."
"What made them change?" Xing Conglian was keenly aware of the key.
"In fact, this question should be asked like this. Did the reasons that prompted them to change also lead to their suicide?" Lin Chen said.
Does such a thing exist
It can energize you, make you look different, and make you feel like a new life every day, but at the same time, it's so evil as a drug that it will make you willingly pay with your life.
"Let's go back to the rooftop to see." Lin Chen finally said.
When the three of them left the cafe, Chao Dynasty deliberately fell to the end. When the revolving door turned, he suddenly pulled Xing Conglian, just a glass door away from Lin Chen.
"Boss, I'm afraid this is a major transnational case. Do you want to notify the ICPO people?"
"No need for now." Looking at Lin Chen's back, Xing Conglian said.
