Chapter 312 Return to the Crime Scene
It was just past two o'clock, the time of the day when the sun was at its brightest.
It feels warm when it is exposed to the sun.
The sunlight was reflected from the car window, making it a little dazzling, and Lin Siqiao subconsciously blocked it with his hand.
It was this unconscious action that made Lin Siqiao's thoughts suddenly clear.
She seemed to understand why the murderer wanted to drain the child's blood alive.
He did this not simply for the sake of killing, but... the murderer was very likely suffering from hemophagocytic disease, which is medically known as porphyria.
Most of these reasons are psychological.
Under long-term depression, patients will develop a physiological dependence on blood for some reason.
Especially the blood of babies.
In their eyes, it represents cleanliness and purity, and the more seriously ill the patient is, the more obsessed they are with it.
This kind of person is actually very easy to identify.
They are allergic to light sources, and their complexion is much paler than that of ordinary people.
When they see blood, they can't help swallowing or getting excited.
The most important thing is...even in the hot summer, they will cover their whole body with clothes.
While I was thinking, the car had already passed the archway of Chinatown.
The archway is one of the iconic buildings in Chinatown, and there is one in almost every Chinatown in the world.
The Chinese style is very special.
The two sides of the archway were crowded with people, all of whom were residents living nearby.
Chairman Xie founded a trading port in Chinatown in his early years and was highly respected by the local Chinese.
After what happened to the Xie family, people felt panic and grief, but more than that, they were heartbroken.
As soon as they saw the embassy car, everyone became excited.
Ambassador Liao asked the driver to pull over and he walked into the crowd.
Ambassador Liao knows that everyone is anxious and wants to bring the murderer to justice right now, and he understands everyone's feelings very well.
Therefore, we would like to call on everyone to contact the embassy in time if you have any new discoveries.
Everyone wanted to provide information, but the murder happened in the middle of the night.
In addition, the Xie family lived in a three-story building with its own entrance and yard. Even if they cried for help, the neighbors on both sides would not be able to hear it.
Soon, under the guidance of enthusiastic people, the group arrived at the Xie family mansion.
The police had not left yet, and the Xie family's house was sealed off.
After Secretary Jin went forward to negotiate, the police asked them to wait for a moment as an expert in fingerprint extraction was working inside.
Ambassador Liao nodded. "Then we'll just wait for a while. It won't be a problem."
After a while, the other party came out carrying a toolbox.
A lot of fingerprints were extracted from the house, but they have to go back and make a detailed comparison to see whether they belong to the deceased or the murderer.
"Okay, you can go in."
"Try to be careful and don't touch the evidence." The police reminded.
After entering the lobby on the first floor, Lin Siqiao realized that it was really difficult not to touch anything in the house.
Because wherever we go, there is almost no place to put our feet.
The entire hall was in a mess, with cups, utensils, furniture, and decorations all piled together in a mess.
Mixed with the dried blood, it looked simply shocking.
Not to mention the room, it was a mess everywhere.
After Lin Siqiao went in and took a look around, he began to think about it.
On the way to Xie's house, she heard a lot of speculation.
The local Chinese generally believed that the murderer was after money. You have to know that the ancestors of the Xie family made their fortune in the official salt business.
After coming to the country, the businesses he handled have been booming.
He is one of the richest families in Chinatown.
After taking a look at the situation now, Lin Siqiao felt that the other party was indeed after money, but he was not just after the superficial wealth.
After all, the Xie family has a lot of valuable things. If they really want money, there is no reason not to take these.
Seeing the mess in the room, Lin Siqiao suspected that the other party was looking for the entrance to some secret passage.
Otherwise, every nook and cranny wouldn't have been turned over.
And what about these paintings on the wall? Who in their right mind would take them down one by one?
I just don't know whether the other party has found it.
Thinking of this, Lin Siqiao continued to go up the stairs. The situation upstairs was not much better.
The floor of one of the rooms was almost lifted up, and Shao Bin was squatting on the ground to check it out.
Lin Siqiao glanced at the photo on the desk.
The man looked to be in his early 20s, with a shiny 3:7 parted hair and a fashionable three-piece suit. He seemed to be a young master of the Xie family.
The person did clean up the room neatly, except for this one.
As soon as Lin Siqiao got closer, he smelled an indescribable odor.
She covered her breath and was about to speak when she heard Shao Bin talking.
"This guy has a habit of smoking that."
Lin Siqiao was not surprised after hearing this.
In foreign countries, the control of this thing is not very strict. For a wealthy family like the Xie family, there are many people who want to drag them into the water for whatever purpose.
Just because President Xie’s family has a clean and upright character doesn’t mean that his children will necessarily have the same character as him.
Perhaps because the smell in the room was too pungent, Shao Bin got up and went to the balcony on the third floor and opened the window to get some fresh air.
The bustling sounds outside also came in.
Looking at the crowds of people downstairs, Lin Siqiao inexplicably thought of a movie he had seen before.
Coincidentally, this movie is also related to Chinatown.
According to the movie, criminal suspects like to return to the crime scene and pretend to be onlookers so that they can closely observe the actions of their police comrades.
As for why this happens, it is not difficult to explain from a psychological perspective.
For the murderer, every crime he committed was like a work he completed himself.
There is nothing more fulfilling than appreciating your own work in person.
Especially when they see the police in a state of panic, the psychological satisfaction will make them even more excited.
But on second thought, Lin Siqiao felt that it was unlikely.
These are professional killers. They are not stupid. They may have left the country by now.
How could I possibly come back here?
Lin Siqiao shook his head, trying to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind.
However, he didn't expect that the corner of his eye inadvertently caught sight of a few people in the distance.
Originally, Lin Siqiao didn't care too much.
It's just that the temperature today is obviously higher, so she doesn't feel cold even in her suit.
But the way these people are dressed... is a little too tight.
Recalling the previous speculation, Lin Siqiao looked at Shao Bin calmly.
"Coach Shao, do you have a telescope with you?"
She remembered that Lu Jianchuan had this thing in his backpack. It was small and much clearer than those on the market.
Shao Bin did bring it, "What do you want this for?"
As if he had thought of something, he lowered his voice and asked, "Any new discoveries?"
Lin Siqiao was unsure, but said, "It's possible. Don't look over there yet. Let's go in."
After returning to the house, Lin Siqiao moved to another room. While taking the telescope from Shao Bin, she also took out a notebook and pen from her bag.
Under the high-power lens, it can be seen quite clearly.
It was just that the other person subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat, so Lin Siqiao could only draw a rough outline.
It would be nice if the other party could raise his head once.
Thinking of this, Lin Siqiao hurriedly said a few words to Shao Bin.
Shao Bin understood, and went to the balcony as she said, and shouted to the national police downstairs.
"You, you guys, come up quickly, there is a new discovery in the room!"
Afraid that the other party might not understand, he hooked his finger.
Shao Bin had a loud voice and an exaggerated tone, and when the people watching the fun downstairs heard it, they all looked over.
The men in the distance were no exception.
It was at this moment that Lin Siqiao saw the other party's true face.
In less than three seconds, the man lowered the brim of his hat again, frowned, turned around and left Chinatown.
