After listening to Liu Huiming's analysis, Shen Ting confirmed that his level of criminal profiling was indeed very high.
It is not only clear and organized, but also well-reasoned.
The conclusions and case details can be dissected and verified with each other, which is the most rare thing!
"No wonder Team Leader Shao and the officers from the special task force call him Teacher Liu when they meet him, even though he's only in his thirties!"
However, ever since he cracked the code engraved in the human leather products, Shen Ting has also been dissecting the leather workers.
But the result was slightly different from Liu Huiming's.
Four profiling bases:
The method of death!
Based on the way Su Kexin died and the upside-down puppet that fell after the farmhouse mechanism was triggered.
The heads are cut off, the bodies are hung upside down, the blood is drained and the skin is taken out, and then leather products are made and sold.
This should be the entire killing process of the leatherworker!
According to Hannibal's explanation, hanging upside down and bleeding can make the blood stains in the human skin less and cleaner.
This shows that leather makers have very high requirements for the quality of human leather.
After confirming that the leather maker was a shadow puppeteer, Shen Ting subconsciously thought that this was the leather maker's professional habit.
After deciphering the code on the human skin products, Shen Ting discovered that occupational influence may be only the most insignificant reason.
The fundamental reason for this high requirement for human skin is precisely that -
Leather workers have to engrave those codes on human leather products.
Compared with human leather products, the codes are actually more important and meaningful to leather makers.
This can also be supported by the common characteristics of the victims.
"Qin Feng discovered that the five known victims had something in common—
Before they disappeared, they went to temples, Taoist temples, churches and other places to pray for blessings.
This clue is very important!"
Chen Ting's analysis of this point is consistent with that of the group members who discussed this point before.
Leatherworkers specifically choose their targets for leatherwork in religious places, perhaps not only because the leatherworkers themselves believe in religion.
His high requirements for human skin are not just about being free of blood stains.
The requirements of leather workers are actually higher and more idealistic.
The goal of skin removal requires a pure and clean mind!
That means requiring human skin, which is purer!
This standard clearly exceeds the professional requirements of a shadow puppeteer.
It even exceeds the objective requirements for making human leather items.
Then the question arises -
Why do leatherworkers have such high requirements for human skin?
What is so special about the leather products he makes that requires such high standards?
"The only answer I can think of is the code on the human leather product!"
Coding can be said to be the most special feature of human leather products.
"Because human skin is the carrier of the code, the leatherworker not only requires it to be free of blood, but also requires it to be sufficiently pure?"
“To put it simply!
In the eyes of leather workers, the most important thing is the notes corresponding to the code -
I love you! "
These three words are the most direct and overwhelming expression of the leatherworker's inner love.
Therefore, the leatherworker hopes that the human skin that carries these three words is clean and pure enough?
“Perhaps these three words are the core of the leatherworker’s crime.”
The third basis for profiling is the special locations involved in the case. There are currently three in this case.
The fish pond where Su Kexin’s head was found, and the wooden house where the headless body was hung upside down.
And a farmhouse with mechanisms installed!
The choice of the first two is the biggest doubt in this case.
Because the fish pond and the wooden house are not hidden enough.
The leatherworker must have lowered his standards when choosing these two places as the place to dump corpses.
The purpose is to make it easy for people to find!
Combined with the "Hongmen Banquet" set up in the farmhouse and the welcome ceremony of the headless leather doll, the leather maker seemed to deliberately leave clues for the investigators.
"He seemed to be really inviting the police to witness the big thing he was about to do."
Regarding the “invitation”, Chen Ting and Liu Huiming’s conclusions are consistent.
The biggest difference between the two conclusions is that -
What exactly is the "big event" that the leather maker wants to do and invite the police to witness?
The last autopsy conclusion and other suspicious clues also have many in this case.
For example, leather workers are religious believers, which may be the source of their mental cleanliness.
The female corpse in the refrigerator can prove the leatherworker's obsession with his deceased lover.
It is precisely this mental cleanliness that creates this obsession, causing the leatherworker to be extremely painful after the death of his lover.
in addition!
Dancing in a pool of blood at the scene of a car accident or in a wooden house.
And the last words left in the notes are: "Come! Come to me! Come to appreciate! Come to witness"!
It shows that the criminal is in a state of extreme madness and excitement.
The "big thing" he is going to do must be very important to him.
The key is!
The leatherworkers are most likely currently working on this major event.
Like Liu Huiming said, Shen Ting also believed that the pace of investigation in this case should be accelerated to find the leather maker as soon as possible and stop the possible harm he might cause.
The problem was, where to find a leatherworker?
This brings us back to the beginning!
The answer to this question lies in the biggest conflict between Chen Ting and Liu Huiming——
What is the big thing that leather workers have to do?
Liu Huiming's conclusion was to find a way to resurrect his girlfriend!
And Shen Ting's conclusion...
"Based on the method of death and the victim's characteristics, the conclusion drawn from the profiling is that the murderer attached great importance to the coded 'I love you'.
From the location of the crime and other clues, it was concluded that the murderer was mentally insane, wanted to do something big, and needed an audience.
If you think about it together with my love for you and the big thing the murderer wants to do..."
