The two were silent for a while, and Yin Feng said, "But if it was someone close to us, it would make sense why he was hiding. Why is it that every time we investigate a case, the Punisher seems to be able to see ahead of us? Of course, there were a few times when we fought against the Punisher and had the upper hand. But could it be that the man was sacrificing his identity to save his own?"
A deep chill suddenly surged in You Mingxu's heart.
At this time, Yin Feng hugged her and said, "Who knows, maybe it's just someone I've seen before, or someone I knew before."
You Mingxu nodded.
Yin Feng said: "Let's keep this a secret for now. You and I know what's going on. We'll observe in secret and wait and see what happens. Let's focus all our efforts on catching the apprentice killer. Who knows, we might be able to lure someone out."
——
You Mingxu and Yin Feng returned to the office. Xu Mengshan and several key members were also there, organizing and discussing today's investigation work. Yin Feng said, "Let's go to the conference room. I have some new ideas."
Everyone looked at him. Yin Feng smiled and said to You Mingxu, "That was bad news just now, but this is good news."
When everyone walked into the meeting room, they were all stunned.
Because there was a table drawn on the blackboard on that wall, and it was full of words. Xu Mengshan read it out: "On the left...Xu Baping, on the right...the apprentice killer! Is this a comparative analysis of them? Why? Teacher Yin, have you found the connection between them? But Lao Ding has already said that the murderer back then was 100% Xu Baping, and this must be an imitation - could it be that Xu Baping back then left behind an apprentice?"
Xu Mengshan's statement was earth-shattering and everyone was stunned. You Mingxu also frowned - she knew more about Xu Baping's information than anyone else. His family was in poverty, his parents were both dead, he had no relatives or friends, and in the end he was on the verge of mental disorder and committed crimes crazily. How could such a person accept disciples?
Unexpectedly, Yin Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "Your brain works quite quickly. Who knows? Maybe there really was such a person left behind back then. Everyone, let's take a look at their behavioral analysis comparison table first."
The detectives all stared with wide eyes - it turned out that this thing was called a Behavior Analysis Comparison Form.
The current Yin Feng is no longer the You Yingjun of the past. Whenever he makes a discovery, he speaks it out like firecrackers, and these criminal police may not be convinced. He is much more cunning, just like now, he has made a discovery but doesn't say it out loud, but puts the clues in front of the criminal police first, preferably letting them discover it themselves. Wouldn't it be much easier to use him this way?
So Yin Feng sat down calmly, poured himself a glass of water from the water dispenser next to him, and drank it slowly.
You Mingxu also looked up. The first item in the table, and the first comparison item, is “Marking Behavior”.
The marking behaviors of the two killers were both severe injuries to sexual organs, and the conclusion after comparison was "the same".
Item 2: “Goals”.
Xu Baping: Female aged 20-30, random.
Apprentice Killer: A massage girl in her early 20s, honest and conservative, with few friends.
Conclusion: Target selection is more precise and easier to control.
Item 3: “Sexual assault”.
Xu Baping: Yes.
Apprentice Killer: None.
Seeing this, You Mingxu was stunned, as if he had tasted the difference between the two killers even more clearly.
Item 4: “Planning”.
Xu Baping: No plan, random selection, simple tracking, and crime committed in the heat of the moment.
Apprentice Killer: Make a plan, select a target, track carefully, and plan the crime.
Item 5: “On-site”.
Xu Baping: If you don’t clean it up, it will leave a lot of traces and evidence.
Apprentice Killer: Cleans up, leaving almost no trace.
Item 6: “Victim response”.
Xu Baping: Some resisted, and some did not. There was more physical contact and scars.
Apprentice Killer: No resistance at all, no unnecessary physical contact or injuries.
Item 7: “Time Interval”.
Xu Baping: Uncertain.
Apprentice Killer: 10 days.
Item 8: “Main tools”.
Xu Baping: Rope and dagger.
Apprentice Killer: Rope, dagger.
Item 9: “Other tools”.
Xu Baping: None.
Apprentice Killer: drugs, gloves, rubber gloves, masks, and hoods.
Item 10: “Whether there was any conversation”.
Xu Baping: None.
Apprentice Killer: Yes.
…
At this time, a criminal police officer said: "I don't think this person can be an apprentice. He is obviously better than Xu Baping in every aspect!"
Everyone agreed.
You Mingxu's heart moved. Yin Feng would not emphasize this for no reason. What's the point? And it seems that the apprentice killer really did everything right where Xu Baping had flaws... Wait, does this in itself have any special meaning?
Yin Feng looked at her expression, as if he understood that she had already thought of it. He smiled, but You Mingxu thought his smile was too evil and turned away.
Seeing her dodge like a rabbit, Yin Feng smiled again, and then looked at the detectives, who should have noticed something was wrong. He said, "In your eyes, a certain piece of physical evidence must correspond to a specific reason. Fingerprints correspond to identity, footprints correspond to height, body shape and walking habits, and the direction of blood spray corresponds to the means of committing the crime... In fact, behavioral analysis is the same. A certain unusual behavior of a perverted killer must correspond to his psychological characteristics.
This is no coincidence. The apprentice's marking behavior was exactly the same as Xu Baping's, the core murder weapon was exactly the same, and the method and process of committing the crime were basically the same - he did it on purpose.
However, there have been so many serial killers throughout history, and Xu Baping was neither unique nor outstanding. Why did he choose Xu Baping to imitate? This is the first doubt.
The second doubt is that it is not just a simple imitation, but a "comprehensive optimization". Xu Baping optimized, improved and perfected every aspect that he did not do well enough. In other words, does he feel that Xu Baping did not do well enough back then? ”
Everyone was stunned.
Xu Mengshan blurted out: "The apprentice is also related to the case of that year?"
A criminal policeman said: "But back then, the apprentice should have been only a few years old..." When he said this, he was stunned.
You Mingxu said: "Let's check right away! Are there any children who were involved in the case or even witnessed the case? Oh, I remember that one of the victims had a child who was only a few years old."
Another detective said: "Victim? How could the victim's child feel that the murderer who killed their mother didn't do a good enough job and want to do it again and better?"
You Mingxu didn't say anything, but looked at Yin Feng, and his eyes were dim, obviously approving of her words.
