Chapter 161 The whole story of Yao Yang's case (Part 2)

When Guo Jia said this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, as if he was in the unfinished building back then, and the expression on his face became extremely solemn.

Han Xu naturally knew that Guo Jia was lost in memories, so he did not interrupt and waited for the other party to continue talking.

Guo Jia reacted after a brief moment of confusion and looked at the two young talents from Yancheng with an apologetic look.

"I'm sorry, I was lost in thought."

Li Le didn't mind at all, but was very interested in the case back then, and couldn't help asking, "What happened next?"

Guo Jia paused for a moment and then continued, "Then there was the third case and the fourth case. Alas, due to our work mistakes, the case was leaked out somehow, causing an uproar for a while.

I remember that the whole Yaoyang City was in a panic at that time. Not only women of the right age, but also men did not dare to walk at night.

Not many people dared to go out on the streets even in broad daylight.

Four murders in a row!

These cases have not been solved for a long time and have received sufficient attention from above.

The provincial department sent a task force, but the people on the task force left one after another, one after another.

Guess what? Haha, I was stunned that I didn’t even touch a hair on the other party’s body.

Strangely enough, the murderer disappeared out of thin air after committing four murders in a row.

Never committed a crime again!

You also know that what we in criminal investigation are most afraid of are criminals like this who suddenly stop taking action!

You have no idea when he will make a comeback? !

I heard our leaders say before that you may come here to investigate the case from that year.

To be honest, that case has become a knot in my mind, so I came here to receive you. "

Han Xu and Li Le didn't expect such a thing to happen, so they both fell silent.

Although the current case is somewhat clear, it is getting further and further away from the case that happened to Yaoyang.

Even if the lighthouse serial murder case in Yancheng is solved, it may not be of any help to Yaoyang's investigation, so Han Xu inevitably doesn't know what to say.

Li Le focused on other aspects, "Didn't the four cases that happened in Yaoyang leave any clues?"

Hearing Li Le's question, Han Xu recalled the information Yu Tianfang gave him, which clearly stated that each scene had been cleaned extremely clean, leaving no valuable clues.

As a witness to the case and the discoverer of one of the cases, Guo Jia is of course very concerned about the progress of the case.

However, as far as he knew, the four cases were just like the lighthouse case in Yancheng, leaving no clues for investigation.

Guo Jia even once suspected that the criminal suspect was completely a demon, otherwise it would be impossible to explain how the other party could not leave any clues.

"Oh, it would be great if the murderer left any clues," Guo Jia seemed to suddenly think of something, "Oh, no, he seems to have left a signature!"

"Signature?" Han Xu and Li Le immediately became interested, especially Han Xu. He didn't remember mentioning such a signature in the information.

Guo Jia frowned and without thinking, picked up a branch and drew a few strokes on the dirt floor of the small courtyard.

Horizontal, vertical, and oblique strokes are just three strokes!

Like a wooden character, missing the last touch!

Not a Chinese character at all!

Li Le looked at Tou Da and wondered, "What word is this? Why don't I recognize it?"

Han Xu continued, "Don't say you don't know it, I don't know it either. It's just an unfinished word."

"Yes, maybe it was not finished," Guo Jia paused, "so many people at the time did not think it was a signature. They preferred it to be a coincidence, but I don't believe in coincidences at all."

Han Xu looked up and down at the unfinished word. Perhaps it was a radical, but he couldn't figure it out. He couldn't help but ask, "Where did the murderer write this word?"

Guo Jia guessed that Han Xu would ask this question and said calmly, "On the back of one of the corpses!"

Li Le's eyelids twitched when he heard this, "It's so heartbreaking!"

Guo Jia continued, "Although the scars on the back of the corpse are messy, it can be clearly seen that there is such a meaningless word carved on it.

Alas, I have been studying for several years, but I still haven’t figured out what a horizontal line, a vertical line, or a stroke mean!

Maybe it really is just a coincidence.

Or maybe it was just the murderer's sudden bad taste when he was committing the crime.

That word itself has no meaning. "

When Han Xu heard this, he didn't think that the so-called word had any meaning, but he just couldn't find any relevant clues.

Since the murderer left a message, there must be a certain reason!

Han Xu doesn’t believe in coincidences either, he only believes in the evidence before him!

The story of the four serial murders in Yaoyang is actually not complicated. One of the important reasons why the murderers were able to commit four serial murders in a short period of time is that they committed the crimes randomly without any clear goals at all!

As long as they are women of the right age, they will become the target of the murderer, even if these women have nothing in common!

It is completely opposite to the ordinary serial cases.

Most serial killers love to leave their signatures!

Han Xu believes that general criminal behavior often reflects the inner character of the murderer.

Crime scenes often leave personal marks belonging to the murderer, such as some means and behaviors that are not necessary for the crime.

Especially for some habitual criminals, their criminal methods may continue to improve, but these subtle details are like obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is difficult for criminals to erase.

This is even more true in serial murder cases.

However, in the Yaoyang case, the irregular character with one stroke missing in the character "木" does not look like a signature at all.

Because it only appeared on one victim and does not have a compulsive attribute, it is no wonder that many people before ignored this character.

However, Han Xu believes that this act of leaving a character is likely that the murderer gradually awakened something in the process of killing again and again, and began to consciously leave something.

It's just that this process is slower than that of ordinary serial killers.

He just "grows" more slowly in the process of killing.

So, Han Xu spoke out his thoughts without reservation.

Guo Jia and Li Le were both confused. It turned out that there was such an explanation!

But if it is true as Han Xu said, then the murderer's mind is much lower than that of normal people.

Then the question comes!

How did the murderer manage to clean up the scene so well?

"Could it be that he has an accomplice?" Li Le's way of looking at problems is often surprising.

When Han Xu heard this, he seemed to have grasped something, but it quickly slipped away from his fingertips.

"Accomplice?" Guo Jia shook his head when he heard this word, not quite agreeing that it was not just one person who committed such a brutal crime.
