Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Six: Goal Selection Seeking Monthly Pass) 4300 words seeking monthl
Kai's analysis was very thorough and reasonable. But to the Chicago police, Victor's profile also matched many factors of the murderer. So they didn't care what Kai said and just arrested Victor as the murderer.
.
Kai didn't have any objections to this, because no matter whether he was the murderer or not, their goal was to catch Victor. Even Chicago regarded him as the murderer, and maybe they would work harder. After all, a bad person like Victor,
There is really no one to pity when he dies.
Victor's residence in Chicago is not difficult to find, and it can even be said to be very easy. He rented an apartment in an old apartment building in the South City under his real name. This kind of thing is very easy to find. The police quickly followed the address.
Victor was found, but contrary to everyone's expectations... Victor was brought back easily.
No one resisted...or he didn't have the ability to resist.
…
Kai rushed to the hospital immediately after getting the news.
"The patient should have been confined to bed for a year based on the level of degeneration in his muscles and spine, and his blood tests indicated that he had been taking a large number of medications, including antibiotics, perhaps to avoid bed sore infection."
"Can we talk to him now?" Kai asked tentatively. But he didn't give much hope. Because the murderer was so cautious that he would not leave such an obvious witness to the police.
"Although his brain has not turned into paste and he should still be able to think, he must first have a tongue that can speak. His tongue was bitten off a long time ago."
Kai looked at Victor's miserable condition through the glass of the sterile isolation ward and asked.
"Doctor, do you think it is completely impossible for him to survive?"
"If you shine a flashlight into his eyes now, you will scare him to death immediately!" The doctor paused and then said: "Of all the patients I have seen in my life, he suffered the most severe pain and pain.
Torture, this is not the worst, because the real hell is still waiting for him ahead. According to my point of view, the most merciful thing to do now is to go in and give him a shot in the head so that he can leave this damn hell early.
!”
After saying that, the doctor turned and walked away. It could be seen that the doctor was also stimulated by Victor's tragic situation. In fact, he was not the only one. During the arrest operation, two special police officers were already frightened, and now they are receiving
Psychological consultation. This guy has been tortured beyond shape. He is more like a mummy that is still alive, and his whole body is rotten.
According to the doctor's guess, he bit off his tongue by himself. You can imagine the torture he endured. In addition to his tongue, his left hand was cut off and then tied to a bed for a year. His gastrointestinal disease has been seriously damaged.
Degeneration, which means that he has not eaten for a year and has been relying on infusions to maintain his physiological characteristics. He also relies on a catheter to urinate.
And his chopped off left hand was the source of the fingerprints in the previous case. What’s even more terrifying is that the murderer also left 365 photos of Victor over the past year where he was imprisoned, 365 days.
There are a lot of photos. When the Chicago police found Victor, it was exactly one year, not more than one day, not less than one day...
"Okay, now we can put Mills under custodial protection." Seeing the doctor leave, Kai shook his head, and then said to William next to him.
As for the reason, Kai didn't say it, and William didn't ask. Because it was obvious. Two of the three victims in this serial murder case are related to Mills. What's more, the time of the case happened to be the same as that of Mills.
Mills' registration in Chicago overlapped.
If there are too many coincidences, it will no longer be a coincidence.
Although it is still uncertain what the existence of Mills means to the murderer, they must do this for the safety of Mills.
William nodded, then fell into deep thought, and then he said uncertainly: "Rage."
Kay didn't understand what William meant, and William continued: "Mills has a bad temper. He is very easily controlled by his emotions!"
Among the seven deadly sins is rage!
Think again about all the trouble Mills made because of Victor's case.
Kai also understood that the murderer probably regarded Mills as his target!
"So that means the root cause of all this is that case!"
The murderer did not choose the target at random. Kai had already seen this, and Victor was imprisoned for a year, which was a strong proof of this! But he was still not sure what criteria the murderer used to select his target.
.
But William's reminder immediately reminded Kai of that case.
"Hailey! You immediately go to the headquarters to retrieve all the files of Mills and Springfield City, and ask them to send all the relevant information! By the way, there is also the fat man! He must be related to this matter! Also
Check it out for me!"
"Understood!" Haili immediately left with Jin.
Kay said to William: "I think we have to talk to Mills!"
…
In the middle of the night, Mills was ordered to protect Pepper, so he did not go home. Instead, he prepared to spend the night in the living room of the hotel's presidential suite. As for the two ladies, they naturally slept on the super-large bed in the master bedroom!
Just when Mills was about to fall asleep, the hotel door was suddenly kicked open.
William and Kay led a group of special police officers and rushed in with weapons in hand.
Mills jumped up immediately, and before he could figure out what was going on, the special police officers began to spread out and inspect every corner of the presidential suite.
"Safety!"
"Safety!"
Then Kai kicked open the ladies' room, which frightened the two drunk ladies out of their wits. When they saw Kai barging in with a gun, the two women instinctively wrapped themselves in quilts and screamed!
"Farke! What the hell are you doing?!!!"
Hearing the scream of veteran Tracy, Mills immediately pushed aside everyone and ran into the room.
But Kai and William ignored them. Instead, they searched the room with guns, even behind the curtains. When Kai was checking the window, he suddenly found on the roof of the building directly opposite the hotel room.
A figure disappeared in a flash!
Kai immediately turned his head and shouted to other police officers: "Send someone to the building opposite! I see someone watching over here! Immediately!"
The special police did not dare to delay. They immediately took out their walkie-talkies and asked their colleagues on standby outside the hotel to go to the roof of the building opposite to check!
"Adam!!!" Pepper exploded immediately after seeing that it was Kai. She hadn't forgiven him yet! But this guy broke in so rudely in the middle of the night!
Pepper was wearing a silk suspender pajamas, and when she lifted the quilt and went crazy, her perfect figure was on full display.
After Kai was satisfied with his eyesight, he grabbed an unknown coat and threw it to Pepper.
"This matter is very serious. I will explain it to you later. Now, put on your clothes and we are leaving!"
Looking at a room full of armed SWAT police, no matter how angry Little Pepper was, she understood that this was definitely not for no reason.
The same was true for Mills. Although he hugged Tracey in grief and anger and glared at the group of people, he still helped his wife get the clothes honestly.
At this time, the police who went to check the building opposite also reported back the news. There was no one on the roof of the building opposite, but they found a telescope and a telephoto camera! Kai was not wrong, there was indeed someone on the opposite side!
…
Soon the two ladies got dressed and were taken into a bulletproof car. This was the police chief's car. If there were only Mills and Tracey, they wouldn't be treated like this, but that wasn't the case with Pepper. Originally, this
The matter has nothing to do with Pepper, but her status is so valuable that she cannot make any mistakes, so the police station takes it very seriously.
"Okay, now you can tell me, what are you doing?"
Pepper asked impatiently after the car started.
Kai did not answer Pepper, but turned to Mills and asked: "Do you remember Victor?"
"That bastard? What happened to him?" For Victor, Mills probably will never forget him in his life.
"He's dead! He died in the Seven Deadly Serial Murder Case! And Gould, who was Victor's defense lawyer at the time!"
Mills opened his mouth. He had been transferred away from the case at that time, and he really didn't pay attention to who the defense lawyer was. He only knew that he was a barrister from Chicago. But he didn't pay much attention to the name Gould.
Mind remember.
"so……"
Mills is not stupid, so he naturally thought of what Kai meant.
"Well, we suspect that you have also been targeted by the murderer!"
Mills was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Why?"
Based on the characteristics of the first three victims, Mills could also guess the criteria for the murderer to choose his target. The victims were all sinners, and except for the fat boss who knew it well, both the lawyer and Victor were among the guilty!
But Mills didn't understand why he was being targeted.
"In that case... your lack of calmness did allow a criminal to escape punishment. In a sense, you were indeed guilty." Kai said calmly.
When Mills heard this, his first reaction was to get angry, but he soon froze.
He blames his colleagues for talking too much, the judge for being incompetent, and the jury for being stupid. But if he thinks about it more carefully, why is he not responsible?
"I..." Mills was at a loss at this moment.
Tracy looked at her husband worriedly.
"For safety reasons, I need to put you into protective custody. I hope you can understand. As for the two of them... I think it is better to protect them together. Your hotel room has been monitored before."
Pepper should stop making trouble now, life is at stake!
…
Mills and his party were quickly taken to the safe room arranged by the Chicago police. It was an extremely luxurious villa with a wide view and was surrounded by high walls, which was very conducive to defense. In addition, there were twenty special police officers and ten
The defense of the police detectives, and the police station is always on standby. If there is a problem, additional personnel will be sent out immediately!
This is not to say that it is impregnable, but it is almost the same.
"Mills, I need you to recall as soon as possible the other related persons who took up the case. As long as they meet the remaining characteristics of the seven deadly sins, they can be regarded as targets." Kai took the information and talked with William about the case with Mills.
In that minor sexual assault case, there were at least dozens of witnesses, investigators, etc., and the information of these dozens of people was placed in front of them, but the problem was that it was impossible to tell who would become a victim simply by looking at the information.
The target of the murderer.
Mills was pulling his hair irritably. He was very irritable now. Because of Kay and William's inference, he had the feeling that he had created that perverted serial killing. This made Mills very decadent and very self-blame.
.
"This is very important Mills, I need you to calm down." Kai has already asked people to start investigating whether Susie's mother has anything to do with the case. Anyway, there is no such thing as Ma in the case files sent back by Springfield City.
Leah Kai now hopes that Maria will not get involved, otherwise...
"I...I..." Mills didn't know where to start. His mind was very confused.
When William saw this, he immediately took over the conversation.
"Let's take our time and eliminate them one by one!"
William picked up a piece of witness information and handed it to Mills. "Do you think this person will become the target of the murderer?"
Mills finally calmed down a little. He looked at the information and shook his head: "He is a security guard at the school. He is a good person, but his brain is... congenital."
William nodded and immediately took out the next one.
Mills looked at it and thought for a while before shaking his head. After all, it was impossible for Mills to remember all the details of the case three years ago.
In this way, he read one by one, and he didn't stop until he came to a witness statement.
"Martha! She is a very proud woman. I remember very clearly that she was a model and a very famous one. She was very close to the crime scene that day, but she did not want to have anything to do with it.
, because she felt it would affect her career. But we got news that she heard the victim calling for help, but ignored it. When she testified in court, she said she saw nothing."
"Arrogance - the most serious sin, including disrespect for God and cruelty to others. She ignored the victim's cry for help for her own sake, and even after swearing on the Bible, she still lied. She meets the criteria!"
Kai immediately picked up the information and handed it to a policeman, asking him to check the woman's current location immediately!
"Go on, see if there is anything else?"
Mills shook his head: "I know there are only so many. I didn't pay attention to what kind of people these people were at the time. I... I only know so much."
"What about the victim? Where did he go?" Kai thought about the victim in the original case again. Maybe he was seeking revenge? But there wasn't much information about the victim in the case file, except for his name and address.
,nothing left.
"I don't know, I never saw him again after I was transferred from that case."
"check!"
…
While Kai and the others were searching for information and looking for people all night long, the Chicago media started a carnival again!
Victor’s tragic situation was exposed by reporters!
Now countless good people started to have a carnival! And to make matters worse, the bored media actually connected this case with the previous "Chicago Massacre"! Many people believed that the murderer was Hannibal!
Because this case has some similarities with previous massacre cases.
The victims were all guilty, the scene was very clean, and the methods were cruel.
Of course, this is far-fetched. Kai guessed that this must be a PR document bought by those film and television companies. There is no way. Since the last case, many film and television companies have planned to remake the Hannibal series of film and television dramas. Among other things, HBO
Netflix and Netflix have already confirmed new series, all based on Hannibal, plus new Hollywood movies.
It just so happened that during this period of time, Hannibal's popularity began to fade, and new hot spots were needed.
Regardless, this series of cases instantly attracted huge attention.
