Beibao looked at the bloody scene in front of him in shock. In fact, such scenes are rare in Gotham, because the young man named Dick was almost evenly distributed on the forest land in front of him. He was torn apart too much.
Broken.
Putting aside the soft skin and internal organs, human bones are quite difficult to break. Without professional tools, it is very difficult to break the bones into pieces like this. Is it possible that this murderer still carries one with him?
Wood chipper?
Beibao slowly narrowed his eyes. He thought about it carefully and felt something was wrong.
The body was highly damaged, so it was impossible to determine the specific time of death, but judging from the coagulation of the blood, it should have been no more than two hours since the body fragments were scattered here.
But there is a problem. People will die when they are killed, and they will definitely scream before they die. Even if the suspect killed Dick first and then broke him to pieces, then when he started killing people, Dick would definitely resist and run away.
If he couldn't run away, he would shout for help because he knew the camp was very close.
But Bei Bat did not hear any screams. In other words, the young man who was killed did not die after Bei Bat returned to the camp. His death time may have coincided with the time when Bei Bat left the camp to explore the creek.
Already.
But there is another question. During the time when Dick was injured, the camp was not completely deserted. Let’s not mention the group of bad men and women who ran to the other side of the camp for unknown reasons. Didn’t Dr. Schiller hear it in the camp?
Call for help?
Beibat turned to look at Schiller, and Schiller obviously understood what he meant. He slowly shook his head and said, "No, I didn't hear any sound, not even the sound of fighting."
Bei Bat immediately frowned, which means there may be two situations. The first is that the murderer is so strong that he can kill with one strike and directly decapitates the opponent, leaving the opponent without a chance to make a sound. The second is that the murderer is killed.
The devil used drugs and the like, kidnapped Dick to another place and killed him brutally.
"The second possibility is higher." Batman suddenly said.
Beibao was stunned. Did the two of them communicate with each other? This should be the other person who was exactly the same as he had guessed. After all, they were both Batman.
The amazing thing is that the female agent named Natasha and Dr. Schiller seemed to understand Batman's meaning and knew what the second possibility he mentioned was, and Natasha took the initiative to propose it.
"You returned to the camp earlier, which means that the murderer will not have a long time to do something and dump the body. So if he chooses to kidnap, it means that his base will not be far away from here, otherwise he will not be able to make it in time.
A round trip."
"Why did he throw the body back to this place and make it like this..." Schiller put his hand under his nose, seeming to be disgusted with the smell of blood. He shook his head and said, "He could have just washed the body away with the water."
Walk."
"Don't forget, doctor, this is not a murder that occurs in a civilized society." Batman stepped forward and picked up a fragment of his uniform, pinched the edge of the fragment hard, his voice became deeper, and he said: "
What the murderer wants to do is not to destroy the body and eliminate traces and escape legal punishment, but to use every method to make us feel angry and afraid. He is here to torture us."
"I think we should walk forward." Natasha looked into the distance and said: "While it's still bright, we might be able to find the murderer's home in this direction. I guess it will be a relatively obvious Orion hut.
."
Both Batmans nodded and agreed to this statement, but at this time, the Batman of the main universe said: "We also need one person to stay at the camp to protect our survival supplies and fire, so who will stay?"
Schiller thought for a while and then said: "It is not safe to stay alone. With our physical strength weakened, we may not have the ability to face the murderer alone. It is best to work together as two people."
Beibao also began to think about it. In fact, it is difficult to say which one is more dangerous: staying in the camp or going out to explore, because the murderer may be in the camp, or he may use Dick's body as bait to lure them over and then raid the camp and plunder their fire.
, so as to put them at a disadvantage at night.
"Let's do this. All three of you have relatively strong investigative abilities, and I can go back to prepare food, and you can just choose one of you to stay." Schiller stepped forward and said.
"Then I'll stay." Natasha sighed softly and said, "I am an agent, not a detective. You are better at finding clues."
"Although a little superstitious, I trust my intuition." Natasha turned her head and looked ahead again and said: "The murderer is probably not in his base now. This is a good time to collect clues and find his weaknesses.
If there is an opportunity, it is best to find two efficient people to avoid wasting precious opportunities."
What she said is reasonable and reasonable. If we can really break through the murderer's empty door now, it will have to be done by two Batmans, because in addition to finding clues, they might also be able to do some damage. This requires the skills of a detective.
The mind also requires strong physical strength. There is no combination better than two Batmans.
The two Batmans looked at each other, finally nodded, and they turned and walked deeper into the woods.
After they left, Schiller and Natasha smiled at each other and turned back to the camp.
The two Batmans walked one behind the other, with a tacit understanding that one of them focused on the left and the other on the right. They walked forward but did not find any footprints until they could see the shadow of a building in the gap in the dense forest.
They immediately lowered their bodies and hid behind a thick bush, observing the situation in the hut.
It seems that the house is not big, with only one floor. It is a very typical wooden house in the forest, but it has a relatively open yard. From this angle, you can't see clearly what is in the yard, but you can just see part of the house.
Window.
The windows almost gave an unobstructed view of the scene inside the house, but there were still some places in the corners that could not be seen, but Beibai stared straight ahead and lowered his voice and said: "He's not here, I think we can go in."
After speaking, he moved his steps lightly and walked forward quickly, with Batman following closely behind, and the two of them arrived at the base of the wall behind the wooden house one after another.
Beibat pulled off his mask and removed the extremely conspicuous bat ears before raising his head and looking inside. As expected, the room was empty, with no sign of any human presence.
They walked around to the front yard again and found that it was a small logging camp, but it was not surprising. Living in such a jungle, the most important thing was to keep warm.
Anyone who has used a fireplace knows how resistant wood is to burning. It is possible that an entire spacious warehouse full of firewood is barely enough for one winter, so in autumn, you have to go out to cut firewood almost every day.
Also chop the firewood and store it.
Bei Bat lowered his hands and looked around, as if he was looking for something. Suddenly, he stopped and walked towards the other side of the wooden house. He opened the black tarpaulin and saw that it was indeed a broken machine with blood foam on it.
Wooden machine.
Seeing the bone fragments inside, Beibao sighed. He completely pulled off the tarp, and then began to look around for possible clues.
He saw Batman walking towards the house, but soon turned back, stood at the door and said to Batman: "You should come and see this place."
Beibat put down the tarpaulin in his hand and walked into the house with Batman one after another. It was indeed a fairly typical hunter's cabin. There was a deer head hanging above the fireplace facing the entrance, and in front of the fireplace was an animal skin rug.
and two sofas.
The dining room and kitchen are two-in-one. The island is on the right side, and the door to the bedroom is on the left. After walking in, there is a bed. The pillows and quilts are also made of animal skins. From the corner of the bed exposed under the quilt,
, this should be a handmade wooden bed.
Beiba walked to the fireplace and took a look and said, "These are new firewood. The other party must have just left."
Walking out of the door on the side of the kitchen, you come to the tool room and warehouse. The wood chipper is placed outside the warehouse window, and the inside of the warehouse is full of hunting equipment.
It included tripwires, ropes, carts, various animal traps, and a lot of shotgun bullets, but unfortunately I didn't see any thermal weapons, but there were two pretty good axes.
Bei Bat picked up one of them and weighed it in his hand, then frowned slightly. He turned back and looked at the bed in the bedroom through the two doors, thoughtfully.
Batman stopped in front of a hanging board, and hanging on it was a bait-trigger bear trap, the kind commonly seen in cartoons that puts a piece of cheese in the middle and snaps shut.
Beibao also came over. He found that there were four nails on the hanging board. Logically speaking, four clips should be hung on it, but now there were only three left. Judging from the dust accumulation, the last clip should be
It was just taken away.
Then they discovered that a bundle of wires was missing from the box containing the trip wires, and there were signs that the springs and parts had been tampered with.
"It is very likely that he made a pressure trap." Beibao guessed: "Through the pressure of someone tripping, something is launched. The most likely thing is a metal spike, or a sharp wood that he whittled himself.
stick."
"Typical horror movie plot," Batman concluded.
Suddenly, Beibao seemed to realize something, and he said: "Wait a minute, isn't it the most typical horror movie plot for us to separate into two groups? Isn't this giving the murderer a chance?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a faint cry of killing in the distance, and the two Batmans immediately rushed out of the door and hurried back without stopping.
A "bang" gunshot immediately made the atmosphere tense to the extreme. The two Batmans could no longer spare their energy and ran back to the camp as fast as possible.
There was a faint smell of blood in the wind, indicating that no one was seriously injured, but they saw that Schiller was bandaging Natasha with strips of cloth torn from the bat cloak.
There was an obvious graze wound on Natasha's upper arm. There was no bleeding due to the burning. Schiller was helping her wipe the edges of the wound and peel off the charred skin tissue.
"What's going on? Have you seen him?" Beiba slightly asked anxiously.
Schiller shook his head and said, "Natasha hit a pheasant with a stone. I planned to prepare the stew for drinking, but it would be too wasteful to use bottled pure water, so she planned to go to the stream to get some water."
"Then I saw his figure behind the bushes." Natasha sighed, then took a breath of pain and said, "He had a gun in his hand and a long log on his back.
Stick, and something hanging on his waist, I guess it’s a animal trap.”
"He spotted me first, and I immediately hid behind a tree, but I didn't expect him to shoot directly. Fortunately, his shooting skills were not very accurate, and the bullet grazed my arm and flew past."
"Did you see his appearance clearly?"
"I was in a bad light position and couldn't see too clearly, but this guy was very tall, probably very strong, and very alert."
