The Deputy of the Sheriff's Department is right in front of you.
Is there any need to endure the injury and go out to find the target?
Lin En decided to inquire from Eden. If there was a case from the Public Security Bureau that met the conditions, he would just treat it as a task for tomorrow.
"The case...you..." Eden said in a long voice, "Are you okay? I mean your body."
"My injury is not as serious as you think, otherwise it would not be possible for me to be discharged from the hospital so quickly." Linn deliberately moved his body, feeling a little bit of pain, but did not show it in front of Eden.
"I really hope you can help me sometimes, but..."
"But what?" Lynn was curious about Eden's concerns.
Eden touched his chin with one hand: "On the one hand, the case is very difficult, and on the other hand, it is your physical problem."
"My health is fine, but the case is difficult. Maybe I can really help." Lin En tried hard to sell herself, "And it will actually be safer if I stay with you. Those who want revenge, no matter what
Even if you are arrogant, it is impossible for you to do something in front of one of your lieutenants."
"It makes sense..." Eden still valued Linn's ability, otherwise he would not have extended an invitation to him.
"Tell me about the case?" Lynn filled Eden's water glass.
"This case is a bit weird..." Eden took another sip of water and said with a puzzled look, "I have seen countless miscellaneous cases, but this is really the first time I have seen it..."
That's what you said!
"Let's talk about it." Lynn patiently waited for Eden to get to the point.
"About ten days ago, one person started to die mysteriously every two days on Kling Street." Eden told about a case that is currently troubling him. "The residents and us thought it was a coincidence at first, but from the third person to the fourth person
Personally, this coincidence is too much, and the time of death of these people is also very close, basically around 11 o'clock in the evening."
"Strange death? How strange?"
"The person who died on the first day was a retired teacher. This old lady suddenly jumped out of the window of her fourth-story house at 11 o'clock in the night." Eden said, "The person who died on the third day was an apprentice who was working in the bakery. A young man sneaked out of his home at 11 o'clock in the night, returned to the bakery and stabbed himself in the chest with a knife. The person who died on the fifth day was an accountant. She was a little late from get off work that day. , I just returned to Kling Street at 11 o'clock, and fell into the sewer that was in disrepair. There was a very obvious warning sign next to the sewer, which is generally impossible to miss..."
Linn crossed his arms across his chest: "In other words, these people died of various suicides?"
"It looks like this, but it's too wrong. It's as if everything was premeditated by them. He will die today, and you will die the day after tomorrow..." Eden stared at the water glass, "The problem is, after our investigation, currently
There is no connection between the five people who died, and even if there is a connection, it is very weak."
"Have you ever investigated whether these people had any abnormal behavior in the period before their death?"
"After investigation, their family, friends, and colleagues all said no, and they found their suicide extremely unbelievable." Eden said, "So I suspect that they did not commit suicide, but were deliberately faked by an unknown murderer.
Caused suicide."
"It's possible." Linn nodded slightly.
Eden explained the measures he took: "Three consecutive people died at 11 o'clock that night after two days apart. I began to impose martial law on Colin Street on the seventh day. There was no movement that night, but on the second
The next day, the landlord of an apartment found that a resident had drowned alive in the bathtub of his bathroom... After preliminary determination, the resident's time of death was very close to 11 o'clock in the evening on the seventh day."
"Have all the residents of the apartment been investigated? Where is the room of the deceased?" Linn asked.
Eden sensed a hint of credibility from Lynn's inquiry: "The surrounding residents have investigated, and they all said they didn't hear anything, didn't see anything, and didn't notice anything strange that night. As for the deceased's room, no traces were found.
The deceased... seemed to have really drowned himself..."
"Did the deceased have no family?"
"No."
Linn grabbed a clue: "Where are the other deceased people? Did they also live alone?"
"Yes, is there anything noteworthy about this?"
Lin En thought: "It may lead to many points, but the conditions are not yet mature. But at the very least, we can be sure that if there is a murderer, then his target range is the lonely people living on Kling Street. Let's talk about the second chapter.
Five dead people."
"At that time, I concluded that there must be a murderer and that these people were not committing suicide, so I investigated the apartment in detail and closely monitored the residents inside and the people who came in and out that night. But on the ninth day...at 11 o'clock in the evening,
There is still a chef who lives alone and died. He choked to death on a biscuit while reading a newspaper and eating biscuits at home... This is too..."
"It's so bizarre." Lynn finished sighing for Eden.
The death of the fifth person can also prove that these people did not commit suicide.
Deliberately choking yourself with cookies?
Unheard of.
"Today is the tenth day. According to the rules, someone will die on Klin Street at eleven o'clock tomorrow night." Eden was worried. "Now people in Klin Street believe that these people did not commit suicide, saying that there is a '
The Eleven O'clock Ghost', it will claim a life every two days..."
The eleven o'clock ghost.
Quite an apt name.
Lin En was not in a hurry to share any more opinions, but started to think about it.
Now it is certain that none of these five people died of suicide or accident.
So how did the murderer manage to make one person die by suicide or accidental death every two days?
Especially when the constable intervenes later, it can be completed on time within the limited time under their watch.
After fighting against the same kind, Lin En also took the same kind into consideration.
Could it be that there is some kind of psychopathic person who has exchanged relevant abilities and kills people every two days just to satisfy his own abnormal psychology?
This possibility cannot be ruled out.
But if they are really the same kind, it's not easy to judge the level.
Because the murder times were: January 8th, January 10th, January 12th, January 14th, and January 16th.
The recent mission times of [Awakened One] and [Transcendent] are:
January 5th, January 9th, January 13th, January 17th.
January 4th, January 11th, January 18th.
The mission time did not coincide with the murder time.
That is to say, if it is really done by the same kind of person, then the level of this kind of person may be [Awakened One], or it may be [Transcendent].
Of course, it may also be a higher level...
I hope they are not the same kind, or the same kind within their control.
