Chapter 198: Three consecutive trials

If Eden can become the director of the Public Security Bureau, according to his temperament, he will definitely not tolerate the existence of moths inside once he has the ability. At that time, there will be a major shake-up of the Public Security Bureau, so that this institution that is supposed to protect the people will be rejuvenated.

meteorological.

Unfortunately, this matter is also a bit far away.

The current director, Adel, is at the top of his game and has high prestige.

Apart from Adel, there are also several officials with higher rank than Eden.

The only thing he can do now is to help Eden catch the murderer brilliantly while completing his own mission, so as to accumulate political achievements for him and lay the foundation for his advancement.

Deputy Director Jelle died, and there is still a vacant deputy director position.

Eden's outstanding performance may not necessarily occupy this spot.

"Hello, do you know where Deputy Eden is?" He came to the door of Eden's office and knocked, but received no response. Linn had no choice but to ask the passing sheriff about his whereabouts.

"Deputy Eden, he should be on Crean Street now, right?" the sheriff said uncertainly, "Are you?"

"I am the consultant he invited to help solve the eleven o'clock ghost case." Lin En introduced herself, "Then do you know when he went there?"

"I just saw him while having lunch."

It seems that Eden only rested for three or four hours.

"Okay, thank you." Lin En was about to go to Kling Street to meet Eden, but as soon as he took a few steps, his stomach made a sound, "Wait a minute, I have another question."

"What's wrong?"

"Is the cafeteria still open?"

Under the leadership of the Sheriff, who looked suspicious and refrained from asking, "Are you here to get some food?" Lin En got a meal in the cafeteria as he wished.

The food at the Public Security Bureau is good, with a mix of meat and vegetables, and the food is generous and filling.

After solving her stomach problem, Linn's energy returned to full strength. She immediately left the Sheriff's Department and found a private carriage to go to Clint Street.

The Clint Street case moved quickly.

When the coachman heard that Linn was going to Clint Street, he immediately refused to take him, explaining that there was a demon wandering on Clint Street and that people who passed by would be tainted with bad luck. He also dissuaded him from going there unless necessary.

But fortunately, the devil cannot defeat money.

After Lin En gave him the double fare, the coachman changed his attitude and happily reminded him to sit tight and let's walk!

Twenty minutes later, the private carriage stopped in Cline Street. Linn paid the fare and walked to the sheriff on duty at the entrance to inquire about Eden's location.

These sheriffs all knew that Eden had hired a consultant to help solve the case, and they enthusiastically took Linn to Eden.

At this time, Eden was interrogating in front of a certain house.

"...Okay, if anything happens in the future, please report it to us in time. This will be good for every resident on Kling Street." Eden ended the interrogation and looked at Linn who came to find him, "Are you awake?

"

"Obviously." Lynn shrugged.

"I just happened to have some progress, come." Eden took Lin En to a deserted place and showed Lin En the report handed in by his subordinates at noon. "We have worked hard these days. We have investigated suspicious things from three aspects."

The goals are all recorded in it.”

"Hmm." Linn started reading.

First is the investigation report of yesterday's first guess.

After careful investigation.

The Public Security Bureau confirmed that the relationship chains of the five deceased people did not overlap.

The murderer had grudges with five people at the same time, and the possibility of revenge killings was officially ruled out.

Next is the investigation report on the second conjecture.

In terms of interviewing people living alone, they did not gain much, and the investigative methods used to identify the murderer were also very clever and quiet.

However, Eden asked his subordinates to visit the hospital and check the information, and found out several residents who had been diagnosed with mental illness by the hospital, or who were considered a bit withdrawn and eccentric by their neighbors.

Currently, these people have been taken to the Public Security Bureau for investigation.

Finally, there is the investigation report on the third conjecture.

It's a pity in this regard.

Lynn was originally the most hopeful about this possibility, but a large number of people living alone moved out of Kerin Street, and there were no obvious beneficiaries.

It is true that after rumors of 'eleven o'clock ghosts', 'devils', 'ominous omens' and other rumors, house prices in Clint Street plummeted, and many residents were selling their houses and furniture in an attempt to move to a safer area.

But similarly, businessmen who are not on Clint Street are also very afraid of these strange events and dare not rush to buy at the bottom.

Could it be that the truth lies in the second conjecture.

Is this all the work of a highly intelligent psychopath?

Lin En couldn't help but feel a little confused.

But he didn't panic.

With [Peeper's Eye] and [Perception] around, he can narrow down the target a lot even if he uses clumsy methods.

After killing so many people, the corruption value must be very high.

Gather those with high depravity values ​​together and belittle the murderer in front of them.

Whoever raises the highest hostility at this time will have the result.

"How is it?" Eden saw Linn finishing flipping through the report, "My intuition tells me that the murderer is among these people with psychological problems."

"Let's go back and take a look first." Lin En decided to use his extraordinary power to conduct further verification.

"Prepare a car." Eden told his subordinates, "Also, you continue to visit people living alone, and don't let down your guard."

"yes."

"yes."

Soon, Linn, who had just left the Public Security Bureau not long ago, followed Eden back to the Public Security Bureau.

"Where are the people?" Eden walked into the Public Security Bureau majestically.

Lynn, who was following Eden, could clearly feel his confidence in winning.

"They are all in the interrogation room, waiting for you to come." A police officer led the two of them to three interrogation rooms.

"One for each room?" Linn asked.

"Yes." replied the Sheriff.

"Follow me." Eden entered the first interrogation room first.

Lin followed in and used the [Peeper's Eyes] to look at the thin man who was handcuffed on the interrogation chair.

Just looking at this figure is enough.

I guess it would be difficult to deal with an old lady.

As expected, this thin man with psychological problems had a corruption value of only [30].

With such a low depravity value, the possibility of killing someone is extremely slim.

The most important thing is that Lin En learned from the files that the five deceased were not evil people, they were just ordinary people.

There is absolutely no chivalrous act of killing bad guys.

There is no need to wash it by nature.

As long as these five people are killed, the corruption value will be conservatively estimated to be above [150].

But to be sure, after Eden asked some basic questions to the suspect, Lynn deliberately belittled the murderer in front of the thin man.

The thin man was very introverted, his head lowered and his voice was like a whisper.

After listening to Lin En's words, there was no hostility.

"This is not it." Lin En wasted no time and eliminated this person's suspicion.

Although Eden didn't have high expectations based on the opponent's figure, he was not as sure as Lynn: "Why?"

"Let's talk after reading everything." Lin En couldn't give a reasonable explanation for a while.

"Okay." Eden basically felt that there was no need for this person to ask further.

The two came to the second interrogation room.

The suspect in the second interrogation room was mediocre in stature and could only barely meet the standards of a murderer.

But his corruption value is only [10].

He also seemed to be unconscious. It was difficult for him to give a normal reply when Eden asked him basic questions.

"Are you just pretending?" a subordinate whispered.

"It's not like that." Eden had seen too much, and he could tell at a glance whether he was pretending or not, but there were very few people who could deceive him.

When Lin En saw this, he used the old method again, belittling the murderer to nothing in front of the suspect.

The suspect did not show any hostility, but instead peed his pants stupidly.

"Tell them, I want people with psychological problems, not fools!" Eden scolded his subordinates and angrily went to the third interrogation room.

The people in the third interrogation room finally looked a little interesting.

This man is a strong man, twenty-seven years old, unemployed, he inherited a building from his father, and he usually collects rent.

Moreover, the fourth person who drowned died in the building next door to him.

He was brought here because he suffered from schizophrenia and sometimes had difficulty distinguishing between reality and imagination.

"It's possible..." Eden became excited again, glanced at Linn, sat down and started interrogating him.

The suspect still seems normal at the moment, and can answer clearly and logically no matter what questions Eden asks.

Lin En sat next to him and looked at the depravity value first.

【100】

Not high.

It didn't meet his expectation of the murderer.

However, considering that this person suffered from schizophrenia, he might not be able to control himself when committing the crime, which resulted in a low depravity value, so Lin En continued to observe.

After Eden finished asking, he still denounced the murderer's stupidity in front of him and laughed at the clumsy way the murderer committed the crime.

The result was a huge disappointment.

This man didn't show any hostility at all.

Still considering that this person suffers from schizophrenia, committing murder may not be his original intention, and he may not even know that he has committed murder, and he has no idea of ​​this in a rational state.

Linn chose to continue investigating.

"We now have the evidence that you committed the crime! Do you still want to quibble?!" After asking for more than ten minutes to no avail, a somewhat impatient Eden resorted to bluffing in an attempt to destroy the suspect's psychological defense, "Confess earlier.

!It’s good for you!”

"I have never done it! How could I kill someone! You can't discriminate against people with mental illness, can you? I have plenty of money, why would I kill someone? Now people in Kerin Street are panicked, and house prices are falling again and again. Tenants

They all ran away, and I am also a victim!" the suspect argued.

"There's something you didn't explain. If you say it yourself, the nature is completely different from what we found out."

Anyone with a depravity score of over 100 has done more or less something that is despised by others.

Lin En currently dare not say that the other party is the murderer, but he is certain that the other party is not a good bird.

"I--"

"Dong dong dong."

A police officer knocked on the door of the interrogation room.

"Enter."

"Deputy Eden." A Sheriff came in with a suitcase, "We searched his home and found this..."

"Don't open it!" The suspect was shocked when he saw the familiar box.
