In the detention center, the suspect is myself

Chapter 5 The so-called murderer, one question after another!

"artist?"

Li Xiang was stunned, subconsciously, an old friend who played cotton appeared in his mind.

He shook his head, looked at Xu Hao and asked with a frown.

"Didn't you just guess that the murderer was an electrician?"

Xu Hao asked, "Can't an electrician be an artist?"

Li Xiang was dumbfounded, he wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't speak.

Do electricians conflict with artists?
"Before his death, Van Gogh was also a down-and-out painter, but this status does not affect his paintings that have been passed down for generations and exhibited in palaces."

Xu Hao said slowly, Li Xiang was speechless.

"Artist?" Su Yue came to her side at this moment, she frowned, then looked at Xu Hao again, her eyebrows frowned.

"Where did you see it?"

Xu Hao didn't answer directly, but asked a few people instead.

"What's in the museum?"

Li Xiang was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know why he asked this question, but he thought for a moment and replied:

"Antiques, and unearthed cultural relics!"

Xu Hao nodded, "Not only."

"Those works of art?" Su Yue said suddenly, pointing to a modern painting beside her.

"That's right, it's a work of art!"

Xu Hao nodded again, and said:

"Remember what I said earlier? The murderer has a purpose!"

"This 'purpose' prompted him to complete the killing, and then cut off the head of the deceased to make a specimen, and finally hung it in the museum."

"Then the question is, what is the purpose of this!?"

"Why did the murderer hang the human head specimen in the museum at the risk of being discovered!?"

Why?The purpose of the murderer! ?

You must know that this kind of extremely bad case, as long as it is solved, the murderer will be sentenced to life imprisonment!
But with this level of criminal law, not only did the murderer not hide the corpse, he even hung it openly in a place like a museum! ! !
Why?Not afraid of losing your head?

Li Xiang was stunned, two questions came into his brain and circled in his mind.

When the police accepted the scene, they thought of the word "purpose", but they couldn't find the investigation point, so they didn't go down to explore the direction.

But now.
"what do you mean"

Su Yue's mind flashed, and she blurted out a sentence that shocked Li Xiang.

"The killer is showing his art, so he's an artist!!?"

artwork?
Human head specimen! ?
Li Xiang looked in horror at the empty eye sockets of the dead man's head that was hung on the wall.

"This is a work of art!?"

"He can be!" Xu Hao walked towards the museum and walked to the head of the deceased.

"Specimens are works of art in the eyes of herbarium lovers. The materials used are usually animal carcasses, ranging from butterflies to lions and elephant heads. Even some plants can be made into specimens."

Xu Hao looked up and looked at the details of the human head specimen.

"However, the murderer's aesthetic is a bit unique. He replaced a lion's head with a human head. Although it looks scary, can you deny that this is an exquisite specimen, Captain Li?"

"After cutting the whole face, there is no scratch on the muscles, a few layers of fat are treated very cleanly, the muscles are well preserved, even the back of the head."

The answer is no.

A specimen is a specimen, whether it is a human head or not.

Li Xiang hesitated to speak, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find anything to refute.

He looked at Xu Hao's eyes looking at people's heads, but silently stepped back a few steps.

After watching for a long time, Xu Hao withdrew his eyes.

If the human head is not mentioned, this specimen is perfect,

"Then, based on the current guess, let's discuss the two questions just raised."

Xu Hao pulled back everyone's thoughts.

The police officers at the scene had already gone out for lunch, and only a few police officers followed Li Xiang.

"Why did the murderer exhibit his favorite 'artwork'? What is the purpose?"

"Why did he peel off the face of the dead!?"

This time, Li Xiang didn't think any more, and blurted out:
"In order to get recognition for your artwork!?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Xiang was stunned.

Let your own head specimens be recognized by the public.
It's a bit scary to say it, just imagine, someone is holding a head in the middle of the night, chasing after you to discuss the beauty of this head.
"That's right, it's a sense of identity."

Xu Hao affirmed that the two questions had the same answer, "Skin off, I have two bold guesses here."

"One, the murderer is afraid that the identity of the deceased will be revealed, which will lead to his own identity being revealed."

"The second murderer wants to monopolize this 'sense of identity'!"

"As for peeling off the murderer's face, I personally think there is no reason to establish it. The murderer's method is skinning, not destructive tearing!"

No one present is a fool. They have thought about the first guess, and now they are thinking about the second.

The association between skinning and identity.
"You mean"

Li Xiang frowned in thought, then stretched out his fingers to a calligraphy and painting beside him.

Few people can appreciate the calligraphy and painting, the only thing they can understand is the signature of the owner of the calligraphy and painting.

"That's right, the face of the deceased is the signature of calligraphy and painting!"

Xu Hao expressed his conjectures one after another.

"Just imagine, if the victim's face is still there, then a large part of the attention on the Internet will definitely be devoted to discussing the deceased himself!"

"When the face disappears, everyone will only discuss the murderer himself!"

Xu Hao looked at the entire museum again, scanning the objects on the walls, in the cabinets, and in the exhibition glass.

"And the murderer chose the museum as the scene of the crime, which is easy to guess."

"Everyone here, tourists including security guards, will maintain a sense of appreciation and awe for everything here. After seeing things, they will immediately think and appreciate instead of panic."

"The worst thing is to take a detour. Even if you see the victim's head, you will only preconceive it as an artistic expression of some lunatic, not the scene of the crime."

"Before I called the police, the fact that hundreds of tourists and security guards did not call the police is the best evidence."

Xu Hao continued to observe the human head specimens, but unfortunately did not find any clues.

"From this, we get two characteristics about the murderer!"

"First, the murderer thinks he is an artist, and second, the murderer is eager to gain a sense of recognition, even killing people, and even distorting his spirit!"

"And in order to gain a sense of recognition, he will not hesitate to peel off the victim's face."

This is the benefit of character design deduction thinking, extract key character design, and create a complete character!

With the blessing of this golden finger, Xu Hao's thinking logic is several times clearer than usual!
"Then the question arises again, who is the murderer, in what environment, and what happened to him, that his personality and inner world became like this!?"

Question, question, question!

A series of questions caused Li Xiang's brain cells to die crazily, but he didn't care about it at this moment, instead he was extremely excited inside.

Problems are the murderer's fig leaf, the more they are solved, the more clearly the murderer will be exposed to the police!

"The opposite of what an artist should be!"

Li Xiang replied excitedly, at this moment he had a vague feeling in his heart.

Cases are being promoted crazily at a fast pace!

Solve the case within a limited time limit! ! !

"Like being an electrician, or being abused or being treated unfairly in his eyes!"

Su Yue added, after thinking about it, she spoke again, "It's not enough, this is at most obscenity, not self-sufficiency, he also needs a layer of strength and identity that can arouse the conflict between the two!"

"The way the specimens are prepared is very skillful, which means that the murderer has certain specimen techniques. I guess, the murderer is likely to be in the bottom of the family, from extravagance to frugality, and to the bottom!"

Xu Hao nodded, quite agreeing with what the two said.

"A murderer considers himself an artist, but he needs a reason to think he is an artist!"

"For example, he was an artist from the very beginning, but then his family fell into the grassroots life. He is used to the extravagant life, and the conflict between his heart and the environment will naturally increase greatly."

"And to make it look like this, it only needs to add some small contradictions!"

After solving the problem, Xu Hao is not going to let go, he wants to break the casserole!
"Now, all known clues to the murderer's speculation will be sorted out."

"The murderer is a man with a dark mental state. He used to be from a wealthy family. Now he may be an electrician. His inner world is on the verge of collapse. He is an artist who can't stand extravagance and frugality. Differences, like swans and ducks, sparrows and larks, into madness."

"So, the victim appeared. His head was cut off and made into a 'work of art', which was hung in a museum in an attempt to gain recognition and regain his identity as an artist!"

"Then here comes the problem."

After speaking, Xu Hao paused, and then asked another question.

"murderer."

"How did you get this sense of identity of returning to the identity of an artist!?"
