"Boom da la da la, dong da la..."

Zhu Jiangjiang carefully recalled the drumbeat he heard in his dream.

"It's almost like this rhythm, can you find out what song it is?"

"I know that I am an omnipotent Ultraman in your hearts, try your best."

Lan Bo shook his blue exploding head, took a big mouthful of taro balls to replenish his energy, and his slender fingers began to dance on the keyboard.

"I wrote a program that can automatically supplement and correct your tune with AI, and you can hum it twice to collect more data for me."

Zhu Jiangjiang Yiyan leaned closer to the microphone and repeated the tune from memory several times.

After the sound was recorded into the computer, Lan Bo consulted Zhu Jiangjiang, replaced the human voice with the sound of drums, and then adjusted the tune in turn with different beats.

"Which piece of music do you listen to the most similar to the music in your memory?" Lan Bo played three different drum beats.

"This section is the most similar, but the prelude should be a little longer, and there should be a pause between the two 'la'." Zhu Jiangjiang put forward his own request.

Soon, a drumbeat that was highly similar to the memory was integrated.

After Lan Bo uploaded the drum beats to the online music library for comparison, within ten seconds, a search result popped up.

"'Pu Xian Xing Vow', such a weird name?" Lan Bo muttered, and played the song casually.

This is a piece of Buddhist scripture music. After removing the main theme, the background accompaniment is obviously exactly the same as the drumbeat Zhu Jiangjiang heard in his dream.

"The song of Samantabhadra Xing Vow is adapted from traditional Buddhist classics, and it is usually played when believers perform the seven-branch offering." Lan Bo searched for the origin of the song.

In the traditional sense, the seven-branch offering is divided into seven branches, which are the prostration branch, the offering branch, the confession branch, the rejoicing branch, the turning of the Dharma wheel, the praying not to enter Nirvana branch, and the turning point branch.

"Some believers believe that through the seven-branch offering practice method, karma can be eliminated and merits can be perfected. It is the fastest way to achieve personal success, and it is also an important door to enter the realm of saints." Zhu Jiangjiang explained to Shi Chong.

After learning about the Qizhi confession in detail, Zhu Jiangjiang finally understood why the place where the corpses were dumped in the hunter case changed, and finally understood the murderer's ultimate purpose for committing a series of murders.

"Tibetan Buddhism has a method of worshiping Bodhisattvas. Seven things are made into a set, corresponding to the seven offerings. The order is water, water, flowers, incense, lamps, tea, and rice."

This corresponds to the change in the location of the hunter case.

"The note sent along with the rattle is actually a part of the song Puxian's Vows. Its function is to remind us what stage the murderer has reached in the seven-branch offering."

Zhu Jiangjiang printed out the numbered notation of the song, and it can be seen that the numbers on each note can be found on the numbered notation.

"It can be understood that the seven-branch offering is to achieve a certain purpose of self-improvement through worshiping the Bodhisattva."

"From this point of view, is it possible that the murderer has some physical illness? So he hopes to be cured through sacrifice?" Zhu Jiangjiang frowned slightly.

"The murderer should be a superstitious person. It is possible that he had visited temples many times before sacrificing his life." Shi Chong pondered.

"Lanbo, search out the large and small temples near Blue Mountain and send them to Lin Zihan, and ask him and Uncle Da to stop by after checking the wooden houses, starting with the ones with the most incense."

"Pay attention to such people. Males between the ages of 45 and [-], who have a background in slaughtering, are physically fit, have an easy-going appearance, and have hidden diseases that cannot be cured." Shi Chong sorted out the profile of the suspect.

"Got it, arrange a special task for Xiao Linzi immediately." Lan Bo smiled and gestured that there was no problem.

When Zhu Jiangjiang returned to the mortuary, the Xianghai police just sent the body of the third victim over.

With the help of Dalong, Zhu Jiangjiang took the corpse out of the body bag and placed it on the operating table.

Every wound on the body is very similar to the first two victims, the only difference is that there are more knife wounds after death, and this time the arrow wound is not on the shoulder, but on the thigh.

Since it was not soaked in the river water, the appearance of the corpse was still relatively good.

Corpse spots are dark purple and do not fade when pressed.The skin of the corpse was thin and blackened, but the hair did not fall out, and the apparent death time was about one to two days.

"However, the body had been refrigerated by the suspect, so the actual time of death should be far more than one or two days."

The forensic certificate has been successfully obtained, and the current autopsy process Zhu Jiangjiang can completely operate independently, but she still consults Yang Bolin's opinion habitually.

"The skin is black, and the internal organs are rotting faster than the external ones. It has indeed been refrigerated." Yang Bolin nodded.

Just as he was talking, Zhu Jiangjiang suddenly noticed something unusual about this female corpse.

In addition to the unique rancid smell on the corpse, there was also an inexplicable foul smell.

"Do you think this victim smells strange?" Zhu Jiangjiang looked at Dalong.

"Sister, which corpse doesn't smell strange? Your words are like asking me why durian doesn't smell bad." Dalong smiled strangely.

"I'm old, and my nose is not as sharp as that of young people." Yang Bolin also shook his head with a smile.

Zhu Jiangjiang didn't think that she was delusional, she deliberately walked out of the mortuary to breathe, and then returned to the female corpse.

This time it smelled more clearly, and the stench was like some kind of poultry.

Considering the possible occupation of the suspect, Zhu Jiangjiang felt that his conjecture was likely to be true.

But the question is, how to prove it?

If the suspect had put the victim in the refrigerated truck in which he delivered the goods, what clues would the victim have left on him?

Zhu Jiangjiang walked around the corpse and set his eyes on the long hair of the female corpse.

She found a sterilized fine-toothed comb, and carefully combed the long hair of the female corpse, and at the same time used a tray to connect it underneath.

After a while, a pile of gravel, skin flakes, a few hairs and some invisible debris fell out of the tray.

Zhu Jiangjiang carefully packed the tray with an evidence bag, and threw the comb into it together.

"Can we find out anything like this?" Dalong asked suspiciously.

"You can try it. Analyzing the composition of the sand is also very important for studying the places where the victims have been."

Yang Bolin could tell that Zhu Jiangjiang wasn't just doing it for the gravel. After all, the victim was brutally murdered and thrown into the flower field after running away barefoot. His whole body was covered with different kinds of dirt.

The soil that can be collected has been submitted for inspection before, and it is not meaningful to study the gravel on the hair.

He guessed that Zhu Jiangjiang's operation should be for other particles that might remain in the hair.

"I want to see if there is a chance to find out the type of this refrigerated truck through refrigeration, and check whether there are any DNA left by other organisms by the way." Zhu Jiangjiang smiled shyly.

Yang Bolin nodded in agreement and did not ask Zhu Jiangjiang how he deduced that the place where the murderer hid his body was a refrigerated truck.

After all, Zhu Jiangjiang followed up this case all the way, and naturally only she knew the progress best.
