Crime Profiler 2

Chapter 33 The Way of Enlightenment (1)

"Criminal Profiler, written in English as Criminal Profiler." Zheng Yan wrote the word "Criminal Profiler" on the blackboard at the China Criminal Police Academy, and continued, "It is a special profession that originated in the 20s and received professional training. Side Through the analysis of the modus operandi, scene layout, criminal characteristics, etc., the writers outline the criminal mentality of the criminal, so as to further predict his race, gender, age, occupational background, appearance characteristics, personality characteristics and even the next move. , so that the police can narrow the scope of the search and stop the continuation of criminal behavior in time. Many serial murder cases in history were solved with the assistance of criminal profilers. The most famous criminal profiling agency in the world is the Behavior Analysis Section affiliated to the FBI. It is the BAU that often appears when you watch American dramas, and its full name is Behavioral Analysis Unit."

"We said that this is a very special profession. Can any of you tell me what is so special about it?" Zheng Yan wandered around the classroom, looking at the children who were thinking hard under the podium, with an expression on his face. A satisfied smile.

A month ago, Tang Hegong officially announced his retirement, stepped down from the position of team leader Z, and no longer held any position in the Criminal Investigation Bureau.

The Director of Criminal Investigation once wanted to hire him back and let him continue to lead the Z team to carry out the work, but he refused.

"I can't play a big role in handling the case. Most of the time, I do some coordination work. Those few children can do this kind of thing by themselves." Tang Hegong said, "Those children should also be given some opportunities to exercise. As for me, an old man, I’m going to retire.”

"So, who will be the leader of Team Z?" asked the Chief of Criminal Investigation.

"Du Li." After thinking for a while, Tang Hegong gave an answer that surprised the Director of Criminal Investigation.

"Why not Zheng Yan?" the director asked, "Zheng Yan is the main force of Team Z. Wouldn't it be better if he led Team Z?"

"That guy Zheng Yan..." Tang Hegong took a cigarette from the director's desk, lit it, took a puff, and said, "He is too emotional, and the case of Mu Xue is a good example. He may appear in the investigation of the case." We will absolutely not allow this to happen because of personal feelings and choose means that are independent of the law."

"Moreover," Tang Hegong sighed, "Zheng Yan's physical condition is not as good as it looks. After brain surgery, he needs to take medicine to maintain his body's functions. It is not clear to what extent his body has been damaged. He also Too fond of digging into the horns, he will not give up if he can't figure out a problem. This makes him focus too much on the case itself during the investigation of the case, ignoring some other factors."

Tang Hegong did not explain this other factor, but he believed that the Chief of Criminal Investigation could understand it.

"But Du Li is completely different. She used to work in an agency, and she is much better at dealing with interpersonal relationships than Zheng Yan. She is also calmer than Zheng Yan, and knows when to do things." Tang Hegong said, "Although she is not an excellent detective. member, but she will be an excellent organizer and coordinator. In particular, her understanding of Zheng Yan will help her control Zheng Yan well."

In this way, Zheng Yan, who was most likely to take over the position of Team Z leader after Tang Hegong retired, lost the election inexplicably.Du Li, who had never considered succeeding Tang Hegong, became the leader of Team Z.

"The director must have made a mistake." Seeing the appointment letter, Du Li was stunned.

But Zheng Yan did not show any surprise at this result: "Being the team leader not only makes the work more tiring, but also the salary is still so little."

"No, you are more suitable than me." Du Li pulled Zheng Yan to find the director and Tang Hegong, but at this time Tang Hegong had already left Beijing.

The chief told them that Tang Hegong accepted the offer from the Criminal Police Academy and became a teacher of criminal behavior analysis.

At the same time, the director gave them a letter of appointment, which was the letter of appointment from the Criminal Police Academy to invite them to be guest lecturers.

"Old Tang asked you to attend a class at the Criminal Police Academy every month," said the chief.

Du Li was stunned again, and immediately understood that Tang Hegong hoped to find more people like Zheng Yan.

"Old Crow Tang, you won't let me stop when you leave." Zheng Yan smiled wryly at the letter of appointment.

"That classmate, tell me." Zheng Yan withdrew his thoughts, pointed to a boy in the corner of the last row, and said.

That was a very special child, his face was blushing, and he had never dared to meet Zheng Yan's eyes since the beginning of class, but Zheng Yan could see the blazing heat from his occasional glances.

He is timid, fearful, but full of thirst for knowledge.

Zheng Yan knew that he must have had a difficult childhood, encountered unimaginable setbacks, and then fell into a deep inferiority complex. Such a person needs the teacher's encouragement most.

"It's okay, it's okay to say something wrong." Zheng Yan said with a smile.

To his surprise, the boy's face flushed red, he stood up suddenly, and ran out of the classroom without saying a word.

"What's going on here?" Zheng Yan looked at the students who were still in the classroom in astonishment.

"Teacher, he is not a student in our class, and we don't know him." A girl said.

Zheng Yan suddenly realized that he was here for class.It's really rare that there is such a thing as rubbing class now.He smiled, shook his head, and shook the episode out of his mind.

"The reason why this profession is special is that it looks at cases from a different perspective." Zheng Yan said, "In the past, the process of solving a case was to observe the scene, dissect the corpse, conduct scientific tests, investigate suspects, The proof of presence, etc., seems to have formed a specific procedure. But these are all considering the murderer from the perspective of a third person. And this perspective has its inevitable disadvantages, we can easily fall into the trap set by the murderer and be caught The murderer leads the way, or is held back by his own preconceived ideas. But the profiler starts from another angle, that is, thinks from the perspective of the murderer, makes himself the protagonist of the case, and imagines what would happen if he is the murderer. Do, why do you want to do this, analyze the murderer's psychology step by step. At this time, the profiler changes from passive to active. Then, "portrait" the murderer. Narrow down the police's investigation scope and strive to capture the murderer before the next move. They should be brought to justice. Especially when facing serial killers, profilers can give full play to their own advantages."

"In short, if you know the murderer like you know yourself, then the murderer will have nowhere to hide. This is the charm of criminal profiling." Zheng Yan put a full stop on his exposition, smiled again, and said, "It can be said that every criminal profiler is a clever criminal at the same time. I hope that everyone in the future will be an excellent policeman, not a criminal. Being an opponent with a criminal profiler is the last thing I want to see in my life Arrived."

There was a burst of laughter in the classroom, but Zheng Yan frowned. He saw Du Li standing outside the door of the classroom with an anxious expression on his face. Seeing him looking at him, he beckoned.

"This is the end of today's class. If you are interested, you can look up the information when you go back. If you don't want to read boring texts, you can find a few American dramas to watch, such as "Criminal Minds". Although there are exaggerated elements in it, the overall It's pretty good." He said, and walked off the podium.

"What's wrong?" Zheng Yan asked.

"S city, kill the door, the victim was stuffed into a plush toy, please help us." Du Li said succinctly.

Zheng Yan frowned: "Any clues?"

"It is said that some clues have been found, but they are all broken now." Du Li said.

"Teacher, can you sign for me?" A timid voice interrupted Zheng Yan's thinking.He looked up in astonishment, and saw the boy who had run away from class standing in front of him, with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of expectation.

"Not now, the teacher has more important things to do." Zheng Yan, who was immersed in thinking, refused without hesitation, turned and walked outside the building.

He didn't notice that the boy's face was mixed with disappointment and sadness, the hands behind his back were clenched tightly, and a faint flame was about to move in his eyes.

Longteng Garden is a well-known high-end apartment in S City. It is famous for its high-rise residences, butler-style property management and 24-hour all-round video surveillance security.

Xiao Li is the captain of the security team of Longteng Garden, and he has been a little restless in recent days.About three days ago, there were some strange people outside the community. They did not enter the community, but just walked around in front of the gate, staring at everyone entering and leaving the community with gloomy eyes like snakes.

The owner complained several times, and the security guards expelled a group of people. It won't be long before another group of people will replace them.Xiao Li reported to the police. After investigating the identities of these people, the police said that they had no problems.

Who are they?what are they looking forWhat kind of secrets are hidden in this community?
Xiao Li doesn't know, but he knows that if these people are not resolved, his monthly salary of more than 2000 yuan will be troublesome.

However, he has no better way than to strengthen patrols.

Glancing at the clock on the wall, it was already two o'clock in the morning.Xiao Li cursed unluckily, he had already fallen asleep at this time in the past.But since those people came, he had to go out to patrol around this time.

Xiao Li put on his clothes and equipment, and patrolled along the possible routes for outsiders to enter.Fortunately for him, there was no sign of outsiders entering for the time being.

What are those people trying to do?Xiao Li thought angrily, maybe he should find a few brothers on the road to teach these people a lesson.

With a whoosh, a gust of wind rushed down from the top of his head.

Xiao Li took a step back subconsciously.

Bang, a huge plush toy fell in front of him.

Xiao Li felt a chill down his back. If he hadn't taken that step back in time, he might have been hit by this plush toy.

He couldn't help but feel complacent about his quick response, and then he was filled with anger.He was about to raise his head to question a few words, but the sense of danger enveloped him again, and he decisively moved a few steps sideways, leaving the place where he was standing.

Bang bang.

Another two plush toys fell from the sky.

Xiao Li couldn't help frowning.

He raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and a figure flashed past on the top of the building.

He was about to lift his legs to go upstairs, but he felt slippery under his feet.He lowered his head, and with the help of the flashlight on his shoulder, he saw an extremely strange scene. The three plush toys in the shape of bears were gurgling with bright red blood.

All the lights in the neighborhood suddenly went out.

In the forensic autopsy room of S City Public Security Bureau, Zheng Yan frowned subconsciously as he looked at the three corpses on the dissection table.

The victims were two adults and a little girl.

Two adults, a man and a woman, appear to be in their 30s.No obvious trauma was found on the body surface.The early autopsy report showed that only the head of the two victims had been hit hard, and the two victims lost their ability to resist with one blow.Subsequently, the murderer stuffed the two victims into plush toys and threw them from the roof.

The situation of the little girl was completely different, with scars all over her body.

These bruises showed signs of whiplash, but more of them were bruises, and there was hardly a single intact part of his body.

"This victim," Qin Ling said, pointing to the little girl's body, "had been repeatedly beaten and even thrown."

"Who would do such an inhumane thing to a child?" Du Li asked, frowning.

"It seems that the murderer's target is this child." Zheng Yan said, "Does the victim have any signs of sexual assault?"

"No." The S city criminal police shook his head.

"There is no sexual assault, but to torture a child like this, what kind of psychology does the murderer have?" Zheng Yan asked puzzled.

"I think it has something to do with what this child has done." Seeing the people in Team Z looking at him, the criminal policeman coughed lightly and opened the file, "Her name is Zhan Ruolin, she is 8 years old this year. A A month ago, that is, on the 10th of last month, Zhan Ruolin did an 'earth-shattering' event."

On August 8, Zhan Ruolin went out to the park with her parents and ran into a young woman pushing a stroller.The young woman chatted with Zhan Ruolin's parents about the child, but ignored her child for a while.Zhan Ruolin pushed the stroller to the side of the road, and at the intersection where there was a steady stream of vehicles, the stroller slid into the middle of the road.

A car that couldn't dodge hit the baby carriage, and the child inside was thrown out.

Zheng Yan suddenly realized.

This incident caused an uproar on the Internet.Fortunately, the baby who was hit was alive. After falling out of the stroller, he was not hit by other vehicles. Although there were bruises, he did not die.

But the instigator of all this - Zhan Ruolin, did not show any remorse for what she had done.His parents, Zhan Hong and Fang Fei, did not express any apology to the victim and his family, and refused to pay the medical expenses.

Regarding Zhan Ruolin's behavior, Zhan Hong and Fang Fei argued that it was just a momentary neglect.Zhan Ruolin was only playing with her little brother, and the accident was caused by a mistake.

The criminal police officer in City S recalled that although the dashcams of several drivers showed that Zhan Ruolin suddenly stopped to adjust her shoelaces when she was driving to the intersection, the unlocked stroller slid towards the middle of the road by itself.However, Zhan Hong and Fang Fei's attitude towards the victim aroused public outrage. The Internet "keyboard warriors" described the incident as Zhan Ruolin deliberately pushing the baby carriage into the middle of the road after arbitrarily displaying it.

Although Zhan Ruolin was to some extent responsible for the accident, considering Zhan Ruolin's age and the negligence of the victim's family, the police did not pursue the matter. They only suggested that the victim's family ask Zhan Hong and Fang Fei for help. civil compensation.Half a month after the incident, unbearable to be harassed by strangers and in order to avoid civil compensation to the victim, Zhan's family moved away from their original residence and disappeared from the public eye.

"Unexpectedly, he moved to this place. It seems that those who hover outside the community are enthusiastic netizens. They are looking for opportunities to teach this family a lesson. And this child..." Zheng Yan pointed at the little girl Boy, "A lot of money is worth a lot of money, and if the accumulation is destroyed, the bones will be destroyed. You have been wronged."

"In that case, isn't the suspect obvious?" Du Li asked, "No apology, no compensation, and evasion of blame."

"We did suspect that it was a revenge killing." The criminal police of S City said, "However, the suspect did not have time to commit the crime. After hearing about this incident, she was shocked at first, then ecstatic, but made it clear that she did not do it herself. She requested We must find the killer, not for punishment, but hopefully to show gratitude to this person in front of him. We took a polygraph test on the suspect and found nothing."

"I also think that you have found the wrong person." Mu Xue said, pointing to the three blood-stained plush toys, "If it's revenge, the murderer only needs to kill people. Furthermore, even if it is to vent hatred, the murderer has to pay attention to Zhan Ruolin abused and beat her, and she was thrown from the top floor. All of these are reasonable. But there are two doubts here. First, Zhan Ruolin did it unintentionally, and the victim's family should know this. The ones who hurt them the most were Zhan Hong and Fang Fei , Their lack of remorse and refusal to compensate is the most chilling, and the victim's family should hate these two people the most. However, judging from the corpses, the two people were not abused; secondly, the murderer put the victim It's not normal to put a stuffed animal in it. I think the murderer's behavior has a specific meaning."

Zheng Yan nodded: "So, the murderer knows about this case, but not particularly, or, for some reason, he hates children. Have you figured out what this plush toy represents?"

"No." Mu Xue shook her head, "However, I think there should be clues here." She fiddled with the three plush toys, "Have you checked where these came from? Did they come from the victim's house, or did the murderer bring them to me?" on site?"
