Pure Darkness

Chapters 5.1

Every cop has ever taken a psychology course committing a crime at a time when they have been through a police training academy. When solving real-world cases, they sometimes have to analyze the mind of a criminal and these criminal acts as speculative means to help them deal with the case.

But Fang Qing really had never seen an expert in this field work before.

For now, he decided he would just observe and see how it went. Fang Qing and a few other officers exchanged glances. However, the boy Bo Jinyan continued to sit down, while drinking his tea quietly. It was as if he had experienced too many of these kinds of scenarios and interacted with too many police officers like them.

The midnight wind was calm. As they waited, everything seemed very quiet. Fang Qing noticed that Jian Yao was already sitting next to Bo Jinyan and opened her laptop. Bo Jinyan slightly lowered her head and said something to him. Jian Yao nodded and continued in a focused and indifferent manner that was no different from Bo Jinyan. The way the two of them interacted suddenly made Fang Qing think of a phrase: An ideal pair of lovers.

In fact, in the past, Fang Qing had also anticipated this type of love, with a sweet and gentle woman by his side.

However, in the end, the person he loved was a cunning eagle.

Fang Qing laughed at himself mockingly.

Then, Bo Jinyan spoke, “This person is someone from the area, and may have lived in the area for a very long time. Moreover, the perpetrator had committed this crime independently, and was over twenty years old.

“He was either someone Fu Wei, the victim, knew, or he was at least someone who interacted with Fu Wei earlier in the ancient city.

On the night of the incident, he wore a thick jacket that he left behind.

“He has the ability to cheat lie detectors, as well as various back interrogation techniques. He seems to be quite familiar with the way police handle their cases. He may have clashed with the police once over a different case. For example, the offender may have been a suspect, or someone related to the suspect, and is undergoing a thorough police investigation.

“She lives no more than a few streets from TKP, and has no prerequisites for living alone.

He is unemployed or works in a lower-level job.

He usually handled matters bravely but meticulously. His plans are impenetrable, but his character is extremely depressive with some signs of multiple personality, but in his professional life, he is highly automated, and this secret is unknown to everyone. There must have been something around him that affected his life dramatically which would have caused his long-term pressure so he held it inside him.

Your focus should be on finding someone who meets the requirements I just registered for you from the people you have investigated who interacted directly with Fu Wei once he entered the ancient city. Check their alibis and find witnesses. You will soon be given a gift. ”

——

All the police officers were silent. Fang Qing was also thinking hard.

Bo Jinyan stopped, her attitude unaffected by the silence of the police officers. With a calm tone that was disobedient or arrogant, he began to explain calmly, “When a crime occurs, the day is late at night, and heavy rain falls. We all know Fu Wei came back late at night, and the CTF has no shelter whatsoever. So, we know the criminal is waiting for him there.

A thick jacket is only enough to hide a knife 20-30 cm long.

Fu Wei was killed about four meters from where he stood, and he left half of the palm. His hands are different. He used the power in his palm, and the depth of the palm print was even on all sides. There was no blood nearby. So, this meant that this was the mark he left behind when he was alive. That day, he went to the bar and drank some wine. In the midst of the heavy rain, why did he stop suddenly in the middle of the road and leave a trace of a palm on the wall? This was because, he saw someone he knew, or at least seen before in the ancient city.

“The other person is not a stranger. If a person sees a stranger in the middle of a rainy night, he will not feel strange. Instead, someone would pass by, but he stopped.

“The wrist of Fu Wei has a trace of struggle. The wrists, face, and other exposed areas of the killer may have been injured by Fu Wei by scratching or scratching.

“The killer is very familiar with the surveillance cameras on this street, the street itself, when the shops close and open, and even the abandoned elementary school. This meant, he had stayed here for a period of time. He has no accomplices. If there were two people, taking into account the accuracy and courage of the murderer, he would execute the case in a more efficient manner, he said, and he didn't have to run to elementary school to change his bloody clothes, or leave any traces behind.

“He treated the corpse very cruelly, almost losing control, as he slashed the corpse over forty times and his knife hit the bone. In addition, this action is not necessarily done to hide the identity of the body or important characteristics. This calm yet angry and restrained yet frenetic attitude, stemming from long-term repressed emotions that had caused extreme distortions in his mind. His life did not go as he wanted. Killing someone in such a crude and simple manner showed that this was his main instinct. This type of person will probably not get complicated intellectual work or interpersonal work in real life. According to his mental state, he couldn't do it either.

“After she changed clothes at school, she quickly left. He did not stay any longer due to his caution. If he stayed, he would definitely find a bloodstain and clean it up. However, just now, I asked the people on your team to check the security footage for up to an hour after the incident happened. The person I just explained to you – people who are in a hurry with bags, hair drenched, and medium body coming from the direction of – elementary school do not appear on the streets, the, which means he has to live around one of these streets. Now, you can start asking questions.”

One officer said, “Professor Bo, I feel you are describing this person rather contradictory. His plans were meticulous, he was an expert in crime, and he looked like someone cultured. However, he was also very rude, and he even had a rough job.”.

Bo Jinyan laughed, “Yes, contradictory. Doesn't evil come from irreconcilable contradictions?”

This sentence made the police officer speechless as he thought about it. Another officer asked, “Why are you so sure he was wearing a thick jacket to hide a knife? He could have a bag for that purpose, and the bag would also be a place to put a change of clothes.”

“Putting a knife in his bag? Do you really think that when the target arrives, he will first unzip the bag, then pull out the knife, then stab the person? Moreover, the victim could have used a backpack strap as a weapon to counterattack. No, will our killer be that stupid?”

After he finished speaking, the police officer's face turned red. Bo Jinyan's eyes brightened as she spoke. When Jian Yao softly coughed, she paused and fell silent for a moment. Then, he said to the officer, “I spoke objectively. I'm not mocking you.”

Officer : “...”

Jian Yao: “...”
