Chapter 10 Come and get me! Come and get me!

A psychopath?

Long Hao's expression froze for a moment; he hadn't expected Chen Mo to give this answer.

But thinking about it, it would be reasonable to say the murderer is a psychopath.

Killing someone, abusing the corpse, and then provoking the police.

These are not things a normal person could do.

If one cannot make sense of the perpetrator's criminal logic, then explaining it with mental illness is plausible.

Just then, an officer rushed in.

"Something is wrong!"

"The reporting center just sent a notification that another murder case has occurred. According to the reporter's description, it is very similar to this case!"

"It is very likely the work of the same murderer!"

The bathroom fell into a brief silence.

There was no lead on the current case, and now another one had appeared.

The murderer killed two people in a row; it was simply lawless!

"Chen Mo, come with me!"

Twenty minutes later.

Inside a warehouse in the West District.

Long Hao, Chen Mo, and the others arrived.

"Officer, the body... the body is inside!"

The warehouse worker looked terrified, pointing forward with a trembling voice.

"This warehouse has been out of use for a long time. It was only put into temporary use today, so I came over. It has nothing to do with me."

Seeing the unfriendly gazes of the crowd, the reporter nervously stated that he was innocent.

"Don't worry, we are just asking for the specific details."

Long Hao signaled for someone to handle the questioning and walked inside with Chen Mo.

The location the warehouse worker pointed to was, strictly speaking, a shipping container.

Pulling open the half-closed door, the stench of blood rushed out from within.

The situation inside was fully revealed to everyone.

Just like the situation with the previous victim, Yang Nuan, the limbs had been severed, and there were many traces of beating on the body.

It was also posed for a photo, with both hands forming a 'heart' on the chest.

Chen Mo just glanced at it and didn't look any further.

Although the murderer was arrogant, he was indeed cautious; basically no useful information was left at the crime scene.

The ashes of the burned paper flashed in his mind.

Subconsciously, he searched the surroundings.

He looked at the wind direction from the window and followed it, and soon a pile of ashes from burned paper appeared in his line of sight.

He walked up and touched it; it was exactly the same as the one at Yang Nuan's place.

So, what exactly was the murderer using this paper for?

Chen Mo gently tapped his leg with his index finger, lost in thought.

The information was still not enough, still not enough!

Eliminating the chaotic thoughts, he signaled for the reporter to be brought over.

It was certain that the murderer was very arrogant. The last provocation was leaving a note at the door; what about this time?

He asked his question.

"Someone called me this morning saying they wanted to use this warehouse, so I came early to clean it."

"Then, I discovered the body inside."

The reporter wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, looking like a child who had done something wrong.

"Hmm, there is nothing else."

"Check the number that called him."

Dismissing the person, Chen Mo sorted out his thoughts.

If the murderer had tried to cover his tracks last time, this time, after killing, he didn't bother to hide at all.

He was clearly telling the police that after he killed, he wanted to notify them.

Come catch me!

Come catch me!

What kind of sick humor is this?

Playing hide-and-seek with the police?

Judging the murderer to be a psychopath earlier really wasn't wrong.

"Chen Mo, come here for a second."

Chen Mo walked over upon hearing this.

"This victim's name is Xia Yu, 23 years old. According to the investigation, he also worked in nightlife entertainment, and his build and height are highly similar to the previous victim!"

"Does this mean there is some commonality between the two victims?"

"And this commonality is the reason why the murderer targeted both of them!"

According to the background check on Xia Yu, the situation was basically the same as the previous victim; no relationship issues, and no grudges with anyone.

There were no signs of the wallet being rummaged through, and there was no evidence of sexual assault.

The strange thing about these two cases is that the victims had no grudges against the murderer!

Undoubtedly, the possibility of mental illness was even greater!

For no reason, who would go and torture a stranger?

"Do you think there is a problem with my judgment?"

At this moment, Chen Mo's status in Long Hao's heart had invisibly risen significantly.

Therefore, whenever he had an idea, he wanted to ask for his opinion.

"So what do you think is the commonality between the two victims?"

Chen Mo did not rush to answer; he wanted to hear Long Hao be more specific.

"Working in a bar, good-looking, late off-work hours..."

"Perhaps he was hurt by a girl working in a bar before? And the off-work hours perfectly meet the conditions for the crime."

After Long Hao finished speaking, he quietly waited for Chen Mo's answer.

"Late off-work hours are indeed, to a large extent, favorable for the murderer to commit the crime."

"But, I think there might be some issues with what you said earlier."

Working in a bar and being good-looking—there is no strong evidence for either point, nor any supporting proof.

The current situation is, will the murderer continue to commit crimes?

They need to find a way to hurry up and figure out the murderer's target.

Only then can they stop him when he commits his next crime.

"Then what do you mean?"

Long Hao asked hesitantly, watching Chen Mo, who had bent down to examine the victim.

"Actually, if you look closely, the bone structure of the two victims is quite similar."

Both have oval faces, big eyes, and willow-leaf eyebrows.

The bone structure, the similarity is as high as eighty percent!

This is all experience gained from Autopsy LV5.

It doesn't mean that people with the same bone structure look the same; that is incorrect.

One must consider obesity, muscle, mental state, skin condition, etc., all of which can lead to changes in appearance and body shape.

"The bone structure is the same?"

The forensic doctor hurriedly squatted down to check.

It was fine before he looked; once he looked, he was dumbfounded.

Similar! It really is very similar!

Then he looked at Chen Mo in surprise, an expression of admiration appearing on his face.

No one had really noticed this before.

If it weren't for Chen Mo's reminder, he wouldn't have thought in this direction at all.

"Good heavens, if you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have thought of this."

The forensic doctor said admiringly; this was his professional negligence, and then he cautiously glanced at Long Hao.

"It's normal not to notice; that you could discover it in time after I mentioned it shows your skills are solid."

Chen Mo's words directly saved the forensic doctor from a scolding.

Ignoring the forensic doctor's grateful gaze, his brain spun rapidly.

He vaguely grasped something.

How would a normal person see the bone structure?

If a forensic doctor can see it, it's because they have dissected many bodies and have experience to support it.

Ordinary people can only judge by looking at the appearance.

But the two victims only had the same bone structure; their appearances were not very similar.

This shows that the murderer has the skill to see bone structure.

His gaze landed on the ashes of the burned paper.

A smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

So that's it...
