Chapter 2: You said you killed 3?
Chapter 2: You said you killed 3?
Lu Yiming's heart skipped a beat, and his thumb, hovering over the undo button, stopped.
If this group is real...
Could I use the experience of these "extremely heinous criminals" to solve this case...?
Would this count as a major achievement? Does this mean I have a chance of getting a permanent position?
I no longer have to go back to that leaky low-rent apartment, no longer have to struggle in the quagmire of the death line, and even... have the ability to solve the unsolved case of my father from back then.
Thinking of this, Lu Yiming took a deep breath. Since they consider me a "colleague"...
From this moment forward, I am the murderer in this serial killing case.
He typed quickly on his phone.
Lu Yiming: I would like to hear the details.
Che Guevara: Heh, is the newcomer so rude to his senior? You're already showing off after killing just one person.
Lu Yiming didn't even lift his eyelids, completely ignoring this clown who only knew how to steal batteries.
Soon, the image of the beaker popped up—Walter White from Breaking Bad, who was an expert in chemistry.
Chemist Old Bai: It's nitroglycerin. The smile on the deceased's face was caused by rigor mortis, which was triggered by the simultaneous ingestion of Viagra and an excessive amount of nitroglycerin.
Old Bai only posted this one sentence, without explaining the problem in detail.
But Lu Yiming felt a chill run down his spine; those few words were like a sudden awakening.
He has now determined that all three accidental deaths were murders.
Although Lu Yiming's physical fitness was poor, his grades in forensic medicine were quite good when he was in police academy.
Viagra is a vasodilator, while nitroglycerin is an antihypertensive drug.
Taking either one alone is fine, but under high-intensity piston-like movements, the combination of the two can instantly cause hypotension, shock, and cardiac arrest.
Moreover, nitroglycerin is metabolized very quickly in the body and will decompose within half an hour. Ordinary autopsies will only detect Viagra components.
No wonder these cases were all classified as "dying from excessive high" and sudden death.
This killer is a master.
"FXXK! I told you to post the conclusions and photos in the group, what are you dawdling about?" Mike, the seasoned veteran, came over.
Lu Yiming snapped back to his senses, shoved Mike aside, and pounced on the disheveled blonde woman huddled in the corner of the sofa, his eyes sharp:
"Tell me, besides taking Viagra, what else did the deceased eat today?"
The woman was stunned by Lu Yiming's outburst. Mike rushed over and grabbed Lu Yiming, yelling, "Back off! Are you crazy? Get away from this girl!"
Lu Yiming didn't care about any of that. Since it was murder, this woman was also a suspect.
The woman said tremblingly, "He... also brought a bottle of medicine today, saying it would keep him going all night."
He pointed to the trash can as he spoke.
Without saying a word, Lu Yiming rushed over and started rummaging through the trash cans.
A brown glass bottle was picked out; its packaging was simple, with no production information on it, only a string of illegible English letters: Red Dragon Brew.
Upon unscrewing the cap, a pungent smell of ethanol mixed with a scent similar to mentholatum wafted out.
Lu Yiming then recalled the smell of mentholatum he had smelled when he first entered the room.
At the time, I thought it was some kind of product, but now it seems to be nitroglycerin.
"land……"
Mike grabbed his hand, looking worried. "I know you're eager to get a permanent position, but this can't be rushed. Why don't you go back and rest? I'll handle things here."
Lu Yiming rolled his eyes and wiped his hands on his clothes:
"Old Mike, if I save your life, how will you repay me?"
This is no joke. If Mike were to classify a murder as an accidental death,
If the serial killer continues to commit crimes, he will eventually be exposed.
When the internal investigation department gets involved, your uniform will be stripped off, and you won't get a single penny of your pension.
"What are you talking about?"
Lu Yiming told him the whole story.
Mike instantly realized the seriousness of the situation and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Shit! You...you wait for me, I'm going to get help now. Three people have died, this is a big case..."
Mike spoke as he backed out the door, looking very anxious.
Lu Yiming breathed a sigh of relief. The case could now be basically classified as murder, but the murderer had not yet been found.
It's unlikely that the mistress committed the crime. If it were her, she could have easily destroyed the evidence before reporting it to the police.
Although a case can now be filed, his contribution is minimal; he only provided crucial clues.
At most, you'll receive commendations and praise, but that's not enough. You have to catch the person to be considered to have made a great contribution.
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone again.
He was now completely convinced that the group was real and that the members were notorious criminals.
If we make good use of these demons, capturing people shouldn't be difficult.
Since we've made the decision, let's go all the way.
He wanted to continue playing the role of a serial killer in the group chat.
Lu Yiming was unaware that he had now completely opened "Pandora's box".
……
By this time, the group chat was already flooded with messages.
Outlaw Zhang San: @Lu Yiming, why aren't you saying anything?
Che Guevara: I guess he felt embarrassed after Old White exposed his methods. These young criminals just aren't as composed as us veterans.
Professor Moriarty: @Lu Yiming, don't be discouraged, your technique is very skillful.
Chemist Old White: Yes, to be able to use the properties of this drug to kill people, that's quite a talent. From now on, follow me, and I'll teach you how to make 99% pure blue rock candy.
Lu Yiming's lips twitched; he dared not touch this thing.
Jack the Ripper: Pshaw, what's so great about killing just one person? The real skill is being able to keep killing without getting caught.
Che Guevara: Exactly!
It's like someone bringing you a pillow when you're sleepy.
Lu Yiming coughed lightly twice, feeling somewhat ashamed.
For the sake of getting a permanent position, and for the sake of justice, I endured it.
Lu Yiming: It's not about showing off, I just killed three, and those pigs are still kept in the dark.
These words immediately caused an uproar in the legendary criminals' chat group.
Seven Deadly Sins Killer Du: What commonalities do you have in choosing your targets?
Bible Killer John: Interesting.
Zodiac Killer: Interesting.
Hwaseong Serial Killer: Impressive, my friend.
Outlaw Zhang San: Holy crap? How many years is that?!
……
Che Guevara: You're bragging, aren't you? I got caught stealing two batteries, how come you haven't been caught killing three people?
Lu Yiming smiled crookedly; the fish had taken the bait.
He clicked on the album and sent out a package of photos from the first two cases.
If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it grass first.
Lu Yiming: Facts speak louder than words. =7
Lu Yiming: I don't know if you guys are better than those pigs?
……
Che Guevara: My goodness, this group is full of talented people.
Jack the Ripper: This newbie is pretty good, he completed my monthly KPI in one go.
Educator Jigsaw: What was your reason for killing them? I think you should give them a chance for redemption, or learn to play games with me.
Watching these devils comment on the "murder case," Lu Yiming felt a wave of nausea and disgust.
I'm going to be a police officer.
I'm just borrowing your criminal experience.
But why hasn't that person come out to make a portrait of me yet?
Just then, an administrator spoke up.
Food critic Hannibal: Interesting. Are you trying to get us to find you? Is this a challenge?
Here they come! Lu Yiming's spirits lifted.
Hannibal Lecter in "The Silence of the Lambs" is not only a food enthusiast from Fujian, but also a PhD in psychology.
His most important identity is that of a criminal psychology expert, and he is extremely skilled at criminal profiling.
Lu Yiming: I wouldn't dare accept the challenge; I just want to see how far the seniors have gone.
Hannibal Lecter: I accept your challenge.
Lu Yiming sat up slightly; his plan had succeeded.
Hannibal Lecter, the food critic: Your remarks carry a deliberate air of rudeness, a defensive facade. You crave recognition, yet fear being seen through. You are an adult male who has long been living in a state of repression.
Food critic Hannibal Lecter: You chose this method of sudden death to kill because you suffer from a severe dysfunction and are jealous of their ability to experience physical pleasure.
Hannibal Lecter, the gourmet: You are venting your anger at not being a man by taking other people's lives...
