[Zhongyingmei] That snake

Atlanta Police Department.

"The three deceased were all male, single, aged between 40 and 50, high-level people engaged in the financial industry, and lived in a high-end residential area with their children."

"The victim's heart was cut out to death, and the heart was crushed and thrown into the trash can in the victim's room. There were traces of abuse/abuse on the body, and the torture tool was the victim's own belt, but unfortunately, it was not on it Fingerprints were extracted."

Hotch stood at the desk and explained the case to everyone, while Oliver moved a chair and sat on the side of the desk, with his elbows resting on the table, his fingers resting on his chin, leaning towards Hotch inadvertently.

Although in the car that day, Hotch didn't accept it, but he didn't refuse it, let alone reject Oliver's contact.

"The victim was groomed after death, including the bloody belt being tied back on his trousers," Hotch said.

The scene was inspected by Oliver, Hotch and Morgan.

"The victim lived in a high-end neighborhood with high security," Morgan continued. "The neighborhood is mostly white, which excludes the possibility of people of color committing crimes. They are too conspicuous. Unsub committed crimes during the day, he was showing off, and he didn't Fear of the guards, probably because he had a legitimate reason to enter the compound, but that reason was only valid during the day, and his entry at night was difficult to explain."

"There were no signs of forced entry at the scene, he likely knew the victim and his identity would not have been turned away by the victim."

"It could be a repairman, a college student doing a survey, or a mutual acquaintance," Reid said. "****, is there any connection between the victims?"

**Standing by the window, he has written down all the relevant information about the victims that he can get so far, and quickly replied, "Yes, the sons of the last two victims and the nephews of the last two victims are both studying in the same middle school , you know, these people are not short of money, it is a noble school."

"Nephew?" Prentiss caught a difference.

"Yes, Paul's brother and sister-in-law, the parents of his nephew Mark, died in a car accident two months ago. Paul, who was childless, became his guardian, but now the poor child has lost his family again. , is also his last relative."

"The heart generally represents strength or emotion," Rossi said. "In many sacrificial acts, people will take out their hearts and offer them to the gods, praying for strength from the gods. But the act of crushing the heart and throwing it into the trash can shows that unsub’s insult and hatred for the victim, then the heart here represents some kind of emotion.”

Emotionally speaking, the three deceased are all single guardians with a boy, so when unsub vents his emotions, the object he brings in is either a lover or a child, and the replacement is a loser who is jealous of the victim's career success.

The first victim was never married and had no children of her own.

The son of the second victim was a product of a one-night stand, but was regarded by the community as a good father.

The third victim was divorced, and the custody of his son was awarded to him. However, he was busy with work, so he could only satisfy his son financially, and could not give more care.

The circumstances of each of the three families were different, so lover murder was never established.Now there are two options left, the child or the loser.

If the role played by unsub is a child in the family, and the three boys are high school students around the age of 17, the suspicion that unsub is a teenager cannot be ruled out in terms of height and body shape.

"Unsub is currently in a strong compensatory mentality, not only taking out his heart to spit the victim's soul, but also satisfying his own pleasure with sadism." Hotch speculated, "Unsub took a lot of property, but he didn't take some things away, Such as gold-rimmed glasses, out-of-print pens on the desk, trophies for the victims."

These things represent the victim's cultural accomplishment, career success, and financial wealth, but unsub dismisses them, which shows that he did not kill out of jealousy.

"Whiplash is a sadistic method, which is generally regarded as revenge, punishment or slavery. The serotonin and monomeric histamine near the whip wound on the victim's body are stable at normal values, so unsub whips the corpse after death. It is certain What’s more, unsub thinks it’s punishing these people.” Oliver said, “Does the victim have any bad records?”

"Garcia found that the last two victims had some innocuous economic crime records, and the final court judgment was only compensation." Reid replied, "The first victim has no bad records. But his position is his brother's. result of the operation."

The three victims have many similarities, but the first victim, Paul, is the most special. Oliver found the first crime scene picture on the desktop covered with documents.

Although I went to the scene to check, but compared with the fresh blood stains on the photos taken by the police at the first time, the blackened blood stains of Jiuzhi are of course closer to the situation at that time.

The on-site inspection is to complete the geographical information that has not been photographed in the mind, and by the way, find out if there is any evidence that the local police missed.

The blood on the ground was in the shape of a splash, and part of the ground in front of the victim was not stained with blood. The police could use white chalk to outline the shape of the unsub's sole.

"According to the bloodstain analysis, Unsub is about 1.8 meters tall, thin and wears size eleven shoes." Oliver has never been used to the feet that Americans like to use to calculate height. "When digging out his heart, he acted decisively without any hesitation .It's kind of weird that the blood is a splatter type, but if you were to use a tool to open the chest cavity, the blood should just flow out."

"The wound on the victim's mouth is definitely not a knife wound. It's like a split wound, like, like using a dilator to stretch the flesh. Moreover, the muscles are everted. I think the unsub is used from the inside out. Break open your chest."

"Who would have that much strength?!" Prentiss exclaimed, don't underestimate the toughness of human skin and muscles, at least a normal adult can't directly pierce the skin with five fingers

"Not a normal guy," Oliver said.

"It was mentioned in the forensic medical examination report that only the first victim had signs of fighting. There were bluish-purple bruises on his wrists, and there was a certain degree of internal bleeding in the abdominal organs."

Hotch pointed this out. "And when the local police arrived at the scene of the first crime, they found a lot of shards of glass on the ground. After demobilization, it turned out to be glass water glasses. The first case may be a murder of passion during a fight."

Hotch habitually clasped the elbow of his right arm with his left hand and rested the fingers of his right hand on his chin, which he always did when he was thinking.

"Overkill means anger, and anger means close personal relationships," Rossi said. "I think our unsub went on to kill the next two victims after the passionate murder. It shows that he is probably a sociopath himself." and psychopathic tendencies.”

"Killing anxiety." Oliver says people with killing anxiety initially act violently out of anger, but then feel remorse, which sometimes turns into an urge to do it again.

"It was only after the first murder that he realized his psychology. And unsub in this case, they solved the target in the first crime. They will only be more unscrupulous in subsequent cases. Where we can start , is the first and most special victim, and we need to start investigating from his personal relationship." Rossi nodded.

Hotch looked at **, he blinked, and immediately understood the team leader's intention. **The introduction said: "Paul and his elder brother both died of their parents when they were young. His elder brother worked hard in the mall alone and became a corporate executive. He has a beautiful wife and a smart and lovely son. , can be said to be a model of the American dream.

But Paul is different. He has not made any achievements before or after adulthood, in school or in the workplace.If it wasn't for his elder brother to force him into a position in his own company.He might even be living on the dole.

But very unfortunately, Paul's brother and his wife were seriously injured and died in an accidental car accident.All of their property is left to their son Mark.And he did not have the special care of his brother in the workplace, and he has already received a resignation letter from his boss.

But the disaster on him didn't end there, and he was killed by this terrible heartbreaker soon. "

"Poor man." Morgan asked with a sigh, raising his eyebrows. "So, what about the kid, Mark? How is he doing?"

"Don't worry, this child has a pair of parents who love him very much. Because he is still underage, their estate is temporarily managed by a trust fund. That large amount of property is enough for Mark to live comfortably for the rest of his life. He is still there now Study in a noble high school."

"That is to say. Paul's social circle is nothing more than the workplace and this Mark." Hotch said, "We need to go to Mark's school to inquire about his recent situation, and to the company where Paul worked before to inquire whether he has a relationship with anyone. Let's go against each other. Then Oliver and I will go to school, and Morgan and Prentiss will go to the company where Paul works." Hotch assigned the task.

————————————————————————————————————————

Mark's middle school is located at the junction of the Atlanta suburbs and the city. Oliver and Hotch need to drive there.

This time, it was Oliver who drove the car. There are still no entertainment items such as car CDs stored on the SUV shared by the FBI.Just like the last time the two rushed back to Washington from New York.

However, when driving on the urban highways of Atlanta, there is a constant flow of vehicles on the wide roads.The sound of people talking on the street, the horns of passing vehicles, and the sharp sound of tires rubbing against the ground when braking.

In this way, the silent atmosphere becomes less silent, and it will not be awkward because of thinking about the last time.

Of course, this was just Oliver guessing Hotch's thoughts, and he himself would not feel embarrassed at all.Although it's a pity, he will never forget the daylight and the birds flapping their wings in the field, as well as Hotch's surprised and bewildered expression

"What are you laughing at?" Hotch said with a hint of doubt in his tone.

Oliver turned to look at Hotch while waiting for the red light.Mr. Detective's brows and eyes are very close together, which makes him look more serious and cold when his face is expressionless.

But now, Oliver felt that Hotch's doubtful eyes were brewing layers of cloud-like, real and untouchable tenderness.

The smile on Oliver's lips deepened, showing no sign of restraint.But as luck would have it, the green light came on.The owner of the car behind them has already honked the horn, urging the slow-moving car ahead.This made Oliver turn his head back very reluctantly, and he said, "I thought of you, and found that you are here."

Hotch lowered his eyes and said nothing.
