Chapter 93 Fingerless Ogre (13/24)
"The content of the cannibal case in Tallinn, Stephanie, do you know?"
Sitting in a cafe outside the police station, Horn and Susanna went in to get the case information. Donald was squinting his eyes and thinking about the control and release of Bigby King Kong fist. He found that the atmosphere was a little silent, so he simply asked about the case.
"I don't know either. I lived in Xialin District before and didn't pay much attention to these cases, Pence?"
Stephanie was still looking through the menu in the cafe and shook her head and looked at Pence.
"I just heard of it. At that time, the case was very big, and many people died. The murderer seemed to be a guy from a mental hospital. He believed that eating human flesh could gain strength and prolong life... As for the model of the finger... Anyway, the police station said it was a model. When I was drinking at Longshu, I heard people say it was a real person's finger bone. Anyway, there were all kinds of statements."
Pence was also a little sensible about this case, and most of the content was heard by Dragon Hunting.
"There are doubts in this case."
Boglo, who hadn't spoken much, came in and interrupted at this time, and Donald and his friends' eyes immediately turned.
Now I remember that the person in front of me is an old qualification in the strange game and was a captain before.
"I was not responsible for this case, but my friend was among the investigators involved in this case. He told me that although the murderer was found in this case, there were still some suspicions. One of them was the finger bone. The murderer liked to leave a finger bone at the kidnapping site, including a model. It was when the first missing case occurred. The next missing case appeared the real finger bone, so the murderer also had the title of a broken finger man-eating ghost... The bed of the mentally ill patient who was finally caught was caught.
Some fingers were indeed found under the floor tiles on the bottom... I heard that they were half gnawed, so the police and the strange investigation bureau were convicted. However, the finger bones at the scene of the murder were not covered with any flesh and blood. No matter how good the guy's teeth were, they could not gnawed so cleanly. So some people suspected that there were other murderers at that time. However, in order to calm the storm, the government chose to close the case. It was not that it did not investigate, but it turned out from an open investigation to a private investigation. Now it seems that there is no result."
Borglo just said the result. He never liked to express some personal guesses, perhaps because he thought it was meaningless to say unfounded guesses.
“So disgusting…”
Perhaps thinking of that scene, Stephanie's expression was not very good.
Donald had seen even more disgusting scenes in Red Cliff Town, but he didn't feel much at this time. He was just interested in the title of a broken finger cannibal that sounds like a cruelty.
"It's out."
Pence pointed to the street outside, Shelley and Susanna were coming here, following two people in police uniforms behind them.
"These two are the sheriffs in the police station who were in charge of this case. They know some of the situations that year...Murtley Green, Keppel Leonard."
Susanna made a brief introduction, which was a preliminary understanding.
"I am frank, these two sheriffs have been checking for so long, but there is no special progress. Let's check it again? Aren't we all reported information here? Just hand over these directly?"
Looking at the two file bags on the table, Donald felt that the things on it should be detailed enough.
"This is the information from five months ago. Because of the internal personnel resources of the police station, we actually stopped investigating this case very early."
Mertley Green pressed the information on the table and said in front of Susanna and Horn.
The case of the cut-fingered man-eating ghost has been a while since. The police station does not have so many resources and personnel to investigate a case that has been closed, especially when there is no new or similar victims.
"That's it. Since there are requirements above, you still need to check what you should check. There are confessions here at that time, so there should be no need to ask again. What we have to do is to go to some places at that time to look at them, such as some doubts and unsolved questions at that time. In short, you can't be idle, even if you act like a show..."
Susanna pushed a file bag to Donald and the remaining one was left for Horn. The team's allocation was decided when it came. Horn needed Borglo, who had a stronger combat power in the team, as her helper, and she naturally had to be with Horn.
"Pretending? Sorry, what do you think of the investigation of the case? Do you have a joke?"
Keppel Leonard seemed a little excited about Susanna's frivolous words, and his eyes kept circling on the faces of several people in the Rose Squad.
Donald, who was about to speak, looked at Keppel Leonard strangely, and the expressions of the other people were almost the same.
Treat investigation as a joke?
The prisoners in this case were arrested by the police station, and they also settled the case. They decided to stop the subsequent private investigation. If you want to have a joke, shouldn't it be them?
"Kepel, what are you saying? Pay attention to your words!"
Mertley Green, who looked older last year, suddenly turned his head and scolded him.
"It's okay, it's my problem..."
Susanna's explanation made the scene even more awkward.
"Let's investigate the case, move first. You can't find any new clues while sitting here. I think Mr. Leonard will be our guide. How about it?"
Donald stood up to smooth things over. If the stalemate continues like this, the case will probably have conflicts between the two sides.
He really doesn't have so much time to watch people quarrel here. Will he help Susanna bully a policeman?
"I have no objection, Keppel, you go to the East Side and I go to the West Side. Are there any problems?"
"No."
Keppel was quite in awe of Mertley.
Two groups of people left the cafe one after another. Donald was driven by Pence, Stephanie sat in the secondary seat, Donald held a file bag with Keppel and Lilo sat in the back seat of the vehicle.
“Are these all the victims?”
Holding a stack of photos in his hand, there were about seven or eight, which were different corpses. After looking through them one by one, Donald noticed that all corpses had one thing in common, that is, their bodies were more or less incomplete, and nearly half of the victims had a blood line from their chest to their lower abdomen.
The murderer likes to destroy the bodies and break them open. From the background of the photo, the places where the corpse is thrown are different.
"No, we haven't found some bodies yet."
Keppel didn't look at Donald, nor did he look at the photos in his hand.
"The internal organs of the corpse are missing... Among them, the heart is the most common... Cooking? I am not wrong about the cooking mentioned above, is it the person who cooks?"
Donald has a good memory, so he plans to pass the information on it before arriving at the first location, so he will take it out and take a few more glances later.
Seeing the description of the criminal's crime, he always thought that the so-called broken finger cannibal is a criminal who likes to eat people's fingers. Now it seems that he took it for granted.
"Yes, we found iron pots and some residual cubes in several strongholds of the murderer. His purpose of kidnapping was not just to kill. According to our discoveries during the investigation of the case, he liked to tie people to chairs, pillars, or some other fixed objects, and then cut the victim's body with a knife. If possible, he would prolong the victim's life as much as possible, watching him cook the meat or internal organs... Because of this situation, the police station believed that the murderer should be a psychopath when making a judgment."
Keppel's words made the other people in the car look a little unfair.
It’s not that they have never seen dead people, but this way of killing people is really not acceptable to ordinary people.
Oh, there is one exception, and that is Lilo.
Time passed as Donald flipped through the archives, and soon they arrived at the former stronghold of the first broken finger cannibal.
“It is one of the poorest neighborhoods in Tallinn, and the place we are going to be in a residential building.”
Although Tallinn District represents a middle-class living area, this does not mean that everyone's lives have reached an average level. There are always some people's quality of life below the average level.
They are unwilling to abandon their living environment in Tallinn, and even if they are persistent, they do not want to go to the mainland.
Because when they get there, it means that their children and their offspring need to make more efforts if they want to return to Tallin or Xialin.
There are streets with broken leaves everywhere, tilted trash cans, mottled and old buildings, and good and bad street lights on the roadside. Occasionally, you can see a few residents walking by in clothes. They look at Donald and his party, and they can't hide their envy or jealousy.
"This way."
Keppel had obviously been here many times before, and was familiar with the road and led a few people into a nearby building.
Walking up from the first floor, Donald saw the miscellaneous items piled up on both sides of the stairs, the children sitting at the door in a daze, the bamboo poles and clothes on the corridor, and there was no balcony here.
Occasionally, when passing by a corridor, you can see the cool-dressed women standing outside the rooms inside. They see people wearing police uniforms passing by but do not want to retreat, but wave to this side and make some actions with some hints.
"arrive."
On the fourth floor of the building, there were obviously fewer people here, and they were all gathered in the corridor in the east, while on the west, there were some wooden boxes and empty wine bottles, and there were obviously no one living inside.
"The body found here was just completed shortly after the building was completed. The surrounding environmental assessment and government approval were underway. No one moved in. Later, after that incident, the room here was sealed up by us. No one wanted to live there, so it was empty."
After crossing the debris and approaching the door, Donald saw an iron fence for the first time.
Then there is a wooden door with seals attached.
The seal is broken...
