"Do you think it is a cult, some kind of ritual, or some kind of sacrifice?"

The black policeman shook his head and said: "Our first reaction after seeing the scene was also to suspect that Ruan Xing's death might be due to some special ritual and that someone with special beliefs was committing the crime.

"But after consulting folk religion experts, I found that no matter whether it is ancient or modern, there is no religion related to those...those weird numbers.

"At the same time, during the investigation of Ruan Xing's past, we did not find that she has any relationship with any religion, or related people and things.

"The expert's psychoanalysis results of the murderer based on the situation at the scene are closer to mental illness, and his psychology has been greatly distorted and abnormal."

"Experts know...what do they know...Anyway, you can't trust experts. No matter who makes any judgment, it is based on the information at the time. In this matter, it may be that the information the experts have is not enough."

Zhang Lingjun said: "Although I have followed Ruan Xing in the past period and have not found any connection with any cult, I can occasionally hear her saying some obscure things about the stars, principles, philosophers, and

Words related to gods, mystery, and some kind of destiny.

"At the same time, it is also not very rigorous to only compare the symbolic characteristics of religions and cults recorded in books with the traces on the scene to draw results that have nothing to do with cults.

"You must know that there are too many various sects in this world, large and small, and not all religions have records.

"Those cults that have been secretive and hidden in the cracks of history may have been passed down.

"Even some associations that are not noticed at all, some are difficult to define, some are not religious, and have similar behaviors are spreading quietly in the Internet reality.

"Sometimes your exchanges in some niche and fringe forums on the Internet can give you a glimpse of the darkness of the real world that is far away from civilization and reason.

"For example, if you want people to dissect yourself...

"It may be a crime based on this or similar reasons."

"Have people dissected and commit suicide?"

Old John shook his head firmly, "This is impossible. You have forgotten the life state shown by Ruan Xing in the previous recording, chatting with colleagues, and browsing short videos while eating.

"There are also short videos recommended by big data based on her personal preferences, which anchor her personal mental state.

"Feminism, skin care, lipstick in fairy shades...fat-reducing European bags...Jimeis...the mental state reflected in this is extremely healthy, and it can be said that there is no trace of world-weariness.

"Such a guy wouldn't commit suicide."

Zhang Lingjun said: "It's just that all kinds of people have it. In reality, there is this kind of behavior that is difficult for us to understand normally. There is this kind of organization that is similar to a cult to a certain extent and has the same attributes.

It’s not that Ruan Xing committed suicide.”

Old John said: "Then why would such an organization find Ruan Xing? Why target her? What is special about her? As far as we know, there is nothing special about the situation. Could it be that they chose someone at random... This is a bit unconvincing

Power."

The black policeman said: "Who knows what those people think? Normal people would not think about killing people, nor would they think about turning the blood of the deceased into weird blood stains, nor would they want to take away the body after killing, because

Neurosis is neurosis."

Zhang Lingjun said: "Maybe he is sick."

The two of them looked at him after hearing this. "Are you sick?"

Zhang Lingjun explained, "I'm not swearing. When I say sick, I mean there is something wrong with the body. Maybe there is something wrong with Ruan Xing's body."

Old John was puzzled, "If you have any physical problems, just treat them? Even if it is a serious illness, her medical insurance does not cover a lot. Even if it is a serious illness, how can you borrow some money to get through it? What does this kind of messy thing have to do with?

Off?."

"What if it's a terminal disease and can't be cured?"

Old John shook his head: "Since Ruan Xing has not stopped working, her unit does not know whether she is sick, which proves that it is not a big problem. If nothing else, you should be able to tell after following her for such a long time.

How is your body..."

Zhang Lingjun said: "This doesn't mean anything. Some diseases, some terminal diseases, are not obvious like drawing a large amount of blood. Some diseases do not have any obvious symptoms when they are just detected, such as AIDS... early stage of cancer.

...Tuberculosis...well, tuberculosis is not considered a terminal disease now."

The black policeman couldn't help but feel a little strange, "Why do you have to be involved with the disease? We didn't find anything related to the disease among the clues we found..."

Old John said: "Even if there is a very small possibility of getting those terminal diseases you mentioned, she will only try to survive and only think about curing the disease."

Zhang Lingjun said, "Yes, try every means to survive. Survival is a person's instinct. Everyone who is sick wants to be cured, but terminal illness cannot be cured. The modern medical system has been very developed. If it cannot be cured, it really cannot be cured."

Okay, what should we do?"

Old John was silent for a moment, "When a person encounters such a thing, he is powerless and either accepts it calmly or commits suicide. What does it have to do with a cult?"

Zhang Lingjun sighed, "You don't understand. When a person is terminally ill, the first thing he needs to do is seek medical treatment urgently, looking for something mysterious, or something that in his opinion may have extraordinary power, hoping to bring him something with him.

Come for a miracle, bring about a turn of events or comfort the soul.

"Praying to God and worshiping Buddha is such an ancient custom that has been handed down from generation to generation and has been responsible for such functions. There is nothing more appropriate than this.

"Which efficacious temple does not have incense for those who are sick or their families? Which merit box does not have a dead person's money in it?

"It's possible that Ruan Xing was just unlucky. He worshiped gods instead of ghosts, got involved with some cults, and then suffered his current fate."

Old John pondered and shook his head, "The logic of this guess is too...not convincing enough, there are too many questions, and it is too far-fetched and unreliable."

"Okay."

Zhang Lingjun thought for a while and then said: "That may be because of the economy."

Hearing this, the black policeman immediately sighed and shook his head, "Here we go again..."

Zhang Lingjun explained: "It's not that I have to stick to it, but money is the source of all evil and the root of all problems. Economic disputes are the main contradiction that can cause vicious conflicts in the current society. Compared with feelings, compared with

Ideas, money are more entangled with grudges than beliefs.

"Of course it's the same now."
