Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

”It looks like this murderer is very malicious and cruel, taking pleasure in torturing others. He’s a very dangerous character, and we need to catch him as soon as possible to prevent more victims.” Tang Feng observed the scene and concluded.

As they spoke, Liu Shuangshuang and Tang Feng had already approached the victim. The victim’s body lay on the ground sideward, covered in wounds inflicted by abuse.

The victim’s abdomen was particularly shocking, with seven or eight steel rods inserted, each penetrating through the body, yet cleverly avoiding fatal areas, causing the victim immense suffering before death.

”The murderer must have a penchant for abuse or hold a deep grudge against the deceased; otherwise, why use such cruel methods of killing?” Tang Feng squatted down, studying the victim’s body as he murmured to himself.

Liu Shuangshuang was examining the surrounding messy footprints, carefully distinguishing the differences. She discovered that these footprints were actually all from one person!

Around these footprints, there were many tiny holes, as if made by small rods, and these holes followed the footprints closely.

This is interesting; no footprints but these tiny holes suggest that the murderer might not be human, but some kind of intelligent lifeform.

”Brother Tang, what do you think?” Liu Shuangshuang looked at Tang Feng, who squatted down beside her, also observing these tiny holes, asking for his judgment.

”These footprints, judging by the pattern and size, belong to one person, the victim. There are no footprints from the murderer, only these holes, indicating that these holes are left by the murderer.

Leaving traces like this clearly suggests the murderer might be an intelligent being, but we can’t rule out that it was deliberately left by a human to confuse us.”

Liu Shuangshuang nodded: ”That possibility isn’t impossible; sometimes human cruelty goes beyond our imagination, even more disregardful of life than intelligent beings.”

................

”The deceased, Hao Guoying, male, thirty-two years old, unmarried, has lost both parents and has no relatives, ran a grocery store with modest business, earning little.

According to Hao Guoying’s neighbors, he was reclusive and introverted, not fond of socializing, but a decent person, and didn’t mind letting people take a little advantage in business.

Hao Guoying dated a few girlfriends, but they ultimately rejected him for being poor or too introverted and boring, never getting anywhere. Above is the investigation data on Hao Guoying.”

In the middle of the office, Tang Feng finished reading the file information and closed the file bag.

”A reclusive character but with a good reputation, lacking any habit of haggling, simple interpersonal relationships, such a person shouldn’t have mortal enemies, let alone be brutally murdered.

Unless it was by an enemy, there’s only one possibility, Hao Guoying encountered a pure psychopath who enjoys torturing and killing people.”

Liu Shuangshuang flipped through the files in her hand, thinking there must be some hidden truths despite assuming a psychopathic murderer.

As Liu Shuangshuang was reflecting on this, she heard the pager buzzing. She took it out, saw the encrypted message, a murder notice, another case had emerged.

Putting down the pager, Liu Shuangshuang and Tang Feng quickly exited, boarded Chi Feng, and dashed towards the crime scene.

The crime scene was again in a suburban area, but east of Hao Guoying’s scene, and the police line range was extensive, scattered with fleeing footprints and blood spots, eerily resembling Hao Guoying’s murder scene.

This time the victim was a woman, appearing to be in her twenties, wearing a Bohemian-style long dress covering her from head to toe.

The woman had long hair curled in big waves, her appearance was delicate, a woman living a refined and stylish life.

However, her Bohemian-style long dress was no longer recognizable in color, thoroughly soaked in blood, now dried, with the dress stiffly sticking to her body.

Liu Shuangshuang reached out to lift the woman’s dress, the dress already stuck to the skin because of the blood, faintly revealing numerous wounds on her body.

”The dress and the body have adhered together, we need to take it back for an autopsy.” Liu Shuangshuang released the slightly lifted dress, stood up and spoke to Tang Feng.

Tang Feng nodded: ”The scene investigation is basically complete, let’s wrap up.”

In the anatomy room, the woman’s skirt had been removed, exposing the horrifying wounds over her body.

Beside them, the forensic doctor was explaining the autopsy results to Tang Feng and Liu Shuangshuang: ”This female corpse contains no drug residues, the stomach is empty, there’s no food, and there are prolonged binding marks on the wrists and ankles.

This indicates she was subjected to captivity before death, and went hungry, hence the empty stomach.

Her body is covered with wounds where the skin and flesh are rolled; these wounds range from deep to shallow, but none are fatal, judging by the muscle reaction, these are clearly inflicted while alive.

The wounds are very precise, apparently inflicted by a knife. There are exactly three hundred wounds on her body, none of which were fatal. She died from loss of blood due to the excessive number of wounds.”

Leaving the autopsy room, back in the office, seeing the investigation data brought by Team Two, Tang Feng sighed, his brow showing anxiety.

”The victim’s shoe prints around the crime scene still accompanied by those small holes, obviously indicating these two torture murders were committed by the same murderer, despite different methods, akin to a cat playing with a mouse.

This murderer is so violently depraved, and the two cases occurred so close in time, the frequency is too rapid.

Given the swift actions of this murderer, we must expedite our case-solving speed to prevent more victims.”

Liu Shuangshuang reviewed the later female corpse investigation data: ”No matter the case, a murderer always has some patterns.

Even a psychopath, when choosing victims, tends to target those who trigger their urge impulse, so what triggered the murderer’s killing intent between these two victims?

The previous Hao Guoying was merely an ordinary introverted man, and this woman was revealed to be an office worker, living a refined and elegant life, adept at making friends, versatile and social, charming.

She and Hao Guoying, with completely disparate social circles, could hardly have intersected. So, what could be the common trigger point between them that sparked the murderer’s killing intent?”

Liu Shuangshuang was baffled, having worn out the two victims’ dossiers and still found nothing of use, she put down the documents and stood up, turning to walk outside.
