Chapter 140 Paul Mirand

In Fang Jiating's office.

Sarah took out a file bag and consciously hung the photos in the file on the office blackboard.

Grayson pointed to the first set of photos. "This is the first case we've had involving a bathtub serial killer. At first, the bathtub was set up to look like a suicide."

"He also left a last message."

"But after our analysis, we found out that this person didn't commit suicide, but was murdered!"

"The recording was made by the murderer under duress."

"We searched the scene and the murderer did not leave any clues at all."

"Including fingerprints, hair or other evidence."

“So the case became an unsolved case.”

He looked at Fang Jiating and waited for his explanation.

Fang Jiating stretched out his hand: "Go on, since you have confirmed that this is a serial murder case, if I want to build a profile of the murderer, I need to know more cases."

Grayson thought it was right, and just as he was about to continue, Brown suddenly asked:
"Fang, if it were you, how would you solve this case?"

Ok?
Grayson and Sarah looked at Fang Jiating at the same time.

Fang Jiating took the file and studied it carefully: "If this is a case I'm handling, I will solve it within 72 hours of the occurrence of the case."

“This is prime time to solve a crime.”

"If we miss this time, it will easily lead to an unsolved case."

The three of them nodded in unison.

Fang Jiating pointed at the photo and said, "From your description, I can only analyze a little bit."

"This is not the first time this murderer has committed a crime."

"His modus operandi was so sophisticated that he left no useful clues."

"It's impossible for a first-time offender to do this. Even the most mentally tough criminals will hesitate a little when killing their own kind."

"Of course, passion killing is another matter."

"This case obviously does not meet the characteristics of a crime of passion - the victim was forced to record a suicide note in advance."

"I'll create a perfect crime scene, leaving no clues for you,"

"Then the clues I can deduce are as follows—"

Grayson, Sarah, and Brown listened attentively.

Fang Jiating is recognized as a detective by the Eagle Sauce.

His method of solving cases is obviously a great reference for everyone.

"First, this is not the murderer's first case. We should check the files to find the original case."

"It doesn't matter if you can't find it. There are always similar cases. If you still can't find it, then just put this aside."

"Second, the murderer is a man! Or a very powerful woman."

"I didn't find any signs of a struggle at the scene."

"This is not normal."

"Unless the victim knows that he has no chance against the killer, even if the killer has a gun, the victim will think of resisting."

"Third, the murderer is probably between thirty and forty years old."

"No clues were left at the scene, which shows that the murderer is very strong mentally."

"And this cannot be checked without sufficient experience."

"Fourth, the murderer has extensive experience in counter-detection."

"I suspect he had a similar work environment to ours, or one that intersected with ours."

"Fifth, I am quite interested in the recording of the murderer forcing the victim."

“There’s a lot of meaning in this.”

Grayson, Sarah, and Brown stared at Fang Jiating in amazement. Sarah couldn't help but say:

"Fang, how did you figure out so much information?"

Fang Jiating was slightly stunned:
"How much? Not much, I suppose."

"That's all what the file tells me."

"It's a pity that I can't go to the scene to investigate. Mind you, this is not meant to offend you,"

"I really enjoy the feeling of investigating on the front line. The scene always tells me something interesting."

Having said that, Fang Jiating was silent for a while. Although he possessed advanced forensic identification skills, he always felt that something was missing when looking at the files.

Doubts welled up in my mind.

He frowned visibly.

Grayson, Sarah, and Brown didn't bother him.

The three of them looked at each other. They knew that Fang Jiating was strong, but they didn't expect him to be this strong!

Just looking at a set of photos,
There are also files.

So many things can be analyzed.

The three of them were at a loss. Are profilers so magical?
But they have also communicated with the profilers of the Eagle Sauce family, and it is obvious that they are not that powerful!
Or maybe it’s not that the profilers of the Eagle Sauce family are weak, but that Fang Jiating is too strong?

Grayson was very excited.

This is the best!

He came across half the planet.
Isn't it just to seek Fang Jiating's help?

The more clues Fang Jiating finds, the better!

This way, the possibility of catching the murderer is much greater.

Fang Jiating stared at the text version of the victim's last words on the file, frowned and asked, "Are you sure that the recording is the victim's voice?"

Grayson and the others were stunned, and Brown asked in confusion: "Fang, what's the problem?"

Fang Jiating nodded: "There is a problem."

"Indeed, this will looks exactly like the real thing!"

"And the files above also told me that when you heard this will... you almost believed it."

"It was only after an autopsy that we found out it was a homicide."

"Then the question is—"

"The voice in this recorder is really the victim's words..."

"I'm afraid the deceased is using the murderer to end his life!"

Fang Jiating was very amused: "I sense a taste of self-destruction from this will."

clam?
Self-destruct?!
Grayson and the other two were all shocked.

Fang Jiating said to them:

"You should have a backup, right?"

"If there is any, ask your colleagues to find the victim's family."

"Let them listen to see if the voice is indeed that of the dead."

"Whether it is or not, it is still very helpful to investigate the case."

Grayson immediately took action: "Nick, take the recording of the first victim of the bathtub murder case to find the victim's family and confirm whether the recording is of the deceased!"

Nick from Eagle Sauce went there immediately.

Fang Jiating was lost in thought: "I am basically sure that this is not the recording of the deceased."

“This should be the murderer’s recording.”

"But what interests me is that there is a clear tendency towards self-destruction in the recording."

Fang Jiating looked at everyone seriously and said word by word: "This murderer really wants to commit suicide!"

"What's especially strange is that... he feels guilty towards his mother!"

"If you find any clues to the murderer, then..."

"We can find out what happened to the murderer's mother."

"Perhaps it will help you solve the case."

Sarah was puzzled: "It's just a forged suicide note by the murderer. Is it necessary to take it so seriously?"

Fang Jiating shook his head:

"Perhaps this is not a forged will,"

"Maybe this is the murderer's last words to the world?"

……

For a moment, the office fell into silence. Fang Jiating's words were so shocking!
Some guests from the Eagle Sauce group couldn't accept it.

After a while, Fang Jiating said, "I see there is another case. Please continue."

Grayson murmured, "Fang, maybe you are right."

Fang Jiating looked at Grayson with confusion, "What do you mean?"

Grayson sighed, "We actually found the murderer, but he got away. I was never clear about the murderer's intentions, but now I know for sure."

Fang Jiating smiled and said, "Don't rush to explain, let's move on to the next case."

Brown then explained: "The second case is exactly the same as the first, same bathtub, same phone recording."

"There are also no clues about the murderer."

"Except for one thing—fingerprints!"

Fang Jiating smiled and said, "It will be easy if we have fingerprints. We can find out who the murderer is through fingerprints."

Brown smiled bitterly and said, "That fingerprint is not the murderer's. It's Grayson's."

Fang Jiating looked at Grayson in surprise: "He is not the murderer! He does not have the tendency to self-destruct!"

Fang Jiating pondered for a moment, "You must have come into contact with the murderer and he must have extracted your fingerprints!"

"That is to say..."

"This murderer should be one of the witnesses you looked for in the first case."

"The model maker?"

Grayson couldn't help but applaud: "That's right!"

Brown was surprised and said, "Fang, your reasoning ability is amazing."

Grayson and his team also knew a lot about the case, but it just took too long.

Fang Jiating thought of this matter almost instantly.

Everyone knows that every second counts when solving a case.

The sooner we get clues, the sooner we can solve the case.

the most important is……

The more likely you are to catch the murderer.

The seventy-two hours of golden time are not just talk.

Fang Jiating shook his head slightly: "There is nothing to lament about this. All my reasoning is based on previous reasoning."

"I said it before - the murderer is a self-destructive person."

"Now, I don't know why he has this self-destructive streak."

"But it doesn't prevent me from making this judgment."

"I think even if he gets caught, he won't care."

"I am afraid……"

"You won't catch anyone alive."

Grayson and others were shocked again:
"Fang, are you saying... that when we get close to him, he will commit suicide?"

Fang Jiating nodded:

"should be!"

"I am becoming more and more interested in this boss now."

“There are a lot of mysteries about him.”

"It's our job to solve these mysteries."

"Okay, please continue."

Brown immediately said:
"Grayson went to Mirand, the hand model maker, but he couldn't provide any clues at all."

"I don't know where the hand that Grayson touched last time has been sold to."

"Another point, we also found through investigation that the birthdays of the two victims are the same day!"

"However, their deaths were one year apart, with the first deceased being one year older than the second."

"We infer that the next victim should be someone with the same birthday, one year later."

Fang Jiating seemed to be thinking about something.

However, he didn't say anything.
Listen quietly as Brown continues.

"Later, the second deceased's credit card showed signs of having been tampered with after his death."

"We followed the investigation and found that..."

"The one who took the money was a beggar,"

“But the person who gave him the credit card was Paul Mirand, the owner of the hand model shop.

"When we went to arrest them, the Mirand family had disappeared, leaving only a blank piece of paper at home."

"What's even more upsetting is that when we came back, we saw through the surveillance video that Mirande took advantage of this time to come to the police station and waved arrogantly at the camera!"

Brown spread his hands and said, "This is all the information we have about Mirand."

Fang Jiating tapped the table lightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"interesting!"

"Let me think about it and give Mirande a good profile!"

Grayson and others were puzzled.

and many more,

Isn't this right?

Mirande has shown up, and the case is basically solved.

Why profile him?

Someone asked, the criminal has not been caught yet,
How can you say the case has been solved?

In fact, the perpetrator of the crime was found and it was determined who did it.

The case is effectively solved.

As for the arrest, that’s another matter!

Fang Jiating is a recognized detective, how could he make such a common sense mistake?

After analyzing two simple cases, Grayson and the other two were already convinced of Fang Jiating's abilities.

They wouldn't believe that Fang Jiating would make such a mistake.

In other words, Fang Jiating saw something that they couldn't see.

Grayson, Sarah, and Brown looked at each other.

They really come to exchange experiences.
Grayson has a strong desire for knowledge, so he took advantage of this period of time when he was not busy.
He brought three people from the night shift to Hong Kong for further studies.

But I didn't really want to solve the Mirand case.

Procedurally speaking, it was already known that the criminal was Mirand.

Then, just issue a wanted warrant and slowly arrest them.

In the United States, this is how cases like this are handled.

Different from the old family's idea that life is the most important thing, the Eagle Sauce family really does their best and leaves the rest to fate.

It’s best to catch it if you can, but if you can’t, just try to catch it slowly.

There are too many murders happening every day!

I'm simply too busy.

But when the three of them saw Fang Jiating's appearance,
It seems like he doesn't think Mirand is the murderer!

Grayson and the other two wanted to ask questions, but were afraid of disturbing Fang Jiating who was thinking.

Just when he was getting anxious, Fang Jiating spoke up: "In any serial murder case, the murderer has a mental illness."

"They all experienced great trauma while growing up."

"And then seek out targets to harm because of that trauma!"

"The commonality between these two cases is that date."

Grayson and the other three were moved.

date?

Fang Jiating tapped the table lightly: "It is very likely that something terrible happened on this date when Mirande was growing up!"

"His spirit has suffered indelible damage!"

"Check this date!"

“We’re going to find out.”
