Chapter 531 Taking Time To Rest
- “The police did some investigations. The first case occurred ten years ago. The victim was a fifth-grade student in middle school. They had been drowned and their face was disfigured. Moreover, their fingers were chopped off. This incident happened in Yeringham.”
- Mu Xiaosheng added, “The second case occurred five years ago, at Salinsburgh. The place is two hundred kilometers away from Yeringham. The victim was a high school student. The person went missing while returning home from night classes. When discovered, the corpse was at a riverbank. The student had also drowned, and there were traces of hypnotics in their body.”
- Then, he continued speaking. “The third case occurred last month at Tayhaven. The victim was a teacher, who passed away in their house. The deceased drowned in a bathtub and traces of hypnotics were found in the body as well. The teacher's fingers had been chopped off and their eyes were dug out. However, there were no injuries on the victim's face. The police suspect that this is a copycat murder since there were some differences between this case and the previous one.” He went on, “The fourth case happened this Tuesday. It was also in Tayhaven. The deceased was male and he was a business executive. He died in the wilderness, next to a small lakeside. Similarly, the man was also drowned, and hypnotics were found in his body. His fingers were cut off and his eyes were removed. Moreover, his face was disfigured. The four cases are similar to one another, for no witnesses and fingerprints were found at the scene. The tools used to murder them were left behind. In addition, the murderer drowned them to get rid of the evidence, which proves that he is very clever.”
