Genius Detective-Chapter 967: The Final Boss
Chen Shi took it and saw that someone had sent an email to the deceased's cell phone, and what had just sounded was the alert notification.
He opened it through the evidence bag, and found a large attachment in the email which seemed to be a video.
Chen Shi handed the phone back to the subordinate and said, "Bring it back and let everyone study it together!"
He patted Tao Yueyue on the back. "You performed very well today."
"Hehe, it’s because this case is interesting!" Tao Yueyue smiled shyly.𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺
When they returned to the bureau, Lin Dongxue had also come back. Tao Yueyue described the scene vividly as soon as she saw her. Lin Dongxue said in surprise, "I didn't expect such a lot of progress all at once."
Chen Shi said, "But I think this is just the beginning."
Chen Shi summoned everyone to the conference room, turned off the lights, and projected the video onto the white screen. When the video was played, everyone felt nervous and wondered if it would be some kind of perverted video.
The video was black and white, and there was a face composed of dots in it, which seemed to have been created using some kind of video transcoding technology.
The face had its details and features blurred, and they could only make out that it was a man. The face spoke and its voice had also been modified by software. "If the person who sees this video is a policeman, it means that my mission executor, Lu Dahai, has either been arrested or shot dead."
"Who are you?!" Tao Yueyue couldn't help asking, because this person had wanted to kill her a few days ago.𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
Of course, the video wouldn’t answer. The weird face continued, “Please allow me to introduce myself. I am an observer of humanity. I observe everything about Long’ an. Of course, I also have my own real-life identity but that identity will be kept secret for the time being. You must be curious why I want to kill those innocent people. Maybe you are trying to pry open Lu Dahai’s mouth. Please don’t waste your time, because I will tell you our objective!"
The dots on that face were constantly changing, displaying the change in the expression of the speaker. He continued to say in a calm tone, "The people I killed will become criminals in the near future and kill other people!"
"What?!"
"Nonsense!"
"Simply a lunatic!"
The police erupted into a commotion and discussed fervently while Tao Yueyue's eyes widened in horror.
Chen Shi was as shocked as everyone else. He never dreamed that there would be such a criminal motive. In order to hear the words of the "observer of humanity" clearly, he made a gesture to signal everyone to be silent.
The observer of humanity continued, "You must find it unbelievable. The conclusions I reached and the targets of my choice were not subjective guesses, but precise calculations. Before putting them into practice, I carried out a great deal of objective observation and sample analysis. You may have heard of the names of these samples. They are Gao Xiaohui, Wu Hao, Deng Zhongming, Zhuo Xuan..."
The names he calmly recited happened to be murderers who had been arrested by the second criminal police team over the past two years.
The observer of humanity said, "When these people were still ordinary people, through the calculation of their life functions, it could already be determined that they would kill others, and the accuracy of the predictions reached 100%! Human beings aren’t as complicated as you think. As long as there are enough parameters and a set of reasonable algorithms, a person’s actions in ten or twenty years can totally be accurately predicted! I should have observed this city calmly and objectively, but I saw an endless stream of cunning and cruel criminals. Most of the time the police just play the role of a trash collector. I have to do something for Long’an to curb the persistently high crime rate. I have cultivated a group of enforcers, who are loyal and reliable, and at the same time low-profile to eliminate potential criminals for me, protecting kind and innocent citizens."
"What right do you have?! What right do you have to maintain that those people are criminals?!" Old Zhang stood up agitatedly and roared at the video.
The observer of humanity blinked slowly and smiled, "Officer Zhang, please don't get agitated!"
"How come?!"
"There is a surveillance camera in the conference room!" someone exclaimed.
The observer of humanity continued, "Don’t bother looking for it, everyone. This is just a video recorded in advance. There is no surveillance camera in your meeting room. As I said, I’m an observer of humanity. I know the behavioral patterns, habits and personality characteristics of everyone in the second criminal police team. I know about Captain Chen’s tortuous experiences, and I predicted all your reactions! These are life functions, a set of precise, rigorous and rational calculation models of human behavior. Just like myself. I’ve killed people, but it comes from the purest rationality and the purest motive: to save those who would have passed away unfortunately! I know you won’t agree with me, and I don’t expect it. After all, you are limited by your own perspective and the so-called faith in justice. You can continue to investigate this case, but it will be in vain. From this moment onwards, I will put all executors on standby until you give up the investigation on the 27th day. When you can no longer find any clues, I will continue to carry out my mission to make this city’s Zhou Tiannans and potential Zhou Tiannans disappear! Because I am an observer of humanity!"
The video ended here. No one stood up and turned on the lights, no one spoke, and everyone was in an immense state of shock.
Chen Shi heard the sound of a chair moving and turned his head to see that Tao Yueyue had run out. He and Lin Dongxue hurried out after her.
Tao Yueyue ran to the end of the corridor alone, holding her own life function in her hands. Her tears slid down and hit the piece of paper. Seeing the two chasing after her, she lifted her tear-filled eyes and said, "It turns out that Liang Zuoming and I are the same as Zhou Tiannan. We are all evil to our bones, so he wants to 'eliminate' me!"
"Yueyue, how can you believe that man's nonsense? If you believe it, then you’re a fool! Human destiny is in one’s hands! Sister has personally seen you slowly getting better every day. You can't possibly kill people!" Lin Dongxue said.
Tao Yueyue shook her head desperately. "I had dumped my ex-boyfriend. That was what I had said for the sake of face. Actually, he got together with a close friend of mine. I hate them both to death. I really wanted to kill them. I spent days and months in the library, just to find a perfect way to kill them! Uncle Chen, I’m sorry, I know what my nature is like better than anyone else. I don’t want to continue studying at the police academy. I am not qualified to be a police officer at all!"
Chen Shi said, "I also know about your nature, because we’re the same kind of people. There are countless people I have wanted to kill. I have always feared my dark soul! But everything is a double-edged sword. This brain for crime can also be used to conquer crime. Moreover, I love you. I believe you will grow into an excellent person! Destiny is not calculated by a bunch of numbers and formulas. That person is just looking for a justifiable reason for his own self-satisfying behavior! If you believe it, you lose, understand?"
Tao Yueyue threw herself at Chen Shi and burst into tears. Chen Shi gently patted her back. "Let us join hands to catch this lunatic, okay?"
Tao Yueyue nodded.
