485 The Assistant’s Case Analysis (1/2)
At the office of Bai Muchuan.
When Xiang Wan entered the office, his laptop was on; his eyebrows furrowed in thought as he read her analysis.
Xiang Wan tilted her head. ”I'm here.”
Bai Muchuan waved at her when he saw her waiting at the door.
”Come over here!”
He sounded businesslike.
Mm, that's good.
Xiang Wan actually felt relieved, and she sat before him.
”What do you think about my analysis?”
”Very good.” Bai Muchuan nodded.
”In what way is it good?” Xiang Wan's eyes lit up and looked at him without batting an eyelid.
”Well…” Bai Muchuan propped his forehead and saw her little expression that was waiting for his praise. ”You're very naughty.”
”…”
”You're naughtier than any of the profilers out there!”
Uh! Xiang Wan pouted. ”But you think it's good?”
Bai Muchuan raised his eyebrows. ”Simple and easy to understand!”
She did the profiling report with a lot of effort.
Besides a detailed personality analysis, there was also the motivation analysis, character relationship chart, details and mind maps. She even matched every character with a cartoon avatar.
Bai Muchuan covered his face then rubbed his hands together with a half-smile.
”After looking at the accompanying pictures, I suddenly realized…”
He paused.
Xiang Wan's eyes opened wide. ”What?”
”When these people get a cartoon avatar,” Bai Muchuan smiled. ”Each and every one of them becomes adorable.”
Xiang Wan rolled her eyes at his remark. ”What kind of look are you giving me? These avatars are clearly ferocious! How can they be adorable?”
Bai Muchuan waved his hands to let her sit nearer and pointed at the screen. ”Just look, aren't these ferocious avatars adorable?”
Xiang Wan glanced at his side profile, pouted, and refused to admit it.
”What are you looking at me like that? It's ferocious alright?”
”Ferocious? It's comical to me. What should I do?”
Xiang Wan observed his expression.
There wasn't any exaggeration in them, and she looked down in dejection.
”… Alright, I'll redo that. Aye, I actually wanted to give you a surprise when I used the cartoon avatars.”
”I'm really surprised.” Bai Muchuan smiled at her and pointed at his own head. ”Looking at a report like this is not boring but even refreshes my head!”
Xiang Wan gave him another scrutinizing look.
Bai Muchuan touched her cheeks while he chuckled. ”Silly girl, I mean it.”
Huff! Xiang Wan felt relieved. ”You scared me. Fine, continue to give me feedback then. Is there anything else about the report?”
Bai Muchuan looked at the report while nodding. ”You're very thoughtful. The report is very constructive!”
Before Xiang Wan wrote her analysis, she had received the information relating to the case. Prior to sending the report via email to Bai Muchuan, she had also read the autopsy report in detail.
First, she concurred with Bai Muchuan's thought that the four cases involving the ”zombie” drug were just a part of Operation Heaven's Wrath. The foreign forces that were in cahoots with the Dark Clan, supplied the Dark Clan the newly developed drug that could cause widespread panic—which was probably their aim.
The thing to note here was that the drug was new.
This was because it was not the usual ”bath salts” that they knew of, the composition of the drug was different.
Regarding that, the forensics team even did a detailed report on it.
Xiang Wan's point of focus was the fourth ”zombie” case.
Which was Xuan Yue's case.
She had thought that the case might have been similar to the first three, but with obvious differences.
Hu Bandao and the other two victims met very skillful perpetrators since they directly bit the victims' throat at the critical spot that took them out directly. Although the perpetrators knew nothing about their actions, it was a fact that they had killed someone in one bite with precision. The only exception was Shiliu's attempt to kill Xuan Yue since it didn't conform with the other cases regarding this aspect. Even if Xuan Yue was very alert, there were still doubtful areas that seemed illogical.
The first point: Why didn't Shiliu attack when the movie was showing?
Why did she only attack when the movie had ended and both of them were walking down the stairs to leave the theater?
The second point: In the first three cases, when the killing took place, the movie was still showing. Hence, the theater was dimly lit. That factor attributed to the fact that the surveillance footage was not clear at all. Because of such vagueness, it was more likely to create a panic effect psychologically in people's minds…
Xuan Yue's case differed greatly from the previous three cases.
When the movie ended, the lights came on and the surveillance camera filmed the entire attack bright and clear.
It felt like… it was a deliberate effort to leave behind some evidence.
