Chapter 29: The Demon Of Jincheng

After the last comment, another paid comment appeared.

"Dr. Chen, are you talking about the small city north of Jincheng City?"

"I think I know who he is now."

"Oh my god! Is it really him?"

"It's definitely him!"

"The first victim was a wealthy man, and the second victim was a female worker."

The utterance of Jincheng seemed to have poked a hornet's nest.

Viewers from Jincheng began to "greet" all of [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter]'s 18th generations of ancestors with any and all curses.

Even after their accounts were banned for typing profanities, netizens from Jincheng City were still pouring in.

"The death penalty is too light for someone like him."

"This demon should be dismembered!"

"It's impossible even to recite all his crimes individually."

"You piece of shittttttt!"

"There were too few surveillance cameras back then. If it were today, this demon would have died long ago."

"Are you saying he's the Demon from Jincheng?"

"Because of him, all primary and secondary schools in the city have to be dismissed before dark."

"A city of a million people was terrorized by this demon for almost twenty years."

"If this bastard were in ancient times, it would not be surprising if his entire family was sentenced to death with him."

"He'd taken 16 lives! No wonder Dr. Chen said that he was a psychopath."

Everyone hated the Demon of Jincheng to their very core, even if they weren't from Jincheng City.

The Demon of Jincheng was a nickname that would make anyone tremble in fear.

In just five years, he had murdered 16 innocent people.

His methods were cruel, and his anti-reconnaissance ability was strong.

He was different from the typical cold-blooded murderer, as the Demon of Jincheng wasn't after any specific targets.

He murdered randomly.

Some media outlets even branded him as the modern-day Jack the Ripper.

Glancing at his chat, Chen Yu said, "The number of people murdered by him is more than 16."

"The first victim, the wealthy man, was murdered when his wife was eight months pregnant."

"When she returned home and saw her husband's unfortunate ending, not only did she suffer a serious mental shock, but she also had a miscarriage."

"Because of his wife's tragic death, the security captain suffered from severe depression and eventually left this world."

"Many other victims' parents and relatives have also been admitted to the hospital for psychological treatment."

"If we take everything into account, he ruined the lives of 34 people."

The inside story behind these cases was all gleaned by Chen Yu through his Heavenly Secret Strategy.

This had never been publicly disclosed, and even Jincheng City locals didn't know there were this many victims.

"I'll give 100,000 yuan to anyone who can find this bastard's location!"

"Fuck, I'll add another 100,000!"

"Is there a hacker in this livestream? Get us this demon's IP address."

"I'm in Hangzhou. Are there any locals who want to form a group with me to hunt him down?"

"I'm signing up."

"This bastard is living a comfortable life while the victim's family is still mourning. This is fucking ridiculous!"

"I never believed in karma, but I hope he will sink into 18 levels of hell forever."

The netizens' sense of justice was vividly displayed at this moment.

There were still many ongoing articles and news stories about the Demon of Jincheng because of his ability to elude the authorities time and time again.

One of the reasons for this was his high IQ, and the other was the limitations of technology during that era.

Twenty years ago, surveillance cameras were only installed in a few first-tier cities.

Moreover, there were few of them.

Even the Internet was not widely available then, let alone a DNA database.

Of course, even when criminal investigation technology was outdated, the local department in Jincheng City never gave up on investigating the matter.

The task force has had seven leaders in the last 20 years; six of them were exhausted on the front lines of the investigation.

The citizens of Jincheng City have been in a state of panic since the investigation into this serial murder case revealed that the murderer was a one-man show.

Every household had security doors installed, and almost no one dared to go out at night.

They were worried that this demon would not only kill them but also ravish them.

Any beautiful woman in Jincheng who hadn't left the city dressed up to be ugly whenever they went out.

They didn't even dare wear dresses.

"You demon! Return my cousin's life!"

"Son, the murderer has been found. You can finally rest in peace."

"I'm buying a ticket to go to Hangzhou right now. I want to witness your end, you demon!"

Following Chen Yu's revelation that [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] was none other than the Demon of Jinchen, the number of viewers in the livestream instantly broke through 1.5 million.

Most of them were citizens of Jincheng City.

Chen Yu had inadvertently created a livestream miracle; hundreds of thousands of netizens from the same city gathered in one single livestream.

"I heard that the streamer caught the Demon of Jincheng online. Is he really that godly?"

"Damn, the number of viewers in this livestream is crazy. Is this an event organized by the Jincheng City Association? Why are all the viewers here from Jincheng IP addresses?"

"They're not viewers; they're victims."

"Is this the modern-day Jack the Ripper? He sure doesn't look as terrifying as the rumors say."

"Top comment, are you sure it's appropriate for you to say such things at this moment?"

"Recommendation to restore the punishment of death by a thousand cuts."

"This is the first time I've heard of such an excellent recommendation."

"I'm new here. Should I line up to start cursing?"

Facing overwhelming pressure, [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] panicked.

He gritted his teeth and began to quibble.

"Are you trying to label me a murderer just because I exposed you for being fake?"

"You're ruthless!"

"Fakes will always be fake. No one will believe a false accusation without any evidence."

He had come on this livestream intending to crack down on a faker.

Never would he have thought that his perfect crimes would be seen through one day.

"Do you believe your string of murders was flawless?"

"You must've known that there's no such thing as a perfect crime in this world."

Chen Yu sneered.

"For your first six crimes, you were extremely careful and did not leave any clues behind."

"By the seventh time, you'd gotten arrogant."

"You've left a lot of your personal traces at the scene."

"Because of technological limitations, the police employed the most primitive investigation method available, searching everyone and everything."

"They compared fingerprints and footprints using a magnifying glass, one by one."

"When the police start collecting Jincheng residents' fingerprints, you run more than a hundred kilometers away and live in another city."

"But that didn't stop you from committing more crimes."

"You took a bus back to Jincheng City for your next few crimes."

"After you commit murder, you will immediately leave on the next bus."

"Due to the heinous nature of the crimes you've committed, Jincheng City's bus station became the first in the country to require the registration of personal information to buy a ticket."

"In a bus station storeroom, there are still records of your ticket purchases from that year."

"At that time, the Jincheng City police did not have a big data analysis system nor a biological information collection database."

"But now, we have all of these."

"The traces you left behind when you provoked the police will soon become the rope to hang you."

Bang!

A loud noise came from outside the door, and many figures rushed in.

Four or five police officers pounced on [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter], who was sitting firmly in his chair.
