Shocking the Whole Internet! You Are Not a Psychologist at All!

Chapter 35: The Strange Victims

Any top student would have excellent comprehension abilities.

When Chen Yu insisted on selling the Black Cat Sheriff Stickers to Feng Lang and Li Changjun while claiming they were ill, there was only one reason.

This was not just a sticker, but a charm.

A charm to protect their lives.

Police work is a high-risk occupation.

The two were also the Criminal Investigation Division members with the highest casualty rate.

Thinking of Chen Yu's livestream's wondrous abilities...

In addition to their professions.

Feng Lang quickly pulled Li Changjun aside and explained his analysis to him.

Li Changjun nodded occasionally, sometimes solemnly.

"Feng, go back to the station. I'll go back in a while."

"But..."

Li Changjun stared at him, and Feng Lang immediately swallowed his words.

He endured this for the flower of his love.

Before sending Feng Lang away, Li Changjun didn't forget to take a Black Cat Sheriff Sticker from him.

"Dr. Chen, is it convenient for you to close shop for a while?"

Without waiting for Chen Yu's reply, Li Changjun locked the door.

"Captain Li, do you believe that you're sick?" Chen Yu asked with a faint smile.

"Dr. Chen, there are no outsiders here. Let's be frank." Li Changjun spoke with a complicated tone.

"You said that if I didn't wear the sticker you gave me, I would die soon."

"Does it mean that I might die in the line of duty in the near future?"

"That depends on your choice," Chen Yu answered.

"If you take ten days to half a month of sick leave, you might not get ill."

"But according to your personality, you won't do that."

Chen Yu didn't answer directly, but Li Changjun had already gotten his desired answer.

"Dr. Chen, can you help me diagnose my illness? What should I do in the near future?"

Hearing this, Chen Yu raised his hand and gestured a four.

Seeing this, Li Changjun's heart was in turmoil.

If someone else stated that Chen Yu was just a psychologist, Li Changjun promised to kick that person to death.

"Dr. Chen, I heard from Feng that you charge 5,000 yuan for consultation and treatment."

"I'll pay you 10,000 yuan later. Can you give me some pointers?"

After Feng Lang's reminder and explanation, Li Changjun gradually began to understand Chen Yu's routine.

"Sure."

"Thank you."

Li Changjun was overjoyed.

He ran to the street and made a phone call for ten minutes.

Li Changjun remembered to lock the door again after returning to the shop.

He paid 10,000 yuan without hesitation.

"Dear patient," Chen Yu said with a smile, "you can tell me about your condition now."

Li Changjun's mouth twitched.

Chen Yu was indeed an actor.

He was Captain Li to Chen Yu when he didn't pay up.

After receiving the money, Chen Yu started to call him his patient.

"I haven't been eating much recently because of a case."

Li Changjun spoke in a deep voice.

"The nature of this case is horrific. It's no less than the serial murder case in Jincheng City."

"Dr. Chen, please give me a guarantee."

"After hearing this, you must not reveal a single word to anyone else."

Chen Yu extended his hand and invited Li Changjun to sit down.

He reassured Captain Li that a doctor's most basic professional ethic was keeping patients' secrets.

"There have also been serial murders in Hangzhou!"

Li Changjun's voice was low and deep.

A few months ago, a gangster was found dead at home.

Li Changjun, who was in charge of the investigation then, did not take it seriously at first.

This gangster had done many nasty deeds.

He had offended at least 80 enemies, if not a hundred.

His murder had been cruel, and it was very likely a vendetta.

Not long after, there was another murder in the area.

The deceased was a female, a secretary to an enterprise.

She disappeared on the way home, and her body was found in an abandoned house.

Just as Li Changjun was comparing the two cases, the third victim appeared.

The victim was a homeless man who died in a small alley.

"As for the fourth victim..."

Li Changjun felt a chill down his spine.

"He was burned alive."

Chen Yu added.

"Gasp!"

Li Changjun sucked in a cold breath of air and subconsciously took a few steps back.

His right palm lifted the hem of his clothes, and he was about to take out his gun.

"Please calm down, patient."

Chen Yu lightly tapped the table, reminding Li Changjun that he was seeing a doctor.

"Dr. Chen, I'm sorry. Just out of habit."

Li Changjun returned to the table and sat down.

However, his hand was kept under the table.

"Do continue," Chen Yu said.

Li Changjun frowned and continued, "Just as Dr. Chen said,"

"The fourth victim was burned to death."

"But... there were no traces of open burning at the crime scene."

Li Changjun took a few deep breaths and told Chen Yu everything about the last victim in one breath.

The fourth victim was a business owner.

Time of death, half a month ago.

At midnight that night, the business owner went home after socializing and ordered his caretaker to wake him up at seven o'clock the next day.

At seven o'clock the following day, the caretaker knocked on the door punctually.

There was no movement in the room.

The caretaker thought he was sleeping soundly and did not hear her knocking on the door.

She pushed the door open and went in to wake him up.

The caretaker entered his bedroom and saw her boss curled up on the bed.

As soon as she placed his hand on her boss, she howled in agony from the scalding pain.

Her boss's entire body was smoldering like a red-hot branding iron.

Ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the scene.

The business owner was declared dead at the scene.

The cause of death was severe burns and multiple organ failures.

The strange thing was...

There was no sign of fire anywhere in the room.

The business owner installed the most advanced smoke detector and sprinkler system in his home.

Even a small amount of smoke will set off the entire house's alarm.

Li Changjun took a few more breaths, suppressing the nervousness and uneasiness in his heart.

"When I received the news, I immediately led my team to investigate."

"I'd found some male footprints at the scene."

"These footprints belong to the same person as the footprints of the first three victims."

Four strange victims, four identical footprints.

The relevant departments immediately opened a file.

Remembering the terrible impact the Jincheng City serial murders had on the citizens, the higher-ups ordered strict confidentiality and set a deadline for Li Changjun to solve the case.

Li Changjun used every resource at his disposal to mobilize a large number of men and sophisticated investigation equipment.

So far, the murderer's age has been estimated to be in his thirties based on the footprints he left behind.

He was about 1.7 meters tall and weighed about 150 pounds.

There were no other clues.

Whether it was the time or the method of the crime, there was no pattern to speak of.

The four victims were also unrelated and did not know each other.

As he spoke, Li Changjun took out his phone and pulled out the photos of the victims.

"These four deceased people deserved to die," Chen Yu said indifferently after glancing at the corpse.

"Dr. Chen, what do you mean?" Li Changjun blurted out.
