“He’s attempting to point out me his life.”

Bo Jinyan is standing below the sunshine.  Tall physique, extremely good-looking face, superior mind… he all the time manages to face out within the crowd.  

What Bo Jinyan mentioned is sort of a laser beam that cuts by means of the darkness.  Immediately there’s a spot to start out.  Everybody seems to be on the white board once more.  The phrases appear to turn out to be extra significant now.  They attempt to hyperlink the ideas collectively.

However Bo Jinyan can’t look ahead to them to catch up.  He places the white board marker within the desk, then he begins to talk: 

“Whipping, is probably the most direct and highly effective option to convey anger and hatred. It’s extra intense than reducing flesh or sluggish torture reminiscent of draining the blood.  Due to this fact, he hates lady.  

And normally, the reason for hatred for ladies stems from the dearth of maternity love.  Males who develop up in a wholesome and regular childhood normally stays psychologically steady regardless that they’re handled badly of their teenage years or maturity by different lady.  Due to this fact, it’s most probably that his mom deserted or left him when he was younger.

Skinning is an advanced and tedious course of.  However he managed to finish the duty nearly to perfection.  It’s not the primary time he had finished that.  It’s best to examine all of the skinning instances within the US prior to now ten years.  There is perhaps some clues there.  

Skinning suggests plunder and pillage.   Despite the fact that there’s no intercourse concerned, it’s a kind of punishment.  Maybe it’s linked to his lack of maternity love throughout his childhood. However there may be additionally a chance that he was sexually abused by an older lady in his teenage years.”

The room is quiet after Bo Jinyan stops.  Jian Yao thinks about what he says.  Most psychopaths within the US had a tough childhood.  No.1 may come from a wealthy household, however psychological injury can occur no matter background. 

Bo Jinyan continues: “He dismembered the person’s physique, and he eliminated his coronary heart.  That is additionally an indication of depredation.  He needs to remove his self-worth and satisfaction.  The person suffered quite a lot of accidents when he was alive.

Nearly all psychopaths kind their fantasies throughout their teenage years.  This man most likely represents his father.  He and his father didn’t have a detailed relationship.  I feel his father could have abused him, both bodily or mentally when he was rising up, however over a protracted time frame.  He has no respect for his father’s character or values. Emotionally, what he did to the person requires extra endurance than what he did to the girl.  Identical to the hatred he has for his father is accrued over a protracted time frame. ”

Jian Yao begins to know the distinction between the strategies he used for torture.  They’re all merciless.  However one methodology requires extra endurance than the opposite, and it’s carefully tied along with his feelings and the way he needs to precise his angers. 

That is probably the most fairly rationalization of why he used so many various methods to kill.  He carries several types of angers from his life experiences. So, that is how he’s ‘exhibiting his life’ to Bo Jinyan.  

“The previous man signifies loss of life.  He didn’t undergo any bodily abuse.  That is out of character for him.  Maybe, the truth that nobody can escape loss of life, is a pure concern that he has to reside with.  However he slit the previous man’s throat to suggest that he has the facility to manage life and loss of life…. at the very least, for different folks.

The kid and the canine signify his perilous childhood.  It was filled with struggling and ache.  The kid died of poisoning.  It’s a peaceable manner of killing his sufferer.  After the kid died, he chopped off his palms.  The symbolism of that is that he’s taking away hope.”

Bo Jinyan begins to summarise and profile: 

“Based mostly on these findings, we now have an image of him:

It’s late at evening.  However there may be nonetheless a lot work to be finished.  

After Bo Jinyan’s briefing, all the officers look impressed.  Anam walks as much as him.  He adjusts his glasses and says: “That’s unimaginable.  Effectively finished.”  Then he walks out of the convention room.  He must get some relaxation too.

Everyone seems to be gone.  There are solely two folks left within the convention room.

Jian Yao is busy typing what he simply shared with everybody onto the pc. When she is completed, she turns the display screen to Bo Jinyan: “Do you need to double test that I did not miss out something?”

Jian Yao is so pleased with her man.  The Flower Cannibal No.1 tried to mislead the workforce, however in entrance of Bo Jinyan, it’s like youngster play. 

Bo Jinyan stands in entrance of the white board.  He frowns.  Jian Yao glances at him.

He turns to Jian Yao, and offers a faint giggle: “No.  If we comply with this profile, we is not going to discover him.”

Jian Yao: “…why?”

Bo Jinyan leans again on his chair.  His fingers tapping on the desk.  

“Hum…. it’s too simple.”  He smiles mockingly. “This profile is a profile that he needs me to imagine.” 

Jian Yao’s coronary heart misses a beat: “The profile is inaccurate?  It’s a ploy to distract us?”

“No.” Bo Jinyan clarifies: “The profile is actual.  Like I mentioned, he’s temperamental pervert. If he didn’t inform me something about himself, there’s no enjoyable for him. However he assured that we received’t be capable to discover him primarily based on these informations alone.”

Jian Yao seems to be on the white board.  Bo Jinyan factors to a couple of the factors: “There are lots of people that match these fundamental factors.  We’ve got seen his skill with hacking into pc programs.  What if he modified his schooling data, for instance, we might spend quite a lot of effort and time with out discovering him. And within the meantime, he’s prepared for his second crimewave.” 

“If I’m simply an boastful professor, and depend on the profile he gave me, then I’m going to lose this recreation.” Bo Jinyan continues. “However I’m extra clever than that.  He underestimated me.”

Jian Yao smiles at his confidence. 

“So..” she ask: “What ought to we do then?”

However then she doesn’t anticipate Bo Jinyan’s response.  

He wipes all the pieces off the white board.  Then he takes one white board marker and offers one other one to Jian Yao: “What’s the hurry.  If it’s not the correct path, let’s begin once more.”

“Sorry, not but.”

Mrs.Lin pauses for some time, then she says with a low and barely coarse voice: “I’ve information.”

Lin’s Firms is larger than Yin’s Firms.  They’ve extra connections and affect.  

Mrs. Lin speaks with a low voice: “That is confidential.  The police says Yi Yang is delivered to Hong Kong.  He’s nonetheless alive, however they don’t know the place he’s.”

Yin Ziqi is relieved to listen to that he’s alive: “Thank God he’s alive.  However…”

“Ziqi.  Yi Yang’s father has had a coronary heart assault.  I do know your brother is main this investigation.  Are you able to please go to Hong Kong, and do all the pieces you’ll be able to to save lots of him.  When Yi Yang’s father is healthier, we’ll come and be a part of you.”

“Certain.  I will probably be there tomorrow.” Yin Ziqi replies.  “Nothing to will occur to Yi Yang.”

After she hangs up, Mrs Lin provides a sigh.  She is sitting on an expensive and costly couch, her eyes are stuffed with tears.

Immediately, her cellphone rings.  She picks it up.  She says with a trembling voice: “Yi Yang!  Yi Yang!”

On the opposite finish, comes the acquainted of voice of his son: “Mother, is Ziqi coming?”

“Sure, she will probably be in Hong Kong tomorrow.” Mrs.Lin asks anxiously: “What’s occurring?  I do know you don’t have anything to do with these instances.  However why are you not contacting the police?  Does he need cash? How a lot does he need?”

“Mother…. simply don’t name the police… goodbye.”

Daybreak.

When Jian Yao wakes up, Bo Jinyan is just not in mattress anymore. 

She seems to be round.  Bo Jinyan is nowhere to be seen.  His briefcase and trench coat are nonetheless on the couch.  The place can he be?

Immediately, she is scared.  She shortly provides him a name on his cell phone.

A well-recognized voice solutions after only one ring: “What’s it?”

Jian Yao relaxes: “The place are you?”

Early morning.  The roof prime of the lodge.  The wind is kind of robust immediately, and Jian Yao feels a bit of shaky whereas strolling on the concrete flooring.  She wraps her palms round her shoulders to stroll in direction of Bo Jinyan. She smiles when she sees him.

There’s a helicopter pad on the roof prime.  A big yellow circle is drawn on the bottom.  A person with a white shirt has his again to her.  That’s her Bo Jinyan. 

“Hey.” She calls him softly.

“Yeah.” He replies with out even trying up.

The roof seems to be out the gorgeous views of Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong.  However he’s not there for the surroundings.  He has a chunk of chalk on his hand.  On the ground, it’s stuffed with numbers, phrases, symbols…. and some cartoon drawings of Chen Mo.

That’s so cute.  But when the lodge workers sees this, they won’t be so amused.  

Jian Yao sits down subsequent to him.  She asks: “Why did you come up right here?”

“It’s quiet right here.” He solutions  “It helps me to pay attention and suppose.”

“Did you keep awake the entire evening?”

He provides her a disapproving look: “Do you suppose it will take me an entire evening to work this out?”

Jian Yao laughs.

He appears a bit of extra relaxed than when he mentioned they’ve to start out from scratch final evening.  

“You made progress?”  she asks.

“In fact.” He smiles.
