The Devil’s Cage Chapter 21: Silent
Kieran carefully reviewed the information in the document about the murder of the missing person.
The information in the entire folder can be roughly divided into two parts.
Part 1: About the missing person Louver.
10 years ago, only 15-year-old Louver suddenly disappeared on the way to school.
The police have invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and have not found the other party's trace until about three days ago.
The Louver, which was supposed to be missing, even confirmed dead, appeared ten years later.
Not only appeared, but also brutally killed a taxi driver: Mente.
As for the taxi drivers who were killed, they are classified in the second part.
Ment, a taxi driver, is 50 years old.
I was killed in my own home.
The fingerprints of Louver are all over the room.
Ment is a kind person and loves to read. Apart from his divorce, there is nothing worth noting.
Of course, there is nothing worth noting about this, just the information record in the folder.
More doubts have already appeared in heart of Kieran.
"Is there anything to add to this Mr. Ment?"
Kieran raised his head and asked Schmidt.
"I know what you mean!"
"A teenager who has been missing for 10 years, when he reappeared, killed a taxi driver, there must be a relationship between the two!"
"Even, this taxi driver may be the kidnapper of the year!"
"I thought the same way, but...after our investigation, everything is normal!"
Schmidt shook his head helplessly.
"Everything is normal?"
Kieran frowned.
"Everything is normal in our eyes, so you need the help of a special personage like you who can see things with different eyes!"
Schmidt spread his hands and generously acknowledged his shortcomings.
"Let's go!"
"Let’s take a look at this Mr. Menter first!"
Kieran stood up.
Although he wanted to reject Schmidt, he stayed in the study and continued reading.
But the agreement with Nikorei made him have to help Schmidt because. This is a prerequisite for him to stay in the study.
......
The morgue.
Horizontal mortuary cabinets. Placed along the wall on one side, two dissecting tables are placed in the center of the entire room.
A long-awaited forensic doctor is standing by.
"Schmidt, if you work overtime next night, please pay me extra salary!"
After the other party came in Kieran and Schmidt. Began to complain.
"If you can get the approval of director, I have no opinion!"
As Schmidt spoke, he walked towards the side morgue.
Obviously. This is not the first time Schmidt is here.
And forensic doctor followed the pace quickly, grabbed a step before Schmidt, and opened the morgue.
"Hey. But there is surveillance here!"
"And according to the regulations, some things must be done by me!"
"Otherwise, my salary will be reduced a lot!"
forensic doctor reminds Schmidt, smiles at Kieran, and introduces himself: "Derrick. It is an honor to meet Mr 2567, your analysis of the'heart remover' is really great! If you can..."
"Okay. Derek!"
"2567 and I are here to do business!"
"Not a greeting, not a party, understand?"
Schmidt interrupted the words of forensic doctor.
"Okay, okay!"
"Ment, the deceased. At the age of 50, there were more than a dozen deaths in the whole body. The most deadly one was the one that penetrated the heart..."
forensic doctor tells while pulling the body bag.
Kieran's gaze instantly locked the body.
The other party is extremely strong.
That kind of strength is not like a taxi driver at all, but a professional wrestler.
There are extremely thick calluses on the opponent's hands. Whether it is the back of the hand or the palm of the hand, Kieran is completely imaginable. With the opponent's body shape, such palms can easily take the appearance of broken bricks.
But this kind of opponent was easily killed.
There is a penetrating wound in the opponent’s chest. From the front chest to the back, the incision is smooth and neat, directly penetrating the heart.
It shows the sharpness of the weapon and the skill of the person using the weapon.
However, Kieran pays more attention to the remaining knife wounds on Mente.
Each knife is neither deep nor shallow.
It's roughly an effect that makes Mente painful but not fatal.
"Louver is torturing Mente!"
Kieran came to this conclusion.
On the premise of this conclusion, if Ment and Louver's disappearance have nothing to do with it, Kieran is the first unbelief.
However, there is another question.
"The fight between Louver and Menter is definitely not silent. No one in the surrounding neighborhood hears a voice or screams?"
Kieran asked.
This is not mentioned in the previous folder information.
"No!"
"I asked all the neighbors around Mente, and no one heard screams and fights!"
Schmidt answered very positively.
"We should take a look at Mente's house!"
"Derrick, thank you for your help!"
Kieran said, after thanking forensic doctor, he walked out.
"This is what I should do!"
forensic doctor smiled and waved to Kieran.
The Schmidt is out of the morgue.
The relationship between the two is destined not to need such a greeting.
......
Ment lives at 155 Ceylon Street.
It is a street where low- and middle-income families are concentrated.
They cannot reach the real middle class, but they do not want to go to the slums, so they are all concentrated here.
Therefore, Ceylon Street has two characteristics.
There is a little bit of ‘chaos’ as well as regular police patrols.
In short, it is a safe environment.
The surrounding residents are also kind.
However, because of this, it was only after Ment was killed that it caused an uproar.
With some messages, people become terrified.
The police station had to increase its police force.
Kieran has seen two fixed simple sentry boxes and a mobile patrol from the street entrance to Ment’s residence.
"We explained enough!"
"But the residents here are still uneasy. They think that a serial killer who is comparable to the "heart-hunter" killed Menter!"
"It should not be the poor child of Louver!"
Schmidt said with a helpless face.
"The residents here are familiar with Louver?"
The tone of Schmidt makes Kieran ask subconsciously.
"Uh!"
"The disappearance of Louver at the beginning was as sensational as the killing of Menter now!"
"And now the two are combined... I can already imagine what news will appear in the newspapers recently!"
Schmidt nodded and replied more and more helplessly.
In fact, Kieran has seen some journalists crouching around with their cameras.
Some of them even pressed the shutter towards him and Schmidt.
"Go away!"
The Schmidt who got off the car drove these reporters with a bad tone~IndoMTL.com~ In exchange, the reporters pressed the shutter more and more.
Kieran shook his head.
He finally understood why Schmidt did police chief for ten years, but he didn’t get any chance of promotion.
With such a temper, it is strange to be promoted.
As Schmidt yelled at reporters more and more at Wrath, Kieran crossed the cordon and pushed the door into Ment’s house.
With Schmidt coming together, it is the best pass.
No patrol officer will stop you.
As soon as he entered the door, Kieran's brow furrowed.
