Mason was found the next morning.
The homeless man called the police.
The reason was that the homeless man wanted to come to the factory to find something rich, see if he could buy some drugs, and make ends meet...but he saw a tree, a tree with falling flowers!
There is actually a tree in the building of an abandoned factory... This is not a normal phenomenon.
When I walked in, I saw a fat man embedded in a flower tree. His belly was hollowed out, filled with flowers, and almost grafted onto the tree.
The tramp was petrified.
Then the police were called.
When the police saw this scene, they were immediately frightened.
They didn't even understand how the tree was planted into the concrete ground!
As for how to graft a person into a tree... the police are also at a loss.
Even the people from the forensic laboratory were unable to remove the body because they were afraid of damaging the scene.
And I have to say that the guy who created this thing has good aesthetics. Although the fat man is fat and greasy, he is perfectly grafted with the flowers and trees, full of a kind of decadent beauty!
Just when everyone was confused.
The special department vehicle drove over.
He took over the case without saying a word. This time the Special Branch sent Jessica, Misty, Night Owl and Rorschach to deal with the matter together.
Jessica, who was half a bucket of water, was immediately stunned when she saw the scene.
She has never seen this before.
The most perverts she had ever seen were those who violated women and children, and those who went too far had some special fetishes. But this was the first time she had seen a corpse made like this.
Although Misty and Night Owl were a little uncomfortable, they behaved very professionally and quickly put on protective equipment and began to inspect the scene.
On the contrary, Rorschach did not move closer to the body, but wandered around the scene.
Then half an hour later, the three people gathered together again.
"Did you find anything?" Ye Xiao asked proactively. In this three-person group, he was undoubtedly the leader.
Misty is more inclined to be a clerk, but her management skills are not very good. Rorschach... Needless to say Rorschach, this guy has no sense of teamwork at all.
"No..." Misty shook her head, then turned to ask Rorschach: "Could it be the same person who did the case of the Colombian gang boss last time?"
Rorschach shook his head: "Not sure. But it's possible. The two cases are very similar."
If the similarity is not too high, it will not be transferred to the special department.
"Have you found anything over there? Such a killer will never commit a crime just once."
"Nothing was found..." Misty shook her head: "This guy seemed to appear out of thin air. And if such a case really happens, there is no reason why we haven't heard of it."
The police circle is really not that big.
If such a bizarre case really happened, not all police officers would know about it, but most of the police officers responsible for homicide investigation would have heard about it.
But at the current location, they have not found anything similar.
"Impossible!" Luo Xia said categorically: "This murderer's methods are very clean and neat, he cannot be a novice!"
"But we really can't find it now." Misty also knew it was impossible, but the reality was this. What could she do?
"Now we can only do an autopsy." Rorschach pondered for a moment, and then said: "I have read relevant reports. When serial killers kill, they will leave their own unique marks. It may be some kind of symbol, or it may be... Some kind of special technique. If we didn't find it, it just means that we didn't find it, so we can only rely on forensic science."
"But over there in the laboratory..."
Misty wanted to say something.
"Then go find the best!" Rorschach said.
Misty looked at Nite Owl.
Ye Xiao nodded: "I will go directly to the leader to apply."
The reason why the Special Division can become the most special department in the entire New York Police Department is because it has a backer?
The great god Kai is here. The Special Department never lacks funding and donations!
Local police departments rely mainly on two sources of funding.
One is appropriation.
Appropriation is a very magical thing, whether it is a large amount or a small amount. The police department is always short of money anyway.
The other one is donation.
This item is more of a test of leadership skills. Because appropriation requires a budget report, how much money should be spent and how much money can be spent will all go somewhere. Donation is not needed. Unless the donor has a special designation, how to use the donation is not up to each department?
Therefore, most of the welfare of the police depends on this. If your department donates a lot, you will naturally live comfortably.
This is why the police are generally very nervous about rich people.
Of course I was nervous.
They are related to the treatment of the police themselves!
If you serve the rich well, they will donate more. If you donate more, they will be able to live more comfortably. Even if the donation is earmarked for purchasing police equipment, it’s not the police officers themselves who enjoy it?
Therefore, whether the leader can get donations is an important indicator!
With Kai's support, the special department doesn't need to worry about either.
Saji has been the head of the Special Department for two years, and until now, he has never experienced what it is like to ask for funds and donations.
Appropriation?
Top quality!
Basically, the budget is approved on the spot, and there are even more!
Donate?
Just two big companies, Wayne Group and Stark Group, are making their mouths full of oil.
There is no need to consider other rich people at all.
Donate if you like!
If you are in trouble, look for Kai!
Kai's work efficiency is indeed very high.
That afternoon, the Jeffersonian Forensic Science Laboratory arrived in New York.
Currently, there are two strongest laboratories in the U.S. forensic field.
One is the Las Vegas Forensic Center.
The other is the Jeffersonian Institute Forensic Science Laboratory.
These two institutions, one is a state-funded institution, and the forensic laboratory is only one of its departments, but the Jeffersonian Association has gathered a large number of experts in various fields, such as their chief forensic anthropologist, Dr. Temperance Bunan. , the best anthropologist in the United States!
Their forensic laboratory can mobilize top experts from all fields to assist at any time.
Their comprehensive strength can be said to be unparalleled in the entire United States.
The Las Vegas Forensic Center is like a professional player, specializing in crime scene investigation. They are among the top superstars among professional players.
Both agencies are very powerful. For example, the Las Vegas Forensic Center accepts requests for help from law enforcement agencies across the country, and they are more active on the West Coast.
As for the Jeffersonian Institute Forensic Science Laboratory, it is even colder. They only cooperate with the FBI.
Generally, local police stations cannot reach them...
But the New York Police Department is different!
There is Kai!
Of course, this is not the key. Jefferson's scientists are very stubborn. Some time ago, they destroyed a government association!
Yes, there is an association within the government, a small group of congressmen who use public power to benefit themselves. As a result, they got into trouble with Dr. Temperance Bunnan... After a period of struggle, these people really overthrew the association.
The government spent a lot of effort to suppress this matter, and President Benjamin was very passive.
Of course there are benefits.
This association happens to be the president's opponents... Generally speaking, President Benjamin is very happy.
So if you really want to use your power or influence to force these people, there is a high probability that others will really be incompetent.
How about you being a superhero?
Kind of kill them!
Others are such dicks.
Fortunately, Kay had a relationship with Dr. Temperance Burnan's husband, Seeley Booth, and the other party still owed him a favor. Healy Booth was his former soldier. In the army, he once served as a sniper. Later, he was transferred to the Army and sent to Afghanistan. He retired due to injuries and PDST syndrome, then joined the federal investigation as a federal investigative special agent.
Kay had helped them a little before in Washington.
Later, Dr. Temperance Burnain, also known as "Little Bones", was framed and wanted for provoking the secret society, and Kai also helped. She was hiding in New York State at the time.
Even if the government let Xiaogu's group of people go so easily, Kai also played a role in it.
Otherwise, do you think that they overturned a group of high-ranking officials and congressmen without any sequelae? Give me a break!
The stakes involved in those people stepping down are too great. How many people want them dead!
It was Kai who stepped in and told the others that he was protecting them, so that this incident could go away.
What else?
Damn, that special investigator Booth?
Who can a petty official like this be frightened by?
If it weren't for Kai's push from behind, they would have been killed long ago.
You must know that the FBI is not merciless at all when it kills its own people.
So as soon as Kai made a call, Xiaogu packed up the entire forensic laboratory and came to New York.
…
"Wow!" Camille Saroyan looked at the tree and immediately opened her mouth. She is the director of the Jefferson Forensic Laboratory and the boss of Dr. Belen and her staff. Interestingly, she was once the chief medical examiner of the New York City Police Department, but before the New York Forensic Laboratory was established, she was directly pried away by the Jeffersonian Institution. This time it’s a return to my hometown.
Camille is a black female forensic examiner with a great figure. There were a lot of people in the New York Police Department who cared about her back then, but later I heard that she was in love with an Iranian guy.
Kai was also stunned. He had never been to the scene, and he had never even seen the photos. When he saw this scene, his expression immediately changed.
Rorschach had already noticed Kai.
He walked lightly to Kai: "Sir, do you know him?"
Kai's face looked ugly.
He didn't answer Rorschach's words, but directly picked up the phone.
The call was answered soon.
"Hey, Raven. Are the kids here?"
"Here, what's the matter? They didn't go out to cause trouble today, did they?" Raven was not surprised that Kai asked several children as soon as he came up. You must know that Kai has been very nervous about them recently and wants to know their location at any time.
"Tell them not to leave the house! Especially Liz and Keith."
"What happened?"
Raven could tell something was wrong in Kai's tone.
"Mason is dead."
"Who?" Raven really knew who Mason was. After all, Teresa and the others always went to Case's secret base to play, and Mason stayed there all the time. How could Raven not investigate.
"Mason!"
"Suck..." Raven took a breath on the phone: "But... Mason isn't..."
Raven knows Mason. Mason is a super homebody. His greatest pleasure is to make weird things. As long as he has enough Coke and pizza tubes, he can go out for a year! If Mason is killed...it means that the secret base is no longer safe.
What's worse is that they dare to attack Mason, which shows that they will not show mercy to several children.
This is a signal!
Kai Ke didn't dare to bet whether they dared or not.
If they really dared, they would actually do it. What if Kai cuts them into pieces?
I can’t even find the tune to cry!
"No matter what method you use, these children have to stay at home! I allow you to use force. If not, call Afu and Merlin! In short! I will not allow anything to happen to them!"
Kai hung up the phone directly, then waved his hand and asked Saji who was waiting aside: "Saji! Take people to Liz's house! Protect her mother... No! Take her directly to the safe house! Remember to be polite. !”
Saji naturally had no objection. This was his immediate boss and had always been his immediate boss.
"yes!"
Without any hesitation, Saji took the people and left.
Rorschach floated over again at this time.
"Director Wayne, it seems...you know something."
Kai gave him an annoyed look.
Damn it, can’t you see what I’m upset about?
Night Owl hurried over and stood between Luo Xia and Kai.
"Director...please calm down, you know Rorschach's character."
Of course Kai knew.
So he waved his hand impatiently: "I know! Do you still need to say it?"
Then Kai suppressed his anger and said to Rorschach: "It should be someone from the Rogue Gang who did it! Find them! Then kill them!!!!"
Rorschach nodded: "I understand."
Although Kai's tone sounded like he was buying a murder, Rorschach didn't care.
On the contrary, Kai's order was very much to his liking.
But everyone at the Jefferson Forensic Laboratory was a little scared. Huggins, an insect expert, microbiologist, and mineralogist under Xiaogu, said carefully: "I didn't expect that the famous Kai Wayne would be like this... It seems that he is indeed a model promoted by the government."
By the way, Huggins is a serious fan of conspiracy theories.
He was very wary of the government, especially after the secret society incident.
By the way, he's a huge Batman fan and has always been dismissive of Kai and Iron Man.
"No! Something must have happened! I know who Kai is best! He is a hero!" Booth glared at Huggins: "Also! He saves the world time and time again, always at the risk of his life. Changed it! Can this be faked?!"
Booth was a patriot...even though his ancestor was none other than John Weeks Booth, Lincoln's assassin.
By the way, Huggins is the heir to Crowver Corporation, the third largest closed company in the United States (the so-called closed company is a company that is not listed). He is a person with vested interests, but he is the most ruthless opponent of the government.
"Maybe..." Huggins whispered.
Booth immediately got angry and wanted to go up and argue.
Then both of them were grabbed by their wives.
Huggins' wife is named Angela, Angela Montenegro. As well as being an artist, she is also a skull reconstruction expert and a top computer expert. Also belongs to the forensic laboratory. Specializing in body restoration and various computer-related matters.
Booth glared at Huggins, then found Kai.
Ask what happened.
Kai was not angry this time but said honestly: "You know some of my adopted daughters, right?"
Of course Booth knew, they had met. Booth would visit every time he came to New York on business.
Speaking of them, Kai couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know if there was something wrong with my education. They had to learn to be superheroes and formed a small group of their own. As a result, they recently faced off against the gangsters. . And this one..."
Kai pointed at Mason.
"He's their friend."
"Friend?" Booth looked at the beard and greasy figure of the deceased.
You want to say that he is a weirdo, but Booth will believe it.
How many little girls can I be friends with?
"Mason is a good man." Kai explained: "At the same time, he is also a technical geek. He has been hiding in their secret base and rarely comes out. He will provide some useful props and technical support to several children. Now something happened to him, That means..."
Booth understood immediately.
No wonder Kai had such a big reaction.
"How dare you let some of your children run away and become superheroes???"
Being a superhero is not a fun thing. Every year, there are many cases where young middle-schoolers run out to do heroic things, only to be killed.
Kai shrugged: "So I said, my education method failed."
Speaking of this, Kai had a headache again: "How should I tell these children about Mason?"
With the personalities of Teresa and others, there is no need to even think about crying.
If that were the case, he should burn high incense.
I'm just afraid that if they get mad and insist on revenge... No, this is almost certain!
