Chapter 342 Police Dog Chase

Chapter 342 Police Dog Chase

"What happened?"

Looking at the empty sand, everyone was still a little unable to react.

Lin Xinyi's expression became extremely solemn:

I stared at him for most of the afternoon, but I didn't find anything strange about him.

And it is impossible for him to follow the other party to the end of the world just based on the somewhat unfounded suspicion that "the other party is not attracted to Belmode".

Otherwise, if he continues to follow him regardless of any signs, sooner or later Manager Lin will be sent to a mental hospital due to "paranoia" and the crime of tailgating.

But I didn't expect that this time there was more than just groundless suspicion.

Just a moment later, something really happened.

This is really hard to guard against.

"Although the beach is dark and deserted, there are so many vehicles and pedestrians on the road next to it."

"Originally I thought it was impossible for a murder to happen here, but Masahiko Michowaki attacked the female tourist in a place like this."

"She must have discovered something on him, realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, so she caused trouble in advance!"

"The guy showed his true colors in a panic and took the risk of doing something in such a busy place. He probably also lost his position at this time."

"We still have a chance."

Thinking of this, Lin Xinyi immediately turned around and told everyone around him:

"It's too late to explain the details."

"Kyogoku-san, hurry up to the venue and bring Caesar over."

"Chris, help me find a car, the sooner the better!"

"We have to catch up with Masahiko Michowaki as soon as possible - the female tourist is in his car now!"

"this"

Everyone looked at each other.

Kyogoku reacted very quickly, and he knew that Lin Xinyi's solemnity was not groundless.

So he opened up his posture without hesitation and ran with all his strength towards the fireworks display venue to find Caesar who was left watching something in the venue.

There was a gust of wind, sand and air waves along the way.

Drivers driving on four wheels on the road were dazzled and their scalps were numb. They only thought that the flashing black shadow was some kind of ghost that appeared at night.

And Belmode was also not slow in his actions.

She hurried to the roadside and picked out a seven-seater SUV that looked valuable at first glance among the cars parked on the roadside.

No one else could see her movements clearly, and the car door was opened.

As if he was driving his own car, Belmod straddled the driver's seat with a natural expression and graceful movements.

Within a few seconds, the car was ignited and started.

Conan, Lin Xinyi, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko all crowded into the car.

And not long after, a vigorous figure suddenly ran back from the direction of the fireworks display venue.

Kyogoku Makoto ran at full speed, carrying Caesar who was stunned by the strong wind, and swept over like lightning.

When the man and the dog galloped onto the car and met everyone, Caesar's fluffy yellow and black hair was blown in one direction.

"Drive quickly!"

"Follow the direction where Michowaki Masahiko left!"

Lin Xinyi urged him to drive while holding Caesar on his body and gently stroking his head to calm him down.

Belmode kicked the accelerator and the vehicle sped out.

It was only then that Lin Xinyi had time to tell what had just happened:

"When I got to the sand, I found signs of a struggle."

"The footprints in that area are extremely messy and have different shapes."

"Some of the footprints are complete and some are incomplete, with different directions and alternate overlaps. These were obviously left by the prisoners when they were fighting against the victim."

"The female tourist was probably knocked unconscious by Masahiko Michowaki, put into a car and taken away."

"Knocked out?"

Mao Lilan asked with great concern:

"Mr. Lin, how are you sure that the lady just fainted?"

"Instead of...already killed?"

"No, she is most likely still alive."

Lin Xinyi raised a piece of rag in his hand:

"Because I also found this rag from the scene."

"This rag is of the same material as the clothing the female tourist wore when she left the beach. It should have been torn from her body by the murderer."

"Judging from the relatively neat rips and long edges of the rags."

"This is just the corner of the cloth that was left after the murderer tore it off - he tore off a longer piece of cloth from the torn cloth."

"I purposely tore out such a long strip of cloth, obviously."

"The murderer accidentally revealed his true identity on the beach and knocked the victim unconscious. In desperation, he used the roughly torn cloth strips as ropes to restrain the victim's hands and feet."

"Lest the victim struggle and resist after waking up, which would prevent him from continuing to commit the crime."

His analysis made everyone feel at ease a little bit.

"But."

Belmode did not forget to raise objections while driving:

"Are you sure the victim was taken away by him?"

"Michiwaki Masahiko was the only one in the car at that time."

"Perhaps the victim had escaped after the incident, and the strip was accidentally torn off during the struggle and left at the scene."

She wasn't very enthusiastic about going to rescue people.

Lin Xinyi liked to battle wits with the invisible and intangible god of death so much that she nervously stared at a stranger all afternoon, but she thought he was being nosy and it was hard to understand.

Lin Xinyi's tone was still very firm:

"No, he must have taken him away."

"I carefully looked at the footprints at the scene——"

"When you entered the scene of the fight, there were the footprints of two men, but when you left, there were only the footprints of one man."

"Although there is a cement-hardened roadbed near the sandy area, if the victim escaped from the cement ground, there would be no traces visible to the naked eye."

"But the problem is, there's something wrong with that string of men's footprints!"

He paused slightly and continued:

"That string of footprints was obviously left by Masahiko Michowaki."

"When he left the scene, his left step was longer than his right step, the abduction of his left foot increased, and the abduction of his right foot became smaller and even adducted."

"The width of the left step becomes narrower, the width of the right step becomes wider, and the pressure of the two feet shifts to the left, showing the characteristics of downwind pressure."

"In addition, the right foot was pushed inward and there were push marks, and the left foot was pushed outward and there were forcing and twisting marks."

"These are enough to explain:"

"When Masahiko Michowaki left, his body was clearly leaning to the left, and his body's center of gravity moved to the upper right."

"There is only one reason why this happens:"

"That's when he left the scene with something heavy on his right shoulder!"

The place was empty except for a bunch of footprints and a rag.

In this case, it is naturally self-evident what the heavy object that Masahiko Michowaki was carrying on his right shoulder when he left:

"After he knocked the victim unconscious, he tied his hands and feet and took him back to his car!"

"We didn't see the female tourist in the car when we passed by, which means she was probably hidden in the trunk by Masahiko Michowaki."

"And if Masahiko Michowaki wants to take her away like this, I'm afraid."

A gangster kidnapped a strange woman he had never met.

It's nothing more than seeking money, sex, or satisfying a perverted desire to kill.

Less likely to seek wealth.

Because Masahiko Michowaki first targeted Suzuki Sonoko, but he was only stopped by Kyogoku Makoto.

He obviously selected targets at random on the beach, rather than targeting the victims in advance and preparing for kidnapping and ransom.

As for seeking sex, it’s unlikely.

At that time, Masahiko Michowaki had already used his handsome face to deceive the victim.

If they were just asking for sex, the victim would probably give it to them voluntarily, and there would be no need to use force.

In this case, there is only one possibility left for Michowaki Masahiko.

"He wants to kill someone!"

"And it's an extremely bad random killing!"

Lin Xinyi's expression became more solemn:

"He was very skillful in hooking up with his victims. He was accidentally bumped into his true identity on the side of such a popular and bustling road, but he didn't completely lose his position."

"Instead, we took action decisively and took advantage of the darkness on the beach to subdue the victim before he could cry out for help."

"Such a sophisticated and decisive approach."

"I'm afraid this is not the first time this murderer has committed a crime."

"He should be a serial killer, and his purpose is just to kill people for fun!"

As soon as these words came out, the image of Michowaki Masahiko became even more terrifying.

Mao Lilan couldn't help but become increasingly worried about the victim's safety:

"Then do we still have hope of saving her?"

"Michiwaki Masahiko has been driving away for several minutes, how can we catch up with him?"

"Don't worry too much."

Lin Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and explained:

"Actually, this is a good thing."

It was impossible for him to follow Masahiko Michowaki all the time.

If he takes the victim back to his residence at night before committing the crime, or two days later, he deceives the victim into a deserted place before committing the crime.

Faced with this kind of serial murderer who kills randomly, Lin Xinyi has trouble tracing him even if he wants to.

But now, Michowaki Masahiko was unexpectedly forced to take action in this busy city.

There were cars coming and going on the nearby road, and he was so frightened that he fled in a hurry and had no intention of dealing with the scene.

"Rags of the victim's body were left at the scene."

"Caesar can use rags to track the scent of his victims."

"And this coastal road has a sharp increase in traffic volume due to the fireworks display, and the road conditions are relatively congested. Masahiko must not be able to escape quickly."

"If we go after him now, there is a high probability that we can catch up."

It is generally impossible for police dogs to track criminals who are driving away.

That's because when people walk, the soles of their feet touch the ground, and gas molecules escape from the soles and stick to the ground.

Under normal circumstances, if there is no wind or rain, this smell can last for 24 hours.

But if the prisoner is sitting in a car.

The body is not in direct contact with the ground, and gas molecules will not adhere to the ground like walking.

Although the air inside the car is connected to the outside world, the human body odor escapes and floats in the air, and will be dispersed by the wind in a few minutes.

But things are different now.

Lin Xinyi reacted promptly and quickly launched a pursuit.

Michowaki Masahiko had only escaped for a few minutes at this moment.

The smell diffused on the road should not have completely dissipated, and it can still be identified and tracked by police dogs.

Lin Xinyi touched Caesar's head and put the rag under his round nose:

"Caesar, it's up to you!"

The second is later
