Chapter 208
Meanwhile, on the other side.
In the forensic autopsy room.
Several people are dissecting those two corpses.
A forensic pathologist recites while dissecting:
"Death turns us into angels, growing wings from our shoulders that were once like the talons of a crow."
"Does he think he is God?"
"Any drunkard who has had a bit too much can convince himself he is God."
"God created angels, and Jesus loved fishermen."
"The serotonin in the wounds is increased, much higher than free histamine."
During the idle chatter.
A forensic pathologist reaches a conclusion.
"She died about fifteen minutes after being skinned."
"The powder residue on the neck of the soda bottle confirms it is an anesthetic."
"Whiskey and soda with a dose of anesthetic, praying at the feet of God."
"Prayer is indeed the most common form of supplication."
But Will, who is watching the situation from the side, expresses his own opinion.
"They aren't praying to him, they are praying for him!"
"He is very afraid!"
At this point.
A forensic pathologist asks in confusion:
"What would someone capable of doing this be afraid of??"
But Will turns to ask someone else:
"What is in his vomit?"
"Dexamethasone... this drug is used for tumor patients..."
"Gamma-4... a steroid used for inflammation..."
"Anticonvulsants for epilepsy, radiation for chemotherapy..."
"The killer has a brain tumor!"
As he speaks!
In the room.
Everyone’s face is filled with astonishment!
And Will also states his own view at this moment, analyzing the killer’s psychology!
"He is afraid of not waking up once he falls asleep."
"So he created angels to guard his sleep!"
Suddenly!
Everyone’s heart sinks!
Never would they have thought the killer’s reasoning...
would be so insane and strange!
Such a motive.
Who could have imagined it?!
And those victims... they didn't even know the killer!
Just to seek peace of mind for himself, he murdered two innocent passersby?!
He turned them into the likeness of angels!
And placed them at the foot of his bed to guard his sleep?!
This.... this is simply too cruel and too insane!!
【Holy crap.... what kind of lunatic is this...】
[Just because of fear, you dispose of other people's lives at will?!]
[This... is too scary!!]
[These two victims don't even know the killer, right??]
[Because you have cancer, you take other people's lives at will?!]
[With such a cruel scene, does he sleep peacefully??]
[Such a person deserves to die!!]
[But as the condition gets worse... he will definitely commit crimes again, right!!]
And just as the viewers expected.
They soon discovered the second crime scene!
A corpse was hung high on the scaffolding in the alley.
The same modus operandi, the same cruel skinning!
Like an angel spreading its wings to fly!
"Why make it into an angel?"
"This is not the angel in the Bible, his angel has wings!"
"Angels in sculptures and paintings can fly."
"But the ones in the Bible can't, does his inspiration come from real life?"
"His thoughts are contrary to him, and no one helps him."
Following the conversation between Jack and Will.
A police officer at the scene also discovered something unusual!
On the ground.
Not just the victim's clothing.
But also a pair of bloody objects!
"Someone had a cheap orchiectomy..."
"Doesn't look like the victim's..."
"Could it be the angel maker's?!"
Soon.
The discussion among several police officers made countless viewers freeze for a moment!
The killer... actually cut off his own testicles?!
What is this situation?!
And Will also explained.
"Looks like he's not just creating angels, he's planning to become an angel."
"Angels don't have genitals."
Instantly.
Everyone was stunned.
And instantly understood the killer's idea!
And Will continued.
"He's accepted reality, or rather, he's bargaining!"
"Has he finished making the angel, or just started?"
On the side, Jack asked.
But Will shook his head.
"I don't know."
"How does he choose people to attack?"
"How would I know? Go ask him."
"I'm asking you now."
"You're the boss of the Behavioral Science Unit, Jack!"
Instantly!
Will's tone rose sharply!
Clearly very dissatisfied with Jack!
The tone was full of impatience and resentment!
"If you don't agree with my point of view, why don't you think of the answer yourself?!"
In an instant!
Will's outburst stunned everyone at the scene!
Everyone couldn't imagine.
That the usually gentle Will would argue so fiercely with Jack?!
Is this.. still Will?!
And the fierce argument between the two also shocked all the viewers.
Will's attitude...
Clearly not right!
He trusted Jack very much before and had a good relationship with Jack!
Even saying.
Will joined the FBI's investigation team at Jack's invitation!
And now.
2.0
Will actually seems to have a meaning of falling out with Jack?!
In an instant.
All the viewers thought of an existence that had been provoking the relationship between Will and Jack!
Hannibal!!
It was Hannibal who had been intentionally or unintentionally instilling negative information about Jack into Will!
It was also Hannibal who had been blaming Will's psychological state problems on Jack!
Nowadays.
Will seems to be really resisting Jack's questioning!
【My god... they are really arguing!!】
【Why has Will’s mood suddenly become so unstable??】
【Could Hannibal’s sowing of discord have really taken effect?!】
【It’s clearly the case!!】
【Hannibal’s words are like thorns, stuck between Will and Jack!】
【Is this the terror of psychological suggestion...】
【Not to mention Hannibal is a psychiatrist himself!! He is proficient in psychology!!】
【For a psychiatrist to sow discord... it’s really easy!】
【Will didn't even notice the thorns in the words before accepting Hannibal’s point of view entirely!】
............02.....................
Countless viewers are still sighing from the bottom of their hearts....
In the scene.
Will and Jack, who once trusted each other immensely.
Now have conflicts and estrangement because of the case!
Although they haven't completely broken up yet.
It is already imaginable.
In the near future.
Will will begin to completely doubt Jack’s motives and whether everything he has done is worth it!
Before long.
Will arrives at Hannibal’s office for psychological counseling.
While taking his medicine.
Will talks to Su Chen about the case and his current situation.
"It’s hard to lie still while worrying that you might accidentally fall asleep."
"I have to think, and listen to the sound of my own breathing in the darkness and the faint sound of my eyelids blinking."
"I dream much more frequently now than before."
At this point.
Will sighs, also worried about his own mental state.
But Su Chen comforts him:
"At least in your dreams, your personal safety is guaranteed."
"You’ve given up self-control and stopped struggling."
"Yeah, before I fall asleep, I even think about wrapping myself tightly in a sleeping bag..."
"But..."
Will laughs at himself:
"That sounds like a poor man’s version of a straightjacket."
Will’s complexion is a bit ugly.
And Su Chen, sensing that Will’s state is very poor, changes the subject:
"Have you determined how that angel-maker chooses his victims?"
"The world in his eyes is different from the world in others' eyes; he can see whether you are good or bad, or at least he thinks he can."
"So God gave this person the ability to see through people’s souls?"
"God didn't give him X-ray vision; he gave him a tumor."
Looking at the ornaments in the distance, Will says while walking:
"He’s just someone with a brain problem!"
"You are no different from that murderer."
"Does my brain have a problem too?"
"You want to feel that peace and tranquility, and the angel-maker wants it too. He wants to feel the most subtle peace in his heart, and then have that feeling linger around him endlessly."
"He will definitely be disappointed!"
"You have accepted the reality that such a feeling might not exist, but the angel-maker is still searching bitterly."
During the conversation.
Su Chen says something shocking.
"If he has ever come close, he will search again."
He compares Will to the angel-maker, even stating directly that they are people with the same pursuits.
It’s just that Will has accepted the status quo.
The angel-maker has not.
And listening to Su Chen’s comparison.
273
There is no sign of anger on Will’s face.
Instead, there is a bit of loneliness.
As if the disappointment in his heart has also been seen by Su Chen.
He cannot refute it.
"I tried to recreate his way of thinking to find his pattern."
Su Chen continues:
"Instead, you find yourself trapped in a behavioral pattern you can't break through? You know you have a choice, right?"
"The angel-maker will be destroyed by the fantasies in his own brain, but you don't have to suffer the same fate."
