At this point, Old Master Lin's tone was obviously downcast and depressed.
"This case is very strange. It started off as a missing person case. The main cause was that in an urban and rural fringe area of North Tranquility District, the only daughter of a grocery store owner suddenly disappeared for an entire day.”
"At that time, there weren't so many tall buildings in the North Tranquility District of Longyang City. It was just an urban and rural fringe area with eight villages within ten miles. It was very desolate.”
"A young lady in her twenties suddenly disappeared. Isn't this killing her?”
"However, about two days later, the little girl suddenly returned home.”
"But that young lady had just met her mother for a day. The next day, on the way to the Criminal Investigation Unit to close the case, she suddenly disappeared mysteriously.”
"Then, about three days later, a fellow villager in the North Tranquility District dug up a corpse in a remote location of his field by chance.”
"That fellow villager originally thought that his house's guard dog was barking crazily at that piece of land because there was a treasure!”
"Who would have thought that someone would bury the corpse in his vegetable field.”
"After digging it out, the fellow villager was frightened and quickly came to the police station to report the case.”
"The police station informed us that there was a murder case. I brought my colleagues from the criminal investigation department to the scene.”
"When I arrived, I found that the corpse belonged to a young girl. She was naked, and her face was disfigured.”
"So we sent someone to call the lady boss over to see if it was her daughter.”
"As expected, although the corpse was beyond recognition,
But the lady boss still recognized it."
"Then, the most bizarre thing happened.”
"According to our previous judgment and the forensic examination of the corpse, it proves that this little girl has been dead for six to seven days.”
"This is strange!"
"That little girl clearly appeared three days ago. She was talking and laughing, and she met quite a number of people.。”
"Why did he suddenly become dead for six or seven days?”
"Could it be a ghost?"
"At that time, many people said that the little girl's soul came back that day just to see her mother.”
"But how can we believe in this feudal superstition?”
"So we concluded that there must be a problem.”
"At that time, we guessed that the little girl who appeared later might be the murderer. She destroyed the face of the corpse because she was afraid that the true identity of the corpse would be discovered.”
"And after she showed up, she disappeared again. It might be because the lady boss called the police and she was afraid.”
"So she ran away again."
"If it wasn't for the dog barking from that fellow villager, he would have dug up the corpse. In another month or so, the corpse would have rotted so much that it wouldn't be visible.”
"Then we can only treat it as a missing person case.”
Xiong Zhuangshi's eyes were as big as copper bells as he shouted loudly,"
"Wow, good guy! There was even someone who pretended to be someone else and became someone else's daughter. What was she trying to do?”
"Lacking motherly love? A mother?"
Lin Nan listened to the case and kept thinking in his mind.
Meanwhile, Old Master Lin shot a glance at Xiong Zhuangshi in annoyance, and took a puff of his pipe.
"Don't interrupt. Are you still listening?"
Xiong Zhuangshi immediately cowered, and hurriedly forced a smile as he said,"
"Listen, listen! Please continue!"
Old Master Lin moistened his throat and continued,
"Because of the murder case, we took it very seriously at that time. We immediately filed a case for investigation. The search and investigation in Longming City were very intense.”
"Unfortunately, before we could find the identity of the murderer, a second similar case happened.”
"It's the same young girl in her 20s. Her face was also disfigured, but I can't find her identity.”
"Because there are no suitable missing persons.”
"However, we found fingerprints on the girl's body, which matched the fingerprints left by the murderer of the previous missing person case when he disguised himself as the boss's daughter.”
"Exactly the same."
"At that time, we understood,"
"It's her! It was her again! She didn't hide anything at all. She must have disguised herself as this young girl and lived with her identity.”
"As long as we find out the girl's identity, we will know the murderer's location.”
"Unfortunately, we failed. In that era, it was harder than ascending to the heavens to find out the identity of a faceless female corpse.”
"At that time, there weren't many cameras on the streets, DNA technology wasn't perfect, and the fingerprint database hadn't been established yet.”
"There's not even a place to start.”
"There is only one clue, and that is that the murderer left fingerprints.”
"Unfortunately, fingerprints are useless!”
"Without a fingerprint database, we can't use fingerprints to identify the murderer.”
"At that time, we could only use manpower to search, compare, and search.”
"But soon, we all regretted it, perhaps because we pushed too hard.”
"The second missing person case has appeared."
"After verification and fingerprint comparison, I confirmed the identity of the second dead girl.”
"Unfortunately, when we faced the parents who reported the case to look for their daughter, we could only tell them that your daughter had died a long time ago.”
"Their daughter died before she went missing.”
Old Master Lin took another puff of his cigarette, his face full of bitterness.
"At that time, we didn't know how to face the parents who had lost their daughter.”
"However, this is not the end, but the beginning of a nightmare.”
"In the following period of time, a similar case would happen every once in a while.”
"The same disappearance, the same fingerprints, the same murderer.”
"She is like a demon in the dark, taking the lives of young girls one by one, taking their faces and creating family tragedies one after another.”
"Helplessness, pain, and hatred were the descriptions of us at that time.”
"As the guardian of the people, I am unable to protect them.”
"This is the shame of every police officer.”
"She is like a ghost in a strange story, snatching the faces of young girls one after another and living with their faces.”
"At that time, in order to reduce the negative impact, we could only seal this matter up and make it a strange story.”
"Let time erase her existence."
" Later on, with the development of science and technology, the frequency of the Painted Ghost's crimes became lower and lower. Later on, there were no similar cases for more than ten years.”
"Some people think she's dead, while others think she's evolved.”
"From a painting ghost who changes his identity at any time, he has evolved into a hermit crab who has been pretending to be one for a long time!”
"The former abandoned his identity at will, while the latter occupied the magpie's nest and lived under someone else's name and identity.”
"At this moment, she might be using someone else's name and identity to pretend to be someone else and steal someone else's life.”
