Regarding the Xu Baping case, that person had also expressed opinions, but focused on the criminal psychological analysis of Xu Baping, concluding that he was the only child in his family, suffering from both psychological and physical trauma, with two factors contributing to his perversion. As for Xu Baping's methods of committing crimes, he only mentioned one sentence: crude and simple, lucky. He didn't elaborate further.
Xu Mengshan licked his lips: "Could it be him?"
Yin Feng said: "Let's look at another one."
The owner of the third IP was quite interesting; they changed their ID almost every so often, sometimes using alternate accounts, so some of their posts gained popularity while others went completely unnoticed. However, with Guan Jun around, all these dozens of IDs were compiled onto a single sheet of paper.
Among them was even an ID called "Xu Baping's Grandmaster," which made all three of them perk up.
Looking at the content of that person's posts, they had expressed opinions on various serial murder cases, but the one they discussed the most was the Xu Baping case. Almost every discussion thread related to this case had one of their alternate accounts participating.
Despite coming from a grassroots background and having no formal education in criminal psychology, the insights they conveyed were remarkably profound.
In another reply, they said: "Xu Baping's methods, by today's standards, are simply not up to par."
They also said: "What a pity. His intentions were good, but he lacked even the basic qualities of a killer. This case could have been made into an unsolved mystery; if it wasn't cracked back then, it would never be cracked."
In response to such remarks, netizens reacted with curses, curiosity, and even admiration and awe.
As they read, the expressions of Yin Feng and the other two grew increasingly grave.
"Look here!" Xu Mengshan pointed at one particular content.
You Mingxu focused her gaze and saw that the person mentioned: "...My grandmother lived in the same neighborhood as Xu Baping. When I was a kid and visited my grandmother, I often saw him. Once, I even saw him carrying a bag, following a woman. Unfortunately, my grandmother pulled me away shortly after. Later, I found out he was going to kill someone. It's a shame I didn't witness it firsthand and could only imagine based on news reports. However, my grandmother also knew him and told me a lot about him."
This made the person fit another profile condition Yin Feng had outlined!
Reading this, Yin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, while Xu Mengshan outright slapped him and said: "Holy shit! It really might be this guy! So he did see Xu Baping before and almost witnessed him committing a crime! He's also a crime enthusiast, and his views on Xu Baping align perfectly with your analysis!"
Yin Feng smiled faintly and only said: "All roads lead to Rome."
You Mingxu was also pleased and asked: "Did Guan Jun manage to get that person's address?"
Seeing her smile, the amusement in Yin Feng's eyes deepened as he pointed to the last line of handwritten text at the very end of the stack of documents: "Guan Jun copied it here. At this location, he was still online yesterday."
You Mingxu's heart skipped a beat. Looking at that line of handwriting, it was written with such fluid and skilled strokes, a hundred times better than hers and Xu Mengshan's. She couldn't help but freeze—suddenly wanting to curse "holy shit" too! Is there anything in this world that Guan Jun can't learn or do well!
"Let's move out!" You Mingxu said.Xu Mengshan nodded, though with some hesitation. "Is this really okay? We're heading over without any evidence, just because someone posted about this case online."
You Mingxu shot him a sidelong glance. "We'll know once we check it out. Has the sketch of the suspect been completed yet?"
Xu Mengshan perked up immediately. "It should be ready soon! I'll follow up. If so many clues point to the same person, who else could it be? You're right—let's make a move first. If it turns out not to be him, we can treat it as gathering information and come back."
You Mingxu nodded and quickly assembled the team before heading downstairs to depart.
Yin Feng followed behind her, his expression calm and composed. After a moment's thought, You Mingxu asked him privately, "How confident are you?"
Yin Feng glanced at her. "One hundred percent."
You Mingxu felt a mix of elation and inexplicable irritation. Such a thorny, serious, and complicated case—if he cracked it with just one wild behavioral prediction, it would feel downright bizarre. Wouldn't all their previous efforts be rendered useless?
Little did she expect Yin Feng to be so perceptive. The moment she fell silent, he understood exactly what she was thinking. He pinched her cheek reassuringly and said, "Don't be discouraged. I only have theories, not evidence. Even if we find the person, it'll still be up to you all to work hard and gather the proof."
You Mingxu: "..."
Should she feel honored, honored, or honored?
