That afternoon,
Chicago Police Department, director's office,
Old Joe, the sheriff, sat at his desk and waited patiently for the director to finish the case investigation. After the other party put the documents back on the desk, he said:
"There are too many things wrong with the case received this morning. It's OK to say if it's just ordinary street fighting or revenge among rogue gangs..."
"But..."
At this point, he did not care about the face of the director, but continued to say with a frown:
"The twisted palm of one of the dead and the same distorted pistol in the dead's hand..."
"A bullet that was obviously shot on a hard object and caused deformation, and a pistol that completely emptied the magazine in the hands of the other three dead..."
"For the four dead with criminal records in the police station, except for the twisted palm of the dead whose teeth were broken by a punch, the cause of death of all of them was the breaking of their cervical spine by hand..."
"Mr. director, although you must think I'm crazy, we received this case this morning. It doesn't look like human behavior. At least... How can normal people pinch other people's cervical vertebrae with their hands?"
"... er." in the desk, Mr. director, who is over 50 years old and has severe baldness, looked at the sheriff old Joe and said:
"Can't it be what the murderer practiced, you know... There have been such scenes in many movies."
"......." the sheriff old Joe looked at his big brother and almost didn't choke to death by the other party's words, so he looked like a fool and said:
"Can you believe the film?"
"OK, even if you can believe it, there must be some scientific basis. If people can pinch other people's cervical spine with their hands, it must be some kind of technology with fingers as the fulcrum, which is actually similar to the lever principle, and strictly speaking..... It is not directly pinched, but twisted!"
"But even so, even if there is such a technology, the level of power required is by no means ordinary. It can't be done by any ordinary person!"
"What's more, after the forensic investigation of this case, the dead man's neck has no trace of twisting at all. He was pinched by brute force from the outside. It is absolutely impossible for normal humans to do such a thing!"
"Joe, who do you think the other party is? Superman? Or captain?" the director said helplessly.
"Alas, I can't imagine that you are 40 years old, and you still think of superheroes in your mind..."
"Superheroes absolutely exist!" old Joe, the sheriff, immediately blushed and argued, "I... I've seen them before!"
"Well, well, there is..." when Mr. director saw such an old Joe, he waved his hand and said:
"What do you want me to do? If the superheroes did this case, should I transfer this case alone and say that the murderer behind this case may be Disney... Or Warner?"
"......." sheriff, old Joe.
"Does this case just go on like this, and then... It's still the same as before?"
"Otherwise?" the director asked, "in addition to these inexplicable clues, there are almost no useful and reliable clues. Can you find out the superhuman behind the case, or the murderer who disguised himself as a superhuman under such circumstances?"
"From the trace, it was obviously pinching the victim's cervical spine with empty hands, but there were still no fingerprints left on the victim's neck..."
"If the murderer is a guy obsessed with comics and disguised himself as a superhuman like that in comics when committing the crime, I guess he also borrowed the power of some scientific and technological instruments, but disguised those instruments externally as the same nature as the human body."
"After all, the superheroes in those comics do not rely solely on the power of science and Technology..."
"Chief, I will continue to track down the murderer behind this case..." Sheriff old Joe obviously doesn't intend to give up, which can give himself a chance to contact superhumans.
However, hearing what the sheriff old Joe said, the director immediately frowned and said, "no, there is no clue in this case. No one can successfully solve it. This is an unsolved case that no one can answer!"
"Besides, the dead in the case are just members of those rogue gangs. There are many criminal records on our side alone. This guy... Deserves to die!"
"Leave it alone..." old Joe, the sheriff, said reluctantly, "what if the other party commits a crime again? If the other party is really a superhuman! Letting him go is tantamount to endangering the rights of legitimate citizens!"
"Then wait until he endangers the rights of legitimate citizens!" said the director.
"Old Eli! Are you worthy of your oath?" Sheriff Joe got up from his chair in a hurry.
"Here! You should call me director! Joe! Give up those unrealistic fantasies! The case is over! If you continue to pester! Go home and reflect on yourself!" Mr. director stood up unwilling to show weakness.
Their quarrel even broke through the glass wall of the office and attracted the attention of all the police officers outside. However, since this is not surprising to everyone, no one will take the initiative to come in and persuade them to quarrel.
After all, I don't know how many years it has been. The sheriff and the director here always quarrel over some small things, but it won't hurt the friendship between the two guys. The quarrel... Maybe it's the way they communicate with the old guys.
After a long time,
Director Eli ended the quarrel with old Joe and directly ordered the other party to go home for reflection recently.
But when he looked at the case investigation documents on the desk again, he quickly calmed down his mood. Then he looked at the busy police officers outside the office, picked up the phone on the desk and dialed a mysterious number.
"Mr. Eli?"
"The case received by the Chicago police this morning should be the masterpiece of you guys. I just sent you the case information!"
"Have you confirmed it?"
"I can't be wrong. Maybe it's another guy who suddenly awakens his power and worships superheroes very much..."
"OK, I see. We'll send someone to investigate now, Mr. eli... Please don't let the police in Chicago continue to contact. If Mr. Joe has such behavior again, you should know that we're keeping it a secret..."
"Don't do anything to old Joe! He doesn't know anything! He just saw you with his own eyes when he was young..."
"Mr. Eli, Mr. Joe, this is not the first time..."
"I promise my career! He will never give you any more trouble! I will have people watching all his actions recently!"
"OK, that's the last time..."
