Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 955 Corpse Field

It is rare for a person's body to be processed immediately after death. It usually stays in the mortuary for two or three days. You know, it will be handed over to the funeral home after making sure that the body will not be revived suddenly. The night watchman in the hospital mortuary took Mills and Anthony said while visiting the gloomy corridor, Sometimes the doctor misdiagnoses, or the corpse is just suspended animation. When I was on my first vigil, a corpse sat up by itself, so scared that I almost peed.

I know this. Anthony said enthusiastically to the night watchman, In the 18th century, 'corpse traffickers' were also called 'resurrectionists'. They specialized in stealing corpses from cemeteries and selling them to surgeons at high prices, leaving An empty tomb is like the person buried in it resurrected, for them an unguarded cemetery is equivalent to a ready-made corpse field, and even surgery students will do the business of stealing corpses.

The night watchman gave Anthony a strange look.

Don't listen to him. Mills pushed the night watchman. Take us to see the corpse that was just delivered today.

Brother, I don't know what you guys are going to do, but I don't want to lose my job. The night watchman turned around, eyeing them both suspiciously.

What do you want?

The night watchman rubbed his index finger and thumb at Mills.

Don't ask me for it. Mills yelled at Anthony, and Anthony looked unmoved, so the night watchman simply didn't leave.

After a stalemate for about a minute, Anthony had to take out his wallet and gave him two more green bills with the portrait of Benjamin Franklin on it.

The night watchman shrugged and led them past two corpse racks, which were filled with corpses covered in white cloth like shelves, and finally stopped in a compartment against the wall.

The night watchman pulled back the white cloth, revealing Angela Warren's lifeless face, she just looked very pale, her lips were slightly parted, as if she had something to say.

Enjoy your time, gentlemen. The night watchman sniffed, turned and left the cubicle.

Have you seen her mother? Anthony asked.

Not yet. Mills turned his face away.

Anthony turned his gaze to Mills.

There are still brain waves for 37 hours after the heart stops, but the existence of the soul is a poetic speculation, David, I thought you were used to death.

She's innocent, Mills said, turning his back on Anthony and Angela.

You don't think she deserves to die?

There are many people who are more damned than her.

I wish I could say that she went to a better place, like heaven, but I'm a doctor, not a priest, and the number of corpses that could be legally dissected in the Middle Ages was too small, so there was a 'resurrection', the Enlightenment During the period, anatomy finally got rid of the shackles of religion and ushered in unprecedented prosperity. In order to slow down the decay of corpses, anatomy courses were opened to the public in various universities. Generally, anatomy courses were held on the cold Christmas day, and a corpse would be divided into more than a dozen classes. The dissection, first of the whole body, then of individual organs and various tissues, lasts for about two weeks, which has almost become an annual festival. However, with the optimization of the death penalty system, some lesser criminals such as theft are no longer Sentenced to death, the number of death-row inmates has dropped sharply. Medical students must receive training in anatomy if they want to be qualified to practice medicine, so corpse theft began to appear again. Sometimes thieves found female corpses, in order not to let her know People identify them, dissectors peel off their skin, there was a killer 'Buffalo Bill' in the 80's...

I know who he is! Mills said grumpily. Are you giving me lessons, Doctor?

Psychoanalysis is similar to dissecting the human body. In the 1960s, murderers chose people they knew around them. At that time, psychoanalysis was useless. After the 1980s, murderers chose people they didn't know. Then At that time, psychological profiling began to come in handy, and the FBI's consistent style is 'motivation + process = murderer', do you still think Scat Davis is the murderer?

Why did this shift happen? Mills asked.

Did no one tell you?

Mills didn't answer.

Society is changing too fast, and not everyone can adapt to this change. Patients with depression often lack a sense of belonging to life and feel that they are outside the world. The whole world is not real. It is similar to schizophrenia, but depression is easy. Depressed, pessimistic and disappointed, they kill themselves in the end, and there are very few schizophrenic patients who are really violent, but once such people appear, they will create very tragic murder cases, not only for the patient's family, but also for the patient. The society has a heavy negative impact. The killer of the seven deadly sins does not have schizophrenia. He does not have delusions and hallucinations. He thinks he is a hero or a savior. He judges himself as a sinner and accepts your trial. He wants to drive you crazy. Turn you into a paranoid 'judge'.

God. Mills covered his head in pain.

Do you have headaches or insomnia? Anthony asked. Sometimes it feels like Trish is still alive.

Shut up! Mills said furiously.

You can leave. Anthony said, If a normal person finds that some topics make him uncomfortable, he will do so. Why don't you leave?

Mills stared at the doctor for a moment, then finally looked away.

What did you see, Trish? the doctor asked.

This doesn't explain why the murderer chose strangers. Mills calmed down when he turned his gaze to Anthony.

Because the media reports came out. Anthony said with a smile, Generally, nine out of ten women are victimized by acquaintances. Whether it is violence or murder, the probability of a stranger harming a woman is only 1%, but in 99% of the cases, the media But it is exaggerating and exaggerating this 1%. I remember an example where a woman had 10 silver coins. If she lost one, she would leave the nine and go to the one that was lost. A shepherd has A flock of sheep, one lost, he will go to the lost one, 'I know what you want to see, I know what kind of stimulation you want, so I will give you the story you want to see', Compared with being wary of your acquaintances, friends, and colleagues, it is much easier to be wary of strangers. In the news that people come into contact with, the reports of strangers committing crimes are infinitely enlarged. These reports are created for those who have a sense of dissociation from life. By example, do you know why Trish opened the door to the Killer of the Seven Deadly Sins, David?

Mills was dazed for a moment, then shook his head.

New York was a new environment for her, it was difficult to adjust to, he knew you, he pretended to be your friend, but you didn't know who he was, your personal information was exposed, he knew where your house was, And your past, changing from a uniformed police officer to a detective is a good opportunity for promotion. You finally don’t have to sit in a big office like your former partner. You have your own office, but the room is not real. The one belongs to you, and there is a retired old policeman in it, he is the one who let you start studying, right?

You perverted monsters, Mills swore in disgust.

I am a 'healer', not a 'judger'. If you need to pry it open to treat a bleeding wound, you will feel pain, but it is better than leaving it to rot. Anthony looked down at Angela's Face If this is a murder, it is probable to suspect that the murderer is someone you know. David, your police instinct is still there, but do you believe Leigh Allen is the murderer?

Mills was lost in thought.

You have no direct evidence that the man who walked into the police station with his hands up, covered in blood, was the murderer of 'five innocent people'. Anthony said, If he's a fake, David, then you Just kill an 'innocent' person who wants to be famous.

How do you...

As the 'Seven Deadly Sins Killer' said, your personal information is not so difficult to find, David, I read your file, there are many people who are interested in the 'Seven Deadly Sins Killer', and psychoanalyzed him, but I But he took a fancy to you. There are many revenge stories in history, such as Hamlet. The Frankish law in the Middle Ages stipulated that it is the right and duty of male members of the same race to avenge the victim. Revenge by blood relatives is an unrestrained primitive instinct, 'a warrior or a sinner', This problem troubled many soldiers. Freud said that dreams are subconscious satisfactions, so what about nightmares? Is it also satisfaction? Compared with women, men are better at spatial perception and predicting movement trajectories, such as shooting. This is an instinct In ancient times, human women were in charge of animal husbandry and planting, and men were in charge of hunting. They had to predict whether the spear would hit the prey. So is killing carried by everyone born or cultivated? Modern society has banned it compared with the Middle Ages Killing for vengeance, and dueling, is this a forward or backward?

Of course it's moving forward!

Then why were the Greeks conquered by the Romans? Anthony asked. Is civilization perfect? ​​Barbarism is useless? Do you know what natural justice is, Inspector?

You should go back to dinner with the chick, Mills said flatly.

I hope so too. Anthony stroked Angela's face gently with the back of his hand. A person with bulimia will have swollen cheeks. People with PTSD are still desperate, and I feel like I can't stand it just looking at it.
