The young apprentice, Ling Yaqing, brought over a latte with ice.

"Master, how's that case going?"

Ling Yaqing followed Ye Tianming like a little shadow, curiously following him all the way to his office.

Ye Tianming put down the bag and then said, "There's been no progress. Yanbo's friend's teacher doesn't recognize the writing on it either. We suspect it might not be writing at all, but some special symbols."

"What about the fingerprint?"

Ling Yaqing pressed for an answer.

She was very proactive in her first case.

"Wait for the forensic department to release their comparison results."

Ye Tianming said.

Ling Yaqing nodded, asked a few more questions, and then ran off to attend to other matters. 100

11 o'clock in the morning.

No new news came in all morning.

At noon, Ye Tianming took his apprentice to the cafeteria for lunch.

Just after lunch, we received news that another body had been found!

This time, it was discovered beneath a bronze statue in a bustling street in Tsim Sha Tsui.

When Ye Tianming arrived at the scene with his apprentice, a large crowd of onlookers had already gathered.

News of the jigsaw puzzle murder case has spread throughout Hong Kong through media reports.

Now almost everyone in Hong Kong knows about this case.

Until one madman killed someone and not only liked to bleed them, but he would also cut off a piece of skin the size of a puzzle piece from the corpse as a collection. He was a complete pervert!

Ye Tianming led his young apprentice through the crowd into the scene.

In the middle of this bustling street in Tsim Sha Tsui stands a bronze statue that is said to have some commemorative significance.

The bronze statue is of a foreigner, and Ye Tianming doesn't recognize who it is.

At this time;

Beneath the bronze statue lies a mannequin.

The dummy appears to have been knocked over, with its limbs, torso, and head scattered.

This time, there were even more corpses.

Apart from the head and torso.

A pair of hands and feet, all parts taken from a human body!

Moreover, it's a whole arm and a whole leg, no longer just half a body.

After Ye Tianming arrived at the scene, he greeted Ling Qian'er and then walked up to the body parts.

He reached out and picked up a leg.

The leg was cut cleanly, severing at the root.

There were no obvious wounds on the surface, but the blood had been drained and the leg had been treated with special medication, giving it an unusual pale appearance.

He observed it carefully, even getting close enough to smell it.

I didn't smell anything unusual.

The body parts are the same as those found in previous cases.

but...

This time, a complete right leg and a complete right arm were discovered!

This means that there may be two more victims.

It's also possible that this pair of hands and feet belonged to one or two of the four victims previously identified!

But Ye Tianming is more inclined to believe that he is a new victim.

Because when he was observing the hands and feet, he noticed some obvious differences.

This allowed him to roughly determine with the naked eye that the owner of these hands and feet was not the same person as the hands and feet that had appeared before!

Of course, specific testing with professional instruments is required.

At this time;

Gu Zechen also arrived at the scene with his assistant.

"There are new victims again?"

(acaf) Gu Zechen came over and asked.

"It's quite possible. Take a look at this."

Ye Tianming handed him the right hand.

On the upper right side, there is a wound with a piece of skin missing, and the shape still looks like a jigsaw puzzle.

"The second piece of the puzzle."

Gu Zechen said.

So far, among the body parts they have found, only two have this jigsaw puzzle-shaped wound.

However, there were no such wounds on other parts of the body.

Ye Tianming and Gu Zechen deduced that the murderer must have cut a piece of skin tissue in the shape of a jigsaw puzzle from a random part of each victim's body.

So far, they have only discovered two.

Those that went undiscovered;

It might rise to four!

The two men were discussing the remains of the corpse.

Ling Yaqing, who was trying hard to control herself and not vomit, was also taking notes with paper and pen.

Gu Zechen's assistant went to ask the police officers at the scene about the situation.

I have absolutely no desire to get close to this area.

More than half an hour later;

Ye Tianming and his team returned to the forensic department.

Then Ye Tian and Gu Zechen entered the autopsy room, first comparing the DNA of the corpse remains found that day, and then cutting open the skin of the corpse remains.

really!

They also discovered the special symbols beneath the skin.

Take a photo with a camera.

The two spent more than an hour conducting a thorough examination.

There are no other important clues.

He had just come out of the dissection room.

"How about it?"

Ling Qian'er waited for them outside.

Upon seeing the two of them come out, he immediately stepped forward and asked.

"Still the same."

Gu Zechen said.

"Is that a new victim? Or one of the previous four?"

Ling Qian'er asked.

She really didn't want to get that terrible answer.

However, when a DNA test report was placed in front of her, Ling Qian'er had no choice but to accept the result that two new victims had emerged.

Now;

The number of victims in the jigsaw puzzle murder case has risen to six!

God knows how many people this murderer killed.

Or...

How many more people did he plan to kill?

"There's still no news from the victim's family?"

Ye Tianming asked.

Ling Qian'er shook her head.

They compared all the missing persons cases within the past few months, but did not find any missing persons that matched the victim.

besides;

The hands that were discovered earlier.

They also collected the fingerprints from above to search the fingerprint database.

But the result was that no such person could be found.

Therefore, either these victims are unregistered residents.

That is, they came to Hong Kong illegally.

Either the birth was never registered.

They are both unregistered residents.

The difference is that they should be called second-generation undocumented immigrants.

In other words, the parents mentioned above were also unregistered residents and had been unable to obtain Hong Kong residency for decades.
