Full of fatigue and worry, everyone returned to the FBI headquarters with heavy steps. The headquarters building stood there solemnly. The building that symbolized justice and power on weekdays seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze in Li Yi's eyes, revealing a bit of depression. As soon as he walked to the door, the guard hurriedly came up and handed over a package with a nervous look, saying that someone had left it here anonymously and his behavior was very suspicious.
Li Yi's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He carefully took the package, which felt cold and heavy, as if it contained not items, but endless sins. Under the vigilant gaze of everyone, he slowly opened the package, and in an instant, a chill came over him - inside was a human kneecap and finger bones, which were carefully pieced together into the shape of a crab, and against the pale bone color, it looked particularly hideous and terrifying. There is no doubt that this was pieced together according to the symbol of the zodiac Cancer, indicating that this was the remains of the sixth victim.
Li Yi's brows were furrowed, his eyes full of confusion and alertness. A question kept echoing in his mind: Why did the murderer do this? According to common sense, if the murderer was conducting a solemn and secret sacrifice, he should have properly collected and secretly preserved these "sacrifices" to ensure the sanctity and continuity of the ceremony, but now they were discovered openly and even sent to the FBI headquarters. This is clearly a blatant provocation.
Recalling his experience in Jerome's old house, Li Yi fell into deep thought. At that time, the black fire was fierce, and everyone in the house was completely exposed to danger, but the mysterious man had the opportunity to kill them all and completely cut off the clues of the investigation. But strangely, he just burned the evidence and then disappeared like a ghost without hurting anyone's life. What purpose is hidden behind this series of unreasonable actions? Is he trying to show them his "strength" or is there something else going on to mislead the direction of the investigation?
In order to find the answer, everyone immediately launched an investigation around the mysterious package. The technicians quickly conducted a full-scale inspection of the package, trying to extract fingerprints, hair and other possible clues from it. At the same time, other agents made every effort to check the surrounding surveillance, hoping to capture the figure of the person who sent the package. However, after a busy time, there was little gain. There was no valuable trace left on the package. The surveillance video also had a strange malfunction at a critical moment. The picture was full of snow and nothing could be seen clearly.
Just when the investigation was deadlocked, a new clue made the already complicated case even more confusing. After an in-depth investigation, they found that these bones actually came from Jerome himself! This news was like a heavy bomb, exploding in everyone's hearts. Didn't Jerome die a long time ago? Who attacked them and burned the evidence in the old house before? Is it really a dead person who resurrected and controlled all this? Or is someone impersonating Jerome's identity and carefully laying out behind the scenes in an attempt to confuse the audience?
Li Yi felt as if he was trapped in a huge maze. Every clue seemed to point to the exit, but at the critical moment, it led him into a deeper fog. He sat alone in the conference room, with case materials piled in front of him, his eyes fixed on the zodiac on the wall, trying to find inspiration to solve the puzzle from those mysterious constellation symbols. Outside the window, night fell quietly, the lights of the city gradually lit up, and the bustling hustle and bustle formed a sharp contrast with the solemnity and depression in the house.
At this time, Li Yi's mobile phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the house. A mysterious and hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone: "Do you think you are close to the truth? This is just the beginning..." Before Li Yi asked, the call stopped abruptly, leaving only a string of creepy busy tones. Li Yi held the phone, his hands trembling slightly, he knew that this battle with the mysterious evil forces had entered the most critical and dangerous stage. They must quickly clear the fog and see through the murderer's true purpose, otherwise, more innocent lives will be killed...
