Wine and Gun

Bates blinked blankly, the way most people react when their friend is accused of being a psycho killer. He tried his best to say, "But, Al..."

"He fits the profile—actually, they both fit the profile, and I'm surprised no one has thought about it before," McCard said, waving his hand in a tone of voice, "Age, come to Westland. time, and even profession: Armalette is a lawyer, and he must have his own way of getting into crimes that aren't tried in public, but we've been looking for pianists among police officers; not to mention Dr. Bacchus , he's a forensic doctor, not to mention his parents are surgeons, and he certainly has a medical background."

"I don't think Al's behavior fits the theory of a serial killer's childhood traits," Bates shook his head. "What arson, nüè to..."

"That's not the only trait, if you look at Hale's Psychopath Checklist, you'll find that he fits many of them," McCard countered. Maintain long-term intimacy—"

"...Sorry," Bates interrupted in confusion, "What a mess? Really?"

Hardy glanced at each other incomprehensibly, because they had to question Albarino because of the fact that the gardener put the body on the steps of the courthouse, and Bates should not know that Albarino mentioned a scene during the interrogation. threesome.

He thought it better not to tell Bates about it.

Besides, if those two were really serial killers, those alibi would definitely be perjury, and the threesome would definitely not exist at all—but the one Cherry who testified to them had died. The car accident, in McArd's opinion, was definitely not simple, but they can no longer prove it now.

"And it's weird that Dr. Bacchus is with Amarette now," McCard continued. "In the murder case, he admitted to me that he wasn't that close to Amarette— As a result, after the pianist's sexual assault case, he was with Amalette so quickly? Both of them, shouldn't this kind of sexual assault have left some psychological shadows on the victim? "

"Because the two of them 'sympathize with each other'," Hardy gestured, his expression not very good, "Al said to me that it is because their experiences are similar that they are together. And your judgment - if they Is it true that one is a pianist and the other is a gardener, is it the kind of thing that Arjung allows Amalette to do to him?"

Bates knew what was on his mind when he said that, and they all had the same scene in mind: the bloody flesh, the letters carved by the knife, the creation of Adam.

McCard retorted: "Is that hard for a psycho killer?"

"Okay, okay," Hardy said wearily, after thinking about it, "it's just a suspicion, in fact, since we started investigating these two serial killers, we've screened out a lot of people that we think fit the side of the equation. The characters they wrote, but after investigation, they are not the real murderers. Agent McCard, it is impossible for the judge to issue a search warrant based on the 'profile matching' alone."

Bates nodded and added, "We searched Al's house during Langdon's case, and I can guarantee that there were no traces of killing anyone in his house."

"Besides," Hardy added, "I don't really think that just by Olga's line, 'Don't multiply things if you don't have to.'"

McCard waved again, as if he realized he wasn't convincing enough for the people in front of him: "She provided a good idea, we've been trying to find pianists, gardeners, The relationship between Armalette and Doctor Bacchus, but any possibility is too complicated and very confusing. But if there are only two people involved in the whole incident, everything makes sense."

"Perhaps it is," Hardy frowned as he said this, "but if you can realize it just by hearing it, why didn't Olga think of it? She came up with the concept. , but did not think of the final conclusion, do you think this is possible?"

McCard paused for a moment, then had to admit that the other party had a point.

"I don't know either," he said with a sigh.

"I have one more question," Bates raised his hand hesitantly, always feeling like a schoolboy about to be criticized in front of McCard, "that, Agent McCard, I've been wanting to ask from the beginning... aren't you supposed to be at Quantico by now?"

McCard looked at him seriously for a long time, giving him an urge to back away.

But the problem is indeed the same: it is already early March, and it has been almost a month since the accident caused by the butcher, McCard and that John Garcia should have left Westland earlier. But Bates met McCard at least twice during his visit to Olga in the hospital, not to mention this one in Hardy's office.
