Chapter 1026: A Psychopath Killer Who Sucks Out People’s Brain

In Quan Jue’s opinion, nothing was more important than Chi Jiao’s meals.

Seeing that he was serious, Chi Jiao quickly reached out to stop him. “No need. We’ll go together after we’re done here. Officer Huo is waiting for us. It’s too rude for us to leave now.”

“Alright, let’s get this done as soon as possible. Then, we can go for lunch.” Quan Jue wrapped his arm around Chi Jiao’s shoulder and strode towards Huo Chen.

Huo Chen’s heart turned cold when he saw how loving the two of them were.

“Officer Huo, we have something very important to do next. Please finish this as soon as possible.” Quan Jue took out two mints from his pocket and fed them to Chi Jiao.

Seeing him peel the wrapper and stuff the mint candy into Chi Jiao’s mouth, Huo Chen felt even more bitter. “Alright, come with me.”

He brought them into the police station and headed straight to the morgue.

Quan Jue and Chi Jiao soon saw the victim’s body.

“The victim’s name is Chen Rao. He’s a male, 28 years old. According to the information, he’s an Esper with special abilities. However, Chen Rao’s ability isn’t very strong, so he didn’t join 117. We’ve briefly investigated the victim’s background and close contacts. He’s an illustrator and doesn’t usually interact with many people. He was found dead in the bushes in the park. The time of death was between 11 PM to 12 AM last night. The cause of death is a missing heart.” Huo Chen lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.

The corpse’s chest seemed to have been torn apart. It was a bloody mess. The space where the heart was supposed to be was empty, and dried blood could be vaguely seen.

“This wound looks like a massive tear. The murderer must have come into contact with the deceased head-on and suddenly attacked him.” Quan Jue analyzed.

“Looks like the other party is also an Esper. However, I cannot sense Chen Rao’s Esper aura at all. Is his brain damaged?” Chi Jiao observed the corpse and realized that there was spinal fluid flowing out of Chen Rao’s nostrils and ears.

Spinal fluid came from the brain, which meant that Chen Rao’s brain was probably damaged.

“It’s not damaged, but it’s gone. The murderer not only dug out his heart but also sucked out his brain. Although it’s only a preliminary analysis, we suspect that the murderer sucked out his brain and swallowed his heart,” Huo Chen said slowly with a solemn expression.

Chi Jiao and Quan Jue’s expressions changed at the same time.

How hardcore was this psychopathic murderer?

“Chen Rao’s Esper aura has completely disappeared. Could it be related to this?” Quan Jue asked.

Normally, even up to two or three days after an Esper died, their Esper aura would still linger on.

During this period, other Espers would be able to sense the magnetic field fluctuations of the deceased Esper.

Chen Rao had only been dead for less than a day, but his body no longer gave off any magnetic field fluctuations. His consciousness had also dissipated completely. It did not make sense.

“I can’t be sure yet. However, there’s indeed something wrong with Chen Rao’s corpse. I’ve heard of perverted Espers swallowing hearts and brains, but this is the first time I’ve seen an actual victim. It’s fine if the other party has a grudge against Chen Rao, but if the other party is especially targeting Espers, the murderer might act again.” Chi Jiao analyzed calmly.
