The genius is on the left, the lunatic is on the right

Chapter 30 Who is the Murderer
At noon on this day, the police on duty in Anne Arundel County, Annapolis, USA received a report.A man named Dean Pantazes said on the other end of the phone that he was horrified to find his wife murdered in his garage.The man's state of panic was transmitted from the other end of the phone line, making the police on duty a few streets away feel a little tingly.

What happened?

When the police arrived at the scene, the man who reported the crime was sitting at the door of his house, his eyes glazed over, and he was obviously very frightened.The police quickly searched the scene. The dead man named Clark, aged 43, was the wife of Dean Pantazes. The deceased was shot twice, one in the head and one in the neck, both of which were fatal. .The murderer was obviously very familiar with the situation of the Pantazes family. He entered the garage and hid next to the car. After Clark entered the garage, the murderer shot her dead.

The Pantazes family did not lose any property, which ruled out the possibility of burglary, murder, and murder; although Clark died in blood, he was neatly dressed and had not been sexually harassed, so the possibility of robbery and murder was naturally ruled out .So who is the murderer?Why did he kill Clark?Is there any hatred in this?

Looking at the sad Mr. Pantazes, Officer Robbie who was in charge of the case secretly vowed to solve the case as soon as possible, give the family an explanation, and at the same time restore the peace of the town.

He quickly organized personnel and began to investigate the family situation and social relations of this family.

After investigation, it was found that Clark and Dean were an enviable couple.They fell in love at first sight more than 20 years ago and got married. After marriage, they have a son and a daughter, and now they both go to school elsewhere.

The couple not only have a strong relationship, but also support each other in their careers. They run a company together, and the business is booming.The place where they live now is the wealthy area of ​​the city, but half a year ago, Dean had already bought a ranch and built a luxurious villa there.If Clark hadn't been killed, it is estimated that they were already planning to move into the villa.

Who personally destroyed this happy family?Could it be that he maliciously murdered because of his hatred of the rich?

……

A month later, the police suddenly came to Dean's house and showed an arrest warrant to arrest Dean on charges of murdering his wife Clark.

This simply surprised everyone!Nobody believed at all that a good man like Dean, a successful man, would pick up a gun and murder his wife.

Friends of Dean united to testify to Dean's character, and Dean and Clark's 19-year-old son also said: "If my father ever passed the idea of ​​​​killing his wife in his mind, he would definitely end it first." own life!"

Dean also kept defending himself: "I love Clark so much, she is more than my life, how could I kill her, and why should I kill her?"

At this time, the police claimed that they had an important witness. In fact, this witness was also the real murderer, but she agreed to help Dean kill Clark under the temptation and instigation of Dean's high cash.

When the police called the witness, the audience and the jury let out a sigh, because the woman who came up was a gaudy, scantily clad prostitute, watching her staggering steps, obviously hungover.

How could Dean associate with such a person?

The woman's name was Jemel, a drug addict and prostitute with an ex-con in the police department. She claimed that a friend of hers who was also a drug prostitute introduced her to Dean.Dean cut to the chase and asked her to kill a woman named Clark for a price of one hundred thousand dollars.For the sake of money, she agreed without hesitation. At that time, she didn't even know that Clark was Dean's wife.

Jemel confessed to the crime, including how Dean drove her in advance to show her the location of the house, how he told her the combination of the garage door lock, and how he put the gun that had been prepared for a long time behind the gasoline can in the lower left corner of the garage. ...all the timing is seamless.The police retrieved Jemel's call records and found that she did make frequent calls to an unknown number in the week before Clark's death.

However, Dean categorically denied that he didn't know the phone number at all, nor did he know the woman in front of him. When their eyes met, the inspector found that Jemel's eyes were familiar with a little bit of surprise. She was obviously I have seen Dean before; but Dean's eyes are very strange, which cannot be pretended.

If Dean really didn't know Jemel, then he must have been framed, but how to explain the garage code thing?According to Dean and the two children, few people know the password of this garage, even Clark's mother does not know the password of their garage, because relatives come and go directly through the gate, and only their own family members can enter and exit the garage.

But Jemel said with certainty, and in order to confirm this, the police found the "intermediary" in Jemel's mouth, that is, the prostitute Larry who introduced them to each other.

Larry's testimony was basically consistent with Jemel's, but she provided more information to the police.She said that Dean came to her to do this at first, but she was afraid to kill, so she introduced Jamel to Dean.She also provided the police with an important lead. She had met and served Dean before, in the red-light district of Eastern Boulevard.But when she was asked to tell the specific time, her memory was confused due to long-term drug use, and she couldn't recall it at all.

The place Larry is talking about is the famous red-light district in Annapolis, where fish and dragons are mixed, haunted for a long time by people of all bloodlines, gender orientations, and all kinds of eccentricities, of course, accompanied by drugs and sex trafficking.

The closer you feel to the truth, the more confusing the case becomes.

The last court session was held on a rainy day. Regarding the identification of the two prostitutes, Dean actually shed tears in pain. He howled hysterically: "Who? Who are you instigated by? Why did you kill my wife?" , and want to blame me? Who is it?"

At this time, all the lights in the trial court were suddenly extinguished, and then violent heavy metal music rang out, and a strange fragrance wafted over where the defendant was standing, like a thriller that spanned time and space, and someone Dance provocatively in front of Dean and throw the sexy lingerie in Dean's face.

"Hmph, hum..." At this moment, the defense lawyer sitting next to Dean suddenly heard a sneer from his nasal cavity. This voice came from Dean, yes, but it didn't sound like Dean at all. En's voice.

"You demons!" There was a roar mixed with anger and unwillingness in the court, the music stopped, and the lights were turned on again. Everyone was surprised to find that Dean clenched his fists, his face twisted, and angry eyes radiated from his eyes. Guang Guang stood there, completely changed.

"You are demons, you forced me, did you force me out, forced me out to die?" Dean, who was not like Dean, said, then he turned and shouted at the two whores: "You two Slut, you have taken my money and betrayed me. You will die, go to hell!" After saying that, he looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.

At this time, the prosecution lawyer stepped forward with a triumphant smile on his face. He said, "Dean, you finally appeared. If it weren't for this, I don't know how long you will have to hide? Your poor wife may Even to God, she would not believe that her favorite husband paid for her to kill her. She would not believe that her husband was a perverted transvestite, a prostitute and a murderer at the same time."

"Yes, so what?" Dean's face was full of provocation, and the fierce light in the corner of his eyes made people shiver. "You should say, poor Dean, because he doesn't even know I exist. Oh, look at him, he loves that old Clark woman so much, he wants to lift her up in the sky. Damn Clark, she's old and ugly, She's still flirting in front of Dean all day, don't you think she deserves to die? Even expensive clothes can't hide her oldness, I think I'll be more charming in those clothes."

After finishing speaking, Dean picked up the erotic underwear that someone deliberately threw in front of him just now, and put it on slowly, with a strange enthusiasm burning in his eyes, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and pointing his orchid finger, he straightened his clothes little by little. With the bra on his body, he rubbed up his coat to try to fill the cup. The whole person looked ridiculous and chilling.

"Yes, I did find someone to kill Clark," he continued as if he suddenly remembered something, "I found that bitch named Larry, we just met not long ago, yes, I did wear Her panties made love to her. But I paid for it. Ten dollars! These cheap whores! And she stole the heroin from my bag... But it's okay, I don't smoke that stuff, I just Take it with you to seduce them.

"But Larry is a stinky bitch. She didn't help me kill Clark. I had to ask her to find someone else for me. Jemel is not bad, she is brave enough. Why wouldn't she do it for drugs? So I took her ahead of time. Step on it, and tell her the combination to the garage. I know Clark has to go back home at ten o'clock every morning, because she doesn't trust the company safe, which is a funny habit... Yes, she wants Take home the cash and checks from the day before, and that's Jemel's chance.

"I prepared the gun for Jemel ahead of time, and it was on the back of the gas can on the left side of the garage, wrapped in newspaper. Jemel went to my house at 09:30 that morning and hid in the garage when Clark walked in. At the time, she picked up the gun and aimed two shots at Clark... Haha, poor Clark, unfortunately I didn't see that appearance, I didn't see what Clark looked like lying in a pool of blood...

"We have no neighbors, no one will hear what is going on in the garage, and at the corner of the street, I have the evacuation vehicle ready for Jemel, this little bitch, must be scared to drive away in a car and run away. Ha ha ha... Then I came home normally at noon, and I deliberately raised my voice and called Clark's name. Of course no one would promise me, because Clark was dead. I think I can't be too proud, because Dean will definitely be sad, although I Not worth it. But I'll have to hide for a while and let Dean deal with the situation."

Listening to Dean's almost crazy explanation, people looked at each other in blank dismay, many of them couldn't understand what happened, could it be that Dean was possessed by an evil spirit?
In fact, this is not a weird event, but Dean himself is a patient with dual personality syndrome.In his body, there are two different personalities hidden, let's call them Dean No. [-] and Dean No. [-].Dean No. [-] is the "good man", a gentle husband, and a generous and gentle father.He really loves his wife and family deeply, buying a farm, building a luxury villa, these are indeed things he is willing to do in his heart, Dean No. [-] lives happily, and does not know that there is a Dean in his body En No. [-] exists.

But Dean Two was a very different person.He's a transvestite, a psychopath, who lurks in Dean's body and usually explodes a few days a month.At this time, he would come to the east under the pretext of a business trip, disguise himself, hang out in those feasting places on the boulevard, spend money on prostitution, dress strangely, and satisfy his own hobbies.

He was well aware of Dean One's existence, but never intended to subvert Dean One to truly be himself.He would rather hide, and show up from time to time to release his needs.He loves Dean One deeply, and is very jealous of Dean One's love for his wife Clark.When Dean No. [-] gave Clark a luxury villa as a gift, Dean No. [-]'s jealousy was completely ignited, and he decided to kill Clark at all costs to relieve his hatred.

He has already explained the whole process of planning the murder.But what made him strange was how did the police discover this other personality hiding behind Dean No. [-]?

It turned out that after getting the testimony of the two prostitutes, the police were also puzzled, so they consulted a psychologist.According to the performance of Dean No. [-] and a series of testimonies, psychological experts deduce that Dean may have a dual personality, and perhaps the personality he is showing now does not know the truth.Therefore, the experts designed a "sitta play" for the police, forcing out Dean No. [-] in an atmosphere resembling the red light district of the boulevard.

The brain-burning logic of a genius or a madman
The incident of Dean murdering his wife sounds more like a story, but in fact, people like Dean with dual or even multiple personalities are not fictional in literary works, but a real existence.The psychological explanation for this mental illness is: "A person has more than two, relatively unique and separate sub-personality, which is called multiple personality." It has many names, but we usually call it "" Hysterical Dissociative Identity Disorder".

In Cameron West's autobiographical novel "24 Personalities", he tells the story of a person with 24 personalities in a very gloomy but skilful tone, which is actually the author himself.

In some multiple personalities, the dominant personality is very aware of the existence of the other personalities, but the other personalities do not necessarily know the existence of the other or other personalities.That is to say, usually those subordinate personalities think that they are independent, thinking that "I am myself, not others".

But in Dean, it's just the opposite. The dominant character Dean No. [-] doesn't know that he is actually a dual personality, but the subordinate character Dean No. [-] is playing tricks on the side.In this way, if he has not been exposed and has been hiding, maybe Dean will not be convicted.

There has been some debate in the psychology community about Dean's approach.Should the ignorant Dean No. [-] take responsibility and be sentenced to prison, or should he call out Dean No. [-] through some psychological hints and guidance, and let him become the dominant personality to accept punishment?
Although Dean did commit a crime, from a psychological point of view, Dean One is innocent, and even Dean himself is a victim of mental illness.Judiciary has its own judgment on how to deal with it. We only need to scientifically understand multiple personalities here.
