Is it possible they have another secret hideout?
Leslie frowned at the filthy, rank room, a table littered with festering fast-food containers.
He approached Dean. "Something doesn’t seem right, Dean. Looking at the traces around, it seems the Wayne brothers haven’t been back here for three or four days."
Dean nodded. "To be precise, they haven’t returned for over six days. But I need to take a closer look."
Most traces of life had been preserved inside the house.
Dean began to wander around the room.
It was deeply imbued with the signs of a man’s habitation: dirty clothes strewn about, stiff, smelly socks, yellowing toilet paper in a corner, and several lottery-related newspapers.
Near the VCD player, Dean also found a disc burner.
He turned on the VCD player and looked.
It was videos of the two bastards ’molesting’ those female homeowners!
So they weren’t oblivious to the presence of the female homeowners, but rather premeditated their actions, and had even brought a video camera with them.
When the Wayne brothers ’molested’ those female homeowners, they deliberately injured them. This ensured the victims couldn’t hide what had happened, even if they wanted to. The brothers then recorded these acts on CD.
Looking at it now, it seems they did this to derive a perverse pleasure from destroying the happiness of others’ families.
This kind of perversion has a significant hallmark.
It’s that ordinary sexual activities can hardly elicit a response from them, leading to their psychological ’impotence’. Therefore, they need to increasingly engage in deviant behavior to sustain their twisted stimulation.
Many NTR, swapping... and other peculiar behaviors actually originated this way; they are psychological disorders that are difficult to cure.
Aside from last night’s female victim, there were videos of four other women who had suffered ’molestation’.
Three were completed and packed in bags.
One was finished but not yet taken out, still inside the burner. It seemed the Wayne brothers were preparing to leave and wanted the machine to run by itself. That way, when they returned, the burning would be complete.
But for some reason, after they left, they never came back.
Why haven’t the Wayne brothers returned for over six days in a row?
Based on the feedback from the objects, it seemed that the Wayne brothers had encountered some mishap six or seven days ago, which prevented them from returning to their nest.
But last night, they appeared unharmed in the female victim’s home and ’molested’ her for over three hours, which meant they went in at night and didn’t leave until the early morning.
Dean rubbed his forehead. What had seemed like a straightforward case was suddenly spinning out of his control.
Six or seven days ago...
Dean closed his eyes. Information from over twenty cases he had seen at the police station—approximate times, routes, and locations of the incidents—floated through his mind.
This was a ’memory materialization’ ability that had slowly developed after he achieved complete control of his 13 Spirit points.
It was brain-draining, which was why Dean seldom indulged in this state.
Lines from various routes, all centered around this cabin, spread throughout his mind like a spider’s web. They arrayed themselves in different sequences, each scene reemerging as clearly as a CAD animation on a computer.
Once somewhat blurred crime routes and patterns were now eerily tiered in Dean’s head.
He opened his eyes, smiling.
He probably knew where the Shane brothers were.
The only lingering question was, what exactly had happened to them?
