Due to various factors, Han Fei strongly suspected this was a murder case, not a suicide.
So, he simply started investigating it as a murder.
He had the medical examiner take the body back for an autopsy to determine if the victim had indeed died of poisoning, and if so, what kind of poison.
At the same time, he had the forensics team collect all the biological traces in the room to see if they could help solve the case.
A locked room murder case... Han Fei had never encountered such a case in his decades of service!
Although such a strange case might be difficult to investigate,
If it could be successfully solved, it would undoubtedly be very rewarding and face-saving!
So in a way, Han Fei was quite excited.
As for Chen Ke and the others, needless to say, they were even more excited than Han Fei.
The only person who wasn't excited was Xu Mo.
Because among the case-solving experiences rewarded by the system, there were several locked room murder cases. These cases were directly in Xu Mo's memory, allowing him to vividly recall the process of solving them.
So when encountering a locked room murder case, there was naturally nothing to be excited about.
At this moment, Xu Mo briefly recalled those few locked room murder cases in his mind.
After quickly going through those cases in his head,
Xu Mo roughly understood the pattern of locked room murders.
Just one dead body in the room, all doors and windows locked from the inside, the killer vanished into thin air...
It sounded very mysterious.
But if you think about it a bit, it can be figured out.
Xu Mo already had several ideas for solving the case in his mind.
...
This villa was located right behind the one Xu Mo was staying in.
The commotion here could be heard from the front.
Earlier, when the medical examiner and forensics team came in police cars, it attracted the attention of all the fans who were blocking Xu Mo's door asking for his autograph.
"What's going on? Why are the police here?"
"Someone died. You came too late to see it, but I saw them carrying a body out of the house earlier!"
"Someone died?? When did it happen? How did they die?"
"Who knows? They're dead anyway, already covered with a white sheet."
"Wow, this is the first time I've ever seen a dead body. I'm going to take a picture and post it on social media!"
"What's wrong with you?"
"Bro, you're crazy. You want to take pictures of a corpse? Aren't you afraid of bad luck?"
"..."
"Don't gather around the police line. Everyone, please disperse. Stop trying to look inside, there's nothing to see!" Seeing the crowd gathering to watch, a police officer came forward to disperse the onlookers.
For murder cases, to avoid public panic and prevent copycat crimes, the police generally try to keep things under wraps as much as possible during the investigation.
Only after solving the case would they make an announcement, releasing detailed information about the case along with news that the culprit had been brought to justice. Once the killer was caught, the case wouldn't cause panic.
At this moment, Xu Mo stood inside the house, examining the gathered crowd outside one by one.
Because he had just thought of a scenario in locked room murder cases... After killing, the murderer might hide in the locked room, waiting until the body was discovered.
After the body was discovered, the killer would take advantage of the chaos to leave the locked room, then stand among the onlookers to observe, and later find an opportunity to leave the scene.
For a while earlier, none of them were in the bedroom with the body.
Xu Mo was recalling those locked room murder cases in his mind.
Han Fei was instructing the medical examiner and forensics team.
Chen Ke, Li Chen, and Wang Dachuan were engrossed in researching locked room murder cases online.
In this situation, the killer could quietly leave the locked room without anyone noticing. As long as they were careful enough, they could successfully blend into the crowd of onlookers outside.
Xu Mo thought this scenario was possible, so he needed to confirm if the killer had mixed in with the crowd outside to watch.
After looking around, Xu Mo really did spot a suspicious-looking young boy. He was pale and thin, with the look of a Young Boy that rich older women tend to like.
Xu Mo was well-versed in psychology.
He was extremely sensitive to people's eyes and expressions.
So he could tell at a glance that this young boy's gaze was very unusual.
He kept glancing at the body covered with a white sheet in the car for no reason, and occasionally looked at his phone, probably sending messages.
He seemed to know the owner of the house, who was the deceased.
Xu Mo walked directly towards the strange-acting young boy.
Seeing Xu Mo approach, the young boy appeared somewhat flustered.
"Do you know the owner of this villa?" Xu Mo asked directly.
"Y-yes... I do," the young boy nodded, stammering.
"You do?" Xu Mo continued, "What's your relationship with her? Is she your mother or...?"
Hearing this, the young boy looked somewhat embarrassed. After weighing for two seconds, he still answered, "...I'm not her son. We're in a romantic relationship."
Xu Mo: "???"
A romantic relationship!?
The boy in front of him looked to be only nineteen or twenty years old.
A woman in her fifties could easily be his mother.
Maybe even older than his mother!
Who would have thought... he was actually the... boyfriend of the deceased woman in her fifties?
After being stunned for a few seconds, Xu Mo chuckled awkwardly, "That's nice... An older woman paves the way! Saves you decades of hard work."
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered the sex toys he had seen in the wardrobe inside the house.
Then, he instinctively glanced at the Young Boy's legs.
"Ahem..." the Young Boy coughed awkwardly a couple of times, "My girlfriend... I mean, that woman, has something happened to her? Is she the one covered by the white sheet?"
"Yes, it's her. She's dead," Xu Mo nodded.
Then he continued,
"Since you know the deceased, could you come with us? We'd like to ask you about your girlfriend's situation to help with the investigation."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
