But does one really need to guess how a murderer got in? You can tell at a glance! So that broken lock was meant to mislead the investigators!

It's time to take action!

Luo Fei took Jiang Qing's previous information and asked the supervisor and Xu Keyan to also send Guo Wei's information to his phone.

He wanted to compare the two sets of information to find commonalities.

As the saying goes, "A single thread can't make cloth; two threads woven together will hold." Simply put, one person isn't enough, but together, there's a chance.

These streamers are different from each other, with few common traits.

So, as long as he probes carefully, he will definitely find clues.

Whether it's fans giving rewards or sponsors sending gifts, as long as he can catch a trail, the other party won't escape.

That night, Luo Fei arrived at the crime scene, where Liao Xingyu had already arrived ahead of him.

"Luo Fei, look, it's the same breaking-in process as before, hammer first then saw, almost identical electronic lock. Sigh..."

Liao Xingyu helplessly pointed at the mess at the doorway.

As for how it appeared inside, he didn't want to take a second look.

"How's the crime scene processing going?"

"When the ambulance got here, the person couldn't be saved. Declared dead before even reaching the vehicle. Blood splattered all over the interior, you wouldn't believe how gory the scene was, hissing..."

Amid Liao Xingyu's despairing look, he suddenly noticed Luo Fei's stern gaze.

"Were you in front of the computer the whole time?"

"Yes."

Luo Fei nodded seriously.

"Didn't miss a single frame; I watched the whole time."

Upon hearing this, Liao Xingyu wiped his face with his hand, feeling quite unsettled.

"However, there's one point we've overlooked previously, Old Liao."

"That mysterious man didn't enter the house by breaking the door first but left it smashing the lock upon leaving, forcibly creating a scene of destruction. The purpose was to mislead us."

"What?"

Liao Xingyu was a bit baffled.

"Could he have a key? But isn't the homeowner the only one with a key? Could it be an inside job?"

"It's still unclear how he got in, but one thing's certain, this guy didn't exert much effort getting in, which is why he added the theatrics when leaving to clear himself of suspicion."

Suddenly, Zhou Fan emerged from inside the house.

"Old Liao, Luo Fei, there's another discovery!"

"What?"

"We found something on the victim's desk; it's her purse, and it's nearly empty, except for... uh, uh..."

Seeing Zhou Fan's awkward demeanor, Luo Fei and Liao Xingyu sensed a bit of embarrassment.

Without another word, the two walked in, finding the purse placed next to the computer on a relatively clean spot on a dirty table, suggesting it had been sitting there for some time.

Liao Xingyu picked up the purse and looked inside, finding a condom quietly lying there.

The atmosphere froze in an instant.

"Hiss, what kind of clue is that? Zhou Fan, joke around less, we're in a serious time!"

"I'm not joking!"

Zhou Fan pointed awkwardly inside, softly reminding them.

"Look closely!"

The two examined it again, noticing the condom had already been torn open, clearly unused, with its contents dried up.

This indicated it had been used partially, but the action stopped abruptly.

Their gazes turned intriguing as they realized an unusual message was hidden within.

The long-abandoned woman's purse suddenly featuring an opened condom proved that some time ago, an unsuccessful action occurred here.

"Luo Fei, what do you think about this?"

"What else can I think? Look at it with your eyes."

Luo Fei slapped the information he held against Zhou Fan's chest.

"Let's sort out all the top fans and the highest-gifting followers, then compare them. I suspect the killer is among them."

Seeing them get busy, Zhou Fan grew curious.

"Luo Fei, Old Liao mentioned it could be an inside job, why not investigate her acquaintances first?"

"That's not how it works; we should start from the facts."

With that, Luo Fei picked up two lists and waved them in front of Zhou Fan.

"Look, see all these reward records from various people? They rotate daily, with the top fan changing often; they achieve with their charm, but there are repeating names among them."

"What's next? How can you be sure there are repeat names?"

Zhou Fan remained confused, feeling Luo Fei was making subjective assumptions out of thin air.

How could the investigation range be narrowed just by making a statement?

Luo Fei offered his explanation.

"We went through the details. Jiang Qing came to Jiangzhou City from elsewhere to stream and gain popularity for monetization. It perfectly fits the daily life of an individual striving alone."

"However, Guo Wei's home is in Jiangzhou City. She lives separately, also living alone, but unlike Jiang Qing, what links or commonalities exist between them?"

"I suspect they both interacted with the same tipping fan, which spawned hatred in that mysterious person leading to this lethal visit; I don't believe it to be a so-called familiar culprit."
