“What did you find?” Lin Yi asked in surprise.

“Let’s go watch the surveillance video.”

The two of them put down their chopsticks and went to the coffee table to turn on the surveillance video.

“Do you see anything different?”

Qiao Xin looked at Lin Yi seriously. “Brother Lin, don’t you think this video is a bit too clear?”

“Clear?”

“This place, I’ve been there before with other colleagues, and I still remember what it looks like. The crime scene is in a guesthouse area meant for overnight stays by out-of-town tourists, but the environment is pretty average. The owner isn’t very pleasant either. You pulled the surveillance footage; you should remember.”

“Yes.”

Qiao Xin’s description matched almost exactly with the actual situation.

Yesterday, while investigating and gathering evidence with Gu Yiran, they also learned more about the area.

Indeed, it consisted of about a dozen connected guesthouses. Whether it was the male or female owner, each seemed to have the aura of a con-artist.

This was also a special feature of the scenic area because they made a living by scamming tourists.

“Look at the surveillance footage. It’s so clear. I don’t think such a small shop usually uses such a good camera.”

Qiao Xin changed her posture and continued,

“Look at the angle of these videos. They almost captured the victim’s every move when he fell off the cliff, especially the scene of him falling off the cliff. The victim was in the middle of the surveillance footage as if it was deliberately filming him.”

Qiao Xin’s words enlightened Lin Yi.

Hearing what she said while looking at the surveillance footage, he noticed that there was indeed something wrong.

It was a little too clear, as if these cameras were prepared just for the deceased.

The two of them looked at each other and got an answer in their hearts.

“Brother Lin, this might be a carefully planned murder. These cameras are very likely to have been deliberately arranged by the murderer to let you find clues to prove that he fell off the cliff himself so that you think this had nothing to do with anyone else.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, your analysis is really good,” Lin Yi said, “I didn’t notice it before.”

While praising Qiao Xin, Lin Yi cursed the system in his heart.

“Is the master-level criminal investigation technique you gave me pirated? It’s not as impressive as an old Conan fan’s.”

The system probably knew that it was in the wrong and did not dare to retort.

“Aiya, it’s alright, it’s alright. It’s so-so,” Qiao Xin said.

“However, the case is much clearer. It’s very likely that he discovered something. Or perhaps he was about to discover something. Then, the murderer used this method to kill him.”

Qiao Xin’s analysis was very rational. There were no leaps in logic.

“Let’s eat first. I’ll go back later and tell the police about this.”

“Okay.” Qiao Xin nodded and said,

“But if there are any new developments, remember to let me know as soon as possible.”

“Okay.”

After discussing the case with Qiao Xin, Lin Yi returned to the dining table. After dinner, the three of them left.

The two of them went shopping, and Lin Yi returned to the branch office.

When he arrived at the office, he realized that Li Xianghui was alone.

“Why is it just the two of us? Where are the others?”

Li Xianghui yawned. “They went back too late yesterday. No one woke up early in the morning. I just called to wake them up and they’ll be here soon.”

While they were talking, the office door was pushed open and Gu Yiran walked in.

“Inspector Li.”

Gu Yiran greeted him but ignored Lin Yi.

“You probably didn’t sleep well yesterday,” Li Xianghui said.

“I didn’t go to bed until after midnight. If you hadn’t called, I probably would have been up by the afternoon.”

“Young people should really be mindful of moderation; being too unrestrained isn’t good for your health.”

“Who are you calling unrestrained? I just go to sleep when I get home.”

“But it’s not certain who you’re sleeping with, and even though you’re a woman, you should still be cautious about moderation.”

“You!”

“Alright, alright. Can the two of you be more peaceful? It hasn’t even been a few days and you’re arguing again.”

“It’s mainly because some people can’t afford to play. They lost a bet with me and flew into a rage out of humiliation.”

Thinking about what happened last night, Li Xianghui couldn’t help but laugh. Lin Yi’s tricks were too advanced.

He actually used Type-R to fool Gu Yiran.

“Don’t malign me. I, Gu Yiran, am not someone who can’t afford to pay up. I’ve already fulfilled my promise.”

“If I knew it would be like before, 1 wouldn’t have played with you.”

Gu Yiran glared at Lin Yi, “If you dare to leak this, 1’11 teach you a lesson.”

“Don’t worry, even if it leaks, others won’t be interested. Don’t overestimate yourself.”

“Stop, stop, stop. If the two of you have the energy, focus on the case. Don’t argue here.”

“I can’t be bothered with him.”

Gu Yiran shook her head and leaned against the back of the chair with her eyes closed, clearly ignoring Lin Yi.

Before long, Zhang Hui walked in from outside, appearing to be in fairly good spirits.

“Little Gao went to Song Deyuan’s company. Now that everyone is here, let’s get down to business.”

Li Xianghui took out a report.

“This is the autopsy report. It proves that Song Deyuan did show signs of using drugs before he died, and the dosage was quite high,” Li Xianghui said.

“The forensics team also gave a preliminary judgment. The victim fell off a cliff and died because he overdosed on contraband and hallucinated.”

Hearing this, no one was surprised, because it was similar to their guesses.

“Let’s wait for Little Gao’s news and see what he can find out. Then, we’ll interrogate the suspect in custody.”

“Brother Li, I also found some clues here.”

Lin Yi’s words attracted everyone’s attention.

“What did you find? Tell me about it.”

Lin Yi connected the surveillance video to the computer and played it again for everyone, but Li Xianghui and the others didn’t notice anything different. “What’s wrong with the video?”

“Don’t you think that these videos are especially clear?” Lin Yi said.

“On the way here, I got someone to look into it. A surveillance camera of this quality would cost at least 1,000 yuan. However, with the conditions of the surrounding guesthouses, they would never install such an expensive camera.”

Lin Yi’s words alerted the others.

As the saying goes, the butt decides the head.

The purpose of the work was to earn money, not to give evidence to the police.

From a profit point of view, installing a cheap camera would do the job as long as one could see the people captured clearly. It would not do any good to install a higher-level camera.

And most importantly, it didn’t matter if one of them did it at all.

However, the complete image in the surveillance footage is pieced together from four sets of cameras.

The clarity of all four camera sets was almost identical, suggesting they were likely from the same brand!

This detail was quite suspicious!
