Yang Luo was anxious, "You still don't believe me? Let me tell you, bud, I just got back from South Korea the day before yesterday. I stayed there for three months and picked up a Korean girl." The two were whispering there, while Wang Tong stood by the window watching these two sleazy guys, fuming with anger.
Liu Shijie sensed an opportunity and walked over attentively, saying, "Tongtong! Don't bother getting mad at a scumbag like him. It's not worth it."
Wang Tong glanced at him, "If you've got the time, go check on the clues instead."
Liu Shijie perked up—this was the first time Wang Tong had spoken to him so "kind and pleasant." "This case doesn't need investigating. It's obvious the killer committed murder for money. The blood handprint on the wall must be the killer's. Just collect the fingerprints and we'll catch him."
His voice was loud and smug. Yang Luo overheard and laughed, saying, "A dimwit is a dimwit. Damn! Put clothes on a pig and it's still a pig, never turning into a human."
"What did you say?" Liu Shijie pointed at Yang Luo. "If you've got the guts, try solving the case and bossing around here."
Yang Luo turned around, walked up to Wang Tong, and said, "I can solve the case in under ten minutes, but you have to be my girlfriend."
Liu Shijie burst into wild laughter: "A petty thug is a petty thug. I've already analyzed the case. You're not going to just repeat me, are you?"
Yang Luo ignored him. "What do you say?" Wang Tong's curiosity was piqued. She wondered if this guy was telling the truth—could he really solve the case?
Yang Luo's words sparked everyone's interest. They all wanted to see if this newcomer could really crack the case so quickly, or if he was just bragging.
"Brother! Don't talk big." Tan Long walked over and said.
Wang Tong thought for a moment and asked, "And if you lose?"
Yang Luo chuckled, "I'll take the loss and be your boyfriend."
Tan Long muttered, "Isn't that the same thing?"
Wang Tong pouted her lips, "No way! How about this, if you can't crack the case within ten minutes, you'll be punished by cleaning the office every day."
"Snap!" Yang Luo snapped his fingers. "Deal." As soon as Yang Luo finished speaking, everyone's spirits lifted. Looking at Yang Luo's confident face, they muttered, "This kid isn't really going to crack the case in ten minutes, is he?"
Yang Luo walked over to the body and touched the victim's blood with his hand. "Judging by the color of the dried blood, the time of death should be between 3 and 4 o'clock this morning. The victim knew the murderer, and they were very familiar with each other. If my guess is correct, the murderer should be a woman."
Liu Shijie sneered, "The bloody handprint on the wall is obviously a man's, yet you say it's a woman. How ridiculous. I wonder which police academy you graduated from." The others nodded slightly upon hearing Liu Shijie's words.
Yang Luo looked at Liu Shijie: "I said you were a pig, and I wasn't wrong. Put your hand on the wall and see what impression it leaves."
Liu Shijie didn't follow the instructions, but Tan Long curiously pressed his hand against the wall. At first, nothing was noticeable, but after a moment, he let out an "Eh!" "I see, that bloody handprint is fake. It was deliberately left by the murderer."
Wei Yong's eyes lit up: "Tell us more!"
Tan Long said, "Captain, take a look. When you press your palm against the wall, your thumb can only leave a half-print. It's impossible to leave a full fingerprint."
The crowd finally perked up with interest. Wang Tong asked, "How do you know the murderer is a woman? And that the victim and the killer were very familiar with each other?"
