Lin Chen nodded. "Alright, I understand what you want me to divine. Right now, both sides are accusing each other, so it's impossible to pinpoint the suspect. Let me see your daughter's photo first."
The comments flooded in at this moment:
"Damn, there are real risks to wearing the green hat."
"How terrifying. It's just an affair, it shouldn't lead to murder."
"Men are all scumbags, yet they make women pay the price!" A certain feminist commented.
"This certain Taoist, he's very flirtatious," Wildcat remarked.
"The husband is more likely to be the killer," Black Bat analyzed.
Tony also said, "It's possible those two are a couple. The wife was in their way, so they teamed up to kill her."
Big Daddy nodded. "Men don't necessarily have to like women. If they're accusing each other and can't pinpoint the suspect, they might get off on reasonable doubt. They could be released without charge."
Mindy was furious. "Big Daddy, it can actually happen like that?!"
Emma then took out a photo, a picture of the three of them together. You could tell they used to have a good relationship.
"Taoist, the three of them have been friends since they were kids. They have a good relationship with each other. My son-in-law is excellent, and my daughter likes him too. But this Colin is far worse; he often needs my son-in-law's financial help."
Lin Chen nodded as he activated his Water Mirror Divination. It didn't take long for him to understand the situation.
"Emma, I know who the killer is."
"Who is it, Taoist?" Emma asked urgently.
"Your son-in-law, and he isn't as good as he seems."
"It's him, of all people?" Emma's eyes widened, her expression filled with self-reproach. "I even defended him earlier, saying he had a good relationship with his daughter, that he couldn't possibly have killed her!"
Lin Chen said in a low voice, "Actually, he had a habit of domestic violence for a long time. Your daughter was afraid of worrying you, so she didn't say anything.
That time, her husband beat her really badly. She ran out and found Colin. They drank and it happened in a haze, just the once."
Emma cried, "Waaaah, I didn't care enough about her. I should have realized it sooner…"
Lin Chen continued, "Yesterday, her husband beat her again. She couldn't hold back and told him about that, and yelled at him. As a result, it completely triggered her husband, and she was beaten with a baseball bat…"
Emma was already sobbing uncontrollably.
The online viewers were also quite agitated, and they sent a flurry of comments.
"Even though the affair was wrong, she shouldn't have been beaten to death."
"Long-term abuse is the root of the problem."
"The criminals must be severely punished!"
"This kind of scum should be strung up and whipped every day!" Wildcat angrily flicked the whip at her waist.
"The current difficulty is how to break up their conspiracy," Black Bat analyzed very rationally.
After Batman finished commenting, Alfred the butler said from the side, "Master Bruce, go eat something, and then go out for a walk. Don't get lost in watching the live stream. Isn't it better to find a beautiful woman and fall in love?"
"Alfred, leave me alone. I need to analyze the case."
Alfred... "I really want to meet this Daoist Lin. What about the Wayne Family legacy!"
Tony Stark stroked his chin. "Could we try separating them for questioning, and pretend one of them confessed?"
Lorna chimed in, "Colin is the subordinate in this situation. He's the key. Since he didn't commit the murder, there's a chance he'll tell the truth."
Harley leaned against Lin Chen. "Maybe Colin's wife could persuade him. He's capable of making a false confession, so he might be easily swayed."
Lin Chen nodded. "Everyone's analysis is good. Emma, show me some photos of the suspects."
Emma displayed the photos one by one on her phone for Lin Chen to look at.
Lin Chen thoughtfully nodded, a plan forming in his mind.
Mindy suddenly exclaimed, "I know!"
She ran over and shook Lin Chen excitedly, a look of triumph on her face. "I know how to tell who the killer is!"
Lin Chen touched her purple hair. "So, tell me, how do we tell the difference?"
Mindy raised her hands and wiggled them. "It's easy! I'm left-handed, and Big Daddy isn't!"
Lin Chen chuckled. "So, you're not really his?"
"Pfft! It's just that we use different angles."
"In those photos earlier, I saw that her husband was left-handed, but Colin isn't. So, the angle of the baseball bat swing would definitely be different. That's how we can analyze that her husband did it!"
Lin Chen nodded. "That's right, you're right."
"Yay!" Mindy raised her hands, looked around, and then landed her gaze on Stark's face. "I'm smarter than all of you, especially you, Mr. Stinky Face!"
Tony was completely shut down by this little girl!
Lin Chen added, "Emma, the two people have different heights and arm spans, which will cause differences. I think we can use this as a breakthrough point. Colin should confess quickly."
"Also, your daughter's husband is actually having an affair with Colin's wife. This should prevent him from willingly providing false testimony."
Everyone was shocked, and a few words surfaced in their minds: What a tangled mess!
Lin Chen mentioned this as well, hoping that Colin would realize the true colors of his good friend as soon as possible, allowing the detective to solve the case quickly.
Emma said many thanks and went to discuss with the detective.
In the end, Colin confessed everything. Emma's daughter was beaten by her husband and came to Colin for comfort. As a result, Colin's wife discovered their relationship and kicked Colin out of the house.
Colin was angry and went to Emma's daughter to confront her, only to find that his good friend had killed his wife.
He was originally going to call the police, but his friend had always helped him before and treated him very well. Plus, he felt guilty for cuckolding his friend, so the two of them discussed this method to confuse the detective's investigation and attempt to escape punishment.
