The living room.
On the coffee table sat a photo frame. Inside was a picture of a young Bai Han and his wife in front of a white watchtower, both of them beaming.
"Boss, this family must have been very particular," Song Sisi said softly, her finger gliding over the spotless piano lid, leaving a clear streak on the dust-free surface.
Li Xu nodded, his gaze drawn to an old-fashioned video camera in the corner.
Next to the camera were dozens of videotapes, stacked neatly. Each one had a label with a date and a brief description of its contents.
The most recent tape was dated exactly one year ago, from before Bai Han had fallen ill.
Nearby was a locked door.
Li Xu tried the key. After opening the door, he found a pile of paper rabbits on the floor.
The paper rabbits were folded from paper of all different colors.
Most of them were white.
They were scattered across the floor, making the room feel like something out of a fairy tale.
