It was already one in the morning when Shen Xin returned to the sub-bureau.
The main team from the mountain had also just gotten back.
It was a cold case. The one upside was that it wasn't like a fresh case where they'd be rushing to find clues and arrest a suspect.
Zhou Zhongyi was back too.
According to him, there was nothing new to report from Hutang. After all that fuss, Yang Huixia hadn't left in the end; she'd chosen to stay home.
By the time he got back, she was already fast asleep.
Shen Xin clocked out.
On the way home, Shen Xin carefully went over the details of the case in his mind again.
As for the bodies, the preliminary examination results were in.
On the male victim, they found four puncture holes in his T-shirt.
One was near his heart.
They speculated the wounds were from a sharp instrument with a 2.5-centimeter-wide blade.
The female victim's clothing was intact, with no punctures found, leading them to speculate she had been strangled to death.
