While Xiao Furen was battling wits with the Wang mother-daughter duo over the evening gala, the police station received another report. A new homicide had been discovered in West City. Based on the crime scene investigation and the gruesome state of the victim, the killer was likely the same person from the previous murder.
With another victim, the atmosphere at the police station grew even more tense. Captain Fu and his team had worked overtime all night again, but word was there were still no leads.
"We interviewed the neighbors. Most of them said they didn't hear any commotion yesterday evening. It wasn't until they heard a child's scream that they felt something was wrong. When they went to check, the victim was already lying on the ground, surrounded by blood. That's when someone called the police," a police officer reported.
