For a full hour, Tina Shen meticulously examined the crime scene.
On the sixth floor, in the attic, she left no corner unchecked. But there was nothing to find...
Impossible!
Tina Shen furrowed her brows, eventually standing in front of the window in the main hall.
With her experience from her past life, she knew that if the murderer had left any trace, it was rare for her not to notice it. Yet, at this scene, she had found no evidence of a "fifth person" entering the house.
That's right, if there was another murderer besides the victim's family and the suspect, there had to have been a fifth person who entered!
Was it even possible?
If not, it was terrifying… Tina Shen's lips twitched.
But…
Just because ordinary people couldn't find the traces, didn't mean she was out of options.
Falcon's Eye… Activate!
In an instant, Tina Shen's eyes changed. Her pupils rapidly contracted and expanded, and a sharp gleam flickered in her gaze.
Her vision shifted, and the world seemed to change.
It was as though she had opened the door to a new world. She could now see particles of dust on the ground, individual strands of hair left on the sofa, and other things that were invisible to the naked eye…
With her Falcon's Eye activated, Tina Shen re-examined the scene.
Finally, she stood again in front of the sliding door of the attic window, her eyes locked on the door handle.
She focused on a small spot that blended perfectly with the white of the door, but had a slight difference in color…
Tina Shen crouched down and leaned in close to inspect the spot.
A smile slowly crept onto her face.
It was as though lightning had struck her mind, clearing away all the fog.
So that's how you entered the victim's home!
Less than half an hour later, the entire special task force arrived, their expressions serious and focused as they looked at Tina Shen.
"Got the things?" Tina Shen asked Eric Niu.
"Yeah."
Eric Niu nodded and handed her a tool kit.
Opening the kit, it contained disposable rubber gloves and a set of forensic tools.
After putting on the gloves, Tina Shen took out a pair of small tweezers and returned to the sliding door.
She carefully extended her hand with the tweezers toward the peculiar "spot" on the door.
The tweezer tips gently latched onto the spot, and Tina Shen slowly pulled it out.
A small, one-inch-long, white plastic strip emerged...
Everyone: ???
Is this the clue you were talking about?
Is this why you called us here?
They stared at Tina Shen with confused and slightly skeptical expressions. Did she just waste their time?
Tina Shen discarded the tweezers and plastic strip to the side, crouching down to closely examine the small hole in the door.
In her past life, Tina Shen had worked on a bizarre burglary case.
Normally, such a small case wouldn't require her involvement.
But this case turned into a big one.
A thief had committed over thirty burglaries within two months—frightening, right? That's one every two days on average.
Because the case involved a significant amount of money, many investigating units had failed to crack it, and it was eventually handed over to her.
Why couldn't they solve it?
Wasn't it just a burglary?
The issue was, until the thief was caught, no one could figure out how he was getting into the victims' homes. Fascinating, right?
Because many of the victims' homes, even when unoccupied, had their doors and windows tightly locked.
There were no signs of forced entry or lock-picking, yet things were missing!
So how did the thief get in?
With a steel wire and a hand drill!
The thief would first use a hand drill to make a small hole in the sliding door.
Then, with a steel wire, he could easily open the door and break into the house.
The most cunning part of this thief was that after the burglary, he'd clean up all the traces of his entry, restore the door and windows to their original position, and even block the small hole he'd drilled with a plastic strip matching the door's color, leaving no evidence behind.
It took Tina Shen half a month to crack the case of these serial burglaries, and when she finally apprehended the thief, she couldn't help but give him a thumbs up and say, "Impressive!"
Tina Shen hadn't expected that, after crossing over, someone in this world would be using the same method to commit a crime.
She stood up and scanned the faces of the special task force members. They all looked puzzled.
Given their level of understanding, even if she explained it, they probably wouldn't get it.
So, let them remain confused!
Next, Tina Shen took a steel wire from the kit and demonstrated on the scene for the team.
When the team saw Tina Shen open the locked door with just the small hole and a steel wire, their faces were filled with shock.
It wasn't her lock-picking skills that shocked them, but the revelation that she was showing them how the real murderer had entered the victim's house without leaving a trace.
The balcony?
Realizing this, Eric Niu stepped out onto the balcony, standing beside Tina Shen, and looked up at the canopy above.
His brain went into overdrive, picturing the scenario.
The murderer must have climbed onto the roof of the building, then used the canopy to reach the victim's balcony. There, they drilled a hole and used the wire to open the door, committing the crime…
Impressive!
Eric Niu glanced at Tina Shen with a complex expression, as if silently asking, "Are you some kind of superhuman? How did you think of that?"
Tina Shen seemed to understand Eric Niu's unspoken thoughts and smiled.
What couldn't happen in this world?
To deal with someone as cunning as the murderer, you need someone equally sharp.
Of course, Tina Shen would never admit that her thinking was so meticulous.
This wasn't deep thinking—it was wisdom. Would you like to try understanding it?
