The police analyzed the bloodstains on the wire and found them to match the victim’s blood type, ultimately confirming the wire as the murder weapon.
During the search, they found the same thickness of wire in Scar Brother’s room, and also discovered leather gloves cut by the wire in the rooms of two "younger brothers" in the gang.
The trace comparisons were unmistakable.
The evidence linked together perfectly, and it was finally confirmed that the murder was carried out under Scar Brother’s guidance by two adult members of the gang.
During the interrogation, in the face of conclusive evidence, the police quickly broke through Scar Brother’s psychological defenses.
Although he had some cunning, the police had already seen through their murder methods. Scar Brother’s excuses appeared feeble and powerless, so he ultimately had no choice but to confess.
The victim was an accountant by profession, and Scar Brother had been eyeing him for several days.
These days, salaries were paid in cash, usually with the accountant first withdrawing the money from the bank and bringing it to the workplace on payday.
However, the victim worked overtime and was late that day, so he didn’t go to the bank to withdraw the money, something Scar Brother didn’t know.
They deliberately smashed the light bulbs.
So that the victim, upon hearing the roar of motorcycles, wouldn’t turn around and see, then avoid the wire under the light.
But they didn’t expect the victim to be very timid, only focusing on hurrying along with his head down, which made their task exceptionally smooth.
It was only after grabbing the bag that the younger brothers realized it was empty, containing only a man’s wallet.
Angry and embarrassed and worried they couldn’t explain themselves, they took the head back with them.
Scar Brother was furious when he found out they had carelessly thrown the wire into the trash bin, fearing they had left evidence behind.
He wanted someone to bring it back, but by then the police had already cordoned off the area and begun searching for the murder weapon.
In the end, the murder weapon wasn’t found, and Scar Brother was self-congratulatory for a while but didn’t dare send anyone back, lest they startle the grass and draw the police’s attention.
The head was encased in a concrete wall.
The police spent half a day extracting it and, after confirmation, returned it to the family for cremation, to be placed with the original ashes.
Because of the special circumstances, all was done overtime, and it just met Yan Sinian’s one-week deadline.
In the school, Yue Qingqing imperceptibly felt something slowly dissipating.
These several souls who received help could finally rest completely at ease and head to the Underworld for reincarnation.
Scar Brother’s team would also receive their deserved punishment.
Si Xi made a special trip to the hospital to bid farewell to Yan Sinian, this time she was very proper, first inquiring by phone and choosing a quiet time right after Yan Sinian finished checking on patients.
Her attitude was as respectful as it could be.
Upon seeing Yan Sinian, Si Xi bowed deeply.
"Thank you, senior, for allowing more people to escape from disaster."
According to Scar Brother’s confession, although they didn’t get the money this time, they found this method of killing quite good and even planned to continue using it.
When caught, there were several bundles of thin wire in Scar Brother’s room.
If not for Yan Sinian’s timely exposure of the man, who knows how many others might have suffered.
Yan Sinian closed the medical record book, "You don’t need to thank me, I did it casually."
This incident thoroughly convinced the originally proud Si Xi.
Although he was the same age as her, in terms of cultivation base, vision, and mentality, he far surpassed her.
It made Si Xi blush with shame when she thought of the praises she used to receive from her elders.
Si Xi took out a triangular folded talisman from the small bag she carried with her.
Yan Sinian glanced at it and guessed its use from the special yet regular fluctuation of Spiritual Energy on it.
Si Xi laughed hehe and said, "This is our department’s emblem, I know the senior does not need it, but this can be given to Qingqing. In the future, if she encounters someone from the department while she’s out, it might provide some help."
Yan Sinian thought for a moment and, for the first time, accepted something from Si Xi’s hand.
Their fingers inevitably touched.
I actually touched the senior’s hand.
Ying! Consider it as being imbued with Spiritual Energy!
I should carry this hand onto the plane, and not wash it for three days, no, a week.
