Chapter 104 Crime Tools
Xiao Tiantian System popped up: "Host has triggered a new random task: Find the true perpetrator who hurt Wang Yongfu and make him face punishment! Reward for completing the task is 10 Points. If the host accepts this random task, this system can assist in scanning for any metal objects nearby and estimate the assailant’s general data based on footprints. Does the host accept the task?"
Isn’t that a rhetorical question? 10 Points, man, you’d be an idiot not to take it!
"I accept! I accept!" Wang Yongzhu, fearing the System might retract the offer, hastily agreed.
Xiao Tiantian became silent for a moment, then spoke, "According to this system’s scan, there is a metal object 200 meters to the left and behind the host. Based on system data analysis, this metal object is the culprit that pried the stone, resulting in Brother Song’s injury. Additionally, the system has scanned the footprints in the area, and data analysis suggests the following: the assailant is approximately 14 or 15 years old, about 165 centimeters tall, slim in build, and weaker in strength compared to peers, with a possibility of the assailant having six toes on their left foot. Fingerprints of the assailant remain on the metal object, which also has traces of ink."
Wang Yongzhu was stunned; this was almost a sketch of the assailant’s appearance. The age was pinpointed, height identified, weak strength, and slim build indicated that the culprit likely wasn’t a child used to farm labor, especially considering the final detail—that there were traces of ink on the metal object.
In the whole of Qilidun, there weren’t many families who used ink. As for the possibility of the assailant having six toes on the left foot, she couldn’t just force every young man to take off his shoes to check, could she?
However, with the System’s help, the scope of the search had narrowed significantly, and Wang Yongzhu was filled with confidence.
After some thought, she deliberately picked up a twig and began to rummage through the bushes, explaining to Song Chongjin, "Brother Song, I’m going to look around this area, see if there might be any other findings."
While talking, seemingly without any particular aim, she looked here and there, but was careful to avoid the area directly in front of Song Chongjin.
Song Chongjin, wholly absorbed in observing the moisture of the grass, branches, and soil, only nodded without sparing her an additional glance.
Wang Yongzhu couldn’t have hoped for better, and she forced herself to control her pace as she inched toward her target.
