Chapter 1178 - 1108: Move Over
Liu Jinghui was deeply invested in Liu Chengming’s case.
He was somewhat different from Jiang Yuan. Compared to Jiang Yuan’s "utilitarian mindset," Liu Jinghui was more pure in his approach to the detective profession. To some extent, Jiang Yuan just wanted criminals to die, while Liu Jinghui contemplated how to play with criminals artistically.
Therefore, although Liu Chengming was already very likely to receive the death penalty due to the East Creek Lake body burning case, Liu Jinghui did not relent and stubbornly dug up a previous case.
Of course, this was of great significance to the Lanyue City Criminal Police Team. It was equivalent to solving another cold murder case, and it could even be considered a timely resolution. Otherwise, if they waited for the death penalty review and executed Liu Chengming, it would become difficult to solve the previous cold murder case.
This is also one of the reasons why cold murder cases are hard to solve. People die, and murderers are no exception. Furthermore, speaking from another perspective, murderers occupy a profession with a high mortality rate. Hence, the current case is easier to solve in time, but after a few years, the murderer always runs the risk of dying outside. Even if some physical evidence is found by then, it is still unfortunate without the suspect’s confession.
Jiang Yuan confirmed the completion of Liu Chengming’s case at noon. At that time, he was re-examining the corpse at the funeral home when suddenly a blue shimmering object appeared from a box of burnt bone fragments.
Jiang Yuan picked it up and saw Li Miaoyan’s legacy:
Youth Emotional Guidance (LV1) — Li Miaoyan never felt love and happiness, at least not before adulthood. Her sister was the first person to love her unconditionally. Li Miaoyan tried her best to meet all of her sister’s needs, hoping to make her sister feel love and happiness. Only after making this decision did Li Miaoyan realize how difficult it was. Nevertheless, she believed she could persist until her sister entered puberty and suddenly turned into a stranger...
Jiang Yuan glanced at the system interface in silence.
The two victims in the East Creek Lake case, including the murderer Liu Chengming, had not experienced a happy life. As for whether they had felt love, outsiders had no way to explore that.
