Chapter 73

These are precisely the points where the case has consistently failed to break through.

"Describing it in words might be a bit complicated."

In a silence-filled atmosphere,

Lu Shu spoke softly,

"I'll demonstrate it once for you all."

Just now, when he logged into his dark web account,

he had seen a public bounty for a murder,

and that bounty had already been claimed by a killer,

as for which killer had taken the job,

he didn't know yet.

But one thing could be roughly determined,

the killer who took the job had a lower ranking than him,

because with just a quick glance,

he could roughly deduce the killer's entire sequence of actions.

The movements weren't precise enough,

slightly crude.

Many details were missed,

leaving behind plenty of traces.

Those subtle traces might have gone unnoticed by the Major Crimes Unit and criminal investigation.

But in his eyes,

they were as bright as lanterns at night.

Hearing Lu Shu's words,

Liu Fan's expression shifted,

"You mean you're going to reconstruct the case?"

"Case reconstruction? So that's what you call it..."

"Then fine, call it that."

Lu Shu replied,

his gaze sweeping the room,

then spotting a pen on the bedside table, which he slipped into his pocket.

"Let's go, start from outside."

Lu Shu walked straight out of the room,

everyone else following behind him.

Until they reached the window at the end of the corridor,

he extended his finger toward the closed window,

"You've been wondering why none of the cameras in the entire hotel building,"

"captured any suspicious figures, right?"

"It wasn't that the killer disguised himself."

"It's that the killer never entered from inside at all."

As he spoke,

Lu Shu gently opened the window,

a fierce wind instantly rushed in.

"The top floor is very high, and because of the strong wind, the windows aren't opened often."

"But the dust on this window clearly shows it was opened recently."

"And here, there's a mark."

The others followed Lu Shu's finger and saw,

on the aluminum alloy groove beneath the windowsill,

an extremely faint, nearly invisible scratch.

Like one made by a rope.

Seeing this,

Liu Fan immediately ordered the Major Crimes Unit to quickly document and photograph this clue.

Then he looked up and asked,

"You mean... the killer climbed in through the window?"

As he spoke,

Liu Fan leaned out to glance outside the window,

nearly sixty meters down!

He continued with a tone of disbelief,

"The height here is nearly sixty meters."

"And the entire exterior is glass curtain wall."

"Can a killer really climb up barehanded?"

Liu Fan truly found it hard to believe,

Why does that sound like something from a movie?

But Lu Shu nodded lightly.

"It's not hard."

"Let me demonstrate for you."

Demonstrate???

Liu Fan couldn't react for a moment.

Yet Lu Shu had already opened the fire box by the window,

and pulled out a section of fire hose from inside.

Then, before everyone's stunned eyes,

he calmly leaped straight out the window.

This sudden scene

left everyone in the corridor completely numb.

He just... jumped?

Liu Fan had even instinctively reached out to grab him just now,

looked at his empty fingers,

then glanced at the dozens of meters of height outside,

and froze entirely.

"Damn it!"

"How is this young man so reckless?"

"Just jump when he says jump?"

This is a full dozens of meters high!

If even a single accident occurred,

he would absolutely be smashed to death!

In the silent corridor,

only that coil of fire hose kept whirling noisily,

until the entire length of the pipe had fully extended,

it let out a "clang!"

That single sound

made everyone in the corridor break out in a cold sweat at once,

fearing the fire hose would snap under the pressure.
