Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 158 Spreading Rumors and Guiding Opinions.
Late at night, Xiao Xia sat in front of her computer and found a document in her files.

Then I made a video using my phone.

The post reads: "[I've met Shi Moutang in person. She's very ordinary-looking, has had plastic surgery on over 90% of her face, and is extremely unfriendly in private. She's very obsequious to men, only hangs out with them, has no sense of boundaries, and knowingly becomes a mistress. Pictures don't lie.]"
She finished editing the text, added music to the video, and was about to click publish when her phone received a call from an unknown local number.

She answered the phone.

The food delivery has arrived.

Xiao Xia opened the window and looked down.

Upon seeing the deliveryman, she called out to him and then threw the rope down.

There was an iron hook at the end of the rope. The deliveryman hung the food on the hook, and Xiao Xia took the food out.

After receiving the takeout, she first opened it and ate a few bites.

Then I clicked "publish" on the video I had just watched.

While eating her spicy hot pot, she watched the video she posted yesterday.

This is also related to the revelations about Shi Moutang.

The comments section is very interesting.

The topic has been trending these past few days, mostly criticizing Shi Moutang. Xiao Xia looked at it and smiled: "A bunch of idiots, believing everything they're told."

She was smiling when she suddenly heard the door being pushed open.

At first, she thought it was the boss returning.

Instead, a person dressed entirely in black entered.

She was dressed in all black, with her hair in a bun, and wearing a black mask.

Even its mouth and eyes were not visible.

"Who are you?!" Xiao Xia jumped to her feet in fright. "Get out! I'll call the police if you come any closer!"

Xiao Xia's voice trembled with fear. She took a step forward, then retreated, intending to jump out of the window.

But the man in black was already in front of her, grabbed her arm, raised his right hand and smashed the back of the machete against her head.

Xiao Xia went limp and collapsed to the ground.

Her consciousness gradually faded as she looked at the man in black in front of her.

He watched as the man in black picked up the rope that was lying on the ground and put it around his neck.

As the feeling of suffocation overwhelmed her, she kicked her legs and gripped the rope, trying to resist, but she couldn't muster any strength.

Soon, everything went dark, and he lost consciousness.

Su Miaoyi saw these scenes through Xiao Xia's perspective.

On the way back to the Municipal Bureau, only Zhuang Yanzheng, Yan Cheng, and Su Miaoyi were in the car.

Su Miaoyi then told them what she had seen.

"The rope that Xiao Xia threw downstairs to get her takeout was the same rope that strangled her and hung her up," Su Miaoyi recalled. "That rope was originally tied to the table leg. But the knot I saw in the footage was very simple, not the way we saw it tied at the scene."

“If the murderer wanted to hang someone outside the window, they would definitely have used a more secure method of binding them,” Yan Cheng said. “The knot around the neck would tighten over time.”

Su Miaoyi nodded: "The iron hook on the rope was not found at the scene."

"The murderer took it? What did he do with it?" Yan Cheng asked, puzzled.

Zhuang Yanzheng said, "I just asked the clothing store owner. She bought the paint because she wanted to repaint the outside of the clothing store, but after buying it, she was too lazy to paint it and just left it there."

Are you going to paint the entire clothing store red?

Su Miaoyi felt it didn't quite suit her aesthetic. The red color looked too much like blood, and it made her uncomfortable.

"Where did the hands go?" Su Miaoyi suddenly remembered, "The head and hands found in the drainage ditch last night, the hands were also cut off."

She sat in the back seat, clinging to the back of the driver's seat, looking at Zhuang Yanzheng.

Zhuang Yanzheng nodded: "I'll ask them about the progress of the case when we get back."

Su Miaoyi leaned back in her seat, took out her phone and searched for Shi Moutang, then searched for Xiao Xia's ID.

More than two million followers.

Following the video posted by Xiao Xia, she found this Shi Moutang.

The ID is called Shi Rutang.

She searched for Shi Rutang again.

She is a dance streamer in short videos.

I currently have over 30 million followers. I also watched some related videos discussing the topic.

In the past week, I've lost over ten million followers.

However, Su Miaoyi couldn't find out exactly what happened for the time being.

It seems someone deleted some things, so it's all just snippets.

Some people say she's a womanizer.

Some say she is arrogant and rude in private.

Some people say she broke up the family of the top-ranking man.

Some people even say she was dating five boyfriends at the same time.
Various things.

Su Miaoyi looked at the video on her phone, thinking about the notebook she found on Xiao Xia's bed.

The notebook is in the evidence box, in another vehicle.

When Zhuang Yanzheng was browsing, she seemed to see Shi Rutang's ID.

The real name written in the notebook is: Shi Xiaoru.

Address, mobile phone number
Su Miaoyi frowned slightly, then immediately dialed the number.

It's already turned off.

I returned to the Municipal Bureau.

Su Miaoyi did not go to the dissection room with Yan Cheng this time.

She went to see Lu Zhishen first.

Although he didn't see the murderer's face, Lu Zhishen drew his figure.

Height and weight.

Holding the portrait, Su Miaoyi and Lu Zhishen went to check the surveillance footage together.

Xiangyao Street is a newly developed area, but behind the street are old houses, and behind those old houses is the street where the crime scene was located.

Every shop has installed surveillance cameras.

Yan Cheng said that Xiao Xia was murdered between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m.

The takeout order shows a meal prepared at 1 PM.

The delivery route takes about twenty minutes.

While surveillance footage provides access to specific time periods, the sheer volume of footage makes it difficult to monitor effectively.

We don't know where the murderer came from, nor where he left from.

You can only look at them one by one.

They watched until almost 3 p.m. when Chu Xingrou came to call them to a meeting.

Only one shop's surveillance camera captured the killer's figure for three seconds.

However, the murderer then disappeared from the surveillance footage and his whereabouts are unknown.

Moreover, the person in the surveillance video was wearing a very large hat, so their face was completely obscured.

meeting room.

First, I introduced the deceased's information.

Then Qi Feng stepped forward and shared the information they had gathered: "The deceased, Xiao Xia, has had her phone and computer turned on. We found a large number of videos and texts that incite cyberbullying and spread rumors on her phone and computer. We also found the addresses and phone numbers of some internet celebrities and stars, as well as the schedules of some artists."

"She profits by spreading rumors online and inciting cyberbullying." Qi Feng synced the content he found on her phone and computer to the screen and showed it to everyone.

“Take Shi Rutang, who is currently at the center of public opinion, as an example. Someone contacts Xiao Xia and gives her money, and she will fabricate some things, make videos, and post them online.” Qi Feng swiped the screen in front of him. “These are all evidence of other people contacting her, evidence of money transfers, and some copywriting she wrote. The people who contacted her have a need for copywriting.”

Many similar chat logs were communicated through an uncommon chat software.

Su Miaoyi had never seen this software before.

“This is her payment record, as well as the bank card details we found,” Qi Feng continued. “According to what we’ve found so far, she’s been doing these things for almost a year, and she also sells the phone numbers, addresses, and schedules of internet celebrities and stars to some people.”

　The next chapter will be a little later, so please don't wait.

　　I'd like to make a special mention of this.

　　The case was fabricated by me, completely made up.

　　Don't involve anyone else.

　　Goodnight everybody
