From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

"He was lying on the road at that time, with a huge pool of blood that flowed all the way to the gutter. It had already dried up when I saw it," gestured Sister Lin, the owner of the mahjong hall.

There is always light at the end of the tunnel. Tian Yu never expected that Sister Lin had witnessed a murder case that happened fourteen years ago. "I've seen this case before, but it's said that the murderer hasn't been caught yet?"

Sister Lin approached Tian Yu and said, "No one was caught. The person who died was a college student. It was at night and businesses closed early. No one saw how he died. After that, surveillance cameras were installed on Xichuan Road. It's now a milk tea shop. It used to be a bar and it was doing good business."

"That man was a student at Xichuan Music University. He often sang in that bar. The bar closed shortly after he died." Tian Yu poured a glass of water for Sister Lin so that she could continue. "Coincidentally, the bar that closed the latest on the day he died just closed down."

"There was a lot of commotion when the body was found. He had no clothes on." Sister Lin still has lingering fears when she talks about the scene she witnessed. "The blood trail stretched for at least 30 to 40 meters on the ground, and there were a bunch of random patterns drawn on the ground."

"What pattern?" This reminded Tian Yu of the circle of strange patterns next to Wang Wei's body.

"I can't remember clearly, but it's probably something like this." Sister Lin described it on Tian Yu's palm.

[Countdown to the end of the instance 276:09:26]

It was afternoon now, but Tian Yu felt a little chilly. The time of the copy was constantly passing, and her life was hanging by a thread. Some clues were just around the corner in front of her, but she could not grasp the key information.

She decided to take the initiative.

As night fell, there were fewer people in the mahjong hall and it was no longer as lively as it was during the day. Because of Wang Wei's case, everyone was still a little scared at night.

Without physical support, climbing the wall becomes unrealistic.

Tian Yu put on his equipment and walked into the mahjong hall downstairs from Wang Wei's house. At that time, there was only a table of people playing mahjong next door, but Sister Lin did not turn off the lights in Wang Wei's shop downstairs.

Empowerment props activated!

Tian Yu sneaked through the hall at an extremely fast speed and walked directly to the stairs. She had observed this when she came to Wang Wei to cause trouble that day, and there was no surveillance here.

With gloves, shoe covers and even her hair wrapped tightly, Tian Yu opened the door of Wang Wei's house with her skilled lock-picking skills. After the first copy, she reviewed for a long time.

It seems that this is not the crime scene, so there is no seal. Tian Yu carefully walked into Wang Wei's house and took out the night vision goggles from the safe house. This was one of her trophies.

She took a quick glance at the living room, which was exactly the same as when she came in that day, as slovenly as a typical single man living alone should be. Next to the TV in the living room, she saw a childhood photo of a girl. After comparing their looks, Tian Yu directly opened the door of Wang Wei's room.

At this time, she was sure that Wang Wei had some secrets. Because he didn't clean often, there was dust behind the computer desk in his room. Judging from the shape, he should have been using a laptop, but it had disappeared.

Whoever took his computer must have something to do with his secret.

Looking through the room, Tian Yu found no signs of much rummaging. Such a sophisticated method was most likely done by the police.

Tian Yu’s first survey began.

The clothes in the wardrobe are simply displayed at a glance. Looking at the brands and materials, based on Chui's experience in running a clothing store, he can judge that they are all cheap items.

Wang Wei's bed was very messy, and it seemed that he didn't have the habit of folding the quilt normally. After a rough search, Tian Yu opened the bedside table against the wall.

There were no important items stored inside, but there was a stack of photo albums that looked quite old. Most of the photos in them were of Wang Wei's daughter Wang Ran when she was a child. The records started from her birth and stopped when she was about seven or eight years old.

Wang Wei seldom cleans his house. There is dust on the bedside table, but the handle is very smooth. There is not much dust on the floor in front of the cabinet. There is not much adhesion between the plastic covers of the photo albums, which shows that he often looks at them.

Judging from the dust on the rest of the floor, the side against the wall is not where Wang Wei often walks. Wang Wei should have gotten on the bed from the closet side, then opened the door of the bedside table against the wall on the bed, and then took out the photo album and opened it.

Not finding many clues in the room, Tian Yu went to the kitchen.

The refrigerator's fresh-keeping function had been damaged. When I opened it, a sour smell came out. There were a few plates of simple leftovers inside, and the freezer was empty.

The cleanliness of the kitchen utensils, seasoning bottles and stove is enough to show that Wang Wei has the habit of cooking for himself. Combined with his daily behavior in Xichuan Road, it can be seen that his eating habits are extremely simple, even shabby.

The same thing happened in the bathroom. There were no extra supplies at all. The water heater had been unplugged. Tian Yu turned on the water and found it was completely cold. It must have been unplugged for quite some time. His water heater had a heat preservation function and it would not have been unplugged during the police search.

This move is mostly to save some electricity bills.

After looking at the whole house, Tian Yu had a lot of speculations, but he didn't find any of Wang Wei's secrets. This was not right.

There are only three possibilities for why it cannot be found: one is that it has been taken away by the police or someone else, two is that he did not leave it at home, and three is that he has no secrets.

Tian Yu thought the last possibility was unlikely. Wang Wei even dared to install surveillance cameras and became the first person to die on Xichuan Road. Did he have no secrets? Who would believe him if he told others?

Tian Yu was powerless to do anything about the first situation, but he might be able to think of a solution for the second situation.

After leaving Wang Wei's house, Tian Yu walked back to her own residence in the dark. She had tried it out in the safe house. The stealth jacket would not allow the user to be captured by surveillance cameras, but the noise of opening and closing the door by herself was a bit dangerous.

Back in the house, Tian Yu activated the prop monitoring modifier and adjusted the monitoring range of the entrance of his store.

Today's discovery has pointed Tian Yu in a significant direction.

"Wang Wei's life was very simple. There was no sign of any large-scale consumption in his home. He cooked for himself every day and even didn't repair his broken refrigerator.

According to Wang Wei's daily life on Xichuan Road, he does not have many bad habits. He occasionally drinks and plays mahjong, and he has not traveled far in two years.

Chui’s monthly rent is 4000 yuan. Logically, a shop alone should be enough for Wang Wei to live a good life, so where did the money go?

Wang Wei's daughter Wang Ran's tuition and living expenses for college attendance total at least 40,000 yuan per month, which is obviously a considerable burden for Wang Wei. Judging from the family's situation, he obviously loves his daughter very much.

The question is, a daughter who used her father's money to study abroad at a top university, did not send any souvenirs or items from abroad to her father's home who supported her studies in two years?

Furthermore, no matter how frugally Wang Wei lived, it would be difficult for him to raise enough money for his daughter's education and living expenses.

The photo of Wang Wei stopped when Wang Ran was a child, which means that he rarely saw his daughter after divorcing his ex-wife. If Wang Ran found her father, it probably means that she did not receive any financial support, and even if there was a scholarship, it would be a drop in the bucket.

It is not easy for Wang Wei to use up all his money to support Wang Ran to go abroad. Apart from having savings, how can he fill the gap in daily life?

Why was Wang Ran unwilling to return to China after her father passed away when her father was so devoted to her?

The direction is clear. Tian Yu needs to clarify two issues. One is where Wang Wei's money comes from, and the other is whether Wang Ran has any unspeakable hidden dangers or secrets.
