Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms

The night was dark, and the moonlight shone through the sparse clouds, sprinkling on the ancient streets of S City, covering the city with a layer of mysterious silver gauze. Xu Youran and Situ Han walked side by side on the way back to the mansion, and both of them were filled with questions and speculations about the murder in the bathhouse.

Xu Youran (thoughtfully): "That photo... why did it appear here? What is the connection between it and the bathhouse murder case, or even the entire serial mystery?"

Situ Han (with deep eyes): "The appearance of the photo is by no means accidental. It is like a signal, guiding us to uncover more dusty secrets. You Ran, we must be more careful, because the enemy has declared war on us."

The two were silent for a moment, and their pace unconsciously quickened, as if they were both looking forward to unraveling the mystery as soon as possible.

The next morning, Xu Youran and Situ Han came to the bathhouse again. This time, they decided to conduct a more detailed investigation and not miss any clues.

Site Investigation

Xu Youran put on gloves and carefully checked the clothes and belongings of the deceased, trying to find clues related to the photo. Situ Han, holding a magnifying glass, searched every corner of the bathhouse for possible evidence.

Xu Youran (discovering something unusual): "Look, there's a tiny scratch here, like it was accidentally scratched by some sharp object. Moreover, this position is right opposite to where the deceased was found."

Situ Han (nods): "Indeed, this scratch may be an important clue. We need to find the object that can cause this scratch."

Afterwards, the two conducted detailed interviews with the bathhouse's employees, customers, and people who might have witnessed the incident. During the interrogation, they noticed a nervous man who repeatedly avoided key questions during the interrogation, which aroused their suspicion.

Xu Youran (direct and sharp): "Sir, we noticed that you were a little hesitant when answering our questions. May I ask, have you been here on the day of the incident? Did you find anything special?"

The man's eyes flickered and he hesitated, but finally under Xu Youran's questioning he revealed that he was indeed in the bathhouse that day and saw some unusual things.

Man (whispering): "I... I was there that day. I saw a man sneaking around the bathhouse and looking at the deceased from time to time. But I didn't think much of it at the time. I thought he was just an ordinary customer."

This clue made Xu Youran and Situ Han's eyes light up, and they immediately decided to track down the suspicious man. After a series of investigations and tracking, they finally found the man's hiding place and successfully captured him.

In the interrogation room, the man finally confessed that he was one of the men behind the murder, responsible for creating chaos in the bathhouse and framing others. He also revealed a shocking news: the entire serial mystery was carefully planned by the mastermind to cover up the truth of the murder of a family in S City 30 years ago.

Situ Han (coldly): "The murder of a whole family thirty years ago? How many unknown secrets are hidden behind this?"

Man (smiles bitterly): "I am just following orders, I don't know the specific situation. But I know that the mastermind behind this is very powerful, he controls the life and death of many people. We are just pawns in his hands."

As the investigation deepened, Xu Youran and Situ Han gradually realized that behind this seemingly simple bathhouse murder case, there was such a shocking conspiracy. They couldn't help but start to wonder whether every bizarre case that happened in S City in recent years was inextricably linked to this mastermind behind the scenes.

Xu Youran (worried): "If this is true, then our enemies are stronger and more cunning than we imagined. We must be more cautious in order to win this war without gunpowder."

Situ Han (firm): "No matter how powerful the enemy is, we cannot retreat. For justice and for those innocent victims, we must uncover every corner of this web."

Just as Xu Youran and Situ Han were preparing to further interrogate the man to get more clues about the mastermind behind the incident, a mysterious messenger suddenly broke into the interrogation room and handed them a secret letter.

Messenger (expressionless): "This is the answer you want. But remember, this is just the beginning."

After saying that, the messenger disappeared into the night. Xu Youran and Situ Han opened the secret letter and saw a complicated map and a line of words marked in red pen: "Under the bathhouse, the truth is yet to be revealed."

Xu Youran (shocked): "Under the bathhouse? Could it be that..."

Situ Han (with a sharp gaze): "It seems that our previous guesses were all correct. This mastermind has not only woven an intricate web in S City, but his roots may be buried deep in the place we least expect - under the bathhouse. You Ran, this time, we have to dive into deeper darkness and uncover the secret that has been sealed for thirty years."

Xu Youran (clenching his fists): "No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will walk with you. This is not only for justice, but also for the souls of those innocent people to rest in peace."

The two looked at each other, without saying anything, their eyes were full of determination and resoluteness. They knew that the road ahead would be full of thorns, but they knew even more clearly that only by revealing the truth of all this could S City truly usher in light.

In the following days, Xu Youran and Situ Han began a more difficult investigation based on the map in the secret letter. They discovered that there was a huge underground space hidden under the bathhouse, which not only had complex passages and secret rooms, but also stored a large amount of physical evidence and information related to the murder case thirty years ago.

In the process, they encountered many obstacles, including the pursuit from the mastermind behind the scenes and the interference from certain forces within City S. But it was these difficulties and obstacles that made the relationship between the two closer and the trust between them deeper.

During a late night exploration, they accidentally discovered a secret room, which contained a yellowed photo. The person in the photo was one of the missing victims in the murder case thirty years ago. This photo became the key evidence for them to uncover the truth.

Xu Youran (eyes slightly red): "Look, these are the real victims. We must not turn a blind eye to their pain and injustice."

Situ Han (holding Xu Youran's hand tightly): "Yes, Youran. We must not only seek justice for them, but also let everyone know that justice may be late, but it will never be absent."

Just as they were about to make this important discovery public, a new anonymous letter appeared in front of them again. There was only one sentence in the letter: "The truth will soon be revealed, but the real challenge has just begun."

Xu Youran (brows furrowed): "What... does this mean?"

Situ Han (pondering for a moment): "Perhaps, this means that what we are about to uncover is just the tip of the iceberg. Thirty years of grievances and hatreds are far more complicated and profound than we imagined. But no matter what, we will not give up."
