Only then did the audience who had been venting their emotions in the live broadcast room finally breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, they all started mocking the audience.

"It's finally coming to an end. It seems even the production crew can't stand it anymore."

"No wonder Raymond Lam was banned before. Even giving him a chance was useless! You're just a small-time entertainment industry fan, and you want to hook up with a top-tier female star? You're like a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"

"The production team should stop using gimmicks and honestly invite big-name stars to participate. Even if their acting skills are not up to par, their attitude must be sincere. For trash like Raymond Lam, I suggest banning him again!"

"That's right. What if someone who's only interested in hooking up with a celebrity and taking shortcuts corrupts the children?"

"That's great! The next show's broadcast date has been set. Doesn't that mean the investigation team has to solve these cases within two days? This puts the pressure on Captain Li!"

"Don't worry about that. Captain Li and his detective team are truly a team of experts. I don't think any case would be too difficult for them. Especially with a rookie like Lin Feng."

"Isn't it? As soon as someone reports the crime, Lin Feng and Tang Tang will be arrested, and this episode will be over."

……

County Bureau, Criminal Investigation Department.

Li Changan was checking files from previous years in front of the computer. Although he also participated in "Law Network: The End of Crime", due to the special nature of his identity, it was of course impossible for him to put down all his real work.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked in with a smile: "Lao Li, you are slacking off again!"

Li Changan shrugged. "I can't compare to you. I've already achieved financial freedom just from the royalties. Of course, I look down on frontline criminal investigation work."

The middle-aged man with glasses is named Fang Xiang, and he is an excellent forensic doctor in the system.

However, it was his published novels that really made him famous. Not only were they adapted into movies, but they also sparked a suspense craze in the industry.

Before the detective Li Changan could finish his words, he quickly covered his mouth. "Don't say that! When did I ever look down on frontline work? Don't think you can say whatever you want just because you're a detective. Be careful or I'll sue you for defamation!"

After chatting and laughing for a while, the two subconsciously changed the topic to the show:

"It's been almost 48 hours since the new show started, and we haven't received any reports of crime yet. It seems like this case might be a bit difficult."

"Of course we have to! If they were all small cases, what would be the point? This time, it's very likely a homicide. Otherwise, we would have received a report long ago."

Fang Xiang's eyes quickly lit up. "Finally, my skills are useful. In previous robberies and bombings, I was like an idiot at the scene."

"I advise you not to hold out too much hope for them. There's a good chance some amateurs will appear on this show. I can tell who's wrong with just one look."

Fang Xiang had no doubt about Li Changan's words.

After all, in several previous episodes, when the investigation team reached a deadlock, it was Li Changan who made the judgment based on his rich experience, allowing them to clear away the layers of fog and find the real culprit.

At this moment, a chuckle suddenly came from the door: "Old Li, you are really like Wang Po selling melons, boasting about your own products!"

"You little bastard, isn't what I said right?"

Li Changan immediately laughed: "How many times have you been late this week? Do you know how much your salary will be deducted this month?"

Just then, a handsome young man in his 20s, dressed in fashionable clothes, walked over quickly. As he walked, he swayed his head and tail to the music and said, "I have become Mr. Fang's disciple and plan to learn novel writing from him."

"No, don't you hear what people in your circle say? Writing novels is a dead end."

This startled Fang Xiang, who hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Besides, a great painter like you doesn't look like you're short of money. I heard that one of your college assignments sold for over 100,000 yuan."

"A hero never brags about his past achievements, otherwise I wouldn't have ended up under Captain Li's command!"

The young man's half-joking remark immediately caused a burst of laughter in the office.

However, no one took his words seriously, because only those who had worked with this handsome young man knew how talented he was.

After all, there are not many portrait artists who can depict the murderer's true face vividly based on the description alone.

It was because of his participation that Li Changan was able to solve one unsolved case after another.

Even the most popular TV series in the first half of the year, which featured a portrait artist as the protagonist, was based on this handsome young man, Chen Hai.

However, what is rather embarrassing is that after participating in this program, he has never had any outstanding performance.

After all, previous shows were scripted, and the criminals he drew bore no resemblance to the actors who played them.

Therefore, after learning about the previous conversation between Li Changan and Fang Xiang, he also became a little excited.

If it's really as they say, here's my chance to prove myself!

At this moment, the phone on Li Changan's desk suddenly rang frantically.

After hanging up the phone, Li Changan's expression suddenly became solemn: "A body was found in the artificial lake in Jinxiu Community! An old man saw it while taking a walk!"

Chen Hai and Fang Xiang stood up after a moment and said in unison, "Is it really a homicide?"

Li Changan nodded, then strode out of the office.

In the police car, Fang Xiang frowned. "Isn't the case the program crew arranged this time too simple? They actually dumped the body in the artificial lake in the residential area. Isn't this too casual?"

"You're oversimplifying things. Although the previous episodes didn't feature cases in Jinxiu Community, I've researched the surrounding communities—most of them were built in the 90s. They don't even have property management systems, let alone security cameras. At this point, the people still living there are mostly empty-nesters, and most of them are in bed by 8 p.m. Forget dumping a body in the artificial lake; even if you kill someone right there, no one will notice."

You know, as members of the program's detective team, Li Changan and the other two also have cameras on them.

After seeing this scene, many viewers frantically spread the news in other live broadcast rooms of the program.

"The investigation team has received a report that a body was found in the artificial lake in Jinxiu Community!"

Those viewers, already tired of watching Lin Feng and Tang Tang's affectionate displays, quickly flocked to the investigation team's livestream. Of course, many also expressed their doubts:

"Didn't Lin Feng hide the body in the refrigerator? How did it suddenly appear in the artificial lake of Jinxiu Community?"
