Chapter 188: The murder files

She left the building with a fluttering heart, hearing that Mu Qingzi had a child in the back of the car when she came to the town made her hopeful. Could it be her son?

"Or it could be her real child?" T4 said to her.

"Do you have to poop on my good mood?" she replied angrily. Was it too much for him to allow her be happy and hopeful for a few minutes?

"I am a virtual pet system, I don’t poop." T4 replied unhappily. "I am just cautioning you so that you don’t get your hopes up only to crush harder than an asteroid later on."

His words were like as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her forcing her to wake up. She needed to stop daydreaming.

She sent Muyang that audio file too, now at least they could filter out the women who received plastic surgery on their faces and concentrate on those who had burn marks. That would be easier to do; in fact it was simpler now. All they had to do was search for women who were hospitalized with burns on their faces in the last three years.

"Miss Paparazzo host, you have not posted anything in a while, you should at least respond to the thank you posts you have received."

She looked at her phone to see what was going on. First of all the police had arrested Call me Ai for defamation. Charges had been pressed by little sunshine Chen Chu and Li Shenqiang.

The mighty little peep star had been tagged in quite a number of posts. One of them was from the official account of Li Shenqiang.

Official rich Shen: Thank you @mighty little peep star for restoring my good name. If you ever need a favor, I will happily help you out.

Our star is rich: Thank you @mighty peep star, our rich lady’s fan club will forever defend anyone who tries to defame you.

This was from Li Shenqiang’s fan club.

The Mighty Little peep star: @Li Shenqiang, you are welcome and I will collect on that favor someday.

There was also a new thank you post from Chen Chu’s new verified account.

@Forever Little Sunshine: Thank you @Mighty little peep star for proving my innocence. For the last few years, I have been scared to show my face in public because every time I did, people would point and call me names. I could not find a decent job, my friends abandoned me. I have been living in the dark with no hope of ever seeing the light. Yesterday, my old company reached out to me, offering a new contract. Some other companies did the same thing but I turned them all down. None of these famous companies reached a hand out when I was drowning. I will be signing with Phoenix Entertainment tonight, a new company which will give me a fresh start. I owe you big time peep star.

So her brother had taken Chen Chu in, Chi Rui really moved fast. Originally she was planning to suggest it, now there was no need to. Her brother was doing a good job on his own.

"I have some good news for you host, the yellow sticker with bumble bees belongs to the Cloud kindergarten and primary schools. It is a private school in the capital, very expensive and exclusive to get into. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence but the school has only been in existence for three and a half years." T4 informed her. He started the search for the school immediately he heard about the yellow sticker.

"Send it to Muyang." She replied.

"Already done, aren’t you glad you have me?" he asked proudly.

Chi Lian smiled secretly. Of course she was glad to have the system. Whichever deity had sent it to her received all the thanks in her heart.

"I am glad to have you in my life T4." She replied.

"Good, now concentrate on the mission so that I am not forcefully put into sleeping mode or shut down or restricted in some other awful way." He shouted at her unhappily. His fox teeth were sharp and he was even pointing at her like a parent to a disobedient or ungrateful child.

"Eh, I will do that." She responded in shock. T4 was very stressed about this mission it seemed. Did systems even have stress and worries?

She took some files out of her bag as the cab drove her to the original hotel which Piggy had picked. It was the hotel closest to the first crime scene where the first victim of the sleeping killer was found dead in his home.

This was a file compiled by the police, from the first murder to the most recent one. T4 got a hold of it and put it together for her. This file had theories, suspects who were exonerated and those who were still under suspicion.

The one thing she did not have but wanted to look at where the personal notes of the detectives who investigated the case. Sometimes, they had theories and hunches which were not included in the files. It was her intention however to speak to one such detective. He worked the first case six years ago, he was now retired but he still lived in the area.

According to the file, the victims had nothing in common. Their ages were different, they were of both genders, some were old and others were young. In fact the youngest victim was a teenager. This killer was a puzzling one; he was all over the place. The only thing which was a constant was the method of killing and the dumping site. It was always water, mostly the lake. Except for the first victim, he was found at home in his swimming pool.

The original assumption as cause of death was drowning until the coroner discovered a needle mark and after an autopsy, it was determined that the victim died of an embolism because someone injected and empty syringe into his heart.

Death by air was certainly a new concept to the police in the capital, especially when it was being used in serial murder. Perhaps this is why the list of suspects included doctors, nurses and veterinarians. It was assumed that only people who worked with or had access to syringes in large numbers could commit the crimes. This was because the syringe which was used in the murder was always found in a trash can nearby. However it would be wiped clean, no fingerprints were found. That or the killer wore gloves.

For Chi Lian the only case that mattered was the first one, something happened in that case and it was personal. This was an unplanned killing, the victim and the killer had to be connected somehow.
