At the critical moment, Tang Jinglong raised his arm to block the incoming club. With a crack, his raised arm went limp and fell, clearly broken. The intense pain caused him to scream violently. In the middle of his scream, Tang Jinglong frantically grabbed at the ground, throwing scattered flower petals at Zeng Peng. Zeng Peng was slightly hindered, and his second swing missed. These things obstructed Zeng Peng's vision, causing his second strike to miss. The surrounding people also snapped…-

Ning City's flower and bird market was in the old district, a three-story building on a piece of land the size of a soccer field. The first floor sold flowers, birds, insects, and fish; the second floor sold cats, dogs, and rabbits; and the third floor was a gathering place for small crafts made of glass, resin, and wood. Despite its lack of fancy decoration, the market was bustling with people and crowded with shops. When Ji Xun found Destiny Florist, he discovered it was a flower shop located in the…

"Thanks." Huo Ranyin tucked away the surprise on his face and looked at the item Ji Xun handed him. "Tell me about these two clues?" Ji Xun waved his phone, still listless, too lazy to say an extra word. "The full content is written in a TXT file. Turn on your Bluetooth, I'll send it to you." Huo Ranyin turned on his Bluetooth and quickly received a document. While he was reading the document, Ji Xun swiped his book and sat up from the long recliner. "I'm leaving." "—Wait." Ji Xun looked…

On the morning of the 18th, Huo Ranyin received a report from the lab. From the leaf Ji Xun had sent over yesterday, they had urgently extracted something entirely new—new DNA and nylon fibers. The nylon fibers had some white paint on them. The trace evidence technicians speculated that the killer might have worn a common pair of nylon anti-static gloves to prevent leaving fingerprints at the scene. The paint did not match the materials used in the crime scene's renovation, suggesting the killer had…

Ji Xun's figure disappeared from the doorway. Huo Ranyin's thoughts were a bit chaotic. He lowered his head in contemplation but saw something on the floor. A keychain with a metal girl's head avatar. It was Ji Xun's. He had seen it on him once before—the time he went to Ji Xun's house. Huo Ranyin bent down to pick up the keychain and chased after him to return it. But not long after he left the room, he heard voices from the backyard—two of them, Ji Xun and Yuan Yue. "Here, your…

Looking at dismemberment photos before bed is really not conducive to sleep. In his dream, Ji Xun heard a "knock—knock—knock—" sound coming from within his own mind. The sound was like someone snapping their fingers against his skull, causing vibrations and echoes in his brain, leading to a cranial hemorrhage and death in his dream. What a horror movie. Ji Xun's thoughts drifted aimlessly. He lay motionless, feeling the numbness of sleep paralysis in a half-awake state, silently counting.…

I... Caught in the room, Ji Xun was momentarily speechless. Just ten minutes ago, he thought his luck was good, that everything was going so smoothly. A person can't get too complacent, right? Now, trouble has come. His gaze swept quickly around the room. There was no suspended ceiling. The bathroom and the master bedroom were connected, separated only by a transparent glass wall, offering a clear view; even without the transparent glass, anyone pushing the door open would see everything. Not a…

"Anything else?" Huo Ranyin asked after a moment of thought. "Nothing," Ji Xun said. "Really?" Huo Ranyin was skeptical. "Really, not a single drop left," Ji Xun nearly rolled his eyes. Huo Ranyin's expression turned dangerous. Ji Xun put on a 'dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water' facade—anyway, Tan Mingjiu was right there. At worst, he could hide behind Tan Mingjiu. He looked at Tan Mingjiu, assessing how to use his not-so-imposing frame as a shield. Huo Ranyin followed his…

"He has needle marks on his arm," Huo Ranyin said, picking up the cards again and shuffling them slowly. The cards flew between his hands like sprites. "You took one look through the window and figured out he was a drug addict?" "I judged by his face," Huo Ranyin remained unflappable. "Good luck." "Heh," Ji Xun chuckled. Usually, he was the one surprising others; this time, it was his turn to be surprised. With the situation now in the other's hands, Ji Xun thought he should leave, but just then,…

Night fell, and the lights came on one by one. A fog of desire swirled in the bewitching darkness, and at the center of this fog was an entire street of bars in Ning City. At the end of this bar street was a place called "Raccoon." The bar had recently hired a nonchalant drummer with a big reputation. Whether he came to the bar or played the drums was completely irregular, all depending on his mood. But this was a society of "individuality" and "exceptionalism," so he had instead become the star…
