Liu Jinghui hurried to the funeral parlor.
He hadn't come during the apprehension because he wasn't interested. For him, the investigation and deduction stage were the most fascinating. By the time Jiang Yuan had found the murderer and used surveillance to lock down the suspect step by step, watching the actual capture held no thrill for Liu Jinghui.
He had solved numerous cases and apprehended even more suspects; just another small-time killer, and a hired one at that, was hardly worth his attention.
However, when this 35-year-old man, not so young, alone at 3 a.m. eating hot pot, with superb balance, a hint of professional ability, and willing to be hired for murder, leapt headfirst to his death from the fourth floor, Liu Jinghui's interest in him surged instantly.
