My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 225 - 123: The First Confrontation Between Phoenix a

The highest level of burglary is to leave no trace, so that the owner won't even know sothing is missing unless they check.

Eventually, when they find out, they have no way to trace it.

This kind of ss at the cri scene is only done by novices among thieves.

Zhao Dong looked at the cri scene with disdain and said, "Sir, this definitely wasn't done by so petty thief, this rough work, a petty thief can't afford to lose that much face..."

Li Anning also began to believe that the Huang couple wasn't killed by this person.

Otherwise, his acting skills must be too good.

She looked at Li Nuo and said, "Are you suggesting that after he left, another thief happened to enter the Huang Mansion and during the search for valuables, the Huang couple was awakened and subsequently killed to silence them?"

Li Nuo didn't respond, he walked to the door and observed the door bolt, then suddenly asked Zhao Dong, "After you left that day, did you put the door bolt back in its place?"

Zhao Dong nodded and said, "Of course, that's the most basic procedure, I always put the door bolt back after stealing."

Li Anning grew impatient and tugged at Li Nuo's sleeve, saying, "What did you find, just say it..."

Li Nuo pointed to so traces on the door bolt and said, "These are the marks left by Zhao Dong when he moved the door bolt, from these marks, this door bolt hasn't been moved by a second person..."

Before Zhao Dong left, he closed the door from the inside.

After him, no second person ca in.

But the Huang couple was dead.

Li Anning thought for a mont, pointed at Zhao Dong, and asked Li Nuo, "Are you suggesting he's lying, and he's the killer?"

Zhao Dong sat down on the ground with a thump, lanting, "Oh my god, how did it co back to this!"

Li Nuo shook his head and said, "The housekeeper of the Huang Mansion said earlier this morning the door was open, and the Huang couple was found dead inside. Either Zhao Dong is lying, or it could be the second person who ca in used another thod to open the door without leaving any marks on the door bolt and, in a rush, forgot to close the door, or maybe he intentionally didn't close it—a murderer wouldn't take the ti to put the door bolt back after killing soone..."

Li Anning looked puzzled, "Another thod?"

Li Nuo explained, "If the door bolt was moved with True Qi, it wouldn't leave any marks."

Li Anning said, "That's impossible. To do that, one must possess cultivation above the True Qi Realm. If it were a Martial Artist of the True Qi Realm, killing the Huang couple would be as easy as turning one's hand, and there wouldn't be so many signs of struggle in the room..."

Li Nuo retorted, "What if it was staged?"

Li Anning also realized sothing and muttered, "You an, after Zhao Dong, a Martial Artist above the True Qi Realm entered here and killed the Huang couple, pretending not to know the Martial Path, leaving so struggle traces at the scene so we wouldn't suspect him..."

If that were the case, the murderer's planning could be deed perfect.

Given the traces left at the scene, the governnt would surely think this was a burglary turned homicide.

Such cases, nine out of ten remain unsolved, ultimately leading nowhere.

The murderer might not have expected that soone would eradicate the Thief Sect entirely, catching even the wrong ones just to not miss the real thief.

Of course, catching that thief was not a problem.

By this point, based on the overt evidence, the thief would beco his scapegoat.

In fact, if it wasn't for Li Nuo, Zhao Dong would have already been convicted.

Li Anning still couldn't comprehend, this god-like intuition of his, how did it co about.

As she investigated further, she also vaguely felt that Zhao Dong might indeed not be the killer of the Huang couple.

Li Nuo hadn't expected this case to be so complex.

The timing chosen by the murderer was impeccable. If not for the Law Code warning them, he would have been deceived as well.

The question is, how did the murderer know that Zhao Dong was going to steal from the Huang Family that night?

Li Nuo looked at Zhao Dong and asked, "Who else knew you were going to burgle the Huang Mansion that night?"

Zhao Dong stood up from the ground and said, "I was passing by here that day and saw the Huang couple staggeringly drunk, heading ho. It was a spur-of-the-mont decision, usually, the drunk sleep heavy, making it the perfect ti to strike..."

Even Zhao Dong decided on the spur of the mont, so the murderer couldn't have known.

Unless he was from the Huang Mansion and saw Zhao Dong in action.

But that possibility was excluded from the start.

The servants present in the Huang Mansion that night were all accounted for, and the Law Code had no reaction at that ti.

Perhaps the murderer had been watching the Huang couple for a long ti, and Zhao Dong's action provided him with the chance to fra soone else.

But the Huang couple had no known enemies, and Li Nuo had checked their business rivals, finding nothing amiss.

Now he was completely out of leads.

Due to this case, he had uprooted the Thief Sect, adding over a thousand days to his life.

But the case itself remained unresolved.

There was nothing more Li Nuo could do at this point.

Although sowhat regretful, his gains during the investigation had far exceeded expectations.

Originally he thought he might gain ten days of life, but the final gain was over a hundred tis more.

As Li Nuo and Li Anning left the room, they heard two Chiefs from the Ministry of Justice discussing sothing in the courtyard.

The Huang couple, although wealthy, had no children.

Not only that, but Old Master Huang also had no brothers or sisters.
