Hong Kong film: Forever, a killer with amazing skills

"It's alright, we came back after Peng Yixing's funeral."

Ye Tianming said.

"Peng Yixing? That sharpshooter? He's dead?!"

Liang Xiaorou looked at Ye Tianming in surprise.

She only knew that Ye Tianming went to the United States, but she didn't know exactly what he was there to do.

"Yes, he's dead, so your police force can withdraw his arrest warrant."

Ye Tianming said.

Upon hearing this, Liang Xiaorou nodded, thinking that she would report the news when she got back.

As for why Ye Tianming still has contact with Peng Yixing?

That's not something she should ask.

I'm sure the higher-ups won't interfere.

after all;

Given Ye Tianming's status and position, even the top police officer would have to treat him with utmost respect and would even have to offer him tea and water.

How could those people have the audacity to question Ye Tianming?

This is Hong Kong's richest man!

Even on a scale across Asia, he is the number one super-rich person.

Their wealth reached the level of Ye Tianming.

Even the powerful and wealthy have to fawn over him.

To put it bluntly;

Whether it's Hong Kong or the sunset empire behind it, it's all part of the capitalist world.

Having money and a wide enough network of connections is equivalent to having power!

of course!

Ye Tianming didn't really care about these things.

But what can you do when other people care?

So even though Ye Tianming didn't explicitly say anything.

But as soon as he reveals even the slightest bit of information, those who are constantly watching him will immediately devise various countermeasures based on that information.

Nothing else;

One was to curry favor with Ye Tianming.

Another reason was to avoid offending this man!

It's best to please them if possible, but even if you can't, you shouldn't offend them at all.

It's that simple.

Ye Tianming chatted with Wen Jiaxi for a few minutes, and then the topic returned to the case.

What do you think of these two corpses?

Ye Tianming asked Wen Jiaxi.

Wen Jiaxi shook his head and said, "We have no clue. We can't find the cause of death, but it may be related to the missing head. As for the method of murder, we can't analyze it at all. At present, our forensic department has no clues to provide."

Upon hearing this, Liang Xiaorou, who was standing to the side, also sighed.

Then she looked at Ye Tianming, hoping he could offer some constructive suggestions.

"I have made some discoveries."

Ye Tianming said.

Upon hearing this;

Wen Jiaxi and Liang Xiaorou both looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"Look at these two corpses, aren't they a little too clean?"

Ye Tianming pointed to the two corpses in front of him and said.

"Yes, that's why nothing can be found because it's too clean."

Wen Jiaxi said.

"But being too clean is itself a clue."

Ye Tianming said.

"What do you mean?"

Liang Xiaorou looked at him and asked.

"Think about it, when a murderer kills someone, he doesn't knock them unconscious first and then check their entire body to make sure they don't have any tattoos, scars, birthmarks, or anything like that before deciding whether to kill them, right?"

Ye Tianming said.

Liang Xiaorou thought for a moment, then nodded.

If that were the case, then someone would have already reported being attacked or something.

Even if one or two people choose not to report the crime to avoid trouble, it is clear that the murderer could not have found two such clean targets by simply asking a few people.

This base number is very likely to be in the double digits or even the triple digits!

It's normal for one or two people not to report a crime, but it's not normal for none of them to report one.

Therefore;

It can be largely ruled out that the killer examined the target's body first before deciding whether to commit the crime.

"So, what kind of profession allows a murderer to see the entire bodies of these victims?"

Ye Tianming asked the two of them.

"The staff of the bathhouse, or the guests who frequent the bathhouse."

Wen Jiaxi spoke first.

"The ladies in the red-light district can also see the customers' bodies."

Liang Xiaorou then offered another possibility.

“That’s right, it’s either a bathhouse or a prostitute.” Ye Tianming nodded and said, “After all, even doctors don’t examine every patient’s entire body right away, and even surgeons can’t observe that carefully.”

"And the two most likely locations are the ones you just mentioned."

"Ah Ming, I knew I was right to come to you!"

After hearing Ye Tianming's words, Liang Xiaorou also showed a happy smile.

Although the range of suspects Ye Tianming provided was still quite large, it had narrowed down considerably compared to when they had no clue at all!

"I will arrange for people to investigate all the bathhouses in Hong Kong right away."

After saying that, Liang Xiaorou left in a hurry.

After all, she had only been given five days to solve the case, so she had to make the most of every second.

After Liang Xiaorou left, only Ye Tianming and Wen Jiaxi remained in the morgue.

Wen Jiaxi looked at him.

"Are you free tonight?"

she asked.

"Yes, if you invite me, I'll make time for you even if I'm not available."

Ye Tianming smiled and said.

"Really?" Wen Jiaxi said with a smile in her eyes, "What if I wanted to monopolize you for several days? You'd still have time?"

"That won't do, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

As Ye Tianming spoke, he reached out and gently took Wen Jiaxi's small hand.

"Hmph! We're not sure who's incapable!"

Wen Jiaxi gently slapped his hand away, then turned and walked outside.

Ye Tianming watched her leave with a smile, then his gaze fell on the two corpses in front of him.

Why did he take your heads?

Ye Tianming muttered to himself.

Late at night, in the presidential suite of the hotel.

Ye Tianming stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the night view of Hong Kong in the distance.

On the large bed behind him, Wen Jiaxi, who had been shouting "Who's no good?" during the day, was now fast asleep, muttering in his sleep.

Ye Tianming stood for a while, finished the glass of wine in his hand, then turned around, put down the glass, and went back to bed.

the next day;

Wen Jiaxi is off today.

So she wasn't in a hurry to go to work.

However, Ye Tianming did not have a day off today, so he left the hotel around 8 o'clock.

Then, at 9 o'clock sharp, I arrived at the office door of the forensic department to clock in.

"Master, your coffee!"

Ling Yaqing handed him a cup of coffee and whispered in his ear, "You didn't come home last night, and several of your older sisters are unhappy about it. You're going to be in big trouble tonight!"

After saying that, Ling Yaqing walked away with a smile on her face.

Ye Tianming shrugged helplessly, took his coffee, and went to his office.
