194: Chapter 194 Murder Case

"Dog Streamer is playing dirty! We agreed to stay single together, but you went and got engaged behind our backs!"

"Dog Streamer and I are now irreconcilable enemies!"

"Sigh~ Why does it feel like the pig I raised was kidnapped by a cabbage?"

"Person upstairs, for some reason, I have that feeling too..."

"Dog Streamer, it's one thing to get engaged, but why is your fiancé a woman? Don't you know how long I've been waiting for you? You didn't even look back at me!"

"Get lost, you damn gay guy upstairs! Brother Mo's sexual orientation is normal! He's not interested in men, and even if he were, it wouldn't be your turn! Because I'd snatch him away first!"

"You have the nerve to talk about me! Have some damn shame, will you?"

...

Looking at the bullet chat in the stream, Qin Mo's lips twitched violently.

Damn bunch of gay guys, thinking about me all day long! Do I really look like the type who attracts men?

...

"Ahhh!!!!"

Just then, a scream rang out.

The scene immediately fell silent.

Then, a foreign man was seen lying in a pool of blood with a dagger plunged into his chest; by the looks of it, he was as dead as could be.

*Boom!*

The scene instantly broke into an uproar, and everyone's faces turned pale.

"What happened?"

Qin Hua walked up and roared.

Today was his son's engagement banquet; for something like this to happen, wasn't it a slap in the face to the Qin Family?

At this moment, nearby security personnel quickly surrounded the area and moved to protect everyone.

The guests at the scene, faces pale, moved away from the corpse.

Qin Mo walked up expressionlessly and spoke to Qin Hua:

"Dad, who is the deceased?"

Qin Hua frowned and said, "This person is one of the wealthiest men in Japan. He came here today to celebrate with you."

Qin Mo furrowed his brows upon hearing this.

It seemed this person was killed with a single blow, and the culprit was likely among this crowd.

Thinking of this, Qin Mo's eyes swept across the crowd like shuttles.

This matter had to be handled properly, otherwise, it would have a huge impact on the Qin Family; after all, this was a Qin Family gathering.

Now that someone was dead, the Qin Family was the most suspicious!

"Moer, what do you think?"

Qin Hua, standing aside, asked.

Qin Mo pondered for a moment and slowly spoke: "I suspect this culprit isn't necessarily an enemy of the deceased, but more likely an enemy of our Qin Family."

"A murder occurring at the Qin Family's event has the greatest impact on us!"

Qin Hua nodded; Qin Mo's guess was basically consistent with his own.

But he couldn't guess who it was either; after all, the Qin Family was large and powerful, with countless enemies in the shadows.

Qin Mo felt a bit frustrated. If he had known, he wouldn't have used his Fortune-telling so much. This month's three chances were already used up, otherwise, he wouldn't have to go through all this trouble.

With a quick calculation, he could have found the killer, but now it seemed he had to use his Detective Skills.

Before long, a group of Uncles in Hats finally arrived. Since such an incident happened to the Qin Family, the police naturally took it seriously.

"Qin Mo..."

Murong Lanlan walked over from the side, her face full of worry.

Qin Mo patted her shoulder and comforted her, "It's fine."

Saying so, Qin Mo began to examine the corpse.

The fatal wound was clear, blood was still flowing, and since there were many people around him at the time, the killer was likely one of them.

Subsequently, the police gathered several men who might have committed the crime.

There were five people: two women and three men. One of them was even from the Qin Family, albeit from a collateral branch.

"Speak up! What were you all doing when the victim died?"

Qin Mo looked directly at them and said expressionlessly.

"This... this has nothing to do with us! We were chatting at the time, we didn't even know when he died!"

One of the women said with a terrified expression.

Qin Mo nodded calmly and then looked at the two women.

"What do you usually do for work?"

The two women were stunned for a moment and said, "We don't usually need to work; we just occasionally help the family manage some business."

"Then do you have any hobbies?"

"Usually... just walking the dog, going out to eat, things like that..."

"Any sports hobbies? Like running or fitness training?"

"No... no..."

The two women were completely confused. The questions Qin Mo was asking didn't seem to have much to do with this murder, did they?

Qin Mo was silent for a moment, then looked at the two of them. "Alright, this matter has nothing to do with you. You may leave."

"Huh?"

As soon as he said this, not only the two women but even the surrounding crowd was bewildered.

"What?"

Just like that? They're allowed to leave? He barely asked anything!

Seeing the confused looks on everyone's faces, Qin Mo smiled slightly and said, "Based on the wound on the victim, the force used by the culprit was not something a girl could achieve. The reason I asked those questions just now was to determine if they had a habit of fitness training."

"Because people who work out are stronger than those who don't, and this was to rule out suspects."

"So that's why!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present came to a realization and looked at Qin Mo with admiration.

As expected of a descendant of the Qin Family, to be able to come up with such a method.

"Qin... Qin Mo, I'm your cousin! This definitely wasn't me!"

Just then, one of the men spoke up.

Qin Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.

This man was indeed a collateral descendant of the Qin Family, and if he remembered correctly, he should be from his paternal aunt's side?

Thinking of this, Qin Mo's gaze toward the man became full of deep meaning.

"Cousin, where were you when the victim was killed? Did you see who killed him?"

"This... when that person died, I remember the scene was in chaos, I don't know either!"

"Oh?"

Qin Mo frowned slightly.

"But how come I remember that when the victim was killed, the scene was silent for a long time before the chaos broke out? Did you misremember?"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, a trace of panic clearly appeared on the man's face. "Maybe I misremembered... there were so many people around, it's only natural that I saw it wrong..."

"Hehe..."

Qin Mo gave a cold laugh.

"Cousin, what are you panicking for? I didn't say you were the culprit."

"Who... who's panicking? Could it be that you suspect me of being the killer, Cousin?"

Qin Mo shrugged and said somewhat innocently, "Cousin, don't misunderstand. I'm not suspecting you, but everyone here is a suspect. I can't exclude you just because you're my cousin."

"So I hope you can understand!"
