That night at 11:30, Zhao Yu crawled into his bed, exhausted Running around the whole day froth Both in his last life, and his new life, he never knew that investigating cases was this difficult!

Every piece of evidence, every witness, and every piece of information had to be carefully, and repeatedly confir was fruitless, he had to stubbornly push forward because the key to solving many cases was often found in unexpected evidences

After leaving the police station, Zhao Yu and Li Beni’s priet was the tenth place co to the evidence, she was the most likely suspect

Yet when the two found her, their jaws dropped because this contestant was currently pregnant, already in her third trinant for seven e ball! How could a pregnant wo be the culprit behind the Lost Hand Case?

With nowhere else to go, the two could only ask her about the piano co too clearly She said she was only eighteen-years-old, just a child All she kne to do was play piano, everything else was a blur She only remembered that the competition was very publicized Not only did the city and province level government officials coes froe's expectations were so high that the contestant’s points were very different With almost a three-hundred to four-hundred point differences, this was very rare in professional piano competitions! The competition was also very important to the contestants because those who scored at the top of the coes This was considered a shortcut to highly coveted universities!

Hearing this, Zhao Yu suddenly remembered what Shan Shan’s mother had said about how she had almost been accepted by the Capital Music Academy If she had been accepted, her life would be very different!

Zhao Yu applied the idea to himself This was his second life, and it was truly a completely different life He had made a lot of mistakes in his last life, so in this life, he would try his hardest to avoid them in order live the life he truly wanted!

Since the tenth place contestant could not be the culprit, Zhao Yu and Li Beini could only focus on other evidence According to Li Beini’s friend frohth place contestant had not returned to Qinshan City for more than a decade, and therefore could not be the culprit Once again, the investigation ca stop, since there were not any other suspects on the list

Unable to continue, the two could only split up and look for the rest of the piano contestants But due the contest being so long ago, soer in the city, some had already retired, and there were even so an entire afternoon, other than getting some information from a retired officer from the Culture and Education Bureau, there were not any other advances in the investigation

The retired officer had been a staff member at the competition, and still had soe Not only the city, but the provinces around Qinshan City were also involved The participants were all eighteen to nineteen-year-old high school seniors that were chosen from their own districts There was a total of one-hundred contestants that came to the city for the preliminaries After the preliminaries, the top ten were chosen for the finals The coh

Also, the winners matched the fierceness of the competition The top three were usually immediately recruited by the famous art schools within the country Fourth, fifth, and sixth place usually entered province level art schools As for those following the top six, it was down to luck The luckier ones entered city level art schools, while the unlucky ones were no different fro that information, Zhao Yu still felt directionless! Maybe the direction of his investigation was not wrong, but perhaps this mysterious culprit had not been in the top ten, but had been elie to get in top ten, they held a grudge, wanting to get revenge by chopping off the other contestants’ hands! If it was really like this, then Zhao Yu would have had to go through the entire contestant list Since Zhao Yu did not have the full list, how could he investigate?

After some discussion, Li Beini felt thattheir focus to the culprit’s next target On the 26th, they would secretly investigate the principal of the school, Li Xinghua If the culprit really targeted her, then ain some information

Zhao Yu could only nod There was notas if his 1800 yuan had si that investigating cases were just like this, often leading to dead ends In those cases, it was better to get a good night’s sleep Maybe he would feel ly accepted Li Beini’s advice, and finally decided to go back and rest The case had been put to rest, but his adventure had apparently continued While Zhao Yu was showering, he heard the systee, "Today’s adventure has been coratulations, an invisibility device has been obtained, please accept!"

"Holy sht!" Zhao Yu was shocked Why was his coh! Not only was it above 80, it was a lucky number! What kind of situation was this?

He quickly stopped showering, and examined the item within his mind

"Skeleton key" The system introduced the item, "One tile lock, and crack up to level fifteen electronic codes There is no evidence reht An invisible, traceless skeleton key, a! Definitely worthy of an 88 completion rate! But he was soh? He did not even finish the case, or catch the culprit What exactly was today’s adventure?

After his shower, it was already after ized, so he decided to turn on the Miracle Syste the cigarette, he prayed in his heart, "Dear systeood roll, let ram!" The system spoke, "Mountain and water, clear mountain and beautiful water, the dawn is beautiful and colorful Your luck will be at ain

This time, Zhao Yu finally wrote down the pro his phone to look it up, he still could not understand it at all He decided to just sleep it off But that night, Zhao Yu did not sleep very well His e dreams He even dreamt that he used a kitchen knife to chop off someone’s hand
