Chapter 141: Scene Reappears! Buying 3D simulation props!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

It can be said that there were many doubts surrounding Yue Fan and Tang Jiajia.

Their interactions should have been limited to the missing Tang Xin. However, the fact that they didn’t meet in person but had financial transactions raised many suspicions.

But now, all they could do was suspect, as they had to slowly search for clues.

Su Xuan knew that in cases like these, having a suspect and then figuring out the details was the most challenging part.

These days at the criminal investigation department, he was almost always immersed in case files, yet he couldn’t find any leads.

As the deadline of one month drew closer, Su Xuan couldn’t help feeling anxious. When that one month passed, Tang Jiajia would have a chance to leave Xiangcheng City, making it much harder to apprehend her.

At night, the floors of the criminal investigation department were brightly lit.

For the sake of the case, they practically lived at the office and hadn’t gone home.

Su Xuan, who was on temporary assignment, was supposed to stay in the dormitory and had no intention of going back.

“The sooner I finish, the sooner I can go back!”

At this moment, two figures, covered in dust, suddenly appeared in the office.

“Team Leader, we’ve found it!”

“These are the original case files!”

“Take a look! The details about Tang Xin’s disappearance are clearer in these files than what we knew…”

“These are photos of the room from when Tang Xin disappeared…”

Before they could finish speaking, Tian Yuan, who had been staying up all night and relied on coffee for energy, rushed over.

He eagerly exclaimed, “Quick!”

“Show me the photos!”

“This case is definitely connected to Tang Jiajia and Yue Fan!”

“The link between them is related to Tang Xin!”

In the past few days, whether it was Tian Yuan or Su Xuan, they were mostly focused on investigating Tang Jiajia and Yue Fan.

However, no matter how they investigated, the key points between these two individuals were fixed on three aspects.

One was Tang Xin, who had gone missing initially.

The second was the money Tang Jiajia used for renting a place and her daily expenses.

In theory, as Tang Xin’s sisters and her ex-boyfriend, they shouldn’t have had much interaction. Of course, it couldn’t be ruled out that they had a strong emotional connection. But everyone felt that their relationship seemed extraordinary.

Now that the colleagues who had gone to investigate in Hunan had returned, everyone quickly gathered the information. Su Xuan was among them.

He didn’t look at the case files but got copies of the photos. For Su Xuan, photographic evidence was often more crucial than case files.

Tian Yuan, noticing this, called out, “Su Xuan, aren’t you going to check the case files?”

“You guys go ahead and check them. I’ll take a look at these photos.”

Hearing this, Tian Yuan frowned. He didn’t believe that the police in Hunan wouldn’t do their job properly, and he preferred checking the case files first. This was just a small detail in their different working styles, which both of them didn’t pay much attention to.

Su Xuan laid out all the photos on the table before him, trying to recreate the scene using his three-dimensional thinking.

Wait, recreate the scene?

He closed his eyes, and his consciousness entered the system.

He vaguely remembered seeing scene reconstruction props in the system’s shop before.

Quickly searching through the system’s shop on his own wouldn’t be fruitful, so Su Xuan directly used the search function.

As expected, a list of products appeared, including several scene reconstruction props, with various price ranges.

Su Xuan glanced at the points column.

Perfect.

Why bother with the budget option? He directly placed an order for a medium-priced scene reconstruction prop.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on the successful purchase of the “3D Simulation” prop. 2222 points deducted!]

The system’s voice sounded in his ears.

As Su Xuan listened to the series of twos, he couldn’t help but feel like the system was calling him “stupid.” But regardless of the two thousand plus points he had spent, the item was indeed impressive.

When Su Xuan looked back at the photos, he noticed that each one had a set of identical data charts that could be transformed into 3D models!

Wow!

Well worth those two thousand-plus points.

It was incredibly useful!

Su Xuan tentatively used his consciousness to piece together the data charts in mid-air, forming a three-dimensional miniature room.

But that wasn’t all.

Su Xuan even felt that he could freely manipulate this set of data charts. He could zoom in and out without any limitations. Moreover, it didn’t interfere with his normal life.

One of his main concerns when investigating cases from many years ago was the inability to recreate the crime scene accurately. With time passing, even with photographs, it was impossible to fully reconstruct the original scene.

However, now, Su Xuan could immerse himself in this space just like the investigators who had been at the scene, observing the exact same environment!

He even…

Su Xuan sniffed the air. “Who’s been using perfume in this room?”

He spoke up.

The others, who had been busy and worried about Su Xuan’s well-being, suddenly looked up with concerned expressions.

“Su Xuan, maybe you should go get some rest? You seem to be having hallucinations…”

“Yeah, resting would be a good idea.”

“We can’t have you collapsing, and it wouldn’t be good to explain to Captain Mai.”

At this moment, the members of the Criminal Investigation Unit no longer questioned why Su Xuan had the qualifications to work with them. They realized that Su Xuan was incredibly dedicated.

As criminal investigators, working for two or three days without sleep was common for them. But Su Xuan had been enduring this with them for quite some time, and now, seeing his current state, they began to worry.

Wow!

He’s even starting to hallucinate…

Maybe he should take a break!

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Xuan knew that the scent in the room wasn’t coming from the office.

So…

Su Xuan suddenly turned his gaze towards a corner in mid-air…

As the days passed and the time drew nearer, tension among the officers working on Tang Jiajia’s case was palpable.

Tian Yuan and Zhou Tiantian had nearly memorized the entire case file.

Yet, they still couldn’t find a single clue about Tang Xin!

It was as if Tang Xin had genuinely vanished into thin air within that sealed room.

“Oh!”

“I’m going crazy!”

“Could it be that we’ve misunderstood Tang Jiajia? Is it possible that she just happened to know Yue Fan, and we’ve been heading in the wrong direction?”

Their suspicions of Tang Jiajia in the beginning had been purely accidental.

Initially, based on their investigation, Tang Jiajia seemed like nothing more than a petty thief from the Xiangxi area. She had only come here because Xiangxi had become too dangerous for her.

However, upon closer inspection, it seemed like there was something amiss with Tang Jiajia.

But now, based on their current investigation, could it be that they had misunderstood her all along?

But they believed in their instincts!

There had to be something off about Tang Jiajia!

“Take a look at this!”

“Use a magnifying glass!”

“Do we have an electronic version of this photo? It would be much more convenient to view it on a computer…”

Just then, a voice broke the silence.

Simultaneously, a photograph was placed in front of them, and slender fingers pointed to a specific spot.

Su Xuan’s expression turned serious.

“Look at this corner…”

“Doesn’t it resemble a report?”
