In the following days, Purple Summers focused on studying, learning, and preparing for exams.

She didn’t want to think about anything related to Alexander Summers…

Meanwhile, Marcel Jefferson was investigating the dead victim, Delilah White’s roommate.

He found out that the roommate was shooting on location in Nepal and couldn’t rush back, and moreover, the roommate was abroad during the case, so obviously they were unrelated and couldn’t be forcibly summoned back to assist in the investigation.

Marcel felt somewhat frustrated; he seemed to be unable to complete any task Purple asked him to do well…

While sighing and worrying, he held the limited evidence in his hands.

The receptionist brought him a cup of coffee and grumbled, “Boss, I don’t understand why someone who isn’t in Clearwater all year round would rent such an expensive apartment? Rent in Greenwood Town isn’t cheap, you know.”

Marcel sighed, “Who knows? Maybe they have too much money and don’t know what to do with it.”

“If they were rich, they would buy a house instead of renting. It’s not like the roommate is a famous model or anything…”

Delilah White’s roommate was also a model, like her.

Reminded by the receptionist, Marcel also began to wonder, “Indeed… why would she rent such an expensive place?”

Could there be more to this?

A thought crossed Marcel’s mind. Suddenly, he stood up and hugged the receptionist!

“Larissa! You are truly my savior! My lucky star!” Marcel wanted to give her a big kiss, “You are the Watson to my Sherlock!”

“B-boss?! The coffee… it’s spilled… ”

Marcel didn’t care about the coffee. He confidently slapped the table, “Let’s continue the investigation! Find out when she rented the apartment, the rental period, and how the rent was paid! We must get these details!”

Marcel immediately had a direction for his investigation.

Aria Jackson also had new developments.

Purple Summers had given a handkerchief to Aria, asking her to have the lab test it. Surprisingly, a cat hair was found on the handkerchief, and it appeared to be from a well-bred white chinchilla cat.

Victim Delilah White didn’t own a cat, and her roommate was rarely around, so it was even more unlikely that she would have a pet.

So, the owner of this handkerchief is likely the culprit who left it behind.

Their investigation narrowed down to all cat owners in Greenwood Town Community.

The investigation wasn’t going smoothly since keeping cats is much more concealed than keeping dogs, who often need walking and registering with the local authorities.

It would be easy to find out who had dogs in the community, but it was extremely difficult to find the cat owners! If they were to investigate house by house, they might alert the culprit, who could then relocate the pet.

With the court session for the second trial approaching, the time was tight. However, the encouraging news was that the direction of the investigation was now clear. So long as they find the white chinchilla cat, they could essentially lock down the murderer.

“But what if we never find that cat?” Marcel’s impatience grew as the date for the second trial drew near, so he called Purple Summers, “Could the killer have already sent the cat away? Should we check nearby pet boarding facilities too?” Purple Summers had just finished an exam.

She calmly replied, “Now that we have discovered new evidence, according to relevant regulations, we can apply for a forensic appraisal of this evidence. Once the court approves, they will need to reschedule for a new laboratory. The appraisal would take about two weeks. Coupled with some procedural leeway from both sides, we can stall for around two months, which should be enough time for a thorough investigation.”

“Clever!” Marcel wanted to praise her, “Then let me start preparing the application materials for the appraisal.”

“Sure.” Purple’s voice sounded lazy.

Marcel found it odd, as Purple lately seemed to have lost her enthusiasm?
