Case Two: Stab and Snap! (part 4)(Final)

Sehun and the squad have gathered at the house of the victim. Of course, it is big as they are related to some influencial family..., but that is not why Sehun and others are there.

They will reveal the murder.

After technically four days of investigation, the team decides that they have found the truth and is ready to confront the killer.

"Why are we gathering here? Shouldn't you guys suppose to catch the killer now?" Prosecutor Im complains. Sehun just smiles calmly to the man's complaint. "We will, somehow, after you all know the truth. My team, homicide detectives of 4th district, never likes only to be able to catch the murderer without knowing why. I personally always think there is never impulsive desire to kill. There is always the background. And the background is what makes every cases fascinating. It could be similliar, but they are all different, just like us humans, living in this world. We pretend that we are nice and same with what the society has expected from us, however, it could be just a mask."

"I don't see where this is going, young detective," the widow of the victim speaks, "and as like my brother said, you could just chase the criminal and bring him to the justice for the brutal murder he had done to my husband."

"Even though he is known to have cheated before his death from you, Ma'am?"

She smiles weakly, "that thing doesn't wipe the fact that he is a good father for my children." Sooyoung then stares to see the children's reaction and she can see why their deduction is the truth. She glances to Jongdae and Minho, who then come forward.

"Your husband was murdered by stabbing on his chest and it caused his death. However, the killer somehow suggested to do the neck snapping for whatever reason he could have. We had our person of interest, which is the woman that entered the crime scene along with your husband. However, we technically didn't believe such grace,young, and normal-looking woman could snap a grown man's neck in perfect condition. So we thought she was either a martial-arts practicioner or someone helped her." Jongdae explains, "the examination suggested that the murder happened between three or four a.m. in the morning. We have checked the survelliance camera matching the timeline, but we got no one entered or gotten out from the room."

"However," Minho continues, "we checked it wrong. You see, this is why people say policemen are lazy. And yes, we are that lazy to check the camera from other time frame than the medical examiner has given to us. As our medical examiner could predict such time, we just checked the time frame that is accordially to what she gave to us, which is completely wrong. We then checked more wider time frame and we found the scenario..., or at least, we deducted what the scenario would have been."

"On the day of the murder, eight o'clock at night," Sooyoung comes forward, "we caught a man coming into the hotel lobby. He was alone, but then when we checked the record, one hour earlier, a young woman came into the hotel lobby." Sooyoung then shows two photo. "Looking familiar, everyone?"

The family stares to it and they are managed to get confused.

"We searched whoever is close to the young lady's first, of course," Minho continues, "and thank God with those social media's accounts, just with instant click and we can see that between these two, there is a connection. They declared that they were couple for two weeks already in their Instragram's accounts."

"And we just encountered one fatal mistake the hotel has made," Jongdae comes in again, "there is no camera pointed really directly to the room nor the emergency door. A blind spot is made from it and we didn't catch that until some pieces are made together."

"So," Sooyoung continues, "these two somehow have figured out that the victim would come, and indeed he came; he even took the blonde lady to the crime scene. Our deduction is that they followed them using the blind spot, they could enter the crime scene without being recorded."
