Upon hearing this, Director Hou's body slightly trembled, as if he were nailed to the spot, motionless for a long time.
His mind was flooded with various details about the case – every inference and analysis Jiang An had previously made echoed clearly word for word.
From the two bodies at the scene, to the forcibly delivered baby, and all the clues sorted out during the initial investigation...
This case was not unfamiliar to Director Hou.
He had participated in the investigation multiple times and witnessed its dormancy due to interrupted clues and its resumption following new discoveries.
Each time the case restarted, it was accompanied by a mix of hope and pressure, but never before had it been dissected so thoroughly and pointedly, reaching the core like today.
Although Jiang An suggested the suspect might have psychological or mental abnormalities, it was mostly considered a speculative direction for investigation.
