TL - Chapter 27: Tan Jiao 05 (3)

Not only that, but the investigation from the police also provided me with some very valuable intel.

First, the police believe that the perpetrator was a habitual thief; this was based on their analysis of the footprints found on the crime scene. While the outer side of his shoe sole seemed severely worn, the inner side seemed relatively well preserved. Similarly, the sole of the shoe had little wear.

For some reason, on my way to the repair shop, I kept having this feeling that I had missed something important, something I just could not put together.

The outdoor area was still packed with customers even though it was already two in the afternoon. I saw Wu Yu and his colleagues sitting inside right away and was thinking about whether I should head in. At that moment, he saw me and called out, “Tan Jiao.”
