The voice coming from behind attracted the attention of the people around. The speaker was a middle-aged man, his hair neatly combed, without a beard, clean in a suit, dress shirt, and leather shoes, slightly overweight, and with a puzzled expression on his face. Upon seeing the man, the waiter immediately spoke up: The middle-aged man did not wait for the waiter to finish before he saw the head chef lying in a pool of blood and cried out in grief; he instinctively rushed towards the body. However, he was stopped by Edward. “Go check room 2048.” “You will find something there.” As soon as Jason mentioned the room number, the restaurant owner, who had just been a bit smug, suddenly turned pale. “How… how do you know?” The restaurant owner questioned Jason. The people around looked on with horror, distancing themselves from the restaurant owner. The strange noise startled the restaurant owner into awareness. Looking at the people surrounding him, the restaurant owner gave a miserable smile. “I didn’t want to… who…” It seemed that he wanted to plead his hardships, but in the next moment, the restaurant owner’s miserable smile turned into a sinister grin. He charged directly at Jason. “It’s all because of you!” “You ruined my perfect plan!” “I’m going to kill you!” The angry roar quickly turned into a scream of agony. The charging restaurant owner was sent flying back even faster. He crashed heavily against a door. A set of blood-stained clothes just lay there in the room. This was none other than room 2048. The restaurant owner lay beside the bloody clothes, completely unconscious. Jason withdrew his raised foot, urging Edward on. “Change of plans, let’s eat somewhere else.” Edward was somewhat stunned. “How did you know he was the murderer?” But Jason did not respond. Instead, it was the female pastry chef who spoke: “It’s because he didn’t recognize you, Officer Edward!” “Just now, when the body was discovered and chaos ensued, you had already revealed your identity. Everybody here should know it, unless they were inside the room.” “But earlier, the waitress said that the boss hadn’t returned from going out, and even if he had come back he would have had to pass through the main hall. Based on the timing of his appearance, he should have already entered the restaurant and would have been near the hallway; therefore, he could not have failed to hear your introduction of identity.” “As for why Jason could zero in on room 2048…” “It must be because that room is the closest to here!” The female pastry chef rested her left hand’s back against her right elbow, with her thumb resting on her chin and the second joint of her index finger touching the tip of her nose while the remaining three fingers were slightly curled into a fist, analyzing seriously with a thoughtful expression. After completing her analysis, the female pastry chef smiled at Jason. But deep down he thought— “So that’s how it is.” He, who had just been eager to go to another restaurant for a meal, had not thought of any of this. The only reason he knew the other person was the murderer… This professional skill, derived from the [Tomb Guardian], allowed him to see the death qi contaminating the man from the corpse in the room – ‘Maple’. Of course, he would not explain. He found the female pastry chef’s reasoning quite sensible.
