Xiao Yi and Xu Jing, though silent, both stopped in front of the curtain leading to the sleeping quarters, carefully observing the scene inside.
This was evidently the primary crime scene; every item could be crucial evidence in tracking down the killer, so they couldn't just barge in recklessly.
Xu Jing suddenly looked down, furrowed her brow, and said, "Someone's been in here, the floor is covered with footprints."
In the high temperatures of summer, unless it's a large pool of blood, blood usually dries completely within twenty to thirty minutes of leaving the body.
However, the footprints on the ground, aside from the dirt, clearly have faint traces of blood, indicating the deceased was discovered soon after her death.
The only consolation was that today, the sun was shining brightly and there was no rain, so those footprints weren't dirty enough to completely obscure the original marks on the ground.
