So Xia Shige continued, "Investigate. First, check your house to see if you have the down jacket. If not, then check my house to see if I have the so-called sapphire ring. You can't be hiding something and not letting me check, right?"

When Lin Mai heard this, his face turned pale in an instant.

Song Xu and Song Xi were also a little panicked. They didn't expect the situation to turn out like this.

When they were discussing the plan yesterday, Lin Mai had assured them that Xia Shige didn't know that she had the same down jacket, so they came up with this plan!

Why did Xia Shige know?

This Lin Mai is too unreliable!

Now that the situation was out of control, Song Yu and Song Yu no longer dared to speak casually.

They also didn't dare to speak up to stop the police from investigating Lin Mai's home, as that would only make them seem like they had something to hide - after all, they said they didn't know Lin Mai before, so what right did they have to stop the police from investigating the suspect's home?

So, at the request of Officer Tan Zhen, the group went to Room 1602.

Lin Mai opened the door of 1602 with the key with trembling hands. She could no longer conceal her panic. Her hands were shaking and she tried several times before she successfully inserted the key into the keyhole.

As soon as the group walked into Room 1602, Wang Yifan came out to greet them with a wry smile.

Wang Yifan had just been secretly listening to the noise outside through the door. He also knew that the current situation was not good for them.

Fortunately, he had anticipated this worst-case scenario. At midnight yesterday, he had asked Lin Mai to quietly leave through the safety passage and throw away the clothes, mask, and shoe covers...

The clothes have been lost and there is no evidence. Even if the purchase records on the shopping website are found, it cannot prove anything. Lin Mai can just say that the clothes were lost a long time ago and he doesn't know who picked them up.

Just when Wang Yifan was feeling smug about his own cleverness, something he had never expected happened -

Xia Shige found the down jacket in a sack in the corner of the utility room, under a sack of old shoes!

Xia Shige excitedly took the down jacket and handed it to Officer Tan Zhen, saying with a smile, "Officer Tan! This is the jacket! Look, it's exactly the same as the one I'm wearing!"

Officer Tan Zhen looked the clothes up and down and nodded. It was indeed the same style as the one Xia Shige was wearing, exactly the same as the one in the surveillance video.

Wang Yifan stared at the scene in front of him in amazement, and felt it was unbelievable - why was it happening like this? !

Didn't Lin Mai say that she had already thrown away her clothes? !

Could it be that...

Lin Mai is lying?!

Thinking of this, Wang Yifan turned his head sharply and glared at Lin Mai fiercely - this stupid woman! She actually dared to lie to him!

Lin Mai's face was as pale as a sheet of paper, completely bloodless. Although it was the coldest time of the year, she was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

She was so nervous that she didn't even notice she had bitten her lip.

It's over. It's all over...
