"Is it because of him that you came to me?" She looked a little sad. "He is actually a very good person."
The house was simply furnished, but every corner was meticulously clean, even the white curtains were spotless. Chicken soup was simmering in the kitchen, and the whole room smelled delicious.
"We want to know..." When Shan Cong was about to ask further, he was interrupted by Mu Zishan.
"Is he mysophobic?"
"Yes, I always clean the room very well. It can be seen that he is not a sociable person, but he is very nice to me." Shan Cong did not expect that she would speak so highly of him. Now he is even more confused. Could it be that the murderer is not her, but that man?
"Do you know who lives next door to you?" she asked.

"Thanks."

"If he took the knife and other things away after killing the person, wouldn't that attract other people's attention?"
Shan Cong nodded.
"Surveillance footage did not detect his presence or absence that night."
Shan Cong nodded again.
"Unless he was living in this complex that day, he left after the police started investigating."
