Chloe Sinclair finished washing the cup and placed it on the drying rack. As she did, she heard a notification from her system.
Chloe Sinclair immediately opened it to check.
[Host, there’s an update on the criminals’ case.]
Chloe Sinclair paused. She hadn’t expected the police to be so fast.
As soon as she opened Weibo, it was flooded with news about the criminals.
The police had made a post, but there was no mention of Chloe Sinclair’s involvement.
[Didn’t they just catch a group? Are these the remnants?]
[Serves them right. I hope they don’t let these homicidal maniacs off the hook.]
[To the person above, didn’t you read the whole thing? The evidence against these murderers is irrefutable. They killed so many people, the death penalty is a given. But suddenly, it feels like it’s not enough, considering all those tragic cases back then...]
[Yeah, one of the victims back then was my friend. After he died, his family never found the killer. His wife took their daughter and moved abroad, and his parents passed away a few years later from overwhelming grief. They didn’t just take twenty-four lives; they destroyed twenty-four families.]
[Back then, the killer even posted pictures online. Even though a special task force was formed, they still couldn’t find many useful leads. It turns out they had created fake identities early on and smuggled themselves out of the country.]
The online discussion grew more intense, but public opinion was unanimously against the criminals.
However, after the initial wave of passionate discussion, people started to think more rationally and began raising their own questions.
[Why were the details of the process so vague?]
[Yeah, the police statement was really unclear. I didn’t quite understand it. How was this group of accomplices captured? There’s no mention of what led to their arrest at all.]
[The police must have their reasons for doing this. What if it’s to protect the people involved?]
[The person above has a point. In any case, it’s a good thing. Getting rid of these menaces will make our society a bit more stable, so everyone should stop discussing this matter too much.]
