Estelle’s Recap

Now that Jin Yan has all the suspects gathered under one roof he makes rounds to see if anyone is lying. He throws around a few comments about how the victim’s earring was found near the assistant manager’s door and some strands of hair were located by the manager’s room. After all that, he retires to a van outside the residence where the rest of the gang is monitoring the suspects.

In the middle of the night a take out delivery man drops by Pei Ze’s room and everyone assumes he must be the murderer, expect Jin Yan. Luckily they didn’t rush out because this was probably a test. Later that night, four different people randomly appear. Yao Yao locks on one of them and they notice him put something on the ground which projected the words “I miss you so much buddy” in red. Jin Yan and Xuan Ran run out toward the projection and it explodes.

Meanwhile, someone sends Zi Qi (aka Jin Yan’s step-sister) a text message via Jin Yan’s number asking her to meet him in five minutes. Believing the message to be from Jin Yan, she goes out to the yard immediately. The next time we see her she is unconscious while the perpetrator used her car to escape.

Jin Yan returns to the mansion and watches as Pei Ze walks away in handcuffs. He then approaches the remaining suspects to identify the real murderer.

The moment of truth is finally here! And of course the real murderer is not Pei Ze because that would have been too obvious. The real bad guy? The quiet employee, Lao Zhou, who roomed with Mai Chen! Apparently he is the top dog in the drug chain and Pei Ze is just one of his underling. How did Jin Yan figure it out? Well, Lao Zhou had claimed to be taking care of Mai Chen the entire night after the latter got drunk, but what kind of alcohol would have knocked someone out cold so quickly? Clearly someone had put sleeping pill in his drink and that was none other than Lao Zhou. In addition, there was a call to Mai Chen’s room from Wan Wei during the night, but no one picked up. If Lao Zhou was in the room like he said he was, why didn’t he answer the phone? Jin Yan concludes that during this time, Lao Zhou was actually in Wan Wei’s room. So she ran out in fear and cried for help, but none of the other suspects opened their doors. After killing her, Lao Zhou finds her suicide note and decides to fake her death as a suicide by cutting her wrist and putting a knife in her hand.

Here’s where it all breaks down though. Because it was not a premeditated murder, Lao Zhou did not have any other knives lying around so he had to use the knife he kept with him. This knife is the same knife that he was holding in a company picnic picture. Bingo!
