"Do you know what a psychopath is?"... more>>

"It’s a form of antisocial personality disorder, but it’s innate—hardwired from birth."

"Genetic anomalies cause lesions in the frontal lobe of the brain."

"The result? They lack the capacity for emotion, for empathy. No guilt, no remorse. Morality is a foreign concept to them."

"They’re masters of deception, skilled liars who can mimic human emotions flawlessly, blending into society without a trace."

"Now, here’s the real question: if such a monster were to suddenly gain a normal brain—if their missing pieces were somehow restored—would they become more dangerous, or would they finally resemble something human?"

In the shadows, a slender figure slowly crouched low, the glint of a silver blade catching the faint light. The edge pressed coldly against a throat.

"So," the voice was calm, almost clinical, "this is why you turned me into a woman?" <<less

The Meng family was in trouble.... more>>

The daughter who had been missing for eighteen years had finally returned.

But the family already had an adopted son who had taken her place.

Mother: "Even though you're back, you're still just a girl. Your brother has already inherited the family business, while you're just a small police officer. Don't even think about competing with him."

Adopted Son: "Little sister, don't overthink it. Everything that belongs to the Meng family is mine, and of course, it's yours too."

Meng Siqi glanced at the crime scene photos in her hands, her mind focused entirely on the case. Ignoring the Meng family's words, she casually responded, "The victim's pleura shows red spots, commonly known as Tardieu’s spots, indicating mechanical asphyxiation. She was strangled to death."

Meng Family: ...

–

Meng Siqi never expected that she had a special ability.

Whenever she came into contact with a crime scene, crucial clues about the mu*der would reveal themselves.

The method used to kill, the characteristics of the mu*derer, their unique habits…

It was as if the crime scene was replaying itself like a movie, giving her glimpses of the truth.

From that moment on, City A had a new legendary detective, and criminals found themselves haunted by an unstoppable force.

Police Chief: "Still can't solve the case? Go find Xiao Meng!"

Criminals clutching their heads in despair: "Stop! I confess! I’ll plead guilty! I give up!"

–

Reporter: "Officer Meng, given how limited the clues were in some cases, how were you able to find the culprit so quickly and accurately?"

Meng Siqi, with a sincere expression: "Through performance techniques in criminal psychology."

The reporter and audience chuckled fondly: "Officer Meng, you’re so playful."

Meng Siqi: "I told the truth, but you wouldn’t believe it anyway."

Others solved cases by searching for evidence and tracking down suspects.

She solved cases with the answers already laid out in front of her. When clues weren’t enough, she relied on her acting skills to bluff her way through. There was always a foolish criminal who would fall for the trap.

Detective Meng sighed helplessly: "No one understands the loneliness of being unbeatable."

Watching the news report, the Meng family was completely dumbfounded.

"Is it… too late to make amends and bring our daughter back?"

Meng Siqi smiled.

"What do you think?"

The male leads are desperate to catch the mu*derer hiding among us.

“If you suspect me so much, go ahead and search my room!”

“Why are you acting like this when you don’t even know anything about me?”

“It’s clearly different. This side is the victim, and that side is the killer.”

Anyone caught by them and revealed as the mu*derer would inevitably meet a brutal end.

“I just hope you’ll find the culprit and bring them to justice.”

“…I was planning to do that even if you hadn’t said anything.”

Fortunately, I already know who the killer is.

Because I am the very mu*derer they’re all looking for—Vivienne Lope. <<less
