Paul, the town governor, was disembowelled and hung high on a flagpole in the square.
The first one to spot him was the homeless man on the left, his screams piercing the morning fog.
Detective Bofu was ordered to investigate. The deceased's interpersonal relationships were like a tight net:
——Lover Clara, who had a fierce argument with him the night before because Paul discovered that she had a new lover. Paul broke the bottle and left, and Clara cried and pulled at him, leaving torn clothes and lip prints on the collar.
——Rich businessman Kenji Miyamoto competes with Paul for mineral resources, and the town's economy is crumbling. On the night of the incident, Miyamoto was drunk, carried a shotgun and said he wanted to "find someone to settle the score", and then disappeared.
——Fireworks factory worker Tom, whose son was killed by school bullies, and the murderer went unpunished because of his relationship with Paul. Tom had hidden his hatred for Paul for a whole year. On the day of the incident, someone saw him and Paul walking towards the fireworks factory.
And Paul's wife. She cried so hard that she could barely stand and told Bofur every detail: her husband's tie, the last dinner, whether he looked back when he left. Beaufort noticed that her house was surrounded by oleanders and lilies of the valley, which were bright and full of poison. My wife graduated from medical school, and gardening is her hobby.
Everyone has a motive, everyone has an alibi.
Bofur pieced the timeline together bit by bit, only to find that all the pieces fit together perfectly.
He stood under the flagpole for the last time, looking back at his lady's closed window.
A secret about abandonment, flesh and blood, and long revenge.
Intent: Murder in the name of love and hate, the final judgment is abandonment and injustice.
