The Jade Rat Case

The Cat and Mouse series consists of five stories: Dragon Diagram is the first, Jade Mouse the second, Heavenly Book the third, A Second Stir in Tokyo the fourth, and Beauty the final installment. The series is complete. Of all the live-action Cat and Mouse fanfiction, this is my favorite, so I'm posting it here. Please leave your comments, everyone. Thank you! Synopsis: A tiny Jade Mouse unleashes a storm of bloodshed: thirty-seven people in Kaifeng City die in baffling circumstances! Burly brutes, elderly folk, even wailing infants, all fall to the same thin sword... Who is the killer? My friend Bai Yutang would never be a murderer! Cat, is there no such thing as a good person in your eyes?! Remember, there's someone else who can scale walls and kill in the dead of night in Kaifeng City: the Magnificent Mouse, Bai Yutang! As long as you remain a suspect, I, Zhan, cannot simply let you go! Rat, even if you're eager to protect your friend, you must still distinguish right from wrong! That sword-wielding killer is a formidable martial artist. If the culprit is someone close to you... how could I, Zhan, possibly rest easy?! The path of justice, the bonds of friendship. Who is right and who is wrong? Who can decide?! Theme:
