Su Li paused in thought before answering.
"Just now, by the sewer drain in that courtyard, I saw a few long hairs. A girl's long hair."
Captain Zhang and the other officers with him were a bit baffled. "Long hair?"
"Yes. And one of them... was blond." The blond hair was what concerned Su Li.
According to the information Mr. Cook provided, his daughter, Alice, takes after her mother and has the most beautiful, waist-length blond hair.
"Blond hair?" A glint flashed in Captain Zhang's eyes.
"Yes, blond hair. And that cesspool... I have a feeling something's not right. The look on Song Shengfu's face when he answered our questions was strange. I took a closer look at the cesspool, and it just seemed too full."
"Too full?" Captain Zhang was having trouble following Su Li's train of thought.
"Right." On the way back, Su Li's mind was filled with the image of Song Shengfu answering their questions. When he'd said it was a cesspit, his expression had been indescribably odd.
