The Crucial Clue to Cracking the Case

The information provided by Mo Li earlier indicated that during the same period, Lin Miao had treated her high school classmates to a lavish meal. They all assumed that Lin's family had struck it rich in the countryside, but in reality, they were extremely poor.

Captain He speculated that the extravagant meal was likely paid for with a portion of the three thousand yuan gift money, leaving only two thousand five hundred yuan to be deposited into the bank.

However, Mo Li was now unwilling to testify, rendering her statement unusable. Despite this, Captain He was well aware that Lin Miao's bank account in the town was the crucial clue to cracking the case.

After sorting out these details, Captain He formally applied for an investigation order to scrutinize this deposit. With the assistance of bank personnel, he obtained a list of the account's transactions.
