The room before Kieran was very tidy. Except for the blood stain on the floor, it looked nothing like a crime scene.

"This can't be the crime scene. It's too tidy, and the neighbours heard no screaming or fighting."

That was the theory Kieran came up with after he inspected the place.

Then he started to search carefully for proof to support it.

"The wounds were all over Muntle’s body. In order to create such wounds, the killer must have been circling Muntle and torturing him. Muntle would surely have tried to evade the knife. He would not have just sat there and taken it. Considering the arrangement of the house, it wouldn’t be possible to do that!"

Kieran observed the arrangement of the living room and confirmed his theory.

Muntle’s house was enough for a single person to live in comfortably. There might even be room for another person, but it wasn't big enough for both the killer and the victim to struggle across the room. It certainly wouldn't have been this tidy if they had.
