"That's not necessarily true. Maybe our Third Young Master Carter really is the King of Detectives, 'Scott White'. He could solve a shocking massacre with just a single hair." Eric Harris chimed in with another joke.

"Here you go, Useless Carter. If you can really catch the pervert with just this torn pair of shorts, I, Charles Thompson, will admit I've been 'cuckolded.' Otherwise, you break both your legs and crawl like a dog up and down the main street of our Tianyang County three times." Charles Thompson tossed half a pair of shorts from his pocket toward William Carter, then pulled in Lord Miller, saying, "What do you think, Lord Miller?"

"You are both outstanding young men, pillars of Tianyang County. Since you both have the will, I'll be the witness." Lord Miller was also quite annoyed with William Carter. Since this matter would benefit him and do him no harm, if it succeeded, his own big issue would be resolved.

If it failed, the one breaking his legs would be this troublemaker, and he'd be happy to see dogs fight.

So, he also took out the bellyband and tossed it to William Carter, saying, "Take it. My 'White Bone Jade-Breaking Ointment' will be waiting for you when you bring back the culprit's head."

"Third Young Master Carter, I, Chunqiang, will follow your lead." Eric Harris cupped his hands decisively.

"Alright, I'll fully cooperate." Head Constable Brooks also stated.

"All you Li family members, listen up. Just because I have a bet with William Carter doesn't mean you can slack off. Anyone who dares to be lazy, my Blood-Breaking Sword is not just for show." Charles Thompson raised his sword domineeringly.

With everyone working together, William Carter was instantly pushed into the spotlight.

Naturally, cousins like Andrew Carter and Philip Carter and other The Carter Family clan members were so angry their faces turned black.

Third brother, you're really courting death this time.

As for the others, most were just waiting to watch the show. Besides, they didn't believe William Carter could solve the case at all.

"Head Constable Brooks, have you found out anything about the two women who were just raped and murdered?" William Carter asked in an official tone.

Pah! Does he really think he's the King of Detectives...

"Just got the report. Both women lived in 'Tang Family Alley.'" Head Constable Brooks nodded.

"Let's go! Take a look." William Carter said, and the group headed straight for Tang Family Alley.

"That's Megan Hill's house. This woman was already married, had two kids, and just happened to come back to visit her family. Who would've thought she'd end up dead?" A constable pointed at the weathered door.

From afar, they could already hear the mournful cries.

As soon as Head Constable Brooks and the others arrived, an old woman rushed over, fell to her knees, and clung to Head Constable Brooks's leg, wailing, "Head Constable Brooks, you must avenge my daughter! That damned murderer, may he die without descendants!"

They entered the bedroom. Head Constable Brooks lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and immediately his eyes widened in anger, murderous intent surging as he cursed, "Beast!"

A beautiful woman lay naked and covered in blood on the wooden bed.

What was even more infuriating was that the lower part of her body...

"Sigh... Again, the bastard really is something." The coroner, Alice Foster, said after examining the body.

"Is his really that big? Even if it is, could he really have ravaged the woman so badly? Megan Hill already had two kids, she's not a virgin." In his previous life, William Carter was an ace in the Dragon Group, handling only the most shocking cases and killing the worst criminals.

Naturally, he was very experienced.

Of course, people in ancient times didn't care about such things. If you tried to explain scientific facts like the uterus opening during childbirth or bones shifting, they wouldn't understand.

"Who knows? There are all kinds of strange people and things in the world. People come in all shapes and sizes—can you say those dwarfs only a foot tall aren't human? So, someone born with a huge one is possible. Otherwise, how could he be called a pervert?" Charles Thompson showed off his knowledge again.

"If it wasn't caused by that thing, then what does Young Master Carter think caused the injury?" Head Constable Brooks actually nodded, ignoring Charles Thompson, agreeing with William Carter's view.

"Brother Li has a point. For example, those who practice evil arts can infuse their inner energy into it.

With enough skill, they could easily do it.

Doing this is nothing—killing someone outright wouldn't be a big deal either." Eric Harris said.

"Are you blind? Look carefully, there's no way a man's thing could have caused this injury." William Carter suddenly pointed at the woman's lower body, his face changing.

Knowing this guy saw Head Constable Brooks siding with him, he immediately jumped in to help Charles Thompson.

So, he had to strike back mercilessly, to show him why the flowers are so red.

"William Carter, what are you trying to do?" Eric Harris was suddenly scolded, and angrily drew his Zhan Yue Blade, the blade faintly glowing with bloodlust.

"Heh, Brother Zhao, he's saying you can't see straight." This gave Charles Thompson the perfect chance to fan the flames.

"You two, look carefully. If the woman had really been violated by a pervert, how could there not be any residual fluid?" William Carter pointed at Zhao and Li, looking disdainful.

"What a joke! Would a pervert really spare Megan Hill?" Charles Thompson laughed loudly.

Buzz—Eric Harris's Zhan Yue Blade swayed in the air, stirring up the atmosphere with an intimidating presence.
