When Zhang Wei left the Martial Association, it was already the afternoon.
He had finished reviewing the case files and had gained some understanding of the victim, Chen Mou.
According to the investigation by the Martial Association, Chen Mou didn't have a full-time job prior to his death, but he did have a position in the black market repairing and reselling illegal phones.
The phones he sold, many of which were stolen illegally by pickpockets, he was responsible for dismantling security devices to prevent the original owners from tracking them, and he also handled the disposal of stolen goods and after-sales service.
Having learned about Chen Mou's occupation, Zhang Wei felt that his murder wasn't so unfathomable.
Those involved in illegal activities, already mired in the gray industry, are more likely to be targeted for revenge killings.
Chen Mou's death could have been accidental or premeditated.
