The two detectives watch in complete disbelief as the hooded man heads into the elevator with the resident who opened the door for him. They seem to interact at one point, but they can't tell what is going on because there is no audio.
The resident gets off at the third floor while the man gets off at the sixth. At this point, Chantelle can feel her stomach drop. She knows exactly what he's about to do.
Just as she thought, the hooded figure approaches the door of the Jeon's apartment. He easily picks the lock, letting himself in and closing the door behind him.
"Shit." She hisses, wishing so badly that there was a camera inside of the apartment. Then they would get that motherfucker for sure.
12:13 am. She notes what time the man enters the apartment before telling Mr. Sanders to fast forward the tape.
12:27 am. That's when the man slips back out the door, shoving an item into the black backpack he carried with him on his back. Fourteen minutes, that's all it took for him to brutally stab Mr. Jeon to death.
"Rewind that and zoom in on the backpack." Taehyung demands.
Upon doing so, they are able to make out the gleam of a knife. The serrated blade is still covered in blood as he shoves it into the bag.
"Well, that's why we can't find a fucking murder weapon.." Chantelle grumbles. She wouldn't be surprised if he used the same one to murder Mrs. Jeon as well.
Now that they know exactly who killed Mr. Jeon, they need to find him. But Chantelle has a feeling that won't be an easy task, especially since he has managed to keep his face hidden from every camera in the building.
This man has definitely done this before, he knows how to hide his identity and not get caught.
There is one person who saw him for sure, though..
"Can you rewind and show us where that other man went? The one who was in the elevator with him?" She asks. Mr. Sanders nods, rewinding the tape and going to the camera on the third floor hallway. The man who was in the elevator with the hooded man goes to apartment 3B, unlocking the door and going in. Bingo.
"Thank you so much for your help, Mr. Sanders. If you could send this footage to me, I would greatly appreciate it." She hands him a business card from her pocket, which contains her phone number and her work email.
"Let's go." She looks at Taehyung, nudging her head towards the door.
"Do you think that guy knows him or he was just being polite?" He asks as he follows her out of the small room.
"I have no idea." She sighs, pressing the up button on the elevator. "But if he does know him, our killer might have an accomplice."
When they step in, she presses the button to the third floor. Hopefully the resident of apartment 3B is home and can answer their burning questions.
