Funny when you work on a favor that particular townie gives you the first lead but when you ask "Have you heard or seen anything?" they ususally aren't much of a help. The mysterious case of the clueless whistleblower.

I tell you, they all must have been in on this one murder. Most of the alibis were the bartender, and the one guy who said he wasn't there was picked up by the cops for being drunk. I swear, they all must have been getting drunk in celebration that the assassination of the guy was about to happen.

One rule as detectives that we're supposed to follow is 'suspect the client' (especially if you're paranoid like me and don't won't to spend money on bribes if the client is going to turn out to be the murder)... expect of course when it's a townie... Riiight.

The names in Shanghai crack me up. I saw one name that was Wu wu, another that was Fen Shing, and someone else who had a last name of Ping I think.

So I came up with Wu wu fenshing ping.

It's been happening to be repeatedly, but it continues to amuse me when my client tells me it's none of my business when I ask them for their alibi and they tell me it's none of my business. Um, excuse me sir/madam, but you did just hire me to ask that question and YOU made it my business. Silly clients.

I also had a case like someone said already.
My detective fell in love with a pretty ugly suspect who finally happend to be the murderer!

mine was a very wierd case of deja vue all the suspects looked like me even the women characters very scarey.

maybe not the funniest thing ever but let me tell anyway...8 suspects, 3 with fake alibi. i did the research and found out that one was innocent. and then another of them was killed, so there was only one left. its been long time since i had last had such an easy case.

p.s. after about 10 months im back! i started playing again 3-4 days ago. for now i dont subscribe because i dont have much time but i will asap. but i found out something, i really missed Sleuth!

I don't remember if someone has mentioned this one, but my female client's Wife was murdered. And "his" two male lovers were suspects.
