(B)
Early today, the body of a 25 - year - old man John Miller was found in West Town. The police found that John was a computer engineer. He was last seen leaving his office in East Town at about 7 p. m. yesterday. He said he was going to visit his parents.
The police believe that the murder (谋杀案) took place between 9 p. m. last night and 1 a. m. this morning. They are still working at the scene of the crime to find out whether John was killed somewhere else and then brought to West Town, or killed at the place where he was found.
“We're asking anyone who saw anything strange near West Town last night to call us,” said Officer Lu. “John was wounded with a knife and lost too much blood to death as a result.”
The police are wondering if John had any enemies. He was not married. He had many friends and a well - paid job. However, he was charged with breaking into several computer systems(系统) over the last year. He was punished because of that. Officer Lu said, “We're not sure whether this made him any enemies. We suppose that John knew his murder.”
Last night, an old woman saw a short thin man running down Corn Street at 10 p. m. The man was breathing heavily and had blood on his shirt. However, the man could not be found till now.
John's parents have offered 50,000 yuan for information about the murder. Anyone who can provide useful information should call the police.
