One day later, more than thirty hours after the murder occurred, the case was directly archived and no longer pursued. Under such circumstances, it's difficult for ordinary people to catch the murderer unless they happen to be near the scene.
Of course, this isn't a big deal for players. However, considering identity restrictions, they might be subject to an investigation by the Supervision Department afterward. This means that even if they catch someone, it's unlikely to be considered a successful resolution of the case, and once their identity is exposed, they might face pursuit from Eastern District players, making it very difficult to complete the mission with the chosen identity.
