Geez, if only the police investigating the crime scene checked the veranda...
The culprit's way of "hiding" the body is pretty bold too.
Nevertheless, I like the chapter. The ending is nice.

Not sure if the police actually would. From inside, it looks like you can see the whole veranda through the glass doors anyway. If nothing strange appeared to be there, I can see why the police thought there's no point in looking more closely.
