Mr. Chen fell to his death from a building after getting drunk. However, after reviewing the elevator surveillance footage, the police suspected foul play. Here are the statements from several suspects, all of whom had a motive to kill Mr. Chen. Please determine the true culprit. Mr. Wang from the 27th floor: I was drinking with Mr. Chen that night. After taking him home, we chatted for a while, and then I went home. John from the 28th floor: I just returned from a business trip tonight. I haven't left my home since I got back. Ms. Li from the 30th floor: We talk every night. Tonight, his signal was bad, so he went to the balcony. After chatting for a bit, he asked me to come find him. When I refused, he fell silent. I heard him slam the phone down, so I had to go find him. The elevator showed it was under maintenance, so I took the stairs. I knocked on his door, but he didn't answer. It seemed he was angry with me, so I had to go home. Property Manager: I'm on the night shift today. I was patrolling the building as usual. When I reached the 4th floor, the elevator was broken, but I had just checked it. After I repaired the elevator, I heard someone shouting 'Someone died!' from two different locations where objects had fallen. Investigation revealed: There were four different footprints near Mr. Chen's door within 12 hours. Along with Mr. Chen's fall, the balcony safety railing was also missing. Ms. Li frequently visited Mr. Chen's home. There was no surveillance in the fire escape; only the elevator was monitored. Elevator surveillance: 18:00 Mr. Chen went to the 30th floor, then left the building with Mr. Wang. 18:30 The elevator showed it was under maintenance, but no one was inside. 18:45 The property manager retrieved his toolbox to repair the elevator. 22:00 Mr. Chen and Mr. Wang came from the 1st floor to the 29th floor. Mr. Wang had something clutched in his hand. Mr. Wang returned from the 29th floor to the 27th floor. There seemed to be a sharp object in his pocket. 22:20: John came from the 1st floor to the 28th floor, carrying a suitcase. 22:25 The elevator showed it was under maintenance, but no one was inside. 22:40 The property manager retrieved his toolbox to repair the elevator. 22:45: The manager seemed to hear something and rushed out of the elevator. 22:50: Ms. Li returned from the 29th floor to the 30th floor.

Swordsman
HardPsychological
I am a swordsman from Jianye, currently eradicating a cult. I don't know how I came to this strange place; it must be due to the cult leader's zither music. What are these four-wheeled things speeding down the street? Oh? A few people are disrespecting me, saying I ran a red light. They must be cult members. My sword gleamed coldly, and I cut down several people. The surrounding crowd scattered. Then, several blue-clad strongmen surrounded me, looking like officers. I didn't want to make enemies with officials, so I slipped away, but unexpectedly, my lightness skill failed, and I was captured and taken to the local county office. I don't know why I am here. A few young people came to see me, crying and calling me 'Dad.' How ridiculous, I'm not much older than them, what nonsense. But the moment I looked in the mirror, I was stunned. How did I become so old? The officers took me for a medical consultation, but I know I'm not sick. Can you help me?
