Chapter 21 - Police Tricks

At a glance, Jack saw through her little trick. She was clearly bluffing. Although he didn’t know why such a little girl would use such a trick, Jack knew how to deal with it because he was a psychological master. It was clear she wasn’t really sure what she was doing.

“Huh?” Aisha frowned. It was too dark in the alley just now. She only saw the figure. She wasn’t really sure. She didn’t clearly see the face, so she didn’t pursue it any further.

‘Is it really not him? Am I mistaken? But he is really handsome! What should I do? What should I do? Ayesha, think of a way!’ Ayesha thought.

Ayesha blinked her big eyes and said, “To tell you the truth, I actually don’t have any money to take a bus home. Why don’t you send me back? The sky is too dark, and I’m afraid!”

“Little friend, I’ll give you some money. Just take a bus home. Don’t stay out so late in the future.”

Jack took out 50 dollars and stuffed it into her hands. Jack then left with a blank expression.

Meanwhile, the elites of Task Force Zero had a major breakthrough after they had collected evidence from the crime scene!

Chief Ross walked to the window of the abandoned building and looked downstairs. There was a night market just one road away, and it was very lively.

“This might not be the first crime scene!” Ross said.

“That’s impossible!”! Morrison’s body looked exactly as it did in the live broadcast. There were no signs of movement. The surroundings and burn marks in the room were also the same as what was shown in the live broadcast. Moreover, there were remnants of his body tissue on the road that he had walked on. These pieces had dried up and stuck to the ground. Unless he was killed again, it was impossible to fake the scene!”  Bowman thought out loud and analyzed the situation as a forensic scientist.

Actually, Hart, Judy, and Monica also felt that Ross’s suspicion was completely wrong.

Even Willie, who had been following Ross around since they had started investigating the case, thought so too.

Ross looked around and felt that everyone was still suspicious and not convinced by his theory. He said, “My suspicion is not unreasonable. First, there is a night market across the road. Alice and Morrison’s screams before their tongues were cut off were like pigs being slaughtered. There are so many people outside, how could they not have heard it?”

Ross shook his head and continued, “Okay. Let’s pretend that no one had heard their cries. But why was it especially quiet in the live broadcast room? It was as if there was nothing outside. How would you explain that? See? We’re standing here, and there are so many people outside, right? The sound from outside is so loud. Why was there no such thing during the live broadcast? Why was the live broadcast room so quiet?”

Willie scratched his head and said, “Then there’s only one possibility. This time, he was not broadcasting live. Instead, he could have been recording! The Death Judge’s first crime was a live broadcast. Naturally, we assumed that this second one was also a live broadcast, but it’s actually a recording. This is probably another trap!”

“Impossible! The muscles in the deepest part of the dead body were relaxed and fresh, and the body was not stiff. Moreover, the temperature in the room was still very hot, and the body was still very hot. Judging by the state of the body, it didn’t look like it had been heated a second time, so the time of death should have been around an hour prior to being found. The margin should not be more than fifteen minutes! That’s why it couldn’t have been a recording!”  Bowman argued.
