Chapter 1113: Chapter 1113: Arrangent_1
The Black Rose case had been putting a lot of pressure on the Kingsley Police Departnt.
The police force was limited, yet the killer could send roses indefinitely.
The more people that needed protection, the more officers that were required to be deployed, which ant the departnt had to reallocate personnel from other divisions.
However, Kingsley City was not dealing with just this one case; if all the police focus were on the Black Rose case, it would affect the normal operations of the judicial institution.
Eventually, the decision was to gather the won who had received roses in one hotel, where just a few officers could take turns on duty, guarding the hallways and elevators, to ensure maximum security.
This thod seed foolproof on the surface, but it was not easy to implent in reality.
Firstly, not every woman who received a rose was willing to move in, as it was akin to a form of detention that no one could stand for a prolonged period.
Secondly, the duration of protection was an issue. One week? One month? Half a year? If the killer did not act, should the police keep guarding indefinitely?
The police departnt had thought about using female officers disguised as the rose recipients to wander the streets in waiting, but the killer never showed up.
The prosecutor had also considered using Purple Sumrs as bait, but it was tough to get approval from the higher-ups, given Purple Sumrs’ distinct status and her pregnancy. Should anything go wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Now that Purple Sumrs had volunteered to cooperate, it was nothing but great news for the police.
Purple Sumrs followed the prosecutor and moved into the hotel.
The hotel had five floors in total. The bottom four operated as usual, but the top floor was controlled by the police. As soon as the elevator doors opened, one could see two officers positioned to the left and right and another on the watch by the window.
As Purple Sumrs walked down the corridor, the doors of the rooms were all open. The girls gathered inside, talking softly. When they heard footsteps, they turned their heads. On seeing Purple Sumrs, they all showed a look of astonishnt.
Purple Sumrs frowned slightly but continued forward in silence.
Yet in her heart, terrifying waves churned!
…What was going on?
Those won, why did they all seem to bear so resemblance to her? So had similar eyes, so hair, and so figures…
This feeling was hair-raising, sending shivers down her spine.
She turned to the prosecutor beside her and questioned, “Do you all know?”
The prosecutor nodded apologetically, “Mr. President requested the news be sealed.”
Indeed, the killer’s targets all looked similar to the president’s daughter. If this got out, who knew what kind of dia storm it would stir up…
Purple Sumrs, suppressing her alarm, reached her own room.
It was located at the end of the hallway. As she pushed open the door and scanned the room, it looked no different from the others, a standard room with two beds, but the furnishings were more luxurious than in other rooms, which seed normal considering the occupant was the president’s daughter.
“There’s an infrared alarm at the door,” the prosecutor showed Purple Sumrs the switch and pointed above, “If soone breaks in, it will trigger the alarm, and the chanism up there will activate imdiately.”
Purple Sumrs looked up to see a square tal cage hanging above the door. Such an installation clearly wasn’t from the police station, but she had seen sothing similar in the vaults of casinos.
“What if they avoid it?” asked Purple Sumrs.
“When the alarm is triggered, shots will be fired continuously from the front, left, and right towards this spot. The chances of avoiding it are less than 0.1%,” explained the prosecutor.
The prosecutor pointed out, and only then did Purple Sumrs notice the gun-like chanisms hidden in three directions. She exclaid in surprise, “What if there’s a misfire?”
What if the person entering the room wasn’t the criminal?
“It’s a tranquilizer gun, it won’t cause harm to the human body,” the prosecutor said, stepping aside to lead her inside, “Your accommodations are this way…”
A wall with a brand-new, luxurious TV setup, which appeared decorative at first glance, slid open automatically when pushed along the edge, revealing a special room inside.
