Chapter 669: 221: Peeling silk from the cocoon, key evidence! _3
“Mm-hmm.” Afra Gracen continued, “Thankfully, I wasn’t ho that day, or the killer would have definitely killed too!”
“What ti did you leave the house yesterday?” Viola Thompson asked.
“It was probably around 10 o’clock in the morning, I didn’t really pay attention to the exact ti.”
Viola’s red lips parted slightly, “When you left, was Sophie Cooper at ho? Was there any conflict between her and Jas?”
“She seed to be at ho,” Afra Gracen sank into her mories, “When I left, I heard her on the phone with soone, discussing what to eat for lunch. Anyway, when I left, there was nothing unusual between them, but I don’t know what happened after I was gone!”
Hearing this, Viola slightly furrowed her brow.
Why did Sylvia Thompson call Afra Gracen just before she left?
Could it be understood that she deliberately let Afra hear these words?
Thirty minutes later, Afra Gracen ca out of the interrogation room. She was very nervous, “Young comrade, I’ve answered your questions seriously. You, your police station shouldn’t dig into my life deeply, should it?”
Viola Thompson had a calm expression, “Keep your phone available after you go back ho. Don’t leave Capital City randomly, and we will contact you at any ti.”
“Okay.” Afra Gracen nodded, “Young comrade, don’t worry, I will fully cooperate with your work! Can, can I go now?”
“Go ahead.”
Upon hearing Viola’s words, Afra felt a great weight lifted from her shoulders and hurriedly turned to leave.
Watching Afra’s receding figure, Ling walked to Viola’s side, “Miss Thompson, here is Afra Gracen’s personal information, have a look.”
Viola took Afra Gracen’s personal information from Ling.
After carefully reviewing it, Viola said, “Officer Kim, I’d like to see Jas’s body.”
“All right.” Ling nodded, “Please, co with .”
Jas’s body was currently in the forensic autopsy room.
Although it was sumr…
The forensic departnt was still quite chilling.
Ling led Viola over, “Captain, this is Miss Thompson.”
And then explained, “This is the sa Miss Thompson who helped decipher the video last ti.”
The Captain was an experienced forensic examiner with a kindly face. He had been in charge of Olivia Cooper’s case previously and had initially thought Jas was the murderer, never expecting such a big twist later on.
Therefore…
Viola had beco sowhat of a legend in the departnt.
After all, the video she decoded was a problem even their technical departnt couldn’t solve. At that ti, they were about to send the watch back to the original factory for handling.
Fortunately, Viola appeared.
But, why did Ling bring Viola to the forensic departnt today?
As a young girl…
Wasn’t she afraid of bad luck?
The forensic departnt was filled with bodies, mostly those of people who died mysterious deaths, so typically only those related to the case would visit.
“Miss Thompson, nice to et you! I’ve heard a lot about you!” The Captain took off his gloves and shook hands with Viola.
He dealt with dead bodies on a daily basis, so it would be impolite to shake hands with gloves on.
Viola reached out and shook hands with the Captain, her expression calm, “You’re too kind, Captain.”
At this ti, Ling spoke up, “Captain, Miss Thompson would like to see Jas’s body. Is it convenient now?”
Hearing that, the Captain’s eyes widened, seemingly surprised that Viola wanted to see the corpse.
Are the young girls of today really this bold?
“See the body?” The Captain asked uncertainly.
“Yes.” Ling nodded.
The Captain looked at Viola, “As long as Miss Thompson isn’t scared, we can do it at any ti.”
“Please lead the way, Captain.”
The Captain continued, “Miss Thompson, Jas has more than twenty wounds all over his body, his face is hideous, and his appearance may not be as peaceful as you imagine, even frightening. Are you sure you’re ntally prepared?”
After all, even with her exceptional computer skills, Viola was still just a teenage girl.
Not to ntion a teenage girl!
Many grown n would be afraid to look directly at the deceased!
Especially victims of grueso homicide cases.
Having worked in the forensic departnt for years, the Captain had witnessed many family mbers of the deceased pass out after seeing the remains of their loved ones.
“Yes.” Viola nodded faintly, “Don’t worry.”
The Captain led the way up front.
Because of the strong air conditioning inside, as soon as the door of the autopsy room was opened, a gust of cold air blew in, carrying a faint strange sll.
After all, the autopsy room was where bodies were stored year-round, and with no ventilation, over ti it had developed a distinct odor of decay.
The Captain, accustod to dealing with corpses, had long beco immune to the sll. But for Viola and Ling, the odor was still quite pungent, even through thick masks.
