A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 847 Refuse to Answer

When Marcel came, Easton immediately came up with a solemn look. "Chief, Alondra's move is very insidious. It may affect you!"

They did not interrogate her within 24 hours, and detained her with other reasons. They didn’t expect this girl to hit the wall to commit suicide. She was indeed a chaste martyr!

But Alondra's suicide had a bad influence on Marcel. After all, he was new to City B and he had yet to solve a case. It was bad for him that something like this happened.

But Marcel didn't care at all. He looked calm, and there was a trace of expectation and excitement in his eyes.

"No problem!" he said.

"When she was delivered just now, the director didn't know about it!" Easton said, "But now he might know!"

After all, this matter cannot be suppressed, and many departments were involved. The more people, the more talk.

What's more, many people kept their eyes on the post of criminal police captain, so there were certainly waiting to see Marcel fail. They wished to find a chance to replace him.

"Don't care!" Marcel was still so calm, staring at the door of operating room with dull eyes.

He was in deep thought. Rae could see that he was thinking hard, but what was on his mind was unknown to her!

Today, Rae can almost conclude that all the girls in their dorm should be involved in this. Piper must have a problem. Alondra had been exposed, and only Piper was left!

At this time, the door of the operating room opened, and the doctor came out to Marcel and Easton.

"The patient is temporarily out of danger. She had her head stitched seven needles..." the doctor explained.

Soon, Alondra was pushed to a separate ward. Easton arranged three policewomen to look after Alondra.

Marcel went in when Alondra was pushed to the ward. Rae and Easton went in with him.

Upon seeing Marcel, the policewomen in the room stood up and called, "Captain Hopkins!"

Marcel nodded slightly. “Give us a moment, please.”

The three went out.

Marcel looked at Alondra.

Her forehead was covered with gauze, and her eyes were fixed on Marcel and Rae, with contempt and hatred.

Marcel suddenly snorted.

Alondra seemed a little annoyed. “What are you laughing at?"

"You are young after all, and you have no determination!" Marcel sneered as if he was laughing at how stupid Alondra was as she was playing the ostrich.

Alondra said with a cold smile, "Mr. Officer, you are being unreasonable. Do you think I don’t know law because I’m a student? You arrest me with no evidence, not interrogation. What do you want? Although I'm not majoring in laws, I know a little bit about it. You put me in custody for 24 hours without

interrogation, and then you found some excuse to continue detaining me. Now you want to interrogate me in the ward, don't you? "

Marcel smiled, "Miss Webb, if we are interrogating, we need to use some instruments to record our conversation!"

Alondra looked better as she could tell that there was no recording. But her face was still pale and there was impatience in her eye. “Whatever you want to know, I don't know. If you want to interrogate me, I want a lawyer. I refuse to answer any questions if this is not interrogation!"

Marcel smiled faintly, his face devoid of any emotion.

Easton didn't move either.

Rae was clear that it was difficult to deal with such a case as she was not cooperative.

She looked at Alondra and said, "Does the injury on your head still hurt?"

"Knock it off. I refuse to answer!" Alondra said harshly, “You guys are not good people.”

"I just care about you!" Rae frowned. Did the police must be good people? They just need to enforce the law impartially. But Rae didn't answer it back. Alondra was not the same as she was that day. That day, she was a bit arrogant, but now she was so excited and prickly. It could be seen that Alondra was desperate.

Alondra said, "Don't shed crocodile tears. Who doesn't know your police's means? I won’t be fooled.”

"You..." Rae was about to speak when Marcel interrupted.

"Rae, don't care about what Miss Webb said. Go and interrogate Piper!" said Marcel in a flat tone. He turned around slowly and looked at Rae.

Rae suddenly realized the meaning of Marcel.

She subconsciously looked at Alondra.

Sure enough, she saw Alondra's face stiff, her lips trembled, but did not speak.

For a moment, it was silent.

Rae knew that Alondra must know something. Suddenly an idea occurred to her mind and she nodded her head and said, "Captain Hopkins, I didn't have time to report to you just now. Piper said something about the club. We are sorting out the confession and will give it to you later. I'll go out first now!"

Rae was betting that how much Alondra knew. She said about the club, but didn't say where it was. She didn't specifically refer to the night or the racecourse. If there was a problem, Alondra would be afraid of being found out.

Rae looked at Alondra's expression. When she said this, Alondra's face went paler. She kept silent and didn't say a word.

Rae realized that Alondra was also involved!

With a smile, Marcel looked at Rae's eyes with a touch of praise. She was really smart. If there were someone else, they would ruin his plan.

He nodded and said, “Go ahead.”

At this time, only Marcel, Easton and Alondra were left in the room.

Marcel smiled at Alondra again. Without asking any question, he said, "Miss Webb, take care. This body is your own. Before you do anything, you should think of your parents first. Even if you don't, thinking of your grandmother who brought you up!"

Alondra was stunned and pursed her lips.

This policeman was really something. He must have investigated her family and knew that she was brought up by her grandmother. He easily knew her weakness. As a young police officer, he showed no fear knowing that she had committed suicide. He didn't act normally, but he was thoughtful.

After listening to Marcel's words, Alondra slowly replied, "Mr. police officer, I just wanted to go out. Don't worry. It won't happen in the future. Besides, I ask for a lawyer!"

Marcel smile, "Alright! You can find a lawyer!"

Alondra didn't seem to expect that Marcel would be so readily to agree her. She didn't seem to believe that Marcel would be so nice. She asked uncertainly, "Really?" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Of course!" Marcel said with a smile, "Miss Webb, we are now officially informing you that we will formally interrogate you after you recovered in three days!"

Alondra was stunned.

"Easton, let the people who look after Miss Webb come in," Marcel said.

"Yes.” Easton asked the two policewomen to come in.

After waiting for people to come in, Marcel suddenly said to Alondra, "Miss Webb, Piper's two cousins asked me to greet you for them!" Marcel said as he looked at her, raising his eyebrows.

Sure enough, Alondra was flustered, but immediately she tried to calm down. After a few seconds, she said coldly, "I don't know them!"

Marcel did not speak and left with Easton.

She didn’t know them?

From Alondra's expression, she didn't look like she didn't know them!

Rae was waiting in the corridor outside the door.

Seeing them coming in a hurry, Rae came to them and said, "Captain Hopkins!"

Marcel nodded. “Easton, have someone you trusted to keep an eye on her. In addition, don't make a fuss, leaving no chance for her to collude with others. Rae, you and I go to find Shayla! We're going to solve this case in three days!"

Three days?!

Would it work out?

Rae and Easton both showed a suspected expression. How could such a complicated case be worked out in three says, now that everything was in a mess?

Although Rae and Easton look puzzled, they didn't ask anything.

Seeing their expressions, Marcel understood their doubts. He explained to them, "Alondra, Piper and Shayla all know the facts of the case. Maybe they don't know the murderer, but they must know a lot about it. But what they said was far from enough, just the tip of the iceberg. We’re not likely to get something from Piper, so we need to break through from her two sisters. In addition, Shayla has little connection with them, but she must be an insider. Now we're looking for new breakthroughs from here!"

"Yes.” Rae nodded and said, “Shayla seems to be the one who stays out of the business most at present! But Kenzie and Philippa know each other. We have to check Philippa!"

Marcel suddenly looked at Rae.

Rae immediately realized that she had said something wrong. “I know we need evidence!"

Marcel showed a satisfactory look.

"Philippa's case..." Marcel once again said, "Easton, you take someone to find Philippa's parents to learn about her situation in the recent six months! Get as much information as you can.”

"Yes.” With that, Easton left.

Rae had to go with Marcel to investigate the case.

Shayla was still living in the dormitory. She had not moved away, even though Alondra and Piper were not there.

When Rae and Marcel came, Shayla was reviewing in the dormitory. When she saw them, she didn't seem surprised.

Rae had to be surprised that the girl's performance was different every time she met.

To be exact, the girls in their dorm all performed differently every time they met, which was astonishing.

Shayla watched them enter the dormitory. Instead of getting up to greet them, she continued to sort out her books. After a while, she asked faintly, "What are you doing here?"

Marcel squinted his eyes and looked at Shayla. His eyes fell on Shayla's neck. She had a silk scarf around her. It was not cold, and she must be hiding something with the silk scarf.

Shayla raised his head, not afraid of this kind of look.

Her expression was light, and her little face was slightly flushed with indifference. And indifference in the eyes seems to reveal the light of despair!

"You seem to have expected that we would come to you again!" Marcel's tone was slow. He looked so confident. Even if he didn't sleep all night, he had the ultimate energy to face it. As long as he worked,

he would be full of energy.
