Chapter 55: Death Threats (continued)
In fact, the accident is also very simple, the police quickly investigated clearly, the driver said the truth, the reason is that the billboard on the side of the road suddenly collapsed, the driver was in a hurry to dodge, the steering wheel hit a little fiercely, so out of the motor vehicle driving route, towards the passing Rebecca, as for the problem of the billboard, whether it is a break or a fixed connection, no human factors were found, according to the investigators, in disrepair, suffered from wind and rain and natural breakage.

So the final conclusion is: unexpected!
But can James believe it was an accident? Since last night, this is already the third accident against Rebecca, and it is also too coincidental, the coincidence is incredible. Breaking into people's houses at night, throwing objects in the air, and having an accidental car accident, Rebecca is so unlucky, even Satan doesn't have the ability to create an incident against the same person.
Of course, this does not mean that the driver who caused the accident is not responsible, because he is fully capable of avoiding the accident, mainly because he did not rest well the day before, and squinted for a while on the way to drive, whether it was an accident or not, he will inevitably be taken back to talk, which is responsible for the safety of citizens' lives and property, and is also responsible for every driver who drives a vehicle.
Many people know that a person's death, or a mild disability, is not covered by one person, this is a family, or the misfortune of several families, so James and George solemnly warned him when the driver got into the police car: "Drive carefully, happy life!" ”
Because Rebecca was not injured, but only frightened, so after a brief inquiry, the person in charge of the accident agreed that James and George took her away, plus she also needed to relieve her mood, and the police station was obviously not suitable, so under George's misunderstanding, Rebecca and James left the scene of the car accident noisily.
"Squeak!"
James's Dodge car stopped quickly, and Rebecca swooped forward because of inertia, but fortunately there was a seat belt, so she didn't break through the windshield and fly out of the car, but as a girl, as a passenger, she couldn't understand her dissatisfaction with the driver's sudden braking behavior, no matter how unintentional or good: "You can't drive!" Aren't you an old driver? That's the technology for driving? It's not as good as me as a female driver, and I have strong doubts about your character and skills! ……”
Rebecca didn't show signs of finishing, I don't know if it was because of the fright, James felt that she had a tendency to talk now, one thing was endless, and it was mostly innocuous nonsense, so he interrupted her and said, "Stop! You should be much better now, why don't you stop talking like this! Maybe he was very serious, and after listening to it, the other party first kept his mouth slightly open, which was the reason for forcibly stopping and continuing, and then suddenly covered his face with both hands, but he didn't make a sound, so as a person who was observing, he didn't know what kind of expression Rebecca had under his hand.
But you don't have to think about it to know that a person may be slow to react, and only express his true emotions after the fact, or he may be suppressing it from the beginning, and then a small plot or thing will have a chain reaction to vent problems and emotions, and in James's mind, Rebecca belongs to the latter.
The silent crying is not a sign of sadness, but extremely afraid, indeed, Rebecca has grown up, whether it is the living environment or the ability to learn, it is impeccable, it can be said that it has always been a good situation, if you have to say anything bad, it is after wearing braces, then a little loss of the opposite sex, but she doesn't care about these, so this can't be said to be adversity.
"If you want to cry, cry out, I'm not a loudspeaker, I won't tell anyone else, and I don't know your friends!" James said comfortingly, gently patting Rebecca on the back as he spoke.
Maybe James's words worked, or maybe Rebecca figured it out on her own, and she quickly put down her hand, but turned her head to the window opposite James, probably not wanting people to see her current expression, or embarrassed appearance. James didn't want to see it either, so he continued: "It's okay, it's all speculation, I think it may really be an accident, you see those colleagues just said that!" ”
"Yes!" Rebecca replied very briefly, and her soft tone was not very smooth, but according to the meaning, this was to agree with James's words, although she didn't necessarily think so in her heart, but at least it was quiet now, so James also said in a soft tone: "Let's go home!" ”
"You're not going to want me to call you Detective James, or psychiatrist, are you!?" Rebecca returned to her old mood, and she could make fun of James, although she didn't know if it was appropriate to say this at this time, but what did it matter, she was a woman, or the landlord of the other party, and she had to be pampered.
Of course, James also cooperated with Rebecca, got out of the car quickly, trotted to the door where the other party got off, and after opening, he blocked one of his hands at the top of the door frame, as if Rebecca would really accidentally hit her head, and asked her to get out of the car in a very subordinate manner: "Dear Rebecca. Miss Hathaway, I am glad that you are in the despicable car, and I am honored to be with you, and now please get out of the car carefully, and I will take you to your warm and sweet home for a good rest! ”
"Since Mr. Zhou is so polite, I might as well be respectful, please lead me to the warm and sweet home you said!" Rebecca smiled, the previous gloom was gone, and a queen's expression waited for James to lead her out of the car by the hand.
"We're here to help!" James also smiled in return, raised one hand, standard gentlemanly etiquette to treat the person in front of him, but the fly in the ointment is only his uniform, if it is a high-end Italian suit three-piece suit, it is perfect, some people may say, Rebecca is not wearing a dress, there is no need for this, but can you treat a woman her ugly? This is a question that normal people know, so I won't explain much.
After Rebecca got out of the car, the two of them were a talented man and a woman (braces did not show their teeth, Rebecca was really a beauty), both of them revealed a youthful and invincible atmosphere, of course, the woman will be more obvious, but James's oriental appearance, in this world full of white people, is very exotic, so there are a lot of extra points.
James's left hand held Rebecca's right hand, half-raised in the air, like two people about to dance, heading towards the center of the dance floor, but the destination here was home not far away.
……
The next day didn't happen anything very special, the world was quiet, but the place where James and Rebecca lived was different from usual, thanks to the warming of the relationship between the two people, as for what kind of level, they themselves and outsiders did not evaluate, as if all this was a matter of course.
Now that Rebecca has regained her composure, James naturally has to do something he thinks he needs to do, such as he has his own job, he wants to track down Ryan's situation, and of course he will not give up because of Rebecca's accident, because this is not his code of conduct.
So James called Felisti's house through some means: "Hey! Hello! I'm James, James. Zhou, the policeman who went to you today, the young one! ”
"Uh-huh! Hello, I heard it, you won't want me to call you Zhou Handsome Guy! Listening to Felisti's tone, there didn't seem to be displeasure, but he didn't expect James to call.
"Nope! I called this ......"
Before James could finish speaking, Felisty interrupted him and said, "Actually, in a way, I know quite a bit about you. She sighed mischievously and added, "Through some of my channels, of course." Ryan and I have been together for a long time and have been living together for several years. If you ask me if I know anything different about him during this time, I can tell you that he has always been like this. ”
"That's it! Did you really not find anything out of the ordinary? "Because James is not communicating with people face-to-face, he needs to deepen the memory of the other party by repeating the words, as well as the tone of each time the other person speaks.
Sure enough, James's strategy worked, and after being silent for a while, Felisti said intermittently: "There is such a situation, I don't know if it is abnormal, since you want something different, I think I need to tell you!" ”
Hearing this, James suddenly became happy, and he thought that he was going to get an important message, so he stopped breathing for a while, and wanted to write down Felisti's words word for word.
But there is always a difference between the ideal and the reality, although some people can realize their plans, or get what they want, but Felisti's next words, James doesn't think it has any effect, it's just a private matter between boyfriend and girlfriend, that is, a little secret: "Ryan doesn't touch me for a while, and he doesn't talk to me, it seems that he has changed a person, and he always forgets to do things, I really can't imagine that he will kill people, and I can't imagine that he is dead, we once made a vow to join hands with gray hair~~~"
As she spoke, Felisti's voice became smaller and smaller, thinking that she remembered some good past, but she did provide information to James, no matter how she hid it for Ryan before, she did meet Ryan on the day she was killed, and she refused to say whether she spoke or not, but this was already a good start, but Felisti was unwilling to go to the police station to explain her situation, and the official would not receive and believe her, because this case had been closed by the city hall and the LAPD headquarters, which can be said to be in the past tense.
James, who had just put down the phone, was about to think about what to do with Ryan's affairs, when the doorbell suddenly rang, and Rebecca was not downstairs, so she had to open the door by herself.
The door opened, it was a courier, and soon James signed for the express package, and thought about who would send the package to him at this time, Rebecca rushed down, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, began to unpack the package, James because there is no secret to hide, so he does not object, anyway, it is also to be dismantled, whoever dismantles it is the same, and it will save trouble for others to dismantle.
"Ah~~" James, who was shaking his head, heard Rebecca's scream, and the package also fell to the ground, with red stuff overflowing, and a piece of paper, which was very similar to Rebecca's one the day before.
