Chapter 53: Death Threats
It didn't help to say more, and James didn't want to argue with a woman who had entered into self-centeredness, so he naturally and decisively ended up staying in Rebecca's room, whether she really just wanted to understand Ryan or something else, it didn't matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As for tonight's incident, it was a high-quality prank, because James didn't have any clues, and the piece of paper might be a focus, but this one is too ordinary, untargeted, and there is little hope of cracking it, so it's better to calm down first.
Just about to leave Rebecca's bedroom, the person was still by the broken door, Rebecca stopped James and said: "By the way, we changed rooms, there is no door, do you have to be a gentleman, besides, you are a good policeman with a sense of responsibility!" ”
Of course, James knows that what Rebecca said earlier is the point, and the words of praise later are all to make reasons for the front, make excuses, and not take it seriously, although he himself thinks so, but this is only in his own world, and he is not shameless and arrogant enough to sell himself and boast.
Whether it is true or not, it is always psychologically happy to be praised, so James replied to Rebecca: "Yes, I can also help you fix the door panel, you don't have to pay me, I will serve you for free!" ”
When Rebecca heard James's words, she didn't refute it, but just told the person in front of her with a pair of white eyeballs: "Who broke my door panel?" It's you! It's you! It's you! You shameless! Of course, she can't say these words, because she doesn't know how James will behave, and besides, although she is not wearing revealing clothes now, her pajamas are always thin, if the other party is unhappy and animalistic, she doesn't resist? Or not resist? This is a difficult choice, in order to avoid this choice, or choose to be obedient and be a lady instead of a mature woman.
"Yes! Thank you! My Sergeant, you are such a good man! It may be that Rebecca bent down and bowed as she spoke, and she accidentally exposed a large area of her chest, or she may have not chosen the correct and suitable answer in the question of whether to resist or not, so she ignored her own violations.
And James didn't mean to look at it, this small space, only less than 10 square meters, just two people, and not far apart, face-to-face communication, his eyes were on the other party when Rebecca just stopped him, and now at this angle, I don't believe that I don't want to see that whiteness, so he coughed dryly and said: "Ahem!" You're welcome, my landlord, do I need to escort you to my bedroom? ”
"You can send me there, we can also exchange about the rent, of course it's not bad news, it may be good news...... ha" I don't know what's wrong, when Rebecca said this sentence by herself, combined with the cause and effect, she always felt that something was wrong there, as if there was an ambiguity in the place, but she didn't think of what the place was, just frowned, and then accompanied by James, walked towards the outside of the room.
The next morning, James called his partner before leaving home, which had been agreed upon, and their conversation was brief and to the point.
"I'm George."
"Hi, I'm James. I'm going out now. ”
"Okay."
The car drove George. When Darcy's family was in the neighborhood, George was already waiting for the other party's arrival in his yard, not because George didn't have a car, but because they had begun to get used to going into town together and going to work together, which was a good breakthrough and a manifestation of a normal and friendly partnership.
James and George got out of the car in the parking garage of the precinct and walked to the office building, and it was nine twenty o'clock, and the faint and tasteless sunlight was pouring down from the gray sky. They cocked their coat collars to ward off the chill of the morning and followed the established route to the place where they worked together.
But soon the change of clothes came out, and there was something to go outside today.
Walking east along the block, James and George turned the corner to another block street, at which point James said, "Have you heard how the survivor is doing?" That guy named Shmartin?"
George replied casually, "I called the hospital in the morning and asked." The operation was successful, at least he was alive, but still unconscious. The doctors couldn't judge until he woke up. ”
"Will he wake up?" James is very concerned with the situation of that colleague, after all, he is the only person who knows the truth of the matter before Ryan was killed, and if he can give himself valuable clues, it will play a very key role in the reorganization of the case. But George didn't seem to care, and he shrugged, "They don't know. I certainly hope he will wake up. ”
"I wonder how long it will take for the media to find out about him." James continued to ask. "St. Mary's Hospital guarantees that it will not leak out." George's point provided James with some information.
Speaking of reporters, James didn't seem to be very interested in them, and his expression was good, so he said: "That's right, but you know what kind of virtue those reporters are, just like leeches." ”
Turn onto Olympic Avenue and walk to the location of number 38. The name of the resident at the door is "Lyle", but on the third floor is a white card with the words "Felisti?" written in ink with a drawing pen. Lyle".
Gently pressing the doorbell, the girl who answered the door was petite, and George intuitively estimated that she was about five feet three inches tall.
"Come in and take off your shoes." The girl said meticulously.
Since the master had such a request, of course James and George complied, and when they came in, she closed the door. The girl's voice was low and hoarse. Felisti? Lyle wore narrow-barreled black trousers, a cornflower blue ribbed open-collar tunic with thick gray socks that were several sizes larger than the so-called Ryan's.
Her eyes are brown, her black hair is cut very short, and her face is angular, which can neither be said to be sweet nor beautiful, but can only be said to be very distinctive. She has a light body, slender shoulders and hips, and small breasts.
She stood silently, and George and James hung their hats next to Strern's old hat on the hat rack and took off their shoes. Then she led the way into the room.
The living room has two windows facing the street, and the atmosphere is warm and pleasant. On one wall stands a large bookcase with carvings on both sides and a crest. With the exception of a bookcase and a high-backed armchair, the rest of the furniture looks new. A bright red handmade wool carpet covers most of the floor, as do the thin wool curtains.
The room is irregular, with a short walkway leading to the kitchen at the farthest corner from the door. An open door in the hallway leads to the other rooms. The kitchen and bedroom face the atrium at the back.
Felisti? Lyle sat in a leather chair and tucked his feet under him. She pointed to the two canvas chairs, and George and James sat down. There was an ashtray on the low table between them and her, and the cigarette butt was full.
"I hope you understand that we're sad that we have to bother you." George said seriously, but looked at Felisti for a moment before continuing: "But we have to talk to you as soon as possible, it's very important. ”
Felisti? Lyle didn't answer right away. She picked up the cigarette next to the ashtray that hadn't been extinguished and took a deep breath. Her hands seemed to tremble at any moment, and there were dark circles around her eyes.
"Of course I do," she replied succinctly, as if she had thought of something, and continued, "It's good that you're here." I've been sitting in this chair and have ...... Since I learned...... I've been sitting here and trying to tell myself it's true. ”
"Miss Felisti," James called sincerely, waiting for a reply before asking, "Do you have any relatives or friends to accompany you?"
Felisti? Lyle shook his head and said, "No, I don't want anyone to come anyway." ”
"What about your parents?" If George asked this time, it may also be out of love for his partner, or it may be that he thinks of helping him, so he can help, after all, James is no longer a stranger to him now, of course, he can't talk about life and death, but he has more contact with people, especially family members, so he helps ask a key question.
Hear George's words, Felisti? Lyle didn't cause any bad expressions, and said very quietly: "Mom passed away last year. My dad has been dead for twenty years, too. ”
George leaned forward and looked at Felisti carefully? Lyle, then asked, "Have you ever slept?" He asked.
"I don't know. The guy who came yesterday gave me some medicine, so I probably got some sleep. It doesn't matter, I'm fine. "Felisti? Lyle extinguished his cigarette butt, lowered his eyelids and muttered, "I'm just going to have to get used to the fact that he's dead." It may take a while. ”
Neither George nor James knew what to say. George suddenly noticed that the room was stuffy and filled with cigarette smoke. A heavy silence pressed against the three of them. Finally, James cleared his throat and said solemnly:
"Miss Ferristy, would you mind if we asked you some Ryan. Martin's thing?"
Felisti? Lyle slowly raised her eyes, and suddenly her eyes sparkled and smiled.
In fact, no matter what, as a woman, can you not mind dating someone who is on the wanted list and has the fact of cohabitation, what can be said about Felisti? Hasn't Lyle watched TV or the newspaper? Besides, her existence doesn't just prove that there are two Ryan, one in the prison car, and the other lives here, but no one knows which one is the cover and which one is the real person.
Just as James and George were asking, an incident occurred in another part of the city.
This is the scene of a car accident, the scene has been surrounded by a circle of people, the police also came down from the sentry box at the intersection, several young men pointed to the injured people and ran down the street, the driver of the accident with a sad face while taking out his driver's license while explaining to the police.
And the one who received the death threat was a girl, very familiar and incredible, because this woman was Rebecca.
