Chapter Twenty-Five: Clues
1. "Is there anything else you are lying to me? Let me be mentally prepared by saying it in advance." Jessica looked at Charles, who suddenly confessed, and asked with a slightly stiff expression.
"No, I'm a person who rarely lies. Charles said without changing his face, and Jessica rolled her eyes and turned her head, not discussing the sentence with Charles was a lie in itself.
"Okay, let's think about it, what should we look for now? Can you find the surveillance footage of the day of the recent murder?" Jessica calmed down and looked at Charles' magical compass, allowing Charles to start searching for the latest surveillance footage.
"It's not specific enough, sorry, you need a more specific goal, if you can find the goal you said, I'll go straight to the person behind it. Charles thought about it, but he still couldn't form a goal in his heart, if he could find even this kind of goal, he could solve the case directly.
"Well, this is indeed a headless case, and without clues, there is no way to investigate anything. Jessica also felt that this time it was indeed a desperate situation, but the suspicion of not monitoring was not enough to continue the investigation, and it may be that the surrounding neighbors collectively felt that the video of the murderer was not worth keeping.
"It's not impossible, at least we found something suspicious, for the police, this is not enough to investigate, but for us who have received money, this point is worth us to find the murderer of this case, maybe the victim is also possible. ”
After Charles finished speaking, he turned around and posed, and took Jessica to visit the convicted criminal, Anthony Johnson.
In prison, Charles and the two met Anthony Johnson, the focus of the case, and after introducing himself, Charles said straight to the point: "Officer Oscar told us, you once said that a demon controlled you to do this horrible thing, although you only said it once, but can you tell us again?"
"I've pleaded guilty, I don't want to talk about anything about this case anymore, I've been crazy for a long time, understand!" Anthony Johnson had been quiet since he was called out, and said in a sad and low tone after Charles asked questions.
"I received an inheritance, and the guy asked me to prove that his son didn't go crazy and died, so, are you really going to let your father die without turning a blind eye?" Charles didn't show too much enthusiasm for Anthony, and it seemed that as soon as Anthony Johnson said to let Charles out, Charles would go home immediately.
"What do you mean? My father is dead, how is this possible, he has never had any sense of responsibility for this family, how can he die for me?" Anthony Johnson heard Charles say, and instead of expressing sadness for his father who loved him so much, he said another situation, and in his impression, his father had no resemblance to the word "love family" at all.
"It's really interesting!" Charles glanced at Jessica, his interest was completely uplifted, and the more he learned about this incident, Charles began to have an understanding, and then saw Jessica, the purple Kilgrave, the man whose original name was Kevin Thompson, this Jessica's old enemy jumped into Charles's mind.
"Looks like you really need to talk about your demon's domination, because I think your father is also being controlled, so tell us. Charles, having sorted out the situation, began to convince Anthony Johnson in front of him.
"Okay, if that demon really exists, I hope you can help me find out. Anthony Johnson heard Charles's conclusion, and immediately became a little excited, if this kind of thing really happened, Anthony Johnson didn't need to be able to get revenge, because as long as what Charles said was true, even if he fell into hell, he would crawl out of hell and seek revenge on him.
"In my vague memory, I can only remember now that the reason I killed my family was only because there was a man who came to my house and my family disturbed him, so I went to quiet my family, and then it happened, and this is my story, as for my father, I haven't seen him since I was in prison, and I don't know if he met that demon like me. Anthony Johnson sorted out the words and told Charles the whole story in a clear voice.
"Thank you, if there is any new news, I will let you know. Charles almost understood what was going on, and left the prison with Jessica.
"Have you heard any clues? Because I just know that there is a demon who is controlling people's actions, but there is still no clue. Jessica followed behind Charles and asked about Charles, who was walking confidently in front of her.
"I didn't hear anything about the clues, but my goal was clear enough, and my compass had given directions, so let's just find the person. Squinting at Jessica's face of Christen Ritter, Charles felt that he could still find the purple man in this world, and the fixed compass also told him that there was a purple man in this world who looked like David Tenner, Kilgrave.
"Are you sure it's human? Okay, are we going straight over now?" Jessica found that following Charles as a detective, she could find the target with a hint of clues, and it was really a convenient ability, but she didn't know if he could use that compass herself.
"I'm ready, do you need to prepare? Also, shouldn't we think about what we should do with that person if we really meet that person?"
Charles, who was walking in front, paused, the purple Kilgrave's ability is still quite strong, although his body is strong enough, but it may not be immune to his control, Charles is already planning to enter the state of death at any time to face Kilgrave, as for Jessica, the current Jessica must not be immune to Kilgrave's control, so taking Jessica in the past may be against the water at any time, and he has to fight Jessica when he fights the purple man.
"What do I need to prepare? Defeat him directly, as for the rest of the matter, how about catching it and handing it over to S.H.I.E.L.D.D.?" Jessica has become more and more proficient in using superpowers recently, and she still has a certain amount of confidence.
"That's a superpowered person with mind control abilities, if you go over like this, I'm afraid I'll defeat you first, you can observe it for me from afar, you don't have to participate in this battle. After thinking about it, Charles still arranged the task of observing the hand for Jessica, and he also planned to buy a protective suit, judging from Charles's memory, the mind control of the purple man belongs to the virus control, as long as he is not infected with the virus, the purple man cannot control himself at all.
