Chapter 611: 208: The truth gradually surfacing, Luxi takes action_3
After all, which child isn’t beaten when they’re young?
James had hit Aunt Zhang since he thought this cheap woman deserved it, but he had never hit Olivia Cooper.
But now, suddenly hearing about Olivia’s death from the police, James couldn’t accept it.
“You’re lying to me, aren’t you?”
“How did my daughter die?”
“How exactly did my daughter die?”
He still wanted Olivia to support him in his old age, but now Olivia was dead. What was he supposed to do?
Oliver Andrews looked at James, “You really don’t know?”
“I really don’t know,” James said with red eyes, “Officer, tell me who killed my daughter, and I’ll kill their entire family!”
Oliver Andrews squinted his eyes without any expression, “Let’s go back to the station first.”
Soon after, the car stopped in front of the police station.
Oliver Andrews got out of the car.
Ling walked out from inside, “Andrews, did you bring the person?”
Oliver Andrews nodded, looking at the car, “But I always feel that James’s reaction is not like that of a murderer.”
A murderer, no matter how good the disguise, probably couldn’t pretend so well.
At that moment, when James said he wanted to avenge his daughter, the hatred in his eyes was too real!
That was the look of a father.
Maybe, James wasn’t a qualified father before.
But when he found out that his daughter had been killed, he would still avenge her without hesitation.
Ling also turned to look in the car and said, “Let’s take him in for interrogation first. The person with the greatest suspicion right now is James.”
“Okay.”
Following Oliver Andrews into the interrogation room, James kept asking about Olivia’s cause of death.
Oliver Andrews led James to a computer, pointed at the surveillance video on the screen, and asked, “Is this you dragging the suitcase?”
“Yes, that’s me.” James nodded.
Oliver Andrews carefully observed James’s expression before looking at Ling.
Ling squinted slightly.
James’s reaction was indeed strange.
Assuming James was really the murderer, at this moment, no matter how strong his psychological defense was, he shouldn’t be so calm.
But there was no trace of panic on James’s face.
Oliver Andrews then asked, “Why did you run away without looking back after throwing away the suitcase?”
James replied, “Because the place was too dark and gloomy. There was not a single person at night, and I’ve been afraid of ghosts since I was a child. I suspected there was a ghost following me!”
Oliver Andrews scolded angrily, “If you didn’t do anything guilty, would you be afraid of ghosts?”
Taken aback by the sudden outburst, James admitted he hadn’t done anything wrong with teary eyes, “Officer, what are you trying to say? Is it wrong for me to be afraid of ghosts? Does being afraid of ghosts mean that I’ve done something guilty! Right, you haven’t told me what happened to my daughter yet?! Who is the murderer! I want to avenge my daughter!”
Oliver Andrews and Ling exchanged glances again.
Both were somewhat puzzled.
A moment later, Ling added, “James, stop pretending. You accidentally killed your daughter Olivia Cooper, then put her body in a suitcase and threw it away at the garbage station, didn’t you?”
“What are you talking about? Let me tell you! I never hit my daughter!” Saying this, James seemed to realize something, and his face turned pale, “What, what did you just say was in the suitcase?”
“Your daughter’s body,” Ling stared into James’s eyes and pressed forward, “You said you aren’t the one who killed your daughter, so why did you appear at the garbage station with a suitcase containing your daughter’s body?”
No wonder!
No wonder the suitcase was so heavy.
James figured it all out and suddenly became furious, “It was that cheap woman! It was Nidya! She killed my daughter and tried to frame me! Cheap woman! Cheap woman!”
At this point, James looked at Ling and Oliver Andrews and said, “Officers, here’s what happened…”
James explained the details of the incident carefully.
At the moment, there was no solid evidence to prove that James was the murderer, so he could only be temporarily detained.
After walking out of the interrogation room, Ling looked at Oliver Andrews, “Andrews, what do you think?”
Oliver Andrews squinted, “Although the person who dumped the body is James, I think his answers are not problematic. This matter is definitely not as simple as it seems. Under the current circumstances, both husband and wife are under suspicion.”
