Chapter 106 The Suspect
"No, he rushed out with a swish. Besides, he was wearing a hat." The two women replied.
George nodded, "It seems that the murderer has hidden his face specially."
At this time, the restaurant manager hurried over with a few police officers.
"Which of you called the police!" A senior police officer asked.
The woman who called the police raised her hand, "It's me."
"Tell me, what happened?" The senior police officer opened the notebook in his hand, preparing to make a record.
The woman who called the police glanced at Violet. Seeing Violet nodded at her, she told the story.
Lily even directly took the police officer's hand, "Sir, please be sure to catch the murderer!"
"Please." The two children also said.
George didn't speak. His eyelids drooped. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Don't worry. This is our duty. We will definitely do it." After pacifying Lily and the two children, the senior police officer pulled his hand back and began to ask Violet.
After the question, the senior police officer frowned tightly, "So troublesome!"
"What's wrong?" the restaurant manager asked hurriedly.
The restaurant under his jurisdiction happened such things. How could he not be in a hurry?
"According to this young lady, the murderer was specially disguised. Besides, this is a restroom. There is no surveillance, let alone the murderer's face, even the body height of the murderer is not known. It
is not easy to catch." The senior police officer sighed.
"There is surveillance in the corridor." The restaurant manager pointed to his head and said.
George raised his eyebrows, "Really? That's great. The surveillance in the corridor will definitely capture the scene of murderer escaping. How about going to the monitoring room?"
"Okay." The senior police officer nodded.
Lily helped Violet up from the chair. A group of more than a dozen people walked towards the monitoring room.
As George said, the surveillance did capture the scene of the murderer coming out of the women’s restroom. But unfortunately, the identity of the murderer was still not confirmed.
So the senior police officer had no choice but to go back to the police station to make a transcript, and then started the investigation.
"Aye!" Violet sneezed several times before leaving the restaurant.
Lily turned to the restaurant manager and asked, "Do you have a hair dryer? How about letting my daughter dry her hair first? Otherwise, she will catch a cold."
"Yes, we have." The restaurant manager nodded repeatedly.
Lily left the two children to George and asked him to take care of them, while she took Violet and followed the manager to dry the hair.
"Hey, isn't that Violet?" Behind a window in the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, a baby-faced man was surprised when he saw Violet.
Afterwards, he took out his cell phone and dialed out the phone number, "Hey, Stanley, guess who I saw."
"Boring!" Stanley stared at the computer in front of him, and replied coldly.
Henry laughed twice, "I saw Violet."
Stanley paused when he tapped the keyboard, "Violet?"
"Yes."
"Where did you see her?" Stanley put the phone to his ear.
Henry tapped on the window and replied, "Emgrand Restaurant, but she doesn't look well."
"What's the matter?" Stanley asked in a deep voice and tightened the hand which held the mobile phone.
Henry looked at Violet below, "I don't know the specifics. She seems to have been frightened. Her face is very pale and her hair is wet. She wears a men's jacket. The important is that there are two police officers following her. Stanley..."
Before Henry finished speaking, he suddenly found that there was no sound on the other side of the phone. He took the phone to the front and looked at it. Stanley actually hung up the phone.
It seemed that Stanley was ready to rush here after hearing Violet's situation.
Downstairs, Violet got the hair dryer. With Lily's help, she dried her hair. Then, she followed the two police officers into the police car and left the restaurant.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when she finished the record and came out from the police station.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Violet and others walked in the night. The atmosphere was very down.
"Violet, is your mood better?" George asked softly while looking at Violet who bowed her head and said nothing.
Violet gave a hmm and forced a smile, "It's better."
"Mommy..." The two children looked at her. The worry in their eyes was so obvious.
Violet squatted down and touched the heads of the two children, "Don't worry. Mommy is all right."
"Mommy, I'm scared." Arya threw herself directly into Violet’s arms, "I almost lost Mommy."
"Yes, who is so vicious and wants Mommy's life!" Calvin said with clenching his small fist, his face full of anger.
Lily pursed her lips, "According to the police station, it should be the people around us. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know Violet's whereabouts so clearly, and lurk in the restroom."
"Yes, I think it's the people around me too." Violet nodded.
There was a complicated look in George’s eyes, "Violet, who do you think of?"
Violet moved her lips. Just when she was about to speak, a car horn came from not far away.
Immediately afterwards, two high beams came on, shining on Violet and other, making them a little bit unable to open their eyes.
"Who is it?" Lily put her hand in front of her eyes.
"It's Uncle Murphy." The two children blinked. Seeing the tall figure walking against the light, both of them jumped up happily.
"Uncle Murphy." The two children ran towards Stanley.
Seeing the two children's enthusiastic attitude towards Stanley, George’s eyes behind the glasses narrowed, but soon they returned to nature.
Stanley squatted down and picked up Arya. The other hand held Calvin’s hand and they walked to Violet. Then he looked Violet up and down, "Are you okay?"
Violet said, "How do you know that something happened to me?"
"Henry told me. He was also in the restaurant." Stanley replied.
Violet suddenly lifted her chin, "It turned out to be like this."
"Has the murderer been caught?" Stanley put Arya down and asked again.
"No, but I feel that this murderer is just someone who takes money to do things. The real murderer is still hiding in the dark." Lily sighed.
Violet’s eyes fixed on Stanley.
When Lily saw it, she was a little puzzled, "Violet, what are you staring at Stanley like this?"
Violet's eyes flickered, "Nothing."
She looked away.
Stanley caught something wrong. His eyes darkened, but he didn’t ask what she was thinking. He proposed, "Ma’am, it's late. I will drive you guys back first."
"Okay." Lily nodded, "Thank you."
"Ma’am, then I won't go with you." George said with a smile.
Lily wanted to ask him the reason. Then he said, "There will be an operation tomorrow morning. I want to go back to rest early."
"Okay, be careful." Lily nodded and agreed.
Violet and the two children waved their hands and said goodbye to him.
Only Stanley didn't move, pretending that he didn’t see it.
George didn't care about it. He still said goodbye to Stanley, and then drove away.
"Then let's go back." Lily looked back after George's car disappeared.
Stanley nodded slightly and had no objection.
On the way back to the apartment, Lily looked at Stanley who was driving, and tentatively asked, "Stanley, why did you come to us all of a sudden?"
"The Murphy Group has shares in Emgrand Restaurant. Such things happened to you guys! As one of the bosses, I have to do something." Stanley lowered his eyelids and said lightly.
Lily was a little disappointed. She thought he was worried about Violet.
She seemed to be thinking too much. It was only Violet loved him.
"Mr. Murphy, can I ask you a question?" Violet suddenly said after coaxing the two children to sleep.
