Who was that man? Was he a passer-by?
Ste had some doubts, but regardless, she could sleep well that night. However, she knew she had to be cautious the next day.
She thought there might be a big possibility that the police might catch the clown that night. Ifthey caught the clown, Vann would most definitely call her immediately, and she might still be asleep by then.
She didn’t want her sleep to be affected as she would usually get a splitting headache after being woken up.
She turned off her phone and went to sleep.
It was already 6. 15 a. m. when she woke up the next day.
She went to brush her teeth, washed her face, made breakfast, watered the flowers, and then turned on her cell phone.
A lot of notifications appeared, all from Vann, her teammates, Alissa, and two unfamiliar numbers.
She called Vann.
The call was quickly answered.
“Ste, we caught that clown. He’s just like what you described him to be. His car is full of toys and roses. All the toys had hidden cameras inside. He’s Uncle Joker, isn’t he? He wouldn’t say a word when we asked him,” Vann said anxiously.
“Have you found aputer in his car? Ask Edwin to hack into his recordings, he should be able to see a lot of videos of the deceased. He doesn’t need to say anything as the evidence is conclusive,” Ste suggested.
“When he realized that he was pursued by the police, he guessed that he might’ve been discovered. He’s a really cautious person. He burned hisputer immediately and destroyed the evidence. The toys and flowers were all saved by us at thest minute too,” Vann exined.
“Alright, I understand. I have a consultation in the morning. I’ll go over to the police station after having breakfast,” Ste said and hung up.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
She turned on the TV as she had herbreakfast.The news was broadcasting the matter of the clown burning down his car and house.
She nced at the screen and noticed a photo. She then called Vann and asked, “Vann, there’s a photo in the clown’s car.Did you guys retrieve it?”
“Are you talking about the clown’s photo?” Vann asked.
“Go and look into his past. Let me know in detail when I arrive there,” Ste said, she then hung up and continued to eat her breakfast.
She didn’t go grocery shopping after she was done with her breakfast. She thought of heading over to the supermarket at noon and having a good meal after clearing her schedule.
When she arrived at the police station, the other members were also there,with the exception of Alissa.
“You guys are here so early,” Ste said.
“To be exact, we camest night and we hadn’t leave this spot since,” Ray yawned.
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Go back and have a rest. Since you have caught him, he won’t be able to escape for now,” Ste advised.
Ray yawned again.“I want to learn psychology from you, so I’ll leave after you’re done with the interrogation. Vann said that he’ll find someone new to join us. I think that person wille a littleter.”
“Alright,” Ste nodded. “I’ll head over the evidence room to get some things.”
“I’ll apany you,” Ray said.
When Edwin saw that Ray was apanying Ste, he immediately stood up and said, “I’ll go too.”
“Let’s go together,” Ste said. She went to the evidence room and took a look at the evidence collected from the clown. She picked up a very old photo and an old toy.
“Why are you taking these?” Ray asked in confusion.
“These might be things that he cherished a lot and might have left a deep impression on him,” Ste exined.
She went to Vann’s office to find out Uncle Joker’s past.
She poured a cup of coffee, went to the interrogation room, and handed it to the clown.
The clown looked at Ste in surprise, but he didn’t say anything.
Ste sat in front of him and said, “Drink. You should be very sleepy, very thirsty, and very hungry. Tell me, what do you want to eat? I’ll bring it to you the next time Ie in here.”
“Don’t think that I’ll thank you just because you’re doing this to me. I didn’t kill them. You’ve got the wrong person. Please let me go. I need to go to work at the next ce and give the children toys,” The clown said with his eyes widened.
“There are cameras in the toys. Who is he trying to fool?” Edwin said disdainfully.
Ste was quiet and she continued observing him, “Joker, do you know that Neil misses you a lot? He was assigned to an orphanage and was very unhappy. The director of that orphanage wasn’t a good person. She’s involved in the ck market and she sells the organs of little children. When Neil found out about it, she would often hit him. This was broadcasted on the news, but what wasn’t broadcasted was the fact that Neil really did miss you.”
“I don’t know who you are talking about. Who’s Neil? I don’t know him at all,” Joker tried to argue.
“Do you miss your Uncle Joker?” Ste asked.
The clown was stunned and said with his eyes fixed on Ste, “I won’t say anything within these 24 hours.”
“He is still alive. He was released from prison. Do you know that?” Ste said.
“He was released?” Joker was very shocked and went into a daze. He lowered his head and refused to let anyone look at his expression. He frowned and said, “Why are you telling me all these?”
“He said that you two had an excellent rtionship. When you were a child, he loved you the most. So,he couldn’t bear to kill youwhen he saw you smiling at him. He treated you as though you were his own son. If he could, he wanted to see you,” Ste continued.
“Why was he released when he killed my mother, my grandfather, my grandmother, and my brother?” Joker was visibly frazzled and he began asking questions.
“A health check-up showed that he had brain cancer, and he won’t live more than a month. So, since he behaved well during his 20 years of prison, he was given special permission for parole.”
“I won’t forgive him. He made me lose my loved ones, and I don’t want to see him,” Joker said decisively.
“One day, when Neil learned that you pretended to be his father and killed all of his family and rtives, he probably won’t forgive you too,” Ste said calmly.
“I didn’t kill anyone,” Joker denied immediately.
“I came herenot to make you admit that you killed someone. You have a habit of retrieving the toys, but not throwing them away, so the fingerprints and blood of the deceased are still on the toys.”
“It’s impossible. I cleaned the toys that I have retrieved at least 3 times. It’s impossible to have any blood or fingerprints on them,” Joker said.
The atmosphere in the monitor room outside the interrogation room immediately livened up.
“He admitted to it!Ste really knows her way around it. She has only entered for a short while, but she has already gotten the answer. She’s awesome,” Edwin said with admiration.
“He refused to spill anything no matter what we did, but Ste got the answer easily just after entering the room for a few minutes. How did she do that?” Ray felt a bit discouraged.
They were all excited. They didn’t notice that a tall man had entered the room.
He looked at Ste, who was on the screen, deeply.
Without him, his woman seemed to be getting better and better.
What should he do so that he could earn a ce in her heart again?
“Ste, actually, I’ve always been here,” Jasper murmured in his heart. He looked at Ste with infatuation. The color in his eyes became darker and darker, bing as deep as the ocean…
