Chapter 448
After Jimmy hung up, he immediately started the car and headed straight for Ariah''s house.
However, not long after he left, Ben called him.
"Hey, our people have already reached Ro''s residence, but he still did not want toe out."
Ben looked at the person in the room with his telescope and continued, "We are watching this guy
closely now. He will never be able to run away."
Several murder cases had happened in the east of the city over the past two months. They were not
in charge of the area, but two days ago Jimmy suddenly contacted the headquarters and
volunteered to undertake the case, which confused Ben, for this was undoubtedly a challenging
task.
Half an hour ago, Ben slowly understood the reason behind the decision.
A photo of a criminal suspect had been sent to Jimmy by the police station. As his facial expression
changed, he instructed everyone to rush to Ro''s residence without hesitation and wanted them to
keep an eye on him.
"The evidence is not enough." That was his reason for not arresting Ro.

The police had only suspected that Ro was a murderer, but they could not arrest him without
substantial evidence.
Therefore, they could only wait until hemitted the crime again, which would constitute a solid
reason to put him behind bars.
After Jimmy sent someone to keep an eye on Ro, he quickly went to Ariah''s house.
"Be alerted. If he makes any moves, you have to call me directly," said Jimmy as he turned the
steering wheel. "If things are not going well, you can just take action without bothering whether
there is enough evidence."
"Got it!"
Jimmy thus put away his phone and arrived at Ariah''s residence in less than 20 minutes.
Even if she was not staying with him, her life was still prettyfortable. The apartment she rented
was in a high-ss residential area, so the public security was good, and he did not need to worry
that she would be in danger in broad daylight.
As for Ro, he was still in the small rented house, watched closely by Jimmy''s teammates.
Rage spread through Jimmy when he thought that Ariah was close to Ro. Didn''t she sleep with
the guy? Did she know he was a murderer?
He could not help imagining her action he informed her of Ro''s identityter.
What was so good about Ro? How could Ariah bear affection for him? She had even slept with
him, which appalled Jimmy.
Whenever he thought about how the two of them spent their night in bed, rage would definitely roar
through his mind.
He must put that unscrupulous man in jail!
He would never let go of anyone who touched his woman!
When Jimmy reached the underground parking lot, he was relieved to see that Ariah''s car was still
there, which showed how obedient she was. He knew where she usually parked her car, for he had
observed it when he was here before.
Although she sometimes had a stubborn temper, she was always able to figure out when he was
joking and he was serious.
After arriving at her residence on the fifth floor, Jimmy exited the elevator and walked toward her
home in a rather good mood. However, just as he was about to reach her unit, he suddenly
stopped.
Why was the door open?
As his body became stiff, the expression on his face quickly darkened. Before he got close, he
couldn''t help but shout, "Ariah!"
Unfortunately, nobody responded to him.
With a pounding heart, he strode into the room and called her name a few more times. But there
was still no reply.
There was no one in the living room, the bedroom, and the bathroom...
Standing alone in the empty unit, he was surrounded by an overwhelming sense of fear.
Most likely, Ariah would not joke with him like this, especially when the door was not closed at all.
For this reason, Jimmy''s face tightened, and the veins on his forehead twitched.
Something must have happened to her!
With a trembling hand, he dialed Ben''s number. "What''s the matter?" asked Ben in anguid
manner.
"Go and check whether Ro is at home!"
Ben was shocked when he heard this serious tone. Subconsciously, he asked, "What''s wrong?"
"Stop asking stupid questions!"
Jimmy roared as rage welled up in his chest.
Ben was so scared that he didn''t dare to hesitate anymore and immediately rushed o the corridor.
"Alright. I''m going there now. Why are you so angry?!"
After Jimmy confirmed that there was no one in the house, he quickly calmed down and called
Ariah. As expected, the phone rang in her bag, which had been ced on the cab at the
entrance.
Taking a deep breath, he dialed Ben''s number again. As he asked Ben to check whether Ro was
there or not, he immediately went to the management office and requested to check the
surveince.
He should not have deleted the surveince footage of Ariah''s living room. Otherwise, he would not
have been so helpless now.
The manager did not take him seriously at first. Nheless, Jimmy just cast his verification ID on
the table and dragged the manager to the surveince room.
The manager was frightened by Jimmy''s aggressiveness, especially his sharp eyes, which were as
intimidating as an eagle.
In the face of such a scary man, the manager quickly turned on the monitor for him.
At this time, he heard Ben''s voice over the phone. "Ro is not here? Are you telling me that you
are just a fake? Dude, who are you? Who asked you to stay here? Don''t try to fool me!"
Terrified, the man stuttered, "S-Someone offered me a huge sum of money to stay here for two
days... I can enjoy myself while earning money. W-Why should I reject such a good deal?"
Jimmy was shocked by the conversation on the other end of the phone. "Take the person back to
the police station first. I will talk to youter."
After that, he hung up the phone and focused on watching the surveince.
Ariah had disappeared about half an hour ago, so it did not take him a long time before he could
finish watching the footage.
There were many peopleing in and out of Ariah''s apartment. It wasn''t until a man wearing a
ck hood appeared in the video that Jimmy''s entire body stiffened.
Because of his profession, Jimmy had a pair of sharp eyes. Although the man wrapped himself
tightly and wore a hat, Jimmy could still recognize him at a nce.
It was Ro.
While Jimmy''s hand, which was holding the mouse, gradually tightened, he stared at Ro on the
monitor screen with a pair of cold, gloomy eyes.
That guy must be courting death!
