Chapter 492
Being choked by the smoke, Ben and Edward almost burst into tears.
"Ahem..."
Coughing, they asked, "Capt., why don''t you turn on the light?"
Not only were the lights off, but even the windows were shut. It was really stuffy.
Thinking about that, Ben hinted at Edward, who then immediately ran to open the windows. Finally,
fresh air came in.
Meanwhile, Jimmy sat on the sofa, smoking silently. His face was stern and there were dark circles
under his eyes. On the tea table, the ashtray was full.
"Capt., you can''t keep on smoking like this. It''s bad for your health!" Edward could not help but
comfort him, "Director Sherlock has already informed his superior on this. All the police departments
in the city will join in the rescue. We will definitely be able to find out Ariah 1"
Ben also said, "Indeed, Capt. The members of the Special Task Force are experts from all fields. So
we could definitely..."
Before Ben could finish, Jimmy suddenly put off the cig in his hand and walked out.
"Capt., what''s wrong?" Ben was shocked.
Jimmy didn''t look back. "Nothing. I''m just going out for a walk. I''ll be back soon."
"Oh."
Hearing that, Ben nodded.
After a while, Ben came to think of something. "Hey, did you see the expression on his face just
now? He didn''t seem like just taking a walk. Could he be..."
"Nah, I don''t overthink it!"
"Alright, hopefully I''m just overthinking it."
Jimmy drove all the way to an old residential area. The building was quite shabby, and I stained the
walls with mildew.
Taking out a gun from his waist, he kicked open the door of an apartment and strode in.
The two men in the room didn''t expect someone to suddenly break in and quickly pulled out their
guns. Jimmy swiftly punched the short man, who then squatted down, covering his nose.
Then, with the gun in his hand, Jimmy pointed at the other man''s forehead. "Ro, ask your man to
stay still!"
Ro nced at the man squatting on the ground and ordered, "Felipe, don''t move."
Hearing that, Felipe remained still.
Jimmy then went straight to the point and asked, "Do you know Kevin Bradbury?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Don''t y dumb!" Jimmy scowled, "Ro, if anything happens to Ariah, I won''t let you off!"
Instantly, Ro''s face changed a little. With a frown, he pushed away Jimmy''s gun and asked,
"What do you mean?"
"Ariah''s taken away by Kevin Bradbury. If you still care about her, then tell me everything you
know!" said Jimmy as he looked squarely at Ro.
"You think I know Kevin and that I know where he took her?"
Immediately, Jimmy went silent. The reason that he came to Ro now was that he had no other
choice. When Ariah was kidnappedst time, Ro was the one who saved Ariah before he did. So
he thought that Ro might know something this time as well...
There was a long silence in the small room. Finally, Ro said, "Felipe, give us some privacy."
But Felipe was a little hesitant. "Ro, this guy..."
"Don''t worry, he won''t harm me."
Hearing that, Felipe could only leave them alone.
When it was just the two of them, Ro asked, "How did you get here?"
This ce was very hidden.
"Well, I also know your other hiding ces." Jimmy looked impatient. "Do you really think that no
one knows about your background, huh?"
"Oh?" Ro smiled contemptuously. "Since you know my background so well, how can you not
know whether I''m acquainted with Kevin?"
Jimmy was choked by his words.
To be honest, he still hadn''t figured out about Ro''s background yet. He only knew where he hid.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Ro''s background must be so dangerous and hidden that even he, a cop, couldn''t find out about
it.
Meanwhile, Ro stepped aside and lit a cig. After taking two puffs, he said, "Kevin was nicknamed
as Beast due to his way of killing people cruelly, and back then, it was you whoy low beside him
and gained his trust, then killed him during the fire."
"Everyone thinks that Kevin is dead, but I don''t believe that such a cunning man would die just like
that without seeing his dead body. So I''ve been secretly investigating him all these years."
"And half a year ago, I noticed that there were several murder cases in Cresthill and xdon that
looked a little unusual as I found that the victims were holding paper stars in their hands..."
It was obviously Kevin''s modus operandi —putting paper stars in the victims'' hands upon killing
them.
"Then, there started to be simr cases in Beachmarsh City too, so I came here." Speaking of this,
Ro remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, the first night when I came here, I met
Ariah in a bar. She was drunk and surrounded by a few thugs who tried to take advantage of her. So
I helped her out."
Later, he realized that Ariah was actually Jimmy''s wife.
Hearing that, Jimmy gritted his teeth. "Oh, really? Thank you for helping my wife then."
"Don''t mention it." As if he didn''t see the dark look on Jimmy''s face, he narrowed his eyes slightly
and continued, "Now that I think about it, Ariah was like a hooligan then. She kept throwing herself
on me and even wanted to kiss me. If I hadn''t been agile in dodging her, she could have taken
advantage of me..."
"Shut up!" Jimmy was livid when he heard this.
Ro just shot him a nce andmented,
"Jimmy, don''t be so short-tempered. It''s not a big deal."
Jimmy was speechless.
Of course, a man would get angry when someone called his wife a hooligan.
Nevertheless, Jimmy took a deep breath and got back to the subject. "What happened after that?"
"Well, I decided to stay here. I thought that since you were the one who killed him, he would
definitelye back for you if he hadn''t died. So I took the chance to lie low beside you and your
wife. That way, if Kevin appears, I''ll be able to catch him!"
"Last time when Ariah was kidnapped, I thought it was Kevin who did it, but it turned out to be an
imitation."
The imitater was the killer clown. He was a psychopath who imitated Kevin''s way of killing, thus
making Ro think that Kevin had appeared in Beachmarsh City.
"Therefore, in the past few days, I''ve been wondering if I had misjudged and that Kevin had died
already..."
