Chapter 368 Find Evidence


    Eric waited outside the Gu''s house for nearly twenty minutes before he saw Ellison''s familiar car.


    The car stopped in front of Eric. Ellison and Hailey got off almost at the same time. One got off the


    driver''s seat, and the other got off the passenger''s seat.


    Hailey wore casual clothes. It was not cold or hot. She wore a beige loose sweater and a pair of ck


    trousers, which wrapped her slender and straight long legs very eye-catching, and a pair of ck


    casual shoes with floral prints.

    With her soft and straight ck hair, she looked so beautiful in this dress.


    The two of them were on a date, but Eric called them, so they had toe. Therefore, at this moment,


    Ellison''s face was very unhappy.


    "What happened? Why did you ask Hailey toe in such a hurry?"


    Eric knew that he was in a bad mood. It was strange that he could be in a good mood if he was


    interrupted, but he had no choice.


    He looked at him with his deep eyes and said, "My grandfather passed away."


    "What?" Ellison and Hailey widened their eyes at the same time, their faces full of disbelief.


    Soon, Hailey reacted, "No wonder you said it was a matter of life and death on the phone."


    No matter how unhappy Ellison was, he couldn''t show it at the moment. He reached out and patted on


    Eric''s shoulder,forting him silently.


    "You want me to help you investigate the cause of your grandfather''s death?" Hailey asked.


    Eric nodded, "Come with me."


    After saying that, he turned around and walked forward. Ellison and Hailey looked at each other and


    followed him.


    Eric didn''t take them to the front door, but through the back door.


    Now Simon and Frank were still there, worrying that they would see it. ording to what Jarvis said in


    the hospital, they sent Wayne to the hospital, so they were at home at that time and were also


    suspected.


    After entering the back garden from the back door, Eric led them straight to the steps where Jarvis


    found Wayne.


    "He found my grandfather here." He pointed at that ce and said to Hailey.


    "Okay." Hailey nodded. At this moment, she seemed to have entered the mode of investigation. She


    frowned slightly, with a serious expression on her face, and observed the ground with her eyes.


    Ellison seemed to have noticed something wrong. "Do you suspect that your grandfather''s death is not


    a coincidence?"


    Eric nodded, with cruelty in his ck eyes, "Grandpa has a heart disease. He had a heart attack some


    time ago, but it was only when he was stimted. Today in the hospital, the doctor said that grandpa


    wouldn''t have a heart attack if he was not stimted, so I suspect that someone deliberately provoked


    him."


    Hearing what he said, Ellison also frowned. Although it had nothing to do with him, he naturally felt that


    it had something to do with himself since he was associated with Eric.


    Hailey bent down and walked around the ce where the ident happened. She roughly observed


    the ground with the naked eye. Then she stood straight, pointed at the winter tree and said, "The dead


    fell here. I guess he wanted to climb back to his room for help, but he lost his strength when he climbed


    to the stairs."


    "Yes." Eric answered calmly, "I have seen it before."


    "I can''t find any other clue here except this," Hailey frowned and continued, "The scene is too simple.


    Except for the crawling traces of the dead, there are no other traces."


    "You mean we can''t find out the real murderer?" Eric''s face darkened.


    Hailey nced at him and smiled, "Don''t worry. Let''s first check the ce where the dead went today,


    and then we will go to see the corpse. There may be unexpected discovery on the corpse."


    Pursing his lips and looking at the ground, Ellison, who was thinking about something, suddenly raised


    his head and said, "Dear, we can find some clues from the footprints on the ground. We should be able


    to find out who grandpa saw before he died, and this person is the murder."


    Hailey rolled her eyes at him, "I''m right to call you idiot. There are so many footprints here. Do you think


    it will be useful to collect them? Besides, someone came here to send the dead to the hospital before.


    It''s meaningless to kick the footprints out here."


    "Maybe we can find the footprints of strangers." Ellison added.


    Hailey nced at him and then looked at Eric, "Do you have monitors in your house?"


    Eric nodded, "But we can only monitor the outside, but not the inside."


    "Then check the surveince video first." Hailey said, "Let''s go to see if there are strangers or other


    people you know who came to your house during the period when the victim was sick."


    "Okay,e with me." Eric turned around and led the way for them.


    It was Ellison''s words that reminded Hailey of this. Through the surveince video, she checked the


    situation first. If there was an outsider, it meant that this person was highly suspicious; if there was no


    outsider, it meant that this suspect was a member of his family.


    The main monitor was in the study. After Eric took them to the study, he opened the monitor screen,


    which was the time he left with Richard and Ang in the morning.


    In the video, everything was normal outside the Gu''s house. The surveince video showed that there


    were passers-by or cars, and no strangers came in. What''s more, the servants went out to buy food


    and came back.


    The video didn''t stop until they drove Wayne to the hospital.


    After reading it, Hailey said, "I guess it''s the people in this house who irritated the dead."


    Ellison nodded in agreement with Hailey.


    Eric didn''t say anything. After thinking for a while, he said, "I have thought about this possibility, that is,


    grandpa was stimted by someone''s call."


    "Did you find his phone?" Hailey asked.


    Eric paused and shook his head, "No."


    Hailey immediately said, "Go to his room and have a look."


    "Okay."


    Then, Eric led them to Wayne''s room on the second floor.


    He walked to the door, took out the key and opened it. After letting Hailey in, he and Ellison went in.


    Although it was sunny outside, the curtain of the room was closed, so the light was not very good.


    Hailey turned on the light as soon as she entered.


    When the light was on, the room was much better.


    Hailey then carefully observed the room. She was called here on a date, so she didn''t have time to


    wear her special gloves. Therefore, she could only see it with her eyes, and didn''t dare to do anything


    with her hands.


    This was a habit she has developed over the years, because sometimes it was necessary to collect


    fingerprints on evidence to find evidence. If she touched evidence directly without gloves, it will cause a


    certain degree of interference in the process of fingerprint collection and increase the difficulty of work.


    Eric and Ellison could do nothing to help, so they just stood aside and looked at Hailey.


    The room was decorated simply. There were a bed, a bedside table, a wardrobe, and a desk. There


    were several books and a deskmp on the desk, and a piece of paper and a pen under the deskmp.


    Hailey stayed on the paper for two more seconds and didn''t find anything, because there was no word


    on it.


    Then she turned around and walked to the bed. The bed was tidy and there was nothing special. There


    was a cup on the bedside table, and there was half a ss of water in it. Hailey touched the cup with


    the back of her hand subconsciously. Well, it was cold.


    She looked away and saw the phone on the bedside table on the other side of the bed. She pointed at


    the phone and asked Eric. "Is this your grandfather''s usual phone?"


    Eric looked in the direction she pointed and nodded, "Yes."


    "Since his cell phone is here, then your assumption is excluded." Hailey concluded, "Now the rule is


    that no one elsees here except for this house. Your grandfather was not stimted by the phone


    call, which means that the suspect is in this house."


    Hearing this, Eric''s face darkened. "In other words, the suspect is among the servants at home,


    including Jarvis, Simon and Frank."


    "Hmm." Hailey pointed at her chin with her right index finger, which was her habit when investigating


    cases. She said, "In this case, the scope of our investigation will be much narrowed."


    Eric and Ellison nodded at the same time. The investigation range was not small at all. There were only


    two or three servants in total in the Gu family. In addition, Jarvis and Simon, there were only five or six


    people in total. It was easy to investigate.


    "The scope is small, but we don''t have evidence." Ellison voiced out his thoughts, "To be exact, we


    can''t find any evidence at all!"


    Ellison pointed out the difficulty of the whole case. First, there was no monitor in the yard of Gu family.


    Two, should we ask them face to face? Obviously, it didn''t work. It was like alerting the enemy.


    Besides, if the suspect didn''t admit it, what could he do to him without evidence?


    Hailey nodded thoughtfully, "Since we can''t find any clue at home, we can only look at the corpse to


    see if we can find some clues on it. I can''t make such a small case difficult, or how can I continue to


    work in the detective industry in the future?"


    When she said thest sentence, she took a distressed action.


    Hearing this, Eric said, "I''ll take you to the hospital."


    "Okay."


    Then the three of them left the house from the back door and rushed to the hospital.


    Eric didn''t want to drive, so he took Ellison''s car. Anyway, they had to go to the hospital, which was


    easier to save time.


    The reason why he was so eager to find out the truth was that the time is really short. When he went


    through the formalities today, he only said that Wayne''s body would stay in the hospital for two days. If


    it stayed for a long time, the rest of the family would definitely object.


    Therefore, he had to hurry up.
