Chapter 1137
You Hit My Heart
Ms. Armstrong, who had treated her well since she was a child, was
dead?
She suddenly thought of something
She seemed to have heard of such a thing from the TV.
âThis morning, on the shallows in the downstream of the municipal
reservoir the body of a female was found. She was about sixty years
old, five feet six, and her identity remained unknown. The police
believed she might have fell into the water due to her loss of footing. If
you have any information, please contact the Capital Police
Department in time."
At that time, she only saw a mosaic body covered with a white cloth,
lying on the shore.
It turned out that the deceased turned out to be Ms. Armstrong.
"How did Ms. Armstrong die?" Joyce was sad and still she forced
herself to suppress the emotion to ask.
Juanita gave a general account of the events.
And she said, âAnyway, Ms. Armstrong insisted that she should talk to
Luther that night. I asked Karl to help me fix the security cameras
leading to the back garden. It clearly shows that Ms. Armstrong and
Luther went to the back garden. I don't think Karl was looking for Luther
for anything other than that."
Joyce rested her chin and fell into deep thought.
A few moments later, she shook her head, âI don't believe that Ms.
Armstrong would have lost her footing. She's not a child."
"Yeah, that's why I asked Karl to take the case, he said he'd investigate
it himself and then he'd tell you. I didn't realize he hadn't told you.
Could it be that he forgot?" Juanita was also surprised.
Joyce shook her head and didn't say anything.
How was Karl? Karl was the most meticulous detective she had ever
seen!
How could he forget something so important?
It was unless, of course, he had a reason not to tell her.
What would it be?
"Oh, yeah, I brought my briefcase out today, and there's my laptop
inside." Juanita, as if she had suddenly remembered something, turned
around and brought the briefcase on the sofa over, "And I have the
video of Luther going to the back garden with Ms. Armstrong at that
time. Do you want to see it?"
"Hmm." Joyce immediately nodded her head.
"Wait a minute!"
Juanita opened her computer, found the folder, clicked on the video,
and then turned the display to Joyce.
"Originally this camera was broken. Karl got their tech department to
restore it and he sent a copy to me. After Ms. Armstrong met Luther
that night, he disappeared and he never returned to the party.â
"So, Luther was the last person to see Ms. Armstrong?" Joyce asked as
she watched the video.
âNot sure, at least that's what the video looks like." Juanita shrugged.
Joyce stared intently at the picture.
Luther went to the back garden first, and he seemed just normal.
Ms. Armstrong was to go to the back garden later.
She walked, pulled something out of her pocket and opened it to look at
it, and then she put it back in her pocket. She then reached the back
garden. She, too, looked just normal.
"Wait."
Joyce suddenly shouted, "Can you rewind a bit? I want to see what Ms.
Armstrong is holding."
"Oh." Juanita rewound the camera back slowly until Ms. Armstrong took
a red cloth bag out of her pocket.
"Right here, slow down. Let me have a look."
Joyce took the mouse from Juanita and played the picture over frame
by frame in slow motion.
She could see clearly Ms. Armstrong taking a silver pendant out of a
red bag.
She hit the pause button in a hurry.
This was...
