Chapter 291
You Hit My Heart
A large number of police officers rushed up to search around. There
were bodies everywhere. A dozen of the thugs had been killed.
"Captain, there's a female body here. Neck cut off.â A police officer
reported.
Karl was so shocked that his mind went blank. He shuddered and went
over to confirm, turning the body over, and luckily it wasn't Joyce.
He breathed a sigh of relief and realized that he was covered in sweat.
He shone a flashlight on the female body, "This is Georgia, I've seen
pictures of her. Killed with a slash to the throat, looks the same as the
two bodies in the warehouse, and the two we met on the road. Both
should have been silenced by one of their own."
"Captain, there are still a few bodies here. Although there are gunshots
in the chest, they are not fatal, and they were all finally killed by
someone slitting their throats!" The police officer went up to look over a
few more bodies, âThe bodies are still warmed, they were killed not
long ago. It shouldn't take more than a quarter of an hour. The killer
must be nearby. How about we start a search right away?"
Karl shook his head, "Too late, it seems that they were all killed by the
same person, he should be the mastermind behind everything. The
forest is so big, looking for him would be like looking for a needle in a
haystack. The most important thing right now is to find Luther and
Joyce, and since there are no bodies here, that means they are still
alive."
Karl dialed Luther's satellite phone. At the same time, he took out his
satellite locator and looked up their location.
Unfortunately, the team soon found Luther's satellite phone at the
scene, as well as the satellite locator.
"This must have been dropped accidentally when they were fighting
with the thugs. Several of the bodies were all hit by bullets in the right
chest, all in the same spot, so perhaps it was Joyce's work." Karl
analyzed. He remembered Joyce said that she was very accurate when
she shot. As for how accurate, he was now kind of primed to see.
"Go through the scene, don't miss anything, and find out where Joyce
and Luther went," Karl instructed, and everyone launched a carpet
search.
Karl also took a flashlight and poked around.
The scene was a mess, and he could almost restore it in his head, just
how intense the fight was here. His heart was deeply seized up, and he
did not know whether the two of them were well.
He searched and searched, and found that there was no longer a road
ahead, and it seemed to be a steep slope cliff.
And on the edge, however, were countless footprints.
It indicated that at least five or six people were gathered there at that
time.
Karl used a flashlight to shine down the steep slope. It was not really a
cliff. There was a slope, but it was very deep. At least where the
flashlight could shine, he still could not yet see the bottom.
A police officer said beside him, "Could it be that the two of them
jumped down the steep slope?"
Karl almost stopped his breath.
There were obvious footprints and traces of someone sliding down the
cliff, so it was very likely!
They were afraid that they had really leaped down the steep slope to
escape the attack of the criminals.
"Captain, what now?"
"Three stay here, three use climbing ropes and go down to find out
what is going on. The rest of you follow me and go around to the
bottom of the hill and continue the search." Karl tried his best to stay
calm and arranged everything.
"Yes." A group of police officers took orders and quickly launched their
operations.
"Joyce, Luther. May you be safe and sound.â
Karl took a deep breath and closed his eyes with a long sigh.
