Chapter 575

When Joyce finished.

Karl held his jaw in thought for a moment before nodding gently, "Yes,

you've thought it through quite well."

"Well, I will keep an eye on Charlotte these days. We still need a plan

for it and there are not many days left. We must not make any

mistakes." Joyce returned.

At that moment, the waiter knocked on the door and brought in the

meal. Two exquisite stir-fried dishes, one stewpot, and two portions of

mixed grain rice. It was neatly arranged in front of them.

After the waiter left, Karl first gave Joyce a piece of tofu.

"At this restaurant, tofu is a signature dish. It tastes delicate and the

soup is tasty. You try it."

"Hmm. These are the dishes the waiter recommended.” She took a few

bites and it was really good, "It's delicious."

"By the way, are you busy? Are you in a hurry to go back to work?" She

asked as she gave him a bowl of soup.

Every time Karl had no time for lunch, and he often had just a sandwich

and barely managed to get by.

"Today is okay. I promise I can finish the meal.” Karl smiled, "I just

thought about it. Besides exposing Charlotte's private affair, our next

focus should be on the murder of Thomas. When Charlotte's private life

was exposed, her reputation was in tatters, and that's when the murder

of Thomas should be brought to the table. The crime of intentional

homicide and obstruction of justice, even if the military district steps in,

they cannot protect Ricky."

"So you mean... Even if we find evidence of Thomas's murder, we can't

get Charlotte?" Joyce's brow furrowed.

"The odds are, Ricky will definitely take the blame. He just has to bite

the bullet and say that he planned it alone, for the sake of Charlotte's

safety, and that all the actions had nothing to do with Charlotte. There's

no way we can find Charlotte guilty of anything, even as an accessory."

Karl shrugged his shoulders, his face regretful.

“There's no way around it, the results are obvious. Sometimes we know

who the Killer is, but we can't bring them to justice.” He let out a sigh.

“I understand." Although she felt disappointed, she knew it was just the

case.

The most important thing right now was to take the first step.

They still got a lot of time, and step by step, there would be a day when

Charlotte would pay for what she did.

“The difficulty is that it's not easy to find out anything about the murder

of Thomas and get any solid evidence in a short time. At least for now I

have no breakthrough, and it's impossible to sit and wait for them to

reveal themselves." Karl had lost all his appetite, and only took a few

bites casually.

"Yes. After all, they just lost control last night. By the way, will Ricky

notice that they were drugged?" Joyce was worried. After all, she had

been drugged herself and the feeling was strong and fresh in her

memory.

If Ricky sensed that he had been drugged, for one thing he would

certainly be more cautious, and for another he would certainly turn

around and find out what happened.

"No, firstly the drug is completely different and secondly the dose is

very small. I used it just to help them a bit. If they didn't already have

the desire, such a small dose would not have contributed.” Karl knew

her concerns and said with certainty, “The dose and effect of the drugs

used have been measured in detail by the Office for the Elimination of

Pornography.”

Joyce gave a wry smile. He was indeed a professional. He even

studied the dose and effect of such medicine.

“Is there anything else I can do to help with the Thomas case?" She

asked again.

"Yes."
