Chapter 576
You Hit My Heart
Karl took a few sips of the soup and continued.
"I remember you mentioning that it was Christian who told you that
Ricky had rented the awm sniper rifle from the black market. Can you
find Christian again and ask him to help find the gun and buy it? I'l
pay."
"Buy it? I bet it's expensive, and because it's restricted to use and can't
be circulated, the price would only be jacked up even higher.â Joyce
raised her eyebrows in disbelief. Even Ricky only rented the gun, he
wanted to buy it.
âIt doesn't matter. You don't have to worry about the money." Karl was
not very concerned about it though.
Joyce staggered inwardly. So this was what a perfect combination of
wealth and power should be like? Not only could they use public power
at will, but they could also put out a large sum of money at any time.
She was not clear what Christian's purpose was, whether he was a
friend or now, and even whether he could be trusted. And she owed
Christian so much that she had no idea what she would give in the
future to pay him back.
However, Karl did so much for her. No matter how difficult it would be,
she had to overcome them herself.
Just asking Christian for help, she certainly could do it!
"I certainly have a reason. At the time you sniped Ricky in the clock
tower, he was wounded, and I thought that somewhere on the gun
there might be a bloodstain left by him. Blood is quite a useful tool.
Even if it was wiped clean, and no matter how long it has been, we can
still get the DNA from it. If we do get his DNA, we will have obtained
solid evidence.â
"We will take down Ricky, and Charlotte loses her reputation. If she is
no longer protected as the daughter of the Heath family, we will be
easily unmasking her in the future.â Joyce continued from Karl's words
and smiled coldly.
The smile was demonic, cold, and both good and evil.
Karl, who was sitting across the table, was also stunned.
He cleared his throat unnaturally, "Yes, you're right.â
"I always suspected something was wrong with Rodney's death. He
was more like being pushed down the stairs. After we dealt with Ricky
and Charlotte, I'll have no impediment to finding out anything else.â
"Good. I don't believe Mr. Heath will fall to his death either. Obviously
he was just so lively that afternoon.â Joyce was also suspicious.
"We can deal with one thing at a time. Let's take care of the immediate
ones first and try to make a breakthrough.â Karl had a feeling that with
this breakthrough, many things might be solved.
After all, there were still so many unanswered questions, and it was still
unknown who killed Stephanie and what could be the cause of her
death.
When more and more mysteries were piled up, he just felt that he was
getting closer and closer to the truth.
"Well, thank you. Always supporting me." Joyce truly appreciated, "I'm
sorry. Actually these are my personal matters. And yet I got you
involved ..."
"Stop it. If you say that, I'm afraid I can't even finish this meal.â Karl
smiled lightly.
"Hmm. No more talk." Joyce would agree.
At that moment, Karl's cell phone suddenly rang. He immediately
frowned and quickly answered it, "What's wrong?"
"Okay, I got it, I am just across the street, and I'll be right back."
After hanging up the phone, Karl stood up and said to Joyce, "Sorry,
still can't get to finish the lunch. There's something going on at the
station. There's a murder, I need to be right over.â
âIt's okay, you go ahead and get busy.â Joyce smiled and waved her
hand, "Get going, I'll pay the bill."
"Okay, next time I'll treat you." As Karl spoke, he was already walking to
the door.
Opening the door, he quickly disappeared from her sight.
