Chapter 668: Marvel: Awakening the Little Universe, Chapter 362
……my ass!
"Amy Chloe refused to sign the body collection form, insisting that the deceased (Andrew Chloe) was not a gang member, and refused to recognize the significance."
"Since then, the body has been placed in a freezer in a forensic office in Brooklyn."
"A month ago, the 21st Precinct, which restarted the case, took the body away."
"……"
Gwen flipped the file to the end, then looked at Hawk, opened her mouth, having something she wanted to say, but feeling like she couldn't say anything.
Hawk helped Gwen say it.
"Are we very destined?"
"……"
Gwen rolled her eyes and said softly: "I know you have no feelings for Chloe, but try not to treat suffering as a joke."
Hawk, meeting Gwen's gentle, persuasive gaze, had the smile on his face disappear, responded, and stopped speaking, driving to the 21st Precinct.
Sitting in the sergeant's office, George, wearing a daylight ring, leaned against his chair, widened his eyes, looked at Hawk, and his tone was also somewhat unbelievable.
"You are Andrew Chloe's child?"
"Yes."
"Dad, you've already asked for the third time."
Gwen, standing to the side, said speechlessly, and then let the topic get on track as soon as possible: "Dad, you were the patrol officer for this case back then?"
"Yes."
"I remember it very clearly."
"That was the day after your birth baptism; I was out on the street with my patrol partner, received the information, and according to the precinct's requirements, found Amy Chloe and brought her back to the precinct to identify the body while accepting questioning."
"That was the first homicide case of my patrol career."
"And Amy Chloe also came to make trouble several times, so I have a very deep impression."
George glanced at his well-behaved daughter Gwen, then looked at Hawk, narrating the memory related to the Andrew Chloe case with a sense of recollection.
Since becoming a vampire, he found that his memory was much, much better than before.
"Amy Chloe never recognized the conclusions of Giorno and Bruce."
"Giorno and Bruce were the detectives in charge of this case at the time."
"Amy Chloe insisted that her husband was not a gang member, and she said that on the day of the incident, the convenience store manager also said that a patrol officer had chased those two gunmen."
"But this point was not in Giorno and Bruce's report."
"So Amy Chloe didn't recognize Giorno and Bruce's investigation and insisted on changing detectives to investigate."
"Then was it changed in the end?"
Gwen asked curiously.
George smiled.
"1995?"
"Change detectives?"
"How is that possible."
Gwen was speechless.
That's true.
In the nineties, that was the golden age for New York detectives to grow most wildly.
Hawk frowned and said: "Then did a patrol officer chase after them at the time?"
In his memory, there were indeed two patrol officers passing by at the time, and there was indeed a patrol officer who chased after them.
George glanced at Hawk.
"Yes!"
"This matter made quite a big noise."
"The sergeant at the time also asked about it and scolded Giorno and Bruce; at the time, there was indeed a patrol officer who went to chase those two gunmen, but didn't catch up."
"And that patrol officer didn't see clearly what the two gunmen looked like."
"Plus, at the time, that patrol officer asked Giorno and Bruce not to write another report, so the two didn't write this matter in the report."
"After the incident, the sergeant asked me to go find Amy Chloe to explain the situation."
"I went."
"But that house had already been sold, and Amy Chloe was nowhere to be found."
"Until——"
"A month ago!"
"……"
Hawk raised his eyebrows.
Gwen was also looking at her father without blinking.
George didn't keep them in suspense either.
"A month and a half ago, on my way home, I was stopped."
"Amy Chloe."
"She said she saw the news on the newspaper that we had eradicated the shoes and feet, and knew that I was now the sergeant of the 21st Precinct."
"Amy requested to restart the investigation into her husband's death case."
"But how could a case from another precinct be restarted just by saying so."
"I refused at first, so I told her that back then, that patrol officer was just afraid of trouble, so he didn't report it."
"As a result……"
"Amy Chloe told me that she had been threatened, and it was precisely because of this that she chose to move and sent her children to the church."
"Only……"
George, who said this, used an inexplicable look to look at Hawk again, his tone somewhat sighing: "I didn't expect that child to be you."
Hawk was already used to George's surprised look.
He shrugged his shoulders, his expression calm.
Gwen, sitting to the side, was listening intently, and pursued the questioning.
"Then what, did Mrs. Chloe tell you who she was threatened by?"
"Yes."
George withdrew his gaze, looked at Gwen, and nodded with a smile: "She said that after she refused to sign, before moving out of that house, she was followed and threatened by Bruce and that patrol officer."
Hawk raised his eyebrows.
Gwen widened her eyes.
"So, you chose to restart the investigation of this case?"
"I wanted to, but there was only Amy's testimony; I couldn't restart a homicide investigation just because of one person's testimony, especially when the investigation target was one of our own."
"Not to mention, Bruce sacrificed himself in an arrest operation nineteen years ago."
"That patrol officer also sacrificed himself in a fire that year."
"Under these circumstances, if I go to investigate them, even if I am the sergeant of the precinct, I will be scolded to death."
George shook his head with a helpless expression.
Once again.
He was just serious, not pedantic.
As a member who came up from the grassroots, no one knew better than him how big a storm an investigation targeting police officers would bring.
Especially two police officers and patrol officers who sacrificed themselves at their posts.
Let alone him, even if the General Headquarters sergeant wanted to restart the investigation into these two police officers and patrol officers, it would attract resistance.
The police union might even go on strike and protest because of this.
Hawk, listening to George's words, frowned.
"But you still restarted the investigation; since that's the case, it means you did grasp some evidence, right?"
"Yes."
George looked at Hawk and smiled slightly: "I saw Bruce."
Hawk raised his eyebrows.
Gwen blinked.
"Dad, didn't you say that Bruce died nineteen years ago?"
"Yes."
George nodded: "I even attended Bruce's funeral nineteen years ago."
While speaking.
George opened his drawer, took out a photo, and handed it to Hawk: "But a month ago, I saw Bruce in a vampire bar."
Hawk reached out and took it.
Gwen, sitting to the side, leaned over to Hawk's side.
