Chapter 2993

Brand took the doll from Miss Richie's hand. He saw the umbrella she was clutching tightly, naturally knowing this was Schiller's meaning, so he sighed, beckoned to Miss Richie, and let her follow him.

They went to the previous soul-summoning scene. There were some raw materials left, just enough to do a soul-summoning ritual again.

Just when they were about to start, Schiller returned. Brand seemed puzzled why he appeared here. Schiller shook his head and didn't say much, signaling him to start quickly.

After the soul-summoning ritual started, the light of the runes gradually brightened, and a transparent phantom appeared in the center of the magic circle.

Miss Richie immediately let out a sharp cry. She rushed over, wanting to hug her sister, but failed, because that was just a phantom of a soul, with no physical body at all.

The phantom of the soul was attracted by the doll and slowly bent down to pick up the doll, but her fingers passed through the fabric. At this moment, the soul suddenly woke up, seeming to realize that she was already dead.

She just wanted to let out a resentful cry, but saw Miss Richie falling in front of her. Brand sighed and said: "Hello, Madam, we called you back to ask you some things."

The phantom didn't answer, just reached out to help her sister up. At this moment, Miss Richie finally became spirited. She stood up, wiped away her tears, looked at her sister who was very similar to her, and said: "Long time no see, Mana. I'm very sorry, but you are already dead. We conducted a soul-summoning ritual and called you back actually to know how you died. Did that damn bastard kill you?!"

The phantom seemed to recall the pain when she died, and her expression became ferocious again because of resentment. Blood began to flow continuously from her nose and mouth, almost drowning the entire room.

Brand immediately began to appease the resentful soul, and the phantom calmed down again. She suddenly touched Miss Richie's forehead with one hand. Miss Richie let out a painful scream, rolled her eyes, and fainted.

The phantom soon dissipated. When Miss Richie stood up again, she was tearful. She trembled, never appearing so weak, constantly rubbing her arms, as if very cold.

"Did you see how your sister died?"

"He gave her anesthetic, then put her into the bathtub, and she... she was drowned like this..."

Miss Richie cried loudly, hugging the doll on the ground tightly. After about ten minutes, Brand helped the weak Miss Richie to the office.

After her emotions calmed down, she opened her mouth and said: "My sister discovered their collusion. She couldn't accept that her husband was this kind of person, but she decided to expose them and avenge those children."

"But God didn't stand on her side. Something went wrong, and that damn bastard discovered her intention, so he killed her like that, making this into a cold case, never to see the light of day again."

"However, she did collect some evidence. In order to prevent the evidence from being destroyed, she hid the evidence. At that time, she had a premonition that things were not good, so she left a backup, and before she died, she guided another person to discover this evidence."

"Another person? Who?" Schiller asked.

"A worker from the Wardraid construction engineering team. In my sister's memory, he was a person with a strong sense of justice. More importantly, he once acted bravely to save a child who fell into the water. My sister trusted him very much."

Schiller thought of the worker's corpse he and Pamela dug out under the land of the primary school and middle school ruins.

"It was ten years ago, right?"

"Yes, in my sister's memory, she succeeded. That worker should have seen the evidence, but later my sister died, so I don't know if he kept the evidence well."

"He might already be dead." Schiller said.

Up to now, all the clues were connected.

Ten years ago, Nigma committed the Bufa case for revenge, was investigated by Edward, and because he was worried that the matter would be exposed, he hired the Wardraid engineering team to demolish the middle school and primary school departments of the Bolokin community.

The wife of the manager of the Wardraid engineering team discovered the crime he committed of abusing children, silently collected evidence, but was careless and was killed by Bob.

And in order to let this crime be exposed to the world and make the murderer receive the punishment he deserved, Bob's wife hid the evidence somewhere and guided a worker to discover them.

This worker felt very scared after discovering the evidence, lived in fear all day, and might have been investigating in secret, returning to the ruins of the middle school and primary school departments on a certain day four years ago, but was killed there.

And the criminals who discovered that someone was still investigating this matter thought that their demolition of the middle school and primary school departments was not thorough enough, so they carried out a second demolition of the building ruins four years ago.

It might also be this incident that stimulated them, making them feel that nowhere was safe and there were people who knew the truth everywhere, so they started crazy silencing.

But at that time, the situation in Cat Getan was already much better than ten years ago. It was not so easy to kill people at will and dump corpses on the street, so they built a crematorium in the Bolokin community, specifically used to destroy corpses and eliminate traces.

Just recently, Miss Richie, who had been investigating the truth of her sister's death, entered their field of vision. They wanted to send Miss Richie in just like sending Edward to a mental hospital. So, they found Schiller.

But Schiller felt that Williams choosing the resort in that place shouldn't just be aimed at himself. He suspected that Williams himself was also dumping corpses.

Because currently all the people who knew the truth were centered around Bob and Nigma, Williams seemed to be out of it.

But in reality, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Williams's crimes must have been discovered by others, it's just that he might be the most powerful of the three, and all the people who knew the truth were silenced by him.

And it might be out of precaution against the other two people, Williams didn't take the path of destroying corpses and eliminating traces like the other two, but opened a new track himself. Schiller suspected that he opened a resort by the lake, possibly just to throw corpses into the lake.

Actually, in this weather, throwing corpses into the water is really a good choice. On one hand, it's cooler by the water, and throwing corpses is not easy to get heatstroke. On the other hand, as long as it's handled properly, the corpses sunk into the lake have no smell and are not easy to be discovered.

However, he might not have expected that the lake was almost full.

Of course, actually, the essence might be because he didn't expect that the aliens from the Guardians of the Galaxy wouldn't reason with him at all, saying they would make trouble and really making trouble, which disrupted his series of plans later, exposing himself instead.

After getting clues from Miss Richie, Schiller felt that the worker who found the evidence guided by Bob's wife shouldn't have lost the evidence, and it was very likely hidden in another place.

Because his behavior was very strange. Ten years ago, he didn't call the police, which was completely understandable. At that time, the police in the Cat Getan Police Department couldn't take care of themselves. After calling the police, the better result was no result, and the worse result might be dragging himself in.

But four years ago, the situation had improved. The Cat Getan Police Department established extremely strong prestige, and James Gordon's name was also sung in Cat Getan. Everyone knew he hated evil as a foe. As long as the collected evidence was handed over to Gordon, the case would be solved sooner or later.

In that case, he should have gone to the police station, not the ruins of the middle school and primary school departments. What did he go there for?

Schiller felt that this should be related to the deeper secret he speculated. That mountain didn't seem that simple.

At this time, Miss Richie had already picked up the umbrella. Schiller and Brand both looked at her. Miss Richie gritted her teeth and said: "I will make that bastard pay the price! I will let him experience my sister's pain!"

After speaking, she rushed out. Brand looked at Schiller. Schiller shook his head and said: "She has a sense of proportion, she won't kill him."

Although he said so, Schiller still followed behind her. Miss Richie gradually calmed down. She said: "Do you think I should hand him over to the police?"

"Do you think the police can sanction him?"

"I have no evidence." Miss Richie said: "He didn't let me see the body, nor did he leave any evidence, and ten years have passed, I'm afraid..."

"Actually we have evidence. Something can definitely be found in the air-raid shelter that once held us, but we cannot reveal the evidence at this time, because in this way, some of them can push the crimes on one of them."

"For example, if we let the children's bones see the light of day now, there will definitely be public indignation. The Cat Getan Police Department will face great pressure, and someone's evidence will be sent to them."

"If they don't make it public, someone will incite the masses, saying they are shielding. Once they make it public, everyone's vision will be drawn to this one person, and others can perfectly hide and escape."

"Yes, this scapegoat pushed out might be your enemy, that is, your sister's husband, but other accomplices will be at large. Is this what you hope to see?"

Miss Richie shook her head.

"And if the scapegoat pushed out is a dead person, then things are even simpler. Dead people cannot refute, and people will also feel that death is the greatest punishment for him. The degree of attention to this case will definitely decrease. Now do you still hope to kill Bob?"

Miss Richie sighed and said: "I understand what you mean. Even if you have already locked the target and have certain evidence, you cannot immediately arrest or kill one of them, because this way other murderers will take the opportunity to escape."

"Not just me, the police are always like this. In your impression, the police might always be procrastinating and not doing anything, clearly having evidence but not arresting people, and still dealing with those murderers. The reason is mostly like this." Schiller answered.

"Too complicated." Miss Richie knocked on her head and then said: "I'm not a smart person. You tell me what to do, and I'll do it."

"Very good, Miss. I am now more and more glad that I helped you. You can go find Bob, and you can even tie him up, but don't do anything to him. Ensure he is alive, okay?"

Miss Richie squeezed the umbrella tightly and nodded. When Schiller turned and left, she asked: "What are you going to do?"

"Investigate other clues. I will contact you after dawn. If there are no accidents, it will be clear tomorrow."
