Chapter 669: 221: Peeling silk from the cocoon, key evidence! _3



“What time did you leave the house yesterday?” Viola Thompson asked.

“It was probably around 10 o’clock in the morning, I didn’t really pay attention to the exact time.”

Viola’s red lips parted slightly, “When you left, was Sophie Cooper at home? Was there any conflict between her and James?”

“She seemed to be at home,” Afra Gracen sank into her memories, “When I left, I heard her on the phone with someone, discussing what to eat for lunch. Anyway, when I left, there was nothing unusual between them, but I don’t know what happened after I was gone!”

Hearing this, Viola slightly furrowed her brow.

Why did Sylvia Thompson call Afra Gracen just before she left?

Could it be understood that she deliberately let Afra hear these words?

Thirty minutes later, Afra Gracen came out of the interrogation room. She was very nervous, “Young comrade, I’ve answered your questions seriously. You, your police station shouldn’t dig into my life deeply, should it?”

Viola Thompson had a calm expression, “Keep your phone available after you go back home. Don’t leave Capital City randomly, and we will contact you at any time.”

“Okay.” Afra Gracen nodded, “Young comrade, don’t worry, I will fully cooperate with your work! Can, can I go now?”

“Go ahead.”

Upon hearing Viola’s words, Afra felt a great weight lifted from her shoulders and hurriedly turned to leave.

Watching Afra’s receding figure, Ling walked to Viola’s side, “Miss Thompson, here is Afra Gracen’s personal information, have a look.”

Viola took Afra Gracen’s personal information from Ling.

After carefully reviewing it, Viola said, “Officer Kim, I’d like to see James’s body.”

“All right.” Ling nodded, “Please, come with me.”

James’s body was currently in the forensic autopsy room.

Although it was summer…

The forensic department was still quite chilling.

Ling led Viola over, “Captain, this is Miss Thompson.”

And then explained, “This is the same Miss Thompson who helped decipher the video last time.”

The Captain was an experienced forensic examiner with a kindly face. He had been in charge of Olivia Cooper’s case previously and had initially thought James was the murderer, never expecting such a big twist later on.

Therefore…

Viola had become somewhat of a legend in the department.

After all, the video she decoded was a problem even their technical department couldn’t solve. At that time, they were about to send the watch back to the original factory for handling.

Fortunately, Viola appeared.

But, why did Ling bring Viola to the forensic department today?

As a young girl…

Wasn’t she afraid of bad luck?

The forensic department was filled with bodies, mostly those of people who died mysterious deaths, so typically only those related to the case would visit.

“Miss Thompson, nice to meet you! I’ve heard a lot about you!” The Captain took off his gloves and shook hands with Viola.

He dealt with dead bodies on a daily basis, so it would be impolite to shake hands with gloves on.

Viola reached out and shook hands with the Captain, her expression calm, “You’re too kind, Captain.”

At this time, Ling spoke up, “Captain, Miss Thompson would like to see James’s body. Is it convenient now?”

Hearing that, the Captain’s eyes widened, seemingly surprised that Viola wanted to see the corpse.

Are the young girls of today really this bold?

“See the body?” The Captain asked uncertainly.

“Yes.” Ling nodded.

The Captain looked at Viola, “As long as Miss Thompson isn’t scared, we can do it at any time.”

“Please lead the way, Captain.”

The Captain continued, “Miss Thompson, James has more than twenty wounds all over his body, his face is hideous, and his appearance may not be as peaceful as you imagine, even frightening. Are you sure you’re mentally prepared?”

After all, even with her exceptional computer skills, Viola was still just a teenage girl.

Not to mention a teenage girl!

Many grown men would be afraid to look directly at the deceased!

Especially victims of gruesome homicide cases.

Having worked in the forensic department for years, the Captain had witnessed many family members of the deceased pass out after seeing the remains of their loved ones.

“Yes.” Viola nodded faintly, “Don’t worry.”

The Captain led the way up front.

Because of the strong air conditioning inside, as soon as the door of the autopsy room was opened, a gust of cold air blew in, carrying a faint strange smell.

After all, the autopsy room was where bodies were stored year-round, and with no ventilation, over time it had developed a distinct odor of decay.

The Captain, accustomed to dealing with corpses, had long become immune to the smell. But for Viola and Ling, the odor was still quite pungent, even through thick masks.
