Chapter 2127
Owen's calm and emotionless eyes suddenly widened. The video showed that dark alley behind the club, where Elias, boss of the Southern Star Syndicate, was holding an underling on the ground, punching and kicking him.
Then Elias left the crime scene.
After he left, the subordinate was clearly still alive, even trying to get up from the ground.
At that moment, a shadow jumped down from the edge of the wall.
Ralph's gaze stayed fixed on Owen, noticing that the muscles around his eyes had become stiff.
The man in the video wasted no time. He stepped on the subordinate, picked up a stone, and smashed it on his head-once, twice, thrice....
The subordinate collapsed to the ground, head full of blood, now dead.
The surroundings were dimly lit, hiding the killer's face in the dark.
However, it seemed like even fate itself sided with justice, wanting to expose this heinous crime. The nightclub's neon sign suddenly changed its lights at that moment.
Although the light flickered for only a second, it coincidentally revealed the killer's face.
Owen's face, stained with blood, ghostly and sinister, was revealed. It was unmistakable.
"After we received this video, we immediately sent it to the tech department to analyze it. The results proved no signs of editing, and the person in the video is indeed you, Deputy Chief Hopkins."
Ralph's voice was firm and steady, each word like a sharp nail, pinning Owen together with the crime he committed. "Besides, we've compared your physical characteristics with the traces left at the crime scene, and the match was as high as 98%. Now, we have solid physical evidence and video evidence. Even without your confession, we can still charge you with intentional murder and convict you!"
The interrogation room was filled with deadly silence.
After a long while, Owen suddenly burst into wild laughter, his metal cuffs cracking against the table, making a piercing and eerie sound. "Yes, I killed him. I dealt the killing blow after Elias left and framed the murder on him. Didn't you already arrest me? Go ahead. Prosecute and convict me. I won't appeal."
"You are a Deputy Chief with no personal vendetta against the victim from the Southern Star, and you two have never been in contact. Why did you appear at the crime scene for no reason? Why did you climb over the wall and brutally murder that man? Why did you try to frame someone else? Did someone instruct you to do so?" Ralph questioned further.
But Owen calmly closed his eyes, refusing to speak another word no matter how the interrogation went.
The next morning, Christopher headed to the Iverson Group headquarters.
He swallowed a few dozen pills on the way. After all, his body had not fully recovered yet, and he could only rely on the medication if he did not want to be hospitalized.
In the wide, cold corridors of the building, Christopher walked toward the meeting room with Taylor by his side.
At this moment, Taylor's phone vibrated, and he immediately picked up the call.
Soon, his eyes widened in shock, and he hung up while trembling.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Taylor losing his composure, Christopher frowned and asked.
"Mr. Christopher, something bad has happened! Owen is controlled by the police now, and they wanted to prosecute him with the charge of murder!"
Christopher was stunned. "Murder? How come?"
"I heard someone provided evidence to the police, proving that Elias did not kill anyone. The killing blow was dealt by Owen! The entire crime was recorded. He could not argue his way out!"Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
The next second, Christopher's vision went black. A metallic taste rose in his throat, and his body lurched forward.
"Mr. Christopher!"
Bright red blood spurted from his mouth, staining his pale lips.
