NovelOnlineThe first person to lead the team was Karl, a good-looking, tall and handsman, who stepped into the room and walked straight
towards Jacqueline. He showed his police ID and said to other police officers present, "We are the Second Precinct Criminal
Investigation Detachment. From now on, we will take over the scene here." The voice was loud and clear.
He winked at the other officers, "Seal off the scene and collect evidence. Notify the coroner."
The rest of the police immediately divided the work. Sbegan to pull the cordon fence, sbegan to collect evidence, and
scleaned up the scene and took photos.
Joyce recognized that it was Karl, the detective who took over the case of Lauren for her last time, and she immediately shouted,
"Officer Karl, when | cback, Grandma had no breath, but her body was still warm, so the murderer hadn't gone far, so hurry up
and expand the search area."
Shelly rushed to Karl's side, "Officer, don't listen to her. My grandmother must have been killed by her. You hurry up and arrest
her."
Karl shot a cold glance at Shelly and swept her away with one arm, "It's not up to you to decide who the suspect is. Please do not
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinterfere with our work." He took out his walkie-talkie, "Attention, ground crew outside, expand the search area, the killer may be
nearby. Don't let go of the slightest hint."
Shelly shouted incredulously, "You believe her? Why?"
Karl returned with an expressionless face, "I'm just doing my work, not letting any useful information slip by."
He glanced at Joyce's handcuffed hands behind her back, and then at Jacqueline, the oldest person here, and asked, "What is the
deseased's name?"
"Stephanie," Jacqueline replied. "She is my mother-in-law, eighty-two years old."
"And what is she to you?" Karl pointed at Joyce, "If | remember correctly, your nis Joyce, right? The person involved in the
Lauren case last time."
Jacqueline froze and stammered, "She is my son's nominal wife."
Karl frowned, "A couple is a couple, what do you mean by nominally? The last tat the police station, | clearly remember that
she was registered as the wife of Luther. So Luther is your son and she is your daughter-in-law. The deceased is your mother-in-law,
right?"
"Yes." Jacqueline was annoyed. Where did such a rude little detective cfrom, not giving her any face? She was at least an
upper-class noblewoman.
Karl instructed another officer, "Uncuff Joyce, she can't be treated as a suspect yet until there's evidence."
"Yes." The police officer rushed forward to unlock Joyce's handcuffs.
Joyce rubbed her sore wrist and said to Karl, "Officer Karl, thanks a lot."
Karl didn't appreciate it, but pointed at Shelly and Jacqueline and said nonchalantly, "All those present are suspects, and are not
allowed to leave from now on, and all of them are to go back to the police station with us for questioning."
"What? We're suspects too? It's obvious she's the killer." Shelly was intensely upset.
"I killed Grandma? Are you out of your mind? What's my motive?" Joyce was really angry. She had been sad enough that her
grandmother had died, but she had to argue with these brainless idiots.
At this time, a small police officer, with a document running over, "Captain, this is a document found from under the bedside table
in front of the deceased. Perhaps the deceased had deliberately hidden it under the bedside table before she died."
Karl put on his gloves, took the file in one hand and took it out to look through it.

Shelly rushed forward to see what was written in the will.
When she got a good look, she screamed out loud in disbelief.
"Oh my God! Oh my God!"
