"Comrade, the two of us have only one child in our lives. It's killing us two to watch her die... We have
never done anything evil in our lives, and we have taught Bonnie to be a good person since she was a
child. Why does such a thing happen to her? God is really blind! "
Mrs. Gu tried her best to hold Arthur's hand tightly. She had cried too much to shed any tears. When
she spoke, her voice sounded hoarse and desolate.
Mr. Gu stood aside silently, with the last glimmer of life in his old and turbid eyes. He said in a trembling
voice, "My wife was right. Bonnie is gone. How can we live in the future?"
Arthur's hand was scratched a few bruises by Mrs. Gu. The brocade flag under his armpit suddenly
seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, so heavy that he could not lift it.
After a long while, Arthur said awkwardly, "Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu don't worry. We will find the murderer."
Mrs. Gu's hand was so weak that it seemed that all her life force had been sucked out. She stared at
Arthur stiffly, which made him a little flustered and unnaturally avoid eye contact.
"Even if you find the murderer and tear him into pieces, Bonnie won't come back." Mrs. Gu murmured.
Arthur didn't know what to say, so he stood there silently. The forensic expert asked someone to take
the two elders down for a record. After the two elders left, the originally depressing air seemed to be a
little relaxed.
Arthur took out a cigarette and lit it. He lowered his eyebrows and asked coldly, "What's wrong with the
autopsy?"
The legal examiner's surname was Qin, the chief of the Forensic Department. Smoking was prohibited
in the dissecting room, but the chief didn't stop them. In their profession, sometimes it was not only
physical fatigue, but also mental pressure, such as Bonnie's parents. They had been good people for a
lifetime. They didn't steal or rob, who could be regarded as good people in others' eyes, but God would
not favor them because of this.
Bettina was right. Sometimes living was an original sin.
Mr. Qin handed the freshly printed corpse examination report to Arthur, "She died of mechanical
suffocation. She should have been strangled to death by someone. Judging from the scars on her
neck, it should be something like a soft silk scarf. There are no other scars on her body, but there are
sperm in her vagina. She should have been raped before she died."
"Bastard!" Arthur's eyes were red and he almost blurted it out. Probably because he was smoking, he
said in a particularly low voice, "She is only 21 years old. How can these beasts do that?"
Mr. Qin didn't say anything. His profession demanded that he often dealt with dead people. However,
even though he was used to life and death, he still couldn't get used to this. She should live in the
scorching sun, enjoying her life, but unfortunately, she could no longer do it.
The atmosphere was a little embarrassing for a moment. After a while, the walkie-talkie in Arthur's
trouser pocket suddenly rang, and then came the voice of Bettina.
"Boss, we have found the murderer!"
Hearing this, Arthur was stunned. He grabbed the walkie talkie almost reflexively and pressed the
button on it with his trembling hand. "Where are you?"
"There are two people in an abandoned factory in the suburbs, but both of them are dead."
Arthur's face darkened, "Cut the crap. Inform everyone to rush to the scene."
After saying that, Arthur immediately raised his eyes and said, "Mr. Qin, let's go to the scene!"
Mr. Qin had already prepared the toolbox. Arthur looked down at the flag and put it on the table
casually. "I'll put it here first."
He felt too ashamed to give it to Aron's parents. After all, even if there was a lot of beautiful words
written on it, it would not bring back a living life.
When the two of them came out of the dissecting room, Arthur saw that Carlos was still standing there.
He waved at Mr. Qin and then walked towards Carlos.
"Mr. Carlos, the body of the murderer has been found," Arthur pressed on Carlos' shoulder, ignoring the
man's red and swollen eyes hidden in the half dark shadow. "Are you going to the scene with us?"
Clenching his fingers tightly, Carlos answered, "Yes."
"Let's go. I'll drive. You take my car."
He was really worried about Carlos' situation. He was afraid that he would be in trouble even if he
drove. Carlos didn't refuse him. All his strength was drawn out, except for a little hatred.
Half an hour later.
More than a dozen police cars roared and stopped in front of an abandoned factory building. The
cordon had been pulled up around. As soon as they entered the gate, they saw two corpses were
picked up on the flagpole behind the factory building. Since they were dead, the policemen who arrived
first were afraid of destroying the scene, so the corpses were not put down.
They also had their own selfish motives. Even though they knew that it was useless, they still wanted to
take this as a revenge for the evildoer, so as to make people feel better.
Dozens of people stood in a circle in front of the flagpole. When Arthur came with Carlos, the crowd
dodged automatically. With a cigarette in his mouth, Arthur was still limping. He looked at the corpses
on the flagpole and said, "Put the corpses down first. Hurry up."
As soon as he gave the order, the police who had been watching began to move. They knew their
identity. Even if they had a deep grudge against the dead, and even if the murderers in front of them
were all evils, they had to do their own job dutifully.
Sometimes, they had to hide their joy and sorrow under the uniform.
Everyone started to move, and even Arthur was looking around. Only Carlos, who was standing there
alone, calmed down a little bit after the eruption of emotions in his chest.
He didn't know how long he had been standing there like an outsider until Cassandra came over and
patted him on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, Carlos."
She said sorry because she couldn't tell whether Aron died for her or for Carlos.
Carlos' throat moved slightly, like a traveler who had traveled a long way. After going through hundreds
of tribulations and hardships, he finally found the last oasis.
"It's the first time that I've fallen in love with someone since I was born. It's the first time that I want to
stay with someone..." Carlos' voice trembled, and he raised his dark eyes. "I'm waiting for her there. I'm
afraid that she won't come, and I've ordered a cake, and... But I will never see her again. "
His last sentence, wrapped in a little despair, hit Cassandra's heart hard.
Cassandra's heart trembled. She took a few deep breaths and said, "Don't worry. I will revenge for you.
Even if I have to kill and set fire, I will revenge for you. "
