Chapter 523: The Bodhisattva Benefiting Society
Upon entering the police station, Thea Shaw discovered where the problem lay.
Apple Hale’s husband and son were dead.
The foul smell Thea detected that afternoon probably emanated from them.
Because the deaths were so mysterious, the police took them to the hospital for an autopsy.
The report isn’t out yet, so they are first investigating for clues.
As Thea was involved in a conflict with Apple Hale’s husband at noon, she was understandably considered a suspect.
Even though no one reported it at the time, now that they’re dead, some videos taken by people have become direct evidence.
However, upon reviewing the footage, the police saw that Thea’s actions were out of moral duty, with no tricks involved.
Yet, upon seeing a long list of records detailing Thea’s frequent appearances at the station...
She’s quite a character!
Now Thea is at the police station for a routine investigation; you can’t simply say Apple Hale’s husband and son’s bizarre deaths were suicides—it’s unclear how the killer managed it.
That foul odor is impossible to ignore.
Overall, there aren’t any major suspicious points; merely some questioning of Thea’s decision to send Apple Hale to the hospital after hitting someone.
"What else could there be? Of course, I couldn’t stand it. Imagine her living such a miserable life, stuck with an abusive husband. As a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy, isn’t it natural to send her to the hospital for a check-up?"
Police: "..."
The reason seems legitimate.
But when Thea says it, there’s always a tone that’s hard to believe.
Currently, Apple Hale herself still remains the primary suspect; their suspicion over Thea’s sudden act of rescue isn’t too significant.
They’ve seen countless suspects with a retaliatory mindset post-domestic abuse.
Sometimes they can’t condemn the actions for being so heinous; there’s just no choice, leaving the police to sigh.
If it turns out the perpetrator is Apple Hale, they’ll at most strive for a reduced sentence for her.
Thea was released after the interrogation, late at night.
Another busy day.
Currently, Apple Hale is still under investigation; Thea can only return to the hotel first.
Fortunately, this time she hasn’t called Mr. Sutton; no one knows she’s made another heroic visit to the police station.
After returning to her hotel, Thea took another shower after a long day, and continued to ponder.
How did Apple Hale’s husband and son suddenly die?
Their appearances predicted at least two more years; it’s unclear if Apple Hale’s son wasn’t seen, but Apple was supposed to make a move two years later.
It couldn’t be that Thea’s appearance today triggered a butterfly effect; Apple Hale didn’t seem like she’d act.
Could the perpetrator be someone else?
But why target Apple Hale’s husband and son?
Thinking it over, Thea still felt the church was the most suspicious.
Because the church must be where Apple Hale had the most contact; the police should investigate it eventually.
Thinking of this, she decided to visit the church tomorrow, regardless.
Just as she was about to go to sleep, she opened her phone and discovered Landon Ford had posted a video today.
Upon seeing it, Thea almost threw her phone away.
Her nose started bleeding profusely.
This guy... is becoming more and more daring; Thea often feels like she’s watching softcore porn.
Although they’ve been intimately involved, it’s not to this bold extent, right?
Any random video or photo from this could ruin Landon’s reputation; he doesn’t seem afraid of Thea ending things and leaking this globally.
But then, people around the world might just consider Landon Ford as a benevolent blessing.
