He knew how to describe his mood. He felt that the cold and damp wind of London's winter and the fishy smell from the corpse hit his face together, as if he was forced to breathe in the sea.For Reed, at least there was someone who could help him carry the body this time, so he didn't have to continue to be watched by people around him. This was also a good thing, right?"I have to say, you probably have a good relationship with people who died of suffocation. You always meet these victims." It was still Jackson, and it was still the same familiar rhetoric. He felt like he was repeating his work on a previous day. He wondered if there would be more bodies of people who died of suffocation transported to him in the future?Well, it can be said that there is no need to be so pessimistic, because Reed has decided which dock to go to in the future to avoid encountering this weird incident again.He was really fed up with seeing a dead body every time he missed his daughter. This gave him

Chapter: Chapter 38
Originally, the case became an unsolved case. The details were so exquisite, and the traces were swept away very cleanly. The imitators were caught, but the real person was not caught. This shows the level of the murderer.In such a situation, the murderer was exposed in an inexplicable manner, and died after being exposed. It really made people with a little brain figure out what was going on.Especially the murderer was a 30-year-old strong man, who was at the peak of his life. It was even more strange that he died and exposed the record.Mia also felt it was very strange. For this case, she had not been to the scene in person, nor had she learned any details about the murder. The amount of information was too much, and of course there was no way to make any judgment.To be precise, let alone the case of Reverend Clement's death, she couldn't make an accurate judgment. Even the so-called murderer's death that happened now, she was not sure whether it was a real accident or a careful

"Hey, I'll help you." After wandering around the guest room for a long time, Derek finally threw away his shame and went to the kitchen to find Mia.

"Ding-ling-ling?" The door of the herbal medicine shop was pushed open, and the copper bell hanging on it made a pleasant sound.Mia looked up and said, "Hi, Susan."Wasn't the blonde woman who came in the brothel owner Susan who placed an order at their house?Due to occupational disease, Mia observed this Ms. Susan when they first met and got some information.This includes but is not limited to the fact that the other party should be an American, and an American with a good family background and considerable wealth, and definitely not the type of family that was rich before and went bankrupt later. It is a very strange thing for such a person to cross the ocean to run a business in a foreign country, especially in the UK, where there is no room for development, not to mention that her business is a brothel. It is really hard to imagine her purpose and experience.But this is not a problem that Mia needs to care about. She only cares about one thing, "Does it look like sales are goo

"Ah?" Derek was a little confused by what Anne said, and felt that there were more heads in front of him. What could happen to him? This kind of problem has happened before. Wouldn't it be enough to just lie down in the trench? At most, the accuracy is a little bad when shooting at the wooden warehouse, but there are so many people on the battlefield. As long as you don't deviate a few meters away, you can still hit people... "Officer Derek, you should stay here temporarily until you recover." Anne said worriedly, "Let Mia go to the police station to help ask for leave." Officer Derek was so seriously injured because of her daughter. Anne felt that no matter what, she couldn't drive him out at this time, otherwise it would be too ungrateful. How can she ask for help from others in the future?
