593 Chapter 592
….
Holly stared blankly at Keira.
Her face was full of disbelief and confusion.
She even thought she was experiencing a hallucination.
She rubbed her eyes and looked again, but the person in front of her was still Keira!
Holly had tears in her eyes.
Keira hadn’t expected to run into Holly here either.
The little prude was staring at her, her eyes almost brimming with tears. Keira knew she couldn’t acknowledge Holly now, but she couldn’t bear lying to the latter either.
As she was struggling with herself, she heard the other officer ask, “Who reported the incident?”
Keira immediately snapped back to reality and said, “I did.”
Holly stared at her, clenching her fists. “Name.”
“Keera Olsen.”
Upon hearing that name, Holly’s hands trembled. “Keira?”
“Keera, with two E.”
Holly paused but still recorded it as such. Then, they conducted the routine inquiry with Keira. After getting the details, they saw the Olsen family’s surveillance video, which revealed Susan’s evidence of murder.
Susan had nothing to say in her defense.
Holly then asked Keira, “What was her motive for the crime?”
Keira frowned and suddenly said, “She was taking orders from someone else.”
At this, Holly blinked in surprise.
She immediately grabbed her pen. “Who is that person?”
“Someone called Fox. Her real name is Vera, and she’s currently living in the Martin residence.”
Holly asked, “Is there evidence?”
“Yes.”
Upon hearing that, Susan sneered. “What evidence could you possibly have?”
Keira looked at her. “Indeed, I have no evidence, but you should.”
Susan scoffed. “Even if I had any, why would I give it to you?”
Keira looked at her. “Because only by giving it to me can you survive.”
Susan was taken aback.
Keira went straight to the point. “You’ve been poisoned, haven’t you?”
Susan’s expression became panicked. “How do you know?”
“Since Jenkins mentioned calling the police, you’ve been very panicky, adamantly against it. Logically, even though you planned the murder, since no one was harmed, you won’t face the death penalty, but you seemed as if you were facing imminent death. Plus, how could a person like Fox trust someone like you for no reason?”
Susan wasn’t a particularly intelligent person, nor did she have any special talents. She was such a vain person; how could she be working for Fox willingly?
Unless Fox held some leverage or had control over Susan’s life!
Ellis’s medical report had been altered in the hospital, and Fox seemed quite familiar with the medical system. She had also had Uncle Olsen poisoned without anyone noticing…
Fox was an expert at using poison!
Therefore, Keira deduced that Susan was also poisoned.
If Fox wanted to keep control over Susan, it would be unlikely to poison Susan without providing an antidote, especially if Fox wanted Susan to do her bidding…
Then, the poison must require an antidote at regular intervals.
Keira thus inferred the truth!
Hearing that, Susan became completely dazed. She had never expected the usually reticent and seemingly inconspicuous “Keera” to be so clever. She had discerned the most critical thing based on just a few words!
Susan took a deep breath. “Since you already know, you should also know that I couldn’t tell you who Fox is!”
“No, your only chance of living is to tell us who Fox is.”
Susan blinked in confusion. “What do you mean?”
Keira squatted in front of her. “Shall we make a deal? You provide the evidence for us to arrest Fox, and I’ll put Fox and you in the same cell. That way, you’ll have a chance to make contact with her.”
Only by making contact with Fox could Susan get the antidote!
Susan’s pupils constricted. “Really?”
“Really.”
Susan hesitated.
Keira stood up, looking down at her. “I don’t know when you need your next dose, but if there’s still time to hesitate, you can take your time to think about it. I don’t mind…”
Susan clenched her fists tightly.
She stared relentlessly at Keira.
Tomorrow was the day the poison would activate, and she came here today to complete her task!
Now that she was caught, if she didn’t get the antidote tomorrow, she would die!
Susan panicked and looked at Keira. “Okay, I’ll tell you. I have evidence!”
She pulled out her mobile phone and said, “I have Fox’s contact information! Although Fox always clears everything from my phone after contacting me, I recorded our chat logs, and they are saved in the cloud!”
Keira’s eyes immediately lit up!
With that, they could charge Vera!
Once Vera was in jail, the Martin family could only rely on Keira. Given Scott’s nature, he wouldn’t want to make an enemy of the Olsen family.
In that way, wouldn’t this predicament be resolved?
Keira took Susan’s mobile phone, “Thank you!”
Susan stared at her. “I hope you’ll keep your word! Remember to keep me in the same cell as Vera when the time comes!”
Keira smiled. “I only said I’d put her in the same cell as you, but it seems I may have forgotten to tell you something.”
“What?”
“Before entering the cell, there seems to be a procedure, which is a body search, to prevent the criminal from bringing anything they shouldn’t into the cell…”
