“Are you mad at me?” The policeman sniffed and stopped, his face stern.
Allyce did not back down: “Mr police, I cooperate with your investigation, it is my duty as a citizen, and it is your duty to provide the public with law enforcement.
The police officer smiled, and there was a flash of embarrassment on his face.
The current situation, there is no direct or circumstantial evidence, the evidence Allyce killed someone, according to the theory of the presumption of innocence, do not have the freedom to arrest.
However, so far, several people have been questioned, or no leads, it is believed that the detention of Allyce forty-eight hours, grinding, to see if there may be further developments.
“If there are any questions after Mr. Policeman, you can contact me again, can I come now?”
Looking at the police officer’s expression, Allyce knew that they did not have the absolute power to stop her now.
The police officer listened to his words and left silently, representing acquiescence to his words.
Allyce was about to leave when the policeman suddenly called out to her, only in a better tone.
“Miss Allyce”.
“What else?” Allyce turned and looked at him.
“Don’t tell anyone about this for now, it’s still a confidential investigation”. The policeman’s voice was a little more sincere.
Allyce pondered for a moment, and a glimmer of understanding flashed under her eyes: “Understood”.
…
When Allyce returned to the room, everyone was there.
He walked in and saw Severo sitting smoking, his face expressionless, but Allyce somehow felt the anxiety emanating from his body.
The sound of the door opening startled those inside, and the first to come running was Beef.
As soon as he ran to the door, he pulled his two front legs towards Allyce.
Allyce bent down and stroked his head before entering.
Severo saw her coming, casually stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, turned his head and found that Neto still had the cigarette in his hand, picked it up and put it in the ashtray.
Neto looked inexplicably at Severo, who frowned slightly: “The smell of smoke is too much”.
Neto rolled his eyes, he didn’t like the smell of smoke, he too had just smoked.
Lucila saw Allyce enter, she already greeted, “Allyce, is something wrong?”
“Nothing, just a routine check-up. Allyce shook her head and said nothing about the police trying to stop her.
Seeing that Allyce was fine here, the rest of the people went back to their rooms to gather their things and prepare to return to the city.
No one had been allowed out all morning, and time had passed for fear of causing panic, so Allyce was released as soon as she left the police.
Allyce and Severo’s things are almost packed, and they don’t need to get anything else.
Allyce then walked over and sat down next to Severo, walked over to him and sniffed, “I obviously saw you smoking, how come I don’t smell smoke?”
“You want to smell smoke?” Severo reached out his hand and pulled her to him.
Allyce blinked: “I think I can smell it now …”
“No, make it …”
The rest of the words disappeared between tightly pressed lips.
After a long while, Severo pulled back a little and asked against the tip of his nose, “Do you smell that? Hmm?”
Allyce squirmed and pushed him away, “Boring!”
…
After finishing their things, the couple went downstairs together.
As it was already a weekend afternoon, there were many people leaving.
Severo pulled the suitcase with one hand and held Allyce with the other, his tall body blocking her side and occasionally blocking the rush of pedestrians by her.
When they reached the door, they were again met by Delahoz’s group, unfortunately.
“Allyce.
Coincidentally, this time, Elvira took the initiative to greet her.
Something was not right.
Allyce pursed her lips and smiled, “Mrs. Elvira”.
Such a rusty address caused a few moments of embarrassment to appear on the face of Elvira, who pretended to be familiar with it.
“I just saw her being taken away by the police, I was worried there was a case involved…. Now I’m relieved to see that you’re OK”.
Elvira declares amidst concern, eyes linger on Allyce’s face, a closer look will reveal that she is actually sizing Allyce up.
“What does Mrs. Elvira mean by this? I have just lost something not very valuable and the police came to see me to find out what happened, where the case is”.
As Allyce said the last sentence, she saw the policeman who interrogated her earlier come out of the room, so she deliberately turned up the volume on the last sentence.
The policeman obviously heard Allyce’s words and quickly looked this way.
Elvira had her back to the policemen, so she didn’t see them.
“I’m not worried about you, am I? Come back and see more when you have time, we’re relieved that you’re OK”.
As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she heard a serious voice behind her: “Mrs. Elvira, right? Please come with us.
The policeman showed his police card: “We expect you to cooperate with us”.
Elvira had no idea when the police approached, and her face suddenly turned black.
But in front of so many people, if he refused, this obviously wouldn’t work, and if he didn’t refuse, there was no guarantee that there would be bad rumours.
He couldn’t help looking at Eric.
Eric frowned, but was still willing to approach.
Allyce, of course, would not let Eric get close, and she turned her head to the police and smiled: “Elvira is a kind-hearted person, and she is certainly willing to cooperate with your investigation”.
At his words, the policeman nodded: “Thank you for your cooperation.
“You’re welcome …” Elvira held her breath to her throat and let it out forcefully.
Allyce hummed a little tune and returned to the car in a good mood, Severo rubbed the top of her hair, “How did you see I had a problem?”
“Who has a problem?” Allyce didn’t understand for a moment what Severo was referring to.
Severo sniffed, slightly dazed, and then spoke slowly: “Mrs. Elvira”.
“Huh?” Allyce rounded her eyes, she only had the temporary intention of finding some trouble for Elvira, how could she know what was wrong with Elvira.
Once he saw Allyce’s expression, Severo understood what he was thinking, not realising that he hadn’t found anything wrong at all.
Only the way she was looking was … so stupid that it was kind of endearing.
Severo stretched out his long finger and put it to his forehead: “Wait for the news, in less than a week there will be results.
After saying that, Severo laughed in a high-flown manner.
“You mean … that Linda’s death has something to do with Elvira?” Allyce didn’t glare this time, but frowned sharply, “But what’s Elvira’s motive?”
Severo let Allyce think about it and did not tell him why.
It wasn’t until he returned to Bay on the Cloud that Severo took a phone call and hurried back to the office, Allyce was still thinking about it.
