Female Novel
Chapter 556
Perhaps, it was because her smile was quite sweet. The man initially had an impatient expressionon his face. After all, the surrounding situation was quite bad, making him irritable when someoneasked him a question.
However, when he turned around, he noticed a woman with a sweet appearance and anotherbeautiful, delicate, yet cool woman.
Hence, he immediately changed his attitude. He looked at them with a smile and then patientlyexplained, "I don't know either, but I heard that a life was taken."
"A life was taken?" Vera sucked in a breath of cold air. She was almost scared out of her wits.
Then, she glanced at Minerva and noticed that she didn't look too well either.
"Can you explain in detail?" Minerva pursed her pale lips and asked.
The man naturally nodded as a pretty woman had asked. "When we just arrived, the police hadalready cordoned off this place. We can only watch from afar and we can't go forward. However,there were not many people here when I came and I heard from others that the victim had suddenlydecided to commit suicide here. No one knows the details of this sudden situation either."
Minerva was speechless.
It sounded complicated and confusing.
"A sudden suicide?" The corner of Vera's lips twitched. She hugged Minerva's arm in fear. "Whydoes this sound so strange? Besides, we had just received that yesterday..."
"Thank you for your explanation. We understand now." Minerva suddenly interrupted Vera andturned her around. "Let's go back first. There are too many people here and we can't squeeze in
either."
Before Vera could react, Minerva pulled her back.
When they entered the elevator, Vera couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you? Why did yousuddenly interrupt me? Do you think that the death of this person is related to that dead rabbit?"
"I don't know." Minerva shook her head and her expression was a little cold. "However, it's best iffewer people know about what happened to us."
After all, no one would send a dead rabbit to them without any reason. It just happened the nightbefore, and now, someone had committed suicide early in the morning.
The two incidents seemed to have nothing to do with each other...
However, it was not that simple.
Since the time and location were so coincidental, how could there not be any connection?
Ding Dong...
The elevator door opened and Minerva walked to the door. Just as she was about to push the slidecover and stamp her fingerprint onto the door, she suddenly stopped.
That was because she found that the inner anti- theft door was actually open. At this time, she couldclearly see the scene inside of the house.novelbin
Minerva instantly felt a chill run down her entire body. She had clearly shut the door when she cameout just now.
Thinking of this, Minerva quickly stamped her fingerprint. She then opened the door and walked in.
Seeing that she was in a hurry, Vera quickly followed her in. Indeed, Minerva found out that therewere two pairs of shoes at the entryway.
Her expression changed and she walked in without taking off her shoes.
"Mommy, you're back?"
A childish voice rang out. Following the voice, Minerva looked over and saw that it was Beanie whohad brought out two cups of water from the kitchen. Two men in police uniforms were sitting on thesofa in the living room.
The two stood up as soon as they saw her.
"Hello, Miss Hanover. Since you weren't in the house, your child opened the door and let us in."
Looking at them, Minerva felt relieved. She initially thought that something had happened to Beanie.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
Since they addressed her as Miss Hanover, it was obvious that they were well-prepared.
After asking, Minerva glanced at Beanie and said with a smile, "Beanie, I would like to talk to thepolice officers privately. Can you go upstairs first?"
Beanie blinked his eyes and then nodded. He was about to turn around and go upstairs.
However, one of the officers said, "Miss Hanover, in order to ensure the authenticity of your words,we'd suggest that your child stays as we also have to query him."
Although the smile on Minerva's face was still polite, it became icy cold. She said gently, "Are youtwo police officers here to ask questions or to interrogate me?"
The two officer's expressions changed. They looked at each other and sighed, "It's not aninterrogation either. It is just to guarantee authenticity. Miss Hanover, I hope you can cooperate withus."
"Okay." Minerva waved at Beanie and motioned for him to come close to her. Vera was also feelinga little uneasy as he came to her side.
"What do you want to ask?"
"Don't be nervous. Perhaps, we were too serious just now and scared you. But most of us are likethis when we work. We have no malice. I just heard that you received a parcel last night. It was adead rabbit inside, wasn't it?"
Minerva did not deny it. She nodded her head and admitted it.
"Yes."
"So, Miss Hanover, do you know who sent that to you?"
"I don't know."
"You don't know?" One of the officers raised his voice by a little. "Have you ever offended anyone?For example, in work or in relationships?"
"When it comes to offending someone, you should ask the person to know if I've offended him ornot, right?" Minerva smiled faintly. "If you were to ask me, then I personally think that I have alwaysdealt with things politely. Hence, I shouldn't have offended anyone."
Standing next to Minerva, Vera thought to herself.
"How awesome..."
Her answer made the two police officers frown, but when they thought about it, they felt that shewas not wrong either. After all, it was a really subjective question. One could never judge a book byits cover, right?
"You are right, Miss Hanover. But I hope that you can think about it and see if there's anything youknow."
Minerva smiled, "I wonder how the police got to know of this matter. I didn't call the police, did I?Police officer, before you continue to ask me questions, I, the victim should know the progress ofthis case, right? I want to know, why did you come to my house and ask these questions? Is itbecause of the suicide case? Does the police suspect me?"
"Miss Hanover, you've misunderstood us. We aren't suspecting you. It just so happens that thedead person was the delivery guy. Hence, we thought that it was linked to your case."
Upon hearing this, Minerva's pupils dilated. "What did you say? The dead person was the deliveryperson?"
"Yes, we traced the surveillance video and found that he was the delivery person."
"How could it be?" Vera couldn't help voicing out at this time, "If it was he who delivered the parcel,why did he commit suicide this morning? I don't understand."
"That's why we came to you," the police officer also said helplessly.
Up to now, the whole thing had been very complicated and confusing.
Why did the delivery person commit suicide? Was he afraid of being discovered and then committedsuicide first? However, even if the fact that he sent the rabbit was discovered, committing suicidewas the last thing he should consider. In a situation like this, he would at most be warned. Or if theperson behind the scenes was found, he would not be blamed for anything.
Behind the scenes...
Did the mastermind do something to him then?
