C6 Doubt on the Road Make Me Feel That the Case Have a Trick in Mind

The fact that there was no one around in Greenbird Bay right now was proof of the success of our live broadcast: Because, other than the Moloch Robot, who was on duty, everyone else was comfortably lying on their Eloi Access Chair, watching these bizarre virtual shows.

Of course, the only people who remained on the street were the old men with empty eyes. Eloi Company claimed that there were certain conditions to connect to the virtual world, and those who were older could not endure the stimulation due to the lack of brain activity, so they could not experience those dazzling worlds.

However, I think that if they were an older person, no one would be interested in some Emma or a star like Homer right?

"Do you find their lives interesting?" To fill in the boredom of this phase, I blurted out.

"They? Who do you mean? "

"Anyone is fine, these Bionic Human, or these elderly people who are unable to access the program." "Or do you think we're having fun?"

"I don't understand what you mean." The Ms Mistie's attention was mostly on her father's case. And the director in my ear was cursing me — what nonsense? Our Access Rate is already at a new high, continue to ask her about Emma.

"Access Rate …" I grunted. This may be one of the reasons why life is so meaningless to me. My job as a live broadcast is just to increase the number of Access Rate — the audience will be able to access the programs through the Eloi chair. I really don't know why a program with high level Access Rate would receive such a large amount of investment from the enterprise, but... This is just a game for rich people, there's no need for me to care so much …

"Ms Mistie, we are almost there. According to what you said, we are at your former residence." I parked in front of what looked like a nice apartment.

"That was our previous residence," Ms Mistie said as she looked at him, "I remember clearly, that afternoon was the beginning of my nightmare."

"Alright, please do not be too distracted. "Why don't you tell us what it is." I looked at the messages on the screen, from which I could roughly guess what had happened. "According to the media, Ms. Emma said that she wanted to go out and relax at 2pm that day. Coincidentally, Ms. Emma was renting a hotel nearby during that period of time."

"That's right. Furthermore, it's the Double Day break, so no one on the street will be able to recognize Emma."

"You're right." And according to our investigations, your father, Allen, left the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest at around two o'clock in the morning? "

"At two-fifteen, he goes shopping every Saturday. Sleep until two in the afternoon, then take a few minutes to clean up, so it should be a quarter past two. "

"Very good. At around five in the afternoon, the patrolling Bionic Human s discovered your father's corpse."

"Floating on the Greenbird Bay." Ms Mistie looked expressionless, but I could see a hint of despair in her eyes.

"So what happened between the three hours? According to what Lady Emma said later on, she came to the Greenbird Bay to relax by herself, and then met your father at around two-thirty. Because he was a stranger that he had never seen before, he did not pay much attention to him. But then your father began to do something rude to her. "

After a moment of silence, I heard Mistie say, "And then?"

"'Out of self-protection' — These are the Miss Emma's words. For the sake of self-protection, Emma and your father had some physical conflicts, and in the end, they accidentally pushed him into the water of the Greenbird Bay. "

"Very good, then what?"

I felt her aggressive tone, "And then... Emma claimed that he was very nervous, but he never thought that your father couldn't swim, so he ran back to the hotel. and didn't call the police or tell anyone, so the result was... The result was your father drowned, and the corpse floating on top of the Greenbird Bay was discovered by the Bionic Human at around five o'clock. "

"You're very accurate — I mean according to the media. That's very accurate." The Ms Mistie didn't seem to be in a hurry to defend her father.

"This incident was ultimately judged to be an overdefense, and Miss Emma was only sentenced to three months in prison under the VIP Protection Act. The sentence was suspended for three months. "Moreover …" "And in three days, the Miss Emma will be out of prison."

"Moreover," the Ms Mistie added for me, "Once the Miss Emma has been released from prison, no one is allowed to appeal based on this matter. In other words, the truth behind this case is not important anymore. Even if there is any decisive evidence, or even if it is proven that Miss Emma is deliberately killing people, as long as three days passed, Miss Emma will not be able to receive the punishment that she deserves. "

I don't need to look at the comment section to know that the curses from the higher ups were earth-shattering. I can understand that, after all, Lady Emma was once the goddess of many people's dreams. Even if she had been in prison for three months, it wouldn't be able to weaken her charm at all. Of course, maybe they were lucky for Moloch Company s these past six months, because they had released their own super star, Beta. Right now, "she" was more popular than Emma …

Just as I was lost in my thoughts, the director asked me to continue asking the Ms Mistie about my own thoughts. "Alright, then what I want to ask is, do you not believe me when I say this?"

"I can't believe it, and there's a fatal logic problem."

"Please point it out."

Ms Mistie took out a belt shape item from her pocket, and a circular metal ring inside: "This item is also very old, it's something that my father left to me, called 'watch', which is used to measure time."

I've seen this kind of thing before, so I nodded. "Very good, so what's the logical problem?"

"Why is Emma so sure that she met a stranger at two-thirty?" she asked suddenly.

I checked the comment: "It's very simple. Other than according to the feeling of the Miss Emma, it can also be calculated based on the distance. Miss Emma returned to her hotel around 2: 50 PM. According to her running speed, from Greenbird Bay to her hotel would indeed need close to a quarter of an hour — — I meant if she were to rely on running. "

"In other words, a quarter of an hour less and a quarter of an hour less, and then the so-called 'time of molestation'. That is, the time when the two people met at that time, which is also equivalent to half past two."

"Exactly."

"Then we might as well take a look at my father's calculations. Just from this apartment, "she said, showing me the hands on her watch," it's a good coincidence that it's a quarter past two. "

"If I'm not wrong, I am."

She brought her watch closer to my sunglasses. "Show it to anyone who knows what I'm talking about. It's indeed a quarter past two."

When I didn't comment, she added, "According to the footage taken at the door of the apartment at that time, my father did indeed leave at a quarter past two. You can check the file on that point — if necessary."

"No, no, no, I'm not a detective." I waved my hand. "So how do you calculate your father's journey now?"

"It's very simple. We just need to move towards the Greenbird Bay from here." Ms Mistie led the way, I had a strange feeling, as though she had walked this path countless times. Because whenever the traffic lights were not yet lit and were about to come on, the Ms Mistie would turn around and show me her watch.

"Yes, that's right. We've walked this road for another three minutes." Twelve minutes had passed so far. "How much longer?"

"That doesn't count. After all, as an ordinary person, I'm not as good as a celebrity!" she mocked.

However, after walking past this traffic light, I could already see the appearance of Greenbird Bay — Greenbird Bay was in fact just a very ordinary artificial landscape channel, but it was famous for discovering the Green Peacock that was considered extinct two years ago. What was laughable was that even though the Green Peacock had already been 'protected' by the protection department, this place was named after the Green Peacock, as if it was its habitat.

"Alright, look how long we've been gone for?" After reaching the last level of Greenbird Bay, she showed me her watch.

I was a little flustered. After all, this was a little too foreign to me. I was completely unable to understand the meaning behind those three pointers. Fortunately, the comments on my screen told me the answer. Thus, I replied confidently, "Yes, just barely. Fifteen minutes later."

"Then, do you know what the logical problem is?"

I still couldn't wrap my head around it. "Your father left the house at a quarter past two, and then arrived at Greenbird Bay fifteen minutes later. But Emma said that she received it at half past two... Some irrational harassment. I don't think there's any problems, because the time is just right! "

"You're right," Ms Mistie took back the watch, as it clearly had an extraordinary significance to her, because I could see that its surface was still very clean. "But according to Miss Emma's description, she left for the Greenbird Bay for a 'casual' purpose, which means she can go to the Greenbird Bay at any time without having to go at two o'clock, right?"

"So you say."

"But my father always goes out to buy things on Saturdays at the same time, don't tell me they just happened to meet each other at the same time?"

"Maybe it's just that coincidental."

"But the place my father is going is the opposite of the Greenbird Bay." She pointed into the distance, "Father is always going to that store three blocks away from here to shop. So how is it possible for him to go to the Greenbird Bay? "

"This …" My mind couldn't wrap my head around it. "Maybe they said …"

"Right, you're right!" Ms Mistie's eyes lit up as hot as fire. "Unless Emma and my father make an agreement to meet again at two thirty in Greenbird Bay, they will never be able to do so!"

"This …" I was speechless.

"We also calculated the distance just now. Since we can only reach the Greenbird Bay after traveling from the apartment without stopping for fifteen minutes, then my father definitely did not go out for the purpose of buying things. He only went to the Greenbird Bay because he did not have the time to change his mind."

"You seem to be right." "But this is based on what you said. You said your father was out shopping at a quarter past two on Saturday afternoon."

"Emma claimed that she left the hotel at two o'clock in the morning for the Greenbird Bay," Mistie did not pay attention to my question, "One took half an hour, while the other took a quarter of an hour. Without a doubt, they had agreed to meet at two thirty in Greenbird Bay! So, how can this be an obscenity of some sudden stranger? "

I was speechless again. If she was right, there was something suspicious that needed to be cleared up.

"Don't you think so? The live broadcast live of Mr Latimer. "

The director told me not to express my opinion, I think that Emma was, after all, a VIP ranked celebrity that we could not easily offend: "I think there's been some misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" I felt like the flames in her eyes were going to burn me. "Just because Emma is a star, do you really believe all of her lies?"

"So the reason why you used Time Capsule was so that you could have more time to investigate this case and give your father justice?" I deliberately changed the subject.

"There are only three days left. Strictly speaking, there are still two and a half days left."

I saw that her body was trembling, and I felt the fire in her eyes begin to die down, replaced by a chilling despair.

"I know." I think we'll have to speed up. "Apart from this doubt, is there any other doubt? Or more practical evidence? " I grunted and swallowed. We haven't had lunch for the live broadcast.
