Chapter 300 Important Discovery

"Madam, you don't want your husband and son to be thrown into prison, right?"

Dean spread his hands on the sofa and looked at the woman in front of him who was bowing her head and crying. Her whole body smelled like a villain, and she was still the kind of shameless villain.

The crying woman is Fadili’s wife and Tiger’s mother.

After hearing Nellie say that her husband was also locked up due to conviction, this petite and kind-hearted woman suddenly lost her backbone and could only hold Nellie's little hand to wipe her tears.

Nellie is soft-hearted.

She could only comfort the helpless woman in a low voice, while looking for help at Dean who was sitting beside him shaking his feet.

So, the beginning scene appeared.

Nellie looked at Dean with wide eyes.

Listen!

Is this human language?

She originally wanted Dean to follow her to comfort poor Madam Fadili, but she didn't expect that this guy looked like a dog, but when he spoke, he spoke in a standard despicable villain tone.

Is this guy's job really a detective?

Dean ignored Nellie's weird look and threw a stack of photos on the table: "Madam, you should know me. I am the detective invited by Mr. Fadili. If you want your husband and son to return to your home safely, Please wipe away your tears and cooperate with me!"

Fadili's wife wiped her tears and glanced at Dean secretly before looking at the photos with red and swollen eyes.

When she saw the content of the photo clearly, her face changed slightly, and then she said in a panic: "What do you want me to cooperate with you?"

These photos were clearly kept by her husband, so how could they appear in the hands of this newly arrived detective?

She didn't know yet that her husband had gone out just to get rid of these photos.

Seeing the change in Fadili's wife's expression, Dean knew that the other party knew the inside story, so he went straight to the point: "These photos must have been secretly taken by Tiger, right?"

Fadili's wife hesitated for a moment and nodded hesitantly:

“Yes, Teacher Toti has always taken good care of Tiger, which made Tiger very fond of Teacher Toti.

Don't know when it will start.

Tiger began to take his father's camera, follow Teacher Toti, and take secret photos, but this kind of thing was soon discovered by Fadili.

Fadili is a person who cares a lot about what others think.

He thought that Tiger was only fifteen years old and still a student of Ms. Toti. This was not a normal emotion.

He was very worried that Tiger would do some impulsive things in the future, and he didn't want Tiger's behavior to be discovered by others one day, and he would be regarded as a stalking and filming maniac, so he deliberately found an opportunity to secretly go to the school to complain to the principal. Mr. Toti hopes that in this way, Mr. Toti will stop taking care of Tiger so much.

Later, Fadili also talked to Tiger.

The father and son had a quarrel because of this incident, but Tiger was very afraid of his father, so he finally agreed not to do such things again.

As a result, it didn't take long for him to be regarded as the suspect who killed Teacher Toti. "

Fadili's wife spoke very slowly and paused from time to time, but she also allowed Dean and Nellie to hear the whole story.

Dean raised his eyebrows: "Madam, are you saying that Tiger and Teacher Toti have no relationship beyond teacher-student?"

Fadili's wife shook her head affirmatively: "Absolutely not. Although Tiger is afraid of his father, he relies on me and will not hide his thoughts in front of me. If he does such a thing, he will definitely not be able to hide it from me."

Hearing this, Dean fell into deep thought.

He could tell that Fadili's wife was very serious in both her expression and tone, and did not have as many twists and turns as her husband.

Think about it.

Dean continued: "Madam, since Tiger relies on you, you should know Tiger better than your husband. Based on your understanding of him, do you think all Tiger's candid photos are here?"

Indoor murders are rarely random killings and usually have a motive.

According to our understanding, Teacher Toti is kind and responsible. He has never had any conflicts or disputes with others. His interpersonal relationships are also very simple. His relationship is single. There is no love-related murder due to emotional disputes.

In this situation.

These photos secretly taken by Tiger have become clues to Totti's private life.

Dean has high psychological skills and understands the behavior of these youthful and rebellious teenagers.

He suspected that Tiger had not handed over all the photos!

really.

After a moment of silence, Tiger's mother nodded: "He also hid some in the attic."

Dean quickly glanced at Nellie, and then said: "Please, Madam, please take Officer Nellie to take out those photos. Maybe there are clues we need in a certain photo to save your husband and son." ”

Hear this.

Tiger's mother didn't dare to be perfunctory, so she quickly took Nellie upstairs.

moment.

Nellie came down with a backpack.

Dean was a little surprised: "It's all in the backpack?"

Nellie was also a little speechless: "Yes, it turns out that Tiger started secretly taking photos of Mr. Toti a long time ago, and he only gave his father a very small part of the photos."

Pack your backpack.

Next.

Dean asked some more questions.

It's a pity that Fadili's wife is a traditional woman rarely seen in the United States. She doesn't know much. Fadili didn't put the pressure on his wife and silently shouldered the burden alone.

So next, Dean has no more gains.

Inquiry completed.

Dean restrained the oppressive feeling on his body, replaced it with a kind expression, and comforted: "Thank you for your cooperation, ma'am, I have some ideas about the case. What you need to do now is to take care of your body, otherwise if Tiger and your husband are acquitted, but you fall ill, they will definitely be very sad."

Fadili's wife reminded Dean of his mother, so he rarely showed some kindness.

His comfort was much more useful than the nonsense of the little policewoman Nellie.

Fadili's wife nodded vigorously: "Thank you, Mr. Detective, when Fadili and Tiger are away, I will help them take care of this family."

Farewell to Fadili's wife.

Nellie couldn't wait to look at Dean: "Detective Dean, do you really have a clue?"

Dean rolled his eyes at her: "Bullshit!"

"The situation is obvious now.

Tiger lied to the interrogation because he didn't want outsiders to know that he had a crush on Totti and even followed and secretly photographed him, even if this would lead to him being treated as a murderer.

I even suspect that the reason why Tiger was the first person to discover the murder of female teacher Totti was because he happened to come here to spy on Totti out of habit."

This kind of shameful emotion is too normal for an adolescent boy like Tiger. It is probably equivalent to a saying often said in China: I am not afraid of being torn to pieces, but I want to keep my innocence in the world.

Under the threat of social death, some people will burst out their potential even if they are hit by a car and fly more than ten meters away, holding on for a breath, and formatting their phones before they faint or die, not to mention Tiger's situation.

Nellie was stunned when she heard this: "Mr. Fadili knew the inside story, so why did he hide it and even want to destroy those photos?"

As a small town policewoman who kept herself clean, she really didn't understand this weird idea.

Dean shrugged: "First of all, it's useless for him to take out those photos. It will only further confirm the suspicion of his son Tiger. Secondly, Fadili's wife just said that Fadili is a face-loving person. I guess he doesn't want outsiders to know that his son is a stalker and a sneak photographer."

Nellie shook her head in disappointment: "Okay, then what should we do next?"

Dean looked at her strangely: "It's so late, of course it's time to go to bed!"

"Sleep!"

Hearing this, Nellie was surprised and happy. She lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, and she stood there awkwardly, biting her lips, and whispered: "Is it too fast?"

In response to her, the sound of the car engine starting.

Dean pulled down the window and waved to Nellie: "Come to XX Hotel to pick me up tomorrow morning."

Looking at the taillights of the car going away.

Nellie: "."

The next day, early in the morning, Nellie drove her police car to the town hotel to pick up Dean.

She seemed not to have slept well last night, and there were faint dark circles under her capable face.

"Morning."

Dean got into the car while biting a sandwich.

"Yeah."

Nellie looked at Dean sitting in the passenger seat through the rearview mirror calmly, with a guilty look in her eyes.

She had a dream last night.

When he woke up today, his pajamas were all wet.

Dean looked back at Nellie sharply.

But the other party had already retracted her gaze, holding the steering wheel, sitting upright, looking forward.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

Dean always felt that the little policewoman Nellie was a little strange today.

It seemed that she felt Dean's scrutiny.

Nellie said with a guilty conscience: "Detective Dean, are you going to school now?"

Dean retracted his gaze and nodded: "Yeah, find Tiger's classmates and find out the situation."

After that.

He wiped his mouth, took out the photos that Tiger had secretly taken from his pocket, and looked at them again.

The extra photos he got yesterday.

He had already looked at most of them.

The ones in his hand now were the remaining dozens.

The photos all had dates on them.

Based on the dates, Dean could summarize the approximate itinerary of the victim female teacher on a certain day in his mind, which was quite helpful.

In fact.

Teacher Totti's daily life after get off work was really simple: go to the supermarket, go home to eat, walk the dog, take a shower, and sleep. Occasionally, he would chat with acquaintances he met, but there was no overly intimate male.

There were really a lot of photos that Tiger had secretly taken, no less than a thousand.

But the content was all the same, all the same.

This made Dean a little disappointed.

He cheered up and continued to look through the remaining photos in his hand, hoping to get even a hint of clues from these photos.

For convenience.

These photos were arranged by Dean from back to front according to the date.

In other words.

The remaining photos in his hand were closer to the time before Totti was killed.

One by one, the photos were put aside.

As the number of photos decreased, the penultimate photo soon came.

Suddenly.

Dean's pupils shrank slightly.

His eyes locked onto a seemingly ordinary photo: in the photo, female teacher Totti was standing on the street, holding the driver's window of a gray car with her hand, her mouth open, as if she was talking to the driver.

In fact, Dean had seen similar photos more than once in Tiger's candid photos.

After all, the town is not big, and it is easy to meet acquaintances.

But this photo is a little different!

In the photo, female teacher Totti's left hand is holding the window of the gray car, and her right hand, which is vertically lowered, is clenched into a fist.

Fists represent emotions of excitement and anger.

What caused the always kind-hearted teacher Totti to clench her fists during a conversation?

Dean looked at the time on the photo again: August 2 afternoon.

That day was Friday!

And the time when the female teacher Totti was killed was August 4, Sunday, when the school was closed!

Dean shook the photo in his hand.

He seemed to have found an opportunity to solve the case!

The little policewoman Nellie kept looking at Dean stealthily.

Seeing that he focused on a photo for a long time with a smile on his face, I couldn't help but slow down the car and asked curiously: "Detective Dean, have you found anything new from the photo?"

Dean nodded: "I found that female teacher Totti had a dispute with the driver of a gray car on August 2nd. This time is very critical!"

"August 2nd..."

Nellie muttered, then thought of something, slammed on the brakes, and looked at Dean excitedly: "This was two days before Teacher Totti was killed!"

"Yes!" Dean nodded: "The driver of that car is very suspicious!"

"Then I will go to the police station to find someone to help. As long as the car is not from outside, we can find the suspicious vehicle soon!" Nellie said happily.

On the photo, although only half of the car body is exposed.

But the color and model of the car can be determined.

There are so many cars in the town, even if they are checked one by one, it will not take too much time.

Dean shook his head: "The clue is here, there is no rush. Let's go to school first, and after we ask Tiger's classmates, we will go to check the gray car ourselves."

People's hearts are unpredictable.

Dean was worried that after reporting this clue, the sheriff of the town would do something stupid to save his face.

This is not impossible.

Nellie was disappointed when she heard it, but she still cheered up, restarted the car, and drove to the school.

In America, after turning 16, you can get a driver's license and drive on the road.

There are also many parents here who will buy their children a second-hand car to drive to school and play after they get a driver's license at the age of 16.

So along the way, there were students who kept overtaking.

Some brave ones deliberately drove parallel to Nellie's police car and whistled at her.

Nelly was not angry at the teasing of those young guys, but smiled knowingly, and then said with some disappointment: "It's a nostalgic scene, but I don't know how long it can last."

Many young men and women who grew up in small towns yearn for life in big cities, and will go to Los Angeles to find employment opportunities after adulthood.

This also leads to a continuous decline in the birth rate of small towns.

Maybe in a few years.

The schools in small towns don't have enough students.

As she sighed, the police car finally arrived at the school.
