Chapter 22: Another Strange Doll Is Found!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Seeing this, one of Davis’ men immediately asked, “Hey, where’s the box you were holding just now?”

“What box?”

“Don’t play dumb with me. It’s the box you were holding when you first came in. I’m telling you, if you dare to lie to me, you’ll suffer.”

The woman startled and cried, “Don’t mess around. I’m just paid to do things. I’ve handed that box to someone else.”

“Who did you hand it over to?”

“I don’t know. He was wearing a black mask. I couldn’t see him clearly. He gave me ten dollars and asked me to help him bring something back. I agreed. I’ll give you the money if you want, just don’t hurt me!”

Outside the door, Davis, who had heard everything through the walkie-talkie, was furious. He slammed the walkie-talkie into pieces onto the ground.

At this moment, how could he still not understand?


It was likely that the Puppeteer already anticipated that he would play dirty tricks behind him, so he was already prepared for it.

Unfortunately, he still did not know anything about the Puppeteer. What was worse was that he was being played around with!

His eyes turned cold as he muttered to himself, “What a good Puppeteer. He is indeed extraordinary!”

On the other hand, a man in a black windbreaker and a mask on his face was swaggering down the street with a slender wooden box on his back.

Soon, in a hidden alley, the man changed his clothes and revealed his face.

It was Hughes.

Indeed, he was very cautious and would not put himself in danger.

Therefore, he had made full preparations.

By hiring a child, a middle-aged man, and a blonde woman, he was able to perfectly hide himself behind the scenes and manipulate Davis through a series of operations.

Without much thought, Hughes could not wait to open the wooden box.

When he saw the frozen kidneys, his eyes immediately lit up.

This time, he could save his sister.

His sister had been diagnosed with uremia. She had to undergo surgery to replace both kidneys in order to survive.

For a long time, he had been running around for this, but there was no progress at all. He could only watch as his sister endured the pain in hospital.

At first, he was in despair, but then the Puppet Manufacturing System descended on him.

Through the series of puppets from the system that he obtained, he was able to get to where he was now. He had sufficient money to support his sister’s expenses.

And now, he had a suitable pair of kidneys, which could completely cure his sister’s illness!

Thinking of this, Hughes immediately closed the box and rushed to the hospital.

He wanted to tell his sister this good news as soon as possible and immediately ask her doctor to arrange an operation!

At the same time.

At the police station, Alice’s investigation was still going on.

In just a few days, she had already investigated Ada’s family, friends, women, and places that he frequently went.

But she still found nothing. Everything was normal.

It seemed that Ada’s death was really just an accident.

Now, there was only one person left.

If there were still no key breakthroughs, then it could only consider the case closed temporarily.

Otherwise, the Chief would really go crazy under the pressure given by the press and his superior.

Alice thought to herself and looked at the villa in front of her.

Through investigation, it was found that Ada had an affair with a celebrity that lived here.

Ada had even spent the night here few days before the murder.

Therefore, Alice came to see if there was anything related to the case here.

Ding dong —

Alice walked towards the door and rang the doorbell.

Soon, a woman pushed the door open and asked in confusion, “Hello, may I know who you are looking for?”

“Are you Miss Kalitan?” Alice asked.

“Huh?”

The woman standing in front of Alice was none other than Kalitan. She nodded in confusion. “Yes, it’s me. Why are you looking for me?”

“Oh, it’s like this.”

Alice took out the police officer’s ID from her pocket and informed her, “I’m a police officer. I’m currently investigating Mr. Ada’s case. I’d like to ask you a few questions. Do you have the time?”

“Ah, so that’s how it is,”

Kalitan came to a realization and hurriedly extended her hand to invite her. “Of course I do. Please come in and have a seat.”

“Okay.”

Following Kalitan into the living room, Alice sat on the sofa and looked around at her surroundings.

The decoration of the villa was luxurious. It was estimated to cost a king’s ransom. It was definitely not something a third-rate Hollywood celebrity could afford.

It seemed that the results of the investigation were not wrong. Kalitan was really Ada’s mistress.

“Do you want to drink something?” Kalitan asked.

“No, thank you.” Alice waved her hand and adjusted her sitting posture. She said with a serious expression, “Shall we start now?”

“Okay.”

“According to our investigation, Mr. Ada came to see you a few days before he died, right?”

“Yes.”

“Then, did anything unusual happen to him at that time? Or, did anything strange happen?”

“Hmm…”

Kalitan recalled for a moment, then shook her head and said, “No, he came very late at that time. There was nothing different from usual. Everything was normal. We also went to bed early. During that time, nothing unusual happened, not even a phone call.”


“Is that so…”

Alice looked a little disappointed. She had carefully observed Kalitan’s expression just now, and it did not seem like she was lying.

It seemed like she was just an ordinary mistress, nothing special.

She guessed this trip was probably a fruitless one.

Thinking of this, Alice could not help but feel a little depressed.

At this moment, she heard Kalitan sigh, “Why… How did it end up like this? I heard that it was a sudden death caused by an overdose. Logically speaking, it shouldn’t have happened. I know that he is used to taking stimulant drugs, but why did he eat so much? That day, I gave him a puppet. He was so happy and excited and we had fun that whole night, but he did not even eat that much that night. What a strange thing!”

“A puppet?”

Alice caught that word very keenly.

Her eyes suddenly lit up. She grabbed Kalitan’s hand and asked anxiously, “You said a puppet? What kind of puppet did you say it was?”
