Chapter 7: The Last Three Hours

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Despite being a little reluctant to accept Alice’s theory, given the future of the department and its credibility to the public, the Chief had to reconsider Jerry Mac’s death.

But that was the problem. The FBI had conducted an investigation into Jerry Mac’s room thoroughly.

Other than himself and the internet celebrity, no one else had entered the room.

There was no way the killer could commit a crime without entering the room.

If that was the case, then Jerry Mac’s death was really hard to speculate.

After serious thought, the Chief opened his mouth.

“Alice, so you’re saying that the internet celebrity killed Jerry Mac?”

“I’ve done a simulation for this situation, and in thed, I don’t think that is it.”

“On one hand, the internet celebrity had no motive to kill Jerry Mac. On the other hand, during the interrogation, the internet celebrity’s words and behavior were all normal and natural. I’m 100% sure that she was not lying, or else I would have seen it in her eyes!”

When she said this, Alice was full of confidence.

This was because psychological analysis was one of her best skills in solving cases.

Because of her skill, she had solved many unsolved cases.

The Chief was also very confident in Alice’s analysis. Seeing Alice say this, he also gave up his suspicion of the only person in the room other than Jerry Mac.

“Since it’s not the internet celebrity, then who killed Jerry Mac?”

The Chief was even more troubled now.

At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

A young male police officer entered. When he saw Alice, he immediately reported, “Detective, the results of the latest footprint simulation technology that you proposed is out.”

“Footprint simulation technology?”

When he heard this, the Chief was stunned. Then, he looked at Alice in surprise. “Alice, you have actually mastered the footprint simulation technology now?”

“Is it the technology that roughly reverts what happened that night in the room through the duration of every footprint in the room? Alice has already mastered this kind of technology?”

…

It was not only the Chief, but the others in the meeting room was also amazed.

Although this technology was very helpful in solving cases, it was very challenging.

After all, it was quite a heavy workload to analyze every set of footprints in the room and deduce what they were doing during that period of time based on the footprints.

In the face of everyone’s surprise and flattery, Alice did not show much emotion. Instead, she immediately ordered the young policeman, “Play the simulation video on the big screen.”

After inserting the USB into the video player, everyone in the meeting room set their sight on the big screen.

Soon, the simulation video began to appear.

That night, Jerry Mac and the Internet celebrity began their series of hanky panky.

The whole process was very long, and after the end, the two people took a shower and slept together.

Until midnight, there was not any movement.

Late at night, Jerry Mac suddenly got up, and then reached out to the door of the room, walked out, and directly jumped over the railing into the sea.

The celebrity was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep and did not find anything unusual until the next morning, where everyone found Jerry Mac disappeared.

The next thing was the police taking over the yacht.

Through the footprint simulation technology, the case was almost completely restored.

But the outcome had once again made Alice fall into confusion.

After all, in her opinion, Jerry Mac’s death was definitely not just a simple accident. There must be someone behind it.

But the problem was that there wasn’t really a second person entering the room.

At the same time, it also ruled out the last trace of suspicion of the internet celebrity.

This internet celebrity did not wake up all night and obviously didn’t have the time to commit the crime.

“Alice, maybe you’re really worrying too much.”

After using the footprint simulation technology to reconstruct the scene, the Chief also gave up.

At this point, they still hadn’t found the murderer. What else could they say?

Although there were many doubts that hadn’t been solved, the evidence was irrefutable.

In his opinion, Jerry Mac’s accidental death was irreversible.

Thinking of this, the Chief heaved a sigh of relief.

However, Alice was still persistent to her stand.

Her eyes were firm as she shook her head. “Chief, I feel that there’s definitely something that we haven’t found out. Any perfect crime will have a flaw…”

“I understand what you mean.” Alice’s stubbornness made him feel helpless. “However, the footprint simulation technology is already the best detection method for the crime scene. How do you expect us to investigate if we haven’t discovered anything unexpected?”

“I think we should just give up. Alice, give up.”

The Chief was still trying to persuade Alice that he wanted to end this case as soon as possible. After all, Jerry Mac was the most famous tycoon in Gotham City. There were too many things that involved people like him.

The sooner the case ended, the fewer problems would appear.

Over time, the attention towards this case would become smaller and smaller. Eventually, no one would pay too much attention to the case. Naturally, the pressure from the public would be much less.

Alice understood the Chief’s thoughts. She also understood that he had his own difficulties.

But the problem was that she still couldn’t believe such an ending.

After thinking for a moment, Alice said, “Chief, please give me three more hours.”

“I will continue to analyze the case here alone. If there is no result after three hours, I will give up.”

“Okay, but only for three hours. If there is no result, the case will be closed.”

“Yes, Sir!”

…

It was already afternoon after the conference meeting about Jerry Mac’s case and everyone had gone home for lunch.

But not Alice. She buried herself in the thick file and stared at the big screen, watching the restored images frame by frame.

Not only that, Alice also restored the images of Jerry Mac before he entered the room through the footprint simulation technology.

As time was tight, Alice played the two videos simultaneously.

Although watching two videos at the same time consumed twice the amount of brainpower and vision, which might even cause brain fatigue and brain damage for a long time.

But in order to solve this case, Alice could not care so much anymore.

Once, twice…

Alice had watched the videos countless times.

Even though the police officers had come back to work after lunch, Alice was still busy.

Many people tried to persuade Alice to give up, but in the end, they were the ones who gave up.

They all knew that Alice was the kind of person who wouldn’t stop until she got what she wanted.
