From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables-Chapter 1626

Chapter 1626: Extra 705: Forgetting the Present and Past_1 Chapter 1626: Extra 705: Forgetting the Present and Past_1 The atmosphere was tense within the Police Department.

The newly arrived intern, Cerenia, was sorting through the scant clues they had just collected.

However, the clues were far too sparse, the incident took place within an abandoned chemical factory, with all surrounding surveillance machinery long out of operation.

This was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.

“Mr.

Philbert, why did you come here yourself?”

Cerenia looked up, seeing the Chief of Police personally greeting a man clad in a suit and leather shoes into the office.

The man was stern, exuding an aura of authority.

...

The Chief was almost bending ninety degrees in front of him.

Cerenia secretly rolled her eyes.

Tough on the inside, subservient on the outside.

Mr.

Philbert adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and spoke in a businesslike manner, “Mr.

Cook is very concerned about Ms.

Aubree’s disappearance, and hopes that you may solve the case and find her whereabouts quickly, otherwise!”

Otherwise, they all know very well.

Cerenia didn’t want to look at the Chief’s bitter face again, but she was thinking about the missing Ms.

Aubree.

Her background was certainly not ordinary; her mother was a famous star, Nikita Parker, her father was the dean of the State Medical College, Peter Aria, and her boyfriend was Mr.

Cook’s brother.

When Cerenia was in college, she heard her classmates talk about their love story every day.

An ideal pairing involving beauty and talent.

However, she didn’t expect such a tragedy to occur just a year later.

Ms.

Aubree herself was quite an amazing person.

Cerenia couldn’t help but admire her after reading her resume.

It was hard to believe such a smart and kind-hearted girl existed in this world.

She developed an immunosuppressive drug for the treatment of cancer, which was extremely successful in clinical trials.

Without a doubt, she had contributed significantly to the advancement of international medicine, bringing hope to countless cancer patients and their families.

It was hard to imagine that these achievements came from an eighteen-year-old girl.

Being in possession of such a treasure naturally attracted much unwanted attention.

When Tristan Wood of Shenghui Pharmaceuticals was unsuccessful in seeking a partnership, he resorted to malicious tactics and kidnapped Aubree.

This was the origin of everything.

It was Aubree’s boyfriend, Anton Cook, who first noticed that something was wrong.

He immediately reported to the Chief, Madon Linggo, who quickly dispatched officers.

However, by the time they reached the abandoned chemical factory, it was already too late.

The scene was a mess.

Tristan Wood and the three kidnappers were all unconscious on the ground, and Aubree was missing, her whereabouts unknown to all.

Linggo later used various criminal investigation techniques to survey the scene.

A heavy snow had fallen the night before, covering up all the clues.

The only piece left at the crime scene was a Jade Lotus Hairpin, which, after testing, had only Aubree’s fingerprints, but no other useful information was found.

A week has passed, there was no progress in the case.

Madam Lewis and Mr.

Cook were pressuring in turns.

The news of Aubree’s kidnapping had not been made public yet, but considering her social status and influence, the consequences would be unthinkable once it’s exposed.

The Police Department was under tremendous pressure, as if walking on thin ice, always on their toes.

After seeing off Mr.

Philbert, the Chief wore a gloomy face.

“We must dig three feet into the ground if that’s what it takes to find her.

I cannot believe in this modern society, a living person could just vanish into thin air!”

“Could Tristan Wood be lying?

Did he hide Ms.

Aubree?

Did he orchestrate all this to divert suspicion from him?” someone doubted.

At this moment, Linggo stride in, speaking coldly “Continue to interrogate Tristan Wood.”

In the interrogation room, Tristan Wood looked haggard and miserable, his eyes showing severe dark circles.

Blinded by the bright lights, having been awake for over seventy-two hours, Tristan Wood was on the verge of collapse.

“I…I really don’t know where she went, please…please let me go, I really regret…”

Tristan Wood wept bitterly, regretting messing with Aubree.

Now that she’s missing, he was the last person to have seen her, becoming the only breakthrough in the case.

But he really didn’t know, he described every action and detail he had seen the day after he met Aubree to the police over and over again.

But the police still suspected him, interrogating him again and again, torturing him.

He felt it would be better just to die.

Cerenia saw Linggo stepping out of the interrogation room, with a gloomy face.

She grabbed a bottle of water and walked over to him.

“Chief, have you thought about the possibility that Ms.

Aubree left on her own?”

Linggo paused while opening the water bottle, and suddenly looked up at her.
