Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 305

I abruptly halted, my gaze following their figures as they moved into the main hall. I perked up my ears to catch what the officer was saying.

"A driving recorder inside a sedan parked on the slope, and it recorded everything." A young policeman in a casual shirt excitedly announced, pulling out a USB stick from his pocket.

People in the hall immediately gathered around, obviously excited by the news.

I turned to the female officer who had brought us in, "Did you find a clue about Evan? Can I see it too?"

The officer hesitated, so I quickly pleaded, "Maybe I can help identify something."

At this, she looked unsure, but I didn't give her time to respond, "Don't worry. I know your procedures are confidential. I won't say a word to anyone."

Without waiting for her approval, I walked further into the room. I was desperate to see what was going on.

The female officer called after me, and the male officer who had questioned me earlier, obviously a leader, looked surprised. He quickly understood what was happening and waved the female officer off, indicating she should let me stay.

Hannah and I walked over. The leader instructed the young officer who had arrived last, "Take it to the conference room, and put it on the big screen."

We all moved to a larger conference room. The young man plugged in the USB stick and turned on the large television screen.

The screen flickered a few times before a dark scene appeared, and the sound of a steady rain was audible in the background.

My nerves immediately tightened, and my eyes fixed on the screen.

The scene was dimly lit, showing a curve in the road, a gentle slope extending into the distance. Sparse lights twinkled in the darkness. The rain was heavy, and no one was around. The gathered rainwater rushed down the slope in a swift and relentless torrent.

I gripped my hands tightly, hardly daring to breathe, afraid to miss any detail.

This went on for what felt like a long time, and then, finally, a figure appeared, ghost-like as it moved up the slope.
