Stanley nodded. “Looks like the murderer has deliberately concealed his face.”
At this moment, the restaurant manager brought a few police officers and hurried up to them.
An elderly police officer asked, “Who made the police report?”
The woman who made the call raised her hand. “It was me.”
“Alright, tell me what happened.” He flipped his notebook open in preparation to take notes.
The lady glanced at Natalie and told him everything after Natalie nodded at her.
Yulia clutched onto the elderly police officer’s hand. “Sir, please, you have to catch the culprit!”
The two children echoed, “That’s right! Sir, please!”
Stanley remained silent and looked down. No one knew what he was thinking about.
“Don’t worry, this is our responsibility. We will definitely do so.” He comforted Yulia and the children as he pulled his hand back. Then, he began asking Natalie some questions.
After questioning her, his brows were furrowed tightly. “This is a tough case to crack!”
“Why so?” the restaurant manager asked immediately.
Of course, he was worried. Someone nearly died in a restaurant that was under his care!
“According to this lady, the man had deliberately disguised himself. On top of that, there is no security camera in this restroom. With no information on his figure or height, let alone his face, it won’t be easy for us to find him.” The elderly police officer sighed.
“No, there is a security camera in the corridor.” The restaurant manager pointed above his head.
Stanley raised his eyebrows. “Is that so? That’s great. That camera should have captured the culprit fleeing the scene. Let’s go to the security room to take a look, shall we?”
“We shall.” The elderly police officer nodded.
Yulia helped Natalie get off the chair and the entourage walked towards the security room.
Just like what Stanley had said, the security camera did capture the culprit coming out of the female restroom, but unfortunately, it was still not enough to identify him.
