His eyes were filled with terror, and he stood frozen in place as if trapped in ice and snow.

After a long moment, Calvin reached out in disbelief, as if wanting to touch my check.

But the instant his fingers touched the glass door of the freezer, he recoiled as if stung.

He called my name: “Whitney?”

His voice was dry and hoarse.

Naturally, the corpse in the freezer could no longer respond to him.

I floated nearby, my feelings a tangled mess.

Suddenly, a man’s voice approached from afar: “Captain!”

It was probably a detective coming to look for Calvin, seeing he hadn’t come out for a long time.

The man quickly ran in, and when he saw the scene inside the freezer, his eyes widened in shock.

Stunned, he stammered, “Is this… sister–in–law?!”

The haze in my heart instantly cleared away.

No matter who saw such a scene, they would be deeply shocked.

Even if it were someone else lying inside, Calvin would probably react the same way, wouldn’t he?

It doesn’t prove anything.

At this moment, his expression had already returned to its usual calm. He nodded to his colleague: “Take it back to the station.”

Aside from his slightly hoarse voice, there was nothing unusual about him.

The Detective Division led by Calvin specialized in handling major cases.

Perhaps they had witnessed too many such brutal scenes; aside from the initial shock at discovering it was me, everyone else showed little surprise.

Soon after, they began methodically collecting evidence from the scene.

Both the murderer and my body were taken back to the police station

I followed behind Calvin, wondering if, at this moment, he felt even a little sadness for me.

But the man remained silent all the way, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

When we arrived at the station and reached the door of the interrogation room, he finally spoke: “I’ll do it.”

His colleagues exchanged worried glances, and someone tried to persuade him: “Captain, maybe… we should handle this instead.”

But Calvin was resolute: “No need.”

With that, he pushed open the door to the interrogation room and walked in.

The murderer was already handcuffed to the chair. Facing the imposing Calvin, he showed not a trace of fear.

Instead, he curled his lips with interest: “Captain McMullen, we meet again.”

His tone was so casual, as if greeting an acquaintance on the street.

Calvin sat down and looked at him, his eyes dark and unreadable: “Tell me, what exactly have you done?”

As soon as he spoke, the temperature in the interrogation room seemed to drop below zero, as if a layer of frost had formed over everything.

The murderer leaned forward and lowered his voice: “Me? I killed your wife, and your unborn

child.”

Upon hearing this, Calvin’s fists clenched abruptly, veins bulging on his arms.

He was clearly struggling to control his emotions.

Yet the murderer seemed intent on provoking him further, continuing, “What a pity, she was so beautiful, her skin as white as snow. If you hadn’t shown up suddenly, she could have been my most successful work.”

Hearing this, Calvin suddenly stood up.

His movement was so abrupt that the chair behind him was kicked over, making a loud “bang.”

Seeing this, the murderer kept provoking: “Want to hit me, Captain McMullen?”

Calvin could no longer hold back and rushed forward, grabbing the murderer’s collar.

His eyes were bloodshot with rage, and his hard fist was about to smash into the murderer’s face.

“Captain! Don’t!”

The other officers quickly pulled him back from both sides, urging, “It’s not worth getting punished for someone like this! Let the law deal with him! Justice will be done for sister–in–law!”
