Mr. Quill investigated all the people who knew his grandson and his wife. He found that everyone liked them because they had been kind to others.
They had never offended anyone in their life. Even business opponents acclaimed them.
It was even less likely that there was anyone who would hate them and were desperate to kill them.
But something suddenly came into his mind. Cold shivers ran down his back.
Something aroused his suspicion, but there was no substantive evidence.
Then he found the garage.
Three days before the accident, the couple went to a garage to get their car repaired. Their mechanic’s name was John Lee.
John Lee was about fifty years old and was a skilled mechanic. Lots of regular customers would ask him for help.
The couple came to John and wanted to solve an engine problem because they heard that he was professional.
John took the job and fixed the car as quickly as expected. After the repair, the car was checked and there was no problem at all.
The couple was very satisfied, they paid the money and drove away.
It was a holiday, and they were on the way to visit Mr. Quill in the village.
No one expected that the car would crash halfway...
Although the police also investigated the garage after the accident, due to the lack of evidence and the fact that the car had been burnt down, it could not be confirmed that it was a murder.
Therefore, the case was closed.
But Mr. Quill believed that there was something wrong with the car.
Because when he went to investigate the garage, and the moment he saw John Lee, he understood everything.
Genetics was undoubtedly one of the most amazing things in this world. A person who should have been dead for decades suddenly came back to life one day and stood in front of him.
It wasn't until that moment that he knew the baby didn’t die.
Not only did he not die, but he also survived, and became the most famous and skilled mechanic in the neighborhood.
He led a quiet life for so many years, not because he forgot his hatred, but because he was waiting for the right timing.
Then the time came.
The couple didn't know about him and trusted him to fix their vehicle.
How could he have missed such a good opportunity?
So, he secretly did something to the brakes, and no one could find out.
As he expected, the couple died.
He had finally avenged his parents’ death.
By killing this couple, John knew that it would make Mr. Quill more painful than killing himself.
When Mr. Quill found him, he didn’t try to run away, instead, he frankly admitted the crime.
He thought that Mr. Quill would kill him.
But he did not.
Because for all these years, Mr. Quill had been regretting and blaming himself for the misdeeds he had done impulsively.
