Chapter 293
Peter smiled. “Ms. Larson, what are you saying? You’re family. It’s normal to visit a patient.”
I let out a sigh of relief and slowly let go of Zion’s finger.
“But…” Peter’s smile faded. “Steven isn’t just an average mentally ill patient. He’s extremely aggressive. Aside from that, he has also committed crimes… He’s currently being investigated. Without the police’s
permission, we can’t visit him.”
“Dr. Jones, the reason Steven beat people up is still under investigation. The police haven’t…” Zion spoke
angrily.
Peter interrupted him. “Officer Landon, if you are still investigating, I can allow you to visit with the documents. After all, we have regulations. You won’t put us in a difficult position, right?”
The hidden meaning of his words was that Zion was no longer a criminal police. He was currently a traffic
police. He should direct traffic.
Zion clenched his fists and wanted to punch Peter.
I held onto Zion’s arm tightly. “Let’s go.”
“We don’t have enough time.” Zion was in a panic.
“We can only put our hopes on Eason. He’s the only one who can predict who the murderer will kill next.” I
shook my head.
Peter wouldn’t let us visit Steven.
“Steven fought because he was stimulated by the other party. The other party knew that he had mental illnesses but still stimulated him deliberately… If the police investigation has ended, and he is no longer under investigation, Peter can’t stop us from Visiting him anymore.” I took a deep breath and turned to
look at the asylum.
We couldn’t waste our efforts now.
Since Steven decided to enter this asylum, he must have his own way of thinking.
“Let’s go to Eason.” Zion brought me along to see Eason.
“You will face a lot of restrictions with your current identity,” I whispered.
Zion fell silent. He regretted acting on impulse back then and hit Simón.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have…
“I have a feeling that there’s something wrong with Peter.” Looking at the asylum, I said in a soft voice,” Zion, did you hear anyone crying?”
I didn’t know if I was hallucinating, but the moment I approached the asylum, I would hear cries. It was as if countless souls were struggling.

Zion listened to the surrounding areas carefully. He shook his head. “I didn’t hear anything.”
I took a deep breath. “Maybe I’m stressed out. Let’s go.”
Once I got into the car, I looked at Ewan. “Try to make Jake withdraw the case. In this way, we can visit
Steve.”
Ewan nodded. “That’s a bit difficult. Jake is arranged by Martin.”
I fell silent for a while. Then, I asked, “Does Martin not have anyone he needs to beg?”
Ewan nodded again. “He has. All of the deals he made for the past several years have been illegal incomes. For him to clear his reputation and dock business, he needs to take over the Lincoln Group. Through the Lincoln Group, he needs to launder his assets bit by bit. Aside from that, he needs to have the support of a fixed strategic partner to take over the Lincoln Group. The Crowdstar Group is a miracle in the business industry for its growth in recent years. Martin has been wanting to suck up to the president behind the Crowdstar Group. But the president is very mysterious.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie)
A very good thriller in the beginning ruined by unnecessary twist and unrealistic plots. Exaggerating the story just for the sake of it. Totally disappointed...
