Meanwhile, Reuben was sat in the meeting room of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department with a worried face.
Since Moore Group was a famous company with power, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department treated him very courteously.
The Superintendent General, who had rushed from home in the middle of the night, was there to host Reuben personally.
Seeing Reuben in a distraught state, the Superintendent General comforted him and said, "Mr. Moore, our battalion of men have started to look for your sister's whereabouts in Nishitama district. So, you don't need to worry. As soon as there are any outcomes and clues, I'll immediately report to you."
Reuben sighed a little and covered his face in agony. With a lump in his throat, he uttered, "Jasmine is my only sister, and also the one whom I loved the most. You must give your best and bring her back safely!"
The Superintendent General nodded and assured Reuben, "Don’t worry, Mr. Moore. We'll give it our all to find Ms. Moore's whereabouts!”
With gratitude, Reuben replied, "Thank you so so much!"
At that moment, someone came in from outside. With
a face of urgency, this person said, "Superintendent General, our officers have found Ms. Moore’s commercial vehicle in the mountains of Nishitama. The vehicle was in the valley. In that vehicle, they found two burnt corpses. Another one was found on the steep hillside!" 3
When Reuben heard this, his eyes went red, and tears immediately streamed down his face. 4
Feeling extremely tense, he asked, "Superintendent General, did something happen to Jasmine?"
The informant explained, "Mr. Moore, we've identified the corpse by the hillside, which is Ms. Moore’s assistant, Zahra York. As for the other two burnt corpses, we used high-definition cameras to carefully compare. When the commercial vehicle left the hotel, the seating arrangement was as follows. The driver was a male sitting in the driver's seat. The co-driver seat was taken by Ms. Moore’s other assistant, Shelly. Ms. Moore and Zahra were sat in the back row." 3
"Thus, we can see that the burnt corpse on the codriver seat should be Shelly unless Ms. Moore switched places with Shelly halfway through the journey. However, we think that this probability is very low." 3
At this moment, the Superintendent General deduced," Now, it's confirmed that Zahra's corpse was discovered. The other two corpses are most likely the driver and Shelly. This means that Ms. Moore might still be alive!" 4
When Reuben heard this, he almost collapsed! 5 He swore nervously in his heart.
'What's going on? What happened? Why is Jasmine still alive?! Wasn't Hashimoto's men very sure that Jasmine rolled down the valley inside the vehicle?! How could she be missing?!’
