You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 180

The first person to lead the team was Karl, a good-looking, tall and handsome man, who stepped into the room and walked straight towards Jacqueline. He showed his police ID and said to other police officers present, "We are the Second Precinct Criminal Investigation Detachment. From now on, we will take over the scene here." The voice was loud and clear.

He winked at the other officers, "Seal off the scene and collect evidence. Notify the coroner."

The rest of the police immediately divided the work. Some began to pull the cordon fence, some began to collect evidence, and some cleaned up the scene and took photos.

Joyce recognized that it was Karl, the detective who took over the case of Lauren for her last time, and she immediately shouted, "Officer Karl, when I came back, Grandma had no breath, but her body was still warm, so the murderer hadn't gone far, so hurry up and expand the search area."

Shelly rushed to Karl's side, "Officer, don't listen to her. My grandmother must have been killed by her. You hurry up and arrest her."

Karl shot a cold glance at Shelly and swept her away with one arm, "It's not up to you to decide who the suspect is. Please do not interfere with our work." He took out his walkie-talkie, "Attention, ground crew outside, expand the search area, the killer may be nearby. Don't let go of the slightest hint."

Shelly shouted incredulously, "You believe her? Why?"

Karl returned with an expressionless face, "I'm just doing my work, not letting any useful information slip by."

He glanced at Joyce's handcuffed hands behind her back, and then at Jacqueline, the oldest person here, and asked, "What is the deseased's name?"

"Stephanie," Jacqueline replied. "She is my mother-in-law, eighty-two years old."

"And what is she to you?" Karl pointed at Joyce, "If I remember correctly, your name is Joyce, right? The person involved in the Lauren case last time."

Jacqueline froze and stammered, "She is my son's nominal wife."

Karl frowned, "A couple is a couple, what do you mean by nominally? The last time at the police station, I clearly remember that she was registered as the wife of Luther. So Luther is your son and she is your daughter-in-law. The deceased is your mother-in-law, right?"
