You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 897

"So I decided that I should return to the Capital and enter the House of Inspection just as my father wished. Yet I deliberately chose the Special Investigation Unit, in order to be able to intervene in the internal investigation of the military. In the end, when there was finally a result, the military had kept it a secret. My sources told me that they had put all the blame on Ricky and nothing happened to Charlotte in the end. Even the fact that Charlotte instructed Thomas to set you up was erased by them. After all, we have no solid evidence."

"So, you came back to the Capital to help me find out the truth about what happened back then?"

Joyce bit her lower lip, and a wave of bitterness surged in her heart. It turned out, he did all these for her.

For four years, he had not given up his pursuit for the truth.

In order to find out the truth, he did not hesitate to give up the peaceful days he had resolutely chosen to return to the center of power. And he was back to the top of power only because of her.

"You should not think much about it. It's not entirely because of you." Karl understood what she was thinking, and he knew she would have a burden in her heart, and he explained, "It’s just who I am. I feel eager to find out about the truth. I just can’t leave my cases like that. To me, it is such a shame, and no matter what it might take, I will have to find the truth one way or another."

"Hmm." Joyce nodded, "So, why are you here and why would the Special Investigation Unit take on this common criminal case?"

"Should I be asking you that question? Why were you at the crime scene at Hotel Dragon?" Karl asked rhetorically, "Do you know something?"

"Hmm." Joyce nodded, "I know who the killer is."

Karl's dark eyes lit up abruptly, "Who is it?"

"Otis Robertson!" Joyce couldn't help but shudder a little as she said it out loud.

Karl's eyes tightened and his expression immediately became serious. Things were more complicated than he expected.

"How do you know?" He pursued.

"I came to the Capital from Mufron for the Artificial Intelligence Summit and had some problems with the Walsh brothers of the Blue Maple Group. I kicked their asses, and they sent some punks to block me in the garage. Otis once told me that he would show his sincerity to me. I never thought that his sincerity would mean killing people."

She said and took a deep breath.

Yes, she was the one who asked Otis to show his sincerity, but she never dreamed that Otis' sincerity would be so vicious and bloody.

"Go on." Karl got up, made a pot of green tea and came over. He poured Joyce a steaming cup of tea and brought it to her. He could tell that she seemed a little cold and her fingers were trembling slightly.

Joyce took the cup of tea and warmed her hands.

The fear at the bottom of her heart was finally somewhat dispelled.
