companion ghost

Shen Lie followed Dino and Casey back to the Homicide Squad's office, and saw that the original women and men had almost dispersed, leaving only the lingering smell of mixed perfume, he asked, "I need you to go to a group Ask the teachers and classmates at Hudson University about the life circle of the deceased Peggy—"

Before Shen Lie could finish speaking, Jerry quickly waved his hand: "Don't let me go, my head hurts when I see that student president, that arrogance is too much like my ex-wife, I always want to pinch her."

Everyone: "..."

Casey was very optimistic, and winked at Dino: "It seems that we have no choice?"

Dino laughed and ruffled his soft blond hair vigorously.

Ning Yuan watched from the side, and went to Shen Lie's side to gossip: "It's a one-hundred dollar bet that Casey and Dino must have something to do."

Shen Lie took out his mobile phone and typed: "Then you owe me a hundred dollars."

Ning Yuan: "...Damn it's impossible! Dino's expression of wanting to put Casey in his pocket can fool anyone!"

Shen Lie shook his head with a smile: "Dino didn't take the initiative to say that Kathy's nerves are as thick as a hundred-year-old tree trunk, what can happen?"

Ning Yuan cheated: "I don't care, I don't care, there will always be one in the end!"

Just at this time, Dino and Casey walked out of the office first, and Shen Lie followed behind them, pinching the soft flesh on Ning Yuan's stomach maliciously, in exchange for the other party to glare at him.

Why do you owe so much!

Hudson University Freshman Office

"Officers, oh, and Mr. Prosecutor," the female director, who is over fifty years old but still hale and hearty, pushed her glasses on the bridge of her nose and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Yes, ma'am," Dino smiled politely, took out a photo and put it on the table in front of the director, "Can you recognize this girl?"

"Of course... oh, this is little Peggy," the director looked at the photo carefully, "a very obedient and obedient student, of course, her academic performance is also very good—what's the matter, did something happen to Peggy?"

Dino said, "We're sorry, but Peggy was murdered."

"What? It's impossible!" The director reacted greatly, "She came to class on Friday normally."

"Looks like she won't be able to come today," Kathy said. "Are you sure she came to class on Friday?"

"Absolutely," the director was very sure, "she is my teaching assistant, I will not remember wrongly, and I also assigned homework to everyone through her."

"Thank you very much," Shen Lie said lightly, "I think you probably know if your teaching assistant has any good friends?"

The director thought for a while, "Joanna and Christine, they have a very good relationship."

Casey frowned slightly: "Joanna? Are you sure?"

"Of course," said the director, "they look like one person. In today's universities, it's rare to see girls from the upper class in Manhattan and girls from small towns in Atlanta having such a good relationship, so I remember it clearly."

Just as Casey was about to continue to say something, Shen Lie signaled him to wait a moment, and he smiled slightly at the director: "Can I trouble you to find Joanna for us?"

"Today we will talk about the calculation of GDP and CPI, and their relationship with the inflation rate—"

The knock on the door interrupted the economics professor's tirade, and the teaching director poked his head in: "Sorry to interrupt, professor, but I need to find Joanna."

The professor is very kind: "Of course, good people are always busy—go ahead, Joanna."

The tall and beautiful girl smiled at the professor, got up from her seat and walked towards the front door, passing by the seat of a boy with a small mole on his chin, the handsome boy reached out and touched her hand teasingly, she winked back , out of the classroom.

"We meet again," she saw Shen Lie's cold face as soon as she left the classroom, "Let's talk about Peggy."

"Peggy? I don't understand, what does it have to do with Peggy?" Joanna frowned, "She didn't come to class today, I just sent her a text message to ask what happened, but she hasn't replied to me yet. "

In an empty classroom specially prepared for them by the director, although Joanna was questioned by three men, she was very calm and behaved gracefully.

"Well, she won't reply to your texts anymore," Kathy said, putting the photo of Paige's tragic death in front of her. "Remember this body found at the party you threw?"

"I remember, but it has nothing to do with it... Wait a minute, don't you mean," she suddenly reacted, her face turned pale, and subconsciously stood up, "No, no, it's impossible! I saw her on Saturday! "

"Calm down, Joanna," Dinowin said, "You mentioned your party, did you invite Peggy?"

"Of course I invited, she is my best friend!" Joanna widened her eyes, "But she said she was not feeling well and wanted to rest at home, and I didn't force it... Oh my God," said the arrogant girl Burying her face in her hands, she shrugged her shoulders, "I should have called her! I should have..."

Kathy hesitated, then put a hand on her shoulder and patted her reassuringly.

Dino then asked: "Then do you know why Peggy appeared in the villa where you hosted the party?"

"I don't know..." Joanna whispered, "That villa is not my family's, it was rented temporarily."

"Joanna," Shen Lie said, "do you know who else is better than Peggy besides you?"

"Well... Christine," she said calmly, "and her new boyfriend, Luke."

"Thank you," Dino said, "If there is any problem, we will contact you again, okay?"

Joanna nodded: "Any time is fine, after all, this is the only thing I can do for Peggy."

Shen Lie caught a glimpse of Ning Yuan looking at Joanna with no expression on his face.

Back in the office, Shen Lie closed the door, looked at Ning Yuan who was lying on the sofa, sat next to him, Ning Yuan rubbed himself on the sofa consciously, and put his furry head on Shen Lie's lap.

Shen Lie inserted his hand into Ning Yuan's soft black hair, and snorted twice: "What are you thinking? You were in a trance just now."

Ning Yuan narrowed his eyes comfortably: "I don't know, I just have a very strange feeling, I can't say it."

Shen Lie said softly, "We'll talk about it after you think it over."

Ning Yuan hummed, raised his right hand above his head and gently held Shen Lie's hand.

"Excuse me, I'll find Officer Barron."

A voice came, and Kathy looked up, and saw a middle-aged couple walking in, and it was the husband who was questioning.

"I am, you are..."

"We are Peggy Fitch's parents," Mr. Fitch said, "we came here on the first flight when we received your call."

"Oh yes, sit down first." Casey stood up and asked them to sit down, but was refused.

Mr. Fitch seemed to have aged a lot overnight, and Casey noticed that his hands were shaking: "We want to see Peggy."

Casey organized her language and tried to be tactful: "I hope you can be prepared, Peggy... not very good."

Mrs. Fitch grabbed her husband's arm at once: "What do you mean it's not very good?"

Before Kathy could answer, she took out a picture of Peggy from her bag. In the photo, Peggy was smiling happily, her blond hair was shining like the sun, she didn't have Joanna's eye-catching charm, but she had a kind of The freshness and sunshine of the girl next door.

Mrs. Fitch eagerly handed the photo to Casey: "Officer, are you sure it's Peggy? Look at this photo, is it possible that you made a mistake? My baby can't... no possible!"

"...I'm so sorry, ma'am," Kathy didn't know what to say, any words were now pale, "I'm really sorry, my condolences change."

Mrs. Fitch was paralyzed on Mr. Fitch as if all her strength had been taken away, tears kept streaming from her eyes: "No, no, my baby..."

In fact, how could she not know that this is the truth?

The daughter's phone call never came through again, and the school said she didn't go to class.Just how to believe emotionally?Do you believe that the daughter you raised for 18 years just died like this?The night before yesterday, he was alive and laughing happily in the video, but today he turned into a cold corpse on the autopsy table.

In that cold world, can she still feel love?Will she still have memories of them?

Can the angel who smiled brightly in the sun come back to them again?

Casey paused for a moment before saying: "My suggestion, don't go to see Peggy, just let her live in your memory like this." He put the photo back in Mrs. Fitch's hands, She said softly: "This is what you should remember, what she looks like."
