CHAPTER 142Mr. Donovan and Maria came out of the VVIP room, where Wilson Blake took his time to fall back asleep. Liliana quickly prepared treatment for Wilson's condition. The man had made it through the critical period amidst the heated political atmosphere. The business world was not doing well and Wilson's recovery was like a breath of fresh air for all his colleagues.Maria looked up after checking her cell phone. "All the partners are calling me, Sir!""Have they heard about Mr. Blake's recovery? How do they know?" Mr. Donovan looked at Maria, but she just shook her head. The business world is tough, you never realize who is on your side and who will play the role of spy and traitor. Maria then raised her cell phone in the air. She shook it lightly. "They even keep calling, it seems they are very curious about Mr. Blake's health condition, Mr. Donovan. What should we do now?"Mr. Donovan looked down, removing his face from Maria. He seemed to think for quite a while before fina

CHAPTER 144Alicia looked at the crime scene. The field forensics team had already removed the body of the man Nicholas was talking about, he had found nothing but the location of the body which had been circled by a yellow police line. Nicholas asked Alicia to pull over because it was a dangerous place and Alicia agreed to wait for Nicholas on the other side.The crashing waves on the beach momentarily filled the void in Alicia's chest. It had been a long time since she had felt the fresh breeze of nature. But being on the beach when the air was cold, made Nicholas worried about Alicia's condition. Nicholas quickly caught up with Alicia, then took off his warm coat to cover Alicia's outerwear."You should use this, it's cold outside, you'd better wait in the car," Nicholas said, then invited Alicia into the car.They sat next to each other as Nicholas began to rub his cold palms together. His face seemed to be still wandering around looking at the surrounding scenery from inside the

CHAPTER 146Their focus turned to Hendrick, who returned with a wealth of information. "I found a missing person's report similar to our victim's but covered in contradictions. The person's whereabouts seem to have been carefully erased. After some digging, it's Jill and her daughter."The trio gathered again, maps lying on the table, tracing the topography of the coastal cliffs. "There's a remote area," Hendrick pointed, "rarely accessed, overlooking the beach. If the victim was thrown from there, it might explain the cut-off of access to a commonly visited tourist spot."A shiver of revelation ran through Nicholas. "What if this isn't just a murder? What if this is a message?" The pieces seemed to align, painting a sinister picture of calculated manipulation.Noel nodded, determination etched on his face. "Let's explore that side of the cliff. There might be something we're missing, a clue that connects everything."Nicholas took a deep breath. He looked at his two partners in turn,

CHAPTER 148Alicia sat enjoying a bowl of blueberry and strawberry yogurt sprinkled with raisins while watching television. The weather outside was unfriendly and Alicia could only stay in her own flat. Occasionally glancing at the cell phone on the table, she waited for a message from Nicholas. It had been a whole day since Nicholas had left, but he hadn't texted or called.Alicia's strong intuition told her that something was up. But Alicia chose to hold back this time. She stirred the yogurt into the bowl and started eating it. The television shows no longer interested her. Alicia changed the channel several times and still found no interesting shows. It was just gossip and entertainment shows that didn't calm Alicia down.After finishing her snack, Alicia went to the kitchen and cleaned her hands. She then went to her room and locked the door. The large windows in her room were not covered with curtains, so Alicia could see the snowfall that fell on the earth that day. The time on

CHAPTER 150Noel is initially confused by Nicholas' request, but Noel also believes that Nicholas must have thought about this seriously. This series of serial killings could be connected to each other, and they needed to find the common thread to put the missing pieces together."None of this started this year," Nicholas said thoughtfully. He pointed at the large white board in front of him and sighed. "It all started when we solved the death case at Golden High School a few years ago."Hendrick and Peter, who were not handling the case, could only listen. They had heard about the case but weren't really involved as they were just regular cops. Meanwhile, Noel cocked his head when he saw Nicholas. Nicholas nodded reassuringly."Yes, that's right. Since all of this is related to Alicia, then everything should start from there. Golden High School!" Nicholas snapped his fingers in the air, then pointed at Peter. "Peter, please get the Golden High School serial killer file, it's on the c
