novelProve John Innocent
| ← Ch.197 | Ch.199 → |
Noah hesitated for a while and looked away. Looking at the people coming and going in front of him, he closed his eyes and finally agreed.
"All right.
You have three days. If you can't prove John's innocence in three days, I will go hunt him down myself." Noah's voice sounded a little helpless, but the underlying note of resentment was unmistakable. Someone had murdered his aunt, his aunt who loved him the most in the world. He was more hell-bent on finding out the truth than anyone else.
'After all, Aunt Kristina likes and trusts in Nini.
Three days. Three days is all I can give her, ' Noah thought.
Nina drew a deep breath and bowed to Noah solemnly."Thank you, Noah, " she muttered.
To be honest, she did not think that she could solve the case in three days.
But she had no choice. She had to try for John's sake. She had to find out the truth.
She must rule out John as the prime suspect.
After getting Noah's approval, the first thing Nina did was to try and contact John. She needed to know where he was last night between nine o'clock and half past nine.
She called John several times and sent him several WeChat messages, but she could not get in touch with him.
Then, Nina decided ern."Are you not feeling well?"
Immersed in her own thoughts, Nina did not even hear Helen.
On the other hand, Helen mistakenly thought that Nina was sick. She was suddenly nervous."Oh my God. I have to call Mr. Shi and ask him to send a doctor to check on you."
As soon as Nina heard Helen refer to John, she reacted quickly.
"You can contact him?" She could not get in touch with him since yesterday.
'Couldn't Mrs. Shi get in touch with Mr. Shi?
How could that be possible? Mr. Shi stuck to his wife like gum every day.
Oh, my God! Mrs. Shi must be really sick. She must be hallucinating or something, ' Helen thought.
She hurriedly made a phone call to John."Mr. Shi, Mrs. Shi is sick. She is seriously sick..."
Nina quickly stepped forward, grabbed the phone, and barked, "Where are you, John? I want to see you right now."
The line was dead for quite a while. Nina thought there was something wrong with the signal."Hello? Can you hear me?" she asked.
A voice from the other end of the line answered, but Nina did not recognize it."Mr. Shi is busy, Mrs. Shi, " it said.
Then, the owner of the voice hung up.
Nina tried phoning John again, but his phone was already powered off.
