Chapter 23 Telephone Murder

By the time the police arrived at the accident site of the car accident, it was already half an hour later.

Have you found anything? A burly man in casual clothes got out of the car and asked the policeman in police uniform.

His name is Dietrich, and he is the lieutenant sheriff of the Third Division in the North District of Chicago. As a federal country, the United States has not had a unified police rank system since the founding of the nation, and it is common for the ranks to be mixed.

The current Chicago area is not as big as the future, so there are only 13 precincts.

And Dietrich, the lieutenant and sheriff, is already the second-in-command of the third precinct, and he is considered a high-weight.

There are only some bloodstains, ruts, footprints and some bloody projectiles at the scene, which should be deer hunting bullets, but there are no bullet casings, and no cars and bodies have been found, and it is very strange that there are clearly traces of two cars at the scene, but we I only found the rut where one car left, and the other car seems to have never existed. The policeman on the side said with a rather unsightly expression.

Where are the witnesses? asked Lieutenant Dietrich.

I found the person who called the police, but the other party only saw a figure with a gun from a distance, and did not dare to approach, so it is not even clear whether the murderer is a man or a woman. The police sighed helplessly.

Lieutenant Dietrich nodded, knowing in his heart why the policeman sighed.

There are no corpses, no murder weapons, no witnesses, and not even any decent evidence. In this era when detection methods are still relatively scarce, it is basically a case without a head.

Let's clear up and leave. I'll talk to the director. After checking the situation at the scene, Dietrich ordered the team to close. There are too many similar headless cases these days, and the police are not willing to spend too much time. Lots of energy on this.

And at the same time when the police searched to no avail and had no choice but to close the team.

Evanston, Josh, who had changed clothes, was driving the Lincoln Continental that Margot helped to buy, and Shi Shiran's had just arrived home.

Seeing Packard parked in front of the house, Josie knew that Margot was in his house now... Josie had left her a spare key when she moved before.

How's it going? Josie's side just got off the bus, and Tommy next door happened to be coming out of the house. After seeing Josie, he came over and asked.

A little problem has been solved, thank you for your reminder. Josie replied.

Of course, it is impossible to say exactly how to solve it.

Tommy is also well aware of the reason, so he didn't ask any further questions. He accepted Josie's thanks calmly, nodded and turned back to the house.

Josie sighed softly as Tommy entered the house.

In fact, if you look closely, you will find that his hands are still slightly trembling.

The reason is simple, he killed.

This is his first murder.

The scene of a shot being shot on a person, and the flesh and blood flying, still lingered in his mind.

Even the bloody body, the murder weapon, the shotgun, the two vehicles involved, and other evidence were all lying quietly in the system warehouse at this time.

There is no mysterious BT pleasure.

Not too much fear either.

Some are just a little nervous and confused...

Josie still doesn't understand why he was able to shoot so decisively and deal with the scene so calmly.

Josie, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time. Just when Josh was in a daze, Margot opened the door and came out. Seeing him in a daze at the door, he immediately asked strangely.

Then she saw that Josie was looking at him strangely.

What's wrong? My makeup is off? Margot was a little uncomfortable when Josie looked at her.

Then, before he could let out an exclamation, Josie carried him into the house.

When Margot came back to his senses again, he was already lying on the big bed in the bedroom without a trace.

Lying in Josie's arms, looking at his handsome, slightly immature face, Margot felt very strange and complicated.

But... it's also very enjoyable.

This was something she had never felt from Tony Wendis.

What happened? Margot asked gently, stroking Josie's face.

Your husband sent someone to follow you for a day and took a lot of photos. Josie replied lightly while stroking Margot's body.

No wonder some people say that women are the best emotion regulators.

After some wild lingering, the negative emotions accumulated in his body were completely released and his original calmness was restored.

Then he told Margot about what Tony Wendys sent to follow.

Josie didn't have the habit of being an unsung hero.

Since you have paid, you must say it, otherwise the ghost will know what you have done.

Of course, the murder was skipped, and he just said that he bought the stalker with money.

What? How dare he? Hearing Josie's words, Margot became uneasy for a moment, and said angrily.

Hehe, why not? He not only dares to send someone to follow you, he even dares to send someone to kill you, or will you be swept out of the house after waiting for the divorce? A sneer flashed across Josie's mouth, of course, this was a mockery aimed at It's Tony Wendis, not Margot next to him. I have to say that he is really decisive in this matter. As long as you die, your huge wealth will belong to him. already.

But why would Josie know about Tony Wendis' plans?

You must know that Joe Barbaro was only implementing the first tracking plan of Tony Wendis, and the follow-up plan did not tell Joe Barbaro at all.

So Josie should have no idea that Tony Wendis wanted to kill Margot.

So why would Josie say that?

Because just when he was lingering with Margot just now, Josie finally remembered where the familiar feeling of seeing Margot for the first time came from.

Margot, Margot, a rich daughter.

Tony, Tony, tennis star.

It's a character from the Hitchcock movie, Phone Murder.

Josie only knew about the movie because of the actress who played Margot, Grace Kelly!

When it comes to famous Hollywood female stars in the 1950s, most of the first thoughts that come to mind are either Audrey Hepburn or Marilyn Monroe.

But in fact, in the 1950s, there was a female movie star of the same age, and the limelight was even more than the two.

That person is Grace Kelly.

And the reason why her popularity in later generations is not as high as the other two is very simple.

Because the actress just entered her peak period after she became famous, she married into the royal family of Monaco and became a legendary princess.

In the hearts of Monegasques, her existence is no less than Diana's status in the hearts of the British.

It's just that Josie watched such a movie by chance, and was not very impressed, so she couldn't remember it for a long time.

But after thinking about it, Josie finally realized that what he had traveled through might not be the World War II period in the original world, but a parallel world.

And the current situation is very different from the situation in the movie.

For example, the background of the film is set in London, England, not Chicago.

In addition, there is a very important character missing, that is Margo's writer lover Mark in the movie.

But Josh thinks about his relationship with Margot now...it seems like he's taken this guy's place.

There is also the time when the story of the film took place, which was already in the early 1950s, more than ten years later than now.
