companion ghost

Jerry and Gloria followed the search, and Peggy's boyfriend Luke knocked on the door of his house. A middle-aged Filipino maid opened the door and asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Jerry and Gloria flashed their police badges, and the Filipino maid was taken aback: "Officers? I'm sorry that Mr. and Mrs. Morgan are not here. They went to a charity gala."

"It's okay," Jerry smiled, "We're here to find Luke."

"Mr. Morgan?" The Filipino maid was even more surprised, "Why did the police find him?"

"Just some general questions," Gloria reassured her, "We just want to know about his classmates."

At this time, Luke came to the door by himself: "What's the problem?"

"This is the police officers," the Filipino maid hurriedly said, "They are looking for you."

The handsome boy with curly black hair was obviously taken aback: "Looking for me?"

"Yes," Jerry Wen said, "just a few routine questions, can we go in? After all, standing here is a bit too conspicuous." After finishing speaking, he blinked his eyes.

"Of course please come in," Luke opened the door wide, leading Jerry and Gloria to the living room, "I don't know what it is?"

"It's like this," Gloria sat on the sofa and thought about her words, "First of all, we are very sorry that your girlfriend, Peggy Fitch, was murdered."

"What did you say?" Luke was startled. "Murder? How is that possible?"

"We are very sorry, but we hope you can help us find the person who did this insane thing," Jerry looked at him sincerely, "Are you willing to cooperate?"

"Anything I can do," Luke said, still looking shocked, "I can't believe it, Peppa? Why?"

"Believe me, we also want to know very much," Gloria said. She took out a pen and notebook and prepared to record. "When was the last time you contacted Peggy?"

"Well...it should be last Monday."

"Really?" Gloria was a little surprised. "It's already Monday today. Aren't you guys in love? Haven't contacted each other for a week? Have you had a fight?"

"No, no," Luke hesitated a little, looking down at his hands, "Peggy...is a good girl, she is not clingy or willful, and never asks me to accompany her. It's just this time I'm busy with the Yule Ball, so we don't see much time."

"So..." Gloria bit the pen cap subconsciously, "So you are also a cadre of the student union?"

"No, I'm the president of the fraternity. This Christmas ball is jointly organized by the fraternity and the student union, so I'm also one of the leaders." Luke explained.

"Then your Yule Ball is going to be great, right? It's only two months away and start planning," Jerry changed the subject, "Did Peggy tell you if she had a harasser recently? Or did she Did you get into any trouble?"

"No, Peggy is just a very ordinary girl, very good, not the kind of troubled person," Luke sighed, "I still can't believe it."

"It's hard," Jerry reassured him, and then asked tentatively, "Trust me this question is just a procedure, we have to exclude everyone—where are you on Sunday night from [-] to [-]?"

Luke raised his head suddenly, with a look of disbelief: "You doubt me?"

Gloria said: "You heard what the police officer said, this is really just a procedure."

"Well, during that time period..." Luke thought for a while, "I should be discussing preparations for the Christmas ball with you at the school's student union office."

"That's great," Jerry said. "At least you have an alibi, so we can eliminate your suspicion."

Luke subconsciously touched the small mole on his chin: "You can ask for a room full of proofs."

After getting out of Luke's house and getting into the police car, Jerry looked at the thoughtful Gloria: "Do you have any thoughts? I can hear the sound of your mind turning when I am next to you."

Gloria frowned: "A couple who are passionately in love, even if Peggy is not clingy, even if Luke is busy, one college, one grade, one major, the last contact was a week ago? Now this In the information age, you haven’t called or sent a text message in a week? Is this a thing of the past?”

Jerry laughed: "Both parties in a relationship need their own lives and space, little girl."

Gloria rolled her eyes: "Don't treat me like a Lolita preaching, I'm 25 and I'm not five years old, please."

Jerry shook his head and drove back to the police station.

Over there, Jerry and Gloria went to find Luke. Here, Kathy Dino and prosecutor Shen went to the student dormitory but found nothing. The dormitory manager said that she moved out and lived with Christine. .

"I should have thought of it earlier," Casey said depressed. "She is already three months pregnant, and it must be inconvenient to live in the dormitory."

Shen Lie was angry: "The baby is dead and you are here to nurse. Why didn't you say anything before you went to the dormitory building?"

Casey: "..."

Why are you so annoying!

Ning Yuan: "Hahahahahahaha!"

Sitting in the back seat of the car, Shen Lie saw Ning Yuan leaning back and forth with a smile, not knowing what was so funny, he had no choice but to drag him into his arms and poke his belly.

Ning Yuan, who was poked in the stomach: "Hahahahahaha, it's so itchy, don't poke!"

On the contrary, Shen Lie became interested, he simply hugged Ning Yuan up and began to pinch and poke Ning Yuan's belly.

Ning Yuan burst into tears.

It was also fortunate that Casey didn't look in the rearview mirror while talking to Dino, otherwise they would have seen Lawyer Shen poking the air and smiling.

The picture is so beautiful that I tremble just thinking about it.

The car drove to the downstairs of the apartment shared by Peggy and Christine, Shen Lie finally let go of Ning Yuan who was already laughing, and the latter gave him a resentful look, it was really annoying to death!

Three people and one ghost got on the elevator with their IDs, and knocked on the door of the apartment. The door was quickly opened. It was opened by a girl with clean short hair and good-looking facial features. Ning Yuan guessed that this should be Christine is gone.Sure enough, after revealing her identity, she said her name.

"We're here because Paige—"

"I guessed it." Before Kathy could finish speaking, Christine interrupted him, pursing his lips tightly, "Before you guys came, I planned to go to the police station to report my disappearance, but now it seems unnecessary .”

Dino looked at her and asked, "You two have a good relationship?"

"Yes, very very good."

"Then... do you know she's pregnant?" Dino asked tentatively.

Christine smiled wryly, and pointed to the crib and various baby products in the room: "What do you think?"

Shen Lie looked around and asked, "So you were the one who took care of Peggy during her pregnancy?"

Christine looked sad: "We take care of each other, Peggy... is very warm, very comfortable with her, she doesn't want to trouble others, if I didn't forcefully leave the dormitory, she wouldn't want to live with me and let me help her."

"Have you noticed any unusual things in recent days? Like someone following or peeping?" Casey asked.

Christine shook her head: "As I said, almost everyone likes Peggy, I can't believe who would... I'm sorry." She burst into tears as she spoke, and she couldn't cry.

"It's okay." Dino put his arms around her shoulders gently, and patted her comfortingly. "Do you know her boyfriend Luke Morgan?"

"I know too well." Strangely, a sneer appeared on Christine's face.

Shen Lie heard the irony in the words, raised his eyebrows: "You don't like him?"

"Listen," Kristen wiped away her tears as she took the tissue Dino handed her, "I don't mean to speak ill of people behind their backs, it's just that Morgan... obviously he's just playing Peggy, he's not serious .”

"Really?" Kathy put on a surprised expression, "We heard they're dating."

"Pull it down," Christine's sneer became more obvious, "Three months ago, Morgan even had a tense relationship with Peggy, just because of a recommended spot for a course, Morgan wanted to get that spot, but obviously the professor liked Peggy more, I I swear I heard him pass by Paige whispering tell her to go home! And then? All of a sudden he started chasing Paige like crazy? If he wasn't just for fun I'd take his head off and give him a ball Kick!"

Shen Lie frowned slightly: "Haven't you said these things to Peggy?"

"What should I say?" Christine pushed back her middle-parted bangs irritably, "Peggy is far from being weak as she looks, she is actually very stubborn, as long as it is something she believes in, she must do it to the end, I conceal I mentioned it once, but she didn't listen at all, and insisted on giving birth to the child, she even planned to tell Morgan about the pregnancy at the Christmas ball, even if Morgan didn't want the child at that time, she couldn't get rid of it!"

After stepping out of Peggy and Christine's apartment, Kathy hurriedly said: "I went to the security office and asked for nearly two months of surveillance video." Then he ran to the security office. Just as Shen Lie was about to get in the car, he felt Ning Yuan Pulling his hand, he glanced at Ning Yuan, who pointed to it: "Do you think this kind of surveillance video on the street is useful?"

Shen Lie messed up Ning Yuan's black hair: "It's very useful." After speaking, he pointed to several cameras on the street with Dino, and Dino called the technical department and asked them to come over and ask for the surveillance video of the street.

Seeing that Dino had already bypassed the driver's seat first, Shen Lie squeezed Ning Yuan's face: "You are the most useful,"

Ning Yuan smiled.
