Awakening the War God novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150 Question and Answer

After extraction, separation, and comparison, the officers quickly completed their investigation.

With the results in hand, Orville Maxwell, the head of the police station, reported, "Mr. Sullivan, aside from your fingerprints, we have extracted half a fingerprint from the password lock. After analysis, it should be the fingerprint of the left index finger."

Needless to say, it was left by the thief.

Upon hearing the report, Barry said with certainty, "I can confirm that besides me, no one else has touched the safe. If there are other fingerprints, they must belong to the thief."

It was his private possession, and no one else had touched it.

He wouldn't even let the cleaning lady touch it.

Therefore, it could only be left by the thief who stole the Blood Scripture.

"The left index finger?" Gabriel pondered. "Could it be that the thief is left-handed?"

The fingerprint belonged to the person who stole the Blood Scripture. That was for sure.

However, it would be very difficult to identify the thief from this half fingerprint.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mr. Sullivan, we can let Mr. Maxwell take the fingerprint back for comparison and see if we can find any clues.

"Also, I noticed that there are security screens outside the windows, which are undamaged. The thief should have come in through the main entrance.

"When I entered just now, I saw that the corridor had surveillance cameras, which could capture the entrance to the office. We can retrieve the footage of the suspicious period and investigate each person who entered the office one by one.

"By using these two methods simultaneously, we can ensure we find new leads."

The protective screens outside the windows were sturdy, so the person who stole the Blood Scripture could only enter through the main entrance.

For such a highly confidential place as the State Assembly, it was not an easy task to commit theft.

He strongly suspected that it was someone Barry knew.

After thinking for a moment, Barry nodded and said, "Alright, do it your way."

After that, the two investigations proceeded simultaneously.

Orville took the half fingerprint back to the police station for verification.

The Security Department of the state assembly retrieved the surveillance footage in the corridor, from the moment Barry took back the Blood Scripture until it was stolen, recording everyone who entered Barry's office during that time.

This task wasn't so difficult.

About an hour later, the Security Department handed Barry a list of names.

Surprisingly, as a provincial senator, Barry was quite busy.

During that period, apart from Dale coming in and out, eleven other people had visited Barry's office.

Most of them were members of the assembly.

After reading the list, Barry nodded and said, "That's right. These people fit my memory. I know all of them, but none of them are left-handed."

Subconsciously, he began to use the inference of left-handedness to narrow down the selection.

However, there were no results.

"Mr. Sullivan, may I take a look at the list?" Gabriel asked.

There were no names that couldn't be seen on the list, so Barry handed it to him and said, "Sure, but I guess you probably don't know any of them."

Gabriel took the list and read it. Indeed, they were all unfamiliar names.

But when he saw the last two names, his spirits lifted immediately. "Tyler and Pablo! Have these two also been to your office?"

"Who?" Santos was surprised and snatched the list from Gabriel's hands.

After looking at it for a while, he said, "Could it be that these two who stole the Blood Scripture?"

Gabriel narrowed his eyes, but he said nothing.

He also suspected it was them.

After all, based on the clue provided by Joseph, it was inferred that Tyler had a connection to the Davis family's cultural relics case.

However, there was no concrete evidence, and Jack didn't mention Tyler.

Now, looking at this list, Gabriel felt even more suspicious of Tyler.

"Mr. Sullivan, what did Tyler and Pablo come to see you for?" Gabriel asked.

After thinking it through, he realized that he needed to find a breakthrough from Barry.

Barry replied, "Well, this matter is related to you. At that time, Mr. Brooks came to my office with his grandson, furious and complaining that you had beaten his grandson. He couldn't tolerate you anymore."

After a moment of hesitation, he continued, "Then he said that he would act against you. He hoped that I would turn a blind eye and not interfere."

Upon hearing that, Gabriel couldn't help but sneer, "How ridiculous! Only children would file a complaint."

The conflict between him and Tyler had almost reached an irreconcilable point.
