My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1862

The police did not ferret out the culprit of the decomposed body, but the suicide case from 20 years ago got solved. It was somewhat an additional reward. However, Jefferson did not slack for a moment. He was still leading the team in solving the current case.

There were two suspects, Pablo Black and Salman Zellweger. However, the police still lacked the most crucial evidence to prove how the murderer had moved the body to the rooftop of Peaksky Building.

Just as Jefferson was looking for clues, Quill brought good news. Pablo mentioned that the janitor, Salman found out about Yannis's death 20 years ago.

Salman found out that Yannis didn't jump off the building on her own but was murdered by Pablo. All these years, Salman would blackmail Pablo and most of Pablo's salary was given to him, which was one of the reasons why Pablo's wife took their son with her and left him.

Pablo scoffed, "Salman Zellweger, that old thing. He looked like a decent person on the outside, but who knows how much dirty tricks he has done behind everyone's backs. I had to kiss his a*s over all these years."

"Salman Zellweger?" Quill remembered that he was the one who called the police. When Jefferson questioned him harshly on the rooftop, he insisted that he had not killed anyone.

Pablo nodded. "Just a month ago, Salman called me in the middle of the night and begged me to help him one last time. He said that as long as I helped him that time, he would never ask me for money or ask me for help again. At that time, I wanted him dead. When I heard that it would be the last time helping him and that he wouldn't pester me anymore, I agreed to his request."

Quill did not interrupt and let Pablo continue.

Pablo added, "He told me at the time that he had left some cleaning equipment on the rooftop and requested my help to open the door for him. I remember it was in the evening on the 10th. I had just opened the door for him to clean in the daytime. I even questioned him why he needed to get the cleaning equipment at night. I wanted to reject him, but he insisted. I felt that something was wrong so after opening the door for him, I hid somewhere nearby to see what he was up to. A while later, I saw him dragging a black bag to the rooftop. The bag seemed heavy, which made me suspicious. I went forward to take a look and found out that it was a dead body."

Quill interrogated, "Since you know that Salman was the one who dumped the body, why didn't you call the police at that time?"

Pablo answered, "Salman had evidence of me planning Yannis' death. If I called the police, he would definitely expose me. Do you think I would still dare to call the police? Salman knew this as well, which was why he would do such a thing in front of me. After that day, since I have evidence of him killing someone, he stopped asking me for money. Both of us decided to not interfere with each others' lives anymore and keep quiet about the murders we've committed."

Quill asked again, "What evidence do you have to prove that Salman dumped the body?"

Pablo assured, "I have evidence."

Quill continued, "What evidence?"

At the mention of evidence, Pablo was a little complacent. Since he had been blackmailed for decades, it was finally time to vent his anger. "Salman is very cunning. If I didn't have any evidence of him dumping the body, he would certainly continue blackmailing me. I took a video of him disposing the body in secret."

Quill questioned, "Where is the video?"

Pablo replied, "I saved it on a USB drive."
