My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1871

After what had happened with Edwin, the Paramount Criminal Police Team once again was shrouded in gloom.

Jefferson's arrival and the quick solving of the rotten corpse case made the other officers have high hopes for him.

The whole team originally thought the dismemberment case would be solved since Jefferson was around, even if it lacked clues. However, the fact was that as smart as Jefferson was, facing a case without leads, he could only proceed like ordinary people. He went on the streets to ask around, hoping to find some clues.

It didn't matter if they could find any useful clues. The most important thing was that they must not stop looking for evidence.

Of course, they didn't just walk around randomly. They had a plan and acted out accordingly. They split into two groups and went on separately.

Jefferson led a team and visited the relatives of the deceased couple while Quill led the other team to visit the close friends of the deceased couple. It took two days for them to finish talking to everyone. Just when the chances looked dim,

Quill's team made a huge discovery.

The team had learned a lesson from Edwin's incident. They did not get excited immediately because of the major discovery. Quill did not even report the discovery to Jefferson. Everyone knew that if they continued investigating, it was possible that they wouldn't even be able to find the killer but just another innocent person.

This time, the new suspect was Aaron Ziglar, who had a good relationship with the deceased couple. Moreover, he was the deceased couple's only child's godfather. The two families had a relationship closer than any of the blood relatives of the deceased couple.

The last time they visited, the officers asked Aaron's wife, Janet Moore about Aaron's whereabouts. At that time, Janet told them that Aaron had been working outstation for a month.

The other neighbors could also prove that Aaron was not at home. Then, the officers also went to the railway department to verify it. It was confirmed that Aaron had departed Chatterton Town by high- speed rail, and because of that reason they didn't investigate any further.

This time, when they revisited the Ziglar Village, Aaron was at home. When the police checked again, Aaron's reply was the same as Janet's. He told the police that he had just returned home two days ago.

However, based on Quill's experience, he thought that something was wrong with Aaron's testimony but he could not tell the specifics. Therefore, he asked the railway department to find out when Aaron returned to Chatterton Town. However, they could not find any record of him returning to Chatterton Town by train.

Therefore, Quill went to several other transportation departments to check it out. However, he could not find the records of Aaron's return to Chatterton Town, whether by plane, ship, or car... Quill believed that Aaron was suspicious, but he still could not confirm how he had returned to Chatterton Town.

Another two hours later, Quill received news from an online car-hailing department. It appeared that Aaron had avoided all means of transportation that required identification by booking a car online with an unverified phone number. The officer from the transportation department found him through the picture that was taken inside the car that Aaron had taken.
