Adam was dressed in a military uniform. When he and Anthea entered the building, they were received by a policeman.
After the two of them went up to the third floor, they were led into a room.
The room was not a big one, and there were several black sofas near the wall. There was also a row of desks, on which a number of computers were placed. Some policemen were sitting in front of the desks, and they were wearing earphones. On another wall, there was a gigantic piece of glass. Through the transparent glass, people can see clearly what's happening in a little room next door.
Anthea immediately realized that this must be a surveillance room.
Like plots depicted in movies, the glass was actually made of special material. It allowed people in the surveillance room to see clearly what's happening in the interrogation room, namely, the little room, while people in the interrogation room couldn't see through the glass.
The police officer asked them to sit down on the sofa and fetched two cups of water for them.
"General Chin, Ms. Lee, please wait for a moment. Soon, the fifth interrogation of Madam Jiles will be carried out!"
Adam nodded. "Okay."
Anthea was a little surprised. She hadn't expected that Madam Jiles would be interrogated so many times. Her face looked serious.
However, thinking of the fact that her grandfather's death was not caused by an ordinary car accident, but a deliberate murder, she became very angry.
She was especially angry because Madam Jiles was identified as one of the suspects.
She was Master Hsu's wife!
Even if she was not Master Hsu's first wife, the two of them had lived together for so many years!
If it weren't for the malicious intention of Madam Jiles, Master Hsu would not have been hit to death by a car when he chased Anthea out of the coffee shop. If the Old Master was still alive now, she and Adam could fulfill their filial duties!
Adam had no pity for his mother-in-law at all.
The Chin family and the Hsu family were connected by his marriage. However, his wife, Rory Hsu, died in a car crash three months after the marriage. For this reason, their marriage was only nominal. What's more, so many years had passed. He only respected
Master Hsu in the Hsu family, but the old man had also died.
If it weren't for Madam Jiles' evil conspiracy, he and his little girl wouldn't have to be separated for six years!
At this time, the door of the interrogation room was opened.
Anthea stood up immediately and got close to the glass.
Although the case had not been finally judged by the court, Madam Jiles was wearing a suspect's clothes, as what she might have done was grave crime. At this time, wearing handcuffs, she was taken into the interrogation room by a policewoman.
In just a few days, Madam Jiles had become much more haggard.
She was no longer as arrogant and mean as she used to be as female master of the Hsu family. Her hair was messy, and the wrinkles on her face were deeper. She looked as if she had aged several years.
When Anthea thought of the scene that her dear grandpa was lying in a pool of blood, she felt that justice had been done! It served her right!
In order to snatch all the properties and wealth of the Hsu family, Madam Jiles actually conspired to kill her husband!
After Madam was brought in, the police officer sitting opposite her began to formally interrogate her for the crimes she might have committed six years ago.
The police officer knocked on the desk and said sharply, "Ms. Tiles, You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be a testimony in court! Now that both eye-witnesses and material evidence are available, I advise you to confess your crime! Otherwise, we will directly report this case to the procuratorate and go through the judicial procedures..."
"No, I won't admit any crime!" Madam Tiles shook her head and shouted like a crazy old woman, "I can't confess anything. I am not guilty!"
Anthea frowned and finally understood why she had been interrogated so many times.
It seemed that Madam Tiles had refused to cooperate with the police to handle cases, and she also had been very rude to them. However, the authority of the law was not to be provoked. No matter what happened, she would still be punished.
At this time, the door behind the police officer was opened, and a subordinate policeman came in and reported, "Captain, Linzell said that he could confront Ms. Tiles now!"
