Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 

Officer Landon, do you suspect this is the scene of the first incident?a colleague asked. Zion nodded

Steve stared pointedly at the door and then turned to start looking around

The welfare home was large and had been abandoned for many years. Earlier, the police had searched it several times before but found nothing

Steve picked up a stick and began searching everywhere. I followed behind Zion anxiously as well

Was I about to be discovered? Nobody could escape justice. If the police were diligent, they should be able to find the scene of the first incident

Michael’s expression was also grim as he followed the police in silence

MikeJack’s voice trembled, hesitating

Speak.Michael frowned. He shot Jack a warning look

The monitoring device in my garagehe trailed off

He continued, I checked the computer yesterday and found a recordingfrom the night of the 15th… 

Not only did Jack’s voice tremble, but his legs too. He kept hesitating on whether he should speak. Upon seeing Michael, who called off his wedding and came to find Stephanie, Jack suddenly panicked

I could tell that Jack was truly scared. He feared the police investigation might lead to him

I’m sorry, Mike. I didn’t know, I really had no ideaJack handed the USB drive to Michael and retreated in a panic

Michael’s expression darkened as he turned to look at Zion

The police were still searching the welfare home, and everyone was tense. Even the police dogs were 

there

What happened on the night of the 15th?Zion murmured and used the USB drive on the police 

computer

MikeMike, where are you guys? I’m feeling scared… 

MikeI’m afraid of the dark. Can you say something?” 

Michael, this timeif we catch the killer, can you let me go? Let me leave.” 

MichaelHow long do I have to keep repaying you? Can you give me a figure? I’ll pay you back in the 

future.” 

Michael, say something, I’m begging you.” 

The recording was of me murmuring in the alley as I trembled in fear. I had begged Michael to say something so I would know that he was nearby and could feel a bit more at ease

Michael’s face had visibly paled, and his breathing was shaky. Rachel’s eyes were bloodshot as she stared at Michael with hatred

You’re such a bastard! You let Stephie go to Sunset Alley alone! You let her die, Michael!” 

I didn’tHis arms lost strength. He looked as if he was about to explain himself

I cried, then laughed. See Michael, isn’t it painful when you can’t explain

Michael, I want to leave, I’m so scared” 

In the recording, I told Michael I wanted to leave. However, just as I turned to leave, someone grabbed me and covered my mouth

Mm…. helphelp” 

Mikehelp me” 

I struggled and cried for help, but my voice slowly faded. The noise in the recording gradually 

disappeared. Everyone’s nerves were on the edge, including mine

Hearing this recording confirmed that I was murdered

Michael’s fingers kept trembling. His eyes gradually turned red

He turned back to look at Jack. His eyes were bloodshot

When did you find this recording? I’m fucking asking you, when did you find it?” 

Jack was terrified. His legs felt weak. Yyesterdayhe stammered

You damn well tell the truth!Michael rushed up to Jack and roared at him like a deranged beast

Jack fell onto the floor in fright. His face was pale as he spoke with a trembling voice
