Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1895

The next day.

Just as Owen was preparing to bring Daniel to George to atone for his sins today, the prison guard suddenly ran over to him, panting. "Sir Hopper! Bad news! Something happened to Daniel!!!"

Owen's face froze and he quickly said to the prison guard, "Let's go and take a look."

The prison guard followed him and reported truthfully, "Although I have made the emergency call, I am afraid it is too late."

Owen's face darkened and he didn't say anything. He strode towards the single-cell where Daniel was being held.

At this moment, there was not a single person outside Daniel's cell.

First of all, the doctor and nurse responsible for treating him left after his fever was relieved.

Secondly, when the prison guard in charge of patrolling noticed that something had happened to him, he immediately ran over to report to Owen.

Therefore, things had not been spread.

Owen walked in to take a look and saw Daniel leaning against the wall with his legs crossed. His head was drooping and no one could see his expression clearly, and his arms were in front of his chest...

At first glance, it looked like he was sleeping. Owen even felt that as long as he shouted, "Daniell", the other person would immediately jump up like a spring and wake up.

"Sir Hopper, I'm afraid he's already..." While Owen was looking at Daniel, the prison guard said, "He's already dead."

Upon hearing this, Owen stepped forward and stuck out a finger under Daniel's nose. He was not gasping for air and he was already dead!

Owen then pressed his hand on his chest, only to find that the person in front of him was dead.

How did he die?

Owen did not feel any grief for someone like Daniel. He only wanted to examine his corpse.

The next second, he crouched down on the ground and reached out to lift Daniel's lowered head.

There were more than ten finger marks left by Brittany on Daniel's face. There was nothing special about that. Owen continued to look down...

Then, his gaze froze.

Daniel's throat was constantly bleeding, but because his head was lowered and Owen was looking down at him, he didn't notice this.

Besides, Daniel was wearing black clothes. Judging from the color, it was indeed similar to dried-up blood, but it was not impossible to tell. Owen could tell.

He retracted his hand and turned to the prison guard beside him and said, "Go to call the forensic doctor in the police station."

"Yes!" The prison guard immediately left.

A moment later, a female forensic doctor quickly appeared behind the prison guard.

Owen pointed at Daniel with her eyes, and the female forensic doctor immediately came forward and checked him quickly.

The result came out soon.

Daniel's fatal wound had originated from his throat. Other than the scratches left behind by Brittany, there were no other injuries.

The female forensic doctor found a thin and long needle in Daniel's throat.

When she found it, it was nailed into Daniel's throat, leaving only a slight bulge. Otherwise, the female forensic doctor really couldn't touch it.

Owen looked at the murder weapon handed over by the female forensic doctor and pondered.

"Ah! I know!" The prison guard next to him suddenly thought of something and said, "The day before yesterday when Daniel had a high fever, he knocked out the IV tube and the doctor had no choice but to give him an injection. Was this needle left here by the doctor accidentally?"

Hearing that, Owen said in a low voice, "It's also possible that Daniel secretly hid it while the doctor and the nurse were not paying attention."

Yes, it was just a needle. Every time the medical staff used it, they would throw it in the trash can. Who would care where it went?

At this time, the female forensic doctor said, "Sir Hopper, such a large area of wound is formed after the prisoner's throat was pierced by the needle many times. His whole throat is rotten. He must have suffered a lot at that time. But judging from the furnishings around him, he didn't seem to lose control.”

Yes, the surrounding bedding, cups, shoes, and other things were in a neat and tidy position. If a normal person was in pain, they would more or less do something to divert their attention, such as pulling the blanket, biting the blanket, smashing the cups, kicking the shoes, and so on. However, Daniel did not dothat at all.

The prison guard said that Daniel was very calm last night.

"By the way, he still has this on him." The female medical doctor took a toy car to Owen.

Owen looked at it and said, "I already knew about this. He brought it back from his mother. I didn't think it was dangerous, so I let him keep it.”

"Oh, I see." The female forensic doctor nodded and didn't say anything else.

The officer continued, "Your brother is a criminal. We were only responsible for monitoring him, not his good friends. It's just that your brother didn't want you and your mother to know about this, so he asked us to act with him. Sorry, Ned. I cheated you on this matter."

At this point, Ned focused all his attention on the phrase "Your brother is a criminal". He asked eagerly, "No way? My brother is a good man. He won't break the law! Police officer, did you make a mistake? My brother, he... How can he be a criminal?"

Upon hearing that the young man was about to cry, the officer sighed in his heart and said, "Daniel had committed several crimes in Northville, but you and your mother didn't know about it. He had bribed government officials, cut corners in construction, poisoned his father- in- law, escaped from prison, and so on... In short, once he committed crimes, he must be severely punished by the law."

"How could this be..." Ned said in a choked voice, "No wonder my brother looked so thin and behaved abnormally. I asked him what happened, but he had been hesitating and refused to tell me..."

The officer said, "The reason Daniel went back this time was just to see you and your mother so that he can continue spending the rest of his life in prison."

Hearing this, Ned couldn't help but whimper. "What's wrong with you, Ned?" There was an asking voice beside him.

After Ned said "I'm going to the bathroom", he quickly pulled out the chair and ran out.

A moment later, a heavy sound of closing the door rang.

The officer guessed that Ned had already hidden in the bathroom and asked, "Is it convenient for you to talk now?"

Ned panted as he sobbed. "Yes... Please, please continue! Has something... happened to my brother?"

This young man... was surprisingly sharp.

The officer thought to himself and could not help asking, "How did you know that something had happened to your brother?"

Ned was in a panic, but his logic became clear, "Because you just told me that my brother came back to the countryside to see my mother and me, which means that he was not going to tell us what he has done."

"Since you were willing to pretend to be a good friend of my brother, it proves that you did not intend to expose him. But you called me today and told me my brother is a criminal."

"You went against my brother's original intention. So please tell me what happened to my brother!"

"You're right," the officer admitted, "Your brother... committed suicide."

"Snap-" a sound was heard.

From Ned's side came the sound of his phone falling. Then, the officer heard a heartbreaking wail, which made him panic.

The officer waited for a while, only to find that although the phone was still connected, no one talked, because the teenager began to cry sadly after mourning...
