Chapter 893 (1/2)
Jessica's face is changing, her eyes are drifting, her expression is sometimes anxious and sometimes afraid, and there are more subtle emotions mixed in.
Luke didn't push her, just waited quietly.
Jessica was silent for more than ten seconds before finally saying, ”no, I don't know anything.”
Luke laughed. ”Miss Jones, I appreciate your protection to your clients and our detectives, but we will keep looking into this case. If you really want us to avoid danger, let us know what you know about him. Molly may not be the first victim, and you don't want the next one! ”
Jessica was silent again for a long time, and finally shook her head: ”I don't know anything. I can't help you.”
The smile on Luke's face didn't change, just nodded, ”OK, that's it for the time being.”
He looked at Christina and said, ”where are Richard and them?”
Christina: they're going through the discharge formalities
Luke: you're at work, so don't delay. Just leave it to us. It's our job. ”
Christina looked at his calm look and thought of what her good friend, Harry, said. After a moment's hesitation, she chose to believe Luke.
In fact, she can't believe it.
Even the attending doctor can't help Molly to leave the hospital and go home. After all, Molly is not a critical patient.
In this case, the hospital has no right or obligation to interfere with the discharge of the other party.
She just didn't want to see Molly leave like this, with full of wounds.
Christina's heart turned and she said, ”OK, thank you.”
Seeing the nurse leave, Luke and Selena stood at the door of the ward, and they ate a chocolate lollipop.
Jessica looked at them, a little confused: ”you What is this? ”
Luke: wait for Richard to come back
Looking at Jessica's expression, he said casually, ”don't worry, Miss Jones, I'm not here to persuade them. You're right. They're staying in New York, and it doesn't help to increase the chances of another encounter. ”
Jessica was suspicious.
She has not dealt with the police once or twice. The police use victims to catch suspects, which is definitely one of the most commonly used means.
But looking at Luke, she didn't really want to accept the speculation.
Because of her temper and career, she never had a good relationship with the police, but her sense of Luke and Selena was not bad.
Two such young policemen are willing to pursue a case that seems to be of little credit. They can only be regarded as having good professional ethics.
Dedicated police are more worthy of respect than black police.
After waiting more than ten minutes, Richard came back after finishing the discharge procedure.
Seeing Luke in front of the door, he was confused, but he said hello to him.
Luke looked at his uncomfortable expression and said, ”Richard, you have given us enough help. Now take Molly home. She needs a good rest.”
Richard came forward and shook his hand. ”I'm sorry, thank you.”
I'm sorry, because before he was 100% supportive of Luke, but now he's on the run.
And this thank you is his thanks for everything Luke has done.
Luke patted him on the shoulder. ”Let's go. We'll get you out of town.”
