Chapter 54 Fifty-Four
Done with Natasha’s case, it is time to dig into the Professor’s background to find out if what Catherine said about him was true.
Having a private room in the hospital where the only thing he does there is to have sex with the workers is against the law and the consequences are to be relieved of his duty.
But a rape?
That is the most blasphemous thing to do and it won't only cost him his job, but also, he will spend half of his life in prison.
While gathering the murder file to be sent over to the court for judgment, the thunderbolt metal I got from the chief’s office fell.
Suddenly, I remember the serial killer case.
Not that I have totally forgotten about it, but I've forgotten that all the people involved in the case have been locked up in prison.
Had it been I not seen the metal and remembered the case, then I would have been taken by surprise by those people later on.
I put the metal back inside the drawer, locked it, threw the keys under the carpet below my desk, and left the office.
My next stop was the hospital, to investigate the professor’s office.
Since it wasn't a case that involved a murder or a suicide, I only went there with two officers who would only stand by the door while I carried out my investigation.
First, we made a stop at the court where I handed over the file to the judge,
However, he brought up a topic, wasting my time in court.
“What about our discussion, Detective Lizzy?”
He asked, smiling at me.
I sighed deeply, got up from the chair, and shrugged my shoulders.
“Still on my stand, your lordship.”
Without waiting for him to say another thing, I left.
Raymond and I graduated from the same high school, and also went to the same university.
But while he studied in the department of Law, I studied to be a detective.
Raymond cared for me so much and treated me like a little sister, but I didn't know he was doing all that because he was in love with me.
He never confessed his feelings to me, and when he decided to, it was already late.
By that time, Alex and I were already together, planning for our wedding.
Raymond was heartbroken, but he still congratulated me.
Years have already passed by, but he hasn't given up.
He still wants to marry me even though he is still single and I have a daughter from my previous marriage.
Unfortunately, I am not ready for any relationship, and I don't think I will ever do that again.
Maybe if he had confessed his feelings in time, I would have chosen him, and he would have supported my career, and he wouldn't have stopped me from working like Alex tried to do.
Well, that was in the past, I can not allow myself to be consumed by the thoughts of the past.
A few minutes later, we arrived at the hospital, but the professor wasn't in his office.
The nurse who came out of his office said; he was in the operating room as the chief surgeon.
Anyway, since I went there for investigation, I went inside the office to do my work.
And just as Catherine had mentioned earlier, there were two doors inside the office.
One was on the left, and the other was on the right.
I positioned the officers in front of the office while I went ahead to check the doors.
The one on the left was the bathroom with nothing interesting in it,
But the door on the right was a room.
It has a large bed, consuming half and a quarter of the room, with little space left to walk on.
And on the bed were four pieces of G-string pants in different colors, two lingerie in different colors, and a piece of black ribbon.
The ribbon looked familiar and when I picked it up, it was the same as the one I've seen before.
My lips curved into a smirk as I held it up, staring at it disgustingly.
Amelia is indeed a green snake.
She looked so innocent yet, she is involved in illegal things.
Why wouldn't they just have their sex outside the hospital?
Must it be during their work hours?
Ahhh!
I dropped the ribbon, walked around the room, but there was nowhere else to look except under the bed since there wasn't any more furniture in the room.
I went on all fours, peeked under the bed, and found a bunch of bedsheets stuck in there.
I pulled them out one after the other, but a few of them got stuck inside.
The bedsheets I was able to pull out were stained with blood,
Some have just droplets of blood on it, and others were soaked in blood on a side, of both sides.
What on earth brought the blood on the bedsheets?
I stood straight, holding one of the bedsheets soaked in blood.
And as soon as I threw it on the bed, the door opened and the chief came in.
He was so furious, but when he saw the bedsheet I had just put down, his countenance dimmed.
He swallowed hard, shut the door behind him, and strolled towards me.
“Detective Lizzy?”
I picked up the bed sheet, pointing at the blood stain.
“Where did this come from?”
He glanced at it, chuckled, and sighed deeply.
“Well, I know you already know what it means,”
He said, showing no sign of apprehension.
“Oh, so it is true.”
I said, pretending to be shocked.
“Why, yes, Lizzy. A man ought to enjoy himself you know.”
He chuckled in his dreadful voice.
“So tell me, how did blood end up on these bedsheets?”
He glanced at them and scoffed.
“It came from those stupid nurses who think they are more intelligent than me. Can you imagine this? They will wear skimpy scrubs into my office to seduce me, and when I try touching them, they back out.”
