Chapter 245 Organization
Sophia didn't let go of her. After all, this girl came here for no reason, and everything felt too abnormal.
First of all, why did she come over at this time?
And how did she know that Sophia was hypnotized?
Sophia looked at her seriously and claimed, "You better tell the truth because if you lie, I'll take you to the police station and use a lie detector on you."
"I'm telling the truth," Molly said in a panic, probably too scared, and she started crying, tears streaming down her face.
James thought for a moment and said, "Let her go."
Sophia didn't let go. "Where are my headphones?"
Molly choked, "I don't know."
James looked at her helplessly, took out a pair of headphones from his pocket, and waved them at Sophia, "They're with me. You gave them to me before you went in. Did you forget?"
Sophia let go of Molly and looked at James in disbelief. She rubbed her head, feeling incredibly heavy.
'What is going on? Did I give the headphones to James just now? Why didn't I have any memory of it?'
Molly left crying, and the room was left with just Sophia, James, and Jade.
Jade glanced at Sophia and remarked, "Maybe you slept too soundly and forgot what happened before."
Sophia rubbed her temples and asked, "How long did I sleep?"
Jade looked at the clock on the wall. "About an hour and a half."
"That long?" Sophia was a bit shocked. She had fallen asleep without realizing it. She was on high alert, fighting off sleep with all her might. The big question was, why was this happening? At that moment, she somewhat understood James.
Sophia glanced at Jade and quickly looked away.
Typically, hypnosis requires the cooperation of the person being hypnotized, but in this case, she didn't cooperate, yet Jade effortlessly induced sleep. It was all too peculiar. And it didn't seem like Jade used any technical means.
Sophia only remembered chatting with her after coming in, then drinking two glasses of water, and then...
Sophia's gaze shifted to the water jug on the side, her eyes becoming sharp. She walked to the desk, picked up the water jug, and said, "Ms. Marie, this water jug is nice. Where did you buy it? Can you tell me?"
Jade smiled and replied, "I bought it online. If you want, I can give you the link."
Sophia's pupils contracted, "What if I want your water jug?"
Jade smiled, "Then you can take it."
Sophia remained expressionless. "Thank you."
She picked up the water jug and the cup on the table and walked straight to the door. At the door, she turned back and said, "I'll get you a new one."
Jade's face still had a smile, even after Sophia left.
James explained, "That's just how she is. Don't be mad."
Jade said calmly, "It's okay."
Sophia walked downstairs and called Alan, "Have you left?"
Alan replied, "Not yet, on the rooftop, coming down soon."
Sophia asked, "Did you find anything?"
Alan said, "Found a small alarm clock on the rooftop, no idea what it's for, and don't know who brought it up."
Sophia looked up, "Bring it down and let me see."
Soon, Alan came down, holding a small yellow duck alarm clock, not even half the size of a palm, but the alarm sound was quite piercing.
Alan looked at Sophia's hand, "Why are you holding a water jug and a cup? Are you solving a case while drinking water?"
Sophia handed the items to him. "Do me a favor, have the tech department check if there are any illegal substances in this water jug and cup."
Alan asked curiously, "Where did you get these?"
Sophia expressed dominantly, "Don't worry about it, just do me a favor, and you won't regret it."
At that moment, James came down, and Sophia said, "Give me my headphones."
James handed them to her. "Did you have amnesia just now?"
Sophia didn't answer. She put on the headphones and walked to a quieter place, squatting in the corner.
As soon as she put on the headphones, a strange voice came through.
"The lord hasn't arrived yet. You need to come at the agreed time."
Then Samuel's voice said, "I need his help."
A woman insisted, "Everyone needs help. You shouldn't break the rules."
Samuel said heavily, "Vivian is dead. You should know her. I hope the lord can help me and tell me why she died."
"Sorry, we don't know her. There are three hours left until that time. You can't come in, understand?" The woman replied.
...
Sophia listened to their conversation, feeling very shocked.
'What was going on? What lord? Who is that woman? And from their conversation, it seems like there was more than one person. Could it be that all these people were deeply affected?' She thought to herself.
What Sophia couldn't understand the most was why Samuel would go to such a place. He was a police officer and shouldn't be superstitious.
If he wanted to investigate why Vivian committed suicide, he should follow the clues from her life and investigate.
He was foolish enough to ask someone who called themselves the lord. This was too strange.
Sophia opened her phone and checked the tracker location, which showed that Samuel was in a cathedral.
She looked at her watch. It was already five o'clock in the evening. They said there were three hours left until that time. What did they mean?
Three hours later, it would be eight o'clock in the evening. Were they going to do something there?
These days, Samuel had been secretly investigating the case, claiming that he would solve it before them.
But instead of solving the case, he joined such an organization. Deep in the mire, unable to extricate himself.
After getting this information, Sophia stood up and took a deep breath. She walked towards James and said, "Samuel is in trouble. We need to save him."
James said calmly, "What happened?"
Sophia guessed, "He might have been tricked into some organization."
James thought for a moment, "So his recent strange behavior is related to this organization?"
Sophia remarked seriously, "It's not that simple. If my guess is correct, the previous cases might also be related to this organization. Including Vivian's suicide."
