Chapter 70 Steven
Rebecca paused for a moment and observed that after the woman's phone call with her best friend, things were getting increasingly strange. How could they not? Julia even sent her such bizarre images, symbols that resembled a fellowship or even a cult, which made her even more confused. Was this really the murder of a husband and wife who were the parents of her best friend's husband? Why did the longer she investigated the case, the deeper, darker, and even more terrifying it became?
Rebecca held her breath, as if she had to secretly find out what was really happening and who her best friend's husband was. "Is there something I don't know? Seeing your face like this really makes me want to laugh. These past few days, you haven't slept at all, always arriving at the office early in the morning and then leaving late at night. Haven't there been any cases in the past few weeks that required us to work overtime? We haven't even had to solve any particularly gruesome or difficult cases, have we? We're just trying to track down the mafia we've been targeting, and even that mafia has already disappeared, which means we've once again lost track of what we should have gotten."
Steven, seeing his friend seemingly unable to leave his seat, finally decided against going home. His original plan was to go home with Mr. Michelle, as stipulated. She was Mr. Michelle's niece, who happened to work alongside him in this elite police association.
"Is Mr. Michelle not coming back here?"
“actually he invited me to have a drink together at one of the bars, but when I left I saw you here alone so I decided to stay for a while and ask you because it seems like you are really busy by yourself. While all the elite members of the police force are even on vacation and enjoying their lives so very pleasant before there is another task waiting but what I see from you is really a very busy woman and even somehow a difficult figure to control. Is there really something so terrible that makes you like this? You can tell me if there is really a problem that is so very serious or maybe you even think if this would be one of the biggest reasons for anyone to tell, right?”
Rebacca was truly torn between telling Steven this. On the one hand, she needed someone to listen to her concerns, but on the other, she was also afraid that if she revealed something that was a secret, her best friend might get into serious trouble. In the end, she simply gave Steven one or two knots so that at least someone would understand, so he wouldn't have to worry about finding symbols that shouldn't be anywhere else.
"Do you know this symbol? You've worked abroad for quite some time, and I understand that you're probably well-versed in these kinds of issues. Furthermore, I know that in the country where you're on your mission, there are many heretical sects, aren't there? Satanists are truly terrifying, and I'm sure you probably know about this."
Steven, seeing this, frowned. Before answering, he looked at the woman sitting across from him with a very serious gaze. He knew the woman in front of him was extremely frustrated, and for some reason, or even from what source, she was suddenly trying to find out about a symbol that seemed quite strange, considering the police and their team hadn't even asked to discuss this symbol.
"Before I answer your question, may I ask where you got this? Because of course, I'm very curious about where you got this symbol, since our team doesn't get assignments like this, right?"
Rebecca paused for a moment before answering Steven's question. She was truly at a loss for what to answer, as she didn't have the courage to be honest about this matter.
"Actually I want to tell you that my friend ah experienced a very extraordinary problem, my friend received a completely inappropriate treatment and his parents were killed in a very terrible way. Now the person has come, and my friend really suspects that this person is the one who committed a crime. Actually he wanted to report this problem to the police but at first the police completely ignored his report and thought that my friend was not considered and did not provide strong enough evidence. Until finally he dared to secretly sneak in and find out for himself then in the end he managed to break in And got a book from the suspected person and in the photo there were these two symbols. And that's why my friend sent this symbol to me he thought if maybe this could be one of the evidence that could be a way for him to prove that the person was the killer of his parents. Of course I as a police officer who has a friend like that felt really so sorry so I decided to at least help my friend solve this problem. Now I don't know what this symbol means, or is it a coincidence, or just an ordinary picture, or just an ordinary symbol, or maybe even what is suspected "My friend, it's very likely that this symbol has a different meaning than the others, and what we don't know is certainly implied in a very terrifying way. Therefore, once again, I want to ask you sincerely about all this happening, and I hope that if you truly know, you can tell me, at least so I can help my friend."
"This isn't a sect of any kind, but this symbol is a key to unlocking a message from a criminal gang, which could be said to be from extraordinary circles. They could be from government, business, or even other elite circles. It could be said that this symbol is a symbol where these elites conspire for certain missions. For example, if they want to seize a territory with the potential to make them rich or something else, they will move and give each other instructions through this symbol.
