Chapter 919 919: The Clues Was Broken



Jay asked the child's parents again. The parents shook their heads and said they did not know about it.

The clue was broken.

To establish, Lilith did wait for him in Silver Bridge, but she was also missing.

This was probably what things looked like. Jay frowned painfully.

"Lilith goes with that man. It means there are only two cases; one is that she knows that man and the other is that man claims to be your colleague. Jay, have you ever asked your colleagues, or have you been to see Lilith or any other colleagues know about it?"

"I have asked all of my colleagues who know Lilith. They haven't gone to Silver Bridge and haven't seen Lilith. And only I know this matter." Jay said with a sad face," I am most afraid of the second situation. Someone impersonated me and took away Lilith."

"But what is the purpose of that man? How could Lilith follow him?" Cassie was puzzled.

Jay sighed, "What is the purpose of the man? So far, I do not know. I'm most afraid of the other side's ulterior motives. If the second case occurs, the person will likely pick her up because I am busy."

Irish fell into deep contemplation, her heart pounding uneasily against her chest, saying after a long time, "I think the second kind of possibility is substantial. If the man is your colleague, then it is impossible to take Lilith away without informing you, and more importantly, how can your colleague know that Lilith was in Silver Bridge? Then there is only the second possibility. She was taken away and must be the person who pretended to be Jay's colleague; otherwise, Lilith would not follow him, and the child also said Lilith was not forced to be taken away."

"I do not understand. Didn't Lilith call Jay? The other side really took her using his name, and then she should have made a phone call to ask." Cassie tightened her eyebrows.

The question that Cassie raised was really crucial, rendering them all speechless.

But Jay could answer.

He gently shook his head and said, "Lilith knows me. If she knows I am in the police station, then she will certainly not call me. She said she was afraid a phone call would bring me danger. I guessed that the person who took Lilith away must have said that I was at the police station, and it was an urgent mission, so I had to ask colleagues to pick her up. Lilith certainly dared not easily call, plus she felt that only I knew her location, so that must be the person I sent. She has always been a girl with a gentle temperament, who has not experienced so many great waves and ugliness and may not have expected it to happen."

William pressed the cigarette butt out in the ashtray for a long time, but his fingers were still shaking. "So, the other side took Lilith away. Probably it is kidnapping?"

Kelly's whole body shook. At this time, she had lost her usual calm and indifference and became an ordinary mother. She had already been gaunt.

But Joseph rejected the hypothesis, saying, "If it's just a kidnapping, it's been how many hours had gone, and there should be a call for a ransom."

Jay agreed with Joseph, nodding, "Lilith should not have been kidnapped."

"So what's the point?" Lenard finally could not help but say the voice was anxious.

Joseph looked at him and did not speak, but Jay could not help but improve the tone of voice, "Lenard, you were also a policeman. What Lilith would encounter make you lose your judgment?"

In other words, people at present were stunned, but Lenard was suddenly horrified.

"What do you mean, Jay? You make it clear to me! Lilith can meet what kind of situation?" Kelly finally couldn't help it, getting hysterical.

Jay said nothing, and Lenard's expression was also very nervous.

When Joseph realized the tension between them, he quickly patted Jay on the shoulder, "They have the right to know everything. You should be honest."

"Jay, say it!" William was even more uneasy.

Jay looked serious. After a long time, he said, "If it's not kidnapping, the worst case is that the other side who took her away is a drug dealer."

"What do you mean?" Kelly collapsed suddenly.

"That is to say, they were drug dealers who have taken Lilith away, and they may have come to retaliate against me," Jay said with difficulty.

"It's also possible to get back at me. After all, I've taken over preventing drugs," Lenard added.

But Kelly's eyes only stared at Jay. Lenard's words did not play many roles. She staggered forward, pulled Jay, and roared madly, "Jay! Do you want to kill Lilith? She wouldn't be unlucky today if she didn't know you! How could it not have been you who had been taken away? What has Lilith done? I wish I could kill you now!"

Jay just let her vent, and William rushed forward to persuade Kelly to calm down.

"Get out of here! I never want to see you again!" Kelly hissed.

Jay got up and told Kelly, "This is only the worst scenario, but in any case, if Lilith's disappearance is related to me, I will be responsible for it."

"Leave my home! That's your biggest responsibility!"

"Aunt, now the most important thing is the police intervention. Please believe me."

"Leave!"

The scene was a mess.

When Jay went out with pain, Lenard chased out and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Not really." Jay was straightforward, "But we have to prepare for the worst. If a drug dealer took Lilith away, he would call for a ransom." 

"You should know that if they were drug dealers, they wouldn't want money," Lenard said word by word.

"I know." Jay took a deep breath, looking firmly. "Even if they want my life, as long as Lilith is at peace, I do not hesitate to give it to them."

Lenard's eyes shook. After a long time, he asked, "You will find her, right?"

Jay's eyes were fixed, "Yes."

Things always come one by one, leaving no room for relaxing.

Lilith disappeared, while Irish faced pressure from the Runestone shareholders. On Thursday, it was the day she went to the Runestone Group to work. Still, she was notified by the personnel department that she had been removed from her post as the Runestone psychological counselor. The person who had personally approved the dismissal was Joseph!
