Chapter 833 It's Getting Complicated

The body was retrieved from a river.

The story was simple.

There was a large river by the town. Many people in town made a living by fishing in this river.

They usually cast a net in the morning and then pulled it up at dusk.

But today, something held the fishers up, so they retrieved the net a bit later than usual.

Because of this, the fish had the time to escape after they ate the bait. Thus, they all thought they

wouldn't gain much today.

But to their surprise, they found the net rather heavy when they tried to pull it up.

Everybody radiated with joy, thinking that the haul would be big.

However, they soon found something weird.

When the net was retrieved, they saw no fish but a human's arm floating on the surface of the water.

They were all horror-stricken at this. A moment later, someone called the police. At the same time, the

group worked together and hoisted the net to the shore.

The police soon arrived.

After the investigation, they declared that the dead person was a girl about 18. She was drowned to

death. Nobody in town knew her, so she probably was not a local.

Just as the police prepared to take the body back and do further research, Queeny caught sight of the

body.

She shuddered fiercely.

The next moment, her face turned chalk-white.

Perhaps because the police noticed her unusually pale face, one of them came over and asked, "Miss,

do you know this girl?"

Queeny just sat in her chair, not responding to the question.

Her stupefied appearance confirmed their doubt that she might have something to do with this.

More policemen closed in on her, staring warily at her.

"Are you okay?"

It was not until this moment that Queeny came out of her trance.

She numbly raised her head and looked at these policemen. Next, she opened her mouth and said,

"Yes, I know her."

The police were shocked.

...

Of course, Queeny knew the dead girl.

She was the maid who was driven out of the castle a couple of days ago because everyone thought

she had stolen the meat, while she claimed that she just picked it up from the floor in the garden.

Queeny never thought that she would become a dead body when she met her only three days later.

What on earth happened?

Now Queeny had admitted she knew her, she certainly needed to go with the police for further

investigation.

She reckoned the story of the maid was no secret, so she told the police everything she knew.

After that, she still couldn't recover from the shock.

She couldn't believe that the lovely girl who was walking around in the castle days ago was dead now.

According to the autopsy report, she had been dead for two days.

However, judging by her body, she stayed in the river for no more than an hour.

In other words, someone drowned her and waited for two days before throwing her into the river.

Somehow, a chill spiraled up Queeny's spine.

She suddenly thought of the boxes of chicken meat.

The maid said she merely saw them lying in the garden and picked them up. However, after some

investigation, all the evidence said that she lied.

Therefore, the others all believed she was the thief, and she only denied it for fear of being punished.

Queeny found it a bit odd at that time, but she didn't come forward to defend the maid.

"Could there be something we overlooked?"

At this thought, Queeny frowned in concentration.

As she just came back here today, and she had alibis for her previous whereabouts, the police did not

see her as a suspect.

They told her that she could go after they recorded her statement.

But seeing that she was in a wheelchair alone and didn't drive here, the captain told one of the

policemen to give her a ride.

Queeny remained silent on the way back.

Many voices were arguing in her head. What happened recently was played in her mind over and over

again.

At first, someone attempted to assassinate her but failed. Then, she got abducted by another group of

gangsters.

It seemed that those people wanted to catch her alive, so they didn't hurt her.

Shortly after, Felix rescued her and brought her back to his castle.

During her recovery, her life was quite peaceful, except that Bella occasionally messed with her.

Then, one day, Bella accused Gina the cook of swapping the food. She went over to sort it out. Later,

she found that Gina didn't do it, but a young maid did it.

Donald then asked the maid to leave. Right after that, Bella got poisoned.

The cereal that was prepared for her turned out to be poisonous with the deadly white arsenic inside.

Unexpectedly, Bella snatched the cereal from her and ate it, which almost killed her.

After that, she and Felix hatched a plan. Felix threw her out of the castle, so she came back to this NôvelDrama.Org © content.

town and saw the maid's body.

Those incidents appeared to be unrelated. But at this moment, Queeny saw them as a series of clues

that were linked together.

But something was not right.

What on earth could it be?

As Queeny was contemplating with a frown on her face, the young policeman in the driver's seat

remarked, "I heard that the dead girl was a maid in your residence. Do you know about her life and who

she usually associated with?"

Queeny was pulled out of her reverie.

She didn't reply immediately.

Actually, she had told the police about this in the police station.

She didn't know why the police officer asked her again. However, she didn't shy away from answering.

Candidly, she said, "No, I don't know much about her life. She didn't work in the building I lived, so we

seldom crossed paths. I don't know anything about her except her name."

The policeman smiled.

He didn't appear surprised, nor did he pursue the subject.

Next, he veered the conversation in a different direction.

"I saw your file just now. You have a criminal record?"

Queeny's eyes dimmed a little.

She nodded lightly.

The young policeman smiled, then scratched his head as if he was feeling self-conscious.

"With all due respect, can I ask you something? I'm really curious. You seem to be a sweet girl, what

crime could you have done? The file didn't say the specific..."

"Murder."

Queeny gave him the answer before he finished the question.

"Huh?"

The policeman was astonished. His jaw dropped in wonder.

Queeny had an idea, which piqued her interest. Then, she arched one eyebrow and looked at him with

a smirk.

"You're surprised? I don't look like a murderer?"

The young policeman shook his head and said seriously, "No, you don't."

"Heh!"

Queeny laughed coldly and turned to look outside the window, not speaking again.

The ride continued in silence.

From the rearview mirror, Queeny saw a car flashing its headlights from behind.

She knew the people in that car were those Felix sent here to protect her.

"It... seems to be getting more and more complicated," she mused.

Soon, the car arrived at the old house.

The officer got off first. He took the wheelchair from the trunk and helped Queeny get off the car.
