Volume 1: First Arrival Chapter 081 A Pair of Glasses
Once, and then again.
Nate confirmed it again and again very seriously and carefully. He didn't want him to be too eager for all this to happen and make up evidence that didn't exist at all, deceiving himself and others just to prove that he was right, but distorting the original truth of the matter.
Then--
Nate turned his head sharply to look at Kirk, barely suppressing his excitement.
"A pair of glasses, right?"
The voice trembled slightly, revealing the turbulence in Nate's heart, a little bit of excitement, a little bit of hesitation, a little bit of excitement, and a little bit of confusion.
Worry about gains and losses.
Kirk stood up straight, a smile rose on his face, and he nodded slightly in affirmation.
Just as Kirk was about to speak, Nate took a step forward and hugged Kirk tightly, mumbling incoherently in the depths of his throat, but was unable to organize his words effectively. He just kept jumping, jumping, and jumping on the spot.
He looked like a seven-year-old child who had discovered treasure, dancing and sharing his joy. Even though he couldn't utter a word, people could still feel it.
"Glasses!"
"A pair of glasses!"
Nate never knew that he would be so happy and out of control just because he found a pair of glasses. He was so happy that he almost exploded.
Kirk was slightly stunned, being caught completely off guard, but he couldn't help but smile.
——Just now, the detail Kirk captured in the changes in light and shadow, and the brightness and darkness of the color in the picture was a figure, a figure wearing glasses.
This also proves that there was a third person at the crime scene.
At the same time, the images presented by the surveillance video also convey a possibility:
Fisher, maybe what he said is true.
When the third person appeared, Fisher and MacDonald were in a state of complete oblivion. The possibility that Fisher committed the crime plummeted, and the possibility that the third person who had never appeared or been discovered from beginning to end was the real murderer soared.
The timeline presented by the surveillance video is indirect evidence.
Originally, this should have been the key evidence to convict Fisher, but now it has become the key to overturning the entire case.
An unexpected turn of events!
After the excitement, Nate's brain gradually calmed down, and he regained his sanity. He immediately realized the seriousness of the problem:
It is safe to assume that Fisher is innocent.
That means that the prosecutors have prosecuted the wrong person. If the prosecution is successful, they will send an innocent person to prison. If they withdraw the case at this time, it means that the prosecutors have slapped themselves in the face. They had previously emphasized with great fanfare that this was a case without suspense.
Damn it!
It is also because of this that the relationship between prosecutors and police is sometimes good and sometimes bad.
Originally, this should be the job of the police. They must do their job well and then hand the case over to the prosecutor, who will prosecute based on the police's investigation evidence. But now, it is Nate, the assistant prosecutor, who discovers the truth and completes the work on behalf of those bad police officers.
call!
Calm down, Nate quickly regained his composure and calmed his disordered breathing.
Although it is shameful that the prosecutors withdrew the case and said they had prosecuted the wrong suspect, from another perspective, it is worthy of praise that the prosecutors honestly and generously admitted their mistakes, insisted on avoiding wrongly accusing innocent people, and finally brought the real criminals to justice.
so!
The really critical thing now is that they need to re-examine the entire case and re-examine all potential suspects. Everyone who was at the TV station that night will become the subject of investigation. There may be fatal errors in the direction of the investigation. All investigations must start from scratch and everything must be reset to zero.
There are so many things going on, and it feels like there is a huge mountain in front of me.
If the case is withdrawn now, the public pressure and media attention will be unimaginable and may even affect the progress of the investigation. These factors must also be taken into consideration.
and.
"...We need to re-examine this surveillance video , then withdraw the lawsuit and pause the trial first."
"But those media are like locusts. They will never miss the opportunity."
"I need to contact the prosecutor."
"But who is it? The motive for the crime also needs to be re-investigated."
Everything was rushing towards him at once, his head was about to explode, and Nate, who was usually calm and composed, was unusually flustered.
"Hello, brother, there is a caring citizen on the scene ready to help. Did you notice?"
A voice came in front of him, Nate looked up, and then saw Kirk grabbing a handful of cherries and throwing them into his mouth one by one.
Subconsciously, Nate glanced at the fruit bowl. The bowl of cherries was almost empty.
But that’s not the point right now.
Nate quickly shook his head, regained his composure, and looked at Kirk again, "Concerned citizen? No, no, no, no, what do you think?"
"The idea of suspects and motives. Baji, baji."
Nate was slightly stunned. "Just based on that one silhouette?"
It’s not that Nate doesn’t believe Kirk, the point is that Kirk has not examined the entire case, including evidence, witnesses, etc., and knows nothing about it.
And now, Kirk can infer the truth of the case based solely on a silhouette in a surveillance video?
Kirk shrugged lightly. "Forget it if you don't need help. I believe that you can find the truth by cooperating with the police. I believe in the New York police."
After saying that, he nodded heavily, with a look of trust on his face.
Nate: ...
After taking a deep breath, Nate finally lowered his head. Anyway, one more opinion is good. "Okay, tell me what you think."
Kirk: Baji, baji, the cherries are so delicious.
Nate gritted his teeth secretly, this guy!
Finally, Nate closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "I'll take care of the hygiene for the next two weeks. Leave all the matters concerning the supermarket to me, too."
"Oh?" Kirk's voice rose slightly, revealing a pleasant surprise. "I was just thinking that you should give me all the remaining cherries tonight, but I didn't expect you to come up with a better suggestion, and even have an extra surprise. So let's do it."
Nate: ...
He opened his eyes and glared at Kirk.
Kirk decided to quit while he was ahead.
" I have a hypothesis that you can verify."
"First, you just said that MacDonald is a playboy."
"He was not idle inside Channel 11 either, flirting with women everywhere. It was because he had flirted with everyone inside the TV station and it was no longer new, so he turned his target to the bar, and finally met the elementary school teacher in this case."
"Secondly, judging from the surveillance video , this is clearly not the first time he has done something like this."
"In my opinion, it should not be for personal collection, otherwise, he could have gone home and filmed it secretly; he chose the live broadcast room specifically, to some extent, he just likes to be monitored and watched, this is his own habit."
"Third, judging from the case itself, it was a crime committed in the heat of the moment, with a sense of impulse."
"At present, Fisher has refused to plead guilty, and the motive provided by the police is not convincing. After all, there was indeed a spark between her and McDonald; moreover, she left Houston and came to New York just for adventure, and she did not necessarily want to establish a stable relationship."
"In other words, Fisher's motive for committing the crime was not solid."
"To sum up, what if it wasn't Fisher, but another love-struck woman on Channel 11?"
