Chapter 524 Melody and Cynthia

“Do you know the identity of the corpse then?” Toby asked coldly. That was the most important question

for the time being.

Tim adjusted his glasses. “Not sure. I’ve taken the corpse’s fingerprint sample and went through the

database, but I found no match. You’ll have to look into this yourself.”

“It’s not going to be easy.” Sonia bit her lip. When she took a look at the corpse’s face earlier, it was

nothing but a mangled mess. Now that Tim couldn’t even confirm the corpse’s identity through the

fingerprint, it would definitely be an uphill battle for them to investigate the matter.

Just then, one officer rushed over with a stack of files in his hand. “Sir, we’ve compiled the visiting record

for Tina Gray!”

Everyone looked at the files the officer was holding at once.

“Give them to me.” Toby went over and took the files from the officer.

Sonia followed him closely and stood beside him. She huddled closer so she could take a look as well.

The file was only two pages long. The first page detailed Julia’s visits, and occasionally Titus’. There was

nothing there, so Toby flipped over to the second page. Most of the records were similar to the first

page’s, but when they got to the final few records, Toby and Sonia frowned.

“Melody? Cynthia?” Sonia was surprised. “Why did they come to visit her? And in the last couple of days

too?”

Toby narrowed his eyes. “Mr. Olsen, these are your prime suspects. It’s possible they helped Tina to

escape.”

“I see, Mr. Fuller. I’ll get someone to take them here.” Teddy took the files from him.

Toby grunted and looked at the officer who brought the files over. “Do you have the surveillance footage

of these two visiting Tina?”

“Yes.” The officer nodded.

Tim said, “Let’s watch it in my office. There’s a PC and projector there.”

Everyone agreed, and they went to Tim’s office. The officer inserted the USB drive into the PC and

projected it onto the big screen.

Toby sat down on the couch and patted the spot beside him. “Sit right here. It’s a great spot.”

Sonia rolled her eyes. We’re not watching a movie right now. You don’t have to pick a good spot. In the

end, she still went and sat beside him.

Toby smiled, happy that she did what he asked her to, and everyone around him could feel that he was

in a great mood.

The video started playing. The first one was Melody and Cynthia’s first visit. Sonia noticed that they went

into Tina’s ward and came out after half an hour, then they left. Nothing else happened during that period

of time.

Toby frowned. “Why do you only have surveillance footage outside of the room? Don’t you have a CCTV

camera inside?”

Teddy sighed. “Let me explain. She might be a criminal, but she’s still entitled to privacy. We can only

record everything outside her room, but not the inside. That’s why we know nothing about what

happened inside.”

Toby pursed his lips and said nothing more.

The second video started playing moments later. It was Melody and Cynthia’s last time visiting Tina. This

time, Sonia noticed something wrong. Melody went into the room, but she didn’t look too happy. Cynthia

was looking weird as well. She was wearing a cap and a mask, and she wouldn’t even look up for a

second. More importantly, she looked fearful.

At that point, Sonia sat up straighter and started looking serious. Toby did the same as well. He stared at

the video and thought about something.

Melody and Cynthia didn’t stay in the room for too long this time. Less than ten minutes later, they left,

and they never came to visit Tina again.

“It’s obvious now.” Tim looked at the video and sneered. “During the first visit, Tina must have threatened

Melody and asked for her help. That’s why Melody looked so glum in the second video.”

“So Cynthia’s the one who became Tina’s stand-in?” Tom asked.

“No,” Toby answered.

“She’s not?” Tom was surprised.

Sonia nodded. “I don’t think so either. Cynthia is an aristocrat after all, so Tina would never ask her to do

that. Which means that person in the second video was not the real Cynthia. They just used her identity

as a cover. Notice the cap and mask?”

“Yes. Tina, or probably Melody, must have promised that person something; something big enough to

buy her life. So the person who came back out with Melody must have been Tina, while the stand-in

stayed behind,” Toby tapped his knees and explained coldly.

Teddy punched the wall angrily, looking solemn. “What do they think lives are? Toys?”

Tim said, “Now you can tell your men to take Melody and Cynthia over. And hunt Tina down no matter

what.”

Toby nodded. “She should still be in Seafield, so you must locate her ASAP.”

“You’re right. I’ll tell my boss now.” Teddy took his phone out.

Toby grunted. “It’s late, so we’ll be leaving now.”

The next part was the police’s job, so they didn’t have to stay around.

“Okay. I’ll call you once I have any news.” Teddy nodded.

Toby stood up and extended his hand to Sonia. “Let’s go home now.”

Sonia looked at his hand, but she didn’t hold it. Instead, she stood up. “Correction. You are taking me

home. Just have to make that clear.” Go home? Do you have any idea how misleading that is? If the

others didn’t know better, they would think we were going home together.

Since Sonia wouldn’t hold his hand, Toby smiled drily and put his hand down.

After saying goodbye to Tim, they walked to the elevator, and it didn’t take long for them to come back

down to the lobby.

The Grays were there as well. Titus was sitting on a bench, his head hanging low. There was an air of

despair and sadness around him, while Julia was sitting beside him with her head buried in her hands as

she sobbed quietly. Even Rina was gripping her phone tightly, and her eyes were red, as if she was

holding her sorrow in.

Sonia arched her eyebrow. “Did Titus’ condition get worse?”

“How are you sure about that? They might be sad because ‘Tina’s dead.’” Toby looked at her.

Sonia pointed her chin at Rina. “Because she won’t look so sad if it’s because of Tina. The only reason

for that would be Titus’ condition.”

“You have a point.” Toby nodded.

The Grays looked up when they heard the sound of footsteps coming closer, and they were surprised to

see Sonia with Toby and Tom. They thought Sonia was the only person who came, but they never

thought Toby was around as well. However, it was obvious in hindsight. After all, Sonia was all Toby

cared about, so he would follow her wherever she went.
