Chapter 682: 224: The truthes to light, the cold handcuffs_2


    What other secrets does this young girl hide from the world?


    Her knowledge and perspective not only surpass her peers, but also many older people.


    At first, Amelia despised and distrusted Vi Thompson.


    She always felt that Vi behyaved recklessly.


    But now, it seems that…


    It’s not like that.


    Vi is impressive, but not in the least arrogant.


    From beginning to end, she has been humble, which makes her irresistibly likable.


    Ling nods, “Yes, Captain also said the same thing.”


    Vi slightly frowns, pouring a few pills from the bottle, cing them in her palm, and carefully distinguishing them.<div>


    There is nothing wrong with the pills.


    A momentter, Vi puts the pills aside and asks, “Are there any other medicines?”


    “No,” Ling replies. “If Sylvia really drugged Maureen, she must have disposed of the drugs long ago, right?”


    The pills are small in volume.


    They can be flushed away directly in the toilet.


    Vi shakes her head slightly, “No, I must be missing something.”


    Definitely.


    Drugs that cause unconsciousness are not easy to buy and are sold under real-name systems. If Sylvia really wanted to hurt someone, she wouldn’t leave any evidence.


    Thus, Sylvia wouldn’t buy drugs that cause unconsciousness directly.


    At that moment, Vi suddenly thinks of something and says, “Antacid medicines contain aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide. If taken with vitamin C, they can cause adverse reactions, leading to unconsciousness!”


    Upon hearing this, Ling asks, “Really?”


    “Yes,” Vi nods slightly, “This ismon medical knowledge. People studying medicine should know.”


    Ling continues, “In that case, it’s very likely that Sylvia made Maureen take these drugs!”


    Halfway through her sentence, Ling seems to remember something, “But the medicine must have a taste, right? How did Sylvia make sure Maureen would obediently eat it?”


    Vi replies, “That’s easy. Just put it in fruit juice, or if Maureen was already not feeling well and taking medicine, Sylvia could just switch the pills.”


    Ling nods, feeling that Vi’s reasoning is sound.


    “By the way, Miss Thompson, we also found a camera in Maureen’s living room. But, ording to Maureen, it’s been broken for a while and can’t be used. We still took the storage card out, though.”


    “Can I take a look?” Vi asks.


    “Of course.”<div>


    Vi is an expert in this field, after all. What if she can fix it?


    …


    Edward Thompson is temporarily imprisoned in a detention center.


    He stays in arge open room with 15 other people.<div>


    The environment in the detention center is not good.


    The roommates are diverse,prising of all sorts of strange folks.


    Upon learning that Edward Thompson was a famous star,


    Fourteen roommates joined hands to tease and bully him.


    They intentionally wet his nkets and hide his toiletries.


    Edward Thompson not only has to face his roommates’ gaunts and exclusion, but also has to get up at 6:30 a.m. every day, face the wall in self-reflection, exercise, study legal knowledge and newspapers, and in the afternoon, operate a sewing machine to do handicrafts.


    When has Edward Thompson ever suffered like this?


    In just three days, Edward Thompson looks like apletely different person, unshaven and depressed.


    He doesn’t understand.


    Not long ago, he was still a high-profile star; how did he be like this now?


    “Edward Thompson,e here.”


    At that moment, a voice echoed through the air.


    “Yes, sir!”<div>


    Edward Thompson reflexively stands up.


    That is the rule of the detention center.


    When he gets out, he will be aw-abiding citizen and never return.


    He doesn’t want to live like this anymore.


    “Edward Thompson,e with me, someone wants to see you.”


    Someone wants to see him?


    Who is it?


    Is it his family?


    It must be Mrs. Thompson with thewyer again!


    Thinking of that, Edward Thompson gets excited and perks up, following the police officer out.


    Separated by an iron fence, Edward Thompson sees the visitor.


    It’s Sylvia.


    Seeing Sylvia, Edward Thompson immediately feels a surge of anger.<div>


    He turns to leave.


    Sylvia, with red-rimmed eyes, calls out, “Big bro!”


    She looks pitiful and wronged.


    If it had been before, Edward Thompson would have felt heartache.


    Because Sylvia was his most beloved sister.


    But now…


    No more!


    Mrs. Thompson was right; he was blind. He used to think Sylvia was a kind and sensible girl, but now that he sees her without the filter, he realizes that the most disgusting and deceitful person in the Thompson n is Sylvia!
