The System Exploded And I Became The System

The first rule in Group A of the Ghost Story Rules is that it is wrong to be the murderer.

Regarding this conclusion, Maude was already seventy-eight percent sure.

So who could be the real murderer?

Maude believed that the rules of ghost stories led him into this corpse case, and this case must have a way to solve the problem!

Naturally, the most critical information must be on the murderer of this case!

Perhaps after finding the murderer, all the mysteries will become clearer.

Recalling so many suspects, Mod suddenly looked at his colleague Corey in front of him.

"Captain, what's wrong?" Corey showed an uncomfortable expression under this gaze.

"July 17th, what did you do that day?" Maude remembered that among the suspects, Corey, who was a regular, was also a suspect!

The reason for suspicion is that on July 17, Corey took a whole day off.

These are all recorded in the data compiled by the predecessor.

According to the medical examiner's report, the death date of the deceased was basically determined to be around mid-July!

"I..." Corey's expression froze when he heard Mod's questioning, and his eyes dodged a little: "Didn't I say that I was feeling a little unwell that day? Captain, did you ask for leave?"

"You're lying!" Maud said in a serious tone.

After coming to this world, he paid great attention to every detail.

How could Corey's obviously lying expression be hidden from him.

"Captain, are you doubting me?!" Cory's face was filled with anger as his lie was exposed so ruthlessly.

When he pointed his finger at Maude, he said: "We have been partners for so many years, captain, don't you see my style? You actually regard me as the murderer of the corpse case, which really disappoints me!"

"Tell me, what were you doing that day?!" Maude didn't let any of this guy's words influence her.

With an aggravated tone, he even slapped the pistol on his waist on the table!

The voice that was even angrier than Corey's made Corey's own steaming anger instantly die down.

"You should know how serious this case is. There are only two of us. The murderer can dismember a person's body and bury it, and we can't find the upper body of the body until now. Such a large amount of work means that there may be more than one person involved. people!"

"Now it's not just the residents of the town who are in danger, we are also in danger!"

Maude's tone slowed down a lot: "I know you can't be the murderer, but I need your information that day. We need to rely on the information to find the gap and direction!"

"So, tell me why you took leave that day and what was the real reason for taking leave."

Rather than pressuring with extreme emotions, Maud adopted a combination of shock and gentleness.

The purpose is to get words out of the other party's mouth.

"I..." After hearing Maud's words, Corey lowered his head and fell into silence and entanglement.

"I was really just asking for leave... As for Berson's death, it had nothing to do with me at all, that's for sure!"

Finally, Corey gave an answer that Maude didn't expect.

Even though he pressed like this, Corey still didn't confess what happened that day!

"Why?" Maude looked at Corey and asked herself in her mind.

Among the documents he had read before, several clearly proved that this guy was away from home for most of the day!

If it weren't for the fact that Corey rarely met Berson, let alone had any grudges, I'm afraid he would have been directly identified as a suspect!

One thing is for sure, Corey definitely knows some important information!

But the other party remained tight-lipped.

The only factor Maud could think of.

It means that after Corey tells what happened that day, he or one of his relatives or even someone he cares about will suffer!

He was so worried that he didn't speak.

What is he worried about? !

"You don't trust me?" Maud stared at the other person closely and asked unwillingly.

Hearing this, Corey looked into Fang's eyes, took a deep breath and said vaguely: "No, I believe you too much."

After saying that, the man turned and walked out of the office: "Captain, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable today. Please take a day off."

Maude watched the other party leave, pinching her brows a little tiredly.

What is clear is that Corey must know something!

But how to pry open the other party's mouth is a problem.

After touching her stomach, which had not eaten anything since yesterday, Maud looked at the sandwich on the table in front of her.

When he reached out, he picked up the hot dog next to him.

While eating, Maude looked at Corey's desk.

Without any hesitation, I sat in his seat and started looking for information that might be useful.

While rummaging through stacks of documents, Maude could tell from Corey's method of organizing the documents and analyzing the case that he was meticulous about his work.

Even if it was just a small chicken theft case, he had drawn many clues by hand and compiled the information meticulously. Although it ended up being an unsolved case, it was enough to illustrate his work attitude.

Such a diligent police officer, if he really knew any information about the mutilation case, he would never hide anything from himself!

Even if the murderer threatens, it will be difficult to have an impact!

Could it be that his family is being threatened?

With this idea in mind, Maude continued to search for information.

While searching, I also accidentally found Corey's personal file.

Through the personal file, Maude learned that Corey's abilities were all mediocre.

But his ambition is very strong.

Best performance ever.

He was once held hostage by gangsters and even risked his own life to subdue the gangsters!

It is impossible for such a person to be threatened!

As for family...

The file information shows that Corey is just a person, without parents or relatives!

There is absolutely no weak spot that could be a threat.

While Maude was thinking about it, she suddenly noticed a letter in Corey's drawer.

No, not one letter, but seven or eight.

"Dear Ms. Bertha, from the first time I saw you, I was deeply fascinated by your beauty. You are like the most wonderful part of the countless scenery of mountains, forests and lakes outside the train window. I believe that even if you reach the end, Stand, I still can’t forget your beauty.”

"I think we can try to get acquainted? I wonder, Ms. Bertha, if you would like to have me as an admirer?"

…

Looking at the contents of the letter, Maud's eyes twitched slightly.

Is this a love letter from Corey?

Open the remaining envelopes.

Sure enough, these are all love letters he wrote to Bertha, but he didn't send them out.

"This kid has a secret crush on Bertha?" Maud said to herself.

He probably knew something about Bertha.

Of course, this is also through the information that I found before.

Bertha is a school-age woman in a small town. She is very good-looking, but she is an orphan and lives alone in a house on the edge of the town.

Could it be that Bertha's safety was in the hands of the murderer, so Corey refused to reveal a word of information to him?

While thinking about this in her mind, Maud was also a little full.

Looking at the hot dog that still had a section in my hand, I couldn't help but sigh at the abundance of food in this place.

Standing up from Corey's workstation, Moder probably had the next direction.

Maybe Bertha was the breakthrough.

However, we can only proceed with this until we come back to work tomorrow.

Turning to look at the mediocre sandwich, Maud took it and walked towards the town's tavern.
