You Hit My Heart
Chapter 504

"But..."

The soldier hesitated a bit and exchanged words with another soldierand finally said, "We need to ask for instructions, just a moment.”"Good." Karl waited in place.

A few moments later, a soldier came out from inside after asking forinstructions and returned the ID to Karl, “The general has instructedyou to go in."

"Go."

Karl took Joyce with him.

"Wait, who is this?" The soldier asked.

"She's with me, she's my assistant.”

"Okay." The soldier didn't stop them and let them both go in together.“It looks like something has really happened,” Karl said as he walked.Since they could let him in, he already knew in his heart that there mustbe a murder. Of course, at this point, he did not tell Joyce.

The doors of the Heath family villa were open.

Karl and Joyce both walked through the parlor, and when they firstentered, Karl frowned, "The smell of blood, so heavy."

“Is that so? I can't smell it." Joyce looked around. She could not smellthe unusual smell as Karl did, who was a professional criminal policeand with a more sensitive smell.

When they entered the main hall, they only saw a white mat on the floorand what appeared to be a corpse lying on it, covered with a whitecloth.

Cecelia had changed into a long black robe, sitting on a side chair,looking sad.

Joyce's eyelids "popped" straight.

A bad feeling rose to her heart. There were many people in the Heathfamily... So the one lying on the ground must be ... the face of Rodneysuddenly emerged in her mind. No way! Obviously, she just saw himhealthy and lively in the afternoon!

Ralph himself came out to receive Karl.

Karl bowed slightly, "General Heath, may I know what has happened tothe house?"

Ralph's face turned gloomy, his thick eyebrows deeply furrowed, andhe sighed, "My father had an accident. He fell down the stairs.Unfortunately, he died. I heard that you are the criminal police officer incharge of this precinct. I'm sorry that there was an accident at homeand I didn't call the police in time. After all, my father was once thecommander-in-chief of the military district, so we didn't want to alert thebystanders and only wanted to solve the problem within the military."Joyce heard that it was really Rodney, and for no reason, her heart wasflooded with infinite sorrow, and she felt terrible.

"Understood. The army has its autonomy, and the police are notin aposition to interfere. Just are you sure that it is an accident and not acriminal case? If a criminal case is involved, it must be handed over tothe police." Karl asked.

Ralph froze for a moment. He did not think this way before. Criminalcase? Was his father killed? However, the scene was clear, so it shouldnot be possible.

“The military doctor and forensic pathologist are here and havechecked the scene. It is true that my father accidentally fell down thestairs." He beckoned an army coroner to come forward, "If you want toknow more details, you can ask him, he is the coroner.”

Karl looked around, "It looks like the blood has been cleaned and thescene has been destroyed. If it's convenient, could I have another lookat it?"

Ralph nodded, "Yes."
