Chapter 198: Amelia’s Pre-Death Video
I grunted, “I’d like to warn her, she’d have to give me that chance, wouldn’t she? Before I could get back to her, she was already throwing herself at Robert! What was I supposed to say?”
Hannah’s eyes are full of contempt, “She can’t blame anyone else, the first thing she did when she arrived at someone else’s house was to cheat on the man of the house, where did she get the courage to be shady? If you ask me, these two sisters, they are both poisonous, not worth dying for!”
“Then if you analyze it like that, Alice’s clues are really watered down.” I muttered, “You said she was here to test me, what did she want to test?”
“You trust her to a degree, and the fact that you know Robert’s bottom line!” Albert leaned back in his chair and said languidly, “Don’t touch Sherry for a while. Let Alice wait.”
“Also, why do I get the feeling that Amelia’s visit to our house to sell her misery was directed by someone?” I added, “But I can’t figure out who directed her! Who exactly is that behind the scenes? Could it be the person who let her die? Steven?”
Anna chimed in, “Makes sense, I watched her face the whole time too. And then to see a reporter before going down on her knees, it’s obviously just for show. If she really wanted the baby, wouldn’t she have rushed in to play with you long ago?”
“Robert’s parents were also at my house at the time, with the same purpose, to get me to have a baby!” I added.
“This family, what an oddity?” Hannah spat.
“You tell me, why didn’t I think of that? If Amelia goes to sell her misery, that should mean she knows the baby is safe! Or else she acted to show it?” Hannah asked everyone.
“Yeah!” Anna nodded.
I also agree with this point of view.
“Up to the time of taking her away, she was picking fights with me?” I said indignantly, “But a few hours old and said dead! Anyway, I don’t believe there’s no problem!”
“The problem is there!” Albert said with certainty.
“How?” I was startled and looked to Albert, apparently his words were indicative of an updated clue.
“She has hallucinogens in her system!”
“Hallucinogens?”
Sure enough, Albert was sure of the results, and then also pulled out his cell phone and tapped on a screen and handed it to me, and several of the girls gathered around.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
I took the phone, and Hannah’s and Anna’s, and Leila’s heads came up and looked at the screen together.
The cell phone footage is a surveillance video, presumably of Amelia just before her death.
She was seen coming out of her house in her loose pajamas, pressing the elevator with an expressionless face, and then stepping in and leaning against the elevator box, nothing unusual to be seen on her face.
The elevator was up, and when she opened the doors, she hesitated for a moment, as if reacting to the direction, before taking a step outside.
She paused in the elevator doorway for what could have been two seconds before she lifted her leg again and headed for a door.
“The door to the rooftop!” Anna exclaimed softly.
Amelia didn’t stop walking, unhurriedly, like a walk, and a gust of wind lifted the hem of her pajama dress as she pushed open the rooftop door, with a fluttering look.
The video ended here, and Albert signaled, “Go on!”
I gave him a look and clicked on the next video connection, the screen lagged for a moment and returned to normal.
This image is a little darker.
Because it was an outside view, the rooftop had no illuminated lights, but there was enough to see the picture clearly, and the ambient lighting of the surrounding buildings reflected the fact that the place wasn’t dark.
The moment Amelia stepped onto the rooftop, she didn’t linger for a second either, heading straight for the edge of the building, floating away to be exact.
“Oopsie-daisy! Look at the look on her face, it’s the look of not realizing anything!” Hannah is a little nonplussed, “Completely unaware of the danger!”
“Yeah, it didn’t feel like she hesitated at all!” I lamented back.
“She’s supposed to have no sense of terror at all!” Anna said as she stared heartily at the image.
“Look!” Leila warned.
