Gavin said awkwardly, “Well maybe I got mixed up! I have to clean so many rooms every day, it’s easy to lose track of which is which!”
Ellinor laughed, “Gavin, with a memory like yours, do you often serve the wrong dishes? If you’re always like this, I doubt your boss will keep you on for long!”
Waiter Gavin’s eyes flickered nervously, I’m not feeling well today, so my memory’s a bit off. Miss, you forcibly took the soup pot from me to hurt that kid. Why are you trying to pin it on me now?”
“Did I say you had anything to do with the kid’s burns? I’m just looking for the memory card” Ellinor snickered, then turned serious, “Gavin, it’s not too late to hand over the memory card Otherwise. I’ll call the cops and let them use their professional means to find out who took the memory card instead!
I’m sure you were careful to wipe off your fingerprints when you took the memory card! But what you might not know is that police technology is so advanced now that even if you wiped off your fingerprints, the air around you would have recorded your body cells for up to 24 hours. The police just need to collect these cells from the air with their special equipment, and they can immediately verify whether the suspect’s DNA matches yours! That’s called the Body Cell Evidence Law!
If the police find out you took the memory card, combined with your illogical behavior, it would be hard for them not to suspect you of causing premeditated harm
to the child‘
Her words left the three highly educated gentlemen, Theo, Balfour, and Bartlett, puzzled. They looked at each other, wondering if they’d heard wrong. What was this “Body Cell Evidence Law?
That’s night, Ellinor made it up! There was no such law, she was just trying to scare Gavin.
Gavin, not well educated, didn’t understand what body cells were. But seeing how confident she sounded, he believed her and was terrified.
He was scared that the advanced police technology would find his DNA and he freaked out, “I… I didn’t! I have no grudge against you, why would I hurt a kid I don’t
know?”
Ellinor seized the opportunity to press him, “So admit it, did you take the memory card? Who told you to?”
Gavin became extremely uneasy and began subconsciously looking at Patricia, “She asked me to…”
The truth was about to be exposed. Ellinor narrowed her eyes, “Who is she?”
Gavin looked confused and was struggling to cope with the situation. His eyes fell on Patricia as if his defenses were about to break, “It’s…”
Suddenly, Patricia began to cough as if she were choked by something.
“Patn, what’s wrong?” Balfour, worried, supported his sister and gently patted her back.
Patricia coughed for a while before slowly recovering. Her face was pale, and she said weakly, “Bro, I’m okay, just a bit choked by the smell of the kitchen’s smoke.”
Balfour breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as you’re okay.”
During the coughing fit, Patricia had secretly signaled Gavin.
Gavin paused as if he had received some sort of prompt or threat. He looked around in confusion, then suddenly pointed at Ellinor, “It was you! Weren’t you the one who asked me to take the memory card from the camera? You said you were afraid of being caught and sent to jail for hurting the kid, so you transferred some money to me and asked me to destroy the evidence on the memory card. Now you’re trying to put all the blame on me! You really can’t be trusted”
Ellinor’s eyebrows furrowed, the situation was back in Patricia’s hands!
