Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Thanks to the clues provided by Josh, the case was swiftly resolved.

Of course, Layton did not explicitly mention that Josh was the source of the clues. If he had, the police might have grown suspicious of Josh. Instead, he attributed the findings to Blake, ensuring there were no issues on their end.

The following day, when Anthony returned home, he shared with Josh the information he had received from Layton.

It turned out that Hex had forcefully assaulted the child, leading to the child’s father becoming enraged and physically confronting him. Overwhelmed by anger, the father ended up killing Hex.

Upon returning home, the father’s anger continued to brew, and he took a knife and went to Hex’s residence, where he committed the act of murder.

“After Hex’s death, the child’s mother, pretending to be pregnant, took the head onto the train,” Anthony explained.

“Pregnant women undergo different security checks than others.”

Furthermore, they went to great lengths by driving to a neighboring county town and boarding the train at a small town along its route, where the security checks were not as stringent.

The train journey lasted for three days, covering a long distance.

“The father acted impulsively out of anger. The mother did not want him to face the consequences of the murder, so she spent a significant amount of time disposing of the body.”

To dispose of the remains, they dismembered certain parts, while the larger bones proved more challenging to handle and were discarded.

However, dealing with an intact human head, a complete skull, posed even greater difficulties. The child’s mother carried the head on the train for two days before finally discarding it just before reaching their intended destination.

“They believed that if they threw it far enough, it would be fine.”

Anthony provided a brief overview of the case to Josh.

Josh let out a sigh and inquired, “So, how many years will the child’s father be sentenced to?”

Anthony replied, “I’m not certain about that.”
