Chapter 296

Athena túrned to Adele, her expression thoughtful. "You're absolutely right. Solving a case is a serious and meticulous task. No matter how agreeable, reasonable, or logical the analysis might be, there must be solid evidence to prove someone is the murderer. In Mrs.

Graham's case, neither Mr. Graham nor I found any concrete evidence."

Adele's voice was slightly choked. "In that case, why did you say such a thing? I'm almost eighty years old. It's cruel of you to say that about me..."

"However, we will find a way to find evidence," Athena interrupted her. "If we fail, we will make you hand it over."

The people present were shocked, not knowing what that meant

Adele shook her head. "How can I hand over the so-called evidence for something I didn't do?"

I guess that the phone call Mrs. Graham received probably told her that someone was having a date with Mr. Graham on the roof and asked her to check it if she didn't believe it. Athena's eyes were locked onto Adele's face. "Mrs. Graham already knew who Mr. Graham was. So why was she so agitated by his secret rendezvous with his lover? She didn't even seem to care that her son was blowing out his birthday candles. She insisted on heading to the rooftop to investigate!"

Everyone knew the answer.

You didn't have to worry about men, children, or even distant relatives and friends. Your physical condition was well-maintained, allowing you to easily move between the third floor and the rooftop.
