The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 251 The Woman in White

Shitstrong didn’t want to tell others about the body hanging on the rope inside the room; he didn’t want anyone to think he was scared by a corpse, especially since he was a forensic pathologist. Being frightened by a corpse would be an utter embarrassment for Shitstrong, and he couldn't even imagine the kind of ridicule he would face if others knew.

So, he had to act as though he saw nothing at all.

"A joke?" Ava’s face darkened as she scolded Shitstrong in a very serious tone, "Shitstrong, we're investigating a crime here. Do you think it's appropriate to make such jokes at this time? What if your screaming scared Mia away? Then all our efforts in coming here would be for nothing."

Upon realizing Ava was upset, Shitstrong quickly ducked his head and apologized to Ava like a chastened dog, "Sarge, I'm sorry! Sarge, I was wrong! Sarge, I promise I’ll never make the same mistake again!"

Ava ignored Shitstrong and stepped towards the room. As soon as she entered, she heard a creaking sound. The body hanging from the rope suddenly started to spin, and the combination of the twisting rope and the light fixture created an eerie noise.

Creak... creak...

"Ahh... ahh..." Overwhelmed by fear, Ava screamed and ran back towards the door. Seeing Ava’s terrified face, Daniel chuckled. He cheekily asked, "Sarge, were you also joking around with us?"

"Joking? Joke about your ass!" Ava patted her chest, her perfect assets swaying. Upon calming down, she said, "There’s a woman in white hanging from the light in the room; it looks like she's hanged herself."

"Were you frightened by the hanging woman in white, Sarge? Or was it because the woman looked familiar that scared you?"

Daniel's words left Ava confused. She felt there was an underlying message, so she curiously asked, "Familiar woman in white, what do you mean?"

"Sarge, when you entered the room, that woman in white must have turned around, right? Didn't you see her face? Don't you think she looked very familiar?"
