Chapter 1075 Wayne Was Found Dead In Leia’s Bedroom

Queenie turned around and wanted to get her phone to dial for emergency services when she caught a glimpse of the pool of redness in Leia's room.

"Ahh!" She noticed the man lying in the middle of the pool. It was Wayne Blatt, the wanted criminal!

Queenie's face turned pale, and her heart started to pound faster. She could not catch her breath, and she fell on the floor and passed out.

Leia felt a thud next to her. She opened her eyes slightly and saw Queenie passed out next to her. 'Useless!' She thought.

She continued to lie on the floor. Her surroundings were totally quiet, and her nostrils were filled with the thick stench of blood. The blood belonged to Wayne. She would have gone into the room and felt the blood turn cold with her fingers if not that it would be hard to explain her actions later on.

Leia did not feel very comfortable, but she did not want to get up. Instead, she remained in that position and waited for her father to return.

Meanwhile, Abel evaded all the security cameras, left the Norman residence, and went into Hera's car.

"Ugh, why is there so much blood?" Hera asked. Her stomach began to churn when she smelled blood.

"I slit that man's throat," Abel said. There was still a glint of bloodthirstiness in his eyes.

Hera could not help but shudder when she heard that. 'You slit that guy's throat? How barbaric!' "Are you hurt?" She pretended to be concerned.

"That's not possible," Abel said while taking off his clothes. He had prepared another set of clothes because he knew that the encounter was going to be bloody.

Hera was quite surprised by Abel's ability to kill another person without getting injured.

She knew that Wayne was a special forces soldier who had injured several police officers while escaping. : owner of this content.

However, Abel could kill him without getting hurt. As she started the car, she asked, "What are you going to do with those clothes?" "Find somewhere hidden and burn them." Abel was not going to leave any trace of his crime.

"Okay.” Hera knew where such a place was, so she drove there.

The next morning, Luke was woken up by a call from Percy.

"Serious news." "What is it?" Luke was worried that the news might concern Bianca.

Hearing Luke's anxious tone, Percy said, "Don't worry, it's not about your wife. It's Wayne Blatt."

He felt slightly relieved when he heard that it was not about Bianca. "What happened to Wayne?"

Wayne was being wanted throughout the country. They had suspected that Wayne was related to Bianca's disappearance, but they did not have any evidence.

"Wayne Blatt is dead. His body was found in the Norman residence. When Mr. Norman came home last night, he found his wife and daughter passed out on the floor, so he called the police. The body was found in a horrific state. The police haven't announced anything yet; they don't want to cause a panic," Percy said. He had just received the information too.

"Did Leia kill him?" Luke asked. He knew that Leia had a grudge against Wayne.

"What a creative guess. There's not a hint of blood on Leia's body. The entire bedroom floor is covered with blood, but there were none of her footsteps either. It meant that she wasn't in the room when Wayne died, and she passed out when she saw the body. The police are still investigating the reasons behind the murder, but I think that it's too suspicious," Percy said. He called Luke to tell him his suspicions.

"Indeed, it's suspicious." Luke stood up. "If Wayne is found dead in the

Norman residence and Leia isn't the killer, the killer must be someone else.

Who could they be, and why would they want to kill Wayne?" "I guess that they want to help Leia..." Percy guessed. "From the preliminary autopsy findings, the killer isn't a weak woman like Leia." "Well have to get to the bottom of this," Luke said decisively. He planned to go to the police station later.

"Sure. I knew you'd say that." Percy could guess that Luke would want to investigate the matter, so he had already made arrangements.

After the call, Luke went downstairs. Old Master Crawford and the children were already eating their breakfast at the dining table.

"You're awake." Old Master Crawford nodded at Luke. "Eat your breakfast.

You'll be very busy today." "You already know what happened at the Norman residence?" Luke asked.

"Mm. The police want to withhold the news, but they can't withhold it from me," Old Master Crawford said and took a sip of milk. "I heard about the news earlier. You should go over to the Norman residence and see if they need any help." "Mm." Luke nodded and sat down.

Lanie overheard the conversation and asked curiously, "Daddy, what happened at Grandpa's house?" "It's nothing. You should eat more." Luke placed a bread roll on Lanie's plate.

Lanie did not ask any more questions. He knew that it was a matter among the adults.

After breakfast, Luke sent the children to school, then went to the Norman residence.

Police officers were going in and out of the Norman residence. Jack was sitting on the couch with a solemn expression on his face.

The caretaker came and told him, "Mr. Crawford is here, Sir." "Ask him to come in," Jack lifted his head and said. He knew that Luke would be here. After all, Luke had suspected that Wayne had abducted Bianca.

Now that Wayne was dead, Bianca's abductor was unknown.

Luke came into the house and nodded at Jack. "Dad." "Mm." Luke stood up. The police were almost done with gathering evidence. He brought Luke upstairs and said, "You're quite well-informed." "You can't hide news this big for too long," Luke said. The police said that they withheld the news so that there would not be a panic, but actually, they were doing it to maintain Jack's reputation.

A wanted criminal was found dead in a high-ranking official's house. Before the official investigation results were out, the resulting gossip would be extremely disadvantageous for Jack.

"I know. I'm only hoping that they'll find out something soon." Jack sighed as he looked at the police officers walking to and fro. "The fact that Wayne Blatt is found dead in Leia's room is enough to spawn a thousand rumors."

He brought Luke to Leia's bedroom. The area was still off-limits. Standing beyond the cordon, Luke could see the dried patch of blood on the floor.

All of that blood belonged to Wayne Blatt.

Wayne died because someone slit his throat. When Jack called the police, there was barely any blood left in his body.

The stench of blood was still thick in the air. There were not many signs of battle in the room, but Luke could make several observations.

For example, the blood-stained photo album. Wayne must have toppled it after he was injured.

According to the police markers, the corpse was facing a wall. If Wayne was attacked from behind, blood would have splattered on the wall.

However, there was only one spot of blood on the wall. It must mean that the person who slit his throat must have been standing in front of him, and most of the blood splashed on that person's body.
