Chapter 977: Dead? What a Shame

“Help pour me a cup of coffee, thanks.” John compared earning hundreds of thousands with losing millions in his heart, then decisively gave up on this meaningless regret. He then asked about what happened just now. “That girl, are you interested?”

As he said that, his usual poker face was gone, and he winked in a vulgar manner.

Luke found that odd. “You’ve never cared about Bill’s personal life. Did you take the wrong medicine today?”

John smiled and stuck out his lip. “How brave of you to be so open in front of Selina! Hehehe.”

Saying this, his expression became even more animated.

Luke poured a cup of coffee and put it in front of him. “I dare. Do you?”

John’s mouth dropped open. He really wanted to say yes, but when he recalled the past, he realized that he had never done anything like this before.

He really had no confidence to brag about something like this.

Luke said, “I know Jessica from before. I just helped her out a little. Or should I have helped that couple?”

John compared the two parties in his head and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Luke said.

When he had been handling the case earlier, he subconsciously sided with Jessica.

A beautiful and quiet young woman always garnered more sympathy than an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

After shooting the breeze for a bit, they went back to work.

They only chatted about this small case, but John’s heart had indeed been a little gossipy.

Looking at Luke and Selina, who were as calm as ever, John could only admire them. Young people nowadays were so bold and wild.

Back then…

The bald middle-aged man suddenly remembered that he didn’t have any romantic history that was worth bragging about. His first girlfriend in high school had dumped him very quickly.

Recalling that he had been dumped by his wife recently, he felt even more depressed.

Luke, on the other hand, murmured to himself: Jessica didn’t seem to be in a good state of mind. Had the previous psychological cue worn off?

Mental illness was a complicated and tricky issue.

Even with Basic Psychology, Basic Hypnosis, Elementary Mental Communication and 40 Mental Strength, he didn’t dare say that he could cure some mental illnesses.

But a few days had passed, and the case at the pier in the park was no longer confidential.

It wasn’t a big deal to simply reveal that Kilgrave was dead.

Mental illness wasn’t that simple. Even if Jessica knew Kilgrave was dead, she wouldn’t be able to go back to normal.

But this would probably have a significant impact on her, and it wasn’t entirely impossible to alleviate some of her symptoms.

In addition, he could consult Dr. Haley on the high-schooler Molly, another of Kilgrave’s victims.

With Kilgrave dead, his final worth had to be squeezed out. Otherwise, how could he make up for all the sins he had committed?

Thinking that, Luke took out his phone and contacted Haley.

Dr. Haley said that she was free that afternoon, and that he could treat her to lunch.

Surprised by the request, Luke couldn’t help but ask, “I just introduced you to a client yesterday, and you want me to treat you today?”

Stunned for a moment, Haley burst out laughing. “Okay, my treat.”

After work at noon, when Haley arrived at the restaurant, she was amused to see Luke and Selina already inside.

Well, at least she didn’t have to worry about Detective Luke having any thoughts about her.

She had already guessed this beforehand.

No wonder your “wife” is so confident in you. You even brought her here to have a meal with a beautiful woman. You’re really… as timid as a mouse. While she was looking down with absolute disdain on a certain cowardly mouse, Haley’s expression was very normal.

After lunch, everybody chatted about business while they enjoyed dessert.

“You want to know about that Monroe, right?” Haley said directly, “His condition is very interesting. He’s suffering from an unusual case of schizophrenia. I suspect that he…”

After talking for a long time, she finally came out of professional mode, only to see the two people opposite her looking bored.

Luke sipped his coffee lazily while Selina ate her strawberry sundae.

Haley sighed. “You’re not here for Monroe!”

Luke smiled and looked around. He then took out a file from his bag and pushed it over. “I’m more concerned about Molly’s condition.”

Frowning, Haley opened the file and said, “She’s in really bad condition. It might take a long time for her to recover, unless she sees Kilgrave die in front of her… Huh?”

Luke shrugged. “There lies the problem. I can clear the way, as long as you’re willing to take her to the morgue to see the body. Unfortunately, I can’t bring him back to life and make him die again.”

Haley was lost for words in the face of Luke’s offhand demeanor. She read the file carefully, and couldn’t help but ask, “Did you kill him?”

Luke said, “According to the file, the Detective Bureau happened to find his body in a case.”

Seeing the case description, Haley shook her head regretfully. “Really? What a shame.”

Luke asked, “Is there a problem? Is this bad news for Molly?”

“No, it’s definitely great news.” Haley shook her head decisively. “Of course, if she can see Kilgrave’s body with her own eyes, it might help her condition. I’ll consider taking her to the morgue as a backup plan.”

She thought to herself that it was a shame that this strange creature had died just like that. She had planned to study him.

Luke nodded. “A week. His body will be in the morgue at the forensics department for a week.”

Haley said, “The day after tomorrow at most. I’ll come up with a plan. A week is plenty of time.”

Luke said, “I hope you can keep in touch with me about Molly’s treatment. I want to know if this helps.”

Haley frowned. “Why?”

She didn’t like it when other people meddled with her patients, even if Luke was the one who had sent the patient to her.

Luke said, “I want to see things through. After all, I was the one who saved Molly, and Richard is a nice guy.”

Haley didn’t think there was anything wrong with that.

It was very common for detectives to have a closer relationship with the victims, which was similar to the relationship doctors had with their patients.

Luke had Selina, this “personal bodyguard,” so the chances of him falling for Molly were very low.

It was like how people tended to be more concerned about cats or dogs that they had rescued themselves.

Thinking that, she said, “Sure, I’ll let you know what the results are like.”
