Chapter 97

"You make it sound like you're in quite a difficult spot," thought Jennifer.

She pointed at the computer.

Roy pulled it over and glanced at the screen.

The screen was black except for a small red dot.

After a few minutes, the red dot flickered and moved to a different position, and all the surrounding streets on the map slowly appeared.

Roy immediately knew this was the criminalโ€™s location.

He picked up the computer and was about to leave.

"Thanks."

โ€œAsking me to track down someone isnโ€™t cheap!โ€ Jennifer called after him.

Royโ€™s steps paused slightly.

He stood at the door and didnโ€™t leave immediately. โ€œI know. Iโ€™m helping you find the person.โ€

Jenniferโ€™s expression darkened, and her voice softened a lot.

โ€œThanks.โ€

โ€œYouโ€™ve been looking for so long and still havenโ€™t found them. Youโ€™re pretty persistent,โ€ said Roy.

Jennifer started sipping her tea.

โ€œA person has to be a little persistent, right?โ€

โ€œBye.โ€

Roy came quickly and left quickly.

The two women left behind were not in a hurry.

They leisurely enjoyed their afternoon tea in the private room.

โ€œDo you know who Roy is trying to catch?โ€ asked Jennifer.

Jessica shook her head.

The last time they met, Roy said he wanted Jenniferโ€™s help.

She agreed.

That same night, Jennifer hacked into the entire criminal investigation teamโ€™s computers.

She even upgraded their firewall and changed Royโ€™s computer desktop to a photo of a beautiful woman.

Roy was so angry he almost called to scold her.

But Roy didnโ€™t say anything.

She found all the case files on the computer herself, read their analysis files, and started tracking the targetโ€™s location.

Of course, Roy recognized Jenniferโ€™s skills.

But even such a powerful and free-spirited woman was trapped by one person.

Chapter 97

โ€œI looked at the case files on Royโ€™s computer. If Iโ€™m right, this is related to the Hall family case. I suspect this person might be a hitman hired by the Hall family. I checked his bank transactions and spending records and found a car registered under his name.โ€

Roy took the computer with him.

Jennifer could only use her phone.

She pulled up the license plate number and handed it to Jessica.

Jessica only glanced at it but immediately straightened up.

She would never forget that license plate number.

It was the car that had hit and killed her father.

Jessica turned to look at her.

โ€œYou mean this person is connected to the one who killed my dad?โ€

Jennifer told Jessica not to get too emotional yet.

โ€œIt wasnโ€™t necessarily this man, but they definitely had a connection. The criminal was the first owner of the car. He had owned it for less than two months before selling it to someone else. Not long after, the car was stolen. That same month, her father was hit and killed. This couldnโ€™t be a coincidence. There were simply no coincidences like this in the world.โ€

โ€œSo thatโ€™s why you took the case and helped Roy search for so long,โ€ Jessica realized.

Jennifer put away her phone.

โ€œI know this has always been a knot in your heart. Itโ€™s not just youโ€”even Mrs. Wilder feels it. I wanted to help.โ€

Jessica didnโ€™t know what to say.

They didnโ€™t need to thank each other.

After a long pause, Jessica said, โ€œWhat else do you want to eat? Iโ€™m paying.โ€

Jennifer smiled.

โ€œThen thank you, Ms. Wilder, for the treat.โ€

Actually, with the salary Jessica paid Jennifer, she could easily afford a membership here.

But Jennifer wasnโ€™t impulsive about high spending.

She traveled around often, so if she could get a free ride, she would.

No need to get her own membership.
