Chapter 1162 - 1162:

It was also during this time.

Dirk Carter got some sleep.

The first thing he did upon waking up was call Elbert Rivers in and ask, "Has there been any call from Mountridge County?"

Elbert Rivers shook his head.

He said, "Not yet, Director Woods is currently coordinating with the local police, but at present, it seems very difficult to retrace Secretary General Levin's movements before his death."

This result.

Was also within Dirk Carter's expectations.

Hansel Levin took a cab by himself to the Five Peaks Mountain Scenic Area.

This meant there were no eyewitnesses.

According to the hospital's surveillance footage at the time.

Hansel Levin was dropped off at the entrance by an ordinary van without a license plate, and then was thrown out of the back seat before disappearing into the night.

Though Mountridge County is considered a major tourist destination.

Its economic status is quite different from that of Greshire County.

The monitoring conditions on many roads are very inadequate.

Hoping to trace that vehicle is undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack.

As he was pondering the next steps to take.

The phone on the desk suddenly rang.

"This is Dirk Carter."

Picking up the receiver, Dirk Carter said.

On the phone, the voice of Heath Woods came through.

"Secretary General Carter, a woman has turned herself in at the county police station; she says she was involved with Hansel Levin that night..."

The woman's name is Adriana Eames.

A local of Mountridge County.

She claimed that during the act, Hansel Levin's face suddenly turned purple, and his body showed convulsive symptoms.

Terrified, she immediately called her cousin.

The cousin drove a van together with her to drop him off at the county hospital entrance.

After dumping Hansel Levin, they ran away.

Due to fear that night, she didn't dare report it to the police. Today, after reflecting, she felt she should take responsibility, so she went into the police station to surrender.

This was a breakthrough piece of good news.

Dirk Carter pondered for a moment and asked, "What was her relationship with Hansel Levin?"

Heath Woods replied, "She confessed there was nothing special between them, she was called over by a company president to accompany Hansel Levin, and this president's name is Noelle Meyer, the chairwoman of Seaview Group..."

His mind buzzed.

Dirk Carter was momentarily stunned.

He asked, "Who did you say?"

"The chairwoman of Seaview Group, Noelle Meyer. That's what Adriana Eames confessed,"

Heath Woods repeated.

Realizing the gravity of the situation instantly, Dirk Carter paused and said, "Send a few people to protect this woman named Adriana Eames first, then check the location where the act happened with the police. I'm heading over now."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone.

Dirk Carter couldn't afford to delay.

He immediately had Elbert Rivers arrange for a vehicle and rushed to Mountridge County in a hurry.

Around eight-thirty in the morning.

Dirk Carter's car pulled into the parking lot of the Mountridge County Police Department.

At this time.

Heath Woods was already waiting at the door.

Upon seeing Dirk Carter get out of the car.

He immediately approached him.

"Didn't I ask you to check the room where the incident happened with the police?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Heath Woods said, "After you gave the order, we went with the Mountridge County Police Department's Criminal Police Brigade and collected some hair at the scene, which has been submitted for testing. Additionally, we found some male remnants in Adriana Eames's body, which have also been extracted for examination."

"Are the results out yet?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Heath Woods looked at his watch.

"It's not that quick; it will probably take a few more hours. However, the photos from the scene have already been developed."

After saying that.

He handed a stack of photos to Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter picked them up and looked.

This was a very luxuriously decorated guest room.

The guest room was a mess.

Especially the bed, it was obvious that someone had been engaged in vigorous activity on it.

A pair of shoes was placed at the foot of the bed.

Some clothes were strewn haphazardly across the sofa.

They belonged to Hansel Levin.

There were also signs of a bath being taken in the bathroom.

And on the coffee table in the living room, there was leftover water.

All signs indicated this could very well be the crime scene.

The subsequent photos.

Showed a full view of the location of this room.

Dirk Carter picked it up and asked, "Where is this place?"

"A luxury B&B at the foot of Five Peaks Mountain, called 'Mount Prospect.'"

"Is there any surveillance?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Heath Woods shook his head.

"This B&B has only been open for a short time and hasn't had the chance to install surveillance yet. We've also taken the owner's statement; he said at the time Adriana Eames brought Hansel Levin to the pre-booked room. As for what happened at midnight, he was asleep and unaware."

Dirk Carter looked at the photos thoroughly.

He said, "Since the test results aren't out yet, let me go see this Adriana Eames first."

"Okay, Secretary General Carter, please follow me."

Just as the two of them were about to walk in.

A burst of enthusiastic shouting came from the entrance: "Secretary General Carter, is it really you? Oh my, why didn't you give me a heads-up..."

A middle-aged man in a white police uniform came running out of the door.

His physique was rather "plump."

So running was a bit of a struggle for him.

He reached them.

Already covered in sweat.

He didn't even bother to wipe it off.

He proactively reached out his hand to Dirk Carter.

Heath Woods quickly said, "Vice County Mayor of Mountridge County and Chief of the Police Department, Ryan Rhodes."

"Oh, Director Rhodes, nice to meet you."

Dirk Carter immediately responded warmly.

Ryan Rhodes said in a fawning manner, "Secretary General Carter, you must be tired from the journey, come, let's head to my office for some air conditioning..."

"No need, Director Rhodes, I'd like to see the female suspect first."

"Oh, oh sure, Secretary General Carter, you're so dedicated, truly a role model for us. I really admire..."

The flattering words were cut short.

By Dirk Carter interrupting him.

"Director Rhodes, let's skip the pleasantries and get to business."

"Yes, yes, business, let's tend to business first, Secretary General Carter, I'll personally take you there."

After he finished speaking.

He gestured invitingly to Dirk Carter.

Under his guide.

They walked into the detention room of the police department.

Of course.

Dirk Carter didn't push the door open and enter.

He just wanted to see what this woman looked like.

One had to admit, Adriana Eames was very beautiful, dressed fashionably and sensually.

Her body proportion was also very perfect.

Such a woman.

Could indeed make Hansel Levin give it his all.

"Do you have any information on this person?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Just as Heath Woods was about to answer, Ryan Rhodes eagerly interjected and said, "Yes, Secretary General Carter, we have all of it; the police department has thoroughly investigated her."

A few minutes later.

In the office of the Synthetic Operations Center.

Dirk Carter saw the basic information on Adriana Eames.

Adriana Eames is 24 years old, a local of Mountridge County. Previously, she worked as a hostess in a local nightclub because she was pretty and had a good figure, so her income was quite decent.
