Chapter 272 This is the only way
“Well——”
Milo held his chin and looked at the colleague next to him who was responsible for taking notes.
I have never seen anyone in my life speak so righteously when entering the interrogation room.
The colleague calmly made a gesture to Milo - pointing to his head.
Meaning, this guy might not be in a normal state of mind.
But Milo doesn’t think so.
David Derby's state looks very familiar to Milo.
The persistent emotional agitation and excitement, the highly nervous demeanor, and the frightened body movements are all not fake.
Usually, while a murderer denies his crime, he should try his best to face the law enforcement officer in a calm state and try his best to hide his inner fear, but David did not. He directly admitted that he had killed The fact of his dead wife.
It's just that he has a different view on his wife-killing behavior.
Or, as colleagues think, there must be something wrong with this guy's mind.
Either it is a state where the san value is about to disappear.
So far Milo has seen many similar precedents. The symptoms of ordinary people with infinitely reduced sanity are very similar to David. While their behavior and speech are similar to madness, they also tend to be physically The direction of the disease continues to decline.
……
According to colleagues, if there is something wrong with David's brain, then this interrogation will be of little significance. Perhaps it is more practical to send him to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and testing.
If it is diagnosed as a mental illness, the case will be over.
Just throw people into a mental hospital.
But Milo turned over the documents in his hand and continued to ask David Derby:
"Well, how about we talk about your wife?"
< br>
He turned the file to the page of the deceased's identity information and looked at the black and white photo of the young woman in her early twenties - Asenath White.
This is a woman with dark skin and a small figure. Her appearance can be considered beautiful, but her eyes are slightly bulging, perhaps due to high myopia. However, this does not affect her overall temperament, but just looking at the photo, the expression on her face is somewhat uncomfortable...
"Why do you say that if you don't kill her, you will be the one who dies? "
"No, you won't understand. You will only hope to take me to the execution platform quickly. This is the style of your law enforcement team. I want to see my friend, Justin Joffrey. , only he can prove my innocence, only him..."
David's condition is very bad.
After a period of continuous excitement and excitement, the little energy left in his body was drained and he began to become sluggish and weak, both mentally and physically.
Milo noticed the change in David's physical condition, and he asked: "Do you need to get you something to eat, Mr. Derby?"
He looked as if he would faint at any time.
David held the table and gasped:
“No, no need, I just haven’t slept for a long time... I don’t dare to sleep, you don’t understand, I don’t want to sleep at all. If I dare to close my eyes, I have to stare at her, I have to guard her at the cellar door, I have to make sure she is dead, I am afraid that I will never wake up after I fall asleep... Gentlemen, I must see Justin , he is the only insider, please believe me, I just made the only choice I could make, she must die.”
"Are you talking about crushing Asenas's skull and guarding the body in the cellar for several days? Why did you do that? Do you think she was not dead? Or were you afraid that the body would be resurrected?" Milo said very calmly. The tone guided David. "I'm not sure if I actually ended her life, that horrible woman, because I could always hear her voice and she was smiling at me, even when I was crushing her skull. She's laughing..." David covered his face, his voice gradually became weak and feeble, as if some terrible memory had emerged in his mind, which made him feel very painful.
"So it was because she kept laughing that you smashed her face?" Milo lowered his head and glanced at the description of the murder scene in the document.
“Yes, she kept talking to me and smiling at me, you can’t imagine how scary that face is... She is the devil, my God, why would I be so blind as to be with such a scary soul? Falling in love, when I smashed half of her face, the other half of her face still maintained a smile. What’s even more terrifying is that I can still hear her voice, even... even now, I I can still hear it... Please, find Justin, please..."
David began to tremble violently, his voice became weaker and weaker, and the words he spoke were also weak. Gradually it became vague, and finally it was just meaningless mumbling.
Milo looked at him calmly from beginning to end, looking at the extremely mentally unstable murderer of his wife in front of him.
He was certain that these nagging looks were not just an act. David was not trying to avoid the guilt of murder by pretending to be crazy or stupid.
Milo could see clearly. The fear in David's eyes was real, not false at all.
But this doesn’t make sense. He is obviously a murderer, and Asenath has been confirmed to have been killed by him, so what is he still afraid of?
……
David Derby's voice grew quieter and quieter, until he fell completely silent and made no more noise.
Milo frowned.
He could feel that some subtle and imperceptible changes were taking place in the guy in front of him.
"Mr. Derby, you haven't told me why you killed Asenas." Milo continued to ask.
However, this time, he was surprised to find that there was no trace of fear in David Derby's eyes when he raised his head again. His pupils no longer trembled slightly, but became condensed and stable, giving Milo felt a strong sense of strangeness.
"Derby?" Milo looked into the other person's eyes.
However, David only looked at Milo quietly and shook his head slowly.
......
"Okay."
Milo shrugged.
It seems that the method of inducing the other party to tell the truth is ineffective.
He didn't understand why David suddenly changed like this, as if he had switched personalities in an instant.
But judging from the other party's attitude, it was obvious that there was no point in continuing the interrogation, because no matter what questions Milo raised, David only responded by shaking his head.
……
“That’s the only way it can be.”
Milo tore off a piece of white paper and pushed everything in front of David, including the pen.
“Write down Justin Joffrey’s address, and we will ask him the rest of the questions.”
Silent David Derby raised his head and glanced at Milo. Then he stretched out his left hand, picked up the pen, and wrote an address on the white paper.
