Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard)
Chapter 1152

How could there be a cigarette butt in the ladies' restroom?

Pearl was sure a man must have taken Esther. Maybe it was a crime done by many people.

Richard picked up the cigarette butt and looked at it closely. Then, he sadly shook his head. "This brand is found everywhere. It looks like we won't find much here."

"No," Pearl said as she carefully wrapped the cigarette butt in a napkin. "We can check it for DNA. I have to find out who it is."

Richard gave Pearl an admiring look. "Should we go get the test done now?"

Pearl frowned. "No, going back now will waste too much time. I'll call Wayne to come here, and I'll give it to him to test. Let's keep looking for Esther."

Richard looked at the floor. The floor was muddy because it had just rained. There were unclear footprints in the mud.

"This might be the culprits' footsteps."

Pearl squatted down to look at the footprints closely. She had learned how to investigate from an experienced police officer abroad. So, she was sure that two tall men, over 180 cm, had taken Esther. After they left the restroom, they saw tire tracks by the road.

"They must have waited for Esther in the restroom before taking her to a car by the road. Then, they drove off."

Unfortunately, it was too dark, and Pearl couldn't tell if the car had gone east or west.

Richard looked both ways and said, "He must have gone west."

Surprised, Pearl asked, "Why?"

"If you go east, you'll reach the city. The city has many lights at night, and the roads are straight with few turns. There are also police checking cars. It would be easy to catch the bad guys there. "But to the west, it's near the mountains."

Pearl turned pale thinking about the mountains. "Could it be human trafficking?"

Richard looked serious. "I think so."

If they were dealing with human trafficking, they needed to act fast to save Esther. "Richard, go get your car. We'll head west."

It was late at night.

Esther slowly opened her eyes in a moving car.

She wanted to scream when she saw she was in a strange place. But she realized she couldn't. Her mouth was taped shut.

She was in a cramped van with a man driving and another guy sitting next to her. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
