Chapter 139 Little Surprise(2/3)
Bowen's father seemed to feel something was wrong, "Inspector Luke, why are you asking in such detail? Is there any problem?"
"The school's electricity was damaged. The police could only learn as much as possible about the shooting through the students' descriptions." After Luke explained, he continued to ask,
"Bowen, do you know Fanny?'
"I know her. She is my classmate."
"Are you familiar with it?
"I don't know how to answer that."
"Answer truthfully."
"She likes me.'
Anthony showed an unexpected expression, "Why do you like Fa?"
Bowen glanced at his father, "She pays close attention to me and likes to peek at me casually. She is often there where I appear. Although she doesn't say it explicitly, I can feel it.
"Oh, it's normal at this age. It was the same when I was in school. Many girls would give me gifts. Some girls would also plant notes for me and ask me to be together at night... Xiaohei winked and looked like you
Looks like he understands.
Luke interrupted and said with some dissatisfaction, "Gentlemen, let me ask, 0k?'
Xiao Hei stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation, "Of course, you are the boss."
Anthony clasped his hands in front of him, expressionless.
Luke continued to ask, "Did you see Fanny when the shooting happened?'
Bowen thought for a while, "I can't remember clearly. The situation at that time was very chaotic. Moreover, she simply liked me, but she was not my type. My father would not let me date a black man.
Bowen's father said, "Nonono, I won't interfere with you. As long as you are happy, remember to take measures. Young people can try more to know what they really like.
Bowen was a little surprised, "You didn't say that before."
"Uh..." Bowen's father pondered for a moment, "In the past, I was indeed a bit harsh on you, and I hoped you would avoid detours. But in the past two years, I have discovered that you are too sensible.
This made me realize that my education may not be very suitable in some aspects.
Sorry, I am also a father for the first time
"No, you've done a great job." Bowen's eyes were red, "I love you."
"I love you too, son." Bowen's father hugged his son's shoulders and showed a pleased look.
Luke couldn't bear to ruin this warm scene, but out of his duties as a police officer, he had to say, "Do you know Chad Kress?"
Bowen was stunned for a moment, "We are the same age.'
"Familiar?
Bowen shook his head.
"I heard there was a little dispute between you.'
Bowen looked a little nervous, "He is... a difficult person to get along with. He likes to push me, tease me, and touch me." "Have you told your father?
"No, I don't want them to worry.
Bowen's father said, 'Son, you should have told me.'
Bowen lowered his head and said, "If parents get involved, things may be more troublesome, so I want to handle it myself.
The good news is, I graduate in a year, so I don’t have to see that annoying guy anymore.’
"Did you see Chad Kress when the shooting happened?'
"No.
"You're sure.'
"Yes, if he is here, I will definitely know."
"Have you ever been to the third floor of the teaching building before and after the shooting?'
"No.'
"sure?
"Yes.'
"Do you know Josie Alyssa?"
(Female deceased in the toilet on the third floor)
"no.
"Barbara Dambu?" (Severely injured person in the corridor on the third floor
"Well, she seems to be Chad Kress's girlfriend.
Zhan Ke wrote down in his notebook, "Thank you, the clues you provided are very useful."
"By the way, did you see either of them when the shooting happened?"
"No.'
"Sure?'
"Yes.'
"Very well, thank you for your assistance." Luke stood up and turned to Bowen's father, "Mr. Pilton, thank you too, and please don't shoot in residential areas anymore.
"OK.'
Luke asked seemingly casually, "Bowen, did you want to learn to shoot because of the shooting? Or was your father worried about safety issues and actively wanted to teach you?"
Bowen said, “It’s what I want to learn.
Afterwards, Luke and his group left the house.
The Bowen and his son sent Luke and others outside the house.
Anthony returned the revolver to Bowen's father, and looked at Bowen beside him, "Now your father agrees. Will you date Fanny?'
Bowen thought for a while, "I don't know yet. She is more mature than I thought. When I get to school, I may take the initiative to talk to her to confirm her thoughts.
Anthony stared at him, "You have no chance."
"Why?" Bowen forced a smile, "Do you want to compete with me?"
"Fanny is dead.
Bowen's smile faded, "Are you kidding me?"
"Although I like to see jokes, I never joke about things like this.
Not only is Fanny dead, but Chad, who you had a conflict with, and Chad's girlfriend Barbara were shot. Three of the four victims were your acquaintances. This is why the FBI wants to talk to you.'
Bowen's father blocked his son and glared at Anthony, "What do you mean? What are you implying? Speak clearly." Luke separated the two of them, "Mr. Pilton, this is just a routine inquiry.
Anthony, you go back to the car first.
Anthony glanced at Bowen and said, "You can't lie to me, we will meet again.
Bowen's father shouted, "Get out of my house, I don't care who you are? If you dare to threaten my son again, I will be rude to you."
Luke tried to persuade, but the attitudes of the father and son had changed, and they were very resistant. At this time, no matter how much they said, it was useless, so he got in the car and left.
After getting in the car, Luke asked, "Anthony, we just said that I would be the main subject of this inquiry? Why do you want to anger the Bowen and his son?"
"All my colleagues are dead.
"I know, and I'm sad too, but there's no point in irritating the father and son. It's impossible for Bowen to admit it before there's enough evidence. It will only expose the police's intentions in advance.'
Anthony said, "If Bowen is not the murderer, it doesn't matter if he is exposed.
If Bowen is the murderer, he has been alert since he found him. I don't think there is any difference.
"You are right. There is no difference in Bowen's case, but Bowen's father does. If we want to question Bowen, his guardian needs to be present. If Bowen's father is resistant, it will cause certain difficulties in the interrogation.
.'
Anthony glanced back at Luke and said, "You are quite good at saying that, but there are other reasons why I do this."
"what reason?'
“Have you ever heard of microexpressions?
"certainly.'
"People's emotions will affect their expressions. Even if they try their best to restrain themselves, there will be subtle changes. The greater the emotional fluctuations in the heart, the greater the changes in expressions.
That's why I gave Bowen and Sons a hard blow.
I had been observing Bowen's expression just now. His face showed fear, not surprise.
You must know that Chad Kress has been bullying him, and now that he hears the news of his death, he may be surprised and frightened, but I only see fear on his face, not surprise.
This shows that he should have known about this before.’
Luke recalled the reaction of the Bowen father and son, "What was his father's emotion at that time?"
