Chapter 88
The living room was right downstairs, which was also where Janetta was killed years ago.
“If Balch had installed surveillance cameras around, we would definitely have caught Janetta’s murder on tapel Seraphina asked, looking expectantly at Terrell
“No clues so far, Terrell replied “The surveillance footage only shows ordinary daily life”
Upon hearing this, Seraphina continued to scrutinize the surveillance video
Indeed, the footage showed nothing but Janetta’s day to day activities at home. No suspicious activities were captured
“The footage has been edited” Terrell said. “Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only footage of Janetta Balch also lived in this house, we would have seen him on camera”
Seraphina’s eyes drifted toward a seriously damaged chip
Terrell noticed her gaze and said, “Don’t bother. This chip is so badly burnt, it’s beyond repair”
Seraphina picked up the chip and examined it. “What are the odds it’s this chip?”
Terrell sighed stood up, and went into the bathroom to freshen up, leaving Seraphina alone in front of the computer, silently watching the footage play out.

“Forget it, maybe it’s just fate,” Terrell said “There’s no way to prove his involvement in Janetta’s murder. Balch is cunning You’ve done well so far, but maybe it’s time to let it go.”
