Chapter 386 Ask a Few Questions
The woman who was crying the hardest was still talking to the police. “I don’t know what’s going on. I came to find her in the evening to talk about where to go for a vacation. Halfway through, I heard someone come to deliver dinner. Iliana was introverted and brought the steak in only after the waiter left. At that time, she wanted me to eat with her. I thought that I could have a share of it. We are ordinary workers and have never had steak before. But before I went back, she collapsed at the table. Sir, you must find out the truth!
“Iliana is a poor girl. Her father was dead and her mother was **and hospitalized. Even the medical expenses are a problem for her. What happened to her? Why did she ***?”
The policeman took the statement seriously and asked, “Can you describe everything you saw at that time?”
“Okay, I was…”
Ainsley listened and sneered. This woman ***at lying. If the medical expenses were a problem for Iliana, how could she spend so much money staying in a luxurious hotel?
From the first day they came, Ainsley felt that something was wrong.
It seemed that it was a scheme against PineMist Island.
She turned to look at the woman in the room. Who was she?
In fact, it was not difficult to guess. Halfmoon Island and PineMist Island opened at the same time.. Due to the theft of the Wade Group, the reputation of Halfmoon Island declined while it was the opposite for PineMist Island.
If Irene wanted to reverse this situation, she could only make the reputation of PineMist Island plummet.
But Ainsley did not expect that the method was based on a person’s life.
Ainsley laughed at herself. That was reasonable. Didn’t Irene always do things like this?
To achieve her goal, she never cared about the value of life.
The hotel was surrounded. If the police hadn’t been here earlier, the corridor would have been packed with people.
Even so, the number of rubbernecks was still increasing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSomeone ***in a hotel on PineMist Island due to a piece of steak. Ainsley even came up with the title of
the headlines.
“Where is the manager of the hotel?” asked a policeman as he walked over.
“It’s me.” Ainsley walked over.
“Inform the chefs and ask them to immediately leave the cafeteria. Go find out the rooms the steak has
been delivered to. Stop the guests from eating and collect the rest of the steak as evidence. Our people
will follow your staff,” the policeman said coldly.
Ainsley nodded and let the manager arrange it. She frowned slightly and asked, “Sir, can I know what’s
going on?”
“You don’t know what’s going on?” The policeman glanced at her. “A guest ate the steak your hotel
provided and ****on the spot.”
“I just found out.” Ainsley clenched her fists.
Her only thought right now was to inform Matteo of this matter. After all, the mastermind must have done
more than this.
“Tell the people in the hotel that no one can leave now.”
At this time, those women rushed to Ainsley. “It’s all your fault! Iliana was killed. Sir, please arrest. her
now!”
“If anything happens to Iliana, you must be responsible! Your staff killed her!”
A policeman protected Ainsley. “****, don’t be agitated. We will investigate this matter. Before . the results
are out, you can’t act rashly.”
The woman who came out of Iliana’s room had been hiding behind the police station. She touched. her
***and her eyes were blinking.
Ainsley asked, “Miss, can I ask you a few questions?”
The woman looked at Ainsley in disbelief and pointed at herself. “Me?
“Your staff killed Iliana. What do you want to ask me?” Her eyes flashed, and she did not dare to jook at
Ainsley.
“Miss, I just want to ask a few questions. What are you afraid of?” Ainsley was unwilling to give up.
In front of the police, the woman could not keep refusing, or she would arouse suspicion.
She could only bite the bullet and nod in agreement. “But I won’t answer all of them.”
Ainsley said flatly, “May I know your name?”
Wet Dorset
“What does this have to do with the case?” The woman frowned and said impatiently.
“Fine. Miss, are you saying that you stayed in Iliana’s room for a long time? I remember that you and
Iliana entered the room at 5:45 in the afternoon. Then, the waiter delivered the meal five minutes later.
Did anyone go to the bathroom after you returned to the hotel?”
The woman touched her neck and glanced at the room. The police were taking photos for evidence.

Ainsley asked again, “Are you sure?”
“I am! How can I not remember what happened in just an hour?”
“Captain, we’ve finished taking pictures.” A policeman walked out with a camera.
Ainsley looked at the person holding the camera. “Can you let me take a look at the photos? I only want to see the one taken in the bathroom. This might be helpful for solving the case.”
The captain nodded and the policeman handed Ainsley the camera. He only gave it to her when he got the room taken in the bathroom.
Ainsley looked into the toilet. There was nothing.
She looked at the woman again and said coldly, “You are lying!”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Everything I said is true. How can you say that I’m lying?”
The woman was shocked. What exactly did Ainsley see in the photo?
Ainsley didn’t beat around the bush and said seriously to the captain, “Captain, the staff of our hotel will clean up the rooms after the guests go out. The cleaning time for this room is 5:30 in the afternoon,
which is 15 minutes before Iliana and this lady came back. The cleaner will leave flower-shaped bubbles in the toilet. Since this lady is sure that she hasn’t been to the bathroom, why are the bubbles gone?”
The captain glanced at Ainsley and then at the woman. “You have to explain everything to us later.”
“Why don’t you go take a look at the toilet? It doesn’t matter even if you have to open the sewer.
Let’s see what has been washed away.” If the sewer was opened, the hotel would face the risk of being ***down.
But it was far better than being accused of murder.
In the Easton Group’s building a few miles away, Matteo had just finished an important meeting and hadn’t returned to the office when he heard the ringtone of him receiving an email.
When he opened it, it was a recording sent by Ainsley.
The content of the recording made him sit up from his seat with his eyes wide open.
After listening to the recording, he had a low mood. Someone ****in the PineMist Island vacation hotel. How shocking this news was!
If this matter were to spread in Seattle, presumably, the share price of PineMist Island would keep dropping.
