Chapter 1323: The Killer Who Murdered Wade!
"I’ve heard that the two big gang leaders have been having constant friction recently, and their disagreements are getting bigger and bigger. They’re bound to tear each other’s faces off sooner or later."
Nicole’s gaze was somewhat lost, with Stuart’s words echoing incessantly in her mind.
Constant friction between the two big gang leaders—
If her guess was correct, these two big gang leaders were Jose Floyd and Jude Charington.
Jude Charington had kidnapped her and wanted to eliminate Jose Floyd, yet they managed to coexist peacefully. But Jose Floyd is someone who always seeks revenge, especially when it was his hand that Jude Charington had tried to cripple, deepening the enmity to the point of creating tension between two fierce rivals in Italy.
"So—has anyone been injured?" Nicole pressed her lips, unable to suppress the question.
Stuart nodded, "Apparently, the arguments escalated quite a bit a couple of days ago, leading to a direct confrontation, and people from both sides got injured."
The word ’injured’ instantly flashed in Nicole’s mind, bringing forth the scene where Jose Floyd had stabbed a knife into his own arm for her, making her eyelashes tremble and her breath become unsteady and uncomfortable.
Injured, was he? His previous injuries hadn’t healed yet, now adding new ones...
The meal was tasteless for Nicole, thanks to Stuart’s words. After eating, she went upstairs for a nap but couldn’t fall asleep, her mind filled with Jose Floyd’s image.
And so Nicole spent the most agonizing, hesitant days of her life at Floyd Family, appearing calm and composed on the outside, while her inner turmoil was raging. She tossed and turned every night, unable to sleep, weighed down heavily by thoughts of Jose Floyd’s injuries.
At her most agonizing moment, she received a call from the police station.
Upon taking the call, Nicole grabbed her purse and phone, immediately heading downstairs. She greeted Celine Sutton, who was reading in the living room, with a heavy expression before leaving.
Police Station.
Nicole held the police report in her icy fingers, her gaze turning cold.
"Ms. Nicole, according to this inadvertently discovered file, the bullet left in your brother by the murderer back then is identical to those used in the recent conflicts between the two major Italian gang leaders," the captain at the police station explained.
"So, what do you mean?" Nicole’s body emitted a chilling aura.
The police captain hesitated for a moment before speaking heavily, "We suspect the murderer of your brother was a subordinate of one of these two major gang leaders. Based on your own inference, it seems that during the chaos, someone misfired a bullet at your brother, which means it may have been an accidental shooting during a conflict between the two groups."
"These two major gang leaders have long been entrenched in Italy, even we dare not easily move to eliminate them. Outwardly, they used to be good friends, but one side has always dreamed of single-handedly dominating the territory; hence, their hostility towards each other is a natural development of events."
"Of course, we at the police are pleased to see their clashes; the fiercer they fight, the more advantageous it is for us. Ideally, they both defeat each other, allowing us to strike all at once and eliminate them completely!"
"The ones who killed my brother were people from one of their sides..." Nicole’s grip on the police materials caused her knuckles to turn pale, her brows showing sharpness.
"Ms. Nicole, if this time their mutual destruction leads to our final strike against them, it’ll also be a form of revenge for your brother," the police captain consoled.
Nicole didn’t speak, holding the materials in her hand and turned to leave the police station, her gaze radiating with coldness.
Outside the police station, recalling the police captain’s words, thinking about what Jose Floyd had told her on the day of the incident, she bit her lip and coldly spat words full of boundless hatred: "Jude Charington—Jude Charington—you were the one who killed my brother all along!! "
