Chapter 11
At STARLIGHT-TECH....
"May I ask who are you guys?" The guy asks them, showing off his flashing smile.
The two immediately know this infamous act of men....
The two of them immediately turned a 90 degree on their facial expression, and took out their police badges to show the guy that they are not playing off with him.
"Good Afternoon sir, we are from the Ridgemount Town Police branch. Today we came here to know more about Sally O'dillar, our prime victim. We believe that she is brutally murdered. We are questioning those that are in contact with her, and want to know her better so that we can capture the murderer to justice." Rachel told that guy.
Then it is followed by a rather neat silence....
The guy pauses his lips and speaks out again.
"Well... Sally is a very nice soul to everybody, and I can't express my sorrowness now when you guys inform me about her sudden death. All I know is that two weeks ago on the 26th of last month, which is a Friday. She did come to work as usual and nothing unusual happened...
Well it is also her last day with the company, so everybody is celebrating her last day of work... More like throwing a party for her."
The two ladies look at each other with a frown, before Susan asks another question.
"Wait, what is the reason for her resigning?" She asked. Rather question about that matter.
"I guess it is due to her boyfriend's connection to the company." The man told them.
"Mind explaining?" Sue ask him.
"Ohhh... As you can see, she has a boyfriend, and her boyfriend is the CEO of a food and beverage company.... You guys know about the famous Prime-tine making company?" He explains then asks them a question.
"Ya... Aren't they one of the biggest companies that is in-charge of Ridgemount food export, Imports, process and so on?" Rachel said and asked, to clarify on it more.
"Yes, It is."
"Hmm.... Isn't the CEO of the company named Joshua Martin...." Susan chip in.
"Yes. It Is him. Sally's boyfriend."
Both nodded in acknowledgement, whilst also silently surprised to learn about the new discovery of their victims personal life.
"Ok. Going back to that. Sally and Joshua hit off quite fast after meeting up a few times at Joshua's club. Where he opened up to serve customers and to widen his business network with various shareholders too....
Well I must say, Sally is really a very pretty and attractive young lady. She caught eyes of many males around this area and outside of town too, when we sometimes went to large business parties"
He pauses and takes a sip of his water. Then continue.
"In one of our company parties, It is held at Joshua's club. It is called Prime-Tine Chill & co Bar. The reason is that, our head Manager is a really good friend of Joshua, as he share with us that they use to be classmates way back in their high school years, and now they are still the best of buddies despite them being in different companies and social position...."
"So this is how Sally and Joshua meet up" Susan asks the guy opposite them.
He responded back with a slide nod. Indicating a yes.
".... This is how their romance blossoms." He ended.
"Is there anything else you want to tell us?"
"Yes! ahm.... as you can see I follow her social media accounts and we are colleagues, so it is like we can see others posts and so on.... Her story about her going on a business trip is not true..." The guy added on.
This time it made both ladies raise their eyebrows in curiosity.
"Mind explaining?" Rachel asks.
"Our companies usually will have business trips if the business meeting took place in another country and is usually at either middle of the year or end of the year.... As you can see, it is only May. Is usually from June to August or November to the next year of January...."
"Probably your boss let her go on a business trip earlier to finish up a final meeting before she leaves the company" Susan suggested, sharing her thoughts to the both.
"No, no, no can't be. I have been working in this company for five years. I know the company rules and sequences by heart.... If they were to give a business trip. It will be from various departments going together, it will not be a one man trip." He said, explaining to them.
"Ok... I see"
"When did you see the post?" Rachel asks him. She starts having a suspicious feeling towards this case.
"To be more pacific, like the time, date or day. You saw her last post..." She explained further.
".... I think it is on the night of the... 28th. Yes, yes. I remember that night. I look at it and it kind of does not make sense. I clearly remember it, because after her last post, we were talking about it in our friends circle.
"Some assume that is her boyfriend bringing her to vacation..." He finishes.
"Anything else?"
"No. Mdm"
"Then if you have anything just call the ridgemount police post. Thanks for your cooperation today, nice to meet you too" Susan ended.
Both parties stand up, exchange handshakes.
Then the ladies leave the building...
