Enchanted By His Charm

Just in this way, she saw Lilith nodding lightly. Lenard stood up excitedly and hugged her up, making circles happily.

Lilith was not so excited. Irish guessed that maybe Jay and Lilith wouldn't come back from the old memories they had spent together. Everyone had his own pursuits and pride.

Lenard put the ring onto Lilith's ring finger. The light of the ring shone. Seeing this, Irish felt a little sad and dreary.

As she raised her eyes, she saw Joseph who was with a complicated expression. She moved her eyes away and just saw a lonely figure leaving quietly.

It was Jay.

*

Irish left before the end of Cassie's marriage. On the one hand, Roy was always with Cassie, and he even intervened in their conversations. On the other hand, the next day, Irish needed to take a business trip. Although she was unwilling, it was a doomed trip, so she could only follow the order.

As it was darker, the party began. Irish left.

As she left, Joseph saw her figure while drinking and chatting, and then he called Daisy.

Irish didn't drive her car, so when she was out, she just stood beside the road and waited for an empty taxi. There was no empty car, so she just took a walk so that she could get the wine aroma dispersed.

A car just stopped in front of her.

Irish stopped. She figured out that it was Joseph's car. Her heart beat quickly. Soon the window was down, and it was Daisy.

Daisy went off and opened the door, "Irish. It's too late to take a taxi. Just get in."

Irish licked her lips, "No need."

"Irish, you know I need to finish my task. Please do not make me in a dilemma." Daisy said, smiling.

Joseph's figure occurred to Irish's mind. She felt nervous, so she just nodded and got in.

Daisy started the car and drove towards the direction of Midtown Manhattan.

Looking at the backward tree shadows out of the window, Irish leaned on the seat, on which there was Joseph's smell. It was just like a dream for her. She thought of Lilith again, so she just sighed and said, "Daisy, please get me to the Brooklyn Police Station."

Daisy glanced at her in the mirror and nodded lightly, then she moved the steering wheel and turned around.

It was quieter as it got darker.

As Irish knocked at the door, Jay was analyzing a case by checking files. There was a deep gully between her eyebrows. As he heard the knocking, he saw from the window that it was Irish, so he just stood up and opened the door for her.

Irish closed the door as she came in. She didn't say anything and just sat across from him.

She would not interrupt his work if she didn't know that Jay also went to the wedding. He was unfamiliar with Roy, so he did not need to go there. He went there, which proved that he only wanted to see someone. Obviously, Jay should have seen Lenard proposing. His figure was so lonely that Irish got worried.

"What's wrong? It seems that you are looking at a rare animal." Jay looked a little tired, but he still played a joke and made coffee for her.

Irish sighed, "You give up, Lilith, right?"

Jay also made a cup of coffee for himself, sitting on the chair unhappily. After a while, he said, "Love is not always correct. We are in two different worlds."

"Do you give up?" She asked repeatedly.

Jay put down the cup and looked up at her, "Yes. I gave up. If you want to persuade me, just let it go. Something will never come back to the original."

Irish took a sip and said, "In fact, I am not entitled to persuade you. You are not alone."

Jay just looked at her.

Irish didn't say more, and just played with the glass, murmuring, "Maybe we haven't lost our feelings, but ourselves."

Jay frowned. His hands began to tremble.

"If Lilith really gets married to Lenard, are you happy with that?" She asked.

Jay was certain, "No. I still love her."

"How about Carmen?"

"I never loved her. I am sure about it."

Irish finally realized that the biggest pain was that lovers could never get together.

The phone on the table rang, disrupting the cold atmosphere. Jay picked up the phone and just listened to it. He got stricter. After putting the phone down, he stood up and wore the cap.

Irish knew that there must have been something serious, so she just asked, "What's wrong?"

"A strange suicide case occurred in the Garden Community."

When Irish heard it, she said immediately, "I want to go with you."

****

The Policeman went there quickly. The legal, medical expert and legal administrative officers were busy with the case. Irish followed Jay into the warning line and went upstairs with the status of a psychologist invited by the Police Station.

The dead were found in a one-bedroom-one-parlor and found by the landlord. According to the landlord, the dead had lived there two years ago. The rental fee was given once a season. He came there to collect the rental fee for the next season.

However, nobody opened the door for him, so he just opened the door with his prepared key and found out that the tenant was dead.

Jay ordered someone to make a record for the landlord and surrounding neighbors while he entered the bedroom with a mask and gloves on. The dead leaned against the wall with blood on his whole body.

"Are you sure that he committed suicide?" He crouched down and asked the legal, medical expert.

He doubted it because the dead had been positioned with his hands behind his back. It was obvious that someone had killed him.

The legal, medical expert kept silent, "I am also doubting. His motive to commit suicide and way of committing suicide is so strange, but after checking just now, I have found out that there are no other injuries except for the fatal cut on the neck, and there is no trace of struggle."

Irish followed Jay. She didn't see the dead on the floor but just looked around. The light on her head was yellow and red, light and vague. There were many papers on the wall on which there were patterns. The photo of the dead was hung on the wall, looking clean.

"Jay." She stared at one of the patterns and called Jay lightly.

Jay walked forward.

She pointed out, "Are you familiar with the pattern?"

Jay focused on it. It was a pattern of totems portrayed with a light pencil line. It looked like a pattern of a butterfly.

The pattern appeared again!

Jay couldn't forget this pattern. The criminal in the dismemberment case also left this pattern on the wall. He tried his best to find it out at that time, but there was no clue. That case and the pattern were all stopped for investigation.
