"Check the video of that day to see if there were any clues. I think it must have been planned since they dared to do it in my mom's teahouse. The teacup is from my mom's teahouse, so there should be no problem with it," Richard said to Lucy.
From the time that Amy and the others entered the private room, to the end of their leaving, Lucy had checked the video carefully. But she didn't see anything strange.
According to the police, only Jacob's teacup was poisoned, and all the other teacups were fine, including the teapot. And only Jacob and Amy had touched the cup, so only Amy would poison him, as Jacob wouldn't possibly poison himself. What was more, the forensic doctor had checked that Jacob was poisoned when drinking the water.
"Richard, I have checked it many times, and replayed it in slow motion, but I didn't find anything flawed." Lucy shrugged.
They were discussing the video in their office when someone stumbled in.
"Richard, what's going on with Amy? Why did she go to prison?" Hannah walked in front, followed by Kevin.
"Slow down, slow down!" Kevin looked at Hannah anxiously.
Hannah had been abroad for rest. Her baby was just in normal position when she heard that Amy had been sent to prison, so she hurried back. The moment she got off the plane, she headed straight to Richard's office.
"Don't worry, Hannah. Take a seat. Kevin, could you get a glass of water for Hannah?" Richard said to Kevin. Richard knew that it was hard for Hannah to perceive, and Kevin and Hannah had been abroad for three months to take care of the unborn baby.
Richard didn't tell them about Amy, for fear that they would be worried about her. But now they got the news and insisted on coming back.
"What happened? Amy couldn't have killed anyone. How could someone as nice as she kill someone?" Hannah cried as she sat down.
"It's okay, we'll figure it out. It's just that we don't have any evidence to prove Amy innocent. The videos and the evidence are against Amy." Richard comforted Hannah. He hadn't shaved for days and the beards grew on the chin.
"Kevin, check the video to see what is wrong." Hannah knew she was careless and couldn't see any clues, so she had to let Kevin do it.
"Ok, baby. Don't worry. I will help. Can you go back first? Mom is waiting for us." Kevin also cared about his first child.
"Well, I'll go back in a minute. You just stay here and help them. I'll ask the driver to take me back." Hannah also knew that she had a big responsibility, as it was not easy for her to have the baby.
"Let me send you back, then I'll come back again, all right?" Kevin begged.
"If Amy did it, she knew her hand had poisons. Why didn't she wash her hands? Then she could get rid of the responsibility, but she didn't wash her hands as she didn't know it. So the person who washed the hands should be a suspect," Fabian analyzed.
"Yeah, she knew her hands had poison, so she washed her hands. She never touched Jacob's teacup, so we can't see it poison Jacob." Kevin went back to the video.
"She didn't touch Jacob's teacup. I have to think it through." Fabian frowned again.
Lucy was dazzled by what she had seen and didn't want to see any more. She was not very good at such a detailed work. If it was to fight, she could handle it.
"Take your time. I do not want to see it anymore. I feel like throwing up." Lucy found a place to lie down. She felt so tired these days, but there was no progress in the case, which made her feel very depressed.
Kevin and Fabian continued to check the video. They analyzed it bit by bit, but still, they made no progress.
"Let's take a break. Maybe when we don't want to see it, a loophole will appear and we can find evidence that will prove Amy is innocent." Kevin was tired as well. He hadn't rested since he got off the plane.
