BXBX NOVEL Chapter 214 - Mysteries
RESTAURANT
Mrs Lee and Jae-Hyun couldn\'t make sense of the evidence before them. Mrs Lee kept looking at the picture, she could see the fear in the woman\'s eyes as she protected her stomach with her hand while she ran.
\'Was someone after her baby? If yes, who and why?\'
Who would chase a pregnant woman in an airport?
And why was she in country A, when she has seen in country Y?
"I\'m sorry sir but I still don\'t know why she was at the Airport. I\'ve tried accessing through the airport\'s catalog for that year but there was no entry booked under her name except she used another name to leave the country."
"Did you check see if any other camera\'s captured her running or her pursuers?" Mrs Lee asked.
Shaking his head the private investigator replied, "I\'m sorry but there was none. I checked the camera footage for that day but I couldn\'t find anything. This one was actually captured by the Northeast camera outside of the airport, and for who could be pursuing her there was nothing."
"Then what else did you find?" Mrs Lee desperately asked. She was getting impatient with her slow the case was going. This was the first progress they have made in over a year, this should be the sixth private investigator she had hired for the job. She knew she should be appreciative of this result but she couldn\'t help the anxiety brooding in her heart. She had just three months and she had so much to do. There were still so many things left undone, and she didn\'t want to leave without attending to everything.
Placing another copy of the certificate and one of the photographs, "I found a few more things." He said making Mrs Lee\'s lit up and Jae-Hyun\'s ear perk up.
"Really? Tell us." Mrs Lee urged.
Pointing towards the dates on the photograph and birth certificate he said, "If you look at the dates on these, you\'ll find out the days are so close. A day interval. She must have delivered the very next day, which meant that who ever was chasing must have taken her from the airport and took her baby after she delivered."
Mrs Lee furrowed her brows when she noticed he was indeed correct. The date on the photograph was the twelveth of May, while the birth certificate was the thirteenth of May.
"I was able to locate the hospital where she delivered but unfortunately it is no longer functioning" He told them.
"Not functioning? What do you mean?" Mrs Lee asked frowningly.
"There was a fire incident at the hospital at the same time, which strangely according to records happened on the same day of her delivery, so everything was burned to the ground."
"Everything?" Jae-Hyun asked while the man nodded.
"Then how did you get the certificate?" Jae-Hyun inquired. If the hospital has been destroyed like he said, how then was he able to get a birth certificate which had the woman\'s name. It could be forged.
The investigator immediately pulled out a hard disk from his bag and placed it on the table, "I stumbled upon this among the ruins of the hospital, it was restored and surprisingly enough the birth certificate was the only detail in it." The man explained.
"Are you trying to say–"
"Yes, the structure is still standing for the twenty years and no one has used it, apparently the owner of the hospital doesn\'t intend to sell the land."
"And who owns the hospital?" Jae-Hyun asked.
"Chairman Kim"
That answer got Mrs Lee\'s attention, as her eyes widened to be fullest.
"You mean this was Sena\'s hospital?" Mrs Lee asked.
"I believe that is the Madam of the Kim household."
"Yes." Jae-Hyun replied.
"Then I think we\'re talking about same person."
Mrs Lee picked up the certificate and it was then she saw the name of the hospital. It was indeed the very one. That was the hospital Sena had lost her baby, she was so traumatized by it that she refused to step her foot into the building ever again, especially when she lost all hope of ever having her own child again.
She remembered hearing about a fire incident that had destroyed the hospital back then, and that was the same period Sena and her husband had left the country, because Sena couldn\'t live her anymore.
"But this hospital is here in country C. So how come she was in three different country." This heightened Mrs Lee\'s confusion.
The lady was seen at pregnant at Country A, delivered a child in country C but was found in country Y? Why?
Mrs Lee and Jae-Hyun looked at the private investigator for answers.
"Ma these are the answers we have to unravel. There are so many mysteries surrounding this case and it wouldn\'t be easy to unravel. This investigation isn\'t as simple as we thought it would be. There are so many factors amidst. First it was the pictures, the unavailability of other footage of her in the airport means someone had gotten rid of it. There are no travel details for her but she somehow left the country and delivered here, and the very hospital was involved in a fire incident.
Ma I must say there some foul plays and from all indication I can say someone is making deliberate effort to prevent us from finding who this woman is, and where her child might be. And I think this is why you\'ve not been able to get any information about the child. And if I\'m correct, they might know you\'re looking for the child and the mother might be in danger and you both might also be in danger."
\'Danger?\' Mrs Lee said in her mind.
She looked at the private investigator and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Yes ma."
She turned to Jae-Hyun "Jae-Hyun what do we do?" She asked. She didn\'t mind being in danger, she was going to die anyway, but there was still Jae-Hyun, the woman and the private investigator.
And whoever this enemy was, he could be very dangerous.
