Chereads / The Mysterious Life Of Detective Gregory / Chapter 3 - The Forgotten Past

Chapter 3 - The Forgotten Past

At last it is my turn to interview the victim when she says...

"You seem familiar." I was shock and taken back "are you sure? I haven't meet you?" I asked her. Her eyes went teary and I felt an ache in my heart, "What is this feeling, this is so uncanny. Why do I feel like this? It's a familiar feeling for an unfamiliar person" says the thought in my head. "Why do I feel like this? I'm not familiar with your face but I felt this same familiar feelings 21 years ago." After those words came out of her mouth everything around me just turned black.

As I opened my eyes all I see was bright lights and white walls. Am I hospitalized? "Sir, are you okay? You passed out and we don't know what's wrong with you?" Oliver asked worriedly. "Cr*p, my head hurts." I mutter as I get up from the bed. "Come on liv, let's go back to the station" I added. "Sir are you sure you're okay?" Oliver asked, and I answered "yes, I'm fine." As we are walking down on the alley I remember what happened a while ago and I quickly think of answers to those questions. I stopped, because my head hurts again. "This is bullshit." I whispered in silence "what sir?" Oliver asked, "nothing." I answered.

When we arrived at the station I rush my way to the victim and interviewed her once again. "Where is the scar on your left eye Eric?" she asked weirdly that then send chills to my spine. "Huh? Ma'am I don't have scars on my left eye because I am not Eric. I am Detective Gregory. Now, can we go back to the details?" I asked him patiently, why is this woman saying shits about things I didn't even know?

"What were you doing in the night of the incident?" I asked her, "I was on my way to buy myself dinner." She answered attentively. "Where did you went to buy dinner?", "at the 11/11 store nearby" she answered. "What happened next?" I asked her once again. " I was the parking lot of my apartment ready to jump in my car to go to the store when I felt a hand on my waist, I looked into the person holding my waist. He grabbed a knife and point it at my neck. I was really really scared at that time, because I already know about that rapist killer roaming around in the city. But no matter how scared I am I just looked into his face and I said to myself, if I am going to survive this hell I'm going to get back at him and make sure to put him in jail. So detective, let me help I want to make that as*hole pay for what he had done." She said in a very cold but strong voice. This woman have gone through hell and this one will gonna be his last.
