Chapter 28 Epilogue

Two months passed. Mr. Jerry Wren's connection with the case ceased as soon as he stepped out of Hatter House, and not a word has been heard from Hamlet Heights, nor from Inspector Sam or Inspector Bupno. Contact Ryan again. The press criticized the police, and the allegations about Lane's connection with the case disappeared due to lack of factual evidence.After two months passed, no further inquiries were made, and the crime did not develop as Inspector Sam had predicted. An official investigation will be conducted internally. Although the inspector has been scarred by this mess, fortunately the threat of relegation and demotion has been ignored.So in the end, the police also had to withdraw their troops from the Heite mansion—the press commented sarcastically, saying that the clever eye is as tall as a foot... The Heite family, which has been under the control of the old lady's patriarch for many years and lived together Jing, soon after Jackie Height was buried, fell apart and went their separate ways...

Jill Hatter is missing, leaving behind Gurley, her new fiancé Bigelow, and a whole bunch of panicked speculations about men who fall for her skirt... With deplorable determination, Martha packed up the last bit of self-esteem and left Conrad, and moved into a low-cost apartment with the young Billy, waiting for the divorce agreement... After being tracked and monitored by several colleagues, Edgar Peary was finally released. He disappeared for a while, but soon appeared suddenly as Barbara Height's husband. The turmoil soon calmed down, because the two of them left the United States and fled to the United Kingdom...

No one stayed in the old residence, and the Heite Mansion was sealed up for sale. Captain Trewitt walks in his garden all day long, growing old and decaying. Dr. Miriam continues his quiet and tight-lipped medical career. This case became an unsolved case, and another unsolved case was added to the police record—an item in the annual statistics of Twister City. One incident in particular stands out, as it provided New Eyes with its last full report on the so-called Heite case.Before Barbara Hitt and Edgar Peary were married, Louisa Kabian died in her nap, and the medical examiner agreed with Dr. Miriam that she died of heart failure.
