Chapter 75
After all, there were not many portrait artists. One studio was enough for daily needs.
But now, the only studio was occupied by the police chief, Alfred. Even if Milton was used to being fearless, he couldn’t really go in and chase Alfred out.
“It doesn’t matter. I can draw in your office.” Marina didn’t care too much.
What Marina said just now was really for the old man’s own good.
In the end, the old man thought that Marina was provoking him.
Was it so difficult to be a good person these days?
“Wouldn’t that be too unfair to you?” When Milton heard Marina would go to their office to draw a portrait, his expression immediately became complicated.
“If I say it’s unfair, can you find a second studio?” Marina raised her eyebrows.
Milton was stunned for a moment.
Milton quite didn’t have the ability.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Chaos. When this case is solved, I’ll definitely thank you properly!” Milton said sincerely.
“We’ll talk about this later. Help me prepare the tools first,” Marina said as she prepared to return to Milton’s office which smelled worse than a doghouse.
“Wait!” At this time, Gordon suddenly shouted.
“Are you calling me?” Marina looked around and pointed at herself.
“Then who do you think I’m calling” Gordon gritted his teeth in anger.
“Who knows? Maybe you’re calling your companion? Like that one.” Marina raised her chin and looked at a police dog not
far away.
Gordon was speechless.
Gordon’s hands, which were hanging by his side, tightened. His thin lips were already twisted into a straight line.
However, in the end, Gordon suppressed his temper and said to Marina.
“Mr. Derek is a very excellent predecessor in the portrait world. He might have solved more cases than you have read. If you don’t want to embarrass yourself later, it’s not too late to leave now!”
“You stopped me just to tell me this?” Marina dug her ears.

“I’m not joking with you. Don’t be so hostile to me every time. I’m doing this for your own good!” Gordon said firmly.
“For my own good?” At that, Marina sneered.
For her own good, Gordon could even drug her and send her to a stranger’s bed?
Gordon was such a hypocrite who was full of fake benevolence and morality.
“Mr. Charles, in the future, you should tell the security guard in your police station to be more duteous. Things like this that only know how to bark shouldn’t be allowed here. They should bring him to the training ground for police dogs.” Marina snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Milton looked at Marina and then at Gordon.
In the end, Milton touched his nose and did not say anything. Milton walked after Marina then.

Milton naturally knew Gordon. Gordon was the successor of the Campbell family, the number one family in Solemwood.
The victim of this case was an elder who was close to the Campbell family.
Therefore, Gordon especially cared about this case.
This was not the first time Milton had seen Gordon.
Actually, Milton had a good impression of Gordon.
Although Gordon came from a wealthy family, he was not as unrestrained and unruly as those sons from wealthy families. Instead, Gordon was especially calm.
Moreover, Gordon was very humble. Even someone like Milton, who had always been picky, could not find anything wrong with Gordon.
Milton just didn’t know why Marina disliked Gordon so much.
Could it be that there was some kind of conflict between the two of them?
Milton was curious.
However, there were still very important things to do next. Naturally, Milton did not dare to verify this with Marina.
Milton only asked his subordinates to prepare tools for the portrait. Then, Milton opened all the windows in the office and tried his best to change the stale air in the office.
“Chaos, do you need anything else? If you do, I’ll get someone to prepare it,” Milton asked.
Marina glanced at the drawing board and pencils in front of her and nodded.
“That’s enough. You guys go out first. Don’t let anyone disturb me before I come out.”
“Okay!” Milton quickly left the office with his subordinates.

Although they were outside, there were cameras in the office. Milton and the others could observe Marina through the
cameras.
However, the angle of the camera could not show Marina’s drawing board.
They could only see Marina sitting motionlessly on the chair.
“Huh? Mr. Charles, why is the expert you found in a daze all the time? Is she asleep?”
“It’s been half an hour. I heard that Mr. Derek has already drawn a rough outline of the murderer,” a team member asked worriedly,
After all, if Milton lost to these people, these subordinates would definitely be punished too.
“What’s the hurry? The experts‘ actions are not something ordinary people like us can understand. Just wait patiently.” Milton stared at Marina on the surveillance video all the time.
Finally, after 40 minutes, Marina finally made a move.
Marina picked up a pencil and quickly drew on the paper.
Her eyes were resolute, and she didn’t stop slightly.

Chapter 75
Almost every stroke landed where Marina had envisioned.
“Did you see that? She has moved!” Milton quickly said.
“But is she really drawing? I went to the studio just now. When Mr. Derek drew, he often stopped for a while and even modified it. But why is her drawing speed so quick? It’s not sketching. Could she be drawing randomly?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? If you don’t know how to speak properly, shut up!” Milton glared at his subordinate.
However, when Milton looked at Marina, there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
Chaos was really famous, but that was only because of her achievements as a hacker.
Milton had never heard of Chaos knowing how to draw a portrait.
Could it be that Milton was really going to lose this time?
Milton bit his lip.
As they spoke, Marina stopped in the office.
Then, Marina took out her phone and played with it.
“It’s over. We are finished. She’s playing with her phone. It’s obvious that she was drawing randomly just now.” The team members began to complain.
Milton did not stop them this time, but his gaze never left Marina.
At this moment.
Karson had already completed the task of drawing the portrait.
Under the police chief, Alfred’s lead, Karson and the others walked toward them.
“Where’s that young lady?” Karson proudly glanced at Milton and the others who were gathered at the door.
Milton looked at Karson leisurely and did not reply.
Karson glanced at the surveillance video and suddenly smiled.
“Is she copying from her phone? It’s a good thing for young people to be confident, but overconfidence is conceit.”
However, as soon as Karson finished speaking, Marina, who was sitting in front of the window and playing with her phone, suddenly stood up.
Immediately after, Marina opened the tightly shut office door from the inside.
