The Truth Surfaces Five Years After My Death Chapter 11
Christopher was ultimately sentenced to death for multiple charges. He immediately broke down and started trembling violently. He clutched his chest, his face deathly pale, as he slid down the defendant's chair. The court officers immediately moved in to secure the scene as medical personnel rushed forward. They worked to resuscitate him for three hours at the hospital. Despite their efforts, he suffered massive cardiac bleeding and was pronounced dead on the operating table. On the same day, the court approved Oliver's death sentence and authorized the execution order. Before his execution, Gabriella went to Gakoli's maximum-security prison to see him one last time.In the visitation room, Oliver looked as nonchalant as ever. Gabriella sat opposite him without speaking, staring at him in silence. The smile faded from his face as he locked eyes with her. "Even in death, you'll never make up for what you did to Victor."Once visitation hours were over, Oliver was taken away by

I drifted beside Gabriella, watching her from behind. For the first time, I realized she seemed to have aged overnight.The next morning, every seat in the largest press room at the Gakoli Police Department was taken.Gabriella didn't start with her usual official opening remarks. She swept her gaze across the room in silence. "Today, on behalf of the Gakoli Police Department, I'm here to tell everyone the truth about the alleged defection of Victor Patton five years ago."Five years ago, Victor Patton, an officer of the Customs Narcotics Unit, was assigned by the department to go undercover inside Oliver Rypien's drug trafficking and smuggling cartel in a classified takedown operation. "During the mission, he repeatedly risked his life to pass intel to the police force, providing critical leads that proved crucial in solving many cases."While he was undercover, someone infiltrated the police force, and he repeatedly leaked operational plans to the drug cartel, resulting in th

The light at the entryway was on. Hearing the door open, Christopher immediately went to greet Gabriella."Gabriella, you're home." He instinctively reached out, took the coat she had taken off, and hung it on the coat rack nearby. "Is the work assignment all done? You haven't been home in two days. You must be exhausted." Gabriella changed her shoes, watching him. "It's fine."Christopher followed Gabriella into the living room. He got her a glass of water and casually sat on the couch next to her. "I watched the news again today. Netizens are still talking about what Oliver said, and they're speaking up for Victor. "Gabriella, what do you think Victor's up to? It's been five years since he ran away, yet he's still using a death-row inmate to stir up trouble. Hasn't he hurt enough people? "I'm pretty sure Victor's the one behind Oliver's confession. He's trying to overturn the case and clear his name."Gabriella looked up at Christopher and said calmly, "You seem to under

At that moment, a veteran detective sitting in the corner spoke up. "Chief Campbell, there's one more person we haven't looked into.""Who?""Christopher Wright."The atmosphere in the conference room turned tense. Five years of memories instantly flashed through Gabriella's mind. To her, Christopher had always been gentle, thoughtful, and understanding. But whenever Gabriella began to have doubts about that case, he would always bring up the warehouse explosion at the right time. He would remind her of herself lying in the rubble, covered in blood, and any lingering doubt would be suppressed once again."Look into him. Leave no stone unturned. I want to know every single thing about Christopher—from the moment he was born until now. I want everything about him—his records, his whereabouts, and his connections!"The special task force moved at an alarming speed. In less than three days, every detail about Christopher was presented to Gabriella. Christopher wasn't who he clai

Gabriella started mumbling, her voice growing softer. Finally, with red eyes, she couldn't hold herself back and broke down in tears.I drifted to her side, watching her. It felt like I was in a dream.Five years ago, I watched Gabriella rise to the top of the Gakoli Police Department. I watched her condemn me in front of the media and saw how gentle and caring she was with Christopher.Now, she finally knew the truth. I had never once betrayed the police force, my beliefs, or my duty as an officer.Under the forensic team's expedited testing, the results came back in a few hours. The fragmented remains recovered from Pier 17 were a perfect match with multiple biological samples of mine in the police records. After a thorough verification from various sources, it was confirmed that the remains belonged to me. The team also ran a forensic skeletal analysis and carbonization tests, further confirming that the time of death matched the time I was said to have defected from the pol

Gabriella was nearly 40 years old. She had risen from an elite cadet at the police academy to the highest-ranked officer in the Gakoli Police Department. She had overcome many obstacles, yet she had never felt anything like this before. At that moment, the person on the other end was still yelling into the phone. "Chief Campbell? Can you hear me?"Hearing no response from Gabriella, he repeated, "The demolition has been called off! All the explosive devices have been safely disarmed!""What did you just say? Then what was that loud explosion all about?""It was the structural engineer, Belinda Locke. She led a team and used a non-destructive breaching technique to open Pier 17's maintenance cavity."The commander continued, "She and the team entered the site two hours in advance. All of them signed a life-and-death waiver. "They took over the work zone under the pretense of an emergency structural safety inspection. We had just finished dismantling the explosive devices when th

"Oh, Gabriella. I can't believe someone like you was able to arrest me." Oliver stopped smiling and fixed his gaze on Gabriella through the thick bulletproof glass."All these years, you must've really hated Victor, huh?"Gabriella didn't answer, but her hands clenched into fists at her sides.

Christopher sounded aggrieved. "Gabriella, I'm scared. Just thinking about it makes me shiver."Daniel died a horrible death, and so many of our comrades are gone too. It's all because of Victor. And now Oliver, who's about to be executed, is trying to clear his name? How many more people is he goi

The head of the narcotics unit handed Gabriella an application form filled with signatures. "Chief Campbell, here's the application form to conduct drilling at Pier 17 of the Joy Bridge. Everyone in the narcotics unit has signed it."We have to get to the bottom of this, regardless of whether Oli

"Gabriella, I'm here to talk about Victor Patton."As soon as my name rang out in the courtroom, I jolted and instinctively looked at Gabriella. I saw her stiffen, a murderous glint flashing in her eyes.Oliver snorted, seeming pleased with her reaction. He leaned back in his chair as if unbothere
