I dunno, don’t count her out. Knife missed her heart and lungs, and probably diaphram, or she wouldn’t be talking this clearly. Nicking the aorta or vena cava, or what I was suspecting, running right through the liver, could cause her to be bleeding out internally but give her enough time to make this speech. Or she could have just passed out from the shock. The solar plexus is a pretty important bundle of nerves. I say not enough clues yet to know which way PC is taking this part of the story.
I can’t help but think about the trouble Chad would be in if he were a cop in today’s world, though. He just dropped a stationary unarmed suspect who was not reaching for a weapon or threatening anyone, any more. If he did care about Missy, that would just give him a personal motive and would make his situation worse.
Well, Missy escaped the hangman’s noose the hard way…
She always was Stuck up.
