"Why did Mr. Stone suddenly give up on resuscitation?"
"It wasn't sudden; he'd had similar thoughts for a while. He just made up his mind in the past few days."
"What made him decide?"
Mrs. Stone's eyes were red, and she choked up, "Detective, I don't want to talk about this right now.
My husband has just passed away...
I just want to quietly stay by his side and see him off."
Luke thought to himself, if I wait for you to see him off, how am I supposed to investigate?
"Mrs. Stone, I'd like to speak with you privately."
"About what? Do you think this is the appropriate setting?" Mrs. Stone questioned softly, rather displeased in her tone.
Luke said, "It's precisely because of this being the setting, that I ask you to talk privately.
Mr. Stone was involved in a major criminal case. I'd like to ask you about some details."
"He's already dead. Is there anything more important than that?"
"Even if he's dead, the case is still unresolved."
