Storytelling:

Trauma, Emergency Personnel, Succumb, Passed Away, Consecutive, Divert, Reclaim

I know an American drama called “the killer”, it’s said this story that a girl experienced trauma in a park and passed away before the emergency personnel came to the site.  However her father didn’t succumb to the big power after this tragedy.  Her father executive consecutive plans try to dig out the fact.  Because he wants to reclaim the right of lives.  After suffered a lot of extreme bad situations he didn’t divert from the original obligation.

May’s Edit:

I watched an American drama called “the killer”, which told a story that a girl experienced a trauma in a park, and passed away before the emergency personnel came to the site.  However her father didn’t succumb to the big power after this tragedy.  He arrange and executive consecutive plans for trying to dig out the fact.  Because he wanted to reclaim the right of lives.  After he suffered a lot of extreme bad situations, he didn’t divert from the original obligation.

Edit Together:

I watched an American drama called “The Killer”, which told a story about a girl that experienced a trauma in a park, and passed away before the emergency personnel arrived at the crime scene.  However, her father didn’t succumb to big political power after this tragedy.  He arranged and executed consecutive plans for trying to dig out the facts.  Because he wanted to reclaim her right to justice.  After he suffered a lot of extremely bad situations, he didn’t divert from his original obligation.
