Chapter 1406 The Unquiet Xisha
In the manor, Koboqin stayed alone in the room, with a trace of panic in his furrowed brows: "Why did she know about that incident twenty-seven years ago? ? That thing is so secret , it’s impossible for her to know. But... in this morning’s conversation, she mentioned the secret from twenty-seven years ago. Is that what she was talking about? "
Cobo? The more Qin thought about it, the more he felt that Alice was hinting at his hidden That thing in the bottom of my heart, Leng Buding took a breath of cold air: "I have been feeling uneasy recently, and there is a vague premonition in my heart. I always feel that the old thing back then is not over. Now I have this ominous premonition. It’s finally here, I didn’t think about it To mention it from a girl... Hey! Is there someone else behind her back? How much does she know about what happened back then?"
The worry in her heart became stronger little by little. Kobochin was already sweating. At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the butler Iwowai shouted: "Master, the carriages, horses and accompanying personnel have been arranged. Mr. Binks from the Public Security Bureau is also waiting at the door. You can go to Huangsha at any time." Poe."
"I know, I'll go right away." Copochin wiped the sweat from his head and said to himself: "No, I have to prepare in advance, just in case it happens. Just like I thought.”
After leaving the room, he came to the garden, where the accompanying guards, a dozen bodyguards and several detectives who were invited to handle the case were waiting. The butler Ivo said: "Mr. Binks is at the door of the manor. Master, please get in the car."
"Yes."
Kopchin was about to get in the car when Reiko saw him off. He said: "Are you really going? When Mayor Khalid was killed, it was enough for us to go to his house to comfort his family. Is there any need to take risks and go to a desolate place like Huangshapo? What if we meet an assassin? "
Binx came in at this time and happened to hear what Lake said, and said: "Yes, sir, let's not talk about Cali. I don’t know who killed Mayor De. If something happened to you, the whole Xisha City would collapse. Sir, you came all the way to invite so many people. Bodyguards and guards have also invited so many experts in investigating cases. It is enough to leave the investigation of Huangsha Road to me and these people. It is safer for you to stay in the manor. When I catch the murderer, I will definitely Leave him to you to deal with."
Kopochin said: "Khalid and I are not only relatives, but also have some blood relationship, he is still me. My best friend in life, the scale and achievements of Xisha City today were all created by him and me. Now how can I ignore such a big thing happening to him? And I can feel that this matter is aimed at me. Come on, the murderer must be the serial murderer. He knows the relationship between Mayor Khalid and me, so he is attacking him.”
"If that's the case, then Sir, you can't go even more. What if this is a trap set by the murderer?"
"This..." Cobochin hesitated.
At this time, a servant in the manor ran over and shouted: "Master, something happened to the master."
Ivo looked displeased, stopped the running servant and shouted : "Can you speak? What do you mean something happened to the master? The master is clearly here fine."
"Yes, yes." The servant quickly changed his words and said: "Something happened to the small building in the backyard."
Upon hearing this, Koboqin hurriedly asked: "What happened in the study?"
The servants said: "This morning, the servants found the two three-headed dogs guarding the courtyard listless. They thought it was because of their illness. If he was sick, he went to the veterinarian outside the manor to see him. Unexpectedly, the veterinarian just checked him. Several extremely fine silver needles were found on the three-headed dog. The veterinarian said that there were signs of strong anesthetics on the needles."
Kopchin's brows suddenly jumped: "You mean someone sneaked into the small building in the backyard. Have you ever been in?"
Leike's eyes wandered and glanced at Cobochin's expression.
"This...I..." Of course a servant did not dare to make such a judgment and could only say: "Master, butler, you'd better go and see for yourself. The veterinarian is just outside the yard."
Outside the backyard, the two three-headed dogs had been healed and regained their energy and vitality. The veterinarian held five tiny silver needles in the handkerchief and said: "Mr. Sir, these five tiny needles were taken out of them by me. I checked them and found that there were ingredients suspected of atropine and hyoscyamine remaining on the needles. It should be Datura flowers were used, but their medicinal properties are much stronger than Datura's anesthetic properties. Maybe it's because It was mixed with other narcotics. As for the specific narcotics used, I have to take the needle back and check it carefully, but there are not many drugs left on the needle, so I can't guarantee that I can check it clearly. "It's him at Lurkav Manor. A regular customer, he often comes to the manor to take care of the pet monsters raised by Kobochin. He also knew that a lot of things had happened in the manor recently, so he told Cobochin everything he needed to say.
Kopchin nodded: "Excuse me, go ahead."
After the veterinarian left with the medicine box, several people handling the case and Binks became confused.
“It’s really weird. I was killing people before, but now I’m just messing around with people.” Jennifer felt strange.
Binx asked: "Could it be that the murderer sneaked into the manor to prepare for the assassination, but was discovered by the three-headed dog guarding the backyard, and he used an anesthesia needle to put the three-headed dog down?"
"But until last night, no one has been killed in the manor." Ivo said.
Epsilin asked: "Where is this backyard?"
Butler Ivo replied: "The small building in the backyard is the master's study room for handling matters." "Oh? Why do you want it? Build the office here?”
Ivo replied: “That’s right, there is a study room in the main house, but There are too many people in the building, and there are too many ladies, so the master cannot feel at ease when handling affairs. You also know that the reason why Xisha City became Xisha City is inseparable from my master. Many things in this city, large and small, require my master. In order to handle things here with peace of mind, the owner ordered people to build this two-story building in the backyard. ”
"So that's it. Does anyone usually come in or out of here?"
Ivo shook his head: "No, the master does not allow servants to come in or out of this small building, because there are often many important official documents in it. Even when it was being cleaned, the owner would personally come and look at it.”
Kopchin took a few people into the small building and checked it, and found that nothing was missing, but there were signs that it had been disturbed. .
After coming out, Lucas said: "It seems that someone put down these two three-headed dogs just to sneak in here to find something, but the thing was not found. As for whether this person is the murderer, We can’t draw a conclusion yet.”
Butler Ivo said: “There have been thieves in the manor before. Although such a large manor is strictly guarded, there are always a few thieves who want to visit. A common theft case.”
Nissim shook his head: "This is definitely not an ordinary attempted theft. Generally, thieves only steal property, but nothing was stolen in the small building, and this small building is just a hundred meters behind the main house. Arrive, the location is The center of the manor. Would an ordinary thief sneak into the center of the manor to commit a crime? What's more, there have been a series of murders in the manor recently. Not only did the police dispatch a large number of people to guard the manor, but Sir Lurkaf Also invited me With so many people involved in the investigation, how can ordinary thieves dare to take such big risks? "
"Could it be the little girl last night, the girl who came to see the owner this morning?" Ivo said. : "At that time, Lord Binks came to tell the owner about the murder of Mayor Khalid, and she also followed us. I think she was very interested in the affairs of the manor, which is very suspicious."
Speaking of Alice, Kobochin also looked at Nissim.
Nissim denied it with certainty: "It's impossible."
Ivo was confused: "Why are you so sure, sir?"
Next to him, Kobochin said: "Mr. Nisim, if you have any opinion, just say it directly."
"My opinion." Nisim smiled faintly: "Because I think this The thing was most likely done by someone inside the manor, at least related to someone in the manor, so it couldn’t have been done by the little girl named Alice. "
"It was done by someone inside the manor?" It is said that many people were surprised.
Nissim said: "Let's not talk about how this thief came here avoiding everyone's eyes and ears. There are many mechanisms and magic traps in the manor. If it is someone who doesn't know anything about the manor, , how could he enter this small building without any movement? Even if it was done by an outsider, there must be someone from the manor as an internal agent. Of course, the criminal may also be a master, but if this person is really a top master. If so, then he must not be an ordinary thief. Or, because such people generally would not do such a thing for a little money. Think about it, the girl named Alice is also very skilled, but even if she disappears, she is still captured by the manor. The guards found it easily, so I still think it is more likely that someone in the manor committed the crime."
Ivo was surprised: "But there are many servants and guards in the manor. Hundreds of people, who could these people be? ”
Nissim did not answer this question because he could not answer it yet.
Binx said: "There are more and more things happening now. First it was a serial murder case, then the murder of the mayor, and now it is a theft case. Why has Xisha City become so unquiet all of a sudden? "
Lucas said: "The situation is complicated, but things have to be dealt with one by one. I think we should start with the murder of Mayor Khalid."< br>
“This matter is the most "That's the only thing that matters." Binks said, "Let's rush to Huangsha Road now. Sir, you should stay in the manor. I can't afford the risk if you go out." If anything is found over there, I will send someone back immediately to explain it to you."
Kopochin could only sigh: "Well, now I don't know which place is really safe. .”
