Chapter 359: After all, it's for profit

"That means that Raymond pulled you in. He was pulled in by the Countess Trenson again?"

After Li Changheng frowned, he deliberately said, "You and Raymond's wife may not know this, but what about Silvia?"

But he didn't expect Anthony to frown when he heard that he took the initiative to put aside his wife's responsibilities.

It seems that he does hate his wife for being unfaithful to him, and then probably thinks that the more people involved, the safer he will be.

He replied without hesitation, "Of course Sylvia knew about it, because Countess Trenson wanted to determine whether Earl Gosford would stop her alimony, and she could only confirm from Sylvia."

Li Changheng agreed with this. After all, the old woman would not ask Gosford directly about this kind of thing.

The first thought of a normal person is definitely to try things first and if there is a chance of redemption.

So once you directly ask Old Gosford, there is probably no chance for him to withdraw his thoughts.

Then, maybe she hadn't thought of killing Gosford at first, but after asking Silvia, perhaps she was stimulated by what Silvia said, and she began to conspire against the earl.

But the two women wanted to kill an earl. They couldn't help but don't talk about it. It would be safer to do it yourself without looking for someone who would wait for Gosford to die.

It is not that simple to bring an adult male into the manor.

At least Silvia couldn't recruit people directly in order to get rid of suspicion.

She doesn't even have this right.

Because recruiting is not the job of a housekeeper, it will definitely investigate the identity and birth of the newcomer.

And normally, the butler will only recruit people who are familiar or who live near the manor.

And there must be many families living near the manor, and families that have served the Gosford family for generations.

Then you can only be the guest's entourage, the driver and the like, to enter the manor in an open manner.

However, what Li Changheng didn't understand at this time was, if Gosford died, how did Raymond get a lot of money?

"Does Silvia have a leg with that Mickey?"

Anthony pointed at Li Changheng incredulously, and then his wrist was tapped by the cane in Li Changheng's hand.

He almost yelled out in pain in an instant.

And Li Changheng didn’t need Anthony to talk any more, and then asked, “Did Mickey help you find that guy named Defoe?”

At this time, Anthony's face was full of horrified expressions.

The young man in front of him is so smart, and he is frighteningly smart.

But for Li Changheng, this is actually very easy to think of.

Anthony and Raymond are at best people with some assets.

How can such ordinary people with little money and no power find people who have left the orphanage for many years?

Only a rich and connected person like Mickey can easily find Defoe.

It is even possible to send someone to pretend to be a gangster when he finds someone, humiliating him, even his living brother and sister who is dying of illness.

Arouse his dissatisfaction with society, unfairness to God, and other negative thoughts, so that he can put all his hatred on his father.

This kind of routine is simply trivial to Li Changheng.

Since Silvia and Mickey have a leg, and Gosford intends to move the family to London.

Does that mean that when Gosford died, Isabel Gosford, who was only 18 years old, would definitely not stay in the sad place of the manor.

She wants to sell the manor and Mickey will take over.

If she didn't sell it, she went to London again.

If Silvia tells her that all the income of the manor, after leaving the labor and alimony, is given to Isabel, then the manor is likely to be taken care of by Silvia.

In this way, the widow Silvia can go with Mickey upright, and even marry him is no problem.

Mickey doesn't need to worry about exposing the farm, and destroys the underground planting farm. He only needs to dispose of the special tobacco first.

After three or five months, everything calms down, then work can continue.

They even pulled Silvia directly into the gang, and after Raymond and Anthony collected the money, it was not so easy for them to want to get off the ship.

If the two of them are ignorant, or the mud can't help the waste on the wall, it won't be difficult to kill them both.

Even if they die, no one may even care.

Li Changheng patted Anthony on the shoulder, then smiled and said to Tedell, "Sheriff, do you have any evidence to show that Anthony, Raymond, Countess Silvia, and Countess Trenson were involved in the murder?"

Tedell looked back at his men and saw him frowning as well.

In the end, I could only shake my head helplessly, "Neither I nor Constable Elder made a transcript. Moreover, the interrogation without a lawyer and Mr. Anthony's signature, I can't sue the people you mentioned."

Anthony's face was overjoyed, but Li Changheng nodded with a smile, letting Anthony leave the billiard room.

Looking at Tedder and his subordinate Elder said, "Very well, then you will be given the credit for capturing Defoe.

Moreover, this is a case of murder following the intention of seeing money, right? "

Not only did Tadel not hesitate this time, he was anxious to smile and said, "Yes, it's only described in the report between Elder and I."

Constable Elder nodded as soon as he saw Teddle and Li Changheng both looking at him.

The threatening words that Li Changheng said to Anthony just now are valid for Anthony, and they are also valid for him, the little police officer.

Moreover, he didn't even look at Tedell, a guy with a backstage, so he didn't dare to participate in it. Unless he wanted to die, it would be better to shut up.

As for what is just and unjust.

When Elder thought of Earl Gosford throwing several illegitimate children in the orphanage like trash, he felt that people like him should have gone to **** long ago.

Now that the murderer has been found, let's talk about other things when you are old enough to see God.

Watching Teddle and Elder leave, Li Changheng not only didn't feel happy at all, but worried that this matter might not end so easily.

Because an unchangeable fact is.

Gosford was indeed poisoned~lightnovelpub.net~ So who poisoned him?

Why did you choose to poison him tonight?

Those who are looking forward to the death of Gosford, in addition to Anthony and other four people.

Who else not only wants him to die, but also has enough hatred to really do it?

Closed eyes carefully recalled who was in the parlor before.

It seemed that Silvia, who had assigned Ivor to play and sing, had left the living room except for the sound of Ivor's singing.

Then he took the Countess of Trenson, Isabel, Mabel, Perelin, and Yit into the living room with a smile.

The other guests, including Condra the butler and a footman who assisted Condra, stayed in the parlour all the time.

Even if someone goes to the toilet, it doesn't take long, because there is a special toilet next to the living room.

That is to say, was the man who poisoned the manor and servant of the manor, the man in the kitchen, or the guest's entourage?
