Chapter 363: Unexpected assassination method

"Lorraine".

Li Changheng called Lorraine Theron over, "You go to the basement with me."

Then he instructed Andrew and Grosvenor's bodyguards to separate the two to stare at Reggie Clay, who was injured by Felanche and **** again.

This led Lorraine and Feranci, under the leadership of the housekeeper, to the basement.

While going down the stairs, he was thinking about the size of the fat cook, Abby.

Now think about it, in addition to being fat, her belly is indeed a little bulging.

If he insists on using guesswork to suspect Abby as an accomplice, or even simply wants to kill Old Gosford’s motives.

Probably in addition to the child with the old man in his stomach, the housekeeper Wilson used himself and other maids who had left the manor to instigate words.

Only then will Abby agree to become Wilson's accomplice.

A poisoned cake was sent to Old Gosford by Wilson, who pretended to be unaware, or anyone else who could enter the study.

When the old man had dinner, he was annoyed to leave before eating half of it.

When he is not full and feels angry, seeing his favorite dessert, the probability of him rejecting it will be very low.

No, it must be sent by the housekeeper.

Because there is no dessert plate on the desk in the study.

Wilson should have watched Old Gosford finish eating, and said that he would bring food to Teddy later to prevent Teddy from eating the cake, and then he could take away the plate without leaving any evidence.

However, Wilson is not without flaws.

If she goes back to the basement with her dinner plate, she will be easily touched by servants and guests' entourage.

In other words, she is likely to hide where the dinner plate is.

and many more.

Li Changheng thought again that Louisa, who had gone to call Gosford before screaming, had already messed up the manor.

Wilson took advantage of the mess to take away the dinner plate.

Li Changheng frowned and thought about it. If Wilson had a strong mental quality, he would take the dinner plate to where to wash it without showing off.

But if she is nervous and worried about being seen.

It is possible to hide the dinner plate in your own bedroom, or in other places where it is harder to find or does not arouse people's suspicion.

Restaurant, mixed with other dishes?

No, Li Changheng shook his head quickly.

There was an interval of three hours from the time I waited for the meal to the time when Silvia's second sister Louisa found out that Old Gosford was dead.

After such a long time, the servants must have cleaned up the kitchenware a long time ago and rushed to the kitchen. After their work day is over, they can rest, chat with other people, and listen to the radio.

When he came to the large restaurant in the basement, dozens of people stared at him.

Li Changheng frowned and looked at the man who was handcuffed and sitting alone on the long table.

Needless to say, he must be Defoe.

"SIR, I'm innocent, I didn't kill anyone."

"I know."

Li Changheng's words instantly made dozens of people around him exclaimed.

But what he said next made everyone even more incredible.

"If I were you, I would admit that I killed someone, because in this way, you won't be spending the rest of the year in regret."

It's a pity that Defoe couldn't listen to Li Changheng's words before he knew that his mother was the poisoner.

He even felt that he was deceiving himself.

Li Changheng's Dewen glanced around.

Except for Mrs. Clotte, who has always been wearing a chef's robe, there was a woman who looked around 60 years old.

"Butler Wilson?"

"Yes, SIR, this is Wilson Colin."

Li Changheng looked at the corners of his mouth twitching a few times. Although his expression was unclear whether he was nervous, the corner of his eyes kept looking at Wilson of Defoe.

When she was about to directly ask her why she wanted to kill Earl Gosford, she suddenly heard a voice from her left.

"Wait, Sir SIR-LEE, this has nothing to do with Wilson, she was just used by me."

"God."

All the people present looked at Mrs. Clotte who was talking incredulously.

And it didn't take long for someone to believe her.

Li Changheng frowned and looked at Condra, the butler, when he saw him walking to his side and explained in a low voice.

"SIR, Mrs. Clotte and Ms. Wilson, have been fighting secretly in this manor for decades."

But when Li Changheng saw Mrs. Clotte's expression, he knew that there was no secret fight.

There are only two poor women who care about each other, but can't make the illusion that they are rivals in order to get the owner's peace of mind.

and many more.

Mrs. Clot said that Wilson was only being used, but did not say anything about poisoning, which immediately gave Li Changheng the idea that something might be out of his control.

But Wilson said sternly, "I don't need you to be pitiful."

Then, before Mrs. Clotte could speak, she hurriedly said, "The count's death was only an accident.

I heard the servants say that the earl was angry with the guests and Mrs. Sylvia and left midway.

Let the kitchen make a red velvet cake and send it up, lest the earl get hungry at night, and we need people to get up and prepare food.

When I came to the study, I saw that the earl was drinking continuously and asked me to get sleeping pills, saying that he could not sleep. "

Li Changheng only believed this, but he immediately thought of Anmian Pills with spirits, it was almost death.

Drink the two things together, and the exciting properties of alcohol at first will counteract the medicinal properties of Sleeping Pills.

But once drinking too much, it will cause people to fall into a state of confusion and unconsciousness.

At this time, it was added with Anmianwan, and the old Gosford was already more than 60.

Not only is getting older, but obesity will definitely cause many problems.

Therefore, it is indeed possible that he stopped breathing unknowingly because of the dual effects of strong alcohol and Anmian pills.

But Li Changheng didn't believe her.

Because of the unexpected and pleasant expression of the fat chef Abby, I knew that Anmian pills were probably added to the cake in advance, and the quantity must be quite large.

It’s true that some things are counterproductive, but if you don’t mention the dose, it’s a misfortune.

Old Gosford is extremely stupid~lightnovelpub.net~, it is impossible to take several sleeping pills at once.

Even Wilson was lying just now.

The old man didn't want Sleepy Pills at all. Wilson was certain that the cake was eaten into Gosford's stomach. The old man was also dead and there was no evidence. If the prosecutor can't get evidence, she can't be prosecuted.

Then Li Changheng heard Wilson continue to say, "I reminded Lord Earl that he was even more reluctant and dare not to get the medicine, but if he threatened me not to take it with the antique gunpowder gun, he shot me."

At this time, many people were whispering, and some even glared at Li Changheng.

Li Changheng snorted coldly, looked at Wilson with a calm expression and asked, "How do you know that Anmian pills and spirits can't be taken at the same time?"

But Wilson shook his head and said, "SIR, just replacing water with spirits is not harmful.

But if you drink a lot of alcohol beforehand, take Anmian pills, and then continue to drink, that will be the most harmful.

As for how do I know? "
