Feng Bujue's threats... felt very subtle, after all, what he said didn't sound like something that could be actually implemented.
To put it metaphorically, this is like a curse word that we often hear in our daily lives - "I x your uncle"; it is said so... but no one will ever actually put it into action.
However, if Brother Jue said these words, the situation would be different...
Although John and Feng Bujue had only known each other for a few hours, the latter's various behaviors during this period, as well as his aggressive and hard-to-contain temperament, forced John to consider that the other party would make some "nonsense-sounding things"
The risk of threats becoming reality.
"Okay... please go on." After thinking for a few seconds, John curled his lips and said to Zuo Yan in a cold tone.
Zuo Yan was not polite to him, continued the topic just now, and began to paraphrase what Vidocq said in his mind: "If nothing else happens...everyone here, except Feng..." He paused for a moment when he said this.
Suddenly, because Vidocq called Brother Jue "Feng Bujue" in the spiritual dialogue, but the person speaking now was Zuo Yan, "...except for Brother Jue..." Zuo Yan changed his words in time, "
Others should be relatively familiar with that case. After all, two of the three of you are the parties involved, and the remaining Sheriff Daost, as the law enforcement officer on the island, is undoubtedly the person who initially handled the case.
.”
"So...why do we have to bring up the old things again?" John muttered again when he heard this.
"But!" Zuo Yan also changed the topic at the right time and gave the corresponding reason, "The so-called 'understanding' is only a relative term. The same mathematical problem of 'one plus one' is in the eyes of primary school students.
It has a completely different meaning from the eyes of mathematicians... In the same way, I believe... this case also has a completely different look in the minds of you, Sam, and Dost.
"And what I have to do now... is to restore the original appearance of the case as completely as possible, so that everyone present can see the same view, and then we can discuss the topic of the murder case in front of us more smoothly."
When he heard this sentence, Feng Bujue was very happy in his heart, because he thought... According to this rhythm of development, I will probably use another narrative technique to summarize the previous chapters 5 to 7, that is,
The content of "The Mystery of the Will (Part 1) (Middle) (Part 2)" was retold through Zuo Yan's mouth, forcing it to fit into three or more chapters.
Unfortunately, he was wrong.
Here, I will use a simple section to skip this already described plot to show my rigorous attitude towards the work and my extremely professional professional ethics.
——So, in front of the four of them, Zuo Yan recounted from beginning to end the case concerning the inheritance that Vidocq had told him before. During the process of his presentation, John, Sam and Daost naturally
They all interrupted Zuo Yan more than once due to reasons such as surprise, guilty conscience, and sudden realization; of course, in the end, he finished telling the entire case.
If no one interrupted Zuo Yan, he might have been able to finish saying this in ten minutes, but in reality, he spoke for a full twenty-five minutes.
Fortunately, for the audience who are watching this novel, it doesn't matter whether it lasts ten minutes or twenty-five minutes. From your point of view, it's just a hundred words.
Feng Bujue was undoubtedly very dissatisfied with this situation. Although he could last six to seven thousand words, the content of three entire chapters was compressed into only about 3% of the space. This cast a doubt on his prospects of clearing the level.
There was a layer of shadow, but...there was nothing he could do.
"The above is my opinion on the will case." Twenty-five minutes later, Zuo Yan used this sentence to declare that the previous reasoning had come to an end.
"That's just your 'view'." John added emphasis on those two key words, "In the final analysis... these are all speculations. First, there is no ready evidence, and second, there is no means of confirmation; and the highest
Compared with the court’s judgment, it is a complete joke.”
"Hmph..." After hearing this, Sam sneered and continued, "Of course you hope these are all 'jokes'."
"You two... let's stop it." At this time, Feng Bujue intervened again, stopping the two from further arguing, "Whether it's a joke or the truth... from a practical point of view, it doesn't matter anymore.
Classmate Zuo Yan must also know very well..." He paused for a second and looked at Zuo Yan, "...due to the long interval, the relevant evidence related to that case, including some witness... have been ruthlessly destroyed.
Lost in time; even if there are some parts that have been preserved, they have long lost their timeliness.”
"Well, Brother Jue is right." Zuo Yan nodded, "What we are going to talk about next does not need to be supported by facts like the reasoning I just made, but... use that as a logical basis.
It’s still possible to explain some issues…”
"You mean the motive, right?" The person who took over the conversation and asked this question was actually Daost.
It seems that the police chief still has a lot of skills. Although he was a little drunk during the half hour of listening to Zuo Yan's narration, he still responded relatively quickly to relevant situations in criminal investigation.
Zuo Yan also looked at Daost with a slightly surprised look, and then responded: "Exactly." He said, turning his attention to Sam again, "Although I can also say whether the victim suffered
The words "Sam's instigation to kill John" serve as the opening remarks of this conversation, but in that case... your understanding of his motives may be biased."
"What?" Now, Daost was shocked. Even if he could keep up with the other party's thinking in terms of theory, in terms of actual cases...he really couldn't learn the out-of-the-box thinking of a famous detective, "
You said Sam is..."
"Don't you think this is ridiculous, Mr. Zuo Yan?" Sam said to Zuo Yan in a cold tone before the Sheriff could finish his words, "If you want to rob John of the inheritance that should belong to me,
'As support for your reasoning... the so-called 'my motive', then I have to ask... why did I not commit a crime in the past few years? What reason do I have to wait until so many years later?
It’s been so long, do you want to do something like this again?”
"It's very simple." Zuo Yan said, "Because your motive is not 'John took away the inheritance that should belong to you'. In fact, you said this yourself at this moment just to induce us... so that
Doesn't it hide your true motives?"
His tone sounded confident, and it was obvious that Vidocq had already given him a very convincing answer in his mind, that is...
