Chapter 158 'The Fright of the Island'

"You, you mean that Grace and her children are actually the ghosts, and that the family they always thought were ghosts is actually the real owner of this house?" Catherine couldn't help but exclaimed.

That's right, what Tangning told Catherine was "The Island". Speaking of which, it felt really amazing to talk about a movie starring her in front of "Nicole Kidman". What was even more amazing was that the two of them were in this kind of relationship.

No clothes on, telling ghost stories while lying on the bed feels more interesting

"Tony, why don't you write such a wonderful story?" Catherine asked curiously.

"Because it's not suitable for publishing in newspapers!" Tang Ning replied calmly.

"Why isn't it suitable?" Catherine asked puzzledly.

Tangning nodded and replied, "Well, it's just too short. The most exciting part of this story is the reversal of the ending. The disadvantage is that the foreshadowing is too bland. As a serial, the foreshadowing will not attract readers, but as a short story, it is fine.

But I never write short stories."

"That's true!" Catherine nodded in agreement, and then an idea flashed in her mind: "But it can be made into a drama, it will definitely be suitable!"

"What a great idea. Tomorrow I'll go and ask if there's any theater on Broadway that's willing to buy it!"

After chatting for a while, Catherine suddenly said with emotion: "Tony, it would be great if you could be like now, holding me and telling me stories every day!"

Tangning knew what Catherine was thinking, but she definitely couldn't let her get what she wanted, so she smiled bitterly and said, "It's impossible for me to make up stories like this every day. Otherwise, I guarantee that when I come up with a good story, it will be like

Now hold you like this and tell you, okay?"

Catherine naturally knew that it was impossible for Tangning to divorce Heidi, so the two could only be lovers at best. However, hearing this explanation was a step forward, so she nodded faintly and replied: "Okay!"

Tangning knew that it was best to do something else to distract Catherine at this time. It happened that her physical strength had almost recovered, so she leaned on her and smiled evilly: "My story can't be in vain.

Let’s get paid!”

As soon as the two returned to New Orleans, Deanna ran over and said to Tangning anxiously, "Teacher, you are finally back!"

"What happened? Are you so anxious?" Tang Ning asked casually.

"Teacher, you must help Morian this time!" Deanna pleaded.

"What's wrong with Morian?" Tangning asked.

Deanna replied in a deep voice: "He was killed!"

"What?! Morian is dead? How did he die?" Tangning asked curiously.

Deanna explained: "The police said that he committed suicide after poisoning, but Morian never knew how to kill, and it was even less likely that he would commit suicide because of guilt, so someone must be harming him. Teacher Tangning, you must help.

Him!"

"Poison to kill? Who did he kill?" Tang Ning asked.

"A New York businessman named Bray!" Deanna replied.

"Why did Morian want to kill him?" Tangning asked again.

"This person was definitely not killed by Morian. I think the person who killed him and the person who killed Morian must be the same person! He first forced Morian to poison Bray's spaghetti, and then killed him to silence him.

!" Deanna analyzed.

"Is there any evidence?" Tangning asked a crucial question.

Deanna shook her head without hesitation and replied: "No!" Then she added: "That's why I need your help, Teacher Tangning!"

"Okay, who is the police officer in charge of this case?" Tangning was about to find an excuse to refuse.

Unexpectedly, the answer I heard was: "That's the Sheriff Klein you are most familiar with!"

"Oh, him, then I can ask him!" Tangning nodded helplessly and agreed.

When I found Chief Klein and asked, he frowned and said, "Tony, to be honest, I'm scratching my head about this case too!"

"Do you also think there are problems with this case?" Tang Ning asked excitedly.

"Of course there are problems. First of all, I also know Morian. I don't believe that he would kill anyone, let alone commit suicide out of fear of crime! Then yesterday, another murder case was discovered. The deceased was also a customer who went to Louis' restaurant to eat at that time.

Her name is Felissa. But the strange thing is that the medical examiner determined that she had been dead for more than ten days, but she was still present when the poisoning case occurred at Louis' restaurant the day before yesterday!" Sheriff Klein explained.

"A woman who has been dead for more than ten days actually appeared the day before yesterday? Are you sure it is this Felissa who died?" Tangning asked in confusion.

Sheriff Klein shook his head and replied: "To be honest, I'm not sure because her face has been smashed, but both the clothes and the ID on her body prove that she is Felissa."

While the two were talking, a police officer suddenly ran over and reported: "Sergeant, someone saw the dumping process of Felissa's body the night before yesterday!"

"Oh? Where is he? Have you seen the murderer?" Chief Klein asked excitedly.

The police officer hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "I guess I saw it, but the person who dumped the body can no longer be found!"

"Can't find it? What's going on?" Chief Klein asked with a frown.

So the police officer explained in detail: "This is the case. When we were investigating near the body dumping site just now, a Mr. Osborne gave us clues, saying that the night before yesterday he saw Mrs. Newman nearby who seemed to be dumping the body.

, so we went to Newman’s house to verify, but he and his wife were not at home.

Moreover, according to the landlord, the Newmans were very strange. Although they had rented a house from him for three years, Mrs. Newman only showed up on Wednesdays every week, and he had never seen Mr. Newman. He was also displeased with this.

I asked Mrs. Newman, but she said that Mr. Newman was very busy at work, so he always came in the evening and left in the morning.

In addition, yesterday was Wednesday, but Mrs. Newman did not come, so he didn’t know where to find Mrs. Newman!”

"This family is really weird!" Sheriff Klein murmured to himself, then stood up and said, "Let's go, take me to his house to have a look!"

At this time, Tangning asked from the side: "Can you let me go and have a look?"

Sheriff Klein hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Okay, but you can't leak the facts of the case before solving the case, let alone write it into a novel!"

"Don't worry, I promise not to tell anyone!" Tang Ning raised her hand and promised.

PS: I was surprised to hear that there is a magical book called "The Rebirth of the Great Director in the Entertainment Industry", but I have little talent and limited knowledge, and I have been unable to find it. Can any great person help me point the way?
