"Tony, you are right, the fire in the gallery was indeed set off by Hus!" The next day, Sheriff Klein came to the door excitedly and said to Tangning.
Tang Ning was not surprised by this result: "Although I can understand Hus's thinking of doing this, he did it too hastily and too obviously this time, and people in the circle can see it at a glance,"
At this time, Sheriff Klein said again: "And what else do you think I found?"
"What did you find?" Tangning asked.
"I also found evidence that Huss killed Miss Donna!" Sheriff Crane replied with a proud look on his face.
"What evidence?" Tangning asked.
Sheriff Klein explained: "Witnesses spotted Huss appearing around Donna's house a few minutes before the fire, and we also found the cigarettes that Huss often smoked nearby. We need to know how much this kind of cigarettes are sold.
Very few, almost only Hus is a regular customer!”
"Oh, so that's it!" Tang Ning suddenly realized.
But then he curiously asked: "Chief, are you familiar with Miss Donna? Why do you feel that you care so much about this girl?"
"Actually, I don't even know this Miss Donna!" Before Tangning could continue to ask, Sheriff Klein said, "But this proves that the previous conclusion that Specter committed suicide is wrong. As long as we can see him
If something goes wrong, I’ll be happy!”
Tangning understood that this must be due to the grudge left behind by Chief Specter's manipulation of Klein's promotion. Klein took this opportunity to retaliate.
However, he was not interested in this kind of thing, so he changed the subject and asked: "Then has this Hus confessed his crime?"
Sheriff Klein shook his head and replied: "No, he only admitted to setting fire to the painting, but refused to admit to killing Miss Donna! But this is normal. Prisoners always avoid the easy and take the easy. Wait until I give him a lesson.
It will come naturally!"
"As far as I know, Hus has a big shot behind him, so you'd better not torture him to extract a confession. If it's really not him, then he will definitely have to take revenge on you after he gets out!" Tangning reminded.
Then he added: "And I still think it is unlikely that Hus would kill someone just for this little money. He is not short of money!"
"It's hard to say, and what if he has any other grudges against Miss Donna privately?" Sheriff Crane retorted.
Although Tang Ning wanted to refute again, she had no evidence in hand, and there was no need to argue with Chief Klein about this matter, so she changed the topic and asked, "By the way, that painting "The Flame Phoenix" was bought by someone.
Is it done?”
"Oh, not yet. It's still in Hus's gallery. But Donna's boyfriend, Mr. Quinn, is applying for the ownership of the "Flaming Phoenix" painting with us. He means that according to the contract, Donna has to pay monthly
Hus had ten paintings, and Donna had delivered them in time, but this "Flaming Phoenix" does not belong to those ten paintings, so Hus does not have the ownership of this painting!" Sheriff Klein explained.
"What?! Ten paintings in a month? Does Huss want to force people to death?" Tangning couldn't help but exclaimed.
"What's wrong? Ten paintings a month is a lot?" Sheriff Klein asked in confusion.
Tang Ning replied angrily: "It's not just a lot, it's a lot, okay? Painting is not as simple as you think, especially for a painter who is particularly responsible for his work. This is simply exhausting you to death."
The request! Only now do I understand why Miss Donna doesn’t have many high-quality products, and how can such a huge quantity guarantee high-quality products!”
Finally, he said directly: "If nothing else, just based on this request, it is not an exaggeration to say that Hus is the murderer of Miss Donna!"
Shortly after Sheriff Klein left, Deanna also rushed over excitedly: "Teacher Tangning, did you hear that the bad guy Huss was arrested!"
Tangning nodded and replied, "I know. Chief Klein came over and told me just now."
Then he lamented: "Although I don't think it was Hus who killed Miss Donna, he actually forced Miss Donna to hand in ten paintings a month.
This is no different from direct murder! But I don’t understand why Miss Donna would agree to sign such a contract?"
"Because she was short of money. To be precise, her boyfriend owed a large gambling debt, so she was forced to sign that kind of contract with Hus. She was so tired that she didn't even have time to see a doctor!
” Deanna explained.
"Is the boyfriend you are talking about Miss Donna Mr. Quinn?" Tangning asked curiously.
Deanna nodded and replied, "Yes, that's him! Teacher Tangning, do you know him?"
Tang Ning shook her head and replied, "I don't know him. Chief Klein just told me that." Then, Tang Ning told Quinn what he wanted to paint.
"This guy actually has the nerve to ask for Sister Donna's posthumous work?! No, uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com I have to scold him!" Deanna said angrily.
Tangning quickly stopped her: "It's useless if you scold him now!"
Then he changed the subject and asked: "By the way, you just said that Miss Donna is so tired that she doesn't even have time to see a doctor. So what disease does she have?"
Deanna shook her head and replied: "I don't know about this, but it seems to be serious, but she has neither money nor time to see a doctor."
Hearing this, Tangning's heart was moved, so she sent Deanna back first, then got up, got dressed, and went out to inquire around. Finally, she came to Deanna's cafe with an ugly face, and said to him sullenly: "Deanna,
I’m going to tell you something, but you have to be mentally prepared!”
"Teacher Tangning, what on earth is going on?" Deanna asked with some anxiety.
Tangning glanced around to make sure no one was there before whispering to Deanna, "I guess Miss Donna may have committed suicide!"
"What?! Sister Donna committed suicide? How is this possible!" Deanna couldn't help but exclaimed.
Tangning scolded her with a straight face: "Keep your voice down. I'm telling you this just so that this matter won't spread. If you yell like this, it will be detrimental to your sister, Donna!"
Deanna immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Teacher Tangning, I was just too shocked. Why did you say that?"
"Because I just went out to investigate and came to such a conclusion that makes me feel a little heartbroken..."
ps: In fact, the creativity of "Musician of the Old Days" is very good. The author's description of the performance of the music and the mysterious atmosphere is also very good, and the background setting is relatively complete. The problem lies in the character creation and plot arrangement. It is a pity.
Well, although the books I wrote are not very good, it does not affect my status as a reader when I comment on other books, right? And these are all my personal opinions!
