Chapter 102 De Gaulle’s Plan

 I have to say that de Gaulle was a very capable person.

He couldn't wait to call Victor and visited Storm Villa again.

It was just after afternoon tea and Mr. Dutch was not at home. His servants led the two into the manor without any obstruction.

"The master has asked me to make it easier for you two." A waiter said to de Gaulle.

De Gaulle didn't waste any time and directly pointed out that he wanted to meet the general management of the villa.

The waiter didn't ask any questions and asked them to wait in the courtyard. Ten minutes later, he led a man about fifty years old over.

"You want to see me? Did Mr. Dutch arrange it?"

The man is the manager of the manor. In this family, except for Berkeley, he has the final say, so his conversation is full of condescension.

"Ah~! You are Mr. Parker, right?" De Gaulle stood up and shook hands with the other party.

Parker was full of suspicion and stretched out his hand as if to deal with it.

De Gaulle continued: "You must also know that Mr. Dutch entrusted us to investigate his wife's problem."

"That's right."

"Then I would like to ask, how are the drugs that Mrs. Shasa usually takes to treat mental symptoms arranged?"

As he spoke, de Gaulle's eyes kept swaying and he looked repeatedly at the manager in front of him. He didn't know what kind of scene he was starting to play out in his mind.

Mr. Parker did not know de Gaulle's purpose, and his words were exactly the same as the maid's answer.

The maid regularly goes to Dr. Depp's clinic to purchase medicines, and then gives them to Parker. After Parker checks them, the maid takes them to Mrs. Shasa.

My wife is full of rejection of taking medicine, but she is not interested in the medicines after Parker's examination.

"It seems you know Madam very well?" De Gaulle's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Mrs. Shasa is a good person. We servants like her very much. We wish her well..."

Parker spoke with worry in his eyes.

In fact, Shasa's biological child died in February this year. Victor originally thought it happened a few years ago, but he didn't expect it was less than a year.

"Since it is an investigation, of course I am willing to cooperate with you two. However, the manor is busy with affairs. If you have other questions, you can ask other deacons or servants."

Parker seemed to be in a hurry, or perhaps unwilling to chat more with de Gaulle.

"Do you know the effectiveness of those medicines?" De Gaulle did not let him go easily and continued to ask.

The manager shook his head with a cold expression: "I don't know, but since Dr. Depp was personally invited by the master, the medicine he prescribed must be the most effective."

De Gaulle looked back at the silent Victor, then turned back to Parker and said: "Chlorpromazine, haloperidol, sulpiride... Do you really not know the side effects of these drugs?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Victor saw the steward's eyes swaying, as if he was deliberately avoiding de Gaulle's gaze, and finally showed a disguised expression of surprise.

"What? Are you saying that these medicines will harm Mrs. Shasa's body? But..." Parker turned away and glanced at the trash can beside the park road, "But since this is the medicine prescribed by Dr. Depp,

The master trusts him again, which may be the best way."

After he finished speaking, he did not continue chatting with de Gaulle, nodded and left the yard.

Looking at his back, de Gaulle turned to look at Victor: "Watson, what do you think?"

"Mr. Parker, there are some facts that he didn't tell us." Victor crossed his legs and held his cheek with one hand, elegant and unruly.

"Your sitting posture is too flamboyant, making it seem like I am your assistant..." De Gaulle looked at him, with a hint of scorn in his words.

Victor shrugged: "Maybe it's the aura!"

De Gaulle chuckled and brought the topic back: "Okay, this Mr. Parker is obviously lying. As the general manager of the villa, Mr. Dutch has given him full authority to handle matters such as the wife's medication and care. How could he not recognize the medicine?"
"I guess he may be covering up something..."

"The heroes see the same thing, but judging from his reaction, it should be difficult for us to find out the truth about him."

De Gaulle reached out to touch his pipe, but suddenly remembered that when he stepped into the villa, the pipe was taken away by the waiter.

He said to Victor with some annoyance: "We need to get some good luck elsewhere, so, my dear Watson, can you lend me some money?"

Borrowing money again?

Victor raised one eyebrow, with confusion written all over his face.

What kind of capitalist exploitation is this? Why do I always give you money when I work here?

After understanding Victor's expression, De Gaulle's smile was still as confident as ever: "Don't worry, once this commission is completed, I will include it in your remuneration."

Painting cake!

Victor always felt that this guy must have believed the cake he drew, so he could deceive others without blushing or heartbeat.

"5 farka! Just 5 farka! Help me, Vladimir, you will definitely be my lucky star."

It’s only right to take advantage of someone else!

Victor complained in his heart.

Although 5 farka is not much for Victor, this guy always reaches out to ask for money from him, which will make people irritated over time.

"Sign an IOU, Mr. Detective. Also, you have to tell me what you want the money for?" Victor looked at the other person curiously.

"I can sign an IOU, but I'm not sure what the money will be used for, because I'm not sure yet whether my next plan will work. If it comes to nothing, I have to save some face for myself.

?"

After de Gaulle finished speaking, he quickly took out his notes and pen from his pocket and immediately drafted an IOU.

In short, de Gaulle was not afraid of owing money, but he did not want to be found to have failed in his reasoning.

After signing, Victor handed five banknotes from his pocket to de Gaulle. The next second, the guy ran out and disappeared. It was not until half an hour later that he came back in despair.
However, there was another man who accompanied him back.

The man had blond hair and brown eyes, with anger written all over his face, as if he was preparing for a big explosion.

"From now on, outsiders are not welcome in Storm Villa, don't let me see you again!"

This person was Siqin, Dachi’s younger brother. Dachi was not at the villa today, but this guy was. De Gaulle ran into someone unknown where he ran and bumped into this guy. He was immediately caught by him and came to find Victor.

We must drive them both away.

"Mr. Siqin, it's Dutch..."

"Don't mention him to me. Berkeley will not let him have the final say alone, never! Get out of here now, or I will call the security immediately."

Faced with this man's arrogance, De Gaulle was helpless. He could only smile, and then dragged Victor away from Storm Villas.

"Where did you go just now?" Victor asked curiously.

De Gaulle sighed and told Victor how he communicated with the servants in the corridor and how he met Siqin.

"You know what! Xiqin seemed to have been notified by someone and ran straight to find us."

Victor was slightly startled after hearing this, and returned suspiciously: "You mean... Parker notified Siqin that we are here?"

"The only possibility is that the guy knows that Dutch's younger brother has always been opposed to the commission."

The meaning of de Gaulle's words seemed to be a little more suspicious of Parker.

Victor sneered and said jokingly: "So your plan failed?"

"No, no, no! Although Siqin's appearance has disrupted our rhythm, my plan has already begun to be implemented, you see!" De Gaulle showed his empty hands, "The money has been spent, next

Let’s just wait for the results!”
