The soundproofing of the house was not very good, perhaps because the conversation inside was too loud. Before de Gaulle even knocked on the door, he heard someone talking inside.
"Someone has resigned again. Honey, I may need to readjust the ladies' shifts, which may also affect my own vacation... Come here, babies, let mom see what you have learned recently." What a happy family.
De Gaulle winked at Victor, suppressed a smile and knocked on the door.
Not long after, Ms. Merage opened the door and saw De Gaulle and Victor at a glance.
She had seen them in the manor, and she only hesitated for a moment before inviting them into the house.
De Gaulle explained the purpose of his visit, and Ms. Merage did not object to their visit at all, and even invited them to have lunch together.
Compared with Sean and Parker, it was smoothest to inquire about the situation from the head maid. De Gaulle asked her many questions during lunch.
"What kind of person is Mrs. Salsa?"
"She is very kind, beautiful and generous, and is a perfect match for Mr. Dutch." Ms. Merage said to de Gaulle and Victor while adding slices of bread dipped in sauce to the two children.
Her answer was the same as Parker's. De Gaulle nodded slightly and asked: "When did Mrs. Salsa start to have mental problems?"
"Shortly after she lost her child, hey! Poor madam, I understand her mood. If it were me, I would also go crazy." Ms. Merage had a sad look on her face.
"Do you usually arrange the schedule for the servants to take care of the madam?" Victor asked.
"No, only female servants. Mr. Dutch is a good man. He gives us one day off every week, and I will arrange it..." Meredith almost didn't think about these words in reply, and blurted it out naturally.
De Gaulle pursed his lips, suddenly stared at Meredith, and said seriously: "Do you know the medicines that Dr. Depp prescribed for Mrs. Shasa? I heard that they have side effects. Mr. Deutch didn't seem to have any reaction to them. He
Like tacit consent..."
"I'm sorry, I really don't understand this. The medicines are usually supervised by Mr. Parker. We just serve the lady to take them at the specified time." After hearing this, Meredith seemed quite surprised. He probably didn't know about the medicines.
Things.
"Which maids have served Madame Salsa?"
"Well~ everyone should have served..."
"I just heard you outside the door saying that a maid resigned. Do domestic servants in Stormhill Villa often resign?"
Victor's questions are not in the same direction as de Gaulle's. He is more concerned about the situation within the Maid Corps, while de Gaulle is concerned about other things.
So when Victor asked, de Gaulle stopped him: "Watson, don't talk yet, it will disturb my train of thought."
After saying that, he continued to look at Meredith: "Do you think Mr. Dutch really cares about Mrs. Shasa?"
"Of course, why do you ask that? Mr. Detective, please don't think blindly." Meriji showed a trace of panic, and her bald and round-bellied husband looked at his wife in surprise.
De Gaulle waved his hand and then said: "Okay! Let's change the topic. Does Mr. Sitchin know about these medicines prescribed by Dr. Depp?"
Hearing this, Meredith couldn't help but tremble.
De Gaulle's eyes immediately narrowed. Such small actions could never escape his sharp eyes.
"Sit... Mr. Sitchin? Why do you mention that... it has nothing to do with him, right?"
Doesn't it matter?
De Gaulle's mouth was grinning, and that smile made Merage feel scared.
"I see, no wonder he is so angry..." De Gaulle leaned back in his chair and chatted with Victor beside him as if joking.
Victor didn't even understand what de Gaulle meant, but Merigi's face suddenly turned dark.
She grabbed her husband and asked him to take the children to play outside when he was full.
The husband reluctantly put down the newspaper, called the two children and went out.
Everyone can see that Meredith is leaving her family behind.
"Mr. Detective, what do you mean by what you just said?"
"Oh! That's it, what about Dr. Depp's medicines? When I was communicating with Mr. Sitchin, I accidentally told him about it. As a result, the other party suddenly became very angry and said that he would go to Mr. Dutch to fight for his life!"<
/p>
Huh?
Victor was drinking water, but he almost choked. He stared at De Gaulle beside him, wondering when did this guy become so stupid.
Later he found out that de Gaulle was actually defrauding Merigi, because he had long seen that Merigi knew the inside story of the Berkeley family.
As expected, Merage became extremely impatient.
She began to complain about de Gaulle and why he said such things to Siqin.
De Gaulle began to pretend to be innocent, saying that he didn't know that Xiqin's reaction would be so big.
"Mr. Sitchin seems to care about Mrs. Shasa...more than Dach." De Gaulle made a seemingly unintentional remark intentionally or unintentionally.
In the end, Meriji blurted out directly as before: "Of course, they..."
Before he could say anything, Meriji suddenly noticed something was wrong and forced the words back into his stomach.
"The three of them have known each other since childhood and are very good... friends..."
Victor and de Gaulle were both happy to see that the head maid was so bad at lying.
There was no need to press the other party any further. De Gaulle thanked Merigi for his hospitality and said goodbye to Victor.
……
"You see! Watson, my initial hunch was correct. The reason why Siqin rejected us so much was to protect Mrs. Salsa." De Gaulle kept analyzing Victor on the road, "The head maid said that the three of them
We have known each other since childhood, so can it be inferred that Xiqin has always been in love with Shasa, but later she married his brother, which made Xiqin feel resentful?"
Victor remained silent. Although he had other ideas, the clues collected by De Gaulle all pointed to Dutch's younger brother as expected.
"Yes, the other party does have a motive to do this. He can not only avenge the loss of his lover, but also seize the opportunity to seize the family's inheritance rights... Now that Mrs. Shasa has become like that, with the disgust in Da Qi's heart, no matter what
He may share a bed with her and give birth to a new child. If Siqin is really the mastermind behind the scenes, as long as he kills his brother, he can not only take over the huge assets of Baofeng Bank, but also get the Mrs. Shasa that he has longed for. You
What do you think? Watson?"
De Gaulle's question brought Victor back to his senses, but he only replied to De Gaulle with one sentence.
"Are you thinking too much?"
De Gaulle glanced at his mouth: "Who knows? But Siqin does have a motive. This is an indisputable fact. Next, we need to investigate in this area. As for Mr. Dach... He has a lot of security around him, so there should be no problem for the time being.
We won’t reveal it for now, and we will notify Mr. Dutch after we have definite evidence, so as not to alert the enemy.”
Victor was still in contact about the matter of going to Dalien. He hoped that de Gaulle would start the investigation among the servants of the manor, so he reminded: "Mrs. Salsa's mental problem is uncontrollable. How did Siqin do it?" "It depends on whether the other party is a seer!" De Gaulle's eyes suddenly became sharp, "The invisible art is mysterious and unpredictable, and we cannot ignore any possibility."
