Next to the tool rack piled with wood, there was a thin shadow hunched over, his shoulders twitching.
Those inaudible murmurs were made by him, not some monster.
However, Victor still did not give up his vigilance. He touched the oil lamp next to him, broke the glass cover and cast a fire spell out of thin air to ignite the lamp oil inside.
The whole room suddenly became brighter.
Victor saw Dallion squatting there with his back to him.
The carpenter had no clothes on his upper body and only a pair of dirty underwear on his lower body. His hair was disheveled and his mental state was extremely poor.
"Woo...wu wu...toy...son..."
"son……"
Victor's expression suddenly darkened, and he could see clearly that this man's heart had collapsed.
"Mr. Dallion..."
He tried calling the other party, but received no response. The carpenter still huddled in the corner, trembling.
The originally happy family ended up like this, and Victor felt deeply sad about this.
Before finding the body of his child, Dallion may still have the motivation to survive, oh no, maybe it is a "delusion".
If his son is really just missing, no matter whether he can be found or not, at least there is a glimmer of hope in this man's heart.
But after he asked Victor to find the child's body, this delusion was completely shattered.
Misfortune is misfortune, no matter who it befalls, it is misfortune. However, the Berkeley family has huge wealth and will not be defeated for a while. Dalian is not so lucky.
Glancing around, Victor found that most of the furniture in his home had been moved away, most likely to be used as collateral for the loan sharks he owed.
The whole world is destroying the carpenter's hope of survival. Even if he is not crazy, he will probably commit suicide.
With a slight sigh, Victor raised his head and said calmly to Dallion.
"Mr. Dallion, maybe I know who the murderer of your child is."
Originally, he thought that such words would make Dallion react, but he still did not change his curled-up posture, as if everything in the outside world was unimportant and he was only living in the fantasy in his mind.
Victor had no expression on his face, stretched out his hand to pull off the puppet wrapped around his waist, and walked towards Dallion.
"I know you are sad now, but do you really not want to avenge your family? Look back, Dallion."
After saying that, his hand touched Dallion's back. The other person shuddered and turned his head unconsciously.
Victor saw a shriveled and frightened face. Darien was like a standard lunatic. After seeing Victor, he let out a terrifying scream and then knocked the puppet out of his hand.
.
Victor turned around to pick up the doll, and Dallion shrank back into the corner and let out an ugly cry.
Just after picking up the puppet, Victor suddenly discovered that there was a lot of messy paper pressed under the wooden board over there. From the corner of the paper, it could be seen that it looked like a carpentry design drawing.
Victor had a keen eye. He opened the wooden board and swept out the scraps of paper with his feet. He picked up the oil lamp with only the base left to illuminate and clearly saw the pattern on the paper.
There are some design drawings of closets and chairs, as well as relatively large drawings such as waterwheels. Of course, the most noteworthy one is the sketch of a puppet toy.
Victor singled it out and put it under the light to examine it carefully. He felt that it was somewhat similar to the doll in his hand.
But because it is a sketch, it is still in the initial design concept, so it is not certain just to compare it like this.
Therefore, Victor put down the drawings and went to several other rooms to search, and sure enough he found the "master copies" of the dolls he saw when he came here last time.
The white-hands who collect loan sharks have no use for these things, so they will most likely throw them where they are. Victor's guess is right.
Now that Dallion is unconscious and unable to communicate, let's compare these mother copies!
Sure enough, after Victor's confirmation, these initially handmade toys gradually transformed into the appearance of the dolls in his hands, becoming more and more realistic, and his skills became more and more sophisticated. It was basically certain that this puppet was made by Dallion.
The same doll appeared in the incident between Dallion and the Berkeley family, and that Gina Lanster must be the nanny who was also hired by Dallion.
"Huh..." Victor stood up and smoothed things over in his mind.
He didn't agree with Pippen's guess about Gina's motives. The other party definitely didn't plan all this to find a good family for her child. Otherwise, why would she target the Dallian family? The carpenter's family is not rich, they can only live and feed their children.
above the line.
After putting out the oil lamp, Victor gave the carpenter one last look with complicated emotions.
He knew that there was nothing he could do to help the other party, and even after he left, the carpenter would most likely not survive for a few days.
He has no relatives, no lover, and no children, so no one will care about his life or death.
And all Victor can do is this promise.
"There are always people...who have to pay the price for playing with their lives."
After walking out of the shop, Victor lowered the brim of his hat and walked with a stern expression on the street where the sun was rising.
…
On the other side, De Gaulle came to the police station and wanted to find his friend, Chief John.
However, the other party had already cooperated with the large forces to search Silver Road and Baker Street and did not appear at the police station.
De Gaulle was a little disappointed, but he still found several police officers responsible for Tom's case and told them his investigation results.
"Yes, that's it. The maid named Gina Lanster was the murderer. Mr. Tom discovered this and found out all the way to Moon Home, and then he was poisoned by the other party."
Although de Gaulle was not entrusted by the police, many people were convinced of the clues he provided because he had served in the police station in the past and was now a detective.
Therefore, the remaining manpower of the police station organized three or four young police officers and decided to take de Gaulle with them to search for the whereabouts of Gina Lanster.
Because it collided with the hunt for the Cambino family, there were relatively few manpower available.
But fortunately, a case was filed, and Gina Lanster is now a wanted criminal.
However, accidents always come very suddenly.
Just when de Gaulle and the police team had prepared everything and were about to go out, an extremely shocking news suddenly came from the window of the hall.
"Someone surrenders!"
The fat police officer at the window shouted loudly and called many police officers, and de Gaulle also came out with him.
When he saw the person standing in front of the window, he was stunned.
"Are you surrendering yourself, ma'am?"
A police officer walked up and reached out with his right hand to the shelf to remove a white rope.
"Yes...sorry gentlemen, I am the one who killed Tom Ross...my name is Gina Langster!"
Hearing this, the policemen who had just been discussing with De Gaulle immediately exclaimed, and De Gaulle also looked at the young woman in front of him in surprise.
Long black hair, delicate appearance, young skin, calm demeanor...
"Well...we meet again, assistant lady..." De Gaulle covered up his shock and said coldly.
