Dazzling lightning flashed out from the dark clouds, ruthlessly tearing the dark night sky apart, and the downpour lashed the earth hard.
The majestic villa built on the mountain is hidden among the forest and vegetation. In this shocking late night, it looks like a giant beast hiding in the storm.
The lone carriage drove on the mountain road, the sound of hooves beating rapidly.
The driver, who was soaked all over, sped up to drive the vehicle away, eager to escape from the bad weather as soon as possible.
The branches on both sides are swaying crazily, like evil ghosts crossing the road, which is frightening.
Those flying leaves were like blades, carrying the pouring rain and splashing on the horsemen.
"Aqiu~~!"
A sneeze was quickly drowned in the rainy night.
When the carriage reached the intersection of Storm Villa, it was stopped by three security guards standing guard in the rain.
"Stop! The front is private property, no trespassing is allowed!"
The driver knocked on the rear compartment, the side window opened, and half of Victor's head popped out from there holding an umbrella.
"I am Vladimir Judler Watson, a detective assistant at the Smart Eye Detective Agency. I have something important to see Mr. Dutch."
As Victor spoke, he looked behind the road and found lights flickering everywhere, as if the entire villa had run out.
"Please come back tonight! We are closing the mountain." The security guard stood in the heavy rain with an extremely serious face. The thin black umbrella could not protect his clothes from getting wet.
"Closing the mountain?"
Victor frowned.
"Did something happen?"
The security guard did not give a clear reply, only saying: "If there is an emergency, Renekton Daily will report it. Please forgive me for not revealing too much information to outsiders without authorization, so please come back!"
More and more security guards came and the road up the mountain was completely blocked.
Stormhill was not far away, but Victor couldn't get there at all.
He came to see Dutch tonight, actually with the intention of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even be able to see him face to face.
"Why……"
Sighing, Victor asked the coachman to change the route back, and the coachman immediately turned the horse's head happily.
…
That night, Victor always felt that something was about to happen, and he tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep.
It’s not just Abigail’s side, he feels that the abnormal situation in Storm Mountain Villa tonight is also weird...
"There are still a few days until Miss Writer's execution day. I have to think of a way during this time!"
Victor covered his head and suffered from insomnia until dawn. As soon as he woke up, he hurriedly put on hair dye and went out without even washing his face.
He rushed to the Smart Eye Detective Agency, only to find that the door was locked and de Gaulle was not inside. It was obvious that he had stayed away all night last night.
"Strange...that guy would leave me a message even if he didn't wait for me..."
Victor frowned even higher, and the bad feeling became stronger.
Just as he was about to go downstairs, he suddenly bumped into someone.
The other party almost fell downstairs, but luckily Victor quickly caught him by the hand.
"Mr. Parker? Why are you here?" After Victor let go of his hand, he discovered that the person in front of him turned out to be the manager of Stormwind Villa.
As soon as Parker saw Victor, his anxious face immediately came up: "Mr. Watson! Have you seen Mr. de Gaulle?"
Seeing that the other party's face was extremely ugly, Victor was extremely suspicious: "He is not in the office. Do you have anything to do with him? I can tell him on your behalf."
"This..." Parker grabbed his hair, obviously very anxious, "No... I don't have time, I'd better go back! Mr. Watson! If Xia Keluo comes back, you must take him with you.
Come to Storm Villa!"
Victor sensed something was wrong, grabbed Parker, and asked him what happened.
Parker told everything that happened last night in just a few words: "Master Dutch...he slipped and fell to his death!"
Upon hearing this, Victor was stunned on the spot.
"Daqi...Daqi is dead?? He fell to death? Are you sure it was an accident?"
"Not sure!" Parker covered his forehead and seemed to find it difficult to explain, "We are just not sure whether Mr. Dutch died accidentally. Only Mr. Sitchin witnessed his brother's behavior before his death... He confirmed that Mr. Dutch was dead.
He fell from the balcony and there was no one else around him, but Mr. Sitchin firmly believed that this was not an accident but murder!"
I see!
Victor finally understood why the mountain was closed when he went to Stormwind Villa last night, and all the passages along the Villa were blocked, and then he searched various places where the murderer might be hidden.
This was probably Siqin's order. After Dachi died, he became the only one to talk things over.
"Wait a minute, please explain in more detail. Mr. Sitchin didn't see the murderer, so why are you sure it was a murder and not an accident?" Victor looked closely into Parker's eyes.
Parker gritted his teeth and had no idea why.
"I don't know. Mr. Sitchin didn't say what he saw. He only said that there was no one else around Mr. Dutch before he died..."
Victor squeezed his short staff and felt that things were a little complicated.
He proposed to go to the villa to meet Siqin now and ask about the situation in detail, but then, Parker told him an even more shocking thing.
"Siqin...Mr. Siqin, he has been unconscious since last night...I wonder what happened?"
Parker immediately disclosed to Victor a series of events that happened next.
Yes, after seeing the death of Da Qi, Siqin immediately organized the manpower of the villa to seal off the surrounding area, and then arranged to search various places. He himself also brought people to the house to protect Mrs. Shasa and the child.
When he saw that Shasa and the children were asleep, Siqin began to investigate each room again.
Originally, he had two security guards with him, but for some reason, they got separated for a while while searching.
And when the two security guards discovered Xiqin again, Xiqin strangely passed out in a certain room and was unconscious...
No one knows what happened. Last night was simply a nightmare night for the Berkeley family. Some kind of force penetrated deep into the villa and wanted to completely wipe out the Berkeley bloodline...
Parker is extremely anxious now. Although the police have sent the most elite personnel to investigate, he doesn't think the police department can find anything.
Dutch is already dead, and now he just wants Mr. Sitchin to survive, otherwise the Berkeley family will be doomed, and their servants will also be doomed.
After listening to the other party's explanation, Victor originally wanted to ask more questions, but Parker left in a hurry, no longer willing to waste time with Victor.
Victor walked downstairs, looked at the bustling streets, and couldn't help but light a cigarette.
"It seems like...all the troubles are falling on me at the same time...the wheel of fortune is really too heavy."
After taking two hard puffs, Victor rushed to the Renekton Police Station to see if de Gaulle was at the police station.
It's a pity that he didn't meet De Gaulle, and he learned from the police officer that he never came again after interrogating Gina.
Victor frowned, feeling that something might happen to De Gaulle as well.
But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something.
"Excuse me, is Ms. Gina still being detained by you?" Victor asked the police officer in front of him.
The latter glanced at him and replied expressionlessly: "Gina Langster? The nun who murdered Tom Ross?"
"Yes, it's her!"
"Of course she is here. She will be handed over to the prison and dragged away after being tried. Well... I really can't believe that such a beautiful lady would choose to kill someone..."
Victor pinched his fake beard: "Well...can I see her?"
