"There were no obvious signs of fighting at the scene. All the servants in the old gentleman's house were driven to the service room behind the villa. It is said that the housekeeper led them here together, saying that it was the master's order to let them do it at night.
A big project.”
"None of the servants in the villa have any doubts. That's because the master started saying two or three days ago that they might want to move out of this city and go to a larger and more prosperous capital city."
"When everyone got together at this time, they thought they were going to pack up their things overnight and leave early tomorrow morning."
"After all, ever since the master issued the order, they have begun to pack their luggage at home one after another. Everyone is almost ready."
"As for the concierge responsible for opening the door, he was not in the guard booth in front at that time."
"Because they had to pack their luggage, the guard locked the front door early, so there was no need for him to keep an eye on it."
"And during this process, no one knocked on the door and asked him to open the door."
In other words, this old-fashioned gentleman was silently hanged to death in the living room by a mysterious man at home.
Then who on earth had such great hatred for him that he killed him in his own home in an almost humiliating way?
According to what the servant said, this old gentleman had no suicidal tendencies.
He was very proud of being able to go to the metropolis from this not-so-busy town.
And I heard that there is a better life waiting for him in the big city.
This is also a strange point.
You know, this old gentleman named Yorkshire just has some influence in the city of York.
Their ancestors were once wealthy, and they made their fortune from the capital city.
Judging from the industries he currently operates, there is no sign that he can successfully move to the capital.
So is his confidence and certainty related to his dark industry with Jack?
The great detective would definitely not elaborate on this issue with an irrelevant person like Mai Fan. After he was called away by the director of the police station, Jack was completely ignored.
Throughout the entire interrogation, only one secretary was left to sort out the notes from the previous interviews.
Not long after, even the clerk was transferred by the police chief because more people needed him to record and register confessions.
At this time, only Jack, who was in a cage, and Mai Fan, who was left outside and needed to cooperate with the police registration at any time, were left in the interrogation room.
After confirming that no one will come in the interrogation room for a short period of time.
Jack started chatting with Mai Fan with some evil intentions.
"Hey, I knew nothing good would come of this old Yorkie."
"Such sanctimonious upper-class people think they are much nobler than others."
"I didn't expect that he was just a pawn in the hands of others. In the eyes of the real big shots, maybe he was also a low-class and dirty pawn."
"I really didn't expect that at such an old age, he would still be so naive and believe in the promises made by those people."
"Now I'm sure that the clues have been broken at this point. It's basically impossible for the detectives and police chiefs to find the person behind it."
"My closest friend, do you think I should tell those people some crucial clues?"
"Also, after knowing these important clues, do you think our great detective in York City, Mr. Rock, will be able to catch the real murderer in time?"
How do I know this? It's impossible for you to tell me the clues. Why should I worry about it?
Mai Fan closed his eyes and pretended not to hear with his glasses, the old god was there.
Mai Fan's reaction made Jack feel extremely bored. The more this happened, the more his competitive spirit was aroused. He must see an expression of disbelief, surprise or shock on Mai Fan's face.
, so as to live up to his dignity as a serial killer.
So Jack dropped a few more bombshells.
"You know? One time I went to deliver something late. What did I see in this old man's backyard?"
Mai Fan said nothing.
The more this happens, the more desperate Jack becomes.
"I saw a nobleman's coat of arms."
"This emblem is the family emblem belonging to our city lord."
"Do you know when our city lord's family emblem will be used? It will only be done seriously after the members of their master's family in the capital come, or when they are going to receive a nobleman larger than them.
Move this badge out."
"Of course, maybe I have little knowledge. After all, among so many noble badges, I only know our city lord."
"Yes, you heard it right, lots and lots of medals."
"That day, because of this medal, I didn't leave. I waited until about three o'clock in the middle of the night before the banquet at the old man's house was over."
"After the banquet, seven carriages left the old man's house and went to all directions in the city."
"But do you know? Usually when a big noble comes to our small city, he will publicize it and everyone will know it."
"These people came in a hurry, and then took advantage of the city lord's privileges to leave the city in a hurry."
"It's really puzzling that everything is done under the cover of darkness."
"After that night, I discovered one thing, that is, they have a banquet like this about once every half month. Do you know why I know how often they have banquets? That's because every half month
, this old man wants to order a batch of goods from me."
"Haha, I am the lowest supplier, providing goods to this old man's servant in a place unknown to everyone. Next, this group of nobles who don't know where they come from will enjoy this batch.
Delicious goods.”
"In order to confirm my conjecture, after delivering the goods several times, I did not leave immediately. Instead, I secretly fell behind the delivery servants. I made sure that they returned home, and then I made sure that the old man was at this time.
Are there any related banquets held at your home?
Don’t tell me, my guess was correct. I followed him four or five times after that, and every time I was not disappointed.”
"For the next four or five banquets, the carriages that came to the old man's house for the carnival each time were equipped with different noble medals."
"The only thing that is the same is that every banquet will be accompanied by our city lord's carriage."
"Do you know how many banquets they have held since I took this job?"
"Ah, even I, the person in charge, can hardly remember it."
