Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Chapter 110: things stick

Evan left after seeing Duke Wilson again, and now the matter of Colonel Mel is more and more complicated, he must figure it out as soon as possible, and only in this way, Duke Wilson There will be less pressure here.

Evan thought of Duke Wilson so much, and the Duke of course knew it very well, so when he sent Evan away early, the joy in his eyes was so obvious that Butler Chris couldn’t help but mutter, This is something that has never happened before. If Pastor Bruce left, the Duke would definitely be sullen.

Duke Wilson did not see the different expression of Butler Chris. After Evan left, he immediately summoned Kevin. Although a positive investigation was necessary in this matter, Duke Wilson What I believe more is his power in the dark. This time, this incident can be hidden from the eyes and ears of his subordinates. It seems that he is definitely not an ordinary person. He must make plans early.

After Evan left Cornwall Manor, he walked directly to Sheriff Chandler's house. Sheriff Chandler was also responsible for this matter. He wanted to know the situation. Sheriff Chandler is the best place to go.

When Evan arrived at Sheriff Chandler's house, Mrs. Chandler was reprimanding the child in the house, her expression was very serious, and when she saw Evan coming, she immediately put on a gentle smile.

"Oh, Pastor Bruce, why are you here, Will is upstairs now, are you looking for him?" Mrs. Chandler was not a pretty lady, but she laughed When he got up, he was still a little gentle.

Evan nodded with a gentle expression, and Mrs. Chandler also dropped her tearful little son, welcomed Evan into the room, and moved towards the two who were watching jokes in the corner. The son shouted, "Go and get your dad down, here's Pastor Bruce."

Now, all the hats and socks knitted on the stools on the sofa look very messy.

Mrs. Chandler smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, I made you laugh, because it will be Christmas in a few days, these are things prepared for the charity association."

Evan smiled and nodded: "You really think a kind lady."

Dlanlier is a traditional Protestant town, the women in the town always have endless kindness, so the charity association and women's association in this town are very lively places , Evan has heard of it before.

At the moment when the two of them were talking, Sheriff Chandler had come downstairs, his tie was crooked and his hair was a little messy. It looked as if he hadn't slept all night.

Seeing him like this, before Evan could do anything, Mrs. Chandler got angry first: "Oh, look what you look like! It's so disrespectful, we There are guests!"

His natural look made Mrs. Chandler angry enough, but Evan couldn't help but smile: "Madam, please don't be angry, Sheriff Chandler is right, I'm good friends with the sheriff and don't mind that."

Watching Mrs. Chandler go out, Sheriff Chandler came over and swept out an open space on the sofa, motioning Evan to sit down.

Evan didn't dislike it, and sat down.

"I know what you are here for, Pastor Bruce." Sheriff Chandler sat on the sofa opposite Evan and rubbed the bridge of his nose tiredly: "It's just that things are still a mess now. I don't know what the **** is going on."

Evan smiled slightly: "When something like this happened, it's not just you, I'm also very confused now, is Mr. Ederson really committing suicide?" He asked tentatively, But he looked at Sheriff Chandler's eyes without blinking, for fear of missing something.

Sheriff Chandler frowned and glanced at Evan: "Do you have any ideas for asking this?" He knew very well that Evan was not A pointless person.

Evan just smiled and shook his head: "Unfortunately, I don't have any idea, I just think that someone like Mr. Edson, he committed suicide, I'm really surprised, Ai Mr Desen is not such a vulnerable person."

Sheriff Chandler couldn't help but sighed: "Not to mention your new pastor, even I don't want to believe it, Edson is a good guy, He has a will of steel, and I am amazed that such a person commits suicide."

Evan couldn't help but raised his eyebrows: "Since this is the case, isn't there any suspicion of homicide?"

Speaking of this, Sheriff Chandler waved his hand with a wry smile: "If there is, I will not rest at home now, but continue to investigate this matter."

Evan couldn't help frowning, and there still seemed to be no trace of Edson's suicide.

"So, did this Mr. Adelson leave any suicide note?" Evan continued to ask.

Sheriff Chandler shook his head: "If there is such a thing, then I don't have to speculate here." , Sheriff Chandler and Evan were unaware of the letter's existence.

Evan couldn't help frowning when he heard it, it seemed that this matter really had no clue.

"Then what is Colonel Mel's mood about this matter?" Evan looked at the corner and asked thoughtfully.

Sheriff Chandler's tone was stagnant, and he looked at Evan with some doubts; "This... I didn't ask, do you think this matter is related to Colonel Mel's case? "

Evan didn't expect that he hadn't thought of this yet, and the smile on his face suddenly became reluctant, he waved his hand gently: "I'm just guessing, because this thing really came It's too coincidental, and these two gentlemen are also Duke Wilson's staff, so I can't help but..."

Sheriff Chandler nodded in agreement: "What you said is very true, and I feel deeply, but these two things are so different that I have never thought about it. things." He said a little embarrassedly.

Evan just smiled: "It's normal for you not to think, after all, I'm just guessing."

But Sheriff Chandler's face became heavy at this time, he looked at Evan and whispered: "Your idea is very novel, but it is also very impressive Deep thinking, these two things are indeed too coincidental, I just accepted this case yesterday, and the General Administration immediately held a meeting, and I didn't think about it carefully, and now it seems that there are indeed a lot of doubts."

Seeing that Sheriff Chandler had understood what he meant, Evan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He always felt that this incident was too coincidental, but he didn't know what was special about it. Maybe only Colonel Mel, who is an insider, knows something he doesn't know.

Since there is a new direction of investigation, Sheriff Chandler is full of energy, he immediately stood up from the sofa, stood in front of Evan a little excited, and whispered Said: "Can you accompany me to interrogate Colonel Mel again. Mr. Colonel is a very cunning person. I think only you can get words out of his mouth."

Evan waved his hand modestly and politely said a few words, but in the end he couldn't resist Sheriff Chandler's invitations, and he followed Sheriff Chandler towards the police station with satisfaction go.

**

I saw Colonel Mel again. He was much calmer than last time. Panic, looking a little pitiful.

"Mr. Colonel." Evan nodded politely to him.

After Evan spoke, Colonel Mel's eyes swept straight towards Evan, but there was no more ups and downs in his eyes, just a little mechanical nodded.

Sheriff Chandler was a little impatient with Colonel Mel like this, tapped the table lightly and said, "I came here with Pastor Bruce this time to tell you a very regrettable news. "

When talking about this, Colonel Mel raised his head sharply, a little panic flashed in his eyes, and Evan couldn't help frowning.

"Mr. Ederson is dead." Sheriff Chandler didn't notice the difference with Colonel Mel, and continued to speak calmly.

Evan has been staring at Colonel Mel's every move, he is very aware that when Sheriff Chandler said these words, Colonel Mel was unaware of relief.

Evan's doubts suddenly increased, what was he worried about?

"Adelson?" Colonel Mayer looked at Sheriff Chandler with a puzzled look, he tilted his head slightly, and a look of confusion appeared on his face: "How could he die? Woolen cloth?"

Sheriff Chandler has been looking at Colonel Mel's face since he finished speaking, for fear of missing something, he couldn't help frowning when he said this: "From the scene , he should have committed suicide."

"Suicide?" Colonel Mel's originally calm tone finally changed a little, he looked at Sheriff Chandler and waved his hand very firmly: "No, no, this is impossible. , Adelson will never commit suicide!"

"Absolutely not?" Sheriff Chandler looked at Colonel Mel with some sarcasm: "Why do you say he will never kill himself? Are you going to tell me that he is a Catholic, Suicide is against doctrine?"

Colonel Mel did not pay attention to Sheriff Chandler's provocative tone, he just frowned and said flatly: "Ederson came to visit me in prison the day before yesterday. "

"What!" Sheriff Chandler suddenly stood up from his chair: "This is impossible, I told you not to let anyone come to see you."

Colonel Mel raised his chin, looked at Sheriff Chandler's face calmly, and whispered: "Yes, you did so, but unfortunately, Ed Sen is my lawyer."

Sheriff Chandler's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. He didn't even know that Ederson was a lawyer.

"What the **** is going on?" Sheriff Chandler sat down with the fire suffocating, looking at Colonel Mel with a bit of gritted teeth.

But Colonel Mayer's face was still calm at this time, as if he was unaware of Sheriff Chandler's anger.

The tone seemed a little uncomfortable: "And also told me that he has a seriously ill son living in a nursing home, and he needs to stay with the Duke to maintain those expenses, otherwise his son... his son will die."

When he said the last sentence, Colonel Mel's tone had become a little bitter, his expression seemed to be a little sad, and he seemed to be a little regretful, he looked straight at the sitting Evan, next to Sheriff Chandler, murmured, "And I, rejected him."
