382. Chapter 382, ​​Barton's Predicate

    "Master Dennis excitedly yelled at the old man…"Everyone can see that the woman married to you, just to seek the property of our family, only you are still in the dark. You are already confused, and I am fascinated by her. I won't watch this happen. If you don't want to erase her name from the will, I will find another way! '"Barton imitated the party's tone and said, "After the young master finished this sentence, the master screamed loudly, and then the gunshot rang. At that time, I was really scared and almost fell off the tree. Fortunately, I was close to the trunk, hugged and slipped in time. after that……I ran into the house and met everyone in the corridor on the second floor. ”

    This Barton seems to be an honest man, the city is not deep, just a little gossip. The servants in the big family are interested in the ugliness of the host family, and it is also human nature.

    Feng does not think that Barton's description may have added fuel, but the basic meaning should not be too much. So, Jing Ge tried to ask: "That is…You think that this 'other way to think' is…"He made a gesture of rubbing his neck with his hand.

    “hmm…Barton's eyes widened and nodded.

    "This is a bit arbitrary."Feng did not know, "When I was in the hall, I saw that their relationship has not been so tight that you are dead and alive."

    "No…You don't know, Mr. Feng. ”Barton’s body went together and said, “I’ve been here for eight years as a gardener, so I’m more or less aware of some things…”The soul of the gossip seems to have been ignited, and the face is seriously described: "Mrs. Otata was married to the master seven years ago, when she was only twenty-eight years old, and Lord Coleston was fifty-five. year old. This kind of marriage between the old husband and the wife, what the outsiders will see, you should also know…"

    "Yeah."A pear flower pressed the sea otter. ”Feng Jie did not know, "beautiful…"His face looked faint.

    Uhwhat did you say? ”Barton wondered, it seems that the translation function that comes with the system can not convey the meaning of the seal.

    "Nothing, just thinking about something that is irrelevant."Unexpectedly, I changed my face with a serious expression and brought the topic back: "I think, even if it is not on the surface, most people will still think that…Mrs. Orta was married to Mr. Lovecraft for the sake of money. ”

    "Yes."Barton responded with a sigh, "So you should be able to guess, the three children of the master, reacted when they heard the news."

    "Three children?"Feng did not know, "Is there a one besides Dennis and Jack?"

    "Yes, Master has a daughter, Miss Nancy."Barton added, "Master Dennis and Master Jack are the children of the first lady, and Miss Nancy is the father and the second wife."

    "Miss Nancy is in this villa now?"I didn’t know what to ask.

    "Not at, but she should have arrived today."Barton replied, "In fact, only the old man and the wife are here, the young master and the wife live in the city, Miss Nancy works in Vienna, the second master…It seems that there is no fixed place. But at this time of the year, they will come back and stay until Thanksgiving. ”

    “hmm…Feng did not feel quickly in the brain to understand the situation of this family, and again, "understand…Please continue. ”

    "Yes.Barton went on to say in the past, "When the grandfather announced that he was going to marry the young Ms. Otata, the family naturally thought that this woman came to the property of the master. Of course, at that time, Master Jack was busy as a rock star, and Miss Nancy was still in college. Although they were quite vocal about this matter, they were not completely unacceptable. ”

    "The attitude of Dennis is more intense."I didn’t feel the way to follow each other’s words.

    “Correct.”Barton said, "I am almost as big as Master Dennis. In fact, I understand him very well. If I have a rich old man, I want to marry a stepmother who is five or six years younger than me. I will also oppose it. ”

    "In short, the contradiction between the two of them has been buried since then, right?"I don’t know how to seal it.

    "Yes, so the relationship between Master Dennis and Mrs. Odetta has been very tense over the years, but it has been very polite on the surface."Barton replied.

    "Oh?"Feng Shuan said, "I heard the present…The focus of the problem seems to be the will of Lord Corston. What do you know about that? ”

    Barton heard the words, recalled for a few seconds, said: "Well…That's…Winter three years ago. One afternoon, the master suddenly had a stroke in the study. Although he was finally out of danger, he had to be with his crutches in the days to come. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the always-powerful master. After that, his physical condition became worse and worse. A few months later, he found a lawyer and made a will…"

    Unexpectedly, he interrupted: "Is it wrong…Is the lady letting him stand? ”

    UhI don't know about it. ”Barton said, "But Master Dennis seems to think so, and he has argued with the master many times because of the will. I remember that once they were very fierce, the whole house heard the young master shouting in the house, 'The woman is a witch! She should be tied to the firearm to burn it! '"

    “hmm…I thought for a moment, and said: "So…Why are you…Tell me about these things? ”

    "Because I really don't know who to go to, Mr. Feng."Barton looked calm and succinct. "What happened to the lord today really scared me. The words of Master Dennis are also…I feel that this will definitely happen. Master and my wife are good to me on weekdays. I don't want to see any of them encountering an accident or making a life-threatening behavior. ”He paused. "I saw it in the corridor before. You are very calm when faced with unexpected situations. From your eyes, I can see that you are an amazing person. So I came to tell you this, I think, maybe you can talk to the master or the young master and persuade them not to do stupid things. ”

    When I heard this, I didn’t have any fluctuations in my expression. He was silent for a while before he said: “In the end, I am just a passerby who has a car accident in the mountains. I don't qualify for the housework of their Lovecraft family. ”

    Barton bowed his head and showed a disappointed expression.

    Feng Jie did not know: "In my opinion, you are nervous, Mr. Barton. Everyone will say a few words…Especially when the mood is out of control. ”He spread his hands. "What witches and fires are obviously metaphorical." The phrase 'think another way' may mean…By means of litigation. ”He stood up and took a shot of Barton's shoulder. "Don't worry, Mr. Barton, nothing will happen…"

    "Ah–" A woman’s scream screamed and interrupted the words.

    The system voice is followed: [The current task has been completed and the main line task has been updated]

    In the menu, [Leave in the villa, wait for the case to happen] that has been ticked, the new task appears: [survey investigation scene, waiting for the police to arrive]
