199 The scapegoat
Ray Peters felt that he must be crazy, he always felt that Hoden's eyes were picking food, but the point was that they were still in the scene of the horrific crime, and the bloody head was looming at the end of his vision, and he still felt that Hoden was picking ingredients-
When he was in "a restaurant" before, this is how Holden looked at the fresh ingredients.
At this time, Hordon is the same, his eyes are burning, flashing with the light of study, and he carefully captures every move, word and deed on the scene.
If it was before, no matter how detailed and detailed Hoden's observation was, it would be in vain without the help of light, but now with the help of psionic energy, it is like a tiger with wings.
"First, there was no blood on Israel's body. In such a bloody murder scene, it is impossible for the murderer to leave no traces of blood on his body. β
With Howlen's words, everyone's eyes were cast towards Israel. Except for the nosebleed and mud from the beating of Star, there were indeed no blood stains on his clothes and pants, not even the smell of blood, and even the blood stains on Lewin's body were more exaggerated than Eastrael's.
"So, you mean, Lewin is the murderer?" Nina looked at Lewin on her knees in disbelief, her eyes full of shock and consternation.
Hodden pursed the corners of his lips slightly, "It's a possibility." Then he slowly came to Lewin's side, "but there is another possibility......"
"Lewin was an eyewitness. β
Hodden crouched down directly in front of Lewin, tilted his head slightly, and actively met his gaze in Lewin's eyes.
Despite all the conversations and movements around him, Lewin never reacted, and sat on his knees as if he were out of his body.
Instead of using psionic energy, Hoden slowed down his voice, faintly with a hint of warmth, and said slowly, "Sangran sachets?"
Lewin's eyes blinked slightly.
"Noble and elegant, elegant and indifferent, the language of flowers is yearning for freedom. Sangran, this is an excellent choice and perfect for you. Hodden said slowly, his calm voice tinged with a touch of warmth, gently soothing Lewin's nervousness.
Involuntarily, Lewin's eyes fell on a red thread revealed in the side pocket of his skirt, and at the end of the thread was a handmade sachet filled with sun-dried Sangran petals, and the feelings of preparing the sachet with his own hands and tying the sachet to his clothes came to mind:
With a hint of anticipation, I look forward to the back-to-school dance, to make new friends, and to find a dance partner to dance with.
That kind of excited and sweet mood, but it seems to be a world away.
In a flicker, Lewin could hear a warm voice from far and near, pulling herself back from the memory.
"Lewin, if you see something, I want you to be able to say it and help us find the murderer. Miss Greta deserves to leave this world in such a cruel way. β
Lewin's eyes blinked, but that was all.
"If you choose to be quiet, there's a good chance that things will get out of hand, with Israel as the suspect and then your turn. The trees want to be quiet, and the wind is not stopping, because the real culprit wants to clear his name, so he must find a scapegoat, and your silence will put you in even greater trouble, even more terrible than your current fear. β
Lewin's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of helplessness.
Although Lewin didn't say anything, Hordon seemed to be able to understand and said meaningfully, "It is undoubtedly noble to choose to sacrifice yourself to end the troubles, but at the same time, you may also lose your bottom line, and the people you protect may not be happy, because you may become the next victim at any time." β
The brainless words were unknown to everyone at the scene.
"None of us know what's going on except for the real culprit, which is why we need to find the truth. Otherwise, Miss Greta would have died innocently, and it would be impossible to tell what the real culprit would do next. It is also unknown whether the sacrifice will be able to achieve the goal. β
Holden's words were not sharp, but the softness of the spring breeze created a completely different effect-
Kontemir was particularly conspicuous, he was getting more and more agitated, his pale face was comparable to moonlight, and the blue veins could be clearly seen in the transparent skin.
Lewin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and glanced up slightly, but then lowered his eyes in fear and trembled uncontrollably.
This time, Hodden did not continue to urge, but waited patiently, just staring at Lewin, conveying his strength with his eyes.
Taking a deep breath, taking a deep breath again, Lewin closed his eyes tightly and exerted all his remaining strength to say loudly, but even with all his strength, the sound could not be fully transmitted, only Hoden and the small circle around him could hear itβand that was enough.
"I saw Kontemir and Greta on the tennis court together. I don't know what happened, but when I got back from the bathroom, all I saw was Greta ......"
The words that followed were swallowed indistinctly, his head buried deep in his knees, and his shoulders shook wildly.
Although Lewin did not see the real murderer, if the murderer was really Kontemir, her testimony could bring disaster to the entire family, so she wanted to sacrifice herself to protect her family, however, Hoden's words made Lewin hesitate and finally choose to stick to the moral bottom line.
All the words that were unexplained were explained.
In an instant, all eyes were cast towards Kontemir.
And Kontemir's expression was not able to clear his suspicion, his fear and panic, his fear and retreat were all displayed on his cheeks, his pupils trembled violently, and his footsteps continued to pound garlic in place in small steps, back and forth, back and forth, but without moving.
"No, no, no. β
Kontemir just repeated over and over again, but without any decent justification, his helpless appearance seemed to be falling apart, and his eyes looked desperately towards Star, but before Starr could respond, he withdrew his gaze timidly and fearfully.
Fluster. Helpless. Flinch.
This is the best description of Kontemir's state at this time, Lewin didn't even give strong evidence, just saw him and Greta appear at the same time, but Kontemir has fallen apart - isn't this not self-defeating and self-defeating?
Could it be that Kontemir is the real murderer?
The onlookers at the scene couldn't help but hold their breath, then this is definitely a blockbuster news that has caused a sensation in the entire rock abyss, and I am afraid that even Tuno will cast his eyes.
Just as all the attention was on Kontemir, Hoden's voice came from the side, "Mr. Star, aren't you going to say something?"
