Chapter Twenty-Five: Love is Deeply Poisonous

Lady Brienne smiled miserably, "Mr. Detective, are you kidding?"

"Of course, no, Ms. Brienne. Eric smiled, "When it comes to knocking on the door of truth, I'm serious. ”

"I see!" Officer Charlie said, clapping his hands and empoweringly, "is it that Ms. Brienne was trying to kill herself, and she accidentally poisoned her husband, Mr. Bourn." ”

Eric rolled his eyes and retorted, "Charlie, your imagination should go to write a police drama, which can earn more than you can as a police officer." ”

"Then tell me, why did Ms. Brienne poison herself, and then poison her husband?" said Charlie in disbelief.

"First, poisoning, poisoning, these are two different concepts. Poisoning is an action, poisoning is a result, and your habitual thinking tends to impose a necessary connection between these two completely different concepts. ”

"Second, poisoning and poisoning, these two concepts belong to different time and space, even if benzene is a highly toxic chemical that can have immediate effect, but as long as the method is appropriate, even if you poison yourself, the result of death can be transferred. ”

"You've said so much, so please explain clearly how Lady Brienne poisoned herself, only to poison Mr. Born. Chiko began to be impatient.

"So what's wrong with this first?" said Eric, picking up the half of the cucumber with his fork.

Charlie and Chiko looked around carefully, but neither thought of anything. Charlie said impatiently: "This is a very ordinary cucumber, is the poison on it?"

"Huh?" said Eric, who didn't deny it.

"But that doesn't make sense. If the poison is on it, how can you guarantee that no one will find out, and how can you guarantee that Mr. Born will definitely touch this cucumber?" Chiko questioned.

"It's simple, just hand it to Mr. Born. ”

"Isn't that too obvious, if it is found to be poisonous, you will immediately become a key suspect. Chiko still didn't want to believe it.

"As long as they can't find the poisoning method, even if the cucumber is found to have benzide on it, the police can't do anything to her. Or, to put it more bluntly, Ms. Brienne could take a bite of it herself and then hand it to her husband, Mr. Bourn, so that no one would suspect her. ”

"Take a bite yourself?" Charlie clearly couldn't understand.

Eric picked up an intact breadstick from the adjacent table, bit off half of it in a few bites, handed it to Chiko, and asked, "Got it?"

Chiko picked up the breadstick stained with Eric's saliva with her index finger and thumb in disgust, still puzzled, and asked, "What does this mean?"

Eric shook his head helplessly, and he walked over to Lady Brienne's side, suddenly grabbing her arm and raising it. Ms. Britney reflexively writhed and struggled, crying aggrievedly, "What do you want to do!"

"Just rub the benzene powder on this silk sleeve beforehand, and pick up the cucumber with a white-gloved hand, so that the back half of the cucumber will be stained with this highly toxic chemical, and the first half will still be clean, and Ms. Brienne will only have to pretend to eat the front part, and what will be left for Mr. Born is the highly toxic second half. ”

When Officer Charlie heard this, he immediately motioned for the officers on the side to remove the gloves from Ms. Brienney's hands. Unexpectedly, Ms. Brienne did not put up any resistance and slumped in her chair with a pale face.

"Is there anything else you would like to explain, Ms. Brienne. Chiko asked disappointedly.

Ms. Brienne's eyes were glazed, there was no despair, no sadness, no unwillingness, and no one could see through her mood at this moment. Eric walked over to Mr. Born's body and raised his left hand.

"You're getting divorced, aren't you?" asked Eric.

Lady Brienne smiled miserably, "How did you see that?" ”

"Mr. Born has two marks on the ring finger of his left hand, the same width as the ring on your hand. I think he only recently picked it off. Eric explained.

"Mr. Detective, you didn't even give me the last face. Britney's eyes filled with tears again.

"Is it because of this that you ...... Mr. Bohn?" Chiko thought incredulous.

"For this?" Brienne showed an extremely tormented look, "Miss Chiko, do you know what is behind the 'this' you are talking about?"

"Yes, what. Chiko felt that she should not have asked.

"He and I met seven years ago, when we were both doing PhDs in chemistry at Meate University. At that time, I was the daughter of the head of the chemistry department, and he was just an ordinary boy who was unknown. Later we fell in love, because of his mediocre qualifications and conditions, and my friends, including my father, were strongly opposed to our love. But I still married him without hesitation, and I naively believed that it was love, and as long as I married love, everything was worth it. ”

Eric shook his head and sighed, "It is a very foolish thing to pin all your joy and happiness on an ethereal thing. ”

Chiko glared at Eric dissatisfied, and at such a time, his words were obviously very ruthless.

"Who's to say it isn't. Within 3 years of getting married, Born and I began to become more and more estranged, until a year ago, when I saw him and his female graduate student hugging and kissing each other in front of the laboratory door, I knew that my love was dead. ”

"So you decided to kill Mr. Bohn?" asked Charlie.

"Or else?" Britney said with a grim smile and a hideous roar, "I gave everything for him, but in exchange for a divorce agreement, shouldn't he pay for my youth and my love!"

"Alright. Ms. Brienne. Charlie pulled out the handcuffs, "You are suspected of poisoning and murder, and now you should also pay for your actions." ”

Charlie handled Brienne and let the accompanying officers take her into the police car. He turned to Eric and asked, "What about you, not going to sit at the police station?"

"Next time, Charlie, I still have some trouble to deal with. Eric glanced at Chiko beside him.

Charlie smiled appreciatively, "Okay, detective, it seems that women are more difficult to deal with than murders, right?"

Eric touched his nose and smiled without saying a word. You know, this is no ordinary woman.

"What are you laughing at!" Chiko saw Eric laughing at Charlie's police car in the distance, and suddenly became suspicious in her heart-

This rogue detective must be thinking of something bad again!
