What the?
Wait, what!
Bullock's speed of thinking was a little unstable, and he was slightly stunned - he didn't realize this at all, he was simply immersed in the ecstasy of arresting the murderer;
Bullock tries to interrupt Holden, but always feels that the timing is wrong, because Holden really doesn't leave him a gap.
Immediately afterwards, Hodden went on to say, "As a bookkeeper, it is clear that Mr. Lehrmann should know that the accounts of the partners are interconnected, and he cannot simply cross out the accounts of one ledger and ignore the other evidence, so that even if Mr. Stanley dies, the other partners can still continue to recover the debt that 'should have disappeared but did not disappear,' right?"
"Otherwise, it would be foolish to kill Mr. Stanley. ”
Brock's words were stuck in his throat like this, and he always felt that he was being wrapped in it, but Holden's words could not find a flaw in a short time.
Of course, Mr. Rubeck should continue to investigate and make sure that all the suspense and questions are answered reasonably, rather than casually. ”
"Please forgive me for my urgency and concern, after all, the entire Iwabuchi is now paying attention to this case, and even His Royal Highness the Third Prince is looking forward to the truth, Mr. Rubek will definitely handle it carefully, for the glory of the security team, and for the sake of justice. ”
Howlen chuckled, top hat after hat, and reminded Bullock that he didn't need to care about a little ant like Mr. Lechman, but he certainly needed to care about the nobles, and this was Bullock's chance to be in the limelight.
Bullock immediately heard the deep meaning of Horden's words, and was completely immersed in his own thoughts, so that he didn't notice that Horden's title had changed back again, and the mockery and ridicule hidden in it were tugging at his sensitive nerves - what if he made a mess in front of His Royal Highness the Third Prince?
Brock was a little anxious and couldn't help but want to gnaw on his nails.
Then Hodden turned to Pascia and said with a smile, "Judging from the alibi, although Mr. Lechman has no way to prove his whereabouts, there are also no witnesses who can prove that Mr. Lechman was in the same place as Mr. Stanley that night. ”
"All inferences now are inferences of guilt based on the ledger as key evidence, because the ledger provides a potential motive for the crime, so the alibi becomes an adjunct to the inference of guilt, but the problem is that we should insist on the presumption of innocence, and no other potential evidence can be used as evidence of guilt until the motive for the crime is conclusively proven. ”
Wait, what guilty inferences, what innocent inferences, what and what?
Brock's thoughts couldn't keep up with Howlen's rhythm at all, but the fact that he could see Pascia with a blank face in the corner of his eyes suddenly made Brock nervous-
He must not show cowardice in front of Pacia, if Pacia knows, then he must also pretend to be professional, and if he does not understand, he must pretend to understand.
So, Brock also followed Horden's words lightly, revealing a confident expression, as if he was in line with Hoden.
Everything in front of him fell into Patya's eyes, and his mood became more and more happy. Actually, Paxia didn't understand the proper nouns that Holden was talking about, but he could understand the core meaning of Holden, which he and Issa had been discussing:
They need to be open to all possibilities before the truth is proven by definitive evidence, so as not to miss the truth.
However, Patsia's attention was all on Bullock, admiring Bullock's performance, a great play, he never knew that Bullock was also such a good actor.
Holden's words continued, "This also means that the evidence in the ledger should be further checked and confirmed to ensure that there are no omissions." ”
Then, Hodden gave Brock a curious look, as if a student was asking a professor.
"I'm sure this is Mr. Rubeck's next investigative plan, right?"
Bullock didn't expect Hoden to throw the question back like this, and his expression was momentarily stunned, but then he saw Hoden's eyes full of sincerity, and before he realized it, he had reflexively nodded and blurted out the words.
"Of course. ”
After the words were spoken, Bullock reacted half a beat slower, and immediately realized that this was the right choice - he didn't want to make a fool of himself, this case could have been the highlight of his career, and if the investigation went wrong, it would be self-destruction.
He needs to be cautious, and he needs to be careful, otherwise by the time His Royal Highness the Third Prince notices it, it will be too late.
Thinking of this, Brock became proud.
Fortunately, he was smart enough to get inspiration from Hoden's words right away, and was able to adjust his strategy in time;
Bullock was complacent because of his sensitivity and wisdom, and completely thought that it was his own credit, and the sincere eyes of Hoden in front of him were really a little hairy boy who didn't know what was going on, which made Bullock more and more proud, and when he looked at Hoden again, he became more and more condescending.
"Indeed, we need to slowly review all the relevant evidence, and we need to continue to look through those potential clues to try to piece together the truth of the matter. ”
"You should know that investigating a case is never that simple, just like your homeless disappearance, there have been no clues until now, mainly because you are not serious enough and not committed enough, if you can invest enough time like me, things will be different. ”
Bullock was still boasting about himself, which made Patsia's face speechless, and he couldn't believe his ears: what the hell was going on in Brock's head? Is Brock sure he knows who Hoden is standing here?
"It's time for you guys to come on. ”
"I can't say more to you, I need to confirm some evidence and information, you know, the whole city is watching this case right now, I can't be as relaxed as you, I have a lot of work to do. So, I'm looking forward to the next exchange. ”
After saying that, Brock didn't stay any longer, and after "pointing" Holden and Paxia, he turned around and walked away.
Patsia wordlessly turned to look at Holden, "......" pointed to Bullock's back, and then spread his hands, full of grumbling but not knowing how to express it, "He...... You ......"
Holden showed a shallow smile in his eyes, "Some people are like this, they say that he is fat and he gasps, but we all know that he is not fat at all." ”
That's how it is described...... Pascia was stunned, then burst out laughing.
