396 Catching turtles in urns
“...... He was the first to arrive at the scene, and he was the last to leave before the murder. ”
The confusion and nervousness firmly grasped the heart, and the breathing was disordered, and Tamkin could no longer think about it, so he could only reflexively launch a counterattack, and his first reaction was to aim the muzzle of the gun at Horden, and push the focus back again.
Brush brush brush.
The gaze shifted again, and it fell on Holden, Tamkin only used a short sentence to turn the situation around, Holden became the biggest suspect instead, even Count Gustav looked at Holden with interest, and the spearhead of the whole audience instantly accumulated on Holden's shoulders.
But Holden didn't panic, didn't even say much, just looked at Tamkin carefully, and his calm gaze showed a different demeanor-
Definitely not the demeanor of a criminal suspect.
Even in the face of accusations, he can still look like a beautiful man, and he doesn't need a word of justification, and the eyes of doubt and speculation are in a commotion, and he can't help but overturn his speculation again, and then his eyes move back and forth between Tamkin and Hoden, and Captain Mumeni is also the object of many people's scrutiny, but it is not so hot.
Tamkin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, always feeling that the situation was not pretty, trying to say something more, but not quite sure what he should say, goosebumps appeared on the back of his back under the gaze of Howlen's eyes, and the creepy feeling lingered.
"......" Tamkin was about to speak, but this time, Hoden cut him off just in advance.
"If it were me, I would have chosen to shut up. Hodden said with a smile, looking like a kind advice, "I just advised and reminded you, at this time, it is more wrong to say more, because you don't know when you will leak out, but you may expose your own details." ”
"This ...... Mr. Tamkin?" Hodden's slow-hearted words were really, really underwhelming, and he always looked confident and confident.
Tamkin must admit that Holden's composure is very "inflammatory", and he can unconsciously grasp the atmosphere of the audience, and he is about to attack again, but he did not expect that Holden's pause is deliberate, and he interrupted his words for the second time in a row, and preemptively spoke.
"When I left the room, there was no one else in the hallway, I went to the bathroom, got lost, and asked a vigilante for directions, Issa and Alber were safe and sound, and when I came back, the scene was in shambles. ”
"Of course, I admit that I am suspicious. For the third time in a row, Horden cut off Tamkin's words, and seeing that Tamkin seemed to be ready to continue to press, Horden took the initiative to admit his suspicion, his eyes were always locked on Tamkin, and he firmly controlled the rhythm of the conversation, which made Tamkin very, very uncomfortable.
"Hah! you admit it!" said Tamkin, who had finally found a gap, but had no heart to say anything else, only gloated.
But Tamkin looked around for supporters, only to find that his impatience didn't seem to have the desired effect.
Huh? Why?
Just as Tamkin triumphantly tried to seek support, Hoden's words rang out again, and the audience couldn't help but cast their eyes on Hoden:
Attention and thinking skills are in full control of Holden.
"The only problem is that no one can prove my condition, and how do you know if you weren't there?
Tamkin was choked by the throat like this.
"Or is it that everything happened under your watchful eye?" Mr. Tamkin. ”
Horgan smiled again.
The fox's tail can no longer be hidden.
So, should we admit it here, and then further accuse Howlen, or should we deny it and keep silent?
It seems that admitting that he is on the scene is the only option, but Tamkin suddenly realizes that if he admits to being on the scene, then the subsequent trap may not be able to get rid of, and now he finally understands the meaning of Hoden's words:
Say more, be wrong.
However, now that the bow has been fired and there is no turning back, Tamkin cannot deny it, otherwise he will not be able to explain his statement, and he can only become an eyewitness to testify against Hoden-
Danger, Tamkin also smelled danger, but he didn't choose, "Yes, I witnessed your crime at the scene, but I chose to shut up because I was afraid of your retaliation." ”
"Now I'm not afraid, all are my witnesses, and you can't do anything to me. Tamkin summoned up the courage to cast a plea glance in all directions, trying to stir up the atmosphere.
Between the lightning and flint, the speed of thinking was not so fast, and the onlookers at the scene could faintly sense that something was wrong, but their thoughts still followed Tamkin's words, until Howlen's voice came:
"But you just said, 'You think I'm a murderer,' because I accused you of being a murderer, and you beat you up, and now you're claiming to be an eyewitness, so do you want everyone to feel it, or do you really see it?"
With a simple sentence, everyone immediately realized: this contradiction was too obvious, and Tamkin's words were simply nonsense.
"I ...... I was just nervous, I was scared. Tamkin's palms were already soaked with sweat, and he held the handkerchief tightly to hide all the sweat, but he couldn't help but get more and more flustered, and then he saw Hoden's eyes, like cats and mice.
However, surprisingly, Horden did not interrupt Tamkin's "defense", but took a step and began to circle around Tamkin and Captain Mumeni, as if on the spot.
There was nothing special about those calm eyes, there was nothing "as sharp as an eagle's falcon", and there was no "energy to see through people's hearts", but it was this ordinary look that made Tamkin's heart more and more flustered.
"You!" tried his best to control his emotions, and instead of shouting at the other party like those amateur crimes, trying to clear his innocence, he ended up selling himself clean in the gushing words, and he forced himself to calm down.
In the entire security team, the noise of rustling gradually settled, and finally only the sound of low breathing was left, inexplicably quiet, and then all eyes were drawn by Horden again - although now Horden seems to be a suspect, at least one of the suspects, but between speculation and suspicion, the balance seems to be quietly tilted towards Horden, and he always feels that Horden should not be the murderer.
The atmosphere quietly changed like this, and even His Royal Highness the Third Prince and Count Gustav did not open their mouths to interrupt this unusual confrontation.
Ray Peters and Brutus still didn't move their feet, they were still watching the whole room, carrying out Holden's instructions to the end.
