"What are you kidding? How could a superior person like me do such a thing? Carl replied dismissively.

Carl originally thought that Tang Ning would continue to entangle with him on this issue, but what he didn't expect was that Tang Ning nodded along with him this time and said, "That's right, I also think that a superior person like Mr. Carl would not do such a thing." ”

But then his words changed: "But isn't there another Mr. Jack by Miss Ruth's side?" I think he's not a superior person, is he? ”

"Jack wouldn't do such a thing, he's a painter, an artist!" Ruth retorted angrily.

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Neither painters nor artists are reasons why he can't be a criminal, so I still have to investigate his alibi." ”

To Downing's surprise, after Jack came to the scene, before he could speak, Nick's butler rushed out excitedly, pointed at Jack and said, "Mr. Detective, I report, this guy is suspected of committing a major crime, because our master once beat him before!" ”

"Oh? What hit him because of something? Tang Ning hurriedly asked.

The butler glanced at Ruth, and then snorted coldly, "Because this painter stole our master's coat!" ”

Hearing this reason, Carl naturally laughed happily, pointed at Jack and teased: "It turns out that you artists will also do this kind of thing!" It's unthinkable! ”

Ruth asked Jack with an ugly face, "Jack, is this true?" ”

Jack nodded and replied, "Yes, it's true." ”

But then he quickly explained: "But I did it for a reason, you remember that I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm really worried that something will happen to you and I want to come to you." But with my identity, I couldn't come to the first class at all, so I was forced to take Mr. Nick's coat on the side of the ship on the spur of the moment, and under the cover of this coat, I got mixed into the first class, do you remember when you asked me where you got such a high-end dress?

I admit I did something wrong, so I didn't fight back when Mr. Nick hit me, but I'm doing it all for you! ”

Regardless of whether what Jack said was true or not, Tang Ning secretly admired this guy's flirting skills, no wonder he could go to the first class cabin as a third-class girl, there was a reason for this.

Women are emotional animals, many times they look at things not rationally to see the results, but to look at the motives emotionally, just now Jack's affectionate confession is not to mention Ruth, even Miss Bao beside Downing was moved to tears.

Ruth was really moved to hug Jack and murmured, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now." ”

Carl, on the other hand, was jealous, dragged the two apart, and said to Jack viciously: "The point now is not about you stealing Mr. Nick's coat, but whether you killed Nick with a grudge!" Say, where are you at XX o'clock? Can anyone testify to you? ”

Hearing Carl's question, Tang Ning felt a little surprised, because the time he asked was obviously wrong, could it be that this guy was confused by jealousy?

But what he never expected was that Carl's question was actually a trap, and Jack actually fell for the trick, only to see him blurt out and ask, "Huh?" Didn't Nick die in XX? How did it become XX points? ”

Hearing this, Downing suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he jumped to Jack's side and asked in a deep voice, "How do you know that Mr. Nick is XX dead?" This time was calculated after I had just done the experiment, and the only people in this room knew about it, and you weren't there just now, so how did you know? Could it be that the second officer who brought you here told you? ”

The second mate hurriedly shook his head and said, "I didn't tell him!" ”

At this time, even Carl reacted, pointed at Jack and said loudly: "Ah! It turns out that the murderer is really you! No wonder you know the real time of the crime! ”

Seeing that he couldn't deny it anymore, Jack simply raised his head and replied: "Yes, I did this, but I didn't do it because this Nick beat me, nor for me alone, I am for you, including you, for all the people on the ship!" If I had known that you were going to do this to me, I really shouldn't have saved you and let you crash headfirst into the iceberg and die! ”

"Iceberg?! How do you know about this? Tang Ning hurriedly asked.

"Because I found a telegram in Nick's coat pocket, I thought something was wrong, so I ran to him and confronted him, and an argument broke out, and I killed him by mistake!" Jack explained.

And Carl and the others next to him were asking, "Iceberg? What iceberg? What the hell are you talking about? What does it mean to hit your head on an iceberg and die? Mr. Detective, can you explain this to us? ”

"Well, this matter has passed, so it's better not to ask." Downing said perfunctorily, and then changed the subject: "Now we are dealing with Mr. Jack's problem first, he is the murderer of Mr. Nick anyway, so we must arrest him and hand him over to the police for handling in New York......"

But before he could finish speaking, Karl interrupted: "Since he has already confessed to killing, why spend that time?" It's been a long time before he gets to New York, so what if he escapes during this time? So it's better to solve the problem directly! With that, Carl took out his pistol and shot Jack to death.

Seeing this, Ruth yelled at Carl like crazy, "Why did you kill him? What right do you have to kill him? ”

Carl replied disapprenosingly: "Didn't I just say, since Jack has already admitted it, then he is the murderer, sooner or later he will die, I just sent him to God in advance." ”

Although everyone knew that Carl was doing this to declare a personal vendetta, it was really impossible to find any major fault with him, and even if he was accused of abusing lynching, the court would not have convicted him of any felony for his current reasons and his wealth.

And this sudden everything made Tang Ning dumbfounded and caught off guard, although "killing Jack" was his main task this time, but he was never in a hurry to complete this task, always thinking about giving this originally extremely sad couple a little more time together, but he never expected it to be completed like this......
