Chapter Seventy-Three: The Bloodstained Wood Knife (9) [Contested Reward]

More and more people died on the island, and the people were so panicked that when the rain stopped, many servants were clamoring to leave the place. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old servants who had served the Rust family for more than ten years were fine, but the young servants who had not been working for long had to leave, and the posture of resistance was similar to making a revolution, and the old housekeeper had no choice but to agree to let them settle their wages and leave.

In the end, the number of servants left on the island dropped from about 100 to about 20, and the daily work of maintaining the mansion spread out evenly made the pressure on these people increase dramatically in an instant, but fortunately, with a large increase in salary, these servants who already had feelings for the Rust family had no complaints.

As the saying goes, a group of servants have gone, and this isolated island has also ushered in his future "master" - Joyce......

"Master Joyce, you're back." The butler said respectfully.

But Joyce was visibly displeased, and when he heard that so many people had died in the time he had been away, and that there had been no progress in the case, he almost broke out in a gaffe.

But fortunately, there is such a thing as a suicide note, and I am always a little excited when I think that I may be able to inherit the position of the head of the Rust family immediately. Joyce's dream since childhood was to become a great man like his father, and like his ancestors, he has always made the Rust family stand at the top of the world's families, becoming the owner of power and power, and controlling the world.

"Phew—" Joyce exhaled heavily, "Where's the box?" Let's open it now. ”

The housekeeper nodded when he heard this, turned to Huai Yurou and said, "Miss Yurou, please let Young Master Chester take out that box." ”

Huai Yurou nodded, turned and went upstairs, and then about ten minutes later, she and Chester walked down together, but the two of them were empty-handed, and they looked flustered, as if something bad had happened. This made Joyce's otherwise calm heart feel a little uneasy, and he couldn't help but ask, "What happened?" What about the box? ”

"Big, big brother! The box is gone! Chester spoke, his eyes dodging and wandering.

Hearing this, Joyce thought he had misheard at first, and asked the other party to repeat it, and then when he confirmed that it was correct, he became furious.

"You guys! What are you doing!! ”

With a bang, Joyce kicked the decorative vase on the wooden shelf next to him to the ground, and the vase fell to the ground and fell into countless pieces in an instant, but obviously, this was not a vent at all, and Joyce's anger could not be calmed by breaking a vase at all.

Who is he? He is the first heir in line to the Rust family, and he is also the best in the Rust family! Excellent! The most perfect man!

Now that my father has left a suicide note, how will it be written? Let a useless female stream inherit, impossible! Let a stupid brother who will only bow down to his own orders all day long to inherit the family business? It can't be either! The only answer, the only choice! Only let him, the best eldest son, Joyce, inherit it!

He finally waited until he was old and hung up, but he killed him, and he had to find out the real culprit before distributing the inheritance.

And now I can finally take a look at my future wealth in advance, but this happened.

"It's not you! It was you who opened the box without permission and found that the heir written inside was me! So I destroyed the suicide note, and then I wanted to frame my father's death to me through your detective fiancée! Then he rightfully inherited the century-old foundation of the Rust family! ”

Joyce roared in complete disregard of the image, like a lion.

And his usual prestige is very deep, and when he roared like this, Chester turned pale, unable to speak, and his lips trembled and wanted to say that he couldn't speak.

Joyce roared again: "I tell you, even if three of the four detectives I hired died!" And one more, the truth will definitely be found out! He's the best detective in the world! The cases he took over have never been unclear, so if you want to be clever, I advise you to forget it! ”

As he spoke, Joyce turned his gaze to Zhao Tong, his angry eyes softened slightly, and even his words calmed down a lot: "Mr. Zhao, I hope you will not live up to my expectations." ”

Zhao Tong was a little flattered, swallowed his saliva and nodded, after all, he is a player, but he has taken on this identity, and he is not a real detective, under the suppression of the momentum of an absolute superior person like Joyce, it is a little difficult to even maintain neither humility nor arrogance.

However, Zhao Tong's performance Joyce seemed to be very satisfied, as if he liked others to be so obedient to him.

Joyce turned his head and glared at Chester and Huai Yurou fiercely, and his tone was full of threat: "I tell you, if you don't make a small move, I will give you some good places in the future, so that you and your beautiful wife can live the rest of your life carefree." But if you still want to spy on my property, you'd better be evicted from the house! Hum! ”

With that, Joyce went upstairs to herself, leaving the bewildered crowd and the soulless Chester.

Chester was originally very afraid of his eldest brother, but now that he was yelled at like this, he was so scared that he didn't want to, his legs and stomach were a little trembling, and he might be a little drifting when he walked.

And among everyone, Su Ming was very happy, because he got another piece of information: he originally thought that the detective was invited as just a simple choice of ability, and the top ten in the world were hired to solve the case. But now it seems that everyone here is not employed because of their ability, but because of the need to seize the industry and maintain it.

Chester is supposed to have hired the detective's fiancée in order to seize the estate.

Barbara invited herself, but she wanted to help her free herself from the shackles of the Rust family.

And Zhao Tong and the three people who died were invited by Joyce, probably to prevent other detectives from making small moves, for absolute justice.

This raises a question, who invited S?

"Let's go back first, Master Joyce is not in a good mood, and the problem of this suicide note will be solved later." The butler's voice interrupted Su Ming's thoughts, and Su Ming nodded when he heard this, and led Ai Keguan back by himself.

Back in the room, Su Ming opened the drawer of his desk and took out a large stack of thick human skin masks from it, the human skin masks on it were imitated by everyone on this isolated island, and the workmanship was extremely exquisite, and it was difficult to distinguish between real and fake on his face.

This stack of things was found by Su Ming in the church, and at that time, this human skin mask was hidden in the hollow under the floor tiles behind the cross, which was quite hidden, making it easy for Su Ming to find. What's even more bizarre is that when Su Ming was about to leave after looking for him, someone came, and in order not to be discovered, and to see who it was, he hid.

To be honest, Su Ming was still very surprised at that time, this was so bizarre that he didn't even think about it. Su Ming believes that if he were someone else, he would never think of it......
