Chapter 31: Whom to Spare?
Early in the morning, when the newsboy threw the newspaper outside the door of 117 Queen's Road, the door opened a crack, and a hand with excessive body hair came out of the crack in the door, grabbed the newspaper and took it back, and closed the door. The newspaper had been placed on the somewhat old dining table after the man had passed through the hallway and a door. There was also a layer of black putty at the bottom of the edge of the table, which gave off a strange smell.
In about ten minutes, a young boy walked into the dining room, sat down on a chair at the table, picked up a newspaper rolled into a stick, and unfolded it, the first page of the newspaper in black and bold, reporting the most eye-catching events of yesterday in the city of Turnier.
"Death of the Satyr"
It's a thriller title, and if you don't know, you think it must be a movie or a novel, not a newspaper. Durin nodded in satisfaction, the newspaper was accurate, and he said thank you before withdrawing his gaze from Dover's body, and took a sip of warm milk. Untreated and skimmed milk is heated, some of the water is evaporated, and after being a little concentrated, the mellow taste is fascinating.
His gaze began to read line by line.
"There was a homicide in the city late last night, but what is unpredictable is that the deceased is the real 'murderer', and the murderer is the victim. After being followed by reporters and interviewing police officers, the truth of the homicide was clarified. Morris, a gang member known as 'Lederhosen Morris', died in a hotel room. And before he died, he also brutally assaulted a schoolgirl......"
The whole story revolves around the conjecture and material gathering of Morris's death, including the information about the girl named Nasha. She's not from Turnier, she just goes to school here. Her home is in the capital of the empire, her father is in business, her mother is ill, and Nasha, who has no one to take care of her, is sent to the countryside of Turner. If Morris's soul hadn't dissipated when he read this, perhaps he would have sighed that this was a reincarnation.
In short, Nasha killed and Morris died.
What's more, the murder scene is full of mistakes and omissions at all, as Nasha actively revealed in the newspaper, she doesn't remember anything. Turnier City Attorney Domir also briefly discussed the murder on the second page of the newspaper, and in his opinion, Nasha was clearly hiding something, because from the evidence collected at the scene of the murder and the circumstances at the scene, there should have been three people in the room at that time, not two.
Moreover, prosecutor Domir also said that even intense trauma cannot completely cause a person to lose his memory for a period of time, and judging from the way Morris died, it is not like a girl who has just been raped can do it.
So Prosecutor Domir believes that Nasha lied about it, that she hid the most crucial evidence, and that it may have been a premeditated murder.
Durin casually threw the newspaper on the table, and he had to admire Kevin, the title of lawyer was really not called nonsense. He knew exactly what prosecutor Domir would react and think, and it was no wonder that there was no case in Turner that he couldn't win.
At that time, when Kevin said his plan, Durin still felt that there was a certain risk, but from the current point of view, this guy should almost be a monster, right?
Of course, a thousand dollars was spent for peace of mind, and the rest was up to Kevin to do it himself. If he fails, his whole life will be over, which is why Durin is relieved.
Looking at the time, it was almost eight o'clock, and according to the plan, the 30,000 bottles of wine that now belonged to him had entered the temporary warehouse at the station. According to his agreement with the suppliers, he needs to pay the deposit first, and the more than 2,000 yuan will bottom out in an instant. The three major suppliers didn't have much to complain about only giving a 10% deposit, after all, they were begging Durin to buy their things, even if they said that they would sell half and give half, they wouldn't have anything to say.
In addition, it is normal to give only a deposit for such a large supply.
In this way, 30,000 bottles of wine silently entered the temporary warehouse of the station, perhaps ten days ago, Du Lin did not think that it would only take half a month to make such a big business.
That's a 100,000 dollar deal!
"Yes, okay, a little more...... Okay, don't move!", under the command of Durin, the teenagers hoisted up the accessories of the large stills one by one, and installed them one by one. They don't necessarily know what these things are, and they don't need to know what they are, just that they know that this thing is a good thing.
Under the Golden Bullet Offensive, the warehouse was quickly built, and this kind of warehouse did not need any luxurious decoration, only required no rain leakage, no wind intake, and the floor was enough to leave the ground one foot away. Such a simple requirement was quickly covered with the concerted efforts of everyone, and after assembling these stills, the low-alcohol liquor could be pulled in batches, distilled into high-strength liquor, and then sold.
Countless amounts of money were in front of him, and Durin was full of energy.
After assembling the two stills with the boys of the Fellow Townsmen's Association, Du Fo, who had been watching from the door, walked in, he walked up to Du Lin and whispered a few words, Du Lin took a towel to wipe the dust on his hands, and ordered everyone to assemble the other stills according to the way the two were assembled just now, and turned around and left the warehouse.
As the two of them walked, Du Buddha said, "Our people went to the passenger station to find out the whereabouts of Hune's family, and when they arrived at the local area, they caught them, and they had just returned, and now they are on the tenth." He said that the tenth is the last warehouse, which was built yesterday and has not yet been varnished.
Durin nodded, said a good job, and stopped talking along the way.
At the beginning, he gave Hunn 1,800 yuan because he still had compassion in his heart, after all, he felt that there should be a little bottom line and kindness in the hearts of people. He could have waited for Hunn to be completely desperate before buying the ranch, not only did it not cost 1,800 yuan, but he also did not need to pay another 1,000 yuan in consulting fees. His idea at that time was very simple, 1,800 yuan, plus there should be a little bit of value at home, it should not be difficult to get together 200 yuan, so there will be 2,000 yuan.
With 2,000 yuan, whether it is borrowing from relatives or friends, it is not impossible for a person to make up another 200 yuan for 10 yuan and 200 yuan. He left a way back for the family and gave them the last hope, because he was not the person in his dreams, and he couldn't be completely ruthless and decisive all at once. But he never thought that it was because of his kindness that he would bring him so much trouble.
So when he was about to see the family again, Durin's psychological dynamics were very complicated, and he couldn't tell what it was like. There was a little embarrassment, a little hatred, and a little dazed.
Pushing open the door of the warehouse, a peculiar smell of wood emanated from the warehouse, and a bright light slowly shone into the warehouse, allowing Durin to see the Huon family tied together. His back to the sun was now hidden, and his entire face was hidden in shadows, and the people in the warehouse couldn't see the expression on his face.
