Chapter 82: Detective Leto
When John Baxter returned to Baxter Manor unharmed, the Baxter gang breathed a sigh of relief. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Originally, under the auspices of Antonio, they were all in a state of combat readiness, but since it has been proved that the Holt company does not have much thought about them, then they can continue to enjoy their supremacy with peace of mind, and they don't have to work hard.
As soon as the pressure was gone, the gossip immediately rose. Antonio came back in the car of a peerless beauty, a fact that hundreds of eyes up and down Baxter Manor saw. The woman named Leto is not only extremely beautiful, but also has a temperament that is by no means comparable to that vulgar powder, and driving a Ferrari proves that she is not from an ordinary family.
Does it mean something that such a beautiful woman returns to Baxter Manor with the handsome and dashing young Antonio?
As we all know, Antonio has never even had an official girlfriend. Suddenly bringing such a beautiful woman into Baxter Manor may be the first time in so long a time that his young master wants to give his sincere object. The family background is right, and the appearance is also a golden boy and girl, so she is completely worthy of it.
The development of facts does not seem to be divorced from their speculation. After Leto entered the manor, he has been with Antonio, whether it is Antonio's orders to prepare for war or deal with documents, she is inseparable, and Antonio is also acquiesced in this, no matter how you look at it, it is the demeanor of a young grandmother.
Even shortly after John returned to the manor, the two joined forces to see John. Many people think that maybe this is Antonio's intention to announce his relationship to his father and seek consent?
It seems that the next boss lady of the Baxter Gang is about to be released......
At first, seeing Antonio leading Leto in, John also thought that his son had brought his girlfriend to see him, and said with a smile: "What, my new girlfriend?" ”
Antonio shook his head and said, "I really want her to be my girlfriend or even my wife, but now is not the time to talk about this." I brought her here because I had something very important to report. ”
John asked with some surprise, "Oh? What's the matter? The movements of the Holt Company, or the whereabouts of the Rojos family? ”
Leto laughed, "No, I just have a conjecture about the mysterious ball and want you to hear about it." ”
John's face sank: "Mystery Ball? How do you know this? "This is a secret that only the core personnel of the Baxter Gang know!
Leto pointed at Antonio: "Mr. Antonio, he was so kind that he gave me a full account of the Baxter gang and San Miguel." ”
John looked at Antonio speechlessly, only to see Antonio's face slightly red, and he turned his gaze to the side, not daring to look at him.
Tsk, I'm still too young to see a beautiful woman...... Is it okay to hand over the Baxter Gang to him at this time? John sighed darkly.
But now that the girl knows about the Mystery Ball, looking at Antonio's attitude towards her, she must not agree to kill her, so she has to acquiesce to this fact. If she becomes a young lady in the future, let this level of intelligence leakage be spared. If you can't make it, it's not too late to kill.
John asked helplessly, "Is that the matter of the remnants of the Rojos family?" Where have you seen them? ”
Antonio turned his head: "No, father, I'm afraid that the Mystery Ball is not necessarily in the hands of the remnants of the Rojos family, and the two things may not be equated. ”
"How?"
"For specific speculation, let's leave it to Miss Leto." Antonio looked at Leto.
"Actually, it's very simple, I heard Mr. Antonio tell me about your victory over the Rojos family on the way here, and I thought it was a little strange. According to common sense, if the mystery ball was snatched by the Rojos family's dogs jumping over the wall, shouldn't they immediately prepare for all kinds of defenses and escapes, and ask the Holt company for help? Why did you look like you had succeeded in a surprise attack, and couldn't organize a good defense at all? Letosith asked.
"This ......"
John realized that he had never paid attention to this before. In the past six days, he has been busy collecting the market of the Rojos family, recruiting rebels + recruiting new people, and beware of the Holt company, which is very busy. Occasionally, when I think of the battle that brought him the glory he has today, I just think that Consvilo's decision to send them troops is really very decisive and well done.
Now that I think about it, it's a bit weird. The Rojos family snatched the Mystery Ball, so they should have expected the Baxter gang to retaliate. They didn't do it seamlessly, even Rubio's body was left on the scene, and they still expected the Baxter Gang not to know that they did it, didn't it seem a little too brain-dead?
John, who has been fighting against the Rojos family for so many years, knows very well that the Rojos brothers are by no means such brainless people, otherwise he would have killed them a long time ago.
Wait, so ......
"Could it be that the Mystery Orb wasn't stolen by the Rojos family?" John asked.
"It's not just the Rojos family who can know and steal the Mystery Orb in San Miguel, so why do you only keep your eyes on them? Is it a mindset? Leto asked with a smile.
John hesitated and said, "This ...... Because Rubio's body was at the scene, it ......"
Leto looked at the imbecile child: "There are no three hundred taels of silver here." If I were from the Rojos family, I would never have left you with such an obvious clue if I had blown Rubio's body to shreds with a bomb when I left. On the other hand, since such an obvious clue is left here, isn't the idea of misleading the investigation obvious? ”
John frowned, "You mean, someone pretended to be the Rojos family and stole the Mystery Ball?" Could it be the Holt Company? ”
After all, the Mystery Ball may have been circulated in the ruins, and besides, it has such a wonderful use, and the Holt Company must be very interested in it, and there are very good reasons to want to get it. And in addition to the Rojos family, if you can plant a traitor in the Baxter gang, and you can also kill the forces of Rubio and Isidro, near San Miguel, there is only the Holt company.
Leto shook his head: "If the Holt company wants that ball, it's good to find you to exchange it in a dignified manner, and it's not too late to consider robbing it if the negotiation fails, so why make this decision directly?" They are businessmen, and unlike you, their way of thinking is not so shady. Those who will do this can only come up with enough benefits to exchange for you, and they are determined to win this ball. ”
John asked, "Who could that be?" ”
"Well, I don't know. But if you'd ask me to investigate the bodies of Rubio, Isidro, and the guards a little bit, as well as the scene at the time, maybe I'll find some discoveries. After all, I'm Detective Leto. Leto said with a dark smile on his face.
"Detective? Well, I haven't heard much of you detective. John looked at her cautiously, "But the stakes are high, and we do need some different perspectives. - Antonio, you take her to investigate this matter, as much as possible, but not to reveal more secrets. ”
Since her son is interested in her, let's create more space for the two of them to be alone, and don't be a light bulb yourself. John thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, Father!" Antonio replied, then made a gesture of invitation to Leto, "Then, please come with me." ”
He led Leto all the way to the morgue at Baxter Manor. Originally, this kind of corpse was supposed to be cremated after cutting off the head for public display, but after defeating the Rojos family, the Baxter gang has been very busy, so they forgot about this stubble and kept this corpse along with the corpse of Isidro and the corpse of the eight guards.
Leto put on his gloves, lifted the cloth covering the corpse, and examined Rubio's body from head to toe. Antonio's skillful movements amazed him, and he originally thought that Leto was just casually saying that he was a detective, but he didn't expect that he really had some ability. At the very least, the proficiency in examining corpses is no less than that of Baxter's own forensic doctors.
"It's true that the fire entered the body and died, and there are traces of fighting with ice superpowers. Logically speaking, it is not impossible to say that Isidro and that Lin Yuedong were killed together, but this is just one of the possibilities. Leto noted.
"What else is possible? San Miguel does have a few flame abilities, but Isidro is the only one who can fight Rubio. Antonio asked, puzzled.
"Who told you that Rubio died after fighting Isidro? On the side of the Rojos family, didn't they say that he disappeared after the original battle by the river? ”
"That's just a smokescreen from the Rojos family......"
"After defeating the Rojos family, did you find any evidence that this was a smokescreen? Besides, what's the point of putting this kind of smoke screen? Obviously your own strength has been hit hard, and you still tell the lie that Rubio is missing, isn't it tantamount to urging you to attack? If your strength is greatly reduced, you should do the opposite and exaggerate your own combat power to prevent you from attacking. Leto said disdainfully.
Sun Bin reduced the focus to induce Pang Juan to attack, and Yu Xu increased the focus to deter the Qiang soldiers from pursuing, and the usage and purpose of the two strategies were completely different. No matter how stupid the Rojos family is, when their own strength has dropped greatly, they still use the burn reduction method to induce the Baxter gang to attack, is it because they are afraid that they will not die fast enough?
"That'...... So what's going on here? "Antonio was completely confused this time. Didn't Rubio die in battle with Isidro? So when exactly did he die? What about the injuries of the flames?
"It's very simple, as long as you beat him half to death first, and then grab a random flame ability person and burn the corpse, you can cause such an effect. Or, simply find a person with a powerful flame ability from somewhere else, maybe a little weaker than Isidro, but if you cooperate with Lin Yuedong, you can also exert a strong power and overpower Rubio. Leto said casually.
"I see, it can be like this!" Antonio only felt as if he had been enlightened, "That means that someone deliberately faked the scene?" ”
"I'm not conclusive, but it's a possibility. Let me see Isidro's body. Leto's face brought that dark smile again.
Lin Yuedong...... Hehe, no wonder he retreated with a blow, and it seems that he recognized me. It's just that you don't care too much about your advantages, you obviously put on a hood, and you have to walk around with your real name, won't you completely lose the meaning of concealment?
If you don't care about your own strengths, you will turn them into disadvantages. Let me tell you this!
