Chapter 136: Investigation of Identity
"Something else?" Chris asked, "What is it about?" ”
"On the identity of the deceased in the second murder." Mill replied.
"Identity? Didn't Walter Rouge tell you? Chris thought Mill knew.
"Since I took over again, it was just the first time." Mill looked into Chris's eyes and whispered, "Martin and I went to Lafayette last night. ”
"You two don't have to go there, it's a waste of time, don't forget, Mir, we've been there and we haven't gotten anything." Chris thinks that Mill and Martin are doing too much to look at the corpse scars.
"No, Chris, I made a big discovery this time." Mir said excitedly, "Do you know the knife I'm talking about? ”
"Scher's cutlass?" He asked.
"Yes, especially the three bodies with obvious knife marks, except for Martin and Jacques." "I'm guessing that they must be the ones the murderer hates," said Mill. ”
"Hmm... Most people will have such a knife, which is equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack. Chris thought for a moment and said.
"Martin said something similar." Mill said: "However, from the time I revived Jacques, I had a vague feeling that the murderers were suitable for burying them alive, and killed them. ”
Listening to Mir's words, Chris asked, "Are you sure?" Mill. ”
"It is certain that the method is suffocation, and it is definitely not some other means of murder." Mill recalled: "I had observed layers of soil, with the surface of the soil above and the swamps below, and the murderer was skillfully using the laws of geology. ”
"I guess I understand, you mean that the identity of the murderer is most likely someone who grew up in the mountains of New Orleans?" Chris said as he touched his chin.
Mir nodded: "That's right, it also includes those who moved here very early, so I need you to help me investigate, screen out these people, and screen them one by one." ”
"Also, you need to tell me the identities of those three." Mill continued.
"I'm sorry, I don't know who they are right now."
"OMG! Chris, what the hell are you doing? Didn't Walter Ruhe tell you? Or are you hiding something for him? ”
"Don't get me wrong, Mir, I really don't know." Chris spread his hands and showed his innocence.
"Okay, then you go and investigate, their identities are very critical." "I even guessed that they should be the same as Ian, and they could be one of the politicians," Mir said. ”
"Mill, don't jump to conclusions." Chris thinks their identities are definitely not simple: "I am very grateful to you, Mir, that you have overturned the ridiculous conclusions I have made, and can give Governor Amos Stoddard an account." ”
"No, Chris, don't tell him just yet."
"Why? Isn't that something to be happy about? ”
"I don't want to disappoint Uncle Amos." Mir dissuaded: "When you catch the real murderer, let him know." ”
"I see, Mir, I'll take care of this."
"Don't forget about the knife, I'll be waiting for you in the hotel."
Chris smiled and said, "Put the heart in your belly." ”
Chris was just about to leave when he was stopped by Mir: "Wait a minute, Chris. ”
Chris asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I've heard that the murder seems to have something to do with Paulina."
