Chapter 1 Who are the heirs of the estate

Next Chapter

A.D. 1931, the turn of spring and summer.

In the bustling city of Dongzhou, several citizens were killed in succession. The Security Bureau couldn't find a clue for a while, and the pressure was huge.

"This case is a bit tricky, do you want to ask Lang Xiaobai to help?" Inspector Wu Changhao of the Security Bureau said to Deputy Inspector Lu Pei.

"Lang Xiaobai? He is nominally a private detective, but isn't he actually a thief Bailang?

This guy has been committing big crimes repeatedly, and I've always wanted to arrest him, but I can't find evidence. Mr. Inspector, you want to ask this thief to help us solve the case? Deputy Inspector Lu Pei glared at Inspector Wu a little puzzled and said.

"I know. I've always wanted to hunt down this thief. But this guy does have some ability, and besides, this case is a little involved with him, so I want to see how he performs this time. Maybe this time we can catch him. Inspector Wu smiled meaningfully.

"Okay, I'll listen to you for now, but, I'll arrest him as soon as I get the chance." Deputy Inspector Lu said.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of that day, Inspector Wu Changhao of the Dongzhou Security Bureau had just returned to the bureau, and as soon as he walked into the door of the detective's office, he asked the secretary:

"Has Agent Wang Lin been here?"

"Yes, it's been here. He seemed to be a little unwell, his face was very bad, and he probably went to the doctor. ”

"I've been investigating for more than a month, and of course I'm tired, so please call him to my office right away.

"Yes...... This is given to you by Wang Lin. The secretary said, taking out a small box of paper and a letter from the drawer, and handed them to the inspector.

The detective quickly took it. I saw that the envelope and carton also had the words "Inspector Wu Changhao personally opened", and in the lower left corner of the envelope there were five small fuchsia characters of "Xinqiao Cafe", which of course were printed by the café.

Inspector Wu Changhao couldn't wait to tear the letter open, stunned, there was only a blank piece of paper in the envelope. He quickly opened the small carton again, and it was full of cotton. At the very bottom of the cotton, it is a hard thing.

"Oh my God! What the hell is this Wang Lin doing?"

Inspector Wu Changhao looked at the hard thing in amazement: a piece of chocolate candy that had been bitten by someone, with tooth marks: four upper and five lower, about 2 to 3 millimeters deep. One glance reveals that the man's teeth are small and crooked, like canine teeth.

"Why is it wrapped in cotton? There must be some reason. ”

After years of experience, his intuition told him that this chocolate had a lot to do with the case. Otherwise, it is Wang Lin's prank.

"How does Agent Wang Lin look different from usual?" The detective pressed the secretary.

"Oh! By the way, forgot to report to you. He was sweating profusely...... And looking left and right, as if they were being intimidated by something, they seemed to be panicked. ”

"Oh?"

He asked for some water to drink, kept wiping his sweat, and didn't say anything. After drinking, he calmed down a little, as if he was about to say something, but he stopped trembling several times. ”

"Oh, that's right. Maybe he's too nervous. And then?"

After a while, he finally put his mouth to my ear and whispered: "In the course of my investigation of this rich man's murder, I learned that this case is very complicated and involves another horrific murder case." It took me a lot of effort to solve it, and the detective certainly didn't know. That was a man who had been murdered a month earlier. ”

"Murder...... Sharp teeth......" Inspector Wu Changhao said to himself while looking at the tooth marks on the chocolate candy. Then he continued to ask: "Is the murder case that Wang Lin said about today last month?"

"Yes, and by the terrible devil. However, his trembling tone and terrifying eyes were very abnormal. Detective, maybe he's having a nervous breakdown, and he looks like he's going crazy. ”

"Crazy? Perhaps. During this time, I'm afraid I'm tired and sick, no matter what, come to him quickly. ”

"Okay." The secretary answered and hurriedly went out.

After a while, someone knocked on the door of the detective's room and entered the room. "I'm so sorry, Detective, I'm late."

"Mr. Lang Xiaobai, it's a pleasure to meet you, please take a seat." Inspector Wu Changhao pointed to the sofa next to him.

Lang Xiaobai, although there is a small character in his name, is actually a man in his thirties, he is wearing a crisp black leather jacket, a burly figure of 1.8 meters, a bronze face, his facial features are as handsome as a carving, and the dark and deep ice eyes under the thick eyebrows are flashing with a light that penetrates people's hearts. Even Inspector Wu Changhao, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, also felt his strong aura.

"Mr. Lang Xiaobai, I came here today to study a matter of inheritance with you, because you have been named as the heir of 20 million gold yuan."

"What? I? Am I the heir to that huge sum of money? ……”

"No, who will inherit it has not yet been determined. After all, it came so suddenly, it needs an explanation before you can understand why. Forty years ago, in a manor in Dongzhou, there lived three sisters surnamed Lu, the eldest sister was Lu Lin, the second sister was Lu Li, and the younger sister Lu Man. and their cousin, whose name is Hu Lan. ”

Later, Lu Lin married a man from country D, Mornington, went to country D, and gave birth to a boy named Mosk. A few years later, the family of three moved from country D to Dongzhou, and since then, Mornington has become wealthy. The couple left Mosk a fortune of 40 million gold dollars. ”

"In this way, Mosk is a rich man. Lang Xiaobai said.

"You also call him Mosk, don't you have a good relationship?"

Lang Xiaobai: "We have been old friends for many years. However, we haven't met since I came back from country D. ”

"Oh! So that's the case, no wonder Mr. Moske named you as the heir to the estate. ”

"Could it be that Mr. Morsk is dead?"

Inspector Wu: "Yes, don't you know? He died suddenly on this day last month. It was said that he had influenza, and the doctor gave him an injection. However, he was suddenly in agony, and even had many brown spots on his body, so that he could not be treated and died. The doctor said it was due to poor sterilization of the syringe. ”

"That's strange, Mr. Mosk is a very famous doctor himself. Moreover, he is quite cautious about the sterilization of syringes, not only has he helped me to fight, but he also often plays himself. In my opinion, the doctor's reason is so unreasonable, there must be other reasons. ”

"However, the doctor has already presented a medical certificate of death."

"There must be a problem...... Don't talk about that. So, what is written in Mosk's suicide note?"

Inspector Wu Changhao opened the drawer, took out a file, and said to Lang Xiaobai: "This is Mr. Mosk's suicide note. It was written by himself when he was sick and bedridden, and was kept by the notary Rourz. Yes, Rourz should be brought in. ”

The inspector rang the bell and ordered the secretary to go to the notary.

When the notary came, the inspector opened the file and began to read:

Mosk Mornington's suicide note

I have an inheritance of 20,000,000 gold dollars, and when I die, please give this property to Aunt Lu Li, or her descendants. If neither Lu Li nor her descendants are alive, then Aunt Lu Man, or her descendants. If none of them are alive, they are given to their mother's cousin Hu Lan or his descendants. The above relatives are not in the world, so they will all be given to my friend Lang Xiaobai. Entrust the Dongzhou City Security Bureau to find an heir, and the cost should be paid by the inheritance.

Moske Mornington

The inspector finished reading the will. Lang Xiaobai said quietly: "So, his heir has been found?"
