"How long will this continue......

On the day of the annex, after Bai Heqing explained in detail how the murderer had Clyde's body "fly" on the power plant in the back mountain, everyone returned to the annex, rested, and gathered in the hall for dinner.

Of course, just like yesterday's situation when Yang Douxin was poisoned, although Bai Heqing quickly cracked the murderer's methods this time, he was unable to completely lock the identity of the murderer because of the lack of key evidence.

"Time and time again, what is the murderer trying to do?" At the dining table, the second young master Li Genguiyang held the knife and fork in his hand tightly and couldn't help but say.

"Isn't that obvious?"

Kevin said with a smile as he cut the steak on his plate:

"Of the original three heirs, two have now been killed, and it is clear that the murderer is coming for that inheritance.

Isn't it a good motive for our university teachers to try to get rid of the other two heirs, so that they can take all the inheritance for themselves? ”

As he spoke, Kevin also raised the fork in his hand and motioned to Kitakamihiko, who was sitting diagonally across from him.

"Well, that's true......" Mei Ling nodded in agreement.

"Two ......"

Kurahashimoto, who had been standing respectfully behind everyone, heard this and couldn't help but want to say something.

"It's okay, Kurahashi."

Kita-Kamihiko raised his hand to stop him, looked at everyone, smiled and said softly:

"What Mr. Kevin said is not unreasonable, even if I don't think so, but as the heir to the inheritance, it is normal to be suspicious of this kind.

There are some things that it is indeed time to explain to everyone. ”

Kita-Kamihiko's words fell, and everyone's eyes fell on him, and he met everyone's gaze and looked at Shirakawa Kiyoshi and Mary, who were still quietly moving their chopsticks.

"Besides, our two detectives here are very good, even if I don't say it, the two of them will investigate it sooner or later."

Hearing his words, Bai Heqing finally put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked up at him.

"Let's start with Kurahashi, me and Kurahashi used to be a master-servant relationship."

"Master servant?!"

Mei Ling was slightly surprised, and the two young masters of the Ligon family, who were also sitting at the dining table, were even more surprised.

"What the hell is going on?"

"It's not the first time I've met on this island, fifteen years ago, Kurahashi used to be a housekeeper at my father's house in Singapore." Kita-Uehiko explained.

"Is that so?" The eldest young master, Ligan Guiyang, suddenly realized when he heard this, and nodded.

"Fifteen years ago, just after the end of the war, the British government launched the redevelopment of Singapore, and the location of my house was in the way of the redevelopment plan.

Faced with the Singapore authorities who forced our family to move out, my parents have been trying to negotiate the matter, but ......"

Speaking of this, Kita-Uehiko looked gloomy and smiled wryly.

I don't know if that's why my father was kidnapped and disappeared shortly after that, and my mother committed suicide because of her excessive grief.

Suddenly, I was orphaned and adopted by my current adoptive parents and returned to Japan, while Kurahashi was picked up by my father's friend, Mr. Eijiro Tone......"

"I've been a butler in this annex for fifteen years since then." Kurahashi Motoaki said at the right time.

"After this incident, Mr. Eijiro Tone has also been searching for his missing father, and I have heard that Mr. Eijiro Tone has tried all kinds of ways to protect our family's old house in Singapore as much as possible.

I think it was because of these previous origins that Mr. Eijiro Tone chose me as one of the heirs of the estate, but ......"

Speaking of this, Kita-Uehiko stopped, he looked up at everyone, and said with a firm gaze:

"At this point, I don't want to inherit that inheritance anymore."

"Mr. Kazuhiko......" Second Young Master Tone Kosuke looked at him stunned.

"That's what you think?" Mei Ling also asked curiously.

"That's right."

Nodding his head, Kita-Uehiko's gaze remained firm.

"I'm so happy to see Kurahashi here again, and as long as I wait for help to arrive, I'll just leave the island and never come back.

So, I hope you don't think that I killed Mr. Young and Mr. Clyde in order to monopolize those inheritances. ”

With that, Kita-Uehiko stood up from his seat and took a deep breath.

"That's all I have to say, sorry, I'd like to go back to my room and get some rest......"

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving everyone in the hall, each recalling what he had just said.

"I really didn't expect this to happen to Mr. Kazuhiko......" After a short silence, Mei Ling spoke first, her face still with that smiling expression.

"Do you think what he said is true or false?" Kevin was still eating the steak on his plate with a composure on his plate.

"What Young Master Kazuhiko said is true." Kurahashi Akira replied.

"Fifteen years ago, my father suddenly stopped writing and brought my brother and me from Singapore to the UK."

The second young master, Tone Kosuke, folded his hands in front of his mouth, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"My father told us that he had found the 'legacy of the British Empire' and that there was no need to continue writing, which I actually always regretted, after all, I have always liked my father's ...... since I was a child"

"The legacy of the British Empire? What an exaggerated title......" Mei Ling teased.

"Hmph, what's the use of being famous?!"

The eldest young master, Ligan Guiyang, who had been silent, couldn't help but hammer the table hard, with an angry expression on his face.

"It's our father, but in the end, he didn't even leave us a penny!"

"Well, don't get excited, young master." Kevin glanced at him and said with a smile: "The old man always has his own ideas, maybe ...... Is it Mr. Eijiro Tone who thinks that this inheritance is actually not so 'clean', so he doesn't want to leave it to the two young masters? ”

"Oh?" As soon as he finished speaking, Mei Ling suddenly turned her head to look at him, and her tone was meaningful, "It sounds like our Mr. Kevin seems to know some inside information about this batch of inheritances?" ”

Not only her, but several people in the hall, including Bai Heqing and Mary, all looked over.

"I can't say anything, it's just some premature speculation." Facing everyone's eyes, Kevin smiled faintly, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.

"Okay, I'm done eating, it's almost time for me to go back and rest, everyone eat slowly."
