0348 There is a mole
"Didn't you break up your friendship, why did you try so hard to excuse him?" asked Borg Langdon as he stared at Wednesday with blazing eyes when he heard Wednesday's words.
Wednesday snorted, "It's true that we're breaking up, but it's not just his own business, it's my own safety, and if I can't clear my name today, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get out of this gate, right?"
Borg Langdon coughed lightly, "Mr. Tolan is serious," and said, "I brought you, sir, to ask you what you said last night, and was there anything unusual about him at the time?"
Wednesday shook his head and said, "There is nothing abnormal," he said with a frown and an effort to recall, "He came to me last night just to apologize to me, to let go of his suspicions, and then invited me to a Chinese restaurant to eat something, and he didn't say anything, and then I left halfway through the meal, and I don't know what happened after that." ”
"Can you elaborate on that?" said Borg Langdon, though he asked, but his face was stern.
Wednesday nodded, and then said: "I have been practicing since I went back yesterday afternoon, and when I was about to have dinner, Bolton came to the door and said that he had something to tell me, that he wanted to go outside, and when he got to the door, he said that he wanted to apologize to me, that he should not have introduced me to you so recklessly, and then he wanted me to drink, so he invited me to a Chinese restaurant. ”
Speaking of this, Wednesday made an effort to remember, "But when I arrived at the restaurant, he didn't talk much, but just invited me to drink and eat," and said angrily, "But after half of the meal, he said that he did it for my own good, and so on, and I got angry when I heard this, because I was most annoyed by this kind of thing." What he said was for my own good, in fact, it was just his self-righteousness, so I was very angry, and I left after eating half of it, and I really don't know what happened after that. ”
"What do you eat?"
"Corn with pine nuts, pheasant meatballs, braised steak and cod in sauce. Wednesday frowned and said, "This also has something to do with his disappearance?" said and looked at Borg Langdon suspiciously, "No, he's just a fire mage, he can't fly or hide, how can he hide it from your people if he wants to go somewhere, not to mention that you didn't have people around him?"
Borg Langdon smiled wryly. "It is true that he is not missing, but died suddenly. ”
"Dead?" Wednesday froze for a moment, then shook his head vigorously, "Mr. Langdon, don't use these little tricks to test me again, Bolton definitely won't be from Constan, whether he's missing or dead, he's not from Constan," he said with a long breath. "If it's just missing, the entire province is now searching. I believe that people can still be found, and if they die, then there are corpses, and see how they died, isn't it all clear?"
"The cause of his death is strange," Borg Langdon sighed. "We still don't know how he died. ”
Wednesday froze at this, and stared at Borg Langdon with a grin, "You're kidding, aren't you? ”
"I wish I was just joking, but unfortunately not. It's true," Borg Langdon seems, convinced of his innocence, "you can look at his body and piggyback on how he died." ”
Wednesday frowned, "Where's the body? ”
Burton's body was still in place, on his bed, but his face was hideous, a little swollen, and there was some dirty blood in his ears and nose, and there were no other wounds to be seen. Seeing this, Wednesday blurted out: "This is poisoning." ”
"Poisoning?" asked Borg Langdon suspiciously, "how do you know?"
Wednesday took a deep breath, "I saw this when he was with Mr. Grund Hill, and Mr. Hill once had a mysterious old man who was very good at it, but ......"
"But what?" asked Borg Langdon hurriedly seeing what Wednesday looked like.
Wednesday let out a long sigh, "But the old man was rescued by Wednesday, and Wednesday's strength didn't seem to be very strong at that time," he said and said with a wry smile: "A year later, Wednesday came back and killed Hill's father and son." ”
Borg Langdon had also heard about the Hill father and son, but he didn't expect it to be related to Wednesday. Thinking of Wednesday's awesomeness, he hurriedly asked, "Then you mean that Wednesday killed Mr. Bolton?"
Wednesday shook his head, "I don't know about this, although Wednesday may have a similar poison, but with his strength, he doesn't need such a means to kill Mr. Bolton, but it can't be ruled out that it has something to do with Wednesday, after all, the people who can make these poisons, I also know the mysterious old man and Wednesday." ”
Borg Langdon let out a long breath, "So, it must have been done by the agent on Constan's side," and said viciously, "We have a mole here." ”
Wednesday nodded, "I feel that it should be the same, but now there is no goal at all, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the other party, and even if it is found, what can it do? ”
"Well, sir," Borg Langdon nodded when he heard this, and judging from his salutation and attitude, he had basically ruled out Wednesday's suspicion.
In fact, when Borg Langdon took Wednesday to see Burton's body, Wednesday's suspicion was ruled out. First of all, there was no time to commit the crime on Wednesday, Bolton died in the middle of the night last night, and he hasn't been anywhere since he returned yesterday evening on Wednesday, as Borg Langdon himself knows.
The other is that what Wednesday said is almost the same as what Borg Langdon himself knew, such as the conflict between Wednesday and Burton, and the Chinese restaurant that Burton likes to eat. There are also some details that Wednesday said, such as going to the Chinese restaurant to eat was taken by Bolton on Wednesday, one is that there are pedestrians on the road to testify, and it is indeed Bolton walking in front at that time, and the other point is that Bolton usually likes to eat at that restaurant.
Of course, there is another point, which is what he said about his experience with Bolton in the restaurant on Wednesday, such as the two of them not talking, such as Wednesday throwing down the chopsticks and leaving in the middle of eating, etc.
There is no difference between so much detail and what Wednesday said himself, and Wednesday's reaction to questioning and bluffing is also very normal, there are no flaws and suspicions, so Borg Langdon no longer doubts Wednesday in his heart. Especially when the cause of Bolton's death was analyzed on Wednesday, Borg Langdon blushed a little because of his suspicions, because if Wednesday was really the murderer, then he would not have been able to tell the cause of death so clearly, and everyone had to be vigilant.
But how could Borg Langdon have imagined this on Wednesday. Burton's death was completely expected on Wednesday, especially those details, which were specially designed for people to show on Wednesday, because he knew that there must be a Bog Langdon spy by his side, so he deliberately followed Burton to a Chinese restaurant to eat, and there was an incident where he threw chopsticks and left in the middle of eating.
After knowing the ending, the design process, this lie is naturally very simple to round, just like the archer shoots the arrow first and then makes a central dot around the arrow, which is naturally the ten rings of arrows. Designing the process of action after knowing the results of the action in advance is naturally more seamless.
As for how Wednesday quietly poisoned Bolton, it was actually simpler, and the opportunity was when the two of them were eating. As Bolton scooped up half a spoonful of pine nut corn and put it in his mouth, Wednesday violently shook the table with internal force, causing Bolton's arm to slip, and Wednesday threw a wax pill into Bolton's spoon while he helped him.
When Bolton ate the pine nut corn in his mouth, Wednesday opened his mouth without waiting for Bolton to chew, causing Bolton to speak. In this case, Bolton could only swallow the food in his mouth, and the wax pills were swallowed by Bolton together. In order to make the wax balls look inconspicuous, Wednesday also specially ordered two dishes, pine nut corn and pheasant meatballs.
And the wax pills were made early on Wednesday for use in these situations. The wax pill is naturally wrapped in Li Yuming's desperate dispersion. In order to give full play to the effect of these poisons, Wednesday deliberately packed those desperate powders in his hand in wax pills, each wax pill is smaller than soybeans, only slightly larger than pine nuts.
After seeing Bolton swallow the wax pill, Wednesday immediately left the table, one to give people the impression that he left angry, and the other was worried that the wax pill would break early, so Bolton only had fifteen minutes to live, and the sooner he left, the lower the suspicion. Fortunately, the wax pill did play a certain role, and it didn't break until after midnight, and it was at that time that the desperate scatter attacked, successfully helping Wednesday clear most of the suspicions.
Borg Langdon arranged for another autopsy to be performed, and it was determined that it was indeed a toxic episode. After seeing the results, Borg Langdon said to everyone regretfully: "It's a pity that Mr. Burton said that he would help me achieve great things," and then instructed Washworth Roy: "Arrange for someone to collect Mr. Burton's body, and I will hold a solemn funeral, so that Mr. Burton can leave with peace of mind." ”
"But there is a certainty, we must scrutinize it strictly, and dig up the murderer for me, and I will never allow this to happen again," Borg Langdon said through gritted teeth. (To be continued......)
