045: Santa Fe's headlines

"Rojo, did you buy the newspaper today, my God, someone assassinated Mr. Sherman last night."

The next day, early in the morning, Rojo made a cup of coffee, sat on the balcony and blew the wind, reading the ink-smelling newspaper and listening to a phone call from Jeriel.

He took a sip of coffee and replied in surprise: "I just read the newspaper, I can't believe it." ”

Now the first page of the newspaper is almost full of news about Sherman's murder, many of which have begun to discuss conspiracy theories, but the news does not reveal too much information, only mentioning Sherman's murder, it is clear that the Sherman family does not want to reveal more information to outsiders, but many people speculate that Grell did it, and also mentioned that one of Greer's factories was damaged last night, and there was a suspected fire at the scene, in short, there is no doubt that Grell became the biggest suspect.

"Alas, when we returned to the manor last night, poor Mr. Sherman was lying in a pool of blood, and he had no body temperature, and he was blind with his eyes open, and Mrs. Sherman was crying silently, and the old lady fainted several times, and the murderer was so cruel that he did not even leave a full face for Mr. Sherman, and made a big hole in his forehead."

Jerill sighed and said: "Now the family has no clue, they have checked all the surveillance tapes, and they have not seen the slightest clue, and from the means of the assassin, he is very good at using knives, what is even more strange is that those guards did not even have a chance to shoot from beginning to end, all of them were pierced in the throat, the scene in the hall on the first floor of the villa is shocking, there is blood everywhere, even a pile of blood can be squeezed out of the sofa, I dare not imagine how tragic the scene was at that time." ”

"Do you have any suspicions?"

Rojo calmly flipped through the newspaper and asked casually.

"At present, the only thing I can think of is Greel, now the family is very angry, they are also angry with you, they think that you did not kill Greel, it is the biggest mistake, otherwise it would not have caused such a tragedy, but to be honest, I will tell you quietly."

On the other end of the phone, Jerill lowered his voice: "The reason why Mr. Sherman is where he is today is completely self-inflicted, if he chooses to reconcile, it will be better for everyone, after all, it is not a hundred years ago, everyone is a civilized person, not a barbarian, and we are not Africans who drink blood." ”

"I agree with you, and everyone should know that the reason why I didn't do it yesterday is that the hotel has a power outage, and the entire banquet site is full of security personnel, and Sherman asked me to assassinate Grell on that occasion, which is no different from sending me to hell, and no one can escape from the hotel.

As soon as I do it, within half a minute, the FBI and the strips will definitely surround the entire hotel. ”

Rojo recalls returning to the hotel yesterday, and he spent a lot of effort trying to finally climb in through the ventilation duct to avoid being caught by the security guards, but fortunately no one noticed him leaving.

After the power was restored and the lights came on, Rojo had already returned to his original seat, and the Sherman lackeys who were watching in the box also saw this scene, and they became alibi.

However, judging from Jerill's words, there seems to be no one in the Sherman family who suspects him, which also saves him a lot of trouble.

"I told you to leave a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't have been forced to do such a thing, and now you have a chance to leave, Ferrance. Sherman, the eldest son of Mr. Sherman, now that he is the new head of the family, he is expected to abandon some of the former leaders, you should be on the list, and, I found a strange place. ”

Jeryll's voice was lowered a little more, "I found that Ferrance didn't seem to be too sad about Mr. Sherman's death, when he saw the body yesterday, his face was expressionless at first, and it took about a while before he turned his back and his shoulders began to tremble, no one saw his expression, but he should be crying, and then he sat down on the big chair that only Mr. Sherman could sit on, covered his face, and let all of us out of the study, and then he stayed in it for a long time, but after he came out, he had no expression on his face."

And now it's only the second day, and he has begun to put all his mind on the family business, letting his subordinates handle Mr. Sherman's funeral, and even the murderer's affairs, he doesn't seem to care much, and it is all handled by outsiders, you know, it is his father's ......"

"Grell is not dead, you destroyed his factory again, and now the Grell family will definitely launch a counterattack again, Ferrance has too much to do, to be in charge of the family's business operations, he can't focus on solving the case and the funeral."

Rojo smiled silently, as he had guessed, Ferrance couldn't wait to take over the family business, he had long wished that Sherman would go to hell, and now that his dream had come true, he didn't care what was going on.

Now for Ferrance, the top priority is to solve the conflict with the Grell family, and the murderer of his father is very hidden, and he can't find any clues, he can completely shift the blame to the Grell family, so that not only will it not make people look incompetent, but also make the family members more involved in this war.

However, Jeryl said before that the best way is to reconcile, and now that the two families are both defeated, reconciliation is the best way to recuperate, and to find an opportunity to bite the enemy's throat is the best way.

"That's right, but I always think it's too strange, forget about it, but you can finally leave this time, without Mr. Sherman, those in the family will not restrict your travel.

To be honest, Mr. Sherman told me before that I couldn't let you go. ”

Jeriel sighed and said: "But now that he is gone, everyone is thinking about Ferrance, they are only thinking about competing for favor in Ferrance, the new family leader, representing the new pattern of the family, every time there is a big change, some core members are afraid of being marginalized, everyone is afraid of this......"

"You're not leaving?"

Rojo took a sip of his coffee, "You're also from Sherman. ”

"I've been in the family for almost six years, and I haven't gone much when I'm gone, and I don't have anything else to do but do it. Sherman can also be Mr. Sherman. ”

Jeryl on the other end of the computer fell on the bed and sighed, "I hope he will reuse me, to be honest, I'm just a delivery person, and I can't be marginalized because of these things." ”

"I can't help much, though."

The two didn't talk for long, and Rojo quickly hung up, "But anyway, good luck, my friend." ”

"Good luck too."
