"Young people now...... It's kind of scary! ”

Sitting in Camille's carriage, Maltz let out such an exclamation, but his eyes involuntarily looked at his partner.

Or did you not escape the gaze of death after all? ’

But then when Arthur looked up, the sheriff coughed lightly,

"What happened after we left?"

Maltz asked.

For in the morning, met Will. Kos and Chermi, the sheriff will naturally not forget, and whether it is Cermy's yelling or Kos's refusal to back down, the sheriff will remember it vividly.

"Will. Kos and Chermi were momentarily calmed down by Sheriff Maltz's 'persuasion,' and at noon they had dinner together at home.

But just after lunch, the host took the young lady to the second floor. When Kos and Chermi returned to the small hall to wait, the tragedy happened.

Will. Kos kills Chermi.

The young man was still holding a dagger in his hand when he was found.

Cermi was long gone. ”

The old butler replied at once.

"Who found Will. Kos kills? ”

"It's me and Miss!

After being educated by her master on the second floor, Miss has decided that she wants to talk to Will. The two young men, Kos and Chemir, made it clear that the three of them had been friends since childhood, and had no other feelings.

However, when I knocked on the door of the small hall, the door did not open, and the inside was locked.

After that, I opened the door to the small hall with the spare key.

Then I saw Chermi lying in a pool of blood. Kos slumped on the couch.

I didn't let the young lady and the servants into the hall, and I just checked that Chermi wasn't breathing before exiting the hall. ”

The old butler recounted the situation in detail.

Arthur listened as he took out the baked potatoes from the picnic basket, peeled them off, and ate them with a mouthful of sugar and a mouthful of cream.

Lunch was interrupted.

That doesn't mean lunch can't be served.

Taking out a baked potato and handing it to Maltz, the sheriff did not refuse - from morning to afternoon, it was enough to make any normal person feel hungry.

"I'm so sorry.

If you don't mind, allow me to entertain both of you when it's over. ”

Old Butler Aur looked apologetic.

Arthur didn't refuse, and after swallowing the roasted potatoes in his mouth, he tore off a piece of roast beef and put it in his mouth, asking as he continued to eat.

"Will. Did Kos admit to killing Chermi? ”

"Nope!

Will at the time. There is something strange about Koss in a strange state.

He looked a little dazed, as if he had just woken up, but as if he was frightened, and the whole person was in a trance. ”

The old butler reminisced about the time when Will. There was something strange in Kos's eyes.

"Did he say anything?"

Arthur asked after handing Maltz a portion of the salad and smoked chicken thighs in the basket, and then stuffing the roast beef belonging to Maltz with salt and black pepper in his mouth.

"He said, it's not him!"

The old butler smiled wryly.

From the old days, the old butler was convinced that Will. What Coase said.

This young man is definitely not a fierce man.

However, the small hall is locked from the inside, and the windows are closed. Kos and Chermi, as a result, Chermi died.

How does this make him trust the other party?

And, more importantly, the dagger was still Will. Kos's.

Everything is indicated, Will. Kos is the murderer.

Tons and tons of tons!

After Arthur drank the sweetened fruit soup, the carriage stopped in front of 22 White Bird Street, and Arthur stepped out of the carriage and burped directly.

Two pounds of roast beef, a whole smoked chicken thigh, a salad, and three fist-sized baked potatoes, plus a pot of sweetened fruit soup were enough to satisfy Arthur's stomach.

Maltz, you say?

When you are older, your digestive system will be bad, so eating less is good for your body.

Arthur silently praised his care for his partner's body.

"How?"

Maltz leaned over and asked.

"Go in and have a look."

Arthur said and walked towards the villa.

Maltz motioned for Simon to go in with two patrolmen, and the remaining four guards, just in case, stood guard at the door of 22 White Bird Street and the door of the villa.

"Mr. Credos!"

A cry of surprise came from Linda. Camille.

The round-faced girl who loved cats walked quickly in front of Arthur, the adoration on her face was undisguised, but the girl was not blind enough to be desperate.

"Mr. Credos, Will. Kos doesn't dare to kill, please help him. ”

I don't dare.

It's not that it won't.

Arthur looked at him in surprise.

"Will fainted - he only told me about it, and I had told it to keep it a secret, but I had to say it in order to save him.

Will, who was in a blood sickness, would definitely choose other methods even if he wanted to kill Chermi, and using a dagger was the most stupid.

Moreover, he will not choose when he and Chermi are together. ”

Linda. Camille said.

Although the tone was a little hurried, there was a surprise in Arthur's eyes when he looked at the other party - the impression that the other party gave Arthur before was that he didn't look very smart and was very aggressive, but now it seems that he should be clever and subtle.

'Should I say that it is worthy of the blood of the Credos family?' ’

Arthur looked at Linda. Camille's black eyes couldn't help but sigh.

The young 'medium' then looked at Lady Camille.

Even if there was a dead person in the villa, the lady maintained her demeanor and looked at Arthur's inquiring gaze, and the other party took the initiative to walk towards the small hall.

"I'm sorry for this to happen, but I hope you, Mr. Credos, will be able to catch the murderer."

Speaking of this, the lady silently added another sentence in her heart.

'In your grandfather's name! ’

At the door of the small hall, everyone except the Shire police station was stopped by Simon.

After telling the two patrolmen to keep an eye on the place and not to let people break in, Simon entered the small hall - the new midshipman stared at Arthur without blinking.

He thinks he can learn more from his advisors.

As for Maltz?

Maltz was a good boss and a respectable sheriff.

emmm……

That's all.

Maltz scanned the small hall, and quickly reconciled everything with what the old butler had told before—Will. Kos was tied, and the murder weapon dagger was on the desk.

It's clear that Will. It is true that Kos is an acquaintance.

But when suspected of being the murderer, Camille's family knows what to do, instead of blindly believing in the so-called acquaintances.

Maltz observes that Will. The moment Coase saw Arthur, his body struggled, and he opened his mouth to think about something, but in the end he chose to give up.

Obviously Will. Kos knows its partners.

And the look just now is that he thinks his partner can save the other party.

'Does Will. Is Coase really not a murderer?

But this kind of two-person secret room is not Will. Who will Kos be? ’

Maltz thought to himself, and his eyes involuntarily looked at Arthur.

Similarly, the eyes of the others in the villa unconsciously looked at Arthur.

Obviously, the rest of the villa didn't believe Will from the bottom of their hearts. Kos will kill.

They all hope that the young 'psychic medium' can work miracles.

Especially Linda. Camille put her hands into fists at her lips, apparently praying.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Arthur paced in the small hall.

His steps were slow, but his face was indifferent, and a sense of calmness arose.

When he reached his desk, he stopped and tilted his head slightly, as if listening.

After a moment, he whispered to himself—

"So that's what happened!"
