Chapter 1395: Another Murder
After a peaceful night, the guards were exhausted from the night at Lurkaf Manor, and they all went back to rest. However, this does not mean that the guards of Lurcaf Manor will be relaxed during the day, Lurcaf Kopochin is the most important person in the city, and even the officials of the city government dare not be careless, so although there are not as many sheriffs in the manor during the day as there are at night, they are also closely guarded.
That morning, Lulkaf Copperchin had just woken up when he heard the butler calling outside the door.
"Master, master, do you want to come?"
Kopochin's fat body was propped up from the bed, and Leike, who had been lingering for half the night, still hugged his stomach and refused to let go. Kopochin smiled and patted her hand, and Reco let go.
"What's the matter?" asked Copperchin after putting on his clothes.
Ivo, the housekeeper outside the door, said, "Master, a girl from outside the manor has come to you and says that she has something important. ”
"Girl, what girl?" said Kopochin.
The housekeeper said, "It's a little girl, a little girl, only seventeen or eighteen years old." He didn't reply for a while, and then said, "Master, do you want me to let the guards drive her away?"
"Ah, please let her in. ”
"Yes. ”
After the housekeeper left, Lei Ke was jealous in the room, and said angrily: "As soon as I heard that it was a woman, I called her in, and if I wanted to replace it with a man, I would ask someone to drive him away." ”
"Oh, what do you say. Kopochin smiled and sat in front of the bed and hugged Leco's waist: "Didn't you hear from the housekeeper that the people who came here had something to do with me? Besides, she is a little girl, I have never even met her." How can you have other thoughts, don't be too careful. ”
"Hmph, little girl. Lei Ke pouted and said, "Wasn't your third wife a little girl when she married you?" ”
"Look, I'll just say you're cranky. Who in this manor doesn't know that among the four wives, my favorite is you, and I don't want any kind of woman with you. ”
Lei Ke snorted: "Okay, it's nice to say, I don't know if it's true." ”
"Of course it's true. Of course it's true. When did my husband tell you a lie. Believe me, I can swear. ”
Lei could see his solemn appearance, and smiled coquettishly: "Okay, I can't talk about you." Even if you really have a crush on other women, I can't stop them. I just hope you can have me in your heart. ”
"Huh. Why, my heart is full of you. Don't be angry, I'll come back with you when I see you. ”
......
There are quite a few houses in the estate. There is a flat under a red tile building house in front of me, the flat floor is white, a white table and two white chairs are placed, the table is blocked by a parasol close to the fence, under the fence is a garden, and the closest place is planted with a big red flower like blood, which is very gorgeous and moving. Alice was standing by the fence and looking at the flowers in the garden, waiting for the owner of the place to come and meet her.
Before he could get close to Kopochin, he saw Alice looking at the flowers in front of the fence, and he pointed to the butler beside him, "Is that the one who said he wanted to see me?"
"Yes, that's her. ”
Kopochin suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, don't accompany me, tell the guards to go down." ”
"Ah, but the guards want to keep you safe."
Kopochin waved his hand impatiently and said, "If you go down, you can go down, can she still hurt me as a little girl?"
Although the butler Ivo felt that this was inappropriate, he left with the nearby guards as instructed.
After waiting for a long time, Alice felt a little tired, and was about to sit on the chair for a while, when she turned around and saw a fat figure walking towards her.
Talking about walking, it was a bit of a trot, and Copperchin was still gasping for breath as he walked over, and Alice looked him up and down, and asked, "You are the master of the manor, Sir Lurkaugh?"
"Just call me Lurkaf. Copochin gasped, looked at Alice's appearance and his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it the girl who wants to find me?"
"It's me. ”
"Ahh Copperchin nodded, smiled and asked, "I don't know what you call it." ”
Alice hesitated for a moment before she immediately said, "My name is Alice." ”
"Ah, Miss Alice, please take a seat. ”
The two sat down under the parasols, and soon the maid brought chilled drinks and fresh fruits.
Alice looked at the fruit bowl cut and put away, and sprinkled with ice chips, and couldn't help but say, "Sir Sir, you are really unusual here." This plate is full of southern fruits, all of which cannot be eaten here. ”
Kopochin laughed: "What is this, it is very common for a person of my status to enjoy these things." Miss Alice is dressed in a dress, and she doesn't look like an ordinary person. ”
Alice was still wearing a tunic with a wide buckle around her waist, a white silk scarf around her neck, high-shoeed leather boots, and thin gloves with a black cross and white stripes.
Alice smiled, "Oh, yes? I'm wearing a simple outfit." ”
Kopochin said: "Dressing concisely does not mean that people are ordinary, they all say what kind of people wear what kind of clothes, in fact, no matter what kind of clothes they wear, the key is to look at the person who wears the clothes." Although Miss Alice wears a very ordinary black leather suit, with a white silk scarf as a match, if you can wear such a temperament and feeling, I can conclude that you must not have come from an ordinary family, and your family is not only rich, but also very noble. ”
Alice exclaimed, "Mr. Jazz has such sharp eyes that he can even see this." ”
"People who know how to wear clothes don't wear the material of the clothes, but the matching. It's not difficult to wear gorgeous clothes stunningly, but it depends on the person to wear ordinary clothes with an extraordinary temperament. ”
Alice smiled, "Thank you, Sir, for the compliment, let's get down to business." ”
"Miss Alice, please. ”
Alice said: "I have heard that Mr. Jazz has been receiving death threats lately. ”
Copperchin nodded, "That's the case, how do you know?"
Alice said: "Do you need to know about this? Your every move is the news of Xisha City, and such a big incident has happened in your manor, and it has been spread all over the city." ”
Copochin sighed: "I have already told my subordinates not to spread this matter, but I still can't hide it." You have also seen that with such a big industry and such a big family business, almost half of the entire Xisha City is mine, and it is difficult to make a few enemies, not to mention those who are red and jealous of me. Originally, I was used to this kind of thing, and I didn't take it to heart at all, and I don't know how many letters I received like death threats, but this time someone really killed people in my house, committing nine murders, and even the adopted son I raised for many years was unfortunately poisoned, which ...... Alas~!"
Alice reassured, "It's happened. Don't be too sad about it, sir. ”
"I wonder why Alice asked about this, did you come to me for this?"
Alice said, "Actually, I have already been to your manor to see you last night. ”
"Oh?" Copochin was stunned, and stood up in surprise when he thought of what happened last night: "It turned out to be you!"
Alice said, "Don't be nervous, Mr. Jazz, I have no ill will. ”
Korpochin looked at Alice carefully, then slowly sat down and asked curiously, "What is your purpose in sneaking into my manor stealthily at night?"
Alice didn't answer, but said, "I've heard something else. ”
"What's the matter?"
Alice said word by word, "I also heard that you discovered an amazing big secret twenty-seven years ago, and I want to know what that secret is?
Kopochin's pupils shrank, and his face changed drastically.
Alice's eyes narrowed, staring at each other without blinking.
Kopochin found himself out of shape and quickly smiled: "You ...... What are you talking about? I don't know what big secret you're talking about, how can I know where your big secret is. ”
"Is that so?" said Alice, questioningly, but her eyes were aggressive.
Kopochin said angrily: "What do you mean by this, don't you believe what I say? I don't know what you're talking about, if you continue to mess around like this, don't blame me for turning my face." Miss Alice, please go back, I don't have what you want here. ”
"Well, Mr. Sir, I'm not done yet. ”
Kopochin got up and said, "Needless to say, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Come on, send this young lady out. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the butler Ivo hurrying over, looking very flustered. Knowing that something must have happened, Copochin didn't wait for the butler to speak, so he preemptively asked, "What happened?"
The butler said in horror: "Master, Ka...... Mr. Callid died. ”
"What!?" was not trivial, and Kopochin's body went limp, and he fell directly to the ground.
"Master, master, are you alright. Ivo, the butler, hurriedly picked up Kopochin and called for his subordinates to come and help.
With great difficulty, Kopochin got up from the ground, took a sip of the water brought by the butler, and asked, "Stuck ...... Didn't Leader go on a business trip? How could it be...... What the hell is going on, you ...... You make it clear to me!"
The housekeeper Ivo said: "I don't know what the situation is, but Mr. Binks just sent someone to tell me that he got the news from the city government, and it is true. ”
"What! he's dead! he's really dead!" Copperchin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly shouted, "Quick, take me there." ”
