In the manor, Kopochin stayed alone in his room, his frown tightened and his eyes showed a hint of panic: "Why did she know about that incident twenty-seven years ago? That thing is so secret, she can't possibly know." But...... In this morning's conversation, she mentioned that secret from twenty-seven years ago, and she said ...... Is that what you are talking about?"

The more Copochin thought about it, the more he felt that Alice was hinting at the incident that he had hidden deep in his heart, and he gasped coldly: "I have been feeling uneasy recently, and I have a faint ominous premonition in my heart, and I always feel that the old thing of the year is not over, and now this ominous premonition has finally come, but I didn't expect it to be mentioned from the mouth of a girl...... How much did she know about what happened back then?

Little by little, the worry in his heart became thicker, and before he knew it, Kopochin was covered in sweat. At this time, there was a knock at the door, and the butler Ivo shouted: "Master, the carriage and horses and the accompanying personnel have been arranged, and Master Binks of the security office is also waiting at the door, and you can go to Huangshapo at any time." ”

"Got it, I'll go right away. Kopochin wiped the fine sweat on his head and said to himself: "No, I have to prepare in advance in case things really go as I thought." ”

Out of the room, in front of the garden, the accompanying guards, a dozen bodyguards and several detectives who had been invited were waiting here. Ivo, the butler, said, "Lord Binks is at the gate of the manor, so please get in the car, master." ”

"Hmm. ”

Copochin was about to get into the car, and Reco, who saw him off, said: "Are you really going to go? Mayor Calid was killed, so it is enough for us to go to his house to comfort his family, and we need to run to such a desolate place as Huangshapo? What if we run into an assassin killer?"

Binks came in at this time. I happened to hear Lei Ke's words, and also said, "Yes, Madame is right. Sir, I don't know who killed Mayor Calid, but if something happens to you, the whole city of West Sand will collapse. Sir, you have invited so many bodyguards and guards from afar, and you have also invited so many experts in investigating cases, it is enough for me and these people to go to Huangsha Road to investigate, and it is safer for you to stay in the manor. When I catch the murderer. I will definitely leave him at your disposal. ”

"Khalid and I are not only related, we are a little bit related by blood, he is also the best friend of my life, and Nishisha City has the scale and achievements it has today," said Kopochin. I created Zào with him. Now that he's done something so big, how can I ignore it? And I can feel that it's against me. The killer must be the serial murderer. He knew about Mayor Calid's relationship with me, so he was going to do something to him. ”

"If that's the case, then you can't go, sir, what if it's a trap set by the murderer?"

"This ......," Copperchin hesitated.

At this time, a subordinate in the manor shouted and ran over: "Master." Something happened to the owner. ”

Ivo's face was displeased, and he stopped the subordinate who came and said, "Can you speak, what does it mean that something has happened to the master? ”

"Yes, yes. The subordinate hurriedly changed his words and said, "It's the small building in the backyard that has an accident." ”

When Korpochin heard this, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the study?"

The subordinate said: "This morning, the subordinates found that the two three-headed dogs guarding the courtyard were listless, and they thought that they were sick, so they went to the outside of the manor to ask a veterinarian to come and see. Unexpectedly, just after the veterinarian examination, several extremely fine silver needles were found on the two three-headed dogs, and the veterinarian said that the needles were coated with signs of strong anesthetic. ”

Korpochin's eyebrows jumped: "You mean someone has sneaked into the small building in the backyard?"

Reco's eyes wandered, glancing at Copperchin's expression.

"This ...... I ......" Of course, a subordinate did not dare to make such a judgment, so he could only say: "Master, housekeeper, you better go and see for yourself, the veterinarian is outside the yard." ”

Outside the backyard, the two three-headed dogs had been healed and regained their spirit and vitality. The veterinarian took the five tiny silver needles in the handkerchief and said: "Mr. Sir, these five fine needles are what I took out of them, I have checked them, and there are suspected atropine and hyoscyamine remaining on the needles, which should be made of mandala flowers, but the medicinal properties are much stronger than mandala, and they may be mixed with other narcotic drugs." As for the specific anesthetic used, I had to take the needle back and check it carefully, but there was not much medicine left on the needle, and I could not guarantee that I would be able to check it clearly. "Lurkaf Manor is his old patron, and he often comes to the manor to take care of Kopochin's pet monsters. He also knew that there had been a lot of things going on in the manor recently, so everything that should be said was made clear to Copperchin.

Kopochin nodded: "Excuse me, you can go." ”

After the veterinarian left with the medicine box, several of the people who handled the case and Binks were confused.

"It's strange, it was murder before, why is it a dog now?" Jennifer thought strange.

Binks said: "Could it be that the murderer sneaked into the manor to assassinate him, but was discovered by the three-headed dog guarding the backyard, and he used an anesthetic needle to put the three-headed dog down?"

"But from last night until now, no one has been killed in the manor. Ivo said.

Epsilin asked, "What's this backyard?"

The housekeeper Ivo replied, "The small building in the backyard is the master's study. ”

"Oh, why do you want to build your office here?"

Ivo replied, "That's right, there is a study in the main house, but there are too many people in the building, and there are many wives, so the master can't handle affairs at ease." You also know that the reason why Xisha City can become Xisha City is inseparable from my master, and many things in this city need to be handled by my master, in order to be able to deal with things here, the master ordered people to build this two-story building in the backyard. ”

"I see. Do people usually come in and out of here?"

Ivo shook his head: "No, the master does not allow people to enter or leave this small building, because there are often many important official documents in it, and the master will personally come to see it even when it is cleaning." ”

Kopochin led a few people into the small building, inspected it, and found that nothing had been lost, but there were traces of it being turned over.

After coming out, Lucas said, "It seems that someone put down these two three-headed dogs just to sneak in here to find something, but they didn't find it." As for whether this person will be a murderer, it is impossible to conclude at this time. ”

Ivo, the steward, said: "There have been thieves in the manor before, and although such a large manor is closely watched, there are always a few thieves who want to visit. Could it be just an ordinary theft. ”

Nissim shook his head: "This is definitely not an ordinary case of attempted theft. Ordinary thieves steal nothing more than property, and nothing is stolen in the small building, and this small building is less than a hundred meters behind the main house, in the very center of the manor. Not to mention that there have been a series of murders in the manor recently, and not only has the police dispatched a large number of men to guard the manor, but Sir Lurkauf has also invited so many of us to investigate, how dare an ordinary thief take such a big risk?"

"Could it be the little girl from last night, the girl who came to see the master this morning? Ivo said, "When Lord Binks came to complain about the murder of the owner, Mayor Calid, she went with us. I think she's interested in the things of the manor, which is very suspicious. ”

Speaking of Alice, Copperchin also looked at Nissim.

Nissim affirmatively denied: "No way. ”

Ivo was puzzled, "Why is Sir so sure?"

Next to him, Kopochin said: "Mr. Nessim, if you have any opinions, just say it." ”

"My opinion. Nissim smiled faintly: "Because I think this matter is most likely to be done by people inside the manor, at least related to the people in the manor, so it can't be the little girl named Alice." ”

"Insiders did it?" was taken aback by the fact that many people were surprised.

Nissim said: "Let's not talk about how this thief came here to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, there are a lot of traps and magic traps in the manor, if you don't know anything about the manor, how can you enter this small building without any movement? Of course, the culprit may also be a master, but if this person is really a top master, then he must not be an ordinary thief, because such a person generally does not do such a thing for a little money. If you think about it, the girl named Alice is also quite skilled, but even if she hides her figure, she was still discovered by the guards in the manor, so I still think it is more likely that the crime was committed by someone in the manor. ”

Ivo exclaimed, "But there are hundreds of servants and guards up and down the manor, who will be so many?"

This question was not answered by Nessim because he could not answer it now.

"Now there's more and more going on, first serial homicides, then murders of mayors, and now burglaries," Binks said. Why is it that Xisha City has become so unquiet all of a sudden?"

Lucas said: "The situation is complicated, but things have to be done one by one, and I think it is better to start with the murder of Mayor Khaled." ”

"This is the most important thing, and that's the only way to do it. Binks said, "We'll rush to Wong Sha Road now." Sir, you'd better stay in the manor, I can't afford to take the risk if you get out. As soon as I find something on Huangsha Road, I will send someone back to explain it to you immediately. ”

Copperchin sighed, "Well, I don't know where it's really safe anymore." ”
