Chapter 41 Death

Manor Hall.

As the ornate candlesticks were lit, Ernest stared solemnly at the corpse wrapped in white cloth on the floor.

Dead.

A washermaid in the manor dies.

Died in the laundry room.

He frowned and rubbed the temple: “Everyone, have you found anything out of the investigation?”

There were a total of eight people at the scene.

All were detectives and security members hired by Ernest.

At this moment.

A middle-aged man with brown hair and a long beard said: “Mr. Ernest, if we don’t know all the information, it’s very difficult to find useful clues.

At this time.

There is still something to hide, then we can only apologize.”

The man finished.

Several people next to him also stared at Ernest. Obviously, it was not that simple to hire them here.

The one who spoke out was also an experienced detective.

Named Mohalo.

He has an old scar on his face that looks a little vicious.

Compared with younger generations like Elise, he has been famous for many years and has a lot of fame and prestige in the detective community.

After he speaks.

Ernest said solemnly: “Everyone, I hired you to keep me safe!”

“Yes, but if we don’t know the enemy we face Who is it, I’m afraid I can’t help.” Mohalo’s eyes were serious.

The meaning of the detectives is very clear.

If it is not clear.

Then they will probably all leave.

After all, I don’t even know who my opponent is now.

Ernest swept his eyes across the crowd, and then said, “The Razor Party in the Docklands, everyone should know?”

He heard the word “Razor Party”.

Everyone’s faces changed to some extent.

Romon, after this period of hard work, naturally knows the reputation of the Razor Party.

It was a “living social organization”.

The main thing it usually does is to collect protection fees, fight, intercept goods, etc. The scale is not small, and in a chaotic place like the dock area, it is like a fish back in water.

Elise frowned: “If it’s the Razor Party, Mr. Ernest, I suggest you call the police immediately. We can’t handle such a thing.”

“Also It’s not the Razor Party, it’s a small gang under the Razor Party. When I was unloading the goods at the dock, I had some conflicts with them.

My two servants accidentally injured one of them, Seriously injured.

But I already paid for it at the time.”

Ernest said: “But just last week, I received it outside my manor. Threatening letter, they asked me to pay 300 pounds of medical expenses.

I know very well that they are here because of me, and they want to make a fortune from me.

But.

I didn’t expect them to kill people!”

It’s not uncommon.

If it is in Burnham, businessmen like Ernest must have their own network of connections.

But now he’s moved to Fogtown from Burnham.

The previous relationship network is almost abolished.

New arrival.

The equivalent to is a fat sheep that carries a lot of money.

It’s hard to deal with a local gang like this.

If you give money.

That is endless.

No.

It will disgust you in every way.

But killing people directly is a bit too much, not like the style of these small gangs…

“Mr. Ernest, are you sure you are a gang member?” Mohalo once again asked.

Ernest nodded, “Yes, that gang is called the Baldhead Gang, a small gang under the Razor Party.”

“Anyway, you should call the police first.”

Elise suggested .

……

Half an hour after everyone called the police.

Three detectives arrived at the manor and cordoned off the scene.

Then.

The forensic doctor identified the corpse on the spot, and then said suspiciously: “She died of natural causes. I still need further examination for the specific reason.”

Everyone took advantage of this time. .

I have already asked everyone in the manor carefully.

There was no trace of anyone else in the laundry room where the accident happened, and no outsiders entered the manor.

For a while.

The situation is a little confusing.

Night.

In the room, Elise asked Romon, “What do you think about this?”

“I don’t know, it may be natural death, or there may be other reasons. Many Awakened, can create such a death scene.

So my suggestion is to retreat quickly.”

Elise looked puzzled: “You mean, should we retreat now?

Indeed, if you leave now, there is no problem, because Ernest withheld the information first.

But.

Just now, Europe Nestor raised his pay to three pounds a day.”

Romon knew what Elise meant.

As awakened, she is obviously not afraid of those little gangs, and how can she make money without risk.

However.

He felt that this matter was not simple, how could Elise not notice it?

About the extraordinary group behind her, what is the mission on Ernest?

“This matter, isn’t it related to the Blood Cup Religion group?”

Romon suddenly asked.

It seems that she is more persistent only in matters related to the Blood Cup Religion group.

After all, it’s a bloody feud.

Elise shook her head: “I’ve investigated, Ernest has been an ordinary businessman in the past and has nothing to do with the Blood Cup Religion group.

A year ago , he suddenly made a fortune, it seems that he was engaged in maritime trade.

A person who can do sea business is definitely not simple.

The mission of the Dawn Knight group this time is for me to investigate The cargo that Ernest brought from Burnham.”

Elise has always had an extraordinary organization behind it.

When

This is something Romon has known for a long time.

And he also went to check the information of the Dawn Knight group.

This extraordinary organization is relatively low-key, and it is also a very normal Sect. The basic method is Dawn Breathing Technique.

On the Bureau’s whitelist.

A friendly and extraordinary organization.

When he came back from the Yuelan Bookstore, Elise also asked him if he wanted to join the Dawn Knight group.

Romon, who has learned the Meditation Method of Witchcraft, is impossible to revise other Basic Laws.

“You go back first, this commission is over, I am staying because of the mission of the Knight regiment, which has nothing to do with you.”

Elise said.

After what happened last time, she didn’t want to involve Romon for no reason.

If nothing happens, you can get an extra salary.

But now that something happened, there was no need for Romon to stay.

The trust relationship between them is not so deep yet.

“Okay, be careful. If you contact me immediately, I’ll call the police.” Romon agreed, and started to clean up the bottles in the room, moving very smoothly, like Practiced countless times.

“Hey, hey, you don’t even pretend, you must have figured out how to run with such a skilled action!”

“You are so surprised. What are you doing, safety must come first when you go out.”

Romon rolled his eyes and said naturally.
