Guidebook for the Dark Duke

    Since this mediation, Ferd's side has finally calmed down, but Sheriff Chandler is more active than before, and will find opportunities to see Evan from time to time, but Most of the time, he will be stopped directly by Duke Wilson, and only rarely, when Duke Wilson is away, can Sheriff Chandler be lucky enough to be put in.

    For example, today…

    Evan propped his forehead helplessly, looking at Sheriff Chandler's sad face, he was really speechless.

     "Mr. Sheriff, what is your purpose here?"

    Sheriff Chandler rubbed his hands, his face was a little embarrassed, and after a long time he said, "Mr. Pastor, please help me in this case."

    Evan couldn't help but stunned, he didn't expect that Sheriff Chandler still didn't give up the idea.

    "Sheriff Chandler, what can I do? You look too high on me." Evan said with a smile.

     Sheriff Chandler sighed: "Mr. Pastor, you are too modest. Thanks to your help in the last case, I was able to solve the case, and I am also in this case so far. I don't have any clues, I would like to ask you to help me."

    Speaking of this, Evan is actually a little curious. It was rumored that she committed suicide. Did Sheriff Chandler change his judgment because of Mr. Johnson's personal moral problems ?

    "Sheriff Chandler." Evan considered for a moment and finally said, "Did Mr. Johnson really die of murder? I have always heard that he committed suicide before, why did you suddenly change Do you mean?"

    Listening to Evan taking the initiative to talk about this case, Sheriff Chandler was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "To tell you the truth, Mrs. Johnson also discovered this matter."

    Mrs. Johnson? Evan couldn't help frowning, this woman is definitely not simple.

     "I always thought that Mr. Johnson committed suicide by taking poison, but I didn't expect that Mrs. Johnson found out that the poison Mr. Johnson was taking was very strange, and there was no such poison in the local pharmacy. After a forensic examination, This is a special kind of poison in India, but Mr. Johnson has never been to India, but the secretary, Rael, once served in India for a garrison general, so I detained Rael."

     Sheriff Chandler said with a heavy expression.

    Evan was still a little puzzled after hearing this: "Since this is the case, why is it so difficult?"

     Sheriff Chandler couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "Although this matter is so obvious, unfortunately, I don't have any evidence that Rael directly saw this matter. He cannot be convicted because among the suspects in this matter, it is not only Rael who is related to India, but Mrs. Johnson, who discovered that the poison was not right, has also been to India, which makes this matter extremely complicated."

    Mrs. Johnson has also been to India, and Evan's heart moved slightly.

    "In this case, does that mean that Mrs. Johnson is also suspect?" Evan asked tentatively.

     Sheriff Chandler shook his head at this time: "Impossible, Mrs. Johnson has been helping the Women's Association to donate wool hats that afternoon, she has no chance to commit crimes."

    Evan couldn't help but lower his head and smiled when he heard this: "The Women's Association and Johnson's house are only two streets away, and under normal circumstances, women's activities will be very messy, people come and go, Does anyone keep an eye on Mrs Johnson all the time?"

    Evan looked at Sheriff Chandler's unwillingness to believe, and couldn't help but smiled: "Mr. Sheriff, you are a gentleman and do not want to believe that Mrs. Johnson may be Murderer, but please look at this matter objectively."

    Sheriff Chandler was a little embarrassed by what Evan said, and laughed a few times: "I am subjective, I will investigate this matter carefully."

    Evan nodded, but he was a little muttered in his heart. He didn't want to take care of this matter, but he didn't expect to be able to pay attention to his curiosity in the end.

      Breaking through his confession, his alibi is now very vague. He said that he went to the Opera House to listen to the opera, and the Opera House also has a record of his ticket purchase and admission, but unfortunately, during the time of Mr. Johnson's death , there is a gap in the middle of the opera house, and no one knows the trace of Rael at that time."

    Evan couldn't help frowning when he heard it, so it seemed that neither of them had a perfect alibi, this matter may be complicated.

    "Since Mr. Rael has a conflict with Mr. Johnson, have you gained anything in the opera house?" Evan asked again.

     Sheriff Chandler frowned: "The Opera House has not gained anything, the management of the Opera House has been very chaotic, especially during the intermission, no one will pay attention to one A boy without a name."

    Evan sighed involuntarily after hearing this: "This matter is so complicated, I suggest that you still publish a newspaper to find witnesses, otherwise this matter may not be easy to solve."

     Sheriff Chandler has always disagreed with the handling of the newspaper, but at this time there is no other way, Sheriff Chandler can only nod: "I hope so Get a good result."

    The two exchanged a few words later, mainly to exchange Evan's injury. Evan's current injury is actually much better, but due to Evan's plan, naturally It's impossible to really tell the truth.

    "The wound has not fully recovered yet, thank you for your concern." Evan said very politely, but also with a trace of alienation.

     Sheriff Chandler's thick nerves did not hear Evan's estrangement, he still patted Evan's shoulder with a smile, and said brightly: "I hope your body can get better soon. , the Mass of the assistant pastor these days is really unbearable."

     Sheriff Chandler has always had a personality of what to say, so Evan did not question the truth of his words, and couldn't help frowning, that child really did this Bad?

    Evan resisted and didn't ask for details. I'd better ask Mrs. Sanders next time about this matter. He is looking for something.

    In the end, Evan sent Sheriff Chandler away before lunch. It was not that Evan was unwilling to keep him for dinner, but Sheriff Chandler was afraid that Duke Wilson would come back. Can't get any benefit.

     Sergeant Chandler left Cornwall Manor on the front foot, Duke Wilson came back on the back foot, when Duke Wilson came back, the expression on his face was not happy, he came to the garden where Evan was reading , followed by a man Evan had never seen before.

    The man looked mediocre, but the look in Evan's eyes was very intriguing, and Evan couldn't help frowning.

    "Sir Duke." Evan stood up with a chair, and nodded slightly: "You are back."

    The duke watched him stand up, hurried forward to meet him, and helped Evan to sit down.

     "Mr. Pastor, your body has not healed yet, so you don't need to be so polite in the future."

    Seeing Duke Wilson's anxious face, Evan couldn't help laughing, and finally sat down according to the Duke's wishes, and whispered: "Your face is so anxious, is it out of the blue? What's the matter?"

    Duke Wilson frowned and waved his hand: "It's fine, it's just that something went wrong in the capital."

    The Royal Capital? Evan's heart couldn't help but jump. He couldn't hear the word "Royal Capital" right now. As long as he heard it, he would think of the commotion in the book. From the capital to Delan Lier, the mob was in turmoil. Among them, Delan Lier was even bloodbathed in the end. If the Duke transferred the army at the last moment, I am afraid that the Duke of Face would not have been spared.

      When he got here, he turned to look at the man with a very strange expression next to him, and said, "Then do you know who this gentleman is? I haven't seen it before."

    Evan has been in Delan Lier for so long, although he can’t say that he has seen all the townspeople in Delan Lier, but at least most people can have an impression, but this man, he But no impression at all.

    Duke Wilson watched Evan pay attention to Ederson, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous. He moved his steps to block Evan's gaze at Edson, and said stiffly: "This is One of my staff, you don't need to care."

    After he finished speaking, he gave Edson a wink, and in the end Edson could only retreat reluctantly.

    The Duke's strange actions made Evan a little surprised. Why is the Duke so nervous? Is there something wrong with this staff?

    Evan's heart was full of doubts, but his face did not show it, he turned to look at the Duke, smiled slightly, and said softly: "You are really hard, sit down and drink a cup of tea Bar."

    As soon as the duke came in, a maid brought black tea.

    The Duke was relieved to see that Evan would no longer pursue it. He sat down and took a sip from the tea bowl.

     "Mr. Reverend, how are you feeling these days?" Duke Wilson asked routinely.

    Evan moved slightly when he heard the action, and smiled: "Sir Duke, forgive me for offending, in my heart you are already my friend, if you don't mind, you can call me Evan ."

    Duke Wilson seemed to be startled by Evan's words, and looked at Evan blankly, half-opening his mouth, looking a little ridiculous.

    Evan smiled secretly in his heart when he saw it, but he had a worried look on his face: "Sir, are you all right?"

    "Eh?" The duke trembled as if shocked by something, and the tea bowl in his hand almost fell to the ground.

    "Oh, oh, I'm fine, fine." The duke quickly put the teacup on the table and sat upright, not looking directly at Evan, but at the rose bush in front of him: " I am very touched by your friendship, and I will naturally not mind. On the contrary, I am very honored to have your friendship, but since you recognize our friendship, please don't call me the Duke in the future, you call me Charles That's it."

    The Duke said very quickly, as if he was afraid of Evan's rejection, and did not dare to look at Evan's expression.

    Evan looked at the handsome profile of the duke, a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes, but the words in his mouth were extremely gentle: "You are too polite, it is me who can get your friendship It's an honor." Speaking of which, Evan twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a low and terrifying tone: "Charles."
