my wife is a consul

Chapter 317 Case in Case

In the bar, opposite Thomas Hoddleman, Han Anni was asking him questions, and his forehead was already sweating.

Isabel's entourage took notes carefully.

Lu Ming was behind the bar, from this angle, Thomas couldn't see him.

Listening to Han Anni's question, Lu Ming nodded. The little girl is getting better and better, and her interrogation skills have improved a lot.

Glancing at Hetty, who was a little anxious on the opposite side, Lu Ming whispered, "Don't worry, it's fine."

Just now, Hetty mentioned that Simmons often gets drunk here, and has talked with her a lot, and what Simmons said most is that Thomas Hoddleman gave him too many favors, and she has always been very strange , but he was a worker in a leather factory, and he was paid the same salary as others, and he didn't see much money saved. How can Thomas give him a lot of favors?
And when she heard that Simmons had assassinated the Duke of Hausburg, she thought of the time she had chatted with Thomas, and felt even more strange.

Moreover, the last time he saw Simmons, Simmons asked her if she wanted to leave here with him and pick her up when he made a lot of money.

Simmons had joked with her like this many times, and she thought it was the same as before, drunk and joking, but she didn't want to, that was the last time the two of them met.

When talking about this, Hetty looked a little sad and a little panicked. Obviously, she also knew that she might be involved in this terrible vortex.

And now, when Thomas was brought here for questioning, Hetty was even more terrified.

Looking at her, Lu Ming said in a low voice: "I told you, I can send you and your daughter away tonight. If you want to settle down in Houseville, there is a Peninsula Hotel in Houseville. I can arrange a housekeeping service for you." Deputy director or deputy director of the cleaning department, I feel that you are very careful and capable, and you can quickly get started doing this kind of work, and as a deputy, you can also quickly gain experience." Pause, "If you don't want to stay in Houseville , you can also go to Donghai, there is also my hotel there, of course, other cities are also available. As me, I suggest you leave Hausville, because you should also understand that this is a big case, although you are not involved in it, There is no need for you to testify in court, but after all, you have contributed to the Special Investigation Bureau, and it will not be guaranteed in the future... So, I suggest you leave and go to another place to live a new life, and I will help you get a new identity."

After a pause, "Actually, it's hard to leave your hometown, but the sky and the earth are big outside, maybe the scenery is better, you should think about it."

A female entourage was quietly interpreting by the side.

Hetty listened in a daze, and at this moment she smiled bitterly: "What is leaving home? This is not my home at all. If I have the opportunity to leave here and forget everything here, it will be a gift from heaven to me, Mr. Lu , thank you, I am willing to go to another place, you can send me anywhere, as long as you don't trouble you too much."

Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, then I understand."

Thomas suddenly yelled angrily: "What, you want to lock me up for 48 hours? What evidence do you have, what law did I commit? I need a lawyer!"

"Whether a lawyer is present or not, we also have the right to detain you for 48 hours. During this time, we will not interrogate you again, so there is no need to provide you with a lawyer!" Requisition, you just stay here and think about it, if there is anything you need to tell us!"

Lu Ming gestured to Heidi and the little girl Lida next to him, pointed to the back door, and whispered, "Let's go from here."

……

In the study room on the second floor of the small courtyard, the bald detective Quixon sat opposite. For the past two days, he has been scraping the ground to investigate everyone in the town who may be related to the three of Simmons.

At this time, looking at Lu Ming, he smiled wryly and said, "I don't believe it, old Lu, you can't find out anything? Didn't you figure out the identities of the three gunmen without making a sound?"

He came to inquire about the news, but he couldn't get the point after talking for a long time.

Lu Ming called him Lao Kui, so he followed suit and called Lu Ming Lao Lu.

Lu Ming spread his hands: "There are no clues."

After the door was knocked lightly, Isabel rushed in with excitement on her face, but when she saw Quexon, she immediately stood still, regained her elegance and calmness, and said calmly, "You haven't left yet?"

Quixon is one of the few people in the Special Investigation Bureau who knows Isabel's true identity, because although he is not a high-ranking person, he is a detective who is highly relied on by the top management of the Special Investigation Bureau, and many things are not hidden from him. If the salary can't satisfy him, he can only use this way of paying special attention to him, and tell him the secret that only the highest level can know, and Quexon will do this.

Seeing this noble royal family with incomparably beautiful snow-white clothes, Quixon stood up, stroked his chest and bowed, "Miss Isabel, I'm taking my leave!"

He looked at Lu Ming suspiciously again, and thought that Lao Lu was Lao Lu. You said, Your Excellency Isabel clearly regarded him as his own person, knocking on the door and barging in. Moreover, the unsmiling poker face I usually see It's gone, that little excited look, obviously a beautiful girl in her prime, now, she's picking it up again.

Lu Ming thought for a while, and said, "Lao Kui, how about it, you stay. Although the fewer people who know the better, I believe you. You can't tell anyone before you roll the dice."

Quixon was overjoyed immediately, "Good, good!"

Lu Ming looked at Isabel, "Is there any good news?"

Seeing that Lu Ming allowed the agent to stay, Isabel didn't set up defenses against Quexon, and smiled triumphantly: "Yes, teacher."

Quixon looked at this scene, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and smiled bitterly in his heart, yes, even if he is a real nobleman, in reality, he is still a young girl in her prime, isn't she?However, the cute appearance of her young girl is naturally invisible to ordinary people.

Isabel has already taken out a letter, "The fourth team intercepted it, and the interrogation came out. The letter was sent to Houseville and addressed to Rooney Hodlman, the owner of the hotel you talked about business with, but the person who delivered the letter was . . . he did not know what the letter contained."

Lu Ming nodded, took the letter, and saw that it was still sealed with glue. Obviously, Isabel didn't open it, but gave it to himself to read the letter immediately.

Although she must translate the content of the letter, but she also showed it to herself to read, out of respect for herself.

Lu Ming smiled at Isabel: "It seems that you deserve the most credit, and it's all your idea."

Isabel smiled coquettishly, "Thank you teacher!"

The Hodelman family of the tannery is pressing every step of the way to create an atmosphere that they have been exposed and even have certain evidence.

In the previous life, it was the method of scaring the snake.

Sure enough, the branch of the Hodelman family in this small town couldn't hold back anymore and wanted to contact a higher level.

As for the phone calls, etc., Isabel's people are all on the line to monitor, and they are also watching the activities of the members of the Hodelman family.

Sure enough, the messenger has been intercepted now.

Lu Ming put on rubber gloves, soaked the head of the envelope with water, slowly opened the envelope, pulled out the paper from inside, and smiled.

It seems that the key information has really been intercepted, but it is not that simple just to decrypt it.

A curious pretty face approached Isabel next to Lu Ming's face, gritted her teeth, "How cunning!"

On the paper, there are a bunch of numbers, obviously, it is a coded letter.
