The uncle asked again: "So what were you doing before and after the incident?"

"Eat and chat."

After hearing this, the uncle did not continue to ask what they were talking about.

If the two of them were not the murderers, then the topic was just a private topic between lovers, and if they were the two of them, they would not tell the truth.

The blonde girl took notes in a notebook and also recorded the conversation between the two parties.

The next table was occupied by the two middle-aged men.

The two middle-aged men had a bad attitude and didn't want to stay here.

"When will you let us go? We were drinking when that man died. It couldn't have been me."

The uncle nodded.

"I also want to let you go, but I don't have the authority to do so. I am just cooperating with the investigation. Everyone present, except the store manager, including me, is suspected of committing the crime. If you cooperate, I will try my best to clear you of suspicion."

The middle-aged man remained silent.

"Excuse me, have you ever gone to the toilet while eating?"

The two thought about it, and one of them nodded and said, "I've been there once."

"Have you ever passed by a dead person?"

"The toilet is in the direction of the deceased. If I went to the toilet, I must have passed by it, but this does not mean that I am the murderer."

The uncle felt helpless.

"Don't get too excited. I didn't say you were the murderer. This is just a simple inquiry. It doesn't mean anything."

The uncle did not continue asking. Given the state of these two people, they would probably collapse if he continued asking.

The next one is the soldier.

And this person asks different questions to each person.

The questions asked to the soldiers this time were when they got off work and why they came to this store.

Wright found that his questions were not just for that group of people, but for everyone.

The blonde girl observed the people around her intentionally or unintentionally while recording.

Then came the woman next to the deceased.

At this moment, her face was full of fear.

Chapter 605: I said at the beginning that the criminal is me

After all, she witnessed the entire process from the onset of the attack to the death of the deceased.

The woman looked at the uncle in confusion.

The uncle gave what he thought was a gentle smile.

"Beautiful lady, I know you are in a bad mood right now, so I just want to ask you a question. Who do you think is most likely the murderer here?"

The woman frantically scanned the suspects present, then pointed at Wright and said excitedly, "It's him. He made too much noise when eating. My husband and I said a few words to him, and he holds a grudge against me. This must be the case."

Everyone looked at Wright, who was eating at a table just across from the crime scene. He was the closest person to the two.

Naturally, Wright was the last person to be questioned.

The uncle looked at Wright.

He shook his head helplessly.

"This ordinary case actually involved such a big figure."

Wright looked at the uncle in confusion.

Then he joked:

"Actually, what that woman said was right. I am the murderer."

The uncle laughed, but his laugh was helpless.

"Don't make trouble at this critical moment. If you are the murderer, then I am an accomplice. If you want to kill someone, there is no need to be sneaky."

The blonde girl was a little confused.

"Sherlock, what are you talking about?"

The uncle introduced: "The person in front of you is the current Holy Envoy of the God's Cult. He was also the one who fought back and forth with the strongest human Valkyrie in the competition field, and they fell in love with each other and finally gave birth to offspring. If this person is the murderer, no one present will see the sun tomorrow."

To be honest, Wright was a little shocked. It was the first time that someone knew so much about the rumors about him. This uncle was indeed an extraordinary person.

At this time, the inspection team brought the information of everyone present, of course there was no information about Wright.

Charlotte sat in a chair and looked through the materials.

It was discovered that many of the people present were related to the deceased.

For example, there were two middle-aged men who used to be helpers in the deceased's family.

There was an unpleasant argument over the salary issue.

The deceased was rich but very stingy. However, he was not completely stingy and spent a lot of money on women.

Let’s talk about that young couple.

The woman had been raped by the old rich man, and the man had a relationship with the rich man's current wife.

As for the rich man’s wife, she didn’t love him, she just had affairs with several men for his money while they were married.

There was also a soldier who had a feud with the old rich man over real estate.

All I can say is that most of the people here are suspects.

The death of the old rich man benefited his wife the most, but the man in the young couple was the one with the greatest motive for murder.

In the inquiries just now, men were the ones who took the lead.

I always feel like I'm overlooking something.

Sherlock was lost in thought when the blonde girl came up to him and said something.

Sherlock suddenly realized.

Is it possible that there were many people who wanted to kill the deceased, but the person who finally did it surprised everyone?

Sherlock came to Wright and asked with interest: "Sir, who do you think the real murderer is?"

Wright shook his head.

"Open-book exams and closed-book exams are both exams, but their natures are completely different. If you ask me, the fun of reasoning is lost."

Wright added: "You are right about this matter. This is indeed an accidental murder. If you follow this path, the correct answer will not be far away from you."

Sherlock paced back and forth.

I don't know how many times they walked back and forth, but Sherlock suddenly said something.

"Ms. Torreya, please tell me how you killed the deceased."

Torreya was the woman in the young couple.

Torreya shuddered when he heard that, and the man who was her boyfriend stood up.

"I was the one who killed him. It has nothing to do with Torreya."

Sherlock asked back: "You say you are who you are, but if your motive and method of murder are logical, I can believe you."

"The reason why I wanted to kill this bastard is because he stole my ex-girlfriend and raped my current girlfriend. As for the method of killing, it was even simpler, that is, poisoning. I also went to the toilet and passed by the bastard. When he was cuddling with his wife, I put the instant poison powder into his wine glass. Because the powder is very toxic, it can be poisoned without being noticed."

Sherlock nodded.

"The motivation is sufficient and the method is reasonable, but the biggest problem here is that it is too idealistic."

"First, you said you poisoned the deceased when you passed by him, and you said the poison was very strong, but the deceased did not die immediately after you poisoned him. Of course, there is also a possibility that the deceased did not drink the poisoned wine immediately."

As he spoke, Sherlock changed the subject and pointed to the wine glass on the table near the inside of the crime scene.

"But the deceased's wine glass was on the inside, and according to the information I know, the deceased was left-handed. The position and direction of the wine glass are reasonable. There is no possibility that it was placed here by accident. How did you poison the wine glass on the inside? Wouldn't that be too obvious?"

The man was visibly panicked, and then he changed his tone.

"Maybe I remembered it wrongly. I poisoned the food."

"That's even more impossible. If you put poison in the food, how can you guarantee that it was sprinkled on the food accurately at that moment, without leaving a trace on the table, and that the deceased's wife would not eat the poisoned food?"

"Most importantly, the death of the deceased does not conform to the reaction of poisoning. In my opinion, it is more like a spiritual force, a curse."

"The only one who meets the requirements is your girlfriend."

The man is still quibbling.

"You can go to the toilet water tank and take a look. My poison is inside, wrapped in a bag."

At this time Sherlock took out a transparent bag.

"Are you talking about this unopened thing?"

The man was completely silent.

But he still held his girlfriend's fingers tightly.

"I am the criminal, whether you believe it or not."

At this time, Wright stood up and sighed helplessly.

"I said at the beginning that I was the criminal."

This time, Sherlock said nothing.

Just look at the people around you.

"Although this matter has come to a conclusion, it is better not to tell anyone what happened. This is for everyone's benefit."

He said looking at Wright.

"Then please, this criminal will come with us."

Wright pulled out a tissue and wiped his mouth.

"no problem."

Light followed Sherlock and the blonde girl to a detective agency.

Sherlock made a cup of tea for Wright.

"Lord Light, I want to know your motive for doing this."

Wright took the teacup, blew on it and took a sip.

Chapter 606: Big Deal

"There is no special reason. The girl's mental state was too bad. From the beginning to now, she was in extreme panic. In this situation, she unconsciously activated the self-defense magic to lock the person, causing him to die suddenly."

"Sometimes the truth is not important. The correct answer is to properly handle the matter and minimize the harm caused by it. At least from my perspective, this is what I see and think is the best solution."

"If we arrest this girl, something might happen to her in jail, which is what we want to see, after all, she is the real victim."

Sherlock couldn't help but sigh.

“This is truly the pattern of a great man.”

"Don't say that. You have a big vision. Otherwise, the inspection team would not be able to give you full authority to handle the matter. Are you an official?"

Sherlock smiled and waved his hand.

"I'm not an official. I'm just a private detective with poor performance and insufficient income."

Wright smiled and looked at the blonde girl beside him.

"You are still too modest. This beautiful girl must be of extraordinary status."

Sherlock rubbed his nose proudly.

"This is indeed a rich lady, and she is my admirer and follower."

The girl's self-esteem was at work.
