Chapter 7 Fortune Teller Club, codenamed

After Wilder left.

Finks headed straight to the lobby.

Find the steward.

In the living room, the housekeeper and servants are all here.

They are also waiting for news.

Seeing Finks coming, the housekeeper hurriedly greeted him.

"Your Excellency, Detective, have you found out anything about the Baron?"

Finks glanced at the crowd.

I didn't see the man in the picture.

Asked the butler.

"Before His Excellency the Baron passed away, was there a man in his mid-thirties who came to the castle?"

"He also used to get a ladder."

The butler thought for a while.

I didn't think of this character either.

He turned to look at the servants and asked.

"Do any of you remember that someone borrowed a ladder recently?"

One of the maids raised her hand.

"Master Butler, a week ago, Carpenter Harvey asked me to get a ladder when he came to repair the windows."

Finks' eyes lit up.

Asked the butler.

"Do you know who this Harvey carpenter is?"

There was a look of confusion on the butler's face.

Answer truthfully.

"Carpenter Harvey lives next to the castle. He has been maintaining our castle since he became a carpenter."

"He is a kind man and never offends anyone. The Baron has never treated Harvey badly. He shouldn't be the murderer, right?"

Finks smiled and patted the butler on the shoulder.

"If every murderer could be seen from the outside, there would be no need for us detectives."

"Call a servant to take me to find that Harvey. I will tell you the result naturally."

"Okay! Thank you, Your Excellency!"

The housekeeper directly asked the maid who just spoke.

We took Finks to Harvey's accommodation.

Outside the castle manor.

It's just a main street.

Ordinary residents live on both sides.

A large part of them are residents who serve the castle.

The maid takes Finks with her.

Arrive at a 2-story wooden house.

"Harvey!!! Is Harvey home?"

Soon, a middle-aged man appeared from the second floor window.

It was the man Finks saw in the image.

When Harvey saw the police badge on Finks' clothes.

The pupils contracted slightly.

I felt a little panicked.

After learning yesterday about the death of Baron Borsay.

He was always on tenterhooks.

I couldn't imagine it.

The mechanism installed will be involved in the death of Lord Baron.

Keep blessing and don't involve yourself.

Unexpectedly...

And police detectives show up.

He opened his lips slightly and took two deep breaths.

Stressed my mind.

Then he shouted to the maid below.

"Can I help you?"

The maid pointed at Finks and introduced.

"This is Detective Finks. I want to tell you about the time you went to the castle to repair the windows."

Harvey refused.

But facing the police detective, even if he wanted to refuse, he would not dare.

"Wait a minute, I'll come down and open the door right away!!"

On the sofa in the living room.

Finks sat across from Harvey.

Looking into the other person's eyes, he asked.

"I hope you will answer the following questions truthfully, otherwise you will bear legal responsibility."

Harvey nodded with evasive eyes.

"I understand, Detective!"

Harvey's expression naturally fell into Finks' eyes.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Instead of beating around the bush, he asked directly.

"Why did you install a mechanism in the corridor of the castle? Why did you want to kill Baron Borsay? Do you have any grudge against him?"

I say this just to test it out.

Who would have thought.

Harvey was directly across from the couch.

"Plop...!" He knelt down.

Harvey thought Finks had discovered that he had installed the trap.

To have a chance of survival.

He didn't dare to continue beating around the bush and said it directly.

cried and shouted.

"Your Excellency, Detective, I have never thought of killing Baron Borsay."

"Ugh...! It's unjust. I just rely on the castle to make a living. How could I harm him? I'm really unjust!!"

Since the Baron's death, Harvey hasn't been able to eat or sleep well.

I have long been unable to bear this suffering.

As soon as Finks' question came up, Harvey collapsed.

You know what killed the baron.

Not only will he die, but his family will also be guilty.

In order to avoid thoughts.

Yesterday, I sent my children and wife back to my parents' home, hoping to avoid this disaster.

Finks frowned slightly.

Based on years of experience in investigating crimes, it is obvious that Harvey did not really want to kill the Baron.

At the same time, I also realize that there may be a problem.

Said hurriedly.

"Don't cry, tell me why you went to the castle to install the mechanism?"

Harvey raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes.

Then he sobbed.

"A while ago, a murder occurred here. A husband and wife suddenly disappeared."

"The night before I disappeared, I happened to be out drinking some wine and came back late."

"I saw a huge spider crawl into that house with my own eyes."

"But later when I told the police detectives who came to investigate, they thought I drank too much."

"For the safety of my family and children, I went to the Fortune Teller Club for help."

"Then I found a fortune teller and he told me that by installing a mechanism in the corridor of the castle, I could kill the giant spider."

"Thinking about it, the agency is relatively secretive anyway, so it won't hurt the people inside."

"While the window was being repaired, I installed the mechanism. Who would have thought that a week later, I would hear about the death of the Baron."

"Detective, I just wanted to kill that spider for the safety of my family."

"You tell me how wronged I am for this!!"

In fact, regarding this matter, even if Harvey installed it deliberately, he is not guilty of any crime.

After all, it was the spider that the mechanism shot to death, not the baron.

Finks just wanted to know what happened.

Now the source points to the fortune teller.

I asked after thinking for a while.

"Which fortune teller club did you go to? Which fortune teller did you find?"

Harvey answered directly without thinking.

"Qiao Le Fortune Teller Club!! Fortune teller codenamed 'The Fool'!"

Finks stood up.

"We have a general understanding of the situation. If there is any follow-up situation, I will come again. I will not leave Makenna City in the near future."

"Otherwise, even if you are not guilty, you will become guilty!"

Harvey nodded hastily.

"Yes, yes, I will never leave!! If you need to ask anything, I will answer truthfully."

Harvey was also relieved.

Unexpectedly, this police detective was quite wise and did not take the blame on himself.

Although this is a legal society.

But the class concept is very obvious.

The status of civilians is low.

There are countless civilians in prison who have been wrongly accused.

Then he turned to the maid.

"Go back and tell the housekeeper that it is initially determined that this matter has nothing to do with Harvey."

"yes!"

After Finks left.

There was no rush to return to the police station.

But toward.

Head towards Qiao Le Fortune Teller Club.
