Chapter 358: Some people should go to hell

Anthony's face changed drastically in an instant.

I couldn't stand back until I was leaning on the billiard table, pressing the table with my hand, and did not slump on the ground because of the weak legs.

He really didn't think that Li Changheng would ignore the evidence and use his hatred of killing the hereditary earl to stare at his other problems.

He even spent money and wasted experience just to make him bankrupt.

Moreover, Anthony broke into a cold sweat at the thought of the things he had done because of bad business and the company was about to go bankrupt.

Li Changheng chuckled, "Is it thinking that even so, it's better than being convicted and going to jail, right?"

Anthony raised his head in an instant, and listened to the young man in front of him with a smile, "If I say we only want to catch the murderer, don't care about the others.

Even help you, give you a chance to sell the company that is about to go bankrupt, leave England with the money, go to other places to start again, then you say or not? "

After hearing this, although Anthony still didn't speak, the expressions and eyes on his face all said that he wanted to agree to this condition, but he didn't dare to speak directly, lest he would be swindled by Li Changheng.

After thinking for a while, Li Changheng decided not to tell the story of the old Gosford poisoning.

Looking at Sheriff Tadel and asking, "If Earl Gosford had died of a heart attack or other disease before he was assassinated.

So the person who assassinated him has nothing to do with the murder? "

Sheriff Tadel was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Li Changheng incredulously.

But soon he frowned and lowered his head to recall, and then exclaimed, "God, is there little blood on the white shirt?"

Li Changheng smiled and nodded, "Only people who have been dead for more than half an hour will be stabbed in the chest with very little blood flowing out."

"Damn it, is it true that the earl drank too much wine and died of a heart attack?"

Sheriff Teddle was stunned, but he was holding his forehead in regret.

I thought it was a big credit, but now there is such a turning point.

If you don't catch the assassin, don't say the credit, as long as there are words in the report that Earl Gosford had a heart attack and died first.

100% of the above and the nobles would think that this was because he was perfunctory, or covering for the murderer, or even being bought by the murderer.

Teddle looked at Anthony with a bad face and said, "As long as you tell it, I promise that I will not mention the small hole in the garden that was smashed by the dagger in the report."

Li Changheng instantly understood Sheriff Tadel, that he was lying to Anthony just like himself, because he had seen it, and the butler had seen it.

It's not so easy to say that if you don't, there won't be.

Moreover, if he really intends to let Anthony go, he should say that he will talk to the prosecutor and state that Anthony has done meritorious service.

At the very least, it is safest to wait until Anthony's lawyers arrive and let his lawyers reach an agreement with the monitoring party.

But while Anthony was suddenly heart attacked by the old Gosford, his brain was shocked and surprised.

Then what I thought in my heart was that although I didn't need to go to jail, but if I didn't say who did the assassination, I would be impoverished by the nobles in the second half of their lives, and their wives would be scattered.

Therefore, Anthony did not think about letting his own lawyer handle it at this time, or did not deal with lawyers in criminal cases at all.

Or maybe people like him don't understand the law at all.

"The murderer is Raymond's driver Defoe."

Li Changheng frowned and asked hurriedly, "Why?"

"Because, because."

Anthony stammered for a long time, but he said with a hint of excitement in his eyes, "Because Defoe is the illegitimate son of Earl Gosford."

FK.

Li Changheng and Sheriff Tadel immediately scolded in their hearts.

Then I heard Anthony continue to say, "Furthermore, he was sent to an orphanage since he was born, and even the orphanage where he was adopted was the private child of Earl Gosford."

Li Changheng couldn't help clenching his fists. He was born as an orphan himself, and he felt like he was personally cursing old Gosford by cursing "It's good to die".

But after a while he asked in disbelief, "Since it is an orphanage that specializes in adopting illegitimate children, not to mention that Defoe is probably not aware of his identity, as well as the identity of his brothers and sisters.

And even if he had a hard life, could he hate Gosford to the point that he must be killed?

After all, the orphanage also raised him. "

"It's not that simple," Anthony sighed. "He really didn't know anything until we found Defoe.

But after we told him, when we went to find our own brothers and sisters, except for a younger brother who started a family and had a good life with children.

Three of the other four died prematurely, and the only remaining sister who was sick could not live long. How much would he hate his father? "

After listening to Anthony's words, Li Changheng and Tadel couldn't help being silent.

Then stared at Anthony and asked, "According to what you said, this happened at least ten years ago, so how did you know it?

And, besides Raymond, is there Countess Trenson besides Raymond? "

Li Changheng would suspect that Countess Trenson, the aunt of Countess Sylvia, was entirely because the old woman had prevented him from continuing to investigate when she was in the study.

Now when I think about it, it's probably only her age to know about Old Gosford.

But the reason?

Before Anthony could speak, he asked, "Why does Countess Trenson want Count Gosford to die?"

When Anthony heard this, he immediately showed a shocked expression, but he could see Li Changheng's unsentimental gaze.

While shocked, he could only speak, "Probably because of alimony."

Because of this?

Li Changheng didn't believe it at first, but then he thought that the old woman looked at least 70 years old.

If there is no source of income, how can she survive?

"So, you were all pulled into the thief boat by the Countess Trenson?"

Anthony shook his head, "I will be involved because Raymond told me that my wife Lavinia has maintained a special relationship with the earl for 4 years.

In extreme anger ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and he promised that as long as I stole the knife from the kitchen of the manor, he would give me £10,000.

Moreover, the knife was not thrown by me, it was thrown by Raymond. "

After listening to Li Changheng's mouth, it didn't matter who threw the weapon.

He really didn't want to retaliate against people like Anthony, but it didn't matter what Philip would do.

Then he looked at Anthony and asked, "Then you should know Raymond, why did Earl Gosford die?"

Anthony was silent for a while, "Do you think the old Gosford will attack my wife, so Louisa, who is more beautiful and more vain, can escape his poison?

And combined with the fact that Raymond has been speculating in foreign exchange, and instigating the earl to buy South African currency to speculate.

He should have a copy, and the South African foreign exchange futures contract is about to reach its delivery date.

If the contract cannot be sold, or if someone takes over the contract, it is likely to go bankrupt and even owe a lot of money to the bank. "
