, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Reborn America’s Great Slave Master!
“Master, I have something to tell you!” One day, the maid Marlene suddenly came over and said to Tangning.
“What’s the matter? Tell me!” Tangning asked casually, while she was busy with her own affairs.
I saw Marlene hesitate for a moment, and then she seemed to muster up her courage and said, “Master, I don’t think I saw Mr. Hager that day!”
Hearing this, Tangning stopped the pen in her hand and asked with a frown, “You mean the time Mr. Hager came to the house to look for me before he died?”
Marlene nodded and replied, “That’s right, it was that time!”
“Why do you feel this way?” Tangning asked curiously.
Maid Marlene explained: “It’s very simple, because I saw Mr. Warner’s picture yesterday, and then I realized that the person I saw that day was not the same person at all!”
“Where did you see Mr. Warner’s photo?” Tangning asked.
“I saw a photo of Mr. Cohen and Mr. Warner, the boss, when I went to the clothing store to pick up clothes for Mrs. yesterday. Only then did I realize that I may have misled you, Mr. Sheriff and the master, so…”
Before Marlene could finish her sentence, Tangning interrupted, “Mr. Cohen’s clothing store, right? I’ll go take a look!”
The reason why Tangning had to go to the clothing store again was to verify whether Marlene’s words were true, but after seeing the photo, he was sure that Marlene was not wrong, so he returned home and picked up the drawing board and asked Marlene, ” Can you describe what the Mr. Hager you saw that day looked like?”
Although Marlene’s memory wasn’t particularly clear because it had been a long time and it was just a few glances, but from what she described, it was definitely two people, but for some reason, Tangning always felt that this person was a little familiar. But I can’t remember it for a while.
Tangning then asked Marlene, “Why did you think this person was Mr. Hager at the time?”
“Because he calls himself Mr. Hager!” Marlene replied simply.
Although Tangning was dissatisfied with this answer, she couldn’t refute it, because for a maid like Marlene, it was indeed who the person who came here claimed to be, and that was who she was, unless she knew it from the beginning.
At this time, Marlene added: “And his clothes and temperament look like you are the master. Also, Uncle Rob, the housekeeper, also calls him Mr. Hager, so I thought he was really Mr. Hager. It’s gone!”
Hearing this, Tangning habitually instructed, “Go and call Rob over…” But before he could finish speaking, he realized that Rob had already retired and returned to his hometown, hey, this matter How come it’s so big.
So I had to change my mouth and say, “Go and call Adrian over here!”
After instructing Adrian to go to Rob’s hometown to find him, Tangning asked Heidi while recalling, “Darling, has Mr. Hager been to our house before?”
Heidi recalled for a moment, and then replied somewhat uncertainly: “I don’t think so! Why are you asking this?”
So Tangning repeated the story of Marlene’s mistaken identity to Heidi. Heidi couldn’t help but exclaimed, “Tony, do you mean that someone pretended to be Mr. Hager to come to our house?”
Tangning nodded and replied, “That’s right, that’s what I meant. I recalled it just now, only Mrs. Hager had been to our house before, and I had only brought Adrian to Mr. Hager’s house. It just happened to be the day when the accident happened. Adrian is away on vacation, and the other servants in the family don’t know Mr. Hager, so it’s very possible that this faker took advantage of it.”
“But what’s the point of him doing this?” Heidi asked in confusion.
Tangning thought for a moment, then replied, “It may be to confuse Mr. Hager’s time of death, because when the police found Mr. Hager’s body, they were unable to determine the exact time of death, so they used the evidence provided by our family to infer the time of death. Yes, if it is a fake, then the time of Mr. Hager’s death needs to be re-determined, and maybe this fake is the murderer himself!”
“But how can this impostor be sure that no one else in the family knows Mr. Hager except you when he comes, and he can accurately get out in time before you see him. Doesn’t he think it’s too risky?” Heidi asked again.
“I don’t know about this. Maybe the murderer thinks that even if he fails, it won’t hurt. If he succeeds, it can greatly interfere with the direction of the police’s investigation.” Having said that, Tangning paused for a while, and then said in a low voice: “Another reason is that there may be someone at home who is cooperating with him!”
“You mean we have his accomplices at home?” Heidi couldn’t help exclaiming.
Tangning nodded and replied, “That’s right!”
“But how is this possible? The murderer is going to kill Mr. Hager. Why arrange an accomplice in our house? And I believe that the servants in the family will not do such a thing!” Heidi questioned.
“Don’t be too confident, after all, it’s not like this kind of thing hasn’t happened before, such as Underwood…” Because Underwood was almost a taboo in the family, Tangning stopped at it.
Then he changed the subject and said, “I have to hurry up and tell Sheriff Klein about this. Actually, I think there is one thing the police have done wrong here, which is that they didn’t check Mr. Hager carefully with Rob and Marlene. Appearance, otherwise this loophole will not appear!”
After Tangning came to the police station and repeated these words to Sheriff Klein~www.mtlnovel.com~, she immediately blamed herself, “Oh, I really neglected this point, I just asked a few questions and then left. , really should find a portrait or photograph of Mr. Hager to confirm.”
Then he made inferences: “There may be such omissions in other links, Tony, wait for me, I’ll ask them if they have similar omissions.”
After arranging for his subordinates to investigate and fill in the gaps, Sheriff Klein returned to the office and whispered to Tangning, “Tony, do me a favor, don’t tell anyone about this, because I’m about to be promoted recently. If there are rumors of omissions, then…”
Before Sheriff Klein could finish speaking, Tangning said, “Don’t worry, I understand, I will let Heidi and Marlene keep this matter a secret when I go back, it will definitely not spoil your promotion this time, and If you can solve this case, your promotion progress will be accelerated!”
ps: I watched Catfish’s jokes today, and then I realized that Lao Guo usually only wears the first button when he wears a coat. Qualifications, others can only tie the middle button of the coat first, then tie it down from the middle, and finally tie the top button. There are so many rules behind this…
